Create An Application That Has A Menu?
May 20, 2009
I want to create an application, that has a menu. Every menu option represents an action a user can choose. For some actions the user has to input a date and a string. For others the user has to choose from a list, and then some results are presented in a datagridview depending on his selection. Some actions mean that the user has to check some check boxes. etc. So there are quite a few controls needed in this application, and they cannot all be on the screen in the same time (obviously).I don't know how to design this:
-should I make a single form with all the needed controls in it and depending on the action the user selects some become visible and some hidden?
-should I design a form for every action he chooses and the forms become visible or hidden depending on the action the user chooses?

I've search the net in order to create a custom control but nothing I find is worth looking at, The main thing I want to do is create a skinengin via DLL and import it in my vb 2010 then using or creating some sort of skin builder where I can create a full setting file which contains all the details of the customization regarding the Form(Look, Feel and the controls such as a menu), I have used Iriskin and multiple apps doing this for me and when a user installs my application they still recieve a message about buying the registered DLL file, I would like to create it completely from scratch.

I am wanting to create a menu based on items in my MS SQL database i have 3 tables
FormTbl
FormID - Int Eg (1)
FormName - nvarchar(50) Eg (Form1)
[CODE]...................
I can get the form names to be populated in to the menu and can open it my question is how do i set where the menu items will be placed. Eg File with FormHierarch 0 will be the very first one. Exit with FormHierarch 0.1 will be the very first one under File
Private Sub Main_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim menu As New MenuStrip()
Dim dst As DataTable = User.MenuItems(Me.ToolStripStatusLabel1.Text)
[CODE].....................................

I have an application that I'm creating that uses VB6 for the maintenance programs, and visual studio 2005 to create the reports. At work we use reporting services to host the reports, but in my application I want to run the report from a menu within the application, not in reporting services. (A) Is this possible? I think I've read about a report viewer that can be embedded into .net applications. If I create a menu system in .net, that shells to execute the maintenance programs that are from vb6, or fires off the report viewer, does this sound feasible? The application is supposed to run connected to their SQL 2005 server via a VPN; I get blank looks when I ask them if they have reporting services installed...

How do I create an 'edit Menu'? I am trying to delete bookmarks. I have learned that to do so I must put an edit menu symbol on the tool bar and then do an "edit menu / bookmarks / toggle, clear, add, ..." but I can't find an edit menu on the tool bar and have been unsuccessful trying to create one.

i have various options in my app, some complex some not, these 2 save on application exit and reload on application start themes, and layouts. There selected via a comobox each.So onto the question, how does everyone create options menus? With out using a menustrip/toolstrip?
The method i was using , was to have a picture box show a panel when it was clicked on, the panel had all the various options etc on it. This idea worked great, but meant working in design mode was a pain because the panel and everything on it had to be moved round to see the items under it on the form.
So today i decided to see what other ways i can implement a menu, and i changed it so the picturebox/button now opens a dialog, and all the options etc are on that dialog, this works great except options such as the combobox 1 and combobox2 last used setting (text data binding) doesn't load when the application is started, they only load when you go into the options. Which defeats the point, if a users going into the options just to load the settings its useless them been saved.
The time to initialize the dialog (for it to appear and be click able) is 5 - 15 seconds, not alot i know but the 1st method of using a panel it initializes instantly, but then its never really closed just made hidden, so i uses more system resources.So how does every one else implement there options menu?

I've read many articles on how to create transparent labels but it seems to me that my particular case is not covered. Very simply I have a label placed in the upper right part of the form, which in fact is part of the menu strip. The label displays some info to the user but I wish it were transparent. I've tried various methods including
lblAct.Parent = mnuMain '(or Me)
lblAct.BackColor = Color.Transparent
lblAct.BringToFront()
But cant get it to work. How I can make that label in that position transparent?
