Delay Or Pause VB Code?

Jan 31, 2006

I am having trouble with an Access form which runs some VB code behind it. The form accepts lots of user inputs and these are then grabbed by my VB code to calculate a result. This all works fine but does take some time for the calculation to complete due to the size of the datasets. Rather than the user having to stare at the same screen and wonder what is happening, I have another form which pops up to tell the user the calculations are in progress. The problem I am having is that this window will not display properly until after the calculation is completed. It seems as though Access cannot handle displayinging my window whilst the calculation is being caried out.

Is there any way to delay the calculation in VB so that my window will display correctly? The calculation can then take place after this. Here is my code:Private Sub Calc_Click()Dim ccombo(11) As IntegerDim Total As IntegerDoCmd.OpenForm "calcsinprog"

I would like some kind of delay or pause here to allow the window to open properly before the calculations below.

ccombo(2) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c2combo.ListIndex)ccombo(3) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c3combo.ListIndex)ccombo(4) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c4combo.ListIndex)ccombo(5) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c5combo.ListIndex)ccombo(6) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c6combo.ListIndex)ccombo(7) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c7combo.ListIndex)ccombo(8) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c8combo.ListIndex)ccombo(9) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c9combo.ListIndex)ccombo(10) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c10combo.ListIndex)ccombo(11) = Me.c2combo.Column(1, Me.c11combo.ListIndex)ccombo(1) = Get_PostCode_Score(Replace(Me.TextBox1, " ", ""))

VS 2010 Pause / Delay Code (can't Use Sleep Function)

Aug 26, 2010

I have another problem with my bot.

[Code]...

After the 7th line I need a pause until a submit button pops up on the screen. The submit button is hidden until the getelementbyid.focus is run. I cant use webbrowser_documentcompleted because the submit only unhides itself, and I cant use Sleep() because that just stalls the whole block.

Set Delay Between Code?

Dec 8, 2006

I would like to enquire how I can set a delay in between chunks of code.For example, after some code which interacts with a server, I am supposed to get a corresponding information from the server before it is appropriate to proceed on to the next part of the code. As the server response is not immediate, therefore an arbitrary delay is needed.What is the proper code format that I need to add?

SendKeys.Send("%{tab}") SendKeys.Send("H") SendKeys.Send("e") SendKeys.Send("l") SendKeys.Send("l") SendKeys.Send("o")

Pause In Code Can't Use Sleep Function?

Jan 4, 2011

"'I'm having an issue sorting out why my code isnt working. When I "step into" it line by line i can get it all to work exactly how I want, however when I actually run the macro i get an subscript error 9. The code basicly sets a .CSV url to a variable "CurrentURL". The code then launches this url which opens a .csv window called table.csv. I want to copy 2 columns off this window and paste it to another document called "MPT_CAPM_v1", then close table.csv. Here is my code the red line is where I believe I'm running into my error.'This macro opens a URL, copies and pastes the price data into the sheet

[Code]...

I think the error may be caused by the fact it takes about 4-5 seconds to open table.csv in excel, and my line of code is trying to select a window that isnt currently open. After I get the error message, table.csv opens up. I've tried Loops & Sleep functions to try to input a delay, but regardless it seems that table.csv will not open until the end of said loop or delay.

Pause Program And Subsequent Code?

Oct 4, 2008

I am not sure how to make my program pause in the middle of execution, waiting for a certain period of time to pass BEFORE the next lines execute. I have already used System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(int) but this pauses the waits but still executes the subsequent code. If I were to:Private Sub Hello()System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(int)MessageBox.Show("Hello")End Sub* Time in milliseconds.This would NOT stop the execution of the MessageBox for int seconds, the program continues to run???How would I pause the code execution where I want, and for the time I want?

Time Delay - Make GUI Program To Delay Before The Next Command

Dec 21, 2009

I know that time delays have been covered before around almost everywhere. however a method that forgoes forcing the GUI to become temporarily non-responsive, is all but a myth, or at least to my findings. i have the need for a GUI program to delay before the next command, however using the current method, detailed following, it causes the desired effect however it dose make it much less polished as when you click anything else on the GUI it goes un-responsive for the directed time. [Code] make a sub called say Tdelay( milseconds as integer) and have it run a loop as many times as the milseconds variable indicates and each time making the thread delay for 1 milsecond and then update the GUI/form in some way, then re-loop.

I tried thread.sleep but I don't want to have the form stop completely in case someone wants to minimize the form. I thought about using a timer to tell it how long it wants to stop and go.

Why The Pause Button And Also The Pause Command Does Not Exist In VB 2010 Express

Mar 8, 2010

1) Why the pause button and also the pause command does not exist in VB 2010 Express?

2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.

Use "System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(15)" As The Delay Code But Freeze The Form

Jul 19, 2011

I've been trying to use "System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(15)" as the delay code but if freeze the form. I used this "Location.Refresh()" where location is the name of the form, but it didn't give me what I need. This code is going to work on a ProgressBar while typing and the value of the progress bar change while typing. The progress bar jumps to the new value and I want it to move. So I thought about puting it in a "For ... Loop" but the whole form freezes.

VS 02/03 .NET + VB6 Web Application Delay?

I am dealing with a web application that includes VB.NET (UI) & VB6 middleware (DLLs).One of our installs, a Win 2003 Server/IIS 6 environment shows a 2 minute delay after the application login page.The application has been added to Trusted Sites & is not in a DMZ. It uses Forms authentication.

I am looking for ideas on what might be causing the delay. The code is difficult to access and I would like to leave that as a last resort. I realize it's not much to go on but I am hoping someone here has run into a similar problem.

C# - Delay The Need To Specify T In Asp.net User Control?

Aug 16, 2011

My dilemma: I have a POCO: "ReportSource" that is generic. I have a user control wrapping up some report building logic. My user control defines a ReportSource property but it will ultimately be the job of the page that calls the user control to assign that ReportSource property. How can I define the property in my user control without specifying a T? Btw, I tried (just for larks) to make the user control generic... That ended badly. public ReportSource<T> ReportSource {get; set;} (Note that I've tagged this as C# and VB.net... C# is my norm, but I'm having to deal w/ legacy.

C# - Sending Emails Without Delay?

Mar 14, 2012

Now there's a user "A" who has 100 followers...now what i want to do is whenever user "A" submits an article in the website all his followers should get an email with the article link...that is okay i can do it.

Problem: Now, there's a submit button on the page which stores the article in the DB and sends email to the followers...as there are many followers it takes a lot of time sending the emails...so the page keeps showing loading msg till all the emails are sent..how can i send all the emails asynchronously ??

i mean after the article has been submitted ...the emails should go automatically to the followers without putting the email sending function in the click event of the button....hope am not confusing you folks.

can i do something like store the article in the DB , redirect to the article page , start sending emails in a batch of 10 per 10 mins automatically...this process should start as soon as an article has been submitted by an user.
