I am working on a MSDN project from 2007 it calls for a Common Dialog Control but I can not find it. Has this been deprecated and/or is there something to replace it? If not how can I access this in VS 2010 for a VB project?

View 2 RepliesI am looking for a way to modify the default values in windows vista and or 7.
Examples:

Whenever the code invokes the open dialogue box statement of the VB6.0 code, the application gets terminated.It is expected to open the dialogue box to provide the file path. I'm also having MS Office 2007 enterprise edition. If I do not have MS office 2007 enterprise edition installed, then it is working fine without any problem. So any suggestion/remarks to work on MS office 2007 enterprise edition?

i have a vb script that is imbeded in an html page (hta). when i use the common dialog flags = cdlOFNAllowMultiselect the file list is present in the filename object and are separated by a space. however when i use dialog flags = cdlOFNAllowMultiselect Or cdlOFNExplorer the files that i selected on the dialog box, are not present in the filename object. the only thing that's there, is the path to the files. here's the code:
Const cdlOFNAllowMultiselect = 512Const cdlOFNExplorer = 524288Set ObjFSO = CreateObject("UserAccounts.CommonDialog")ObjFSO.Filter = "All Files|*.*"ObjFSO.FilterIndex = 1
ObjFSO.InitialDir = "c:" ObjFSO.Flags = cdlOFNAllowMultiselect or cdlOFNExplorerinitFSO = ObjFSO.ShowOpen selected_files = ObjFso.FileName msgbox selected_files
how can i get the files names?
To simplify things, I have a new VB .NET 2008 Windows Form Application with absolutely no code yet. The only control I have on the form is a stock standard imagelist common control. Using the inbuilt editor for adding images, i've added one single 16x16 jpg image (just to simplify things). If I build and run the application at this point I get the following error.An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Index was outside the bounds of the array. I don't expect to see any images at this point when I 'Run' the application. I just need to work out why I'm getting the error. Later on I'll be referencing the imagelist in another control.

I have a small project that requires me to have a font dialog, a color dialog and a print dialog. It has four text boxes that are formatted based on the font from the dialog and the color from the other dialog. I am to print it all out with the same font and color. I have easily put the font in the right place and have the rest of the print set up, but the DrawString wants Brushes.<color> for it's color. How do I make it the same color as in the text boxes? I am not trying to get you to do my HW for me, but everything I see online is the brushes or shapes... if you could suggest something to look into that would be great, but I doubt my grade would be much affected by my printing everything with Brushes.Black like everyone else in the world seems to be doing...

View 5 RepliesWondering if it is possible. It works on the idea that all files share common code. The program would ideally analyse the source file and compare it to the reference files. It would then find common parts of the code and write it to a rebuild file. At the end the rebuild file and the reference files would then be able to rebuild the source file without it being present.
For Example.
source file code = xxyyzyzyxw
ref file 1 = xyxxzyzxwyy
ref file 2 = zxxwyzzywxx
The program would then analyse these files and make a rebuild file like the following
source(0,1) = ref1(2,3)
source(2,3) = ref1(10,11)
source(4,7) = ref2(5,6) + ref2(5,6)
source(8,9) = ref2(2,3)
Thus you would be able to build the source file using these instructions and the reference files.
I want a dialog box to have FULL overridable control over all other windows open within my program. I have done this with my about box but have forgotten what I have done to make it have FULL control over the program, that the user has to either to click OK or cancel to move on with the program.I'm pretty sure it was a property I changed, but after searching numerous times, I'm am lost as to what makes it behave in that way.
View 2 RepliesI'm switching from an MDI approach to switch between pages to a tabbed dialog control. Is there any way to place a form into tabbed dialog control?I'm guessing not, but the next option (and this was suggested awhile ago by JM) is to make a user control. I have ~ 20 some odd forms and making a new control for all of them could be a pain.
