Textbox Control Which Has A Property Called 'StatusBerText'?
Feb 15, 2010
I've created my own textbox control which has a property called 'StatusBerText'. The idea is when the control has focus an event is raised and the text is shown in the status bar.
Below is my code which works, it starts with me.controls and looks for my textbox to add the handler. If it comes across a container it then starts again looping through all the controls in the container.
Private Sub NewCompany_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
SetControls(Me.Controls)
End Sub
Private Sub SetControls(ByVal obj As Object)
[Code]...
As I said this all works, however, I would ideally like to put the 'SetControls' in a class so I just call it in each form rather than having to paste the entire code in all the time. To do this I will need to pass the address of the StatusBarChanged function through, is this possible?

I have the following line of code in my program:
JCL_History.Enqueue(JCL_History(I))
This JCL_History object is basically a Generic.List encapsulated in a wrapper and has the following method:
Public Sub Enqueue(ByRef value As String)
If Members.Contains(value) Then
Me.RemoveAt(Members.IndexOf(value))
[Code].....
In my testing I have 2 items in this JCL_History list. When I call that first line of code I posted (the one that invokes Enqueue) with I = 1 I expect the first item to be shuffled to the bottom and the second item to be shuffled to the top.
After the thread returns from Enqueue I notice that this is exactly what happens to my list, HOWEVER if I hit the "step_in" button after the execution of Enqueue I go into the Default Property's set method where Index = 1 and value = and it screws everything up, because the item that got shuffled to the end (index 1) gets overwritten by the item value shuffled to the top.
So basically the set method on the default property is getting called at what I think to be a completely ridiculous time. What gives? By the way I'm running VS2005 on XP.

i was wondering if it possible to have a condition where lets say you have a column in the datatable called amount and a textbox acting as the filter called say maxamount to set it so the rowfilter when filtering the table will sum the number in the amount column until the number in maxamount is met, then stop and only return the rows where the total sum of the amount column is equal or less than the maxamount value, so i guess if the next row takes us over the maxamount it discards this row and returns the rows previous to it. is this possible using datagridview rowfilter or should i be loooking elsewhere to achieve this?

I'm trying to use the SelectionStart property in a textbox (VS 2003, SP1). The build doesn't flag use of the property, and the app runs, but the SelectionStart code just doesn't work: Textbox1.SelectionStart = 20000 (just want cursor to go to the end of box, and there are never that many characters in box)
The object browser reveals that the SelectionStart property is not included in the System.Windows.Forms textbox control I'm using. SelectionLength is there, but not SelectionStart. The control is inherited from TextBoxBase, which does contain the property -- it just isn't translated into theTextBox control. MultiLine is set to true.

Can you look at my coding and let me know what I'm missing or doing wrong?I have a SSRS report that is called from a ReportViewer control and the ProcessingMode for this control is Remote. The report also has 1 parameter in it's DataSet.In the code I placed a MsgBox to make sure the code is finding the parameter and returning the parameter name. I am trying to stick the value of 10 into the parameter for playerID 10. Data for this player does exist.
I believe I need to add some more code to make this work but I'm not sure what else to add.
When the code executes the report is displayed but no data is shown in the report.

I have observed a behaviour in VB.net where property setters get called more often than seems necessary, in conjunction with calls to the sister setter method.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Console.WriteLine("Calling WorkReferenceTypeByReference")
WorkReferenceTypeByReference(ReferenceTypeData)
Console.WriteLine("Called WorkReferenceTypeByReference")
[Code] .....
Note the spurious call to the property setter following the method execution. I am supposing this behaviour is produced as a safety measure against inadvertently modifying the underlying property, despite this potentially being the intent. This behaviour in the case of ByRef vs ByVal usage is easily solved by choosing appropriate ByVal keyword, however hase recently noticed a more insidious behaviour, one that has caused a stack overflow of repeated calls, since the setter call would update a value that called the getter only.
Public Sub DoSomething()
Dim a As New CustomObject(anotherObject.AProperty(getterArgument))
End Sub
Public Class AnotherObject
Public Property AProperty as SomeType
[Code] .....
In the previous example, calling DoSomething() would fire the AProperty getter method, but then after that usage, would fire the setter method, which by program logic calls DoSomething() again. It is the automatic calling of the setter that puzzles me.

Does vb 2010 have a 'REQUIRED" property or control that allow you to make a textbox a "required" field? I googled and saw something about required property in controls in toolbox but somehow I could not find it anywhere in my vb 2010 toolbox. Would it be easier to write it? Does anyone have sample code?

I want to type the characters from right to left (to behave as a right alignment). But I am not supposed to use the Right Alignment property or the RighttoLeft property of a text box.For example, I want to enter the characters of a string from right and each character should shift one space left so that the user can enter another character after that.

I have three buttons on my main form, say Form1. Clicking any of the buttons brings up Form2 modally for input, it's a number pad. Now, depending on which button was clicked to get there, after the user enters his numbers, I need to change a specific label on Form1. In other words, btn1 clicked puts user input into lbl1 and so on... I could probably do this with a variable but wondering if there is a more elegant way.

I have an annoying bug which is very difficult to replicate. When I start my application, from time to time, I get this error message "Invoke or BeginInvoke cannot be called on a control until the window handle has been created". This makes the user think the application is unstable... I have no idea what could cause this problem. The application uses a splash screen. It's built in Visual Basic using VS 2010 and .net framework 4.

In C# Windows Forms, a user control's InitializeComponent is called from the form's/control's constructor. When I create same scenario in VB.NET I don't get a constructor, and I can't locate a place where InitializeComponent is called.I need to call my code between InitializeComponent and when the control's Load event is raised, preferably still in the control's constructor. How do I do this in VB.NET?

I have a form called FrmPracDetails which is built up with a List view called LvwColProc. Therefore when you click a field on the LvwColProc it takes you to another form called FrmColProcessing, here you can make changes to certain fields which are also present on FrmPracDetails. What I want to do is when you make changes on FrmColProcesing and Click the Save Button (which calls the Save function)the changes appear instantly on FrmPracDetails. Please note, FrmColProcessing will always be open next to FrmPracDetails. I have tried to put this code in the Save function present in FrmCol Processing as shown below, but it doesnt Refresh FrmPracDetails form. [code]

I am sorry to keep bothering you about this damn DataGridView control ... As you might have noticed I am having a hard time with the DataGridView control ... My latest problem has to do with updating the data base file (Access) through a DataGridView control .
Up to now I have managed to successfully edit an entry in the DataGridView control and moreover to successfully update the data base file itself .
The above form and its code work fine . The problem starts when I am trying to run the code of the Update button from another form .
You see , I have another form , through which I change the contents of some of the cells in the DataGridView control (back in Form1) . What I want next is to simply update the data base file itself , just like I was doing with the button in the first form , after I manually changed the cell in the DataGridView control .Thus , on the second form I have a button with this code :
Form1.Button1_Click(Nothing, Nothing) (of course the Click event is declared public)I have also tried :
Form1.Button1.PerformClick()
but still nothing ...Although Form2 successfully changes the cells back in Form1 , the data base file itself does not get updated ...If I manually press the Update button in Form1 I once again successfully update the data base file , but I want to do the whole thing by calling the Update button from Form2 .

I would like to be able to set Control visual properties such as color, boarder, flat style, etc. on the base class of the control so that as I add new instances of the control, each instance inherits the visual properties of the base. I have tried using Application Settings but it appears as though I need to reference an application setting manually each time I add the control to a form. This is a Windows Form question.

i frequently have troubles with the dock property. it seems that either the order of creation or adding to the parent control determines whether or not a control's dock property supersedes another's. e.g. a control with the dockstyle fill will overlap with another docked control on the same parent. does anyone know what the rules are to determine how docking will behave; particularly in dynamically created GUIs?

Is there a way to bind the text property of a control to an expression? I have a user control that I add to a FlowLayoutPanel. You can see I have 4 controls in the FlowLayoutPanel below. The first control is a LinkLabel and the other three are my user controls which are numbered 1, 2, & 3. I'd like to bind the label that shows the 1, 2, or 3 to the user controls index within the FlowLayoutPanel.
If I happen to remove the 2nd user control I want the 3rd user control to now display 2. I could use the FlowLayoutPanel ControlAdded or ControlRemoved events, but wanted to see if I could do some binding first.

If I need access to the value of a user control's property BEFORE PreRender, would I need to base the custom control off of one of the preexisting data controls (repeater, listview,etc.)?One of my user controls features a gridview control that is configured based on the user control's properties on which it resides. Several of the key properties alter the SQL Statement for the underlying recordsource. I'm now in a situation where the property that sets the WHERE statement for the SQL Statement needs to tied to a value in the user control's parent FormView. Think of the formview as displaying a customer detail record. The user control takes the customer's account number and then displays data from a related table such as Customer Contact Names. Since the gridview is created before the control's prerender event, working within the prerender event doesn't seem efficient.

I recently found an awesome tool called "Freemind" that is called a 'mind mapping' program. It's similar to MS Visio but way cooler and more automated.I reeeallly would like to integrate this into a VB.net Form, but how?
Has anyone seen or heard of mind mapping inside VB.net before? Are there programs out there already that work with VB.net or anyone have an example they have seen / built that works?
