I'm using vb.net. Basically, I have a drop down list, text box and a submit button. You choose a movie director from a drop down list, then type in a movie, click button and it adds the data to my database.There's another button which hides/shows drop down list, text box and submit button using Visible = True and Visible = False, but what I don't like about it is when it hides the things I said before, it leaves some white/empty space like if they are still there, but not visible.Is there anyway to put some kind of holder/container and place a button which when clicked could add my drop down list, text box and submit buttons to that place?
Is there a better way to make a form with multiple buttons opening different things than having a form that has lots group boxes for each tab. So in the begining each box will be invisible and when you click the button the corresponding group box will become visible. Is there any other way?It will be like a background image and it'll have buttons that will mask it with invisible buttons. when the button is clicked it will open the corresponding group box.
Im trying to make a program that allows the user to view additional information via moving the cursor over the label to view (make visble) additional information, in the form of text boxes and/or picture boxes. How will i go about doing this?
am designing a project in vb 2008 but i would like you to help me a code that adds items in a combobox with a drop down and also a code that clears all text boxes in a form if i click a refresh button.
I am creating an application with html using vb as the back end. Microsoft Visual Studio is the application I am using.I have two drop down boxes...one called department, the other program. When a department is selected, I want the program dropdown to only display the programs that are associated with the department chosen. I have found several different codes to do this but nothing has worked so far.
I have a form with several listviews. 1 master with two columns and 10 other all with two columns. I have been able to do a drop from 1 to the others and among the others. I want to move the second column around also. I can't read the subite.
In VB.Net 2010, is there any way to do multi-select in a drop-down/combobox, preferably with check boxes in the drop down? I've seen various discussions on the 'net about this but no such beast appears to exist within the tool.?
I have a pop up form that contains a listbox. Right now I am telling it exactly which text boxes I want to be able to drag and drop to, but I was just told to have it drag and drop to every text box on the main form.The main form with the text boxes has a bunch of tabs on it that hold each section. Each section has text boxes, so how would I code it so they are all capable of allowing drag/drop without specifying each one separately?
This is the code from my pop up form:
vb Private Sub txtDropIn_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Dim DropInTextbox As TextBox = CType(sender, TextBox) Dim TextToDrop As String = CStr(e.Data.GetData(GetType(String))) 'get rid of leading " - " if there isn't 'anything in the textbox If String.IsNullOrEmpty(MainWin.TextBox1.Text) Then TextToDrop = TextToDrop.TrimStart(CChar(" -
I am trying to generate buttons and allow the user to drag and drop them.I have this sub:Sub Form1_MouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseClick
[Code]...
Also if I declare the nodebtn as a global variable, I do not face this problem, the button is dragable. However when I click to add new buttons, no new button is generated, instead a button is generated with the count on it. Am I tackling this problem of drag and drop in the right manner or am I completely wrong at this.
I am trying to get 2 group boxes with radio buttons. I would like to check a radio button in group box 1 and have a corresponding radio button in group set 2 get automatically checked based on what I check in group box1. I am trying to do this in VB.
I am new to vb and I have a question about button and images. I need to know how to connect images with buttons. So when I click a certain button the image must show up. One button is suppose to show three different images in three different image boxes. So how I can connect buttons with image boxes.
I'm creating a windows form application, which contains radio buttons, that when checked and the button is clicked, display a certain image in an image box based on which radio button was checked. I'm having trouble with assigning the certain image to the radio button. Can I use If/ElseIf statements?
I have to create a program for customers buying a new care can pick options for that car.The starting cost of the car is $26,000Im having trouble figuring out where to add the starting value. And also, how will i calculate all the options into the total along with the tax.

I have two list boxes. A users selects a value from each, clicks a button and the application creates a relationship between the two selected items by saving them in an array and displaying the relationship in a third list box.
What I want to allow is for users to be able to drag a value from one list box and drop it on top of another value. I have the code to capture the value of the item dragged but I don't see how to capture the item that the data is dropped onto.
Is there a way to capture the targeted selected item?
May i know is there any methods apart from the method that i have to detect drag and drop buttons when u create them at run time?the code that i have is
For Each ctl As Control In PictureBox1.Controls If TypeOf ctl Is BlinkButton Then
i know is there any simpler ways of coding to enable the user to drag and drop button and this button will toggle the background color when the condition is true. So which means to say i need to know where can i place the main program code in the code block.There will also be a provision for the user to delete the button control at runtime.
Okay, here's my dilemma. I want certain applications to run when they are checked in a check box and when the submit button is pressed. I already know that you can launch an application by using
I am currently trying to allocate a number of group boxes dynamically. Previously (in other languages) when I have carried out something like this I have used the '&' to substitute the contents of the variable direct into the code I.E
For I = 1 to 20 Groupboxname = "GroupBox"+I Weatherstates.&groupbox.controlls.add(obutton) next
This would then have the result of creating a button in all the group boxes, however this does not appear to work in VB .net 2010
I have looked at Directcast, but i am a even more confused. Is there a simple way to substitute the contents of a variable into the code ?
I've coded a Login form with two text boxes and two buttons goes to a Users database to validate the userid and password. When I click the OK button (button1) I get an error message on the highlighted line below(Dim Reader).
It states that no value is given for one or more required parameters. What parameters are they talking about?[code...]
I am having trouble coming up with a way to add a selected radio button in a selected group box together.I have 3 group boxes each accessed by a checkbox within each group box there is 3 to 4 radio buttons. I would like to know how to add the selected radio buttons in each group box together and display them in a textbox by clicking a button "calculate". I believe I would have to make a global variable but I dont know where to start.
Private Sub Calculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Calculatebtn.Click Dim answer As String
[code]....
I know this code is wrong but I was just trying to remember the calculate function.Is there a command that uses the selected radio button from the group boxes then I would be able to input that into my calculate button sub?
I understand because it has to be ON/OFF it won't go through to any other radio buttons in the group box. Would the best way is to use a hidden radio button that would switch control between the two? There's only two radio buttons i need to tab through, what's the best way to tackle this?
I have 8 check boxes and 4 radio buttons on a child form. When the User checks a Check Box, they then select a radio button. They will do this for 1 to 8 of the check boxes. The only way I could think of to keep track of this is create 8 panels with 4 unique radio buttons in each. Then I would set the visibility to each one accordingly. This method has other logistical errors than just trying to get the design view worked out.
I was wondering if there was a way to just use the radio buttons. I thought I could set a boolean variable to keep track of each Check Box's Radio buttons. Or an integer variable. For instance, if Check Box 1 is checked and Radio Button 1 is checked then myVariable's value is 1 or whatever. Then when I actually run the app, I can check the value of the variable do do what I need. Does this sounds plausible?
I'm working on a Visual Basic application in Visual Studio 2010. The application was originally created in VB6, which had a dedicated menu button editor. Now I need to add new drop-down items to my button menus, but VS10 seems to have no facility for this. All attempts so far appear to lead me to tool strip support, which I do not want.
I have a form with a large GroupBox on it. Inside there are a total of 22 buttons, arranged in two columns of 11. These buttons are basically shortcuts that can be defined by the user. I would like to allow the user to rearrange these buttons by some simple means. (Drag and Drop being ideal.) I have the following code, which allows me to drag the buttons around:
