Im trying to make a counter/timer but cant get it to work,
i have a timer and a label
ive been trying to get it set to "00:00:00" Hours,Minutes,Seconds
It justs needs to keep counting up each time.
How to make my counter work. I keep feeling like I'm putting it, or maybe just part of it, in the wrong place so I've been moving it all over the place but haven't found anything that works yet. I'll paste my code below and it will be the code that seems to not stop when it reaches the end of my counter. Other ways I've tried it make it stop after one or two, depending on what I did to the code at them time.
Here's what I have at the moment:
Public Class mainForm
Dim guessCounter As Integer
Dim correctAccumulator As Integer
Dim totalAccumulator As Integer
Dim answer As Integer
[Code] ......
i have a timer and i want its calculation will be done on another thread, since the timer tick event start whenever its enable property is set to true i don't see how to force it to work in another thread.

View 1 RepliesI'm currently writing a countdown timer on vb 2005, with the following characteristics: When I press a button and the timer is running, it adds time to the counter, for example, if the time is 2:30 and I press a button, and the period to add is 1:10, the new time would be 4:40. The window is always on top of every other window, and is active even though it doesn't have focus. When the time's up and i press a key, in this case Esc, the application closes, otherwise, it just continues. [Code]

But notice the beveled borders around all the components, and how they separate the different section of the game. How would I go about created that? And what about the digitized timer and mine counter. Are those images too? I'm fairly new to VB programming (windows programming in general).

By the way is not a problem of mouse_event, is the timer that doesn't work
I'm nearly finished building a Black Jack game for college I've just got one small problem that I need some help with. It's probably just something really basic that I'm missing, but I've not been using VB for a very long time.The problem is with counting up the results after each game. I can get the counter to work and displays the results in a text box like so...
dealerCount = dealerCount + 1
txtDealer2.Text = dealerCount
This works fine but I also need an Overall total which holds the overall score and saves it each time the game is loaded. But when I added...
overallDealer = dealerCount
overallDealer = overallDealer + dealerCount
overallDealer = My.Settings.dealerOverall
txtDealOver.Text = overallDealer.ToString
It seems to keep the counter at 1 and it wont add up. Am I missing something real simple?

I have an application that requires data be entered, and after entering, a button is clicked to process that data. Clicking the button works just as it should--the data is processed properly. In constructing a test module, I provide a set of data values, followed by:
btnWhatever.PerformClick()
Nothing happens. I have used this syntax for years, and it has always worked flawlessly. I have triple checked everything else and isolated the problem to the failure of the PerformClick(). The PerformClick() is in a test subroutine that does nothing but fill textboxes and labels with default data, then calls the PerformClick() on the button to begin processing. Again, the button works fine, the data is entered as it should be, but the PerformClick() does not fire the click event.
I have this code sample from a book I'm reading which looks to be incorrect:
Imports System.Diagnostics
Sub Main
Dim pc As New PerformanceCounter("PerfApp", "Clicks", False) 'excepiton here
pc.Increment()
counterLabel.Content = pc.NextValue().ToString()
End Sub
There excepion message I get is: The requested Performance Counter is not a custom counter, it has to be initialized as ReadOnly. I looked for a property to see if I can set it but couldn't find one.
I have a .dll file (Interop.ACTMULTILib.dll) that I use to connect to a PLC. This .dll contains a sub called ReadDeviceBlock2(byval devicename as string, byval size as integer, byref data as short). When I call this method in my main it works fine, if I call it from another method that was called by main it works as well.However, it doesn't work when I call it from my Timer_Elapsed sub? I guess this has to do something with threads but I can't figure it out.
Module Main
Private Timer As New System.Timers.Timer
Private PLC As New ACTMULTILib.ActEasyIF
Private DataSet As new DataSet[code].....
Basically I have 10 .png images.They contain a walk cycle I need to make some kind of loop inside a timer to make them change.
View 2 RepliesThe project is "kWh counter", that is, a simple program that calculates the power usage.The incoming numbers are the Power of the appliance (lightbulb) and the voltage (230/120).The formula is W=P*t that is multiplication of the power and the time it is used.I thought to connect it with a timer and the passing secconds multyply with the power, and, write the ussage on a label.This would be something like a simple digital power counter.Note that the voltage is not necesary.I am from europe where the standards are 230V.
