Programmatically Changing The Culture For A Multi Form Application On Startup?
Feb 18, 2009
Is there some way of programtically changing the culture for a multi form application on startup so that the application will interpret date formats correctly. For example if the aplication runs on a machine with a en-US culture it would be able to take a date from a database in the MM/dd/yyyy format and convert it to a date object and when the same application runs on a en-GB machine it can take that same MM/dd/yyyy date and convert it into a date object without getting a date format exception.

The issue is in a windows based client-server application.In the GUI, the system date value is converted to string and is stored in a text box, which is displayed while the dialog gets loaded.How to change the format of date so that when the form loads the date is displayed in en-US culture irrespective of the regional setting of the system(for eg: regional setting of the system is "fr-FR").

I am developing an windows application in VB 2008, My requirment is such that I have to change the applications Splash and Startup object on the basis of "Custom Constants" (Compilation Constants).As far as I have .Net idea it should be done in Application.Startup Event (guide me if i am wrong)Now, in Application.Startup_Event when I write the code
Private Sub MyApplication_Startup(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.StartupEventArgs) Handles Me.Startup
My.Application.SplashScreen = SplashScreen2
[code]....
The application dont work as desired, instead it starts with Form2 (which is OK), while in case of Splash it doesnt changes the splash form.

I cannot get my application to display in English, it always displays in French I have an application that uses 2 languages. The default language is en-GB and the second language is French For setting the text of the buttons and labels. I have set the localized property to true and changing the language to fr-FR on the form. So setting the default languages controls by choosing the default the language property, and then switching to French language to set the French controls. So I have the following files:
Code:formMain.resxformMain.fr-FR.resxformMain.Designer.vbformMain.vb
And for message boxes and other strings I have added these 2 resource files
Code:formMain.Strings.resxformMain.Strings.fr-FR.resx
So if I want to switch to different languages I have changed the cultureInfo as follows:
Code:If My.Settings.Default.Language = "fr-FR" Then Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-FR")Else Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("en-GB")End If
And for string I use the following:
Code:MessageBox.Show(formMain_Strings.SameStringName)
I also an address book form that is a child of the formMain. Which I have used the same method. However, the address book works as normal, but the formMain never changes to the language I want. Even though tested by explictly setting the language to en-GB in the form constuctor before the inializeComponent() it will always default to French.Not sure why the address book (child) work correctly, the parent form (formMain) will always display in French, no matter if I have set this to en-GB.I am 100% that my method is correct using what I have show you above.I was thinkng about deleting the formMain and creating a new one. But that would mean doing everything again and would take too long.

I am wanting to change my startup form for my application in Visual Studio for VB.Net. I double clicked "My Project" in the Solution Explorer and then clicked on the Application tab. For some reason I only see 12 forms out of the 6 forms I have in my project when the "Enable Application Framework" check box is True. When the check box is False I see all my forms, why?

I can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.

how to redirect outputs from console to a window form text box,but the console application I'm using is always running real time, thus my .net application hangs until I close the program that is read real time.The code displays the application to a 2nd form with a textbox multi line. Until I close that my entire program hangs and the console application monitored runs.
How do I code it to:
1. Run real time without hanging the entire program.
2. the console app must run at all times. (figured how to hide/ and no window created for it)
Sub Console()
Form2.Show()
Dim myCon As New Process
myCon.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False

im making an application in vb.net (duh!) anyway i have created and coded the whole project and it performs exactly as i want it to (i dont need code help). my problem lies with the fact that my project is 2-3 parts
1.a setup form that gathers inital data about the enviroment stores this data encrypted in a config file. after inital setup this form is not displayed again. but needs to be run on both computers
2. the second form is the real application form im in the process of turning this part in to a background service anyway this form is the one that establishes the connection between two nodes it works correctly
3. the config files
anyway here is my problem i want to make this application distributional with just one file the (.exe) and have this .exe make everything else happen. it runs the setup form and creates the first config file which it does then it needs to produce a copy of just the second form and the config file to transfer to workstation #2 that will run independtly without the whole application which i cant make happen then it needs to turn both workstations application on by only starting one on either computer and invoke the other computer to start its corrosponding app also no idea how to make this happen any ideas or suggestions as to where to look to try to find my answers.im thinking i might need to make two seperate applications (a setup app, and the running app) and include them both in a project and use the setup.exe to to package them together this is a little side project that im making for my self to use to make programming a little easier so i plan on giving it out to some fellow students to test and tell me what they think so im not really worried about ease of use or complicated procedures yet but if it turns out to work and actually be of use to anyone else i would be willing to rewrite it to distribute to the masses but for now i just want it to work for me.
