I'm creating a program in VS2005 VB.Net somehow like a windows explorer, my problem was on creating a navigation toolbar in my form.
Does anyone know what is the code for back,forward,up one level in navigation toolbar??
Microsoft VB Grade Book. A teacher maintains a database containing two tables-student and grades. The students table has three fields: studentID, lastName, and firstName. The Grades table has four fields: studentID, firstExam, secondExam, and finalExam. At the beginning of the semester, the Students table is filled in completely with a record for each student in a class, and the Grades table has a record for each student that contains only the student's ID number. (Note: The database is contained in the file Gradebook.accdb from the folder CH10Databases.) Write a program that allows the instructor to record and process the grades for the semester. The program should do the following:
A) Use a navigation toolbar to fill the Grades table.
B) After all the grades have been entered, display a DataGridView control showing the name of each student and his or her semester average. The semester average should be calculated as (firstExam + secondExam + 2*finalExam)/4.
I am currently working on building a kiosk, and I have to make the pdf reader part in vb.net. The pdf reader should have following functionalities. 1. It should be able to print the pdf showing by clicking a button saying PRINT instead of the adobe reader print button
2. I must hide the menu bar, navigation bar, etc from the adobe reader AxAcroPDF because it is a touch screen application and we don't want people to be able to get any access to the actual computer.

I am currently trying to create a generic navigation control with a similar style to the outlook navigation bar. I have figured out how I would be able to dynamically create the bottom part where you select the menu option, but I'm struggling to figure out how I would be able to create the top part, which can contain any user control that the developer would want.So basically what I'm trying to figure out is, is there a way to allow for a developer to add controls to a specific area of your user control?
If there is a way of achieving that then if anyone knows how to do this;In ASP.Net you have the login controls and with one of them, you are able to have different views depending on whether the user who is viewing the web page is logged in or not. Is there a way of achieving this in VB.Net for a user control that could be set up so that I could have the developer able to switch the view in the designer to show them the view for when a specific navigation option has been selected.
I have been perusing the internet in search of the best way to accomplish this, but have had no luck. If someone here has experience with Office add-ins, I'm not asking for a solution by any means, just assistance with which direction to take. The software I'm working on is primarily in VB.Net and C#; IDE is VS2008 Here's my scenario:

I'm writing an application that I want to keep status text always on the taskbar. Some programs like Windows Media player create a toolbar that can be added to the taskbar. Is there a way to do this in VB.NET, and if so how ... ?
I can create a notifyicon, and although it can be used to display notifications I need the text information to always be displayed... I could have used different icons to show a change in status in the notifytray but I really need text to display the status.
I have searched and searched how to do this but everything leads back to Appbars (dockable forms) which is not what i need.
I want a toolbar that goes into the taskbar, like WMP, itunes, language toolbar.
Preferably in vbnet, but if its in C# then thats fine.
I'm wondering how I would go about creating a program that once installed was a windows toolbar. What I'm trying to do is similar to the clipboard, but I want to customize it to my own style. I work in a data entry job and many of the bills we enter have similar information that I'd like to be able to enter without repeated typing. I'd like the toolbar to be docked to the top of the screen, and have several buttons on it. Clicking a button, while having a focus in my data entry program, would paste the button's text (or the full text of what the button caption represented) into the selected field. Alternately, if focus between multiple applications is too difficult to try, then clicking the button would highlight the text and copy it to the windows clipboard, so I could then click back into my data entry program and hit ctrl-v. I dont need help on the program itself...just on how to make it as a windows toolbar, if possible.
View 1 RepliesI have been learning VB2008 and have been working a little with the toolstrip. While this question isn't really urgent, I've been thinking down the road about images and image libraries that I would like to build and use in my programs. I am thinking I should set up my own library so that all programs I write will have the same look (at least as often as I want them to).
1) What does everyone use to create images? What programs, features, etc. are important? Eg. I have MSPaint and and old version of CorelDraw but have never really used them to high quality stuff.
2) Are people just using the images provided in VB2008 Pro?
3) What should I consider when working with images for use in Windows Forms programming? Currently I am not doing any web work.
I believe that this is in the correct forum due to it being about creating an interface item, but if I am wrong then let me know and I'll try and bring this thread to the attention of the mods to be moved to a more appropriate forum.

The one thing that I have thought of that could possibly cause a problem is having the capability of knowing when one of the user controls has been clicked, while I haven't figured this out exactly, I believe I should be able to achieve this by having an event for the navigation user control that provides the developer a reference to the control.
While I would hope that I have explained what I'm thinking well, its before my first coffee of the morning so I might have missed out some detail which would help someone to help me if I have then please let me know and I'll provide any details required.Also if what I'm envisioning is Pie in the sky, then let me know and I'll just have to make a base which I would just have to make a more bespoke system.
I am learning VB 2008 newly. I want to develop a students database. I have prepared all the required specifications. I have started using VB2008. I have created the initial form.

How can I navigate my MS Access database using these buttons. I don't want to use .ADO instead I would like to use my own buttons with code (OLEDB).
Basically, I have created a search facility which is housed inside the navigation control on every page. My predecessor set every single page up enclosed in a form for postbacks.
I need these postbacks to continue working however I need the search when submitted to post to go to a separate page and post the data. I tried various methods such as "postbackURL" on the ImageButton but it didn't do anything.
Below is an example of my form code from my navigation.ascx control:
<fieldset>
<div style="height:8px;"></div>
<asp:TextBox Width="116px" CssClass="search-textbox" Text="Search" style="height:

I have two questions concerning navigation in a 'mutlipage' control embedded in a form layout in Excel:
(1) I would like to be able to automatically move from page_1 to page_2 through a closeout button click command on page_1 (i.e. when actions are complete on page 1, page 2 will open without needing to click on the tab). Is this achievable ?
(2) secondly, While realising it is a simple step to set up navigation to another Excel workbook, is it conveniently possible (from a button command in the multipage) to open another directory, e.g. MMC console

View 5 RepliesI have another question (and anticipate that I will have about two more before I'm done with my class project). Here is my issue (and I'll copy and paste my code for clarification). I need to link up the control from the form on either side of the current form that I'm working on so that if I click on the buttons that I'm titling previous and next that I can click on the proper button and either go directly to the previous form or the next form. I was successful in doing this for two earlier forms on this project (with some direction from a couple of helpful people on this forum before), but for some reason, no matter what I details I use the controls do not connect to the previous and next forms.
