My application uses 3 DataGridViews in asingle Windows form. The 3 are never visible at the same time, and I have a sityation that I cannot figure out. The first examole below works perfectly:
For Each row As DataGridViewRow In dgvBooks.Rows
If row.Cells(4).Value.ToString = "YES" Then
row.DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.Red
[code]....
The only difference in the 2 blocks of code is the name of the DataGridView. I'm at a complete loss to figure out why one works completely and the other only partially. I have checked the execution, one step at a time and everthing happened at the right time and accurately, The upper case string is correct as is rhe index designation of the field, and I'm lost for a reason.
In VB6, there was an issue of not being able to color just the tabs of the tab control. It appears this is still the case in .net, yes? Does anyone have a way to paint the tabs of the tab control
View 14 RepliesI wrote a small VB6 program to monitor the status of a Shared Network Drive. In this case it's an external hard drive. The drive is used for backup. The program is invoked automatically when the computer is booted and runs minimized.
If the backup drive is not turned on or otherwise not functional then the program changes from minimized to a normal window and displays various statistics and a warning that the backup drive isn't working.
I want to make the warning much more prominent, like minimizing the program that happens to be running or displaying the warning window in front of the progrmam that happens to be running. I want something really noticaeble. The computers don't have speakers so I can't play an warning.wav .
I have a lot of files in my computer.Here is an example: C:Data3023e4rMarch_20113023e4r_03112011_062334.docC:Data3023e4rMarch_20113023e4r_03142011_092301.docUnder the folder March_2011 has a lot of doc files. The file name string 3023e4r is the serial number,03112011 - the date created,062334- time created.I'm planning to have a text box,where i could enter the serial number. then it will display the files under March_2011.I want the filename string to be displayed in datagridview column with their respective heading(SErial number,date, & time)

View 21 RepliesSo I have a class that I use to filter the results of a datagridview in vb.net. And one of the things I want this class to do, is keep the column order, width, and visibility.
So what I do, is when my search class is instantiated, i create a copy of the columns in a hashtable, for later referencing.
Private dgv As DataGridView
Private dataSet As DataSet
Private bindingSource As New BindingSource
[Code].....
Using data binding and ado i am controlling a listbox selection (draws from an access database) based upon a combobox selection. Problem is i want to display more than just one column.The code i am currently using specifies the displaymember and value member on form load. However, i cant seem to be able to specify multiple display members.
Heres the code i am using on load.
Bindingsource1.datasource = a_dtBuilding
Listbox1.datasource=Bindingsource1
Listbox1.displaymember = "Building"
Im sure this is easily solved although i have read i should use a listview instead of a listbox for this.
It seems the only options available to do multi-color on a string is either a bunch of label controls cleverly grouped together or to use a RichTextBox and play with the font properties as text is added to the control.
What I am looking for instead is some kind of control that can render some style of control codes out as color. Consider bash codes:
NORMAL='e[0m'
GREEN='e[0;32m'
BLUE='e[0;34m'
echo -e "This text is ${GREEN}green${NORMAL} and this text is ${BLUE}blue${NORMAL}"
In the above, the words 'green' and 'blue' will be colorized with their respective colors. I was wondering if there was a control with some kind of feature like this, or will I have to code something myself?
Note, I only have the Express copy of VB 2010, and I would very much like to avoid third-party controls.
I have several questions/problems about Cursors.
1. I have a custom cursor that won't display in color, no matter what I do.
2. Can I have Animated Cursors?
3. Why doesn't VB.net support 32 bit cursors, but only 8 bit?
4. Can I have a cursor thats greater than 32x32?
The main problem is I couldn't display the result when I retrieve data from database.
1. On Picture 1 above, for the Dg_Details, I set the Columns in two type, textbox and checkbox. But, for the datagridview1, I didn't set anything.So, when I bind data from database to Dg_Details and datagridview1, the datagridview1 display the data from database, but the Dg_Details doesn't display the data. Below is the code I written in my form :
Try
objCommand = Me.MyConnection_F.open.CreateCommand
objCommand.CommandText = "select Reg_Num, Reg, Golf, Course_1, Course_2, Course_3, Course_4, Course_5 from Invoice_Reg where Receipt_No = '00001'"[code].....
I think that's happen because the Dg_Details already set and it blocked the result data from database.

I selected System->WindowFrame as my background color, but it always remains a dark grey, regardless of what I have my window color set to. How else would I achieve what I want? I assumed I was doing it the correct way. Do I actually need code that gets the system window color and then apply it?
