Use The ExceptionMessageBox To Prompt User That A Field Is Required?
Sep 16, 2011
I'm trying to use the ExceptionMessageBox to prompt a user that a field is required. I'm getting a syntax error saying "Type 'ExceptionMessageBox' is not defined". I added the ExceptionMessageBox as a reference, but still has that same error. I'm using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express.
Here's the code:
The bolded part is where I'm getting an error.
Try
If rptAcctNo = 0 Then
Throw New ApplicationException("Error occurred")
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 need to set validation on a textbox where the user types in their email address... This is not a required field though so I want to allow the form to be submitted if the textbox contains the default text ("Email address").I've posted the code i have already to ensure a valid email address is typed.
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator CssClass="errorpopup" Display="Dynamic" ID="regexpEmail" ValidationGroup="mySubmit" runat="server" ErrorMessage="<strong>Please enter a valid email address.</strong>" ControlToValidate="tbEmail" ValidationExpression="w+([-+.']w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)*" SetFocusOnError="true" />
I'm using VB 2008 with .Net 3.5 and I want to check that a combo box has a selected value greater than 0 (default = Nothing Selected) before allowing the user to move off the tab page to another tab page. The Leave event does not allow me to cancel and the Validating event on the tab page does not fire unless the user has at least visited the combo box field.
How can I do it so every time the user loads my application it will automatically (without prompt, or user selecting) upload all the files in a folder i select beforehand and add them into ListBox1

I need to prompt the user to input a few key/value items.Instead of building a form with a bunch of label + textbox, I figured I could use a simple, unbound grid.
I know the ListView widget can be displayed as a grid, but it appears that some added code is needed to make it behave that way.If you've investigated the matter recently, which solution did you end up using?
I'd like for my application to prompt for user credentials as soon as it starts. The reason for this being that it is an app for our IT Helpdesk that will be run on user's machines, and I need to make sure it is always run with administrator credentials.

I'm trying to figure out how to prompt a user to enter a captcha. Some programs out there have a little popup with the captcha image and a textbox, the user then enters the characters from the image and the captcha is solved by the user of the application. When I try to request the image directly, it gives me a different image than the one currently in the webbrowser control. Any ideas how I can create the pop up of this captcha image for the user to enter?
Note : . I'm looking for a way to prompt the user to enter a captcha from website.
I'm writing the following bits of code for a SaveFile Dialog box in Visual Basic 2010.NET. The code works well as the XLSX file is created and opens in Microsoft Excel. However, the problem that I am having is that if the program overwrites a file, the user is getting two prompts. One prompt is from the program's own SaveFile dialog confirming the choice. The other is from Microsoft Excel asking you the same. It's as if the program is running in the background. Does anyone know how I can write this code to save the file as an Excel file? [Code]

I know how to add an exit button with a prompt. However, I do not have the slightest cluse as to how I can add this same functionality to the window so that if the user clicks the X in the upper right corner, there is a prompt message confirming the user needs to exit.I added a form closing event but getting wrong results, the form closes if I click no and message window does not leave when I click yes to stay.
Code:
Private Sub frmTest_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing If (MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Close Form", _ MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) = _
Is there any way to use a VB form to supply user credentials to the Runas command in command prompt? I basically need something exactly the same as the GUI for RunAs but just for Internet Explorer (yes I know you can right click and go RunAs but that cant be done in this case). So the user would open this VB form, type their username and password in, hit OK and it would open Internet Explorer with their credentials (they log in under a generic account used by many people).

I've written a program using Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition in Visual Basic. It's a Windows Forms Application. The program is very simple, it just reads a directory of text files, parses the text and outputs another text file as .CSV file for import into Excel. There's no user interaction required but it never displays the form and therefore the progress bar. If I put a GO button on the form and modify the program so that the subroutine that does the processing isn't called until the user clicks GO it shows the form and the progress bar etc. How can I make the program run at startup, show the form, show the progress bar and then pause for 10 seconds or so and then exit?

I am building a program where all the inputs (10) required from the user are asked on one form. Since it is not possible to let fields blank on the database, I would like to know how can I build an 'IF' saying that if all fields are full, then the database CAN save all the input. So that if there are any field blank, it won't save. I just dont know how to do the database condition. Thats all.
I'm writing a small application to detect the insertion of USB memory sticks and prompt the user to accept the device or reject it. Rejecting it would prevent its being loaded by Windows. I have the code that detects insertion & removal working fine but have no idea how to cancel the insertion.I was thinking that I could intercept the DEVICEARRIVAL message and kill it off before its actioned by Windows but I am lost with this.code to show the way.Heres the main part of the code I have so far-
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As System.Windows.Forms.Message) 'This kills off any 'autoplay' capability in the stick If QueryCancelAutoPlay = 0 Then[code]......
It's probably the most basic of things, but all I can find is how to launch a program, and not with the interactions I desire. Any tips as to the terms to use to search for answers, or links to topics regarding questions similar to mine, would be very appreciated. I have a wealth of info to read through, but I could use your knowledge to save myself time.Here is what I am trying to do:
Use a Button (A) to Launch a Prompt where User Selects Directory Path to an executable Program. The Selection is to be Persistent after the initial selection (saved in a settings file i assume?), and the Selected Path (or just "programname.exe") is to be Displayed in a Text Field (B). Launch Selected and Indicated Program via a Launch Button (C)
I'm trying to code an 'increase' button to prompt a user to input a rate by which to increase select prices in an array.It should request the increased rate, then request a number from one to five, representing which price in the array to increase.Then, if 'increase' button is selected again and another number from one to five is chosen, then that element should be increased.It's working, but all the numbers in the array are changed. And, when I hit the increase button again, the array is repopulated below the first price increases instead of only replacing the designated price.
'declare 5 element array of prices Dim prices() As Double = {12.2, 8.5, 12, 50, 2.4} Dim rateIncrease As Decimal Dim isConverted As Boolean
