Does anybody know where to find a toolbox for Visual Basic 2005 or 2008 that allow to create level, button, display or other special box used on a bridge of a ship? I want to simulate a small bridge of a ship and I need something that allow me to display engine power, rotation speed, level of pressure, compass and so on.

Anyone knows a way to do this both for VS.NET2005 and VS.NET2008?
I found 2 ways:

View 1 RepliesHow to create a group box (You can name it) that looks like vb.net toolbox?
I am talking about a group box that has "+" and "-" sign that enables expanding and shrinking by click it.
I can't seem to figure this out. I basically am trying to write a class, not a usercontrol, that can show up in the ToolBox. I want it to act similar to how a ContextMenuStrip or BindingSource does, in that there is no UI when you throw in on the Form, it goes down to that bottom part (name?).
1) What do you call those types of components?
2) Why won't this test class that I wrote do the same thing?
vb.net Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
<ClassInterfaceAttribute(ClassInterfaceType.AutoDispatch), ComVisibleAttribute(True), _
System.ComponentModel.ToolboxItemAttribute(True), System.ComponentModel.DesignTimeVisible(True)> _
Public Class FilterMenuStrip

View 3 RepliesI'm interested in a description of the step-by-step process for creating a custom control and making it available in the toolbox with vb2008. Just for an example, suppose one wanted to have an array of 9 buttons in a 3x3 pattern already labeled 1-9 as a control usable from the toolbox just as a single button or label etc. is, so that one could drag it from the toolbox to the form or a groupbox.
View 1 RepliesThe particular control I'm trying to figure out is a UserControl. When I design it as a separate DLL, add it to the Toolbox, then drag it onto the form, it shows up. But when I declare the instance in Form_Load & add it to the Forms Controls, it doesn't show up. (Note that I'm dealing with two different UserControls here as what I don't really want to do is create it as a DLL. It's specific to this project & that's where I want it-in this project. I suppose I could create it as a separate project in this solution, but again-that's not what I want to do. I can add a UserControl to this project, but I can't seem to *use* it. Frustrating.)
Dim X As New Class3
X.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(96, 74)
X.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(5, 5)
Me.Controls.Add(X)
Me.Refresh()
Class3 inherits System.Windows.forms.UserControl, and contains a label.OK, found that I can make the UserControl appear by setting the BackColor (X.BackColor=). Doesn't seem like I should need to do that as it's set in Class3, but apparently when I add it to the form it picks up the form's backcolor-which might be the way UserControls work.
But, it still doesn't show the label that's on the UserControl-just a block of color where I placed the UserControl.And now, I might have solved this problem only to raise another. I finally noticed that although Class3 had an InitializeComponent sub it lacked a Sub New-so it never called the InitializeComponent sub.
I added a Sub New that does nothing except call InitializeComponent & now I'm getting the whole thing. I guess now the question is why the Sub New is required for Class3 but not for the DLL? (Or maybe it was created automatically for the DLL but not for Class3? I'll check the hidden code in the DLL project to see if it was created or not.)
I have created a series of custom user controls for a wizard interface that I am making. Each user control represents one step in the wizard and really shouldn't be used outside of the wizard. The thing that is bugging me is that each wizard step user control shows up in the toolbox of components to insert into a form.
Is it possible to hide a user control from the toolbox? Better yet is it possible to hide a user control from other classes not in the same namespace of an assembly? Is this a good approach or should I think of a different approach?
I am now using VB2008 + MS Access 2007 to complete a small applicaiton.I was make use of access 's information to export the information from Access to the vb's database. I had completed the function of search the stock. However, I don't know how to create the chart in Visual Basic 2008 express version. I have downloaded the MS Chart, but I don't know how to make use of it. My objective is creating the chart that can search from month to month. Of course, the data will be updated monthly. My second question is how to build up the query that can search the top value in the Visual Basic. I know how to create in the MS Access. But I want to create the top value that can be change in visual basic, such as sometimes 10,20 or 30. Or I need to create in the MS Access, but not the VB 2008??

View 2 RepliesIn my first application I need to create a multi-level "IF" statement and I am a little lost on how to proceed. The idea is to do figure out an estimate on costs based on the quantity of products being sold. I can do this in Excel, but the VB code escapes me.
So I'll show you in psuedo code what I want to do.
IF comboBoxA = 1 and comboBoxB = 1 then
value X
IF comboBoxA = 2 and comboBoxB = 1 then
value X
If comboBoxA > 3 and comboBoxB > 1 then
(comboxBoxA * costA) + (comboBoxB * costB) = Value X
I have another IF statement that will work off the calculations here. Haven't figured this one out yet, but I haven't gotten there yet in my form.
If Value X > Y Amount then
Offer product Z as a better idea
I have a form with a button that brings up a different form. In some versions of this program (don't ask), the second form is shown non-modally, but in my version it is shown modally. The point of that last statement is that the second form can be either modal or non-modal, so an answer needs to handle either one, but the modal option is more valuable.If form 2 throws an exception that is not handled, the exception is caught somewhere on Form1, though the exact place that it is caught is largely dependent on where the exception was thrown from. The question is this: I need a means to trap all exceptions raised on Form2 or anything called from Form2 such that no exception EVER propagates out of Form2 to be caught in Form1. The reason for this is that Form2 HAS to perform some cleanup for reasons that I have zero control over. That cleanup doesn not absolutely require user input, but it would be good to have some.Is there any event that is fired if a form is exited due to a call stack unwinding as an unhandled exception propagates up the stack?
