I am trying to make an application with a start button and a stop button on a stop watch program. These are the codes I am using but my seconds on the stop watch don't start.
Public Form Dim intSecond As Integer = 0
Form 1
Private
Dim intSecond As Integer = 0
intSecond +=1
[Code]...
After I write my code and try to run the program, the seconds will not start,
Alright, so I'm still working on the slot machine. I have three timers all independently going for my three "wheels" of the slot machine.
My issue, is that I'm trying to make a Stop button to stop each timer one at a time, and I'm not understanding why this code isn't working. The logic completely makes sense, and the first "wheel" stops when I click the button, however, it doesnt appear to stop the other two timers.
CODE:
I have a simple application that use thread pool to read a file and input the data into a listbox. I want to be able to stop threadpool from running after clicking a stop button. How do I stop threadpool? Here is the code for my application below:
Imports System.Threading
Public Class Form1
Private Delegate Sub StringDelegate(ByVal text As String)

I created a form and have the variable inputs for 4 motor run statements. Then with a start button the script starts and it is surrounded by a for next statement to loop 10 times. It works fine but if i need to stop the execution of the script with a stop button. I put the stop in a new section but of course does not work to do a motor stop. It just causes the exe to not respond till the loop is complete. Just need to be able to stop the Run1_Click button section.
Edit:I do not mind if it finishes the 4 motor run commands and then stops execution of the loop. So need to figure out a way to trigger a stop from a button on the form to stop the cycle. For the future the loop will be a variable integer input so 10 will not be the standard.
Edit::Does a ' Do ' statement sound like the thing to use? If so how and where would I place that? Have a Stop button on the form and it would stop after the 4th motor run command.
#End Region

I have a few routines that they loop forever if they are not interrupted.Selecting any of them sets the "seq" to True.This would leave them in the tight loop to do whatever they do.Its different patterns of LED flashing.I use another button to stop and that makes the "seq" go False.Interesting that I need to click the stop twice to take effect.I can click the stop now and the 2nd click could be after a long time but there is always the 2nd click on Stop that takes effect.

My ToolStripButtons look flat. They are highlighted when pressed, but they don't look like buttons do. I want them to look like they're not pressed in and then press in when click with the mouse. How can I get this effect?
View 3 RepliesI have to create a slot machine. i have 3 picture boxes and i need to know how the program can randomly select from the 7 pictures i have but still create a short delay where there is the effect of spinning. my teacher said that it would be easy to assign each picture a number but i didnt get what he means.
View 4 RepliesI am currently painting a light blue, partly transparent overlay over owner-drawn objects to indicate certain state. It's OK but I thought that it would be even nicer if I could at some sort of glass effect to further establish the idea that the particular object has "something" overlaid over the top of it.
I thought that some glass streaks, for example, in addition to the blue transparency would lend a nice effect.I've Googled around for GDI+ (and others) algorithms to do simple things painting like this but have come up empty. I prefer .NET but can figure out the painting from pseudo-code on up.
Sorry, shoul've also specified that I need to target WinXP and using .NET version 2.0 - So unable to use WPF or Vista/Win7 goodies.
I'm trying to replicate the Gmail Notifier popup.It both fades in (Opacity) and raises from the start bar.
I've managed to do the fade inout using a timer and opacity but how do I:
A) make the form appear to 'pop up'? (I think its height grows via a timer from 0 to it's max?
B) Locate it's start point exactly above the task bar as pictured on all screen resolutionsWindows flavours?

View 3 RepliesI am in the making of creating a database desktop application using VB.NET. I want my UI to have similiarity the same as Microsoft Money. By this, now I want to make all my textbox to behave this way :
flat will have no border, or if it's still if the mouse hover on it, the border will get emphasized.That's all.I recognize that in TextButton, we have FlatAppearance, so we can tweak all Button to behave like this. But the same is not happened for TextField.
I have an image upload facility in my asp.net project, when uploaded a thumbnail of the image is generated and saved to disk. What I would ideally like to do is apply some nice styling effects to this thumbnail image.. similar to the look of the icons on an iPhone.. perhaps a slight gradient, smooth rounded corners, and a border.
View 3 RepliesI have a form that you can type in a four digit code and press enter and will will run some code on a database. The problem occurs when a user click their 4 digit ID number and then click enter, the next user then comes up, types their 4 digit ID on the number pad and when they press enter it runs the code twice (this is due to the fact that the enter button has focus, meaning i intercept the enter, run my code, then the button runs that same code)
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to create a shaped form with an attractive shadow effect by painting progressive alpha blended layers underneath the main visible form area (a background mask color has also been set to allow a shaped form). This is going well, but I have one major problem to resolve - the bottom shadow layer does not appear as the correct transparent shade - it always appears solidly as the background color / transparent mask color for the form.
Why does this bottom shadow layer not show up as transparent, and why is this color being shown when it is set as the transparency key for the form (and so should be invisible anyway)???[URL]..
I have this little application that runs a SQL query works great, now I want to have a Start Button run the and display results then System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(300 * 1000) for 5 min then run again and display results and loop till I buttonstop_click. unsure if the sleep is the best method.

I have been able to successfully place a stopwatch into the worksheets of a grading system I use for speeches. My difficulty is that the sotpwatch stops watching when I begin to keyboard comments or enter numbers that trigger the vlookup's created for general comments. Below is my code. My question, is there code that I need to add that will ensure the timer continues to time until I tell it to stop. The stopwatch I have uses a start button and stop button. Each instance is set for the sheet where it needs to keep time.

View 2 RepliesI am using VB 2010 , I have a loop that takes something like 5 minutes until it's finish. I want to allow the user the option to stop it in the middle or whenever they want. There's a button which starts the loop, and after I click it the loop starts running and the button is sort of "stuck".I saw something called "background work" in the VB Toolbox, can it be a solution to my problem?
View 2 RepliesI have an event I want to do continuously until a button interrupt is pressed.
Here's the pseudo
Click button 1:
Check if button 2 is pressed
If not, do stuff
If so, stop doing stuff
End routine
So what I currently have is this:
Dim randominteger As Integer = 0
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles StartSampleButton.Click

Unfortunately, it's never breaking outside of the first loop. How to get around it?
I am fairly new to VB but really enjoying programming. I'm looking to create a counter that counts to 25 and loops back around again with a button control and another button control to stop it. So I press a button to start and another to stop and I want it to display the number it stopped on. Is this possible? and how do I do it if it is? I can figure out how to display the label and create a simple counter(that doesn't loop), but I'm unsure on the rest.
