I understand how a usual map maker/editor works. I have one that I have been tweaking with on and off for the past 2 years. It gets xPosition, yPosition, and which tile to place. However, I have been running over the problem I had last time I left it...how to apply a zPosition (to determine which layer a specific tile is on). From what I know the typical map consists of a 2D array of tiles, but not only loading the first array would you load multiple arrays for each layer needed for a particular map?
I have yet to find something that explains how a multi-dimensional/layered map array is supposed to work, or how to load multiple layers at once with transparency to allow for the bottom layers to come through. I don't need any code here, just an opinion if I am thinking about this the right way, and what terms I can look up to find out more.
i want to know how to draw cell or grid in picturebox for icon. im creating a small program that i want to include icon editor, i know how to use bitmap or GDI+ to make icon, but i want to include small icon editor like the one with VS IDE. i want to know if the 32 X 32 icon pixels was generated by 32 rows of pictureboxes and 32 columns of pictureboxes. In a real icon editor you can use different color for each pixel.

I am looking for a way to play the usual MIDI sounds in a VB program. Similar to the beep program (ie console.beep, leading to timer1.start etc.)but instead of an annoying bleep, have a MIDI sound (like a flute, violin, clarinet, etc.). Is this possible in VB 2008?
My software handles multiple operations on files, and I have now finished writing the related functions, using the System.IO classes. I now need to add support for network drives. Using a mapping works very well (although Directory.GetFiles is a bit low, and I don't know why), but I'd now like to be able to deal directly with paths such as \192.168.0.10Shared FolderMyDrive. Is there any way to handle this type of paths other than mounting the drive to an available drive letter, using the newly generated path, and then unmounting?
I tried to update the button text on a form from a backgroundworker.do_work event, and it failed, with the usual cross-thread exception message.However, by pure chance, I also tried to update text in a system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel also from this backgroundworker.do_work event, and it DOES work. Question: why is this? Is it perhaps because theres some kind of implicit shared behaviour with system.windows.form.toolstripstatuslabel?
Im not asking for any code or anything but i was just wondering if you can make a map in notepad and than turn it into a map in Vb.net. (Like if G in notepad = grass. Have VB switch it to the grass picture.)
I'm trying to make a home page for a game i have, i want to be able to push a button on the form and open my game that i made in game maker, what is the code that i need to put behind the button?
How would i create something that would open a choose file dialog, let you click all the files you want(in this case audio files), take the ones you selected and write a windows media player playlist file(you should know but anyways its basically a text file formatted in a specific way with a .wpl extension)[code]...
Is there a way to return only a set number of decimal places when using the mod function? My 'ones' equation seems to be rounding up? (I'm assuming I have the wrong idea about '\')

Is this program very inefficient? Based on the past programs I have written for this class, I would say I've probably done it again. I don't think I have written a single "efficient" program yet. =/

Visual Studio has a utility to make installers for my programs. People will be able to install and run my applications on their own PC's. It is, however, rather limited. For a start, people can't choose where to install. The installer chooses for them. I can't even find where it puts the application.
I've heard there are many 3rd party installer makers. Recommendations, please. What is your favourite, for VB applications? It should be fairly simple to use. I downloaded one, it has a scripting language that looks complex. It might take a while to learn it.It should also be free, or fairly cheap. At least have a free trial period.
generate sql script files from their tables and such.I have been told to make a small program that will take as input a mdb filename, and make Create Table commands from every table the database has (in access field naming format), and make Insert into commands for each line of information for each table.piece of code to cycle a hole database non system tables, read their field properties, and then read all their containing rows?
I am trying to make a gif maker application,this was the idea: I have 5 pictureboxes on the form 1 Final picturebox User adds 2-5 pictures on form and after that it presses a button that starts a timer The timer it's for the final picturebox to like show 1 picture than hide it and show the next.. I dont know the timer code... The code I added till now looks like this:

I have a course work for which I have to make a (as advanced as possible) WYSIWYG web page editor in VB.NET (2010). It should have a visual editor with drag-drop support for several elements such as anchors, images, tables etc, and it should generate HTML based on that structure.
I don't know where to begin though. I have some experience with vb.net, I made a tabbed notepad vaguely following a tutorial, but I don't know how to make this drag-drop thingy in a richtextbox. I've searched for a tutorial, but most of them are just too simple, a text editor with browser control rendering the HTML.
My IT Project is to make CV MAKER that will create CV and will export it to PDF file, could some of you tell me how can i do it using no third party SDK, and how to manage text within PDF file i mean how to do layout, tables, different fonts, etc etc.
So I am supposed to be choosing a final project for my visual basic 2008 class. I cannot help but remember an old high school classmate from web design class who made a program that used the speaker built into the motherboard (or whatever makes the start up beep when you turn computer on) to time the beeps to play simple songs. It was very funny and amusing and I was wondering if anyone had seen something similar or knows how to go about making one?
any1 has any ideas on how to code a patch maker, (binary differential update) so when i run my patch maker, it output a program (*.exe) that will update files on another machine or local machine, assuming that old files to be updated to a new file having the same data in result;
and also the output patcher should be smaller in size (compressed)currently wad i could think of is a very very simple one but totally useless and not efficient and result large file size patch
1. where mine is read both file data 2. is both byte the same ? 3. [if not same ----> write down the marker value in outputfile1 and byte value in outputfile2] 3. [if same ----> do nothing] 4. read byte if available 5. (marker + 1)
the marker value is how many byte have been advanced so with resulting patcher will read those marker values to advance to the file address (which is the position number) and update accordingly to its byte value outputfile1 is marker values, outputfile2 is byte values corresponding to outputfile1 marker value to advance to the byte position
'insert link sheet1.Hyperlinks.Add(sheet1.Range("P1"), "http://http://www.vbforums.com", "") the code of the button (ribbon)
[CODE]...
When I press the button, it connects to the web site. when the sheet1 is selected, it works, but when the sheet2 is selected, not works, why? the path is sheet1,What's wrong?
is the algorithm for VB editor released anywhere? because i'm trying to create my own editor that gives various options like Linking and self defined array functions (see below) such that one edit can update several others in various places, but i do still wish to have the auto formatting VB editor provides us with.an example of a self defined array function (count):we can transform this:
Public Class test Private Shared number_of_methods As Integer = 2 Public Function get_number_of_methods_juz_an_example() As Integer Return number_of_methods
[code]....
well of course instead of the code it would be just click and select (i wrote out the code in <> just to show what's happening)
