View 7 Replies.net - Form.Load Event Not Firing, Form Showing?
Nov 9, 2010I fear that there is something obviously wrong with my code, but I have come across a situation where the Form.Load event is not firing when I create and show my form. The form is not subclassed (as I've seen some problems with that in some searches), and I am not getting any errors thrown when I step through the code in the debugger.
I have a break point set on the IDE-created form load function (which does have the Handles MyBase.Load signature suffix) but the breakpoint is never reached and the form does display and work.The form is passed three arguments in the constructor but the IntializeComponent() function is called before anything else is done.

View 20 RepliesRestore Form In Program?
Dec 15, 2011I have a search page in one form(Search.vb) and another form(Form1.vb) to display the details of selected data from the search form.
I already have back button in Form1.vb which returns to some other form say (Action.vb).
In case of searching data it returns to Form1 to modify the selected data, In this case if i press the back button in Form1.vb it should return to search.vb with the details that i entered for searching.
Is there any way to save and restore the form whenever needed with its details?
MDIChild Form NOT Showing In MDIParent Form?
Oct 31, 2011Why is my MDIChild form not being displayed in my MDIParent form? I want to click a button on form frmStudyResultsFilter which will then display an MDIContainer form frmCalculatedResults (maximized). When frmCalculatedResults is shown I want a small dialog modal form to be in the center of frmCalculatedResults. For some reason frmCalculatedResults will not show on top. Plus I get this error"Form that is not a top-level form cannot be displayed as a modal dialog box. Remove the form from any parent form before calling ShowDialog." Here is my code:
Public Class frmStudyResultsFilter
Private Sub btnCalculated_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculated.Click

Showing Login Form Before Main Form
Aug 18, 2009I'm sure I'm doing my login process for my app in a not so perfect way, but as with lots of things, it works. The issue is to make it work I have to use the very unpopular DoEvents thing. I would like my application to show a login screen before loading my main form. Currently I have a login dialog box with a FormOpen boolean property and an authenticated boolean property. If a user logs in successfully, I hide the login form, set formopen to false, and authenticated to true. If they cancel out, then I do the same and just set the authenticated property to false. If authenticated=false then I end the app, else I show the main form via application.run(MainForm)

Maximize/Restore Form With Message.create And WM_NCLBUTTONDBLCLK?
Mar 19, 2009I am trying to create my own title bar, but left-double-click does not maximize/restore the form; however, double-clicking any of the remaining buttons on my mouse (right, middle, 'forward', and 'back') maximizes/restore the form. This 'feature' is caused by MouseDown event. If the MouseDown event is removed,the DoubleClick event operates as expected.Can both events be used concurrently (at the same time) with out any loss of functionality?

Forms :: Restore A Windows Form Which Is Minimized And Has Lost Focus?
Dec 2, 2009I have created an app which has a timer control which, when activated and meets a certain criteria, launches a second form with an alert for the user to review and action. this works just fine. Except.... when the main app is minimised and has lost focus, instead of launching the second form to a normal windows state it opens and sits in a minimized state itself and just flashes. How can I get the the second form to restore to a normal windows state?I have tried form2.focus and tried the windowsstate=normal etc but I'm still barking up the wrong tree.
View 2 RepliesAnimate The Showing Of A Form?
Apr 19, 2011In a Winform application, I'd like to animate the showing of a form a bit like when an email comes in and the notification window raises slowly from the bottom of the task bar.
I've got a few ideas involving timers and resize but they all seem complicated and/or clumsy so I wonder if anybody could suggest a simple way to do this or some magic function I could use to do it automatically.

Hidden Form Keep Showing
Jul 8, 2009I wrote an application with multiple forms.One form is used to show any kind of messages helpful to the user (frmMessageWindow).The user has the option to not show frmMessage Window.I would like to hide frmMessageWindowbut keep it loaded and continue to add messages to it so they will be available when the user chooses to show the form again.I use frm MessageWindow.Visible = false to hide the form and this works fine.But there is a check box on frmMessageWindow and if I check the value from another form it makes frmMessageWindow visible.
View 2 RepliesText Box Showing What Is Behind The Form
Oct 16, 2010Something annoying suddenly happened with a text box in a self made program in Visual basic 2008. Whenever I try to run the program, this text box shows what is behind the program itself. (For example my desktop background)
Not only that, if I click on it with the mouse, the window which is behind my application will pop up in front.
I tried to replace it with a new text box and a new name, in case I'd been messing around with some wrong properties, but the problem still remained.
Text Showing Up At Top Of A Form?
Nov 15, 2009I don't know why but text that should display in a text box, ALSO appears at the top of the form, where the title would be. Here are pictures of what I mean. The first picture is before the button to display the text is clicked. The title at the top is "Surrogates (20009)". The second picture is after the button is clicked and as you can see the text shows up in both the textbox and at the top.

Controls Not Showing In Form Designer?
Mar 1, 2009Yesterday I installed vs2008, installed SP1 all seems well.I have converted a project (from VS2005), it works fine but....When I try and modify any of the forms none of the controls aer displayed on the form.Additionally I have noticed that each form has a formname.designer.vb file, the top few lines of the code in the designer.vb files are;
<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
Partial Class frmFullMarketView
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
[Code]....
Then my controls are listed. Do I have to copy the code held in the seperate designer.vb file back to the 'formname.vb' file for all my forms?If so, why does VS2008 create all this extra work when converting forms from vs2005?
