I am writing a simple code that will hide a window, or show a window if it has been hidden. I am using showwindow() to do so.
Private Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, ByVal nCmdShow As SHOW_WINDOW) As Boolean
<Flags()> Private Enum SHOW_WINDOW As Integer
SW_HIDE = 0[code].....
however the above will not bring/show the window that has been hidden.I assume showwindow works differently than how I expect to make it work? what is the proper way?
1. I have an array of windows handles (list of window handles) which are windows I want to minimize when I call the ShowWindow API. But when I call it it sometimes minimizes other windows which aren't the windows I had before. I'm guessing that window handles are changed when other windows are being opened, is there is any option to detect a window in other way? like identity or something like that?
2. I'm trying to change a window size by using the SetWindowPos, but the problem is that I'm using this API while I'm dragging a window which causes the window to change the size for a sec and then go back to the same size, how can I change the window size while I'm dragging it?
3. When a left mouse button is up I want to maximize a window, but when I'm using the ShowWindow API right after the left mose button is up it causes the window to maximize for a sec and then go back I could fix that adding a delay:[code...]
4. Another question, can anyone give me an example on how to put a window right behind other window? (I guess changing something in the Z order?) I already got the two windows handles.
currently I have a Customer Master screen. Inside the screen, I have a button which call the Customer sub window.
When I call the sub window, I want the set the cursor at Textbox1.
The problem is, when I call the window for 1st time, the cursor stops at Textbox1. When I call the window for 2nd or 3rd time, the cursor stops at other textbox or buttons inside the sub window.
Seems like Textbox1.focus is not working.

I have a form (FRMQUESTIONNAIRE). It contains, a listview table, a panel and picturebox, 2 combobox, 10 questions with 5 radio buttons each question ( A survey),A log number id (I just used Label in here) and 2 buttons ( save and skip).
Problem: When I click one item in listview table, the picture captured realted to the item click in listview table will be shown in panel beside it. However, the problem start to happen when the log ID is not appear accordingly based on user selection on listview table.
What I reckon start of the problem: - Previously The listview table(listview1) in frmquestionnaire was in frmqlist(another form). But to suit user requirement, it has to combined with frmquestionnaire. In frmqlist, I use a label Image. This form contains the similar details in frmquestionanire except there are no 2 combobox, 10 questions with 5 radio buttons each question ( A survey),A log number id (I just used Label in here) and 2 buttons ( save and skip) But it have a button(Proceed to survey). Having said that, when user click an item in listview(Frmqlist), the picture will be shown beside it. User will click button proceed to survey and frmquestionnaire will pop up. Here, It shows the correct Log ID based on user selection in frmqlist.
But now....
I have combine everything in frmquestionnaire. I am facing as the LOG ID is not showing according to the selection. As a result, I can't save the questionnaire answer as well as this log will be used to save in database.

I have a form with lots of textbox, and a dateTimePicker. All of these controls are binded to a JoinTableDataBindingSource. So when I wanted to insert a new value or update the values, I have to rebind all these controls to the respective tableBindingSource.So after saving all the values to database, I rebind them again to the JoinTableBindingSource to display the values accordingly.
All these works perfectly until I tried to bind the DateTimePicker. I am able to show the Date, insert new values to Date, and updating date.However, after all the binding and rebinding,whenever I tried to call tblJoinTruckTableAdapter.Fill (me.dataset. tblJoinTruck), All the textbox.Text becomes "Nothing". I am unable to show the values in the textbox.
Everything works when I commented off the binding and rebinding of dateTimePicker. I seriously have no idea what had happen.Below is the binding and rebinding of my dateTimePicker.'I have clear the databinding before adding this to point it back to its respective table.
dtpTareDate.DataBindings.Add( New Binding("Value", TblTruckBindingSource, "dtTareDateTime"))
'After inserting or updating the values, I clear the binding and rebind it back to tblJoinTable.

How can I show a Window on the first startup of the application that isn't the main form?I just want to show a window on the first startup with a textbox and a submit button. To get to the main form, the user must enter at least 10 characters into that textbox. The startup form is then always just the main form if they get it right. If there isn't 10 characters when submit is pressed, the program exits.
It needs to be reasonably secure, ie not just a text file in the same folder called 'unlocked' or something.Preferably a hidden registry entry to store whether the main form has been unlocked or not.

to be so simple turns out to have me scratching my head.I have a program that monitors input inside of Quickbooks. When a customer is entered into a sales order my program checks my database for any special information and if it exists, opens a TopMost window to the lower third of the screen with the information showing that is special to that customer. The problem I have is that when the customer is found and the window opens, focus is taken away from Quickbooks and given to my newly opened form. Is there a way to prevent this so that the users input isn't interrupted?
With frmMessage .Width = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Width .TopMost = True
