Changing Button Image By Selecting Combobox Item?

Aug 1, 2011

I got a Combobox with some items (item1-item7) to select and 54ish Buttons(sButton1-sButton54). Also an array(53) called Buttons. The array is filled with the items to select, like: Buttons(0) = "item 1, item 2" Everytime another item in the Combobox is selected, I'd like only some of the Buttons to change their Image. Therefore I got the array. If Item 1 is selected and Buttons(0) contains the item1 I'd like to change the Button1's image.edit: It works with changing the image of every Button:

sButton1.Image = My.Resources.image1

But I'd prefer to change all in one go (Loop) instead.

sButton(0) = "item1, item2, item3"
sButton(1) = "item2, item3"
sButton(2) = "item1, item3"

Selecting A Specific Area Of A WebPage?

Oct 24, 2010

I was wonder how, if you can, can I create a WebBrowser control or something similar to this, that will contain a selected area of information, and that information only. So it doesn't load and show the whole web page, only the part I choose.

For example, I would only want to show the weather portion of this webpage: [URL]

How can I get a specific area of a webpage, loaded into a form, that is able to be reloaded/refreshed later on?

Selecting Specific Text In A Variable?

May 22, 2012

I have encountered a small issue with coding a portion of my Visual Basic program. In my program, I have a variable that contains text data. I would like to be able to select certain text in the variable and place it into a textbox.

For example, my variable is called strCallInfo.

strCallInfo contains the following value:
Address: 123 Law Rd
Location Info: Carbon Police Department

[Code].....

Note that the values in the textboxes are equal to values in the string variable. The only problem I am encountering is how to sort the string and place certain values into specific text boxes.

Display Data Below Specific XML Tag By Selecting From Listbox?

Oct 15, 2011

I just started learning VB.NET about a moth ago (I have been taking classes, so its been about 5 days worth of classes) and I decided to work on this project idea I had. Essentially, it's a database to keep track of anime and manga that I, or whoever else uses it, have watched/read.[code]...

However, now I want to make it so that when one selects a specific title in the list box, it will show the data in the tags below the <series> tag that matches the item selected in a label. One thing I just thought of is than since the list box gets populated in the order that the series are in, it could be easier to go in order from first item equaling the first <series> and so on.

Automatically Selecting First Item In Combo Box?

Sep 1, 2009

When my application starts, it scans the computers registry for COM ports and adds them in the combo box. The combo box first index is just a blank, and the second is COM1, COM2,...COMn. What I want to do is by default, I want my program to select the first COM port in the combo box, so in this case, COM1.

I know I have to use the PORTNAME property of the serial object, but not sure how I would set that equal to the 2nd index of the combo box.

Selecting An Item From Database To Add To A ListBox

Dec 15, 2011

Our project is to make some simplified POS software, in our case, for a restaurant. The form I am currently working on is where you pick food items and add them to a listbox which will essentially be the order form. I made a database in Access that has food-item info and linked it to the VB project.url...My combobox narrows down the food items according to what category is selected, i.e. "Lunch".Now.. is there any way I can select an item from my database records (right box) and add them to an empty listbox that I'll save to a txt file. The database box is called "FoodItemsDataGridView" but maybe I don't even refer to that, I have no idea..

Automatically Selecting An Item From A Drop Down Menu?

Aug 6, 2009

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."

Writing To File And Selecting An Item Using A Dropdown Box?

Mar 27, 2011

My program that I'm creating is a quiz creation tool, based for teachers to create quizzes and then use them to aid with quizzing their students.I've got the whole program working in that you can create quiz, play the quiz and then see how many questions were answers correctly and how many questions their were The problem I'm having is that I don't know how I can save multiple quizzes, for example you can create one quiz, that then saves as a .txt in debug however, when you then create another quiz and click the save file the old quiz details are sitting in the .txt

Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
Dim filename As String 'full file/path name for QuizRecords.txt
Dim index As Short 'loop control variable

[code]....

So what I'd like it to do is, when saved create another text file? Or another set of data questions, I have been looking through my Computing projects in Visual Basic . NET book as well as through online but I can't find anything that I understand as such.

TabControl Not Selecting Or Adding Item To Newly Created Tab?

I have a Private Sub that I execute whenever a user clicks one of two or three things, and in it I create a new tab in my TabControl. Once the new tab has been created, I select it then add a formatted textbox to it. However, it is not selecting the new tab and therefore only adding the rich text box into the already selected tab (not displayed, of course, because it has a dock style of Fill.) Here iis my code to select the new tab and format / edit the rich text box:

Try
tabMain.SelectedTab = tabMain.TabPages.Item(intTabIndex) 'Select the new tab
AddHandler rtbCode.TextChanged, AddressOf DisplayUpdate 'Add TextChanged event to handle updates

Selecting Random Number From ComboBox?

May 15, 2009

The problem I have is I have made a program which you select a value from a combobox and it changes the value of a url for a picturebox and thus changes the picture, I also have a button which randomizes all of the comboboxes so I will get something unique, but every time the program loads, and I hit random, it chooses the same numbers in order. If you need an example, when I press random the first time I get the number 7 for my first combobox, so the selected index=7, every time I load the program and press random it picks 7 for that combobox.
