I was using VB 2008 to code using applications. An example of something I coded was hangman. I was wondering if its possible to somehow use the application code and apply it to a form.So for example with the code below how would one go about putting into a form? If this isn't possible, what are the main difference between form/application coding? How would I go about coding hangman for example on a form, what are the main difference between the two??
I am currently writing a program in Visual Basic 2008 express edition to read and write to tags on an Omron PLC. I am using the DeviceXPlorer OPC Server V4.1.1.1 program to connect to the Omron PLC. I have made two programs, one is a form program which works fine, two is a windows service program where it does not let me connect to the OPC Server. The connection code is identical, the only difference is the windows service code is called by a timer. The timer works fines and jumps into the connection code, but stops at the line
I have a small VB.NET application built using VS 2008 and .NET 3.5.Very simply, there is a timer that kicks off every few seconds to download an XML stream from the web. I look at this stream and manipulate it.The problem I am facing is that the remote web server may not respond in a timely fashion to the following line of

How can I implement asynchronous calls so that the my application can behave without locking up?
I'm playing with a simple string replacement editor for editing VB.Net functions outside of VB. Is there a way to apply VB.Net code formatting to a string?
For example. The txtboxCodeEntry looks like this:
If strVar="dummy" then 1 else 0 Endif
I would like it to "autoformat" to:
If strVar = "dummy" Then 1 Else 0 End If
The formatting would match whatever formatting VB.Net does when you're editing code in the Visual Studio IDE.
Is there a way to apply any changes made to an entire application and not just the open (active) form that you are in? I.E. I change the backcolor to a color from a color dialog. I want that chosen color to be applied to all the forms' backcolor in my project. Can this also then be applied to all the other controls' backcolor? The code that I posted works but all forms and controls have to have the changes applied to each one separately.
Between testing sessions on my windows service, I'm changing code (little tweaks here and there). For more detailed debugging, I've had the application send messages to a text file everytime it does something (executes a new procedure, catches an exception, etc).
I've been doing this for a while, but ever since yesterday, it appeared that the new code wasn't being used. To test this, I changed the name and location of the log file that the service would use, and re-installed it shortly after a new successful build. As it turns out, the service is writing only 1 message (about a timer being started - which is only supposed to happen after it's logged the start of the service) to the old text file. It looks to me like my service isn't using the new code in my Service1.vb file, Like the old code has been cached or something, and the service is installing from that.
I am programming in VB 2010 and have a question. I have some code that currently only applies to one text box. As you will see, I have sub setup to handle multiple textbox events. My question being, Is there a way to take this code and apply it to all textboxes that are being handled?
VBCode:
Private Sub TextBoxes_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles fnameTxBx.TextChanged, _ lnameTxBx.TextChanged, streetTxBx.TextChanged, cityTxBx.TextChanged Dim theText As String = fnameTxBx.Text
First of all, I hope my intention is not missconcept.I would like to add an update from the internet mechanism for my newly VB.NET application.The idea is simple. That is, I ZIP all of the binary that need to be changed, upload it in my own hosting site, and download it using my Update Application, extract and overwrite the existing binary.
It works, quite well. But the problem is, the size of the binary itself is quite big (around 36MB). I am thinking of patches. That is, can we upload only the patch file, it surely make the download small isn't?
iam working on windows application using vb.neti developed a patient information system it is working well but i have to improve the look and feel of my application using themeshow to apply themes for my forms like windows themes for each and every control
I am already familliar with applying an image to a form background. My application has many in it, but I want to give the user the option of browsing for an image of their own to apply to a form. I don't intend to save the images as defaults or anything. Just the option to browse and apply to a form.
I show forms in a SplitContainer Panel, but since the FormBorderStyle is set to none I'd like to apply a drop shadow. The following code works perfect if the form is not inside the panel
Protected Overrides ReadOnly Property CreateParams() As System.Windows.Forms.CreateParams Get
I have a VS 2005 VB.NET Windows forms application that is exhibiting very strange behavior. I can add controls to any of my forms and see them at design time, however when I run the application, it resorts to "old" copies of the forms without the new modifications. Also, the application does not seem to be firiing the correct events - when I put a break on the Form_Load event of my main form - it never fires the event when the application runs. If I change the project settings to start with a new form - it does not recognize the change. Something strange is going on and I am quite frsutrated trying to figure it out.
I need to convert the following code to work in a visual studio 2008 windows form application, the moment ObjectQuery, ManagementObjectSearcher, ManagementObject and ManagementObjectCollection are not valid.
im objectQuery As New ObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_NetworkAdapter WHERE NetConnectionId IS NOT NULL") Dim searcher As New ManagementObjectSearcher(Scope, objectQuery)
I've been working on a project the last couple of day with the help of a lot of you out there. I've more or less finished the design of the interfase, but there are stange this happening with the form. I can say much about what is wrong because I dont understand it, but I would like to. I have added the form Class code and the Designer Code, is that enough or is more required? Theres a msgbox that popup in the form Load event which I placed there to see what I could learn about the GraphicsBuffer.
using one form information to be transferred to a second form the code becomes invalid after an validation error has arisen from the first form (ie no adult passengers was selected and the error message was displayed) when corrected the information to be transferred become incorrect as the information is transferred without the correction.
