I created one ToolStripDropDownButton in vb.net. I will like to put methods for every drop down items and as well as the Button Menu.... how it possible
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a Visual Basic application in Visual Studio 2010. The application was originally created in VB6, which had a dedicated menu button editor. Now I need to add new drop-down items to my button menus, but VS10 seems to have no facility for this. All attempts so far appear to lead me to tool strip support, which I do not want.

I have combed these forums and the 'net and can't find an answer to my specific problem. My menu strip disappeared (after deleting a small secondary form within my project). I therefore created a new strip and while recreating the menu items realized that the original menu items are still present, showing in my properties list. I have checked my design file as well and the original menu strip is definitely gone but the original menu items are there. I don't have many items so I would have no problem just deleting the original ones but I can't see them to delete them! I have checked and they are all set to visible. I have also moved everything on my form to see if it is behind anything else.

View 2 RepliesMy visual studio 2005 has been running great up till now The menu items in the menu toolbar display exactly as follows:File File Edit Edit View View File File Edit Edit View View Tools Tools Tools Tools Window Window Community Community Help Help Window Window Community Community Help Help
Error List is displayed as follows:(I've excluded the icons)0 Errors 0 Errors 0 Warnings 0 Warnings 0 Messages 0 Messages The standard toolbar images are also displayed in 'duplicate'
This is before I open a project and visual studio is on the start page. The 'duplicates' do not go away even when a project is open.When project is open, Solution explorer displays duplicate images as well
I've tried all the following but still cannot get it to display normally. Restored my computer to a time when it was working ok. Full scan on my computer with AVG premium which includes spyware etc (No viruses , etc found) All software is updated fully
I have the following linq statement to go through a dropdown menu's sub items and get what items are checked: vb Dim UnselectedItems = From xItem As ToolStripMenuItem In tsiSelectObjects.DropDownItems Where TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem AndAlso CType(xItem, ToolStripMenuItem).Checked = False
I get this error tho: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSeparator' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'. As you can probably guess i have ToolStripMenuItems and separators in there
However the AndAlso should short circuit in the case where the item is not a ToolStripMenuItem and it doesn't seem to be doing so (as TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem=false in this case)?

View 1 RepliesSo basically im around 2 months into building a text based rpg game in vb 2010 which is coming along lovely. there are unique charachter creations, bans, loans, monsters to fight, levels, skill points, spells, inn's, etc etc... you get the idea. so now its time to move on to one of the largest problems of all. an inventory :O now, i have a db with the correct information in, i have even sorted all the code for the program to read the db with the correct items and its all working fine. but now i would like to have a more gui system. meaning:a grid based box where pictures of each Item_ID are displayed so you can see what items are in your inventory at any time. now i can sort this out myself with a case select and just load all the images into the local resource and pull itempictue1 when id = 1 itempicture2 when id=2 etc etc you get the idea. what i was woundering is...
could i build a drag and drop system where the player can move the items inside the inventory fairly easily? i have done some research into this but as vb isnt much of a gaming language i've run into a fair few dead ends. Not sure if i have come across right, but in essence, if you have a grid, 4x4 and item 1 is in grid space 1 and item 2 is in grid space 2.. to swap them around with the mouse.Please, dont shout if im asking too much :L nobody likes haters. any help is much appreciated and if you dont think vb can do this then please tell me and i will consider all alternate possibilities unless you have a better idea?
How can I view the methods that are hidden within objects please? For example I have a listview vbLstVw - But the only method I can seem to access is by double clicking it to get the

lvwPrac_Initalize
lvwPrac_1337functionOfD00m
I'm trying to automate a form process from a previous employee. One of the things that I have to do to achieve this is select a COM port from a dynamically populated list. I've looked around and the closest thing I could come up with is something like:
.cbbCOMPorts.SelectedItem(1) =
True
While this compiles, the computer does not like this at run-time. It throws an exception out:
"Object variable or With block variable not set."
I'm new to Visual Basic, and I'm trying to figure out how to make a drop down menu to select the font in a text editor, like Microsoft Word. Does anyone know how I could do that? I'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

I know how to cut off characters at the end of a string using vb script, which uses the LEFT(string, #) syntax, however, how do i do this using vb.net?
and my second question, I have a string being sent into a drop down menu that gets the data pulled from an access database using a data source control. How do I format it so say, it only shows the first 100 characters of that string in the dropdown?
I'm reading a binary file into a bindinglist of (t); to be bound to a datagridview.Each line in the file represents a single transaction but I need to consolidate and or filter transactions that meet certain criteriaI know how to do this from a mechanical standpoint (looping the list while adding each item, and adding a new item, or merging the data with an existing item), but I'm looking for a practice, pattern, existing components, or something else that I'm missing (I'm drawing a blank for keywords to search).I don't want to reinvent the wheel if I don't have too. I'm particularly concerned with speed and performance issues with 100k plus records to process in some instances.Currently working with .NET 2.0, but will move to 3.5 if a particularly sexy solution exists.
View 2 RepliesI am creating a VBA application using Excel 2007 and would like to make virtually all of the standard Office and Excel menus invisible to the user and present to the user only my custom menu controls. I have been successful in doing this for all objects on the Ribbon as well as those on the Microsoft Office Button Menu, with the exception of the "recently opened files list" box, that also has the "Excel Options" and "Exit Excel" buttons on it. Can anyone tell me the name of the object for this control so that I can make it invisible?

View 6 RepliesI'm having trouble with my panels. I taught myself VB (and the other languages I know) so I don't know all the terminology, so bear with me. But I'm making an application, and in this application I have a set of radio buttons, and because I only wanted one to be checked at a time, I put them in a panel. The problem is, I want to add more stuff to the application (form?) and anytime I add something that is in the area of a Panel, it becomes part of that Panel.
This is all fine and good when you are trying to drag and drop something right into the panel, it makes it really easy. But when I'm trying to drag and drop something else in that area where the panel just happens to be, I don't want it to be in that panel. So how can I make it so the panel stops parenting my other items on the page? I hope that makes since.
I was just wondering, if I have a list view control, with 2 columns, and insert items to those columns, ex:

That is my question I hope you can give me an answer if this can be achieved trough the listview control from vb.net or other control that you know of. If you post an example in C#, maybe I can create al DLL and put it as a control in my vb.net tools, but I just want to know if this can be done.
