Make Listbox To Be Used In Multiple Forms?
Apr 3, 2010I am designing a degree audit program for school, and have a listbox where all the classes needed are contained. I have a separate form for each year (Freshman, sophomore, etc.), which also contain listboxes which are empty. The idea is to add the selected class from the first listbox into the empty listbox in the appropriate year form. However, to do this I would like to have the same listbox (the first one with all the classes) appear on each form, but still reflect changes made to it from other listboxes (classes transferred out of it).
To do this, would I need to create a listbox with global properties? Or would it be better to create a global function containing all the classes and have its contents called to the appropriate listbox?
Make A Variable That Is Recognised Through Multiple Forms?
Apr 3, 2011I have a problem with my program. I wanted to know how i can make a global variable like an integer be recognised in any form so in essence linking to two forms together. Also how do I store an integer that has been typed by the user into the textbox? This integer will then be stored in the global variable. I have got two forms, one is for the user to interact with and the other is going to be used for displaying the global variable.

View 1 RepliesMultiple Forms / Make Each Individual Checkbox?
Jan 4, 2011I need to make a program (or if someone wants to make it for me, feel free to do so) that has a starter form with a combobox where you can select different sizes, like 2x2, 4x4, 6x6 and so on. When i then press the button to choose size, a new form would pop up , with 4 different grids of checkboxes, (white, red, green, blue).Do i have to make each form (frm2x2, frm4x4) and make each individual checkbox, or is there some other much greater solution?Because, in the end, i don't feel like naming 576 different checkboxes for just 1 form.
After all that has been made, it would be saved to a text file, with 0 being anything thats unchecked, 1 is white, 2 is red and so on. And it would look something similar to this:

VS 2008 CSV Or XML - Make Data Available To Multiple Forms At The Same Time?
Nov 4, 2010I have used CSV files before for a simple database of about 12,000 items - this was a simple one page form... Now I want to have the same database but with the data available to multiple forms at the same time.. eg.. Form 1 displaying persons 1,2,3,5,7 name, addy, phone etc and form 2 pulling info for persons 2,3,4,8... Is this possible with CSV files?? or even XML?... The only other thing is that I do it all in .NET 2.0....
View 3 RepliesVS 2010 Make Multiple Forms Have The Same OnClosing Event?
Aug 21, 2011how to have all forms have the same on closing event with the exception of one form (Form1). I want the forms to show Form1 when one of the other forms is closed. I know there is a way to do it, I just can't work out how.
My code at the moment assumes that each form will have a boolean declared on it as false that will only turn true if you use a legitimate way off of the page (i.e. a regular button on the form). If you instead click the exit button on the title panel it will find the boolean is false and show Form1.
So the only problem I really have is getting the code to apply to all forms without writing it for all of them.
Application That Has Multiple Front Ends Developed Using Windows Forms / WPF / ASP / Compact Framework Mobile Forms
Apr 9, 2010I have the requirement to create an application that has multiple front ends developed using Windows Forms, WPF, ASP and Compact Framework Mobile Forms.I would like to be able to create a series of obejct representing the business logic and have this logic accessible from the various front ends available. My first thought was to use remoting as I'd like to be able to pass the business objects back and forth between client and server but the compact framework doesn't support remoting and also transferring a full framework business object to a compact framework business object doesn't seem possible.My next thought was to use web services but again the passing of business objects seems to be very hard to accomplish. Without doing this I would have to create individual web methods for each business operation.
Finally my next option is to use sockets and write the whole client/server logic within some classes and expose them to the UI/Business layer. My only problem with this is it is not scaleable should the number of clients increase dramatically whereas using remoting or web services I can host the solution via ASP.Net.Does anybody have an ideas on the best way forward for this or even have any input on how they would write an application that required a windows form, wpf, asp website and mobile device GUI all of which want to use the same business logic?
Forms :: Multiple Forms, Closing Events And Sub Routines?
May 25, 2010I have googled high and low to find an answer to this but I must be searching wrong.I have an application which has a listview displaying some items that are stored in a SQL Compact database. I am using a second form to add new items to this list directly into the database.When the second form closes I want to call the sub in my first form to refresh the list from the database.
How can I get it to fire the form1 sub routine on the close event of form2
Multiple Forms Program Needs To Open Successive Forms Somehow?
Nov 3, 2009i was doing a fair amount of programming many years ago, like 10 it feels like, so I'm sorely not up to date on how my newly downloaded Visual Basic Express expects me to communicate with it.I am writing a program that pulls a cell from a database after the user has gone through several forms to determine which cells they want. When I write it like that, it doesn't sound very efficient, but I've designed it this way for usability.Here's where I have a problem: Should I store the path the user takes in a string, an array, what?
Here's an example:Someone wants baseball stats and trivia. They run my program, main form pops up, they select National League button, the NL Form pops up. Now the way my program is set up right now, is there are two ListBoxes on the form, one is populated, and as the user selects a Team from ListBox1, it jumps to ListBox2. Once they've selected all the teams they want info for, they click a button Next.
What I now need the program to do is show the next form "Team: name" once for each team, and insert the name of the team on the form in the appropriate label which I'll have blank. This form will also do the Listbox thing except the first listbox will populated with Topics like HR Stats, Pitching Stats, Coach History, etc.
Forms :: Maintaining Multiple Forms Positioning?
Jul 26, 2010Launch a dialogue window from the main form, and then another dialogue window from that dialogue window. If you close the second dialogue window and call dispose the main form vanishes under any other open windows. This doesn't happen by closing a dialogue window normally, but I am attempting (rightly or wrongly) to stop memory useage creeping up by disposing of it.
So, the question is - what method can be employed to maintain the position of the windows?
Forms :: Multiple Forms Open And Close
Apr 16, 2009I have two forms frmMain and frmNew, and one module modMain. In modMain I hold public variables which are needed for application. My question is how to open and close those two forms when needed? I ask this because if i set frmMain as startup form, then when closed, application will end, and one of those two forms will always be displayed. Also if I set frmNew as startup form, then when I close this form, application will also end. Is there a way to do this from module or something so my application won't end after closing and opening any of those two forms?
View 2 RepliesForms :: Retaining Data Across Multiple Forms
Sep 8, 2010VB.NET newbie here... I have an vb.net windows application set up. It has multiple forms, about 6 in all. There's a main menu form, and then 5 other forms to collect data. The user will collect data on each form and bounce back and forth between forms. How do I get the forms to retain the data that has been entered into the text boxes and/or other controls on the forms? For example, they might fill out a few textboxes on a form, but then need to go to a different form and fill something out... and then back to the previous form. Right now, when they come back to the form, all the data previously entered in to the text boxes is gone.

View 3 Replies.net - Given A Large Number Of Objects, Create Multiple Forms In Designer For Them Or Use Code To Create The Forms?
Dec 29, 2010If I have a large number of classes, each similar to the other in certain aspects (they all share a common base class, but each does things differently), and I need to create Windows forms for each to allow easy changing of their values through a GUI? Create one matching form for each object in VS' forms designer, Or Use code to create the forms dynamically at runtime.
#2 makes the most sense to me, because a lot of these objects will share very common features of the form, notably "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons. But one object might need to draw a textbox on the form while another might need to draw a combobox. Not to mention, if I want to put icons on the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, I'd have to do this for each copy of the form in designer, and that sounds like it could get out of hand quickly.But is drawing forms through code sane? VS' forms designer is pretty sophisticated and designed to make life easier. Am I wise to consider ignoring its functionality and diving into the trench warfare of forms design through code? Or are there examples of automating form creation based on an existing object's properties?

View 1 RepliesForms For Multiple Resolutions?
Jul 24, 2006How would I go about designing something that will work on many different resolutions? For example, i have my monitor on a very high resolution, and when i work on my projects, the actual controls (buttons, text boxes ,whatnot) are in the top left quarter of my screen, because the program will have to be deployed on 800x600 machines.
Is there anyway to make it so it will stretch and look appropriate on different resolutions?

View 16 RepliesMultiple Forms, Variables And So On?
Oct 24, 2011i would like to say i am a novice programmer, in year 12. I am designing a small game for my HSC and one of my forms is getting very cluttered with controls and code. To resolve this cluttering, i have had the idea to create new forms for some aspects of the game (such as different game modes and so on). However, in order for that to happen i have to drag some variables of the new form to the old form, (these variables would be just booleans or integers to say whether you lost a game or won a game or something that would carry on to the main form.)

Multiple Monitors With Forms?
Jan 16, 2012have a question. The scenario is this Main monitor (17 inch) is used for POS system.Will have at least 2 more monitors (50 inch tvs used for digital menu)I want the main pos program to be able to set what is written there (easy on a form) but have different forms to ALWAYS go onto one of the tvs (they would be plugged in via VGA).
I have read some examples but I havent seen anything with different size monitors.How can i ensure that the main program runs on the 17 inch screen while the 2 forms of the menu will display on tv1 and tv2 and the same tv each time?
Multiple Panels Instead Of Forms?
Mar 3, 2009To save from using several different forms in programs. I'd like to make just a few panels to represent each one. Then when I need to display one I just set it to visible or not visible.
For example, a quiz program. The 1st 10 questions are on one panel, the 2nd 10 are on a 2nd panel. They are both identical except different questions.
The problem is, when I try to put them both on the form, they have to be in different areas or else one will go inside the other. How can I keep several panels on one form without them going inside each other, in other words how can I keep them separate?
Passing Var Multiple Forms
Jan 28, 2010I have a "Open File" menu on form1 that reads the user input data from the selected file, stores them into variables, passes on the var. to my form2 and loads up my form2 with the user input data. My code works But when I close my form2 and button click form1 to open form2, I still see the same input data I want all my text boxes to be blank.
