I have some VB.NET web forms that have multiple buttons (Submit, logout etc.) If I enter data in a textbox and want to use the submit button, if I actually click on the button it works fine but if I hit ENTER instead it appears the Logout button always takes precedence. How do I control this action as most people hit ENTER rather than actually clicking the button?
View 8 RepliesIs there a better way to make a form with multiple buttons opening different things than having a form that has lots group boxes for each tab. So in the begining each box will be invisible and when you click the button the corresponding group box will become visible. Is there any other way?It will be like a background image and it'll have buttons that will mask it with invisible buttons. when the button is clicked it will open the corresponding group box.

I'm trying to draw multiple radio buttons on my form. I've used this same logic to draw multiple text boxes and for some reason, this doesn't work.
For counter As Integer = 0 To rc - 1
'controller name Radio button and properties.
Dim dynRadio As New RadioButton()
Me.Controls.Add(dynRadio)
[code]....
I have validated that:
rc = 3 and the loop does iterate three times.The values that come back from the db are correct.xAxis and yAxis are placed properly and is the same increment as my text boxes.It's just not giving me three radio buttons for some reason. It only displays the first one.
When loading the buttons to the class I keep getting the 'Null Reference Exception was unhandled' error. How can I fix it? Here is the code...

I have a facebook account that has around 1200 friend request. Obviously I dont wanna go through and click each one. So I figure I would make a App for it. So I have it working, but its going sooooo Slow....I have it, Clicking the first Confirm button then closing IE, Then opening it back up and clicking the next one. I know it would be alot faster if i could keep that instance of IE open and have it go through and click each Confirm Button but I cant figure out away to do it. If I put it in a loop, it will submit the first one, then when it loops for the second time it finds the first one again, and says its disabled. Any Idea of how I can get it to move on to the next Confirm button? Here is the code I got written so far.

View 10 Repliesi am working on an alarm system software, i am required to blink buttons whenever an alert SMS is received by my gsm modem, after checking for its authentication with the database. The buttons represents the individual units of houses that are armed with a hardware whereby whenever an alarm is triggered, the hardware sends a alert SMS which is received by my gsm modem. The unit under alert represented by the button will start blinking to show that its under alert, when clicked, it will stop blinking to show that the alert is acknowledged. But now i am facing a situation whereby when the second alert comes in, the first alert will be overwritten by it, which is not what i wanted, i want it to be like both buttons will be blinking, not overwritten. The buttons are all created when the program is running, with its text referred to the database. I have placed a timer to do all the blinking. The timer will start after the checking for authentication.

I'm just trying to learn alot of the tricks and such so I'm making small programs and games to just get the swing of things.I'm having abit of trouble with this one, currently. I'm tying to create a form with two buttons. Now, I want to be able to press two keys on the keyboard and have one of the two buttons activate So, instead of clicking Button1, I pressed Control + C and it will say "Comment" and instead of clicking Button2, I press Control + U and it will say "Uncomment".

The problem I keep running into is that the only way for the buttons to actually work is if they are already selected (Or, the last one clicked will work but the other will not). Then the keycode will work for them. How do I make this work without having to click on the button prior.

View 5 RepliesUsing VB/VS 2010 and am trying to provide the user with a way to change the color of the control buttons on my main windows form. I'm starting with the button click event that then calls another sub-form (code shown respectively below).
I was testing with DirectCast as I need to deal with a multitude of button controls (i.e., will have more than the two shown below).
I would like to know how to deal with the following:
1. How do I save the BackColor so when the user opens the form for the first time (or any other time thereafter) the color set earlier appears (the default via properties is green).
2. When I click on the button for the first time and change the color it doesn't change until I click the button again.

If the correct response is selected, the examinee gets 1 point, else 0. At the end of the quiz, the examinee can click a button that will add up all the correct responses & display the % correct.

View 13 RepliesI've been searching for the answer for this all over, but I can't seem to find the solution. I have no idea how do this. A code that triggers an event after multiple command buttons are pressed in a certain order. For example: I press Command1, then Command2, then Command8, then Command5, then an event happens. It's kind of similar to entering a code to activate something.
View 4 RepliesI have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

I need to be able to add (specific) special characters to text boxes. Problem is, there are five of them spread across two forms and three tabpages. What I'd like to do is bring up a form when the user presses something like "F2" while the text boxes are focused, then on that form would be a grid of buttons. When the user pushes a button, the character is added to the box. How do I get this form to reference the box that called it without passing a global variable or calling a public function? I tried Form3.Parent.Name, but that always seems to refer to nothing. Also, once this is done how can I get it to just insert a character where the cursor on the calling box is? It probably shouldn't even be on a form either since that will take the focus when it's called (which I don't want)
