Get The User For To Minimize?
Jun 22, 2010
I'm trying to write a program and am having some major issues. I've written a decent program but people are complaining about some of the cosmetic issues. I have very little experience with code (maybe 10 days of frustrating Internet research).
Here A few issues that i have that keep popping up over and over.
I'm writing the program to work through excel. We run Microsoft office 2003 and I'm just getting to VB through excel (by clicking alt+F11).
I'm trying to get the user for to minimize, but there are a lot of commands and properties that for some reason I dont have (.hWnd) (WindState) (Menu Editor) that keep popping up in various VB6 forums.Here's the about info I got from VB:
VB 6.5.1024
Forms3: 6510.500
[edit] I'm trying to do is to get my form to show up on the task bar so that it can be alt+tab to and such.

im trying to code minimizer for my game because i usually talk on instant messangers and i have to go back and forth. In addition it takes a while for me to go in the game after talking to my friend. Because of this i thought it would be easier if i can get a program to minimize it so i can talk and play. (when i mean minimizing i mean making it smaller size) I used search and google and it only shows the forms minimizing.

I am currently working on a application with consists of two AppBars (GUI-wise and client-side). I would like to give the user the option to hide/show both AppBar. I am using the standard app bar code as described, for instance, here:[URl]...how this is possible? It would need to be a function like minimize/maximize for standard windows forms, except I am using AppBar windows (don't ask why, I have inherited the code).

I have the following code to control how a form is shut down. Specifically, when they click the red x at the top of the form. My question is, how do I control the minimize button at the top of the page. I want my forms to minimize to the information bar instead. I know how to send it there if I can capture the minimize event.
Private Sub xmlTest_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
e.Cancel = True '--- will not close form

Im trying to minimize a bordless forum. For some reason this code does not work. It says change it to this;
Private Sub btn_Minimze_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_Minimze.Click
FormWindowState.Minimized()
End Sub
But that gives me a error as well "Error 1 Expression is not a method. C:UsersAdmindocumentsvisual studio 2010ProjectsUOK Radio 2.0UOK Radio 2.0Radio.vb 1125 9 UOK Radio 2.0"This works but their is no taskbar icon to click on to load it back up.
Private Sub btn_Minimze_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_Minimze.Click
Me.Hide()
End Sub

I created an app that allows the user to look up pricing and search for items, to help speed up dealing with customer asking for pricing and what not. The form stays atop all windows at the top of the desktop, and is setup, currently, to shrink down (or up in this case) by double clicking on the title bar; I've disabled the minimize and maximize buttons.
How it is setup now is okay, but not as sleek as I want it to be. Is there any way to minimize the form to just the caption bar, like what happens with a command window; it minimizes to the a title bar above the start menu, but I want it to minimize to the top of the screen, almost blending into the title bar of the other open windows. Right now, the form is out of the clients way when minimized, or shrunk up, but it looks kind of lame, with a thin strip of the gray part the form still showing.

I've looked all over the internet and did a search on Dreamincode.net but I can't find anything on minimizing to the tray for Vb 2008.What I want to achieve is if the user hits the "X" button at the top, the application should minimize to the tray. When I right-click on the icon, a context menu strip should appear.

I'd like to start by saying that simply though searching, DreamInCode has taught me alot about VB.NET. In fact, I would imagine without DIC as a resource, I probably wouldn't have been able to move forward and learn most of what I know now, just because I got stuck on some things here and there.Anyway, I searched around for information regarding how to "capture" a minimize event in VB.NET. I am working on the GUI for an application that I would like to have minimize to the system tray. Currently, instead of accomplishing this with the minimize function, I do it on the FormClosing event like this:
Private Sub MainFrm_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing
'Cancel the attempt.
[code]....
That code works, and upon making the form visible again with Me.Visible = True the form is restored to its original position. However, prior to the form being hidden, the window manager draws a minimize and restore effect before eventually hiding it. Any change to the WindowState _after_ hiding the form does not appear to have any effect, so when the form is unhidden it is still minimized.is there a way to capture Minimize events, and when captured, is it possible to cancel them in a manner similar to what I did with the FormClosing event?
