View 2 RepliesI've got a couple of drop down lists for languages. I bind them to a language list that comes from a query. Then the fields are also bound to the row in the DB they relate to. I have several panels with the language drop down - each "tied" to a different table in my DB. When I call up different records on the same panel the drop downs immediately "set to the position" of that rows language in the list. But when I call up another panel - tied to another database table - I see that language in the drop down.

I have an ASP.NET form with a cancel button that is supposed to, after confirmation from the user, redirect them to another page. I'm using javascript for this. It works fine in a simple HTML page, but apparently something is interfering with it on the .aspx page. The popup message works perfectly, but clicking "Okay" does not take you to another page. I have tested the if statement and it is working correctly, the only thing it won't do is leave the current page. [code]...

I am trying to automate an application and I need to respond to a prompt that is being issued by the application that I've started. The application is issueing a message and I'm using some api controls to respond so that it doesn't stop but they are ignored. here's the code I'm using and I'm hoping someone will look at it and tell me what's wrong. The odd thing is it works on my laptop (Windows 7 Pro 64 bit) but fails on my desktop maching (same OS).

I did a super simple calculator with ASP.net with five buttons: add, subtract, multiply, divide, clear. There are five separate functions for each button's click event. For example: Sub addfunction(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)If Not IsNumeric(input1.Text) Or Not IsNumeric(input2.Text) Then resultLabel.Text = "You entered an invalid or missing number"
[Code]...
How might I be able to combine all 5 of these functions into one? So for example, all the onclicks will refer to the same function, but will somehow be able to determine which button was clicked? I forget a lot of VB.net from a year.
After creating a project in vb.net how to make a separate file so that by clicking on the file the project should directly execute
View 4 RepliesI'm using Visual Basic Express 2010. I have the prompt, the textbox and the calculate button. For the answer do I have to make a separate label for the answer in seconds and the actual response "That will take (separate label for answer) seconds" I made a click event button and assigned the following as global variables at the start of the form:
Const intSpeed As Integer = 1207
Const intTime As Integer = 3600
Then I made a click event for the button. I don't know what the formula is. Basically the user inputs a distance in the box, the calculate button tells you how long it will take for the vehicle to travel that distance in seconds.
Here's the interface: [URL]
Criteria:
Are We There Yet?
The Thrust SSC, a super fast vehicle tracked at 1207 Km per hour (750 mph) was clocked on the Black Rock desert back in 1977. Build an application that will tell people how many seconds it would take to get to their destination if they were driving the vehicle. Of course this doesn't include having to stop for stop signs, travel through school zones, or slow down for corners.
You need to include the following:
1.) Design the application with a prompt label and textbox to collect the distance from the user.
2.) A calculate time button
3.) The form must have the text property changed to read "Are we there yet?"
4.) The objects must have both the Text property and Name property changed to an appropriate value.
5.) A constant global variable should be used to represent speed of the vehicle.
6.) A constant global variable should be used for seconds (there are 3600 seconds in an hour)
8.) A local Dim variable declaration can be used within the button click to hold the distance value.
7.) Variables should be declared with the most appropriate data types.
8.) Include a "Text Changed" event to reset the time in seconds to a blank value when the user starts entering in a new distance.
9.) Comment code should be included

Isn't it time to make a separate section for Visual Basic 10 users? For example when looking for the MID string function there are a lot of complaints that it is not implemented in VB, whereas in VB 10 it is.Perhaps a good idea to filter out the VB6 items in a VB10 section?
View 14 RepliesSo I found this little morpg. The game is fun but really repetitive. I would like to simplify some of the tasks in the game. I do not know how to start this project. How can I recored arrow keys and then tell the computer to enter the arrow keys? One of the objectives in the game is to run around a farm 2x and scare away any wolfs. So the commands would be "arrow key up" for 30sec and then "arrow key right" for 4 sec and repeat. I have worked with robots in real life for some time. We would fill arrays with such instructions. One of the most fun things to program! But I have no idea how to do this in VB.
