Design A Routine That Will Allow The User To Search?
Dec 12, 2011
I am new to vb.net and am trying to design a routine that will allow the user to search for a record and return the results in a datagrid. Then double click on a row within the datagrid to view a more detailed form. I have been able to build the search form but am having problems with the double click event.I found a sample application on the Microsoft web site which is doing this on a smaller scale. The sample is built on the Northwind sql database and searches the customer table when you double click a row in the datagrid the following Microsoft code runs and opens a detailed form.

I have a panel2 inside a split container that has several user controls loaded into it. Panel 1 has an exit button and I want to call one of the sub routines that is in one of the user controls loaded into Panel2.
Private Sub btnExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExit.Click
Dim dialogMessage As DialogResult
Dim a As New ucTimeTracker[code]......
This line is giving me trouble "ucTimeTracker.autoWriteFileOnExit()"
I am getting (reference to non-shared member requires an object reference).Basically I want the exit button on frmMain. SplitContainer. Panel1 to call autoWriteFileOnExit() on the user control named ucTimeTracker that is loaded into splitContainer.Panel2

If IsNumeric(Hundreds.Text) Then
HundredsTotal.Text = (CDec(Hundreds.Text) * 100).ToString("##,##0.00")
DollarAmtVar = CDec(HundredsTotal.Text)
[CODE]..
The above code is from a small program I have written. This test is done on about 30 textboxes I am using for the user to enter number.
The following is the sub routine that is called.
Sub ShowError()
MessageBox.Show(BoxName & " must be a number.")
End Sub
Here is what I want to do but it won't work.
BoxName.Select()
This is so I can put the focus on the different boxes that might contain an error.

I am using sockets to send message between computers. I send the messages alright. What I want is when the message "x0x" comes, the client must be closed within 5 minutes. Teh admin can cancel the request by sending message "-xx" as well. The routine that checks for incoming connections and accepts messages uses WHILE TRUE...END WHILE since it must always listen. Once I get a message, I need to fire a timer control or other that fires within 5 minutes. But the program cant leave the WHILE TRUE at all. If i exit it early, the timer fires and the program does get exit. How do I fire the timer or other routine while still the WHILE TRUE routine checks for incomin connections and messages?

is there any way to reference a particular code routine in VB.net external to the current loop/routine?Example:
If Var01 < 5
[Routine A]
Else
[Routine B]
End If
where Routine A and Routine B are code sequences at the end of the entire program -- such as outside of the current sub or class? The idea would be to reference an otherwise repetitive code.

I have a search function in my app which is a groupbox with a textbox that contains the search keyword and a couple of radiobuttons. Do I have to create a keydown event for every single radiobutton and textbox? Or is there a better way? I tried making a keydown event for the groupbox but that didn't work.
If your interested, this is my
Private Sub Search()
Dim textBoxContents As String = txtBoxKeyword.Text
Dim keyword As String = Nothing

I have a sub routine where I pull in information from a database. I want to use variables from this sub routine in another sub routine. I tried making everything public but it doesn't want to be friendly and share.
Dim strEmail as String
Public Sub readDB()
strEmail = "whatever@doohikcy.com"
[Code]....
The readDB would read the database and set the variables and do whatever it needs to do. Then when they submit the form it would e-mail the form to whatever the email address was.

I am developing an application in which I would like to let the users design some forms and decide the fields that are in the form.An example is better than a poor explanation, so let me put the example of Microsoft CRM in which you as end user can define a form, the fields in that form, or customize existing forms by adding or removing fields.

I'm redesigning an old VB6 application into VB.net and there is one thing I'm not sure on the best way to do. In the VB6 application whenever we created a new instance of a component, we would pass in the user details (user name and the like) so we new who was performing the tasks. However, no that I'm redesigning I've created some nice class designs, but I'm having to add in user details into every class and it just looks wrong.
Is there a VB.net way of doing this so my classes can just have class specific details? Some way so that if my classes need to know who is performing a task, they can get the information themselves, rather than having it passed in whenever the objects are created?

This is a related to my last post, but not enough to make sense as a tag on question.I have a collection(of myClass) that is exposed as a public property in a user control.When I add an item to the collection in code I would make the call collection.add(new myClass) and of course the constructor for myClass is called.When I add items to the collection via the design time menu the constructor for myClass is not called.... of it it is called, I can't see any evidence of it.

I'm trying to make a simple User control that houses one collection of a class that I've made. After building the control All works as planned and then randomly when I try to go to the design time interface for the form I placed the control on I get an error page with the following:
To Prevent Possible data loss before loading the designer, the following errors must be resolved:(ignore and continue: which about half the time works and the control shows up and the other part of the time all of the controls on the page are missing)
The one error is the following:Object of type'System.Collections.Generic.List'1[StaticGraphPlot.clsStaticCurveData]' cannot be converted to type System.Collections.Generic.List'1[StaticGraphPlot.clsStaticCurveData]'.

I have created a user control that mimics what a label does. I realize I could have inherited the label control, but I am working on understanding the process. I wish to add items to the control. normally (in the code of my project) would do:
Form1.Label1.Controls.Add(mylabel)
After creating mylabel in the code of course.

I have a UserControl class in a Windows Application project. One of the properties of it is a collection of another class that I have defined. I can't seem to find a good example of how to get the standard collection editor working for it at design time.I got it working using some example code I found to a degree, but the data in my collection doesn't get saved. When I exit the form and open it back up in design time the data isn't there any more.Here is my class:
Public Class Gauge
Inherits Control
Private WithEvents _Captions As New CaptionCollection

I'm trying to hone up on my (beginner) coding skills & I would prefer that the the 'Designer coding window', not the 'Design window', wouldn't interfere with these studies. Sometimes it's there & sometimes it's not. I don't understand it at this point & would prefer it wasn't there. All I need is the 'Design window' & the 'regular coding window'.

I am creating a User Control where I have a property called Items. Items is of type LibraryPanelBarItem Collection (custom class) which contains a collection of LibraryPanelBarItem objects. I would like to be able to add these at design time by using the Collection editor that VS uses for adding things such as treenodes/listviewitems. Ideally I would also be able to declaratively add them to the html syntax. I can get the Items property to show up but I get no intellisense to add the items between the opening and closing tags.

I never got into detailed error processing too much when I played in VBA/VB6 a lot. Mostly then, if you ran into a user error (such as some input of theirs failing a validation test of some kind), you popped a MsgBox() with some error information and the critical (or warning) icon, and safely aborted out of the code
In .NET, my reading basically points to exceptions as the end-all in error handling. It looks to me that if you know a spot of code where a user can screw up, you're supposed to catch it with either try...catch blocks (for things like data conversions), or standard if...the...else constructs for other things, and then throw a new exception if needed.
Isn't throwing an exception essentially a forced crash of a program in a sense (granted, you get the option of continuing)? Or are exceptions geared specifically for things like data conversion errors and other "things that shouldn't happen", and resume use of MsgBox() and friends for minor user screwups?
Consider the case of where you have a TextBox that is only supposed to accept numeric data (or heck, just a specific set of characters). Barring some other trick that lets you restrict that field (let's just assume it's freeform, programatically), it would seem a bit of a waste to throw new exceptions everytime they type in an invalid character, or even if the error checking doesn't happen until they press a submit button (like on a webpage). Popping a MsgBox() seems more sane in that case.
So what's the straight dope on exceptions and throwing new ones on user errors? How about if your program also exposes a programmatic framework? Bad usage of one of the programmatic functions definitely seems like new exception territory to me.

I've got a VB.Net form application that dynamically loads user controls based on which navigation link the user clicks on. I'd like to make it easier to use at Design time by putting a link of some sort to open the User Control at design time. The link would go onto the form in the space where the User Control will be going. This just saves a little time from having to browse through the files to open the correct file.
