When I used to play wiith VB 5.0 I was able to create an array of comand buttons on the form. This allowed me to have one routine that knew which of many buttonshad been clicked and I could then take specific action based on which button was clicked. I can't see how to do this in VBE 8. Is this possible?
View 11 RepliesI know how to use the default buttons item, but is there any way to achieve the style of multiline buttons (or maybe rather, "clickable text"?) like shown below?
The situation is that I have an interface for the user to select what kind of file he wishes to establish, and there has to be a brief description under the larger, main line of text.
I'm only planning to run this on Windows 7, so I don't need to worry about backwards compatibility with older versions of Windows
Using VB2010, I would like to create an array of buttons and a sub procedure that when I send the index number, I will be able to change the text on the specific button.
Dim myBtn as button={button1, button2, button3}
private sub GetCaption (ByVal x as integer)
myBtn(x).text="OK" 'If x=2 I should execute button3.text="OK"
[code]....
call GetCaption(2) 'Call the sub and change the text on button2 to say OK.How do I make it work?

View 2 RepliesI am trying to build a battleship game. The project is giving me one minor difficulty (so far). I do not know how to create the game board made up of 100 buttons. I can obviously drag and drop 100 buttons onto the form but this lacks a certain style, it would also be a pain. How do I create a form covered with required array of buttons automatically?

View 1 RepliesI have a database, added in data sources. I can manage records with automatically generated database toolbar.I want buttons for Add, Replace, Erase data from Database. So far i've seen some Tutorials but they are most likely for VB6 and also i'm really new on VB at all.
So i've uploaded all my project folder and my access database for you to rewiev it.Also excuse me for my englsih. It's not my native language. And again i'm new on VB, so i can ask dumm questions about basic. I can use some qualty VB 2008 tutorials links too.
I'm at the end of my tether now.I'm trying to build a website which takes its information from an access database. ASP.net seems to be the answer, so I've downloaded Visual Basic Express 2008 and Visual Web Developer Express 2008 and I'm following a tutorial to learn the basics.
I can't seem to get the OleDBConnection and the OleDBCommand functions to come up in my toolbar. I've created a ASP.net Web Application, a Webform and tried "Choose Toolbar Items", where I've ticked the box for both, but they still haven't came up in the toolbox. This is the last step in what has been as steep learning curve for me.
I have both the VB and C# versions of Visual Studio 2008 Express. When I run a console application in either version, instead of the console opening in an old DOS style command window like it does in VS 2005, it actually blacks out both monitors attached to my computer and treats the entire screen real estate as the console.Anyone know how to get the app to run in a small command-type window when I run it? It's like the console is running Full Screen. If I set a break point, switch from the IDE t the console and then hit Alt+Enter it switches to the small window that I want, but I still can't figure out how to make the app start with the console that way.I could post a screenshot but it would look like a big black square...no window, no frame, just the inky blackness of frustration.

View 3 RepliesI need to create a form with radio buttons, text boxes, labels, etc.. This information needs to be pulled from a database. For instance, I have a form that displays information that needs to be inputed to a database, based on what test is being done for a specific product. Each product requires different tests. So each product may or may not have the same information that needs to be inputed..
What I have done is made a database and filled a table with each product and what tests apply. I then call that database after the product has been selected for the tests. It will then fill an array for that products information for what texts boxes and labels need to be shown. I wanna take this further and have it create a form through code and align all the controls to specific spots so that it will look nice. For example I wouldn't wanna create a control and have it be cut out of the form, or have other controls overlapping others.
