Program A Specific Function Key Press To Perform That Key's Action?
Feb 8, 2011
I'm new to VB and Windows programming but I do have a fair amount of experience programming at the command line level. A friend is having problems with his laptop. He does a lot of speaking engagements with Powerpoint. His laptop uses the F7 key to toggle the output to his external monitor port to the video projector. The F7 key has stopped doing this. Is there a way to create a Windows program that will do this without using a DOS window? He is not familiar with command line processing and needs something that he can double-click.

I am writing a small app to automatically connect my PC to the internet at a certain time and I am using rasdial.exe for it...
Private Sub SetIt_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SetIt.Click
Dim windir As String = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("WINDIR")
Shell(windir & "system32
asdial.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus)
End Sub
My question is how to make the shell function run at a specified time or after a certain interval?Also how to wake up my PC from hibernation using vb and winresume.exe

I'm using VS2010, SQL2008 and using asp.net vb - im stuggling with some db related items.I have a couple tables, Project and Projectstatus - looking something like this.project
- ProjectID (autoincrement)
- ProjectName varchar50
- Projectoverview varchar200
Projectstatus
- statusID (autoincrement)
- projectID varchar50
- projectstatus varchar200
What id like to happen is that when i create a new project (into the project table),that a row is created in the projectstatus table, inserting the projectID from the project status for reference.I don't think this can be done from within VS, correct? therefore, do i need to create a SP to perform this action from DB side?

I'm using ASP.NET/VB.NET to create this with SQL 2005. I have a project where I'd like to take a set of records from a table, then send each one through an API, get a result and writeback the result to a table, then move to the next.
Initially, my thought was create a SQLDataSource that grabs all the records, then perform the action on a button to do the action of sending through each record.
Is there a way I can call the recordset from SQLDataSource and perform a loop? I'm thinking something like in Classic ASP/VBScript where you would open a RecordSet, do an action, then Loop until the RS was EoF.

I have a WinForms DataGridView control on a form. There are two fields in this DataGridControl:
Email Address
Resolved Email Address (calculated based on the input in Email Address)
After the user inputs or changes a value in Email Address, I want the value in Resolved Email Address to update based on a separate method. What event should I tie in to so that that the Resolved Email Address cell is updated after the Email Address cell is updated?I'm not sure where to put the event because the user could do a number of things after adding/changing a value: tab to the next cell, click cancel on the form, click ok on the form, etc.

Basically, It is a program that allows you to automatically click things.
Here is the
Public Class Form1
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vkey As Long) As Integer
[Code].....
What I wanted to do was make an option to have variations in tick time. I want to put in a check box, and if it is checked then there will be 10 "variations" in click time, ranging from 1 second too soon, to 1 second late.

Say you wanted to set a status message
' Set status
ssMainMessages.Text = msgValidating
Then perform an action that requires a http request that takes around 5 seconds then you want to display the result of that
' Set status
ssMainMessages.Text = msgValidated
It will only always display the second message? Its like it jumps the first part of the code and goes straight to httprequest.even if you put the update,system,threading.thread.sleep ....

I'm developing a web application that displays items from a work queue to a user. When an item is selected I have the app lock that item out so no other user can select it. By hitting the back button in the app it unlocks the item.
I want to be able to unlock the item if the user hits the backspace key. I know what code I need to unlock it. I just need to know how to make the code execute on backspace key stroke.

I have been developing my application for a while and need some advice on the closing. I want a code to be run when the close button is clicked but ONLY when it is clicked.
I have dried the form.disposed but that fires whenever the form is closed from the code. I just want it to do it when the close button is clicked.If you don't understand it I will give an example. I have a registation form that is the first thing a user who has not used the app before can see. When they click the close button I want the application to exit through Application.Exit(), however when they have registered the form is closed from the code through
formlogin.show()Me.close()However the Me.closE() triggers the form.disposed event and thus the application exits completely which I don't want. I know I can use the form.hide() but that keeps it running which makes the app more resource intensive.

I want to make an application in VB.NET and I want this application to work as follows, There will be an array of items on which I want to perform a specific operation (MyTask), with the help of multiple threads.For example, say, the array is holding 12 items in it, and I want to create 3 threads to do the work,
Thread 1: Reads the first item from the array and goes to perform the specific operation (MyTask).
Thread 2: Reads the second item from the array and goes to perform the operation MyTask
Thread 3: Reads the third itm from the array and goes to perform the Mytask.
Now once Thread 1 completes the operatin MyTask, I want to assign 4th item from the array to the Thread 1 to continue the process.Once Thread 2 completes the operatin MyTask, I want to assign 5th item from the array to the Thread 2 to continue the process and so on... until all the items from the array is processed. Also, the function taking 5 arguments out of which 4 arguments will be same. Only one argument will vary and it will take the keywords one by one as input parameter.

I have a feature in my program that allows the user to have multiple tabs, each having its own rich text box. Is there a way that I can only perform an event, such as "Text Changed", for the selected tab's rich text box, or will everything still work (the way I want) if I give them all the same name?
