View 1 RepliesI registered the hot key Ctrl + s for my application to show and hide a panel using
[DllImport("user32", SetLastError = true)]

Has anyone using VB.NET 2010 been able to create a single instance application? I've followed the MSDN sample but it does not have an Application.xaml file. Converting any C# samples to VB doesn't work as I cannot override the Main sub in Application.xaml (C# calls it App.xaml).
View 2 RepliesI have a VB application that executes an external application, via Shell().
What I want is to be able to have control over the "shortcut properties", if you will (such as icon & title), resulting in the external app being forced to use that specified icon and title for its spot in the taskbar while it is running.
A normal desktop shortcut does this easily (by editing its properties) but I don't know if it's possible to take advantage of that.
I can't display the application name that I've chosen using openFileDialog. In this case, I'm not referring to the FileName where it displays the full path. I just want the last segment of the FileName, which is the targeted application name.[code]...
View 9 RepliesIs it possible to have the title bar of your application be a marquee? The only way I know of to make a marquee currently is this:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Label1.Left = Label1.Left - 10
[CODE]...
All that does is make "Label1" move from right to left across the form.. is having a marquee in the title bar possible?
I followed tutorial here[URL]..The form runs but I cannot fill it Update: There's no error message I just can't enter the field to type anything: it's read-only
Update 2: I ask the gurus on Microsoft Forum, they tried to answer hard, nobody can find out why. Seems beta is very beta Weirdly I did have this problem on a windows 7 PC not on a Windows 2008 pc

I have a database with two tables in it: People and Logs.I have created a Details page that displays Person information and additionally includes the associated logs records. All of this has just been done by adding a standard details page - not custom coding, etc.When a user clicks on the green + to add a row to the Logs for that person I want to autopopulate a few of the columns. To do this I've opened the Log class and added the following:
Private Sub Log_Created()
Me.Create_Date = Date.Now
End Sub
This works great. But I also want to pull in the card number associated with the person. In the end my code should look something like (pseudo):
Private Sub Log_Created()
Me.Create_Date = Date.Now
Me.CardNumber = SelectedPerson.CardNumber
End Sub
However, I'm not sure exactly how to accomplish this in code?
I loaded a Lightswitch program on an XP machine and after load all of the updates it runs fine. I tried to load it on another XP machine with all of the updates loaded and it looks like it installs and it shows up under programs but it looks like it starts to run but then nothing happens, there are no new processes running.
View 1 RepliesI have a Lightswitch application that is running fine, connects to the database and shows the data just fine. I am trying to write another one using the same database but I get the error "Unable to load data". I can't find anything I've done differently with this application. I can connect to the database in the development window and see the data by using the View/Server Explorer and show table data.
