View 5 RepliesWhen building a class library which contains many classes, all classes uses a lot of common constants and functions, what is the best to do:
1- Declare these constants and functions as public in a module.
2- In each class declare constants and functions used by individual class as private.
The first choice is good for easy and fast implementation, but re-using a class in a different project will require importing the module to the other project.The second choice require a lot of copy/paste for code snippet but a class can be re-used in different project easily.

I have a label that is supposed to display a word for 5 seconds and then move down the list in a text file and display the next word.I'm oddly able to make it work in random mode, but not going down the list in order.. random would be ok if used words didn't come up again.

View 14 RepliesI am building a vb.net application with VS2010. The aim of the application is to change sln. files from VS2005/2008 versions into VS2010.I am using a Form with 2 text boxes and 2 buttons. When I click the 1st button it reveals the sln file in the text box. Then i have a 'convert' button that I want to use to 'convert' the file that appears in the first text box. I have come quite far with the source code but am just a bit puzzled as to how i can retrieve the VS2005 sln files and to get the 'convert' button to display the text in the 2nd text box.[code]

I have designed a form with a text box on it, and a command button underneath. The idea is to run this as a sort of stiky notes section.
I want the text box to read rich text into the textbox (C:\\stickynotes.rtf")

here is some code i have so far
Dim fileReader As System.IO.StreamReader
fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader("C:\\stickynotes.rtf")

View 1 RepliesBasically, I want to have a text box that will display text associated with the text input.
For Example:
input : 512
output : TEXAS
or
input : 659
output : ALABAMA
I have heard that it is possible to do this, and I would like to find out a way to. Even if I need a separate text file with the arrays, I would like to get this to work.
How can I convert the following code into VB.Net?
private const UInt32 temp = 0xE6359A60;
I tried the following but it doesn't work.

Const dblAREA As Double = 140125
Dim intLabel As Integer

I made a working program to calculate piza slices, i was told i needed to declare pi and the areas as constants. when i rewrote the program it no longer works. the result keeps coming back as 0.
I am looping through all of the forms in my app, and I am needing to get a value from the form somehow.Example, say if I have the form named "This Form" and somewhere in that form, dont know if you can use the tag property for this or not, but I need to put a word like "Tall" for an external reference to the form.[code]"How do I get another value like the forms tag or something else".

View 2 RepliesI have strMyColor = "Red".I would like to make lblMyLabel.BackColor to be red.Without using a variable the code would be this:
lblMyLabel.BackColor=Color.Red
I tried using the variable like this: lblMyLabel.backcolor="Color." & strMyColor
But the error is that a string can't be converted to System.Draw.Color. I understand that, as the string "Color.Red" is not the same as the VB constant Color.Red.Is there a way I can construct a valid vbConstant from a string?
Hi, i'm trying to use the treeview to display the text of a rtf (rich text file) file when an specific node if clicked.HomeOMGWOOTFor example, if i pick OMG, i want the text of lol.rtf to be displayed on a richtextbox. But somehow i just can't manage to get it... I know to import the text of a .txt file to a textbox, but using the treeview makes it more complicated.This is the code im using right now:
Private Sub TreeView1_NodeMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TreeNodeMouseClickEventArgs) Handles TreeView1.NodeMouseClick
Select Case e.Node.Index
Case 0
[code]....
Another thing is, that i can't import the *.rtf text into a richtextbox and i don't know why.
I mean why? I mean to organize things I often turn modules into classes where all the methods are share.But then I thought, why not organize them into namespace?But then we can't declare constant in namespace.

where i can find out constant value used to control the windows. like i'm using wndproc to disable validation and i use constant value for closing of form and that value is &HF060&

Alright, So i have two forms open. One in a listview and i have another window with a browser control in it. The browser is adding data to the listview but i made it so it hides while doing this using Me.Hide(). I can make it appear if i click the menu item "Show browser" i made.when im on Form1 (the listview) and its doing its thing with the browser window hidden. It keeps making form1 flash. Well not flash but like the browser window is poping to the front (while hidden) causing me not to be able to click on anything on Form1.This happen everytime the web browser navigates somewhere.Making Form1 always on top fixes it, but it also gets on top of other programs like my web browser . I want it to be on top only to the web browser.

View 14 RepliesI currently have a table that has a few hidden text boxes... The text boxes become visible when certain actions are performed.
The table though changes size according to when the textboxes are visible or now. Ex. When the textboxes are visible the table grows, and vice versa.
I save a lot of settings in an INI file as 1 (enabled) and 0 (disabled), all around the project's module i have this check If setting = 1 then ' do somethingEnd If ' OR If setting = 0 then ' do somethingEnd If
My question, is it good for performance to declare public constants to hold 1 & 0 and use them in such above checks instead of using real number?
In general, if i use value like 8, 9, "", "$", etc... in just two different places, should i declare constant for it?
