Pause Execution For Few Seconds And Continue The Loop?
Aug 10, 2011I am creating a small applicaiton for simulating dice roll. To simulate bounces I change the position of the picture randomly. Now to simulate more than one bounce, I used a for loop to continuously change the position of the picture box. But it is not happening as I planned, the form only displays the position of the last loop. I even tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) hoping to show the bounces, but even they show the last loop only.
For bounceCount As Integer = 1 To bounces
bounce(pb_dice1)
bounce(pb_dice2)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000) 'I need to pause here and show the recent change in position then continue after 3 seconds
Next
the bounce method changes the position of the PictureBox.
How can I pause my for loop, display the newly positioned dices, and then continue after 3 seconds?

How To Continue 'For Each...' Loop
Jan 11, 2011I have a 'For Each...' loop in the VB.NET code for one of the pages on my website. There is also a Try/Catch block within this code that currently contains an 'Exit Sub' in the event of an error being trapped. However, what I would actually like to do is to merely exit the current loop value and recommence the loop at the next value in the sequence.
How can I do this?

Oct 29, 2011I have the following problem:
I've got 3 lines
If I click the "next" button
Line 1 shall be highlighted
Then I I click ""next" again
[Code].....
a for i = 1 to 3 to loop within the Button1_click makes i directly 3 of course so line 1 and 2 will not be highlighted.
I am not allowed to use a msgbox in between cause then it would be easy, cause I would wait until "OK" would be pressed...
How can I make this for i = 1 to 3 loop work and highlight the lines 1, 2 and 3, one by one after pressing the "Next" button?

Make Button Unclickable For X Amount Of Time?
Jun 22, 2010I recently created a mail form for my program users to use if they have questions, etc.. Sadly, the mail form is easy to abuse. People can just put "A" as the e-mail and password and go right ahead and send an e-mail to me. This is why I want to add a delay so that users can only open the e-mail form once a day so that I can get a lesser amount of troll-mail. Is there a way I can make it so when a user clicks on the button to call the Mail form, it will make the button unclickable for X amount of time?

Jan 16, 2009I am trying to change the background randomly from a selected list after a certain amount of time. I have the array set-up and I have it picking a random path (ex c:images est.jpg). I found in the registry the background image settings. I tried setting the registry key to the path but it seems like there is more to it than that because it doesn't change it. I also saw where it stored the file and tried changing it but again it doesn't change it. The funny thing is if I go to display properties afterwards it shows the correct image just doesnt set it. If I then click a different image and go back to it then it sets it. How can I make it update the background?
