So here is an example of a program im trying to interact with. I read up on sendmessage and findwindow functions but don't understand exactly how to communicate past finding the window
Im trying to click that selected item in that listbox. First i found the main window hwnd and now im trying to figure how to find the information needed to be able and click that selected item in the listbox.

usually with C#, though the controls I'm using for this project are VB. Usually I work with programming backend robust applications, but of course when I do a simple website for a friend is when I cant figure out the problem. I'm using a VB master page for the site. The "wood" div is supposed to be a background image that repeats dynamically as far down as the page goes, but for some reason it only goes as far as the browser window height. The background-repeat:repeat-y doesnt seem to do anything, so I feel like the problem has to do with the CSS. Here's the master page:

is there any way to find which window has focus on it?
View 9 RepliesIs there an easy way to find out what the active window is within the .NET framework?
I have seen a few methods via google using API calls, but I thought that was what .NET was supposed to eliminate, by giving the programmer a way to get access to everything within the framework?
i am trying to figure out how to go about finding this window's label when the control name is the same as all the other labels on the program.[code]All 3 labels are named the same. The one i am most interested in is a progress % counter (1%, 2%, 3%, etc..)How can i get the value (using a timer of course) from that label without knowing the caption of it at any given time??

How do I make my program know that time is passing and interact with it? Currently I'm trying to use a method like this:
Imports System.Globalization
Private Sub CurrentTime_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CurrentTime.Tick
Dim date_info As DateTimeFormatInfo = _
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat()
ToolStripLabel1.Text = Now.ToString(date_info.ShortTimePattern)
End Sub
That sets the current time to ToolStripLabel1.Text it looks like: 10:25 PM. Then I made another timer, realizing I couldn't interact with Toolstriplabel1.text because the time contains " : and PM", and this timer does this:
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick
TextBox48.Text = Val(ToolStripLabel1.Text)
End Sub
Basically it takes the value of toolstriplabel1 which would be "10" it gives a variable 1-12 in accordance with the current time. Then I have another timer that handles the main process, and in My.settings I have a variable:
My.settings.12hourspassed
So I was going to use My.settings.12hourspassed as a variable such as My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1 - whenever the time (textbox48.text) goes to 12.
Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer.Tick
If Val(TextBox48.Text) = 12 Then My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1
If Val(TextBox48.Text) = 12 Then TextBox48.Text = "1"
End Sub
The problem is that I cant do textbox48.text = "1" because another timer is making it the value of the current time.. So whenever textbox48.text = 12 it constantly does: My.settings.12hourspassed = My.settings.12hourspassed + 1...
I know that this method completely skips an hour and such.. accuracy isnt all that huge. Any way to tick off whenever 12 hours have passed? and if the program is turned off a way to compare the current date with the date the program turned off at to see how much time has passed while the program is off?

I tried to accomplish this via a MailMessage.Headers.Set call, in VB.net. See below:

Dim objSMTPClient As SmtpClient

objSMTPClient = New SmtpClient()

To be clear: I am not doing this with malicious intent. I am working on an e-mail integration component that utilizes both UIDs and a "Last processed" date to locate the first new e-mail to integrate. I want to test cases where multiple e-mails have the exact same date/time - as the e-mail integration module should handle those situations flawlessly. If I could simply fake the date this way, I could send as many e-mails as I wanted that matches a certain date/time, rather than trying to send them with an automated script - hoping they will all be received within the same second.
I have a combo box defined as a drop down list for a numeric field and have possible values under items. One of the values I have is a blank value (at the top of the items list) in case the user needs to leave the value as null. However, when I choose the 'blank' value, it will not let me past that field. I tried changing the 'data source update mode' to 'Never' and it let me past the field but then of course it won't save ANY of the values I choose.Is there any easy way around this without having to change the field to a string? I have several like this.

We have a demo program that was written and compiled in May of 2006, last used successfully during the summer of 2009. This program is stored on the development PC and a laptop, both WinXP PRO.The developement tool was VB 2005 Express Edition.Now we have revisited the demo program since there is a possibility of restarting the project. Today the demo program fails on both machines with the error - Input past end of file.
Unfortunately the original developer is no longer on staff or available to question. This leaves us to wonder if a Windows Update may have broken the once working code. Could this be possible and what update is the culprit?
I am working on tis program that excepts user input and does some mathematical calculations. When the user clicks on the button btnExit, to quit the program, the program saves all the values that were entered and stores them into a text file called values.txt. Then when the user opens the program again, all the values are there. The problem is that when I run the program, sometimes it gives me this error:
EndOfStreamException was unhandled by user code Input Past End of File I don't know what could be the problem. Here is my code to save the values and load the values:Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExit.Click
[Code]...
When I try to comment them out, the program runs fine and I enter the values in. Then when I quit the program, I uncomment these lines and run the program again. It runs fine.and all the values that were entered before, are there. So I have no idea what could be the problem.
I'm trying to make this program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date. This is the layout I've created so far, the two date boxes currently show the system date so even if I change the system date, both those boxes will adjust to show it as well. I want to try and make the system date a box without a drop down arrow and so you cannot edit the box at all. The box below is fine how it is as the user can enter any date they desire. And the text box at the bottom needs to show the difference between the system date and the inputted date.
View 9 RepliesIs it possible to copy a control that is on the form but also runs off th the form because it is bigger than the form and screen? If I have the height and width of an area I want to copy that runs off the form, any way to grab it? The form will not be minimized and will be the focused program. When i click a button I want to do this. Either copy to clipboard or even just save as an image. I can even have the handle to the control if that is needed.
View 1 RepliesI've got a usercontrol that's a simple rectangle with three labels on it. It's essentially triggered to give a caption to an image when the mouse is moved over it. As I feared, adding the control to the form (or any container on the form) restricts drawing the control to the region defined by the container. I tried increasing the region of the form and the container, but it still didn't draw outside the container.
So my question is: Is there a way to make the control display partially inside the container/form and partially outside it, or is there a better object type that will do what I want?

I have a form where a user can choose an election date. One of the most frequent errors users make is entering the incorrect due dates of reports. Therefore, I am attempting to generate the report due dates in the application using the report guidelines. For instance, reports are due 32 and 15 days prior to the election and 30 and 60 days after an election.
I know the following won't work but you get the jest of what I am attempting to do. I am assuming I will need to break down the month, day and year somehow before I subtract or add the days to the date to get the actual report date.

View 3 RepliesI am teaching myself VB while creating a basic application I can use at work. Is there something in VB that will calculate a past and future date from a specific date.

The first report due is due exactly 32 days prior to the election. The 30 day post is due 30 days after the election.
View 2 RepliesI have some experience of using paypal with an asp.net website, however this issue has me really stumped.Root of the problem: You cant embed the html form for the paypal button inside your page form.
Original solution: Originally my website was using multiple aspx pages so I could simply arrange my form tags so that they weren't embedded inside one another. My website now uses a master aspx page which draws in different ascx controls. This means that I do not have the option of arranging the form tags around the page so need a work around.
NB. I have looked all over the place for simple solutions but it is a jungle out there, paypal is a nightmare. I did find something on ghost form which is all in c#.
