View 4 RepliesI created a program that has serval labels on a form and a listview object. It has a button that when clicked reads a textfile and loads up values in the listview object. I then can click and drag text from the listview box to any label on the form and then the program removes the value from the listview box. Now, my question is how can I instruct VB to save these values in the text property of the labels so that the next time the program is loaded the labels will contain the values loaded during the last run time session?
View 1 Repliesuser control, I'm dynamically creating an arrary of several labels within a groupbox on the controls form. This is done in the load event.The user control is then placed on the form of mainapplication and then run. My problem being that the labels are invisiblen I launch the app. The visible property for the labels is set to true during the creation of the controls.

My current project involves displaying questions/answers from two different databases to be used to compare values and make judgements. The number of questions, choices, and answers is all variable. Thus I am attempting to create labels dynamically to show the information on the screen and create textboxes to leave comments. My problem is not knowing how to then access these lables, since I can't code in to use "label_comments" & (i) as it doesn't exist (at least, I can't get it to work).
First, my code for creating and displaying the information:
db_connection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionStringMerrill3"))
db_connection.Open()

I want to create labels in my page dynamicly, for example the user will choose in a textbox the number of labels, and I will display the number of this label with .text = "XYZ".
View 3 RepliesI'm creating a series of labels at run time based on an array of strings made earlier in the program, but when i run, the labels aren't showing. The program is form based and the co-ordinates for the new labels are well within the bounds of the formHere's the code I'm using:
For i = 0 To 10
Dim lbl As Label
lbl = New Label

This may be simple, but im having a tough go at it. I'm trying to make a "review" section in a step through form, where the user can see everything that has been entered and if they choose go back and "edit" that information again. One section only has to show the information that has been added by the user, basically if they don't select a certain checkbox there is no reason to display the info for that box.I want to to dynamically create labels in a Panel (Panel7) on a TabPage (TabPage3), only for the checkbox information that was selected. This is what I have right now, and I am unable to see anything on the page, I have also tried without the panel and straight onto the tabpage itself to no avail.
MsgBox(CurPat, MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
If (CurPat = "True") Then
Dim lblTemp As New Label

I am creating an electronic display board using Visual Studio 2005, this will be an application using VB and not web based.What I am trying to do is use labels dynamicly and populate them from a dataset, Now there is a lot of labels on this board and to be honest the perfect solution would be to use a Data Grid View, unfortuantly I have to fit the information into a Custom Graphic that was created, hence the reason for labels.So obliviously I dont want to have to name each label and specify its information, for example:
Code:
Label1.text = MyDataSet.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item(0)
Label2.text = MyDataSet.Tables(0).Rows(1).Item(0)
Label3.text = MyDataSet.Tables(0).Rows(2).Item(0)
So I thought about something as follows but not sure how to get it work.Say I new I had 100 Labels Label1 to Label100.
Code:
Dim i as Integer
For i = 1 to 100
[code]....
Now the above doesnt work but it doesnt throw up any errors either.
I have a form that has an array of dynamically created labels of varying size based on a search from a database. The problem I'm having is that when the user searches for a different term, it looks like some of the labels don't get new values. Here's my code for adding the labels:
If rdr.HasRows Then
ReDim Preserve entities(cnt)
While rdr.Read()

I've tried for loop over the controls in panel1 to dispose of any still on there in both the page_load and page_init subs, but neither had an effect. I don't know if it might have something to do with controls having the same IDs after the postback.
I'm currently making an application that involves time tables / scheduling. I'm required to generate a timetable for school teaching activities. in this application, I want to display the time slots using labels and I want to enable users to drag them around to place the subject cards in the available slots. I'm even confused with the control to use for the time slots. Right now I'm thinking of using datagridview for the time slot. So I'm trying to drag the labels around and placing them in the datagridview cells.
View 1 RepliesI have made a program wherein you the labels are dynamically created with a press of a button. if you press on the label, the label would then change color from white to blue. my problem is that how will you make the backcolor of the label change when the button3 is pressed.
here are the codes. placed the whole thing since I dunno if you guys would understand what I mean.

PS here is the link to what my program looks like. link to my program . the button3 in the image is Reserve Seat.
I am using Vb 2008. I have created label array in run-time(Dynamically). I have put them in Panel1.
Dim loc As Integer
loc = 5
For i = 1 To 25
NewLabelMe(i) = New Label
NewLabelMe(i).Text = "99.99"

I am trying to dynamically resize labels and position each subsequent label a perdetermined distance from the end of the label that was just generated. My code looks like this:

in vb6 for label and back-style we had "Transparent" does we have a similar property in vb.net for labels? how can active a button? in vb6 we could call the button_click
View 5 RepliesI know how to add images to Form Controls by using the Property Window.However I am trying to use Icons on the form to indicate error.Example: If this condition is true, display this image, else display that image.
I could do this using multiple labels on top of each other but wondering if there is an easier way.
In the game, I'm using labels and the backcolor property to change their living status. I have an array of the labels. However, when changing their life status using a for loop, i've come across a problem where previous elements in the array effect the next ones before the end of the generation. I found somewhere that recommende I use a different array, However, im not too sure how.
For x = 0 To 400
Boxes(x).Neighbours = GetNeighbours(x)
If Boxes(x).Neighbours = 0 Or Boxes(x).Neighbours = 1 Then
Boxes(x).Alive = False

I am writing an app to be a single button failover of a set of mirrored SQL servers. The app has to handle several other functions (enable/disable and start/stop of services, writing to local registry, copying files from server A to server B, initiating stored procedures, etc.)I have a collection of labels that indicate the status of 4 services on 2 servers, I wrote a function to check the services when passed the machine name, and the service name. Originally I just called the function 8 times (4 services, 2 machines) and populated the labels 'manually'. I have all of this within a timer so that the service status is refreshed every couple seconds. Id like to clean up the code to a single for/next loop that operates on 2 arrays (an array of service names, and an array of labels) such as:
'**Fetch_Status is the function that gets service status, it accepts 2 strings, machine name
'**and service name and returns status "running", "Stopped", as my_status
Dim Services() As String = {"Service1", "Service2", "Service3", etc.}
[code]....
The only reason I want the control array is to be able to use the .Text and .BackColor properties of the labels in the loop. If I make an array of strings with the label names it doesnt seem to pick that up.

View 1 RepliesSo Im iterating through the properties of a class. For each property Im iterating through a datatable until I find a column name with the same name as the property.
No worries so far, here's the isse: Once I've found a match I want to set the class's property to the value in the datatable but I'm having difficulty referencing the property as it has to be done through a variable.
Code:
Dim per As New Person
Dim t As Type = per.GetType
For Each p As PropertyInfo In t.GetProperties

I would like to format output to a property of a custom control I have made.For instance I have a literal control in my control and when populated I want to check if it is longer than 30 characters long, if so, then go to the next space (as to not cut the word off) after the 30th character and place a <br /> tag in to place the next 30 characters on the next line.So if there were 100 characters in a string, there would be 3 line breaks in the label.I have the looping worked out to get the label populated but cannot get how to dymaically create the array based on the string lenth property and index of method.
View 7 RepliesWell im currently developing an application for public use, I have a login screen in which the user enter's their registered credential's and the progressbar loads by increments of 3, now i placed 6 labels ontop of eachother and where the progressbar coding is i put:
If Progressbar.Value >= 1 Then
Label3.Show()
If Progressbar.Value >= 20 Then
Label3.Hide()
Label4.show()
And so on up until Label8 Show at 100%,
Now the problem is... As i have placed the labels ontop of eachother i need them hidden until they are called to show, i have tried adding a background worker to do this but have had no luck, all i see is the labels overlapping eachother when i run my application when i want them hidden untill Label3.Show() is called, and then to display them as they are called and hide them when another one is called to show...
With VB, but I've got the few basics down, file naming, adding objects, naming objetcs, etc. But the reason I'm on here is because I cannot complete even the first step. Our form is 640 X 480, and we need to have two labels, both have vertical scrolls. I know how to add and resize the labels to meet my needs, but I do not know how to create scrolling labels. Or are they text boxes? On our bubble chart (Do you know what that means?) it says lblInformation. We are going to have clickable radio buttons which will update the lblInformation with info about each of the radio buttons.
View 7 Repliesmy program written by me can only perform properly if its in multiple of 8bits, but when it exceeds more than or less than 8 bits it doesnt perform the specified function. so i want to know how to do '0' padding if my file size is not in multiples of 8 bits.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make a program that allows the user to click on labels which have a number in it and then that value has to be stored into a different label.
For example the user click on label1 and the values goes into label12, then it click on label3 and the values goes to label13 and so on.
At the moment I can only code on the respective label underneath (1->12,2->13...) but it has to be in any order (5->12,7->13...)
Here a picture and below my code:

View 3 RepliesI have some questions regarding vb.net bit shifting. I understand the << >> operators are bit shift operators in vb.net. I have a two byte hex value 0x3ACC, each bit in this two byte represents either a day, month or year. The bit structure of this hex value is yyyy yyym mmmd dddd. I am confused as to how I should bit shift these values so that year, month and day are in their own UINT16 values. Just want to know about shifting numbers and if I need to add any padding to the shift?

ListBox1.Items.Add(whatever)
I would like to increase the space between entries, but not adding a blank line, since I do not want a blank option tha thwe user could click on. Is there anyway to do this?
I have tried:
ListBox1.Items.Add(whatever & vbCrLf), but no change.
