For those that are having problems using VB with other technologies or finding samples/content or requesting new VB Language features then there is another way to provide this feedback to Microsoft so that we can work to provide useful content.[URL]..These posts will be actively monitored by Microsoft product team members who are interested to hear from developers.
View 1 RepliesWe are in the process of creating active-x controls used within our application. Since Microsoft stopped supporting classic Visual Basic, is it wise to use Visual Basic to develop the Active X control or the latest VC++/ATL/MFC libraries provide more feature where we can create controls faster by leaving Visual Basic flexibility?
We will not be able to use .NET/VB.NET/C# since the application is supposed to work inside containers and containers may not support latest .NET runtime.
I want to add a control in winforms that drops like combo box but can show data like datagridview. I have seen this control in an application but not able to find a way how to do it. (Pic attached)

Request is not available in this context

I would like to check if a URL exists -- without requesting the file. The program needs to check if a PDF or Excel spreadsheet exists at a particular URL. If it does, it might want to download the file, but it should not download it every time.
I currently use the WebBrowser.Navigate method to do this, but it always downloads the file. But I don't want to actually download the .pdf or .xls file, I just want to determine if the URL exists.
I'm creating a VB program to run a psychology experiment and I'm pretty close to done but am running into a few problems. The experiment consists of 8 phases that display on a single form but with different stimuli (pictures and text) being displayed on the form. So for example, at the top of the form would appear "dog" and below that in the center of the screen would appear the word "cat" and then the subject would select one of two option buttons, one being on the bottom left of the screen and one being on the bottom right of the screen.
One option button is labeled "Similar" and the other is labeled "Opposite". I also have corrective feedback displayed after each choice is made. Here are the things I have not figured out

I want to make a simple application on Windows XP with a single button which says "Help" - that will launch Windows Messenger's Remote Assistance and connect to my MSN Messenger ID - this is detailed here: [URL]. This is for my Dad or Mom who sometimes get confused when the Firefox UI resets itself or something other similarly catastrophic happens. I am familiar with the Windows programming model but am unsure on how to go about it - I would like to do this in C# or even VB.net.

View 1 RepliesFirst good Monday to all and thanks for the suggestions on path I got it working somewhat.Problem: When a user clicks the comment button I would like outlook client to open so they can submit their comments. We run outlook client 2010 and exchange 2010 server. The Network Administrator is somewhat helpful but I am responsible for coding. Code specifics needed, did some research but not a lot of examples. I originally designed a cute little form with pages that folks could view to answer questions about how to use office software, the boss saw it and now they want more.
