I want to draw a histogram when Form2 is loaded, I load Form2 using button of Form1 It didnt work, Form2 is loaded, but no image...i dont know why here's the code

I have a program I've been working on for some time now and I'd like to try to streamline it somewhat. I have a main menu form that has a split panel, in the left panel is a treeview that displays forms you can open and when one is selected, it opens in a child window in the right panel. Each time I open form I called DWNForm, it does a series of dataset loads which are the populating items for a series of listviews.
What I would like to do is have these datasets load once during the mainMenu load and then have the DWNForm be able to access the datasets once it is called from the treeview selection.
I am trying to use a progressbar to show on main form and then finish when next form is loaded, I have got this code.
1. When I click on button, it must open next form, but the next form must only open when the data in my list box has been loaded from Access Databse. When I run my program, it only shows the progressbar and don't open the next form.
Main form code:
Public Class Main
Dim PB As ProgressBar
Private Sub main_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
End Sub
[CODE]............................

I want to hide the main form when it is loaded, but the code above doesn't work. Can anyone show me how to do that?
I am learning VB.NET and as a first task I am creating a login form. I've been trying to link it to another form once a correct username and password are entered. However, despite that I still cant be able to hide it or unload it once the next form is loaded.
Here is the Code
Private Sub OK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OK.Click
If UsernameTextBox.Text = "chris" And PasswordTextBox.Text = "chrispass" Then
Me.Hide()
Form2.Show()
End If
Me.Close()
End Sub
The Form2 appears as coded above but the 'Me.Hide()' manages to hide the login form but then it appears again.
I have a form that contains two datagridview. I need to load the form first or anything that shows a "loading please wait.." form while the two grids load.Basing on your experience what are the ways to do this?
View 1 RepliesSo just to get better at VB, I'm trying to make this application that takes pictures from your clipboard and uploads them. I'm adding a label, that will tell you if there's anything in your clipboard or not, but the problem with that is that I don't know how to make it check the clipboard all the time.I'm still a beginner, so I only know how to make the app do something when a Form has loaded up, or clicked etc., but how do I make it so it checks the clipboard when it has changed? If I can't do it, how do I make it so it checks the clipboard like maybe every second. Do I need to use threads (I'm not sure, because I don't quite fully understand threads).
View 2 RepliesI have created my app to load with a argument
now, what I want to know if it's possible to pass the load argument even if app is loaded
like
app.exe -a = loads a special form on app.exe at load time
and if app.exe is already loaded to load same form if user requests it again from a shortcut or so
How do you check to see if a form is already loaded, ie if it is already loaded bring to the front else load the form.
View 3 RepliesI have a very simple form with a combo box named txtRoomType bound to ROOMCODESBINDINGSOURCE and a DGV bound using ROOMPRICINGBINDINGSOURCE.
Public Class frmShowRoomPricing
Private Sub frmShowRoomPricing_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code]....
When I check the value of txtRoomCode when the form is loaded for a 2nd time it tells me it is blank, but there is a value in it. I think the fault is in the form_load, but I do not know why.
I am designing a form that will create a template of data that will later be loaded into another form.From a menu command "Create New Template" I will need to ask how many Fields will be needed for the new template in an input box. If the user would input say 10, then I need to generate 10 labels, 10 text boxes, & 10 combo boxes. Each group (label, Text Box & Combo Box) on its own row on the form.I also want create the data mapping for each of them at this time.Once I have achieved this then I will add a form that will lookup the template name, and row count given from the above form via the database and load the required rows of items for further data entry.
Since I will have a MAX row limit I thought about designing a form using a Table Layout panel with 25 Rows and 5 columns then doing some sort of .visible true/false for the layout panel row after the user input of row/field quantities.Another question is resizing the form around only the visible rows.
the project i am currently working on has a form in it that has quite a few objects that take a couple of seconds to load. Because of that, if i simply use the .show command, the form shows up, but there are a bunch of blank white boxes where the content is still loading, how can i have the form not become visible until ALL of the contents and images inside are fully loaded?
View 1 RepliesHow could i make sure that only one instance of a child form is loaded in my application.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible in VB .NET to find out if a form is loaded? Also, is it possible to find out if a form is shown at the moment? I think for the second issue it's enough to get the value of the property of the form:
MyForm.Visible
However, I don't know how I could find out if a form is loaded or not.
Is it possible to run a function or to execute a button just after the form was loaded? I mean to execute it just as the form_load subroutine has ended, so the form is already being displayed.
View 2 RepliesMy company's main software package includes a hefty configuration library which loads on startup. This config library includes some mandatory settings which, if not supplied (via command line arguments), cause the entire application to exit.
This has never been an issue for our users, who launch the software via scripts which have the needed command line arguments supplied automatically. But sometimes when debugging our software we developers forget to specify the necessary arguments in Visual Studio's debug options; it's then very annoying to be greeted with the message Config specification invalid -- missing required parameters X, Y, and Z -- shutting down (I'm paraphrasing, of course).[code]...
I am making this program that has a loop that goes to a website and fills in a form within the loop. But first, here is my code thus far
Dim message As String = TextBox3.Text
Dim loopnumber As Integer = TextBox4.Text 'makes the necessary variables
Dim browser As New WebBrowser
Dim url As String
[Code] .....
But what happens is that the loop runs a few times then it errors on the setattribute line (line 19 above) with
NullRefrenceException was unhandled
And I have a feeling that it is not loading the page fully before it tries to fill in the form.

View 1 RepliesI have coded in the older version of VB for years (VB6 and prior) and Recently I just began learning VB 2008. In my current project I made a mistake in a form name frmAuthors and so far I am unable to recover. The problem is that I tried to have the form inherit a class I had created (first mistake). The IDE generated a popup message stating the error and provided the option of changing from inheritance from system.windows.forms to the class I had created. I said yes just to see what would happen (I was bored so I was up for something new) and that's when the form got corrupted.Is there a way to let frmAuthors go back to recognizing itself as a form object and not a member of the object I had created?
View 2 RepliesI have a Parent form that loads a child form and I only want to allow one instance of the child form. I have this on the button to open the form. Stepping through the code with the debugger it "appears" to work OK when the form is open (I say appears because nothing changes) but when the form is closed it doesn't open as I would expect. What am I missing?

in my form_load sub i added a line to enter a new row when the form is loaded by using me.bindingsource.AddNew()Is there anyway i could tell it to only add a new line only if the rows are empty, the table does have a primary key column where its seed is 8000 i dont know if this would make a difference to how you would make it work

View 11 RepliesI have a Main form that has a split container in it. In Panel1 there is a treeview control. Panel2 is initally blank when Main loads. Upon clicking on one of the nodes in the treeview a form will load in panel2 and adjust the location of the controls based on the size of panel2. The controls are all in a panel themselves so that I am only moving a single object.
Moving the controls when the form in panel2 initially loads works great. But if the size of the Main for changes then the only way to get the controls to reposition is to click on the treeview and reload the form in panel 2.Code for the tree.
Code:
Private Sub TreeView1_NodeMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TreeNodeMouseClickEventArgs) Handles TreeView1.NodeMouseClick
Me.SplitContainer1.Panel2.Controls.Clear()
[code]....
I tried to with code in the panel2_resize bit i got an error as soon as I clicked on the treeview as i did not know which form was currently loaded. What would be a method to accomplish repositioning the controls in panel2 regardless of which form is loaded?
