This is just a general question, I need help with something on Visual Basic 2008. I do not know why, but as of late every time I open up a project in Vb it gives me something called an object browser. I try to find my forms so I can work on my program, but I can't find them. Has anyone else had this problem or knows how to fix it? I can't get to my forms!!
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to extend my new WPF Touch Screen Keyboard (DLL) Library, to allow the user to get events from the Touch Screen Object. I'd like to be able to tell the Programmer what Object made the call (or executed the subroutine) that raised the event. Not dissimilar to the Sender as Object event parameters one gets when working with a System Object. Which begs the question, How do I get that information, if I don't ask for it?Is there a way to get this information from some call made in the subroutine about to raise the event?

View 1 RepliesI have a string that contains a slew of text that I'm returning from the server.
I wanted to know if that string can be called on the client-side?
What I did was reader a text file to a string Placed the string into a rich text box created a sub routine and declared a variable "X" to equal the rich textbox and finally called the sub into the web browser but I don't get anything called when I call the sub.

Here is exactly what I am trying to do... I am trying to code my application to navigate to a website (my own) and fill a web form.
The only way that I know to do this using the web browser is to have the information in the document_completed section of the browser. This works great but once I compile the code and setup my application I don't have any way to update my application with new websites.
What I was trying to do is go ahead and code my web browser document_completed with about 5 of my websites. I would need to have the ability to update my application with new sites and the only way I could do this was to create an update and patch my current .exe of the application.
My work around was to try to create a generic sub routine, in the sub routine I would tell the application to navigate to a folder, read each text file in a folder (which would contain the document_completed code for the webbrowser) and then put the code into a string...finally I would call the sub into the webbrowser.
The thinking behind this would that I could add/remove website by just adding/removing the txt files in the folder.
I am in the process of learning this new programming paradigm called OOP (I am a very seasoned structured programmer). In that context I am receiving what I call contradictions in vb.net regarding the instantiation of an object. Given the two lines of code below:
Dim SQLcmd As New SqlCommand
Dim SQLdr As SqlDataReader
The first line is quite simple - SQLcmd is an object - period. It is the second line that is creating the ambiguity. One reference I have read says in order for a class to instantiate an object the key word "new" must be used. But I have also seen examples where SQLdr is also called an object? To add to the ambiguity I have seen class examples where the class was constructed without a new subroutine (a constructor) and called with the key word "new" which I have been informed by vb.net on more than one occasion in doing such that "there are no constructors" in the class. So would someone please tell me - Is SQLdr an object and if so is it by inheritance (the other escape path) or what; and lastly am I correct in my understanding that in order to use the key word "new" there must be a "new" subroutine/function/constructor in the class.

View 5 RepliesFor reasons that are beyond my control, I have three Projects. Projects A and B reference project C. Project A references project B so that it can open a large form in project B. I now need to open that large form from project C, but VB won't allow me to add a reference from C to B because that would create a circular dependency. I found a way around it, though. I created a Timer in A, and when I opened C from A, I passed in that timer. When the user performs a certain action, I enable the Timer from A, and this causes C to open B for me.
View 2 RepliesI've noticed that when you click on a web page in Windows Explorer, or open a file in general, and the default application to open it is internet explorer, ie opens and opens the file. However, when I tried this on my Web Browser it opened, but ignored the file and went on its usual routine. How can I get my Web Browser to open and open the file that was clicked on in explorer?

EDIT: Removed poll, link to zip file containing only an exe, and renamed topic from "Question..." to something that is actually useful. Please give your topics titles which briefly describe the problem you're having.
i was wondering if it possible to have a condition where lets say you have a column in the datatable called amount and a textbox acting as the filter called say maxamount to set it so the rowfilter when filtering the table will sum the number in the amount column until the number in maxamount is met, then stop and only return the rows where the total sum of the amount column is equal or less than the maxamount value, so i guess if the next row takes us over the maxamount it discards this row and returns the rows previous to it. is this possible using datagridview rowfilter or should i be loooking elsewhere to achieve this?
