View 1 RepliesI have a simple desktop application that uses a .NET setup project (.msi file) to perform the installation. On the first installation, everything proceeds in a timely fashion with good feedback for the user.The problem occurs when the user is installing the latest version of the application over an old version on their machine.There is an unacceptably long delay of about 60 to 180 seconds from the time the installer's 'Welcome' dialog [It's not the Welcome dialog, I've removed that from the Start section of the setup project and replaced it with a CheckBox dialog to ask if the user wants a shortcut on the desktop] disappears until the 'Progress' dialog appears. The user sees minute(s) of blank screen and thinks the install has stopped or failed.
In the setup project properties, I've got the 'DetectNewerInstalledVersion' and 'RemovePreviousVersions' properties set to true. So, I believe that while nothing appears to be happening, the installer is actually removing the old version. The 'Progress' dialog does not appear until the new version begins installation.I've been trying to either:
a) Get the 'Progress' dialog to display immediately after the 'Install Icon' dialog disappears
b) Show another dialog while the Uninstall is running to let the user know that the setup is still running and everything is OK.
I have been unsuccessful with both methods. I'm using VS 2008 SP1?
Can I create new dialog results for my dialog forms? And then use them with Form.ShowDialog method?

View 3 RepliesI often use the process of displaying a dialog from a form, with the dialog user input then used to update the main form without any problem. In a new scenerio I launch the main application screen, I then show a login dialog ontop of the main app screen and can launch another dialog from the login if a new user is required. The plan is to update the login dialog (updating a combobox to reflect the addition of a new user) from the new user dialog.
See code below :-
'Update login forms user list as new user added successfully
frmRoomBookingLogin.cboLogin.DataSource = Nothing
frmRoomBookingLogin.txtPassword.Text = "Updating password from dialog"
MessageBox.Show("The password text is " & frmRoomBookingLogin.txtPassword.Text)
[code]....
The messagebox implies the dialog has been updated yet the text does not change. Is it possible to update the dialog when using a setup such as Form -> dialog -> dialog? I'm intrigued as why the dialog does not reflect changes. I have never refreshed/repainted the dialog as never required to in my other examples when updating a form from a dialog and never encountered a problem when using a two tier form setup.
I have an assignment due this week in which I have to make a app that has 5 buttons and a picture box. When each button is clicked it has to show the corresponding picture in the picture box, the fifth button closes the app.
I have the whole form set up the way it should be, but I have no idea how to write the code to make the buttons display the images and close the app.I have the images in a folder within the project folders.
I have yet to be able to find one, the one I found should how to do it using a file opener dialog and a folder browser dialog but that is not what I think my prof wants us to do, as that is more for a picture viewer app that lets the user choose the file of the image they want ot view.
All i want is for the buttons to be linked to specific photos that are part of the application itself and have them open.

View 12 RepliesI have a Dialog that is basically a confirmation dialog on some SQL statements. After the dialog I have an if statement: If frmRelease.ShowDialog() <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel then.My buttons are set as DialogResult = OK and DialogResult = Cancel respectively on the dialog form.
For some reason, sometimes my button set to DialogResult = OK is returning me a DialogResult.Cancel, and causing me to skip a block of cleanup code.

View 7 RepliesHere is what ive got:
a1 = inputbox("YES or NO")
If a1 = "YES" Or a1 = "yes" Then
That's all we need to know. There are a variety of choices people could put in the input box:
YES
YEs
YeS
yES
yes
Yes
yEs
yeS
I don't want to do if a1 = "YES" or a1 = "YEs" or ... etc
Is there some way I can do:
if a1 = allcase."YES" then
Or something along the lines of that?
If I have a low level dll called low.dll. I then create another dll, say my.dll that references low.dll.
Now, if I create an application that references my.dll, I should not have to reference low.dll in the application correct?? This does not seem to be happening. The application will not compile as it cannot see low.dll, even though it does not access it directly.

I want the total sum entered for (Val(InputBox("Enter sales amount:"))) that is lower than 1200 to go in a TextBox2.Text and the total sum higher than 1200 to go in a TextBox3.Text.How should I go about doing that? Is there a way of doing it in the Select Case area?

I want the average above 1200 going in a TextBox5.Text and the average lower than 1200 TextBox6.Text.
I've tried stuff like; "average1 = average1 + average" and "average1 = total1 / subject" and average 1 = total1 / subject1". But none of it appears to be working.
I'm currently using this bit of code to let only Y, N, and Backspace be typed in my textbox: [code] My problem is that when I debug, the "n" has to be capitalized in order for it to show up in my textbox and the "y" has to be lower cased. Is there anyway that I can bypass this to where it doesn't matter wether or not it is upper or lower case?

The last language I programmed in was Visual Basic 6.0.In VB 6.0, if I added menu items, the menu items would reduce the size of the container.For example, if the form had a height of 1000 and I added a menu item then the inside of the form would be 1000 - menu height.In 2010, if I add a MenuStrip control and dock it to the top and then I add another control and dock it to fill, the top part of the other control appears underneath the MenuStrip.I would like to make it so that the other controls I add to the form cannot resize above the lower part of the MenuStrip.

I want to check if this way is correct in finding the Upper and Lower Control limits for a set of data in a data set. I make a 3 demminsional array then find the averages for each hour of each day for a 365 days. Does this work or do I somethign wrong?
When my form first loads, it runs at about 30k CPU, but after about 10 minutes of use, it goes up to (and stays at) about 70k CPU.
What ways can i optimize my code to allow the CPU usage to stay low, or how can i lower it during the running of the program.
My most concerned areas of the CPU are:
1. I have a web browser, and when a user types in a url and presses go or enter, the CPU jumps about 4k:
Private Sub Go_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Go.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate(OldURL.Text)
[Code]....
The second worry is when i open other forms, it boosts the CPU up aswell. the only code for this is:
Form.Show()
I am currently working on a program for a higher or lower card game. I have my game set up and in place, however I am having trouble keeping track of the cards that have already been drawn from the deck. I am only playing with one deck and need to make sure that once a card is drawn it is placed in a discard pile and will not be drawn again. I did not post my code due to other students in my class using this forum for their version of the assignment. If someone would be willing to take a look at my code I can send it to you via private message.
