I have a situation like this:
if <some test> then
do lots of stuff
endif
I'm refactoring the code getting ready for some major work. I want to remove the if/endif pair but leave the contents (do lots of stuff) intact and in place.
In Visual Studio 2008, what is the easiest way to do that without making a mess
When I exclude a block using #if #endif in VB.Net there is no visual evidence that the block has actually been excluded unless I indent the block and it does not return to the left margin. I checked the active settings for Fonts and the Excluded Code colorization is identical to that of C# and C++. However, the block is not colorized at all. VB clearly knows the block has been excluded, but I cannot figure out how to get the block highlighted as it is in C# and C++.
View 3 RepliesI notice that my.settings are all cleared after a clickonce update... What should I do to keep settings intact... Can I possibly copy the settings file somewhere at form unload and restore them at form load?
View 1 RepliesI developed an application, which has the ability to save custom settings in application settings variables. The user saves his setings and it works perfectly. The problem is when i update the application to new version. I will be uninstalling the old version and install the new version. At this time all the user settings are set to default. How can i make my application to not distrub the user settings and keep them intact. Is there any alternate. PBL (Visual Studio 2010 Professional, Win 7 64 bit Ultimate)

When a user leaves a TextBox on the form I execute a format and save to a variable. This is saved to a database by clicking on a ToolStrip button.
The problem occurs if the user moves the mouse directly from the TextBox to the Button. Neither the Leave event or the Lost Focus event is triggered, the variable is not created and, of course not saved.
If I put the code in the Save Button and the User moves to another control, the formatting(data type Double to currency format in the TextBox) that I want to show is not executed.

View 1 RepliesI find that if I do me.close and then reopen the form with showDialog later, things are as they were before I closed it. If I use me.dispose and then later open the form again, its as if it was never opened before. Are these two both valid methods for leaving a form?

I'm trying to update an old code that I don't have the source code for. In this code, the user enters an integer in a textbox as part of a form. Once they move to the next textbox a new form opens to input the number of files that the user chose (in the textbox).I have created all of the forms, but I can't figure out how to get the code to open the new form once the integer has been entered in the textbox and the cursor has moved to the next textbox. I would prefer this to happen automatically and not involve a button.
View 13 RepliesI am experiencing a strange issue with a VB6 -> VB.Net conversion. There is a function that uses ADOX to look through the tables in a given database, and reset the seed values of any columns in said tables with the auto increment property set to true.I tracked the issue down to a call of "col.Properties("Autoincrement").Value". If this line of code is commented out, then the file handle properly terminates when I close both the ADO and the ADOX connections at the end of the function. If I leave that line in, the handle stays open despite the closing calls and forcing garbage collection.Here's how I am closing the objects:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(adoConn)
Dim connection As ADODB.Connection = cat.ActiveConnection
If Not connection Is Nothing Then

I'm looking for a way to process the text entered into a textbox, before the the focus is lost from the control. Or a way to pass a reference to the control to a function/sub when the control has lost focus. In Access I would be able to use the AfterUpdate event. I have tried the following events, but have not figured out how to get what I want from either of these events:
- TextChanged (tried to capture the Tab key, didn't work)
- Validating (when fired for Text1, the ActiveControl name is Text2 which is the next TextBox control)
i have an array of booleans whose current boolean values I want to preserve but add additional length to the array? How can I achieve that? My code looks like this:

I have a DGV with a CB column in VS2008. I would like an event when a DGVCB selection is made (without leaving the cell). It will probably have to be a DGV cell or row event but I can't find one that fires as soon as a DGVCB selection is made.

I am trying to create a code where I placed sets of numbers in an array.I'll use a masktextbox to have the user enter the numbers to match what's in the array. If the user enters the number, ex: social, and the data is correct (matches the numbers in the array), something happens if the number entered in the masktextbox does not match any of the number sets in an array then another thing happens.The masktextbox so far only validates format and gets number only, however, I want the number entered to match whats in the array.
View 1 RepliesOur program works fine, until someone locks the computer or the screen-saver pops up (but not ctrl+alt+delete). Once the computer is unlocked/the screen saver is closed, the application stops drawing everything except the title bar, and stops responding to input - it displays a mostly-white window which can't be moved or closed.(Example of application freezing - the mountains are from my desktop background)If we let it sit for about 5~10 minutes, it comes back to life, and doesn't hang again (even after locking the computer/screen saver popup) until the application is restarted.

Need help removing a copy of my program shown on the Task Manager after I close.
I must kill a conflicting program that cannot share the COM port and then reinstate when myprogram ends. To reinstate I use: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(conflictingPath & conflictingProgram)
In the last line of my Form1.Closed I try to end all with:System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit()
Not working - each time I run this program it does kill the conflicting program, can do its dialing function and upon closing reinstates the conflicting program. But each time another copy shows under Task Manager.
I've been working on a GUI in WPF which I'm fairly new to, having only used Windows Forms up until now. So far, my GUI is very simple: it contains two rectangles, each of which drops a shadow. The shadow creates an effect of rectangles "floating above the canvas" so to speak.
When one of the rectangles is pressed, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow goes away, thus creating an effect of the rectangle being pressed down onto the canvas, like a button.Similarly, when mouse button is released, the myRectangle.MouseDown event is handled such that the shadow reappears and the rectangle "floats" again. This behavior make them resemble buttons. Note, there a reasons I want them to be rectangles and not custom buttons.
[Code]...
If the pointer leaves a rectangle while mouse button is pressed, I'd like shadow to reappear. This is arguable simple, because theoretically in this case, any time myRectangle.MouseLeave is raised, the shadow should come back on, even if it was already there.If the pointer left a rectangle when mouse button was pressed, then came back while before the button was released, I want the shadow to disappear again. This one is what gives me problems. No idea how to do this.
I am attempting to write a program that will disable the Local Area Connection while leaving the Wireless connection enabled. My company is using net-books in our stores to demo air-cards and we need to keep them off of the LAN. I'm new to VB and VB.net, and it's been a while since I did any type of programming.
