I have created a Windows Forms application in Visual Studio.Net 2008. I have some group boxes on the form in order to section various controls on the page. At the bottom of my form is a group box containing a texbox used for display exception messages. I would like the user to be able to toggle the ability to hide/show this section of the form. Is there a control which allows the show/hide feature of a form?
View 3 RepliesI have a program with which I can open a second form on a beamer, this works perfect, but what I do notice it that on the taskbar (I have windows 7) I see the main icon of the app but also the form that is created.What I would like is that the second icon is not displayed on the taskbar thumbnails, this way I can't close the second form by the X but only by a button on the main app.

View 3 RepliesI have a form that I am creating to document information about computers that I build. I have created the basic layout, what I have is a group box that has many different controls in it (text boxes, combo boxes, additional group boxes etc) What I want to be able to do is have a button that will copy the group box (computer information) and all of its contents and then paste it below the first group box with all of the fields blank or in their default setting; and keep doing this for as many computers as I want to add. Each project I do has a different amount of computers on it so I want this form to be able to handle any amount of computers.
I can't seem to find much on what I want to do, any pointers, direction or idea's
I was able to do this with an excel spreadsheet but all I had to do was reference and select a cell range, scroll down and paste the new section in. This is my code from excell, just as an example of what I did then. But with VB I'm stumped on how to approach this.
Range("U3:AB11").Select
Range("U11").Activate
Application.CutCopyMode = False

I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?
View 7 RepliesI have recently moved from developing in vb.NET 2008 to vb.NET 2010. There is a form in the application that uses an old Ascend Gradient Caption control to visually separate sections of the form. These controls are located on a tab control. The problem isthat the gradient captions seem to be unstable. They appear in odd locations on the tab pages at runtime, and I can't seem to select them in the designer. I can choose them from the combo box on the property page and edit the properties, but they stillbehave erratically. I understand that these are older controls and was wondering if anyone has had this problem and/or could recommend an alternative control
View 1 RepliesI can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.

View 2 RepliesI just created an idle lockout screen for my software (it's financial software, so if the program is inactive for 5 minutes, the login screen appears again).My question is... is there an easy way to hide all the other windows in my program that may be open? So let's say they are in frmData, and they have the dlgOptions screen open, with the dlgOptions_SelectItems dialog open from dlgOptions. There are 2 dialogs open on top of frmData. And, they are all opened with .ShowDialog().So, let's say they have that many windows open, and then leave there computer for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes, the login screen appears. But all that other stuff is in the background.Is there an easy way to "hide" all the other open windows, and just show the login screen, and then once login returns DialogResult.Yes, then show the forms/dialogs again? I could do this by delcaring instances of each form in a main module and doing it this way. But that sounds like a pain in the butt. Also, I don't know If I could hide frmMain while a dialog is open from it.

I have three forms: A, B and C. Upon a button being clicked, A displays B. Similarly, B displays C. Both using the ShowDialog() method.
However when I use the Hide() method (inside a Button Click event) on form C to close it, form B also closes. Why would this be? As far as I can see, it shouldn't be doing this. I certainly didn't write any code to tell it to do that.

UPDATE: I am an idiot. DialogResult was set to Cancel on the button as I'd copy+pasted it from the existing Close button and not realised that property was set

I'm using 2 forms, one as a login screen and one as a main screen. Once the user is done with the login screen, bearing in mind that he'll never use it again, should I simply hide it with 'me.hide' and change to my new form, or is there a better way to do that, maybe do delete it from memory completely or something?
