View 2 RepliesMay i know how to code to enable users to drag picture into the picturebox and be able to open the picture automatically once the user let go of the mouse click event, but if the user leave up the mouse click button on the main form then a msgbox will pop up saying this is not the correct place to put in the picture and the form will not be able to open the picture.

I'm trying to create a bunch of labels during runtime that will be "inside" a picture box, so when I move them, if their new coordinates are outside the box's dimensions they wont display, or if they're right on the edge of the box only half the label will be visible etc.
I thought label.Parent = picturebox would work but it doesn't seem to do anything, and Google keeps telling me to set the label's container to the picturebox - which sounds right, but maybe it's no longer a VB.NET thing since the Container property seems to be Read Only.
I have already created the provision to allow the user to create and delete the button control at runtime. But now i am stuck at the dragging part. I am planning to let the user to drag the button using the mouse click event and the keyboard (left,right,up and down) key event.
May i know if there is any codes that allow the user to drag the button control around?
the below is my code for the creation and deletion of button controls at runtime.

I am trying to code in .Net to select an area and the area will be where ever in the form, that is not restricted to a control and asusually the area appears like a square by dragging using mouse at runtime on the form and if on clicking on a button for ex "Save" i.e., saving the selected area and when the next time the page loads that particular area should be clickable.Right now i have no idea where to start but if some idea is given it will be more helpful to me to develop some code for this functionality. Does any one give a small idea that how can I do this functionality, so that I can proceed developing code?
View 2 RepliesI have a windows application ( vs2008+sqlserver+vb) with some forms and 2 reports. I deployed this system on machine and made some data entries. Now I want to change both reports with new one and it might possible that I need to change those reports frequently...may be twice in a day due to some reason. So now I just wanna know that is it possible to make a setup with extra directory in which I can just copy n paste my new reports to replace old...I don't want to play with my setup...I just want to replace some files to replace reports...

I do not want to call microsoft word to open in order to see/read/write on my template. I want the word document to be within a form I am creating like a print preview sort off. I am using Word 2007 and VS 2008. I have been using so far automation and calling and interacting with the template but until so far I have to open Microsoft word to open it for me.

I have a userControl11 (either in winform or wpf) which has a ValueChanged custom event. If I put it in client form and in form_load set its value to 100, it will trigger the ValueChanged event. But if I set this value inside the constructor of UserControl1 the custom event won't trigger. How can I force it to do so ?whatever the technical reason, functionally it does make sense. If the object is initializing its value from some sources unknown to the client form and the client form has a textbox bound to this usercontrol value, it is sure convenient that it could refresh its textbox at any time including when the form loads just using one single event handler. Without this the client form has to create another initializer for this bound textbox at form load.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;

View 11 RepliesI am writing a WinForm app on Visual Studio .Net 2005 which will be a rudimentary "unit tester" for various MS Excel 2003 applications...basically, it will ensure the integrity of the VBA code which fires off in the event lifecycle of the workbook.As a test for a "unit test failure," I created a simple workbook which generates a runtime error at the Workbook_Open event in the VBA code (an intentionally placed out-of-index call to an array). I have no problem opening workbooks via the .Net WinForm using the Excel Object library. My problem is that the run-time error is not captured by the WinForm app -- instead, it throws the runtime error directly on the Excel thread which the WinForm app starts.Is there a way for the WinForm app leveraging office interop to catch that excel runtime exception?
I've tried encasing the call in a Try-Catch block using a general Exception a COMException (via the System.Runtime.InteropServices library) catch...I've also tried instantiating the workbook directly using CreateObject(sPath) and instantiating an Excel Application, then using that to open the workbook...all with the same results...instead of the .Net app catching the exception, the runtime error bubbles up directly to the Excel application.Is there any way, either on .Net or the VBA code, for the WinForm app to catch and handle an Excel run-time error?
i have a screen capture running just as a picturebox on a winform updating with a timer... i have it so it shows my race in a game.... now all is running gr8 on my pc... im now looking to make it viewable to someone else thats connected to my chat server i have made a picturebox on the client form and have the capture code in my server im hosting on my pc...
so my question is how and what is the best/quickest way to do so? maybe memorystream? if so how do i go about that? how do i send a image over memory stream? or is there a better way?
i would like to drag a picturebox inside of another picturebox and I think I already made it. the problem is the object I am trying to drag is behind the picturebox ....how to I make it so that it will appear infront of the picture box? also when I drag it out again of the picturebox I would like to restrict it so that dragging out of the picturebox is not anymore possible?

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to create an animated screensaver using a small animated gif, and tiling it over a form in Visual Studio 2010, but I'm having trouble tiling the gif over a PictureBox First, I tried importing the gif as the Form's BackgroundImage, but the gif lost its animation.
Then I went on to importing the gif into a PictureBox, and setting the PictureBox to "Dock in parent container," to make it the same size as the form. The gif is animated inside the picture box, but its not tiled. Is there a property I am missing that can be used to tile an image over a PictureBox or do I need to write some code to tile the image?

View 6 RepliesIm creating a fairly simple game, and when the left key is pressed i need a new picturebox to be created.Heres the code Private Sub frmMain_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown

Now there are no errors in the code apparently, but when the left key is pressed, the picture box isnt appearing. I added the "lblAnswer1.visible = false" just to test the keydown functionality, and that works.
My image is inside the panel, I set up a if-statement for the boundary which it can only be moved. When I tried to run it, it looks crappy when the mouse has panned it outside the boundary. Here is my code for panning:
If (mouse.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Left) Then
Dim mousePosNow As Point = mouse.Location
Dim deltaX As Integer = mousePosNow.X - mouseDowns.X
[Code].....
I have a picturebox inside a panel, the picturebox is long, and the panel is set to allow scrollbars, which it adds. I can scroll the picture at design and runtime, but how do you scroll it programmatically?
Starting with the picture box with the top set to 0, and then doing this... (using any non-zero value as the lY value)
Dim newLocation As New System.Drawing.Point(0, -lY)
[Code]....
So how do i get the value to change (e.g. to scroll the picturebox!)
I want to set the value of x that is the location of the controls inside a selected usercontrol at runtime. i want to set it to be 0 when there is no control on the usercontrol and i want it to be x += control.width. how can i do this, maybe how can i detect that there is a control inside the usercontrol.
