View 3 RepliesI'm trying to create a form with a lot of repeated components. I'm making a touch screen control system with a GUI in VB.net. I would like to make it so when a textbox is pressed a form pops up (form1.show()?). This form is basically a number pad. The user can press buttons (0-9) to get the desired integer to appear in a text box in the popup form. When the user presses an "Enter" button, the popup form returns the integer value that was entered to the initial textbox pressed.

i'm setting on error on line where i'm setting the location of x and y. if i remove those lines it works but all the progress bar are shown at same location. Also i want to set the values of progress bar, i was trying this me.controls("Pbar1").value = 100 or PBar1.value = 100 but it doesn't work because in 1st case it doesn't know the control is pbar and in 2nd case it says PBAr1 doesn't exist and won't make the build.

I have a development system and two test systems. My development system is Windows 7 (64 bit). My two test systems are Windows XP (x86) and Windows 7 (x86). I have created a program on the development system mostly in VB.NET 2008 and deployed it. It looks nice on the development system and on my Windows XP system, but when executing the software on my Windows 7 (x86) system, all the form sizes and components somehow grow. To investigate the issue, I moved over the entire project and opened it on the Windows 7 (x86) system to find that the sizes have somehow changed in the designer there as well. I opened up the .Designer.vb files and the sizes there all seem correct. Then I go to the IDE and the sizes are larger than they should be. For example, I will set a form size to 532, 217 on my development PC then it will show up as 709, 267 on the test system. I tried putting in code on my form.load event to set the size to 532, 217 then re-deployed it, but again, it executes and the form is too large.
View 4 RepliesI have a form with about 50 controls on it. labels, check boxes, combo boxes. text boxes and so on. Now I have a image on the back ground of the form and have made the checkbox text with transparent back ground so the picture can show through. the problem is that it is so slow to load. I see each one appearing on the form one by one. I have tried this on multiple machines and it does it on all of them. I have tried making the checkboxes not transparent but it still is slow.
how can I allow the form to load completely before it displays it. This is the initial form that loads and shows up.
Is it possible to make a program with visual basic 2010 that does not use the actual form but instead only uses other components (e.g. Message Box) to form a complete program?
View 2 RepliesI have a lot of repetitive code that references components of my main form. I wanted to create a separate module (correct terminology?) for all this code to be contained. I cut the offending code and pasted it into my new module, changing each label reference, etc to form1.label.click
Form1 was then underlined and I get this message:Handles clause requires WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types.I think I'm headed in the right direction, but what exactly am I looking for? Here is a sampling of the code that I would like to keep in a separate place other than Form1.vb:

I used the "Anchor" options to resize components when i maximize my form using the default system button and all works fine. But if at anytime i double click on the title bar to maximize/restore window it maximizes, but when it's to restore it won't became the original states, it comes like a big window not maximized.
View 1 Repliesi am running into some difficulty with the .NET garbage collector. i have a custom control that i need to dispose and reallocate depending on user interactions. calling ctrl.dispose() and then instantiating a new control accomplishes what i want, with the nasty exception that the garbage collector (at least, i am presuming this is the GC, since this exception will happen on it's own after the application has been idle in the background for several minutes) will then periodically throw an exception: "cannot access disposed object

When deleting multiple files a confirmation message box pops up for each file selected. I would like to have it come up once and ask 'Are you sure you want to send these 'x' files to the recycle bin?' where 'x' is the number of files selected.
How can I make a component that resides in the components tray like the Timer? So that you can place them from the toolbox but they are not visible on the form.

View 5 RepliesI'm quite new to VB Programming and I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 for programming. I'm writing an application that communicates with an Omron PLC via CX-Server Lite which brings some ActiveX plugins for VB. So far I solved a couple of problems and my application "is doing something" already.My question in the end might be really easy. I inserted 3 bitlamps (Omron ActiveX Components) in a form, gave them the size and position I wanted them to have. When I now start my application they show up in the wrong size. It seems as if they would keep there position but they simply have the wrong size and even overlap each others although I have them sorted nicely in Visual Studio.Another effect I have is, sometimes when I move the components around on the Form in Visual Studio they seem to be "behind" the Form. I can't see them anymore but i can highlight and move them.

I can use a slider bar in VB6, but couldn't find any quivalent in VB.net(.Net Framework Components)!! I don't know why I can choose one in COM components, but these requires project generated DLL's to run. I want to distribute just the executable.My questions are:
-Is there any slider bar in VB.Net Framework Components?
-If there is none, Can I use COM component and bundle everything into one Executable? Also is it possible a list of controls in .Net as I find in vb6: url....
