Duplicate A Form When Running The Application?
Jan 12, 2011I want to make a program just like SitckNote in Win7.
When I click "add" button, another form pops up, just same with the current one. How to do that?

FormA calls DialogB where user cancels DialogB which exits via ForceTermination(), see insert.Caller FormA check for DialogResult not = OK, which it isn't, and I can see this in debug as Abort(3).However, the code continues merrily along its way until I get a 'null reference' error which I'm trying to avoid via Force Termination().This is caused by the user cancelling DialogB, a selection process to get a database (SQL) instance.[code]
View 13 RepliesI have a windows forms application built in VS2005 and migrated to VS2008 that I "inherited" that occasionally will not show some of the objects (i.e. a button or something) when a user runs it. This is sporadic and does not seem to have any notable pattern.Are there any specific types of things I should be looking for that might cause such behavior? I tried looking at available memory and hard disk space issues and that did not seem to have any bearing on the problem.

View 2 RepliesI am writing a web application using .net 3.5 and vs 2008 which allows people to add data to a db via a control panel front end.Objective: Before committing one of the fields to the db i would like the user to answer Yes, No or Cancel to confirm their action. I have tried to implement this with a modal dialog box or message box but the following error appears: Server Error in '/' Application.

View 2 RepliesI have seen this happen before but am not sure how I resolved it in the past. On runtime the controls of my form change from the windows 7/vista format to an older version format as shown in the attached image.

I don't know what I may have clicked on but, in Solution Explorer under My Project, there are now duplicates of Application.Designer.vb under Application.myapp. One is named Application.Designer.vb and the other is named Application1.Designer.vb. If I comment out the code on one of them them build works without errors.
However, if I delete one of them, I get a warning "The custom tool Application.Designer.vb failed while processing the file 'My Project.Application.myapp." but it still builds. If I click on the warning, a messsage window appears with "The last attempt to run the custom tool 'My Project.Application.myapp' failed. Would you like to re-run the custom tool?" If I click NO, the program builds. If I click YES, it adds the duplicate Application1.Designer.vb again the the errors are back.how to eliminate the errors and the warning?
what account for this error message in ls beta 2?'' The last change wasn't successfully persisted.Please shot down the running application.
View 1 RepliesWhich is the best way to store application and user settings of an application running with multiple instances?My problem is that using the vb's "Application Settings" one instance would overwrite the other one.I want to identify each instance with a number passed via command line argument. I could use this number to identify the appropriate settings of the running instance, but I see in a local INI o XML file a better way to handle that.

Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?

View 1 RepliesI have a bound DGV that took a bit of work to get its columns set up. I'd like to show a 1-row version of this identical DGV on a second windows form. Is there a way to programatically place a copy on the second form. I would adjust the height and position of the 1-row version, and create a new binding source on the second form so that I could filter the data.
View 1 RepliesI'm building a code editor app in VB.NET (Framework 4.0) and it opens all ".por" files into individual forms consisting of a MenuBar and TextBox (multi-line).Currently I have 20 forms (all duplicates of the first on I designed) and if there are say 4 ".por" files in a directory, the first four will open up while the others hide.
I think it would be far more efficient by coding a new form For each item in form1's ListView...but I want the next so many to be a copy of the first form I designed since I spent a good bit on it.
I want to create an application which can reset itself quickly and easily (without a function to do so). I thought one way to do this is to duplicate the form in it's original form (variables, etc) from the point it first loaded.This is how I thought it could be done:
1. Click button to restart application.
2. Form in use is duplicated by creating a new form with Dim newForm as new Form.
3. New form contains all properties of the original form at the time it was first created.
4. Original form is removed, and new form is used; thereby 'restarting' the application.
I can't find any simple way to do this without making a function which completely resets every variable and object (there's a fair number of them).
I have one form that needs to act as a template for 4 forms, each with its own set of variables.Do I need to set them up like:
Public frmSlot1, frmSlot2, frmSlot3, frmSlot4 As New frmSlotSetup
Or create an array?
Public frmSlot(3) As frmSlotSetup
This problem should be a no-brainer for anyone that programs daily. I haven't worked in VB.NET in many many months, and all of my reference books are at home. I have to modify a program that I wrote a few years back. I need to add a new form to the project that is very similar to a form already in the project. I figured I would start with the existing form and modify it. I still need the existing form in the project, so I made a copy, renamed it to the new name, then copied it back to the folder in which my project resides. Now, I need to be able to add it to the project, but I'm having trouble figuring out how. So far, I have been able to add just the code without the form. If I try to add the form, it wants to create a new form. .

I am trying to create a small form that will duplicate a users entry for them.On my form i have a text box and two CheckListBox controls and a button. The user should be able enter a value into the text box, and select multiple items from both CheckedListBoxes, when they click the submit button the details will be added to a DataGridView below.
This is an example,The user enters the value Audi A4 into the textbox.
The First Checked Lsit Box is called "Colour" and from the options the user checks 'Red' and 'Blue'.
The second Checked List Box is called "Number of Doors" and from the options the user checks '3' and '5'.
When the User clicks the submit button 4 rows will be added to the DataGridView with all the different combinations, as shown below:
Model Colour No# of Doors
Audi A4 Red 3
Audi A4 Red 5
Audi A4 Blue 3
Audi A4 Blue 5
I am currently using this to populate the DataGridView:

I need to run an external JAR file (which is minecraft) within the window (form) of a VB.NET application, so like having the program in the center and additional text I like around it.
Is this possible, and if so, how?
I have this data in txt file and the data keeps changing all the time.

I would like to read all lines and compare, if the same name and same address is found, which is in the [......], then i need to count it and show the most frequent buyer!should i read it all and put in array, and compare and put the duplicate data and count into another array?
I have a VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008 that I created a specialized addin for. The addin prompts the user to select a database table, takes a template form class's files, copies them to another directory within the project, and renames the form class within the copied files. It then opens the new form and adds controls to it based on the fields in the database table.
The copying of the template form causes the background compiler to give 'duplicate member' errors, such as "Private Sub InitializeComponents(...) has multiple definitions with identical signatures," even though I renamed the files of the new form and the class name within them. Sometimes these errors go away before the new form is opened, but when they stick around the new form doesn't open correctly, and it throws an error instead. I implemented some code to wait until there are zero errors in the error list before trying to open the new form. This has helped sometimes, but for some reason sometimes the errors don't go away at all until the addin is closed.
How to copy the template form and rename the copy without the background compiler ever noticing duplicate members. If that's not possible, then perhaps someone has an alternative?
Here is my code that copies and renames the template form:
Private Sub CreateDataForm(ByVal tableName As String, ByVal displayName As String) ', ByVal subDataForms As IList(Of Object))
Try
Dim dataFormClassName As String = "frm" & MakeValidName(displayName)
Dim dataFormFileName As String = dataFormClassName & cVBSuffix
