1. How do I force the Form to change its title through code? I tried: Me.Name = "New Title" during a button press, but that didn't work.
2. How do I make it so a form cannot be resized by the user at all? ie. they can't drag the sides.
3. I have made it to when I save in my application the status bar displays "Save Successful". How would I make it stay with that text a few seconds before displaying "Running..." instead?
What I can't figure out is how to change the title of a form. Meaning when it opens, at the top (title bar) it will say Form1 for example, how can that be changed?

I have a background image of a green chalkboard and on this board I display my controls that the user interacts with. I have a groupbox that is used with a set of 4 radio buttons, and the group box has text at the top left corner that says "Pick the Generic Name".
This text is in Blue, and is a little difficult to see against the green chalkboard background.
Is there a way to change the color of this text?

View 2 RepliesHi, I have a project that works with a database. It groups al my films per category. I use this code to group everything by category. The categories are chosen in the combobox cboCateogorie.
Private Sub cboCategorie_SelectedIndexChanged_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboCategorie.SelectedIndexChanged
If Not cboCategorie.SelectedValue Is Nothing Then
cboCategorie.DataBindings.Clear()
cboCategorie.DataBindings.Add(New Binding("Text", objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblCategorieen, "CategorieID"))
Dim dtvDVDInhoud As DataView
dtvDVDInhoud = objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblDVDInhoud.DefaultView
dtvDVDInhoud.RowFilter = "CategorieID = " & cboCategorie.SelectedValue.ToString
dtvDVDInhoud.Sort = "DvdID ASC"
objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.DataSource = dtvDVDInhoud
Me.objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.MoveFirst()
End If
End Sub
Now I've made a textbox and a button which I can search with. But I want that my category in the combobox changes when a film is selected with that search. Now I already have this code to search with a joker sign.

objTblDVDInhoudBindingSource.DataSource = dtvZoeken
dtvZoeken.RowFilter = "Titel like '" & txtZoekveld.Text & "*'"
End Sub
Ok, so what I want is the opposite off what I do when I select a category in a combobox. Now I actually select a film and this film also has an ID, namely DvdID and with that I want that the combobox shows the category where the film belongs to.

View 2 RepliesI have a form which I use to read data from a text file and export it to an excel template file. The data it reads is constantly updated so I would like to add a check box to cause the data to be read every 10 seconds. It's set up so the user can either do one quick scan by clicking a button, or they can click the button while also having the check box checked and it will scan every 10 seconds.The problem is, once I check the check box, I can't uncheck it. I have created a greatly simplified version of my original code to demonstrate this concept.

According to the General Naming Conventions the usage of CLR type names (e.g. String, Int16) should be preferred over the usage of language specific type names (string, short). I usually follow this advice. Resharper however seems to use the language specific type names when generating code (eg. when extracting methods or generating foreach loops) which is very annoying.
