I have the following code which is part of a PA Call system: The 'SetPTT' nd 'DisableZones' statements set controls on the form where the code is. The LAPG2Coms.SetZones command starts another project within the solution to control an external controller. What I can't understand is why it executes the LAPG2 statement before SetPTT or DisableZones. The LAPG2 statement for messages is in the PlayMessage Procedure

I would like to know the event order of form which is executed while opening form. I am showing my form using following code and the code in form_load event executes twice. Once when the form variables are initialised and second when form is displayed. I want it to execute once only. form showing code:

I used to write this:
Private Sub Example()
Static CachedPeople As List(Of MyApp.Person)
If CachedPeople Is Nothing Then
[code]....
But then wondered if I could reduce this to:
Private Sub Example()
Static CachedPeople As New List(Of MyApp.Person)
...rest of code...
End Sub
will the "New" bit only be executed once when the function is first executed but in the next call, it will already exist.
Can someone give me a site to a tutorial that will help me write a program that will generate a pattern using do while, if else statements,and do until statements. I have been using google but I can't find anything. I need to generate patterns a certain size 6 by 6 or similar such as something like a checkerboard but where the ^ symbols is there a suppose to be a blank space..

I have a combo box bound to a datasource. I need to change one combo box (of many) to order the items in descending order.I'm guessing I could order the collection in the dataset, but that will mean all my combo boxes will be reordered?
View 2 RepliesI have a databound Datagridview. The DGV is bound to a datatable of a strongly typed DataSet created using the wizard. Is there any way to re order the columns before displaying them eg: the Columns are displayed in the DGV in this other Col4, Col6, Col3, Col1,Col5, Col2
But I want to it to show as Col1, Col2, col3, Col4, Col5, Col6?
I realise that the display order followed the Column order in the database table and by extension, the datatable. I have re-arranged the columns in the Database but the Datatable still retains the old order.
This might not be so 'VB' as it is 'SQL using VB' I have an application with a built in MS Access DB. I have a table that has a column full of integers, I shoot the DB a SQL "order by 'column name' " string and it returns the table ordered by my column of integers.BUT it returns them like this, and I want them like this
0 6
1 5
2 4

How do I get the OrderBY to do a descending list starting with the highest number?
I'm working on the exercise page 73 (VB 2010 in 24 hours). It's basically a form with 2 text boxes, 2 text labels and a command button. It's really simple and uses this loop to cycle through the items, and tell me the name of them in a Messagebox

I have a problem with ensuring no duplicates. I have an Appointments form (frmAppointments) and within it exits 4 date time pickers. The first 2 date time pickers are dedicated to creating an appointment date whilst the other 2 are for the purpose of changing an existing appointment date. When the date and time is entered into either one of the pairs (of date time pickers), the values inside get transferred to 2 corresponding textboxes. The user then clicks Save (btnSave) and the values are saved to sql.
How can I ensure no duplicates (of the date and time) can be created?
I am having a small 'head banging' experience working on one of our DLL products.The problem I am having is that this application is an outlook addin, and as such, does not own its own Message Pump. No problems there, I have a UI class, which starts a thread, and calls Application.Run(new fControlForm)
I use the Application.Run passing a form, rather than an ApplicationContext purely because I want this form to be in charge of displaying other forms: ie, I can use BeginInvoke to ensure that a second, and many more forms are created in the context of the thread that owns the Message Pump.
I however feel this to be quite hackish. I get a form displayed at startup (which I am sure I can hide if I needed to)My question: IS there any way to create some form of Invoke procedure in an applicationContext that uses the Message Pump thread? I have created a class which implements the ISynchronizeInvoke and can Invoke from a thread that it owns, however this is not the same as invoking from the Message Pump owner.
How can I ensure that a user enters data in one text box before being allowed to move on to the next text box Example I have four text boxes the user can enter a grade in. I want to lock the other three box until the user has entered a number in text box 1. Once a valid number has been entered in text box 1, that releases or enables text box 2. Once a valid number has been entered in text box 2, that releases or enables text box 3. And once a valid number is entered in text box 3, that releases or enables text box 4.

I have a screencasting program where it takes 10 screenshots every second and saves it to a temporary directory then through ffmpeg the series of images are compiled into a video format. My problem is that due to the computers processing power or the size of each screenshot and its quality it sometimes takes longer than 100 Milliseconds to create one causing the whole video to be off balance. How can I ensure 100% that 10 Images will be stored?

I've created some classes that will be used to provide data to stored procedures in my database. The varchar parameters in the stored procs have length specifications (e.g. varchar(6) and I'd like to validate the length of all string properties before passing them on to the stored procedures.
Is there a simple, declarative way to do this?
I have two conceptual ideas so far:
Attributes
public class MyDataClass
{
[MaxStringLength = 50]

This seems like a lot of work and will really make my currently-simple classes look pretty ugly, but I suppose it will get the job done. It will also take a lot of copying and pasting to get this right.
I have a WCF service being hosted in a Windows Service (using techniques discussed here) and it works great. I'm now writing a (VB.Net) frontend app that needs to call that service, but I don't want my users having to fiddle around with the services snap-in and starting the service manually. Can I write some code to ensure the Windows Service is started, or start it if it isn't?
Edit: OF course, I can ensure the Service startup is set to automatic, but it doesn't need to be running all the time, and even then the frontend app still needs to be sure the service is running and start it if it isn't.
I need to make sure that the connection to a POS printer is successful before writing data to the database and then printing a receipt. The POSprinter is normally of type BTP 2002NP but may differ. The common thing is that they are all connected via COM-port and NOT usb, so no drivers installed at all on the client. Can I send some kind of "ping" on a COM-port and check if a device is connected and turned on? Additional information, the application is developed in VB.net and Visual Studio 2008
View 2 Replieshow to ensure that a process created via the diagnostics.process class goes away when my app does. My app starts two processes, one runs plink and one runs psftp.

When this happens the psftp process dissapears but the plink process remains left behind. See the code below for how I am creating these processes.

Please take a look at the code below. I was told by the individual that developed itoriginally that the code only adds the rows of data the user entered. In other words,there 5 rows of textboxes. user can enter data into one row or into all 5 rows. If the user enters data into one row of textbox, that's what gets inserted into the db.I made some minor change to the code so that users can tell when a payment is made by check or cash payment.Since I made that change, whether a user enters data into one row or all 5 rows, all 5 rows get inserted into the db.How can I modify this code to ensure only rows entered get inserted?
