Replace Error When System.IO.File Used?

Mar 23, 2009

I have some code that uses the Replace function to modify the content of a string like:

x = Replace("Hello World", "H", "P")

This works fine until I decide I need to use so of the abilities found in "System.IO.File" When I place at the top of my code.

Imports System.IO.File

The " x = Replace("Hello World", "H", "P") " code pops up with the Error: "Expression does not produce a value."Looks as if the System.IO.File I now want to do some file manipulation..

Transparent Label And Moving Backgrounds

Jul 8, 2009

I am using a picture box to load an animated gif as a background on top of my form (same size as the form). On top of that I have a standard label with some text. I have made the label background transparent but it doesn't display correctly with the animated picturebox behind it. The label background is transparent but it doesn't draw the animation correctly under it. It almost looks like it is drawing it at a few frames behind. Now, I know I can draw the text on the animated picturebox by hand (I have done that before) but I am not sure it is possible this time because the labels are part of custom controls.

Custom Backgrounds On Panel Resizable With Form

Jun 11, 2012

I need to have a custom background on a panel that can be resized with the form and want to know how I should go about designing it. Maybe have three images the left side, right side and the middle is just replicated? The thing is I would like for it to have a border and there will be buttons attached to the top edge so simply stretching a static picture may make the buttons not line up properly.

'System.AccessViolationException' Occurred In System.Windows.Forms.dll Immediately Before Entering A Click Handler?

Oct 20, 2010

Win7 64 bit; fully patched VS2008 targeting FW2.0; VB.Net; running in Debug Mode (not tested in Release mode)I have a resonably complex app which I am refactoring a bit. As part of that, I relocated some code from a subroutine into a Click Event Handler. The Event Handler will, late in the handler, call the, reduced in function, subroutine. The point of this is thatNow when I click the button associated with the modified Handler I get:A first chance exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll<br />With Error System.AccessViolationException Attempted to read or write protected memory.This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

at MusicManager2009.frmMain2.cmdLoadAlbum_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick(EventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e)

[code].....

All functions of the app, except those that start from the buttonclick in question, work as before in the problem version.The problem persists after rebuilding the entire solution, after restarting VS, and after rebooting the PC.
