Pause Execution For Few Seconds And Continue The Loop?
Aug 10, 2011
I am creating a small applicaiton for simulating dice roll. To simulate bounces I change the position of the picture randomly. Now to simulate more than one bounce, I used a for loop to continuously change the position of the picture box. But it is not happening as I planned, the form only displays the position of the last loop. I even tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) hoping to show the bounces, but even they show the last loop only.
For bounceCount As Integer = 1 To bounces
bounce(pb_dice1)
bounce(pb_dice2)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000) 'I need to pause here and show the recent change in position then continue after 3 seconds
Next
the bounce method changes the position of the PictureBox.
How can I pause my for loop, display the newly positioned dices, and then continue after 3 seconds?

Right now in my app I have a Pause and a Continue button, basically I enable/disable the controls on the form. Is there a better way to handle this.
Is there a way to lock the cursor in the control that it is in when the Pause button is clicked and then release it when the Continue botton is clicked?

My Application (Vb.net, Access 2003/2007) is to scan Access Database files for activex controls and to generate report accordingly.Problem:
Getting an error like:"Insufficient memory to continue the execution of the program."
The above error occurs while scanning for older version of Access files like prior to office 2000.
And the line of code where I get this is as follows:
Dim oForm As Access.Form Dim oAccess as Access.Application oForm = oAccess.Forms(objForms.Name)
But it opens the file and form as well.
Whether it is possible to read the file (Access Forms and Reports) or not?

I have code that just runs and runs, and I'd like it to stop and take a rest. I want execution to wait for a mouse event and then continue. I can't just put the code to be executed after the event directly into the Click handler, because many different sections of code need to stop and wait for the event. I'd like the code to stop, wait for the Click event, then continue. I tried the test code below, but it pretty much hangs the program during the Do Until loop; I can't even press Button2. [Code]

When i test a project i usually press Ctrl+Break to pause the execution to change a value here or there, but unfortunately VB opens a new tab titled "No Source Available" and it become difficult to back to the tab that i was working with specially when there are a lot of opening tabs.
Is there any option to stay on the current tab when pressing Ctrl+Break?

i've been searching for a way to delay a part of my program to let another part load, all i have found is threading sleep and one way which uses huge amounts of processing power. does anyone know a simple way to pause a part of script for a couple of seconds and then letting it run again? ( the problem is i need to get values from core temp, i also need to open it in the program. at the moment it say's "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." because it hasn't loaded by the time it is tried to be accessed. )

I�m having trouble with my VS. It gives me the error "insufficient memory to continue the execution of the program". This is a dangerous error because I cannot save the project either. So all work is for nothing. Actually VS destroyed my mainform at one time due to this error.
Now there shouldn�t be anything wrong with the computer or the project. The computer is new and with ok performance. The program runs ok on other computers (up to 5 yrs old) both published and in debug. On the old computer I use VS express, on the new I have Pro.
I think it has something to do with the graphics (I have added one or two pictures to the project since testing it on the older computer). VS graphics really doesn�t work like it should.
I have a mainform (the one that got destroyed) which I want to use as a MDI container. I want to have a picture as background. That doesn�t work (!) so I use a picturebox instead. When showing childforms the idea is that som part should be transparent, thus showing the MDI�s background.
In debug, as well as after publishing, the result is the MDI shows, and it actually has the picture as background. However the childforms don�t show at all. They show up in the window toolstrip though. Needless to say I cannot save the project because of the memory issue.
So, am I right in assuming that VS cannot handle a simple .bmp picture, or what should I do to be able to continue developing?

I have a form in a vb.net windows form application called PolicyRefreshStatus.vb that has a ProgressBar control on it. From the main form called EditPolicy.vb I need to show PolicyRefreshStatus.vb over top of EditPolicy.vb - but the way things are wired I'm controlling the the ProgressBar and it's steps from logic inside EditPolicy.vbIf I display the PolicyRefreshStatus.vb bar using the .show() method things work fine.The problem is if the user clicks back on the main form then PolicyRefreshStatus.vb losses focus. If I show PolicyRefreshStatus.vb as a modal form using .ShowDialog() then execution halts in EditPolicy.vb after the .ShowDialog() statement.
so for example in the code:
mPolicyRefreshStatus = New PolicyRefreshStatus
mPolicyRefreshStatus.pbMax = mPolicy.ClaimsUpdateMax

I have a 'For Each...' loop in the VB.NET code for one of the pages on my website. There is also a Try/Catch block within this code that currently contains an 'Exit Sub' in the event of an error being trapped. However, what I would actually like to do is to merely exit the current loop value and recommence the loop at the next value in the sequence.
How can I do this?

what if you created a pool of numbers: 1 - 21 and then chose a random selection from the pool? Something like the following:[code]This gets rid of those messy if statements and all of those loops.

I have the following problem:
I've got 3 lines
If I click the "next" button
Line 1 shall be highlighted
Then I I click ""next" again
[Code].....
a for i = 1 to 3 to loop within the Button1_click makes i directly 3 of course so line 1 and 2 will not be highlighted.
I am not allowed to use a msgbox in between cause then it would be easy, cause I would wait until "OK" would be pressed...
How can I make this for i = 1 to 3 loop work and highlight the lines 1, 2 and 3, one by one after pressing the "Next" button?
