I have a CheckBox Question in VB 2005, I will have a bunch of checkBoxes not checked but once I check them I would like to display the check the next time the program is opened. How would I do that?
View 10 RepliesI'm launching an Access ADE, using Tony Toews auto FE program. The AutoFE programs will, if newer version available, copy the latest version of the ADE from the server, then launch it. My code looks like:
Dim stAutoFE As String = "V:Appsautofestartmdb.exe /cmd /inifile: " & """" & "V:AppsAutoFESSP.ini" & """"
Shell(stAutoFE, AppWinStyle.Hide, True)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) ' Time delay
[code]....
I had to put the Sleep delay in, otherwise the GetObject would open the ADE a second time.But I don't know how long the copy from the server will take, so I need to remove that Sleep line and check that the ADE has opened.
I have my program (Student Pad - The Project - Haxaro Freeware) and it has gone fairly large. In my next release, i would like to know how many user approximatly are using it, so when ever a user opens my program for the first time on that computer, it sends me, or my website a report telling me that it was opened on a computer. so if 4,000 people download and open it, i should get 4,000 emails or reports

View 2 RepliesI've got an application which I want to only have 1 open.How would I make it check if the application is already open and only open if it isn't? I've had the idea of using 2 forms, one of which is the proper application and the other which just checks if its running then opens the other form.I would imagine it would check if there's more than 1 of the process name running and if there is close all others?

View 2 RepliesIs there a way to determine whether processes have been opened or closed during a given time frame? I'm working on code that will take an initial copy of your processes list, and then based on a timer, continue to take copies, which will compared to the initial processes list to determine which processes have been opened or closed until the timer ends. I'm capturing the processes list's in an Array list.
Dim processesList As String //Initial processes list
Dim processActivity As String //Opened or Closed processes
Dim processesAtStart As New ArrayList // Initial processes as ArrayList (To Compare)
Dim processesCheck As New ArrayList // Latest processes as ArrayList (To Compare)

I have code which saves DGV contents including check box columns as a comma separated text file. I also have correct code which will take the text file and re-insert it into the DGV at a later time. This all works.When I'm working on the DGV, I have this
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellValueChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellValueChanged
If DataGridView1.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).Name = "Column12" Then[code]....
So that when the check box is true, columns 1 and 3 turn different colours, and when false, go to a yellow colour.However, when I "re-insert" my DGV info from my text file, the check boxes come back correctly - as true and false on the right rows - but columns 1 and 3 don't change colour. I've tried a "DataGridView1.Refresh" option but not getting it to work.The DGV is unbound. I need it to recognise which check boxes are true and update automatically when the information is opened from a text file.
For some reason, every time I hit the red "X" button to close the program. The program closes, but the process is still there. How do I make it so that if I press it, itll end the process too?

View 10 RepliesI'm using Visual Studio 2008 and developing a VB.NET application. I'm having strange lockup problems with my program, but only when Internet explorer 8 is opened.
When I cover my form with another window and then uncover it, I find that it has locked up. My program has no references to IE and the only thing it even has to do with IE is using Process.Start with a web address.
My program works fine and exactly as it should, but only when IE is not opened.
Does anyone know why a program would lock up only while IE is running?
Edit: I've done some digging and I've found the offending thread in my program.
I don't know what starts this thread or what it does, but when I kill it, my program no longer freezes. The thread is one of the CreateApplicationContext threads, here is the last few items in the stack trace of that thread.

Process explorer says my program is using no CPU nor throwing any exceptions while it is hung.
This always happens to me in Visual Basic. Whenever I save a project from one day and open it again using that same VB version the next day, I can never see the form design. But if I click on Debug, I can see the Form design and only use it as if it were a program.

I am trying to create what I am sure is a simple program to add hours to convert UTC time. I want to type in a UTC time and have it convert for every state in Australia. [Code] Now that works fine however when the conversion goes past "midnight" it then shows the date and time. I have tried about 50 different things but cannot get it to remove the date when the converted time passes midnight. [Code] The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is an unknown word starting at index 18.

I am currently working on a program that has several buttons in it lined up. Each button goes to different applications (.exe programs). The program I am making is suppose to be a fullscreen program and won't let you see any of Windows when it's running.
Therefore I want to make a "back" button that always stays on top of any application and when I push it it will take me back to my WindowsForm (startpage of the program).I am also wondering if you can make it so all .exe programs only can run ONCE. So if I press one of the buttons saying "open notepad" I want it to work so it can't open Notepad once again making it two notepads open. Just go back to the first Notepad opened.
I have built up an interface in VB2008 with many textboxs and labels on. When I click "New", I would like to clear all the textboxs and labels, i.e. each with a NULL value. Meanwhile, I also would like to clear all the arrays behind the program, i.e. the arrays which are not shown on the interface but is important for the calculation.The only way I could find out now is to clear the textboxs, labels and arrays one by one. So if there are 100 textboxs, 100 arrays, I have to write 200 lines in total. Obviously, it is not expected. Is there any other quick ways to directly reset everything to the beginning when the interface is just opened?

View 1 RepliesWith a Time value in my program. Basically, I am importing a travel Time from a database e.g. 3:45 so it takes 3 hrs and 45 minutes to get from a to b. I then want to double this - 3:45 * 2 = 7:30, and then want to multiply it by a cost e.g. travel is charged at 25 per hour. so it would be total travel time = 7:30. Travel cost = 25. Total Travel Cost = 7:30 * 25. In the access db, it is stored as a text field, and then imported in vb as a string.
