Utility That Allows The User To Edit Jump List Entries?
Jul 29, 2011
I want to make a utility that allows the user to edit Jump List entries. There is some kind of tie between the raw junplist filenamess and the app, for instance:
Excel = cdf30b95c55fd785
Word = adecfb853d77462a
Those were found by trial and error and there are a few more on the net.
For MS Word the file is "C:UsersusernameAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsRecentAutomaticDestinationsadecfb853d77462a.automaticDestinations-ms"
What I'm wondering is if anyone knows how to determine what filenames go with what program. Deciphering the files will be another issue for sure

I have a form that adds new contacts. New contacts are added by pressing an appropriate button and they appear as an entry in the list on the form. I try now to add an edit button that will edit existing entries.User will select a given entry on the list and press edit button and will be presented with an appropriate form (AddContFrm).Right now it simply adds another entry with the same title. Logic is handled in a class called Contact.vb Here is my code.
Public Class Contact
Public Contact As String
Public Title As String[code]....

am trying trying to write some code for a ComboBox that does the following:
1. Allow the user to enter text into the combo box to type entries contained in the list source.
2. Enable autocomplete to assist the user in selecting entries in the list source, both from dropped down state and non dropped down state.
3. Restrict the user from typing an entry that doesn't exist in the list source.
My requirements are:
1. The ComboBox must run some code after a selection has been made or the user has finished typing an entry (not after the focus has been moved to another control)
2. The code must only run once after the user has made a selection from the combobox or has finished typing an entry
The problem: To achieve the above functionality, I had to run code on numerous event's. Sureley there is a better way, here are the events and the reason for the code:
SelectedIndexChanged:This is the code that is run when the user makes a selection. No Mystery here
KeyDown:
Must Run
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Return Then
ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(Nothing, Nothing)
End If

I have written code to download a webpage HTML source code into a .txt file, once downloaded, the code I posted here adds all lines as strings into a list and is supposed to find an anchor point as a position reference and then jump down the list to the real keyword.
I have an anchor point in this list that is a constant that I will always "know of" but I need to jump down 3 lines below this anchor point to the real keyword I'm looking for that is always "unknown to me" since it's a variable.
My anchor point is the keyword Hair Color which both the words and the line they're on are unique in the entire source code. My target keyword is the variable Brown (in this case), that I can't target directly because neither it nor the line it's on are unique and will change from query to query. The HTML table source code like the one below is always structured the same but some pages may vary in layout depending on the keywords applicable on the webpage. The code structure below however is always a constant, you can always count on all the webpages that the keyword Hair Color is always the 3 line into the table row and its variable is always 3 lines below that. So even though the answer I'm looking for is always 3 lines below my anchor point, my anchor point will not always be on the same line of code in the source code.
HTML code in the .txt file:
<tr>
<td class="paramname">
<b>Hair Color</b>
[Code].....
I may not be using the code correctly, through my attempts I don't know how to do that jump.
how to "skip" or "jump" down lines in my list by predefinition like: "ok, I found my anchor point, now I'm supposed to jump down 3 lines and pass what ever I find there to a string!""ok, I found my anchor point, now I'm supposed to go to the second instance of the keyword Brown from here that I find and pass what ever I find there to a string!"

When a compile fails in VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008, an Error List pops up at the bottom of the screen. To jump to an error, I double click on an error in the error list. Is there a shortcut to automatically jump to the next error in the list? It gets a little bit tedious at times having to reach down and double click a list that I like to keep collapsed.

Instead of a UDT containing a string variant ie If .view="Left" then
Can it be changed to a list of defined entries in the UDT If .view.Left then
I could define the subentities as boolean but each time I change one I would have to change the others
.view.Left = True
.view.Right=False
.view.Top=False
It would just make coding a bit faster. I don't know if it's possible but I've been surprised in the past when I didn't think something was possible.

i have an access 2007 database in wich i have a table named abc_PersonalLog, wich also has three columns: Id (auto number), StarDate (text) and LogEntry (Memo). It is a Diary application. So, when the user makes a log entry, the StarDate column receives a string formed of concatenated year, month and day, i.e. if date is 20th march 2012, the string will be 120320, and the Log entry column, the text entered by user in a textbox.My problem is that, somehow, i have to retrieve that data, when the user will want to read log entries he made. I managed to assign the text property of a label to the LogEntry text for a given date.But, if the user makes multiple entries in a single day, the table will have several rows containing the same string in the StarDate field, but different text in the LogEntry fields. How can i display ALL the LogEntry texts for all the rows containing the same StarDate value? Here is my code so far:

I am to make a program that lets the user save certain data values with a delimiter(":") to a text file(done) Example of data entries [code]Then i am to load those values to a listbox , i was able to do that as well and i include the delimiter when i load the values.Now i am supposed to let the user enter any month/year value for date(mm/yyyy) such as 06/2010 and if any of the entries match the search string then either the program selects those values in the listbox or a popup msgbox is used to show the entries. How the result is displayed is a little irrelevant, but how do i search and atleast select the matching entries in the listbox ? and not just the first instance but all instances of the search string.

I have a program where you have three entries, CD name, artist, price and it goes into a listbox and .txt file when closing. I have to have a message box if you enter the same CD name. I have a code to open the .txt file and compare strings but I need to change it to compare only the CD name and not all three entries. Is there a way to do my string compare against my listbox without opening the .txt file?? The program loads the listbox from the .txt file when opening. Private Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click' adds CD information to the list box
' declare variables
Dim strName As String
Dim strArtist As String
Dim strPrice As String

I want to set a certain column to true or false automatically based on what value another column has entered. I managed to get this working by myself using the 'SQL Pane' in VB and testing it by using execute sql but I don't know what to do now. I assumed that I could just save it and it would work from there but that's not the case, it dissapears from the SQL Pane if I close the project (even though it worked fine when I ran the project the first time), so where do I put it/what do I do with it in order to get this to work?

Hi, I'm working on a program that reads text entered into a textbox and creates a list of items by separating entries by commas. Everything is working fine, except, because I am using an array to store the items in the list, I have a limited number of entries. This is only a problem because, as it is written currently, each comma counts as an individual entry. Therefore, users can enter ",,," for example, and it would use up 3 places in the array.
I'm looking for a way to check to make sure there is text after the comma before adding an entry. I've attempted to use the .substring command to check the character after, which works until it gets to the last character. Because there is no character after that, it will give an error.
Here is my code for extra clarity:
Public Class frmMain
Dim intCounter As Integer 'Stores the # of commas in the string
Dim Messages(49) As MessageProperties

So I have a list of names in a .txt file. Where is a place I can type in all the names I want and press save and get a link so they can see the list. Then I can remove a name and press save and the name will be gone. And or add a name. So basically I need a website where I can type something and keep it uptodate. I've tried ripway but after you edit the list and save it it doesn't change.

I have a combobox (combobox1) with a list of countries, Canada, USA, UK as an example. For each country I have a textfile of cities. I choose a country, which populates combobox2 .i.e. I select Canada from combobox1. Combobox2 shows cities for Canada. I also have a button 'Edit Cities' What I want to accomplish is the following:Open some type of text editor (like notepad) and allow the user to either delete or add items to the list of cities then re-save the file back to the resources folder of my program. I have been successful in reading the textfile to a messagebox but of course can't do anything with it.
Here is a code snipet I have so far:
Private Sub btnEdit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEdit.Click
If combobox1.SelectedIndex = 0 Then
Dim fileReader As String

Using Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008, I have created a Windows form with multiple tabs and questions. Each question has an associated drop-down listbox that the user will eventually click on to enter his or her response. My client has now informed me that she wants to change the standard responses in each response box. There are well over 100 drop-down listboxes, all with the same items, and they all must be changed.
I originally inputted the items using design view. Would someone please tell me if it's possible to edit all of these boxes in the design view simultaneously? When I control + click on more than one box, the Edit Items option that is normally available disappears. Is there a way to do it in code in a manner that would save back into design view?

In my project, I want to use Coordinates of a place (eg; London) which is selected from a list of several thousands of coordinates of places.
I thought of using comboBox / ListBox to display the list of the coordinates of places.
I want to know how to make this "editable"; ie: anyone using this program should be able to Edit / Add / Delete a coordinates of a place. And the newly added Place should be saved so that he/she can use it whenever it is needed.

I want to create a page name "parameter link" where the user can edit and change the value of the threshold. For now, what I have is, all user can change the threshold permanently. What I want now is the user can only change the threshold value during the session only, and the value will reset back to the previous value when the other user login. Only admin will have the privilege to change the value of the threshold permanently., but I don't know where to start.

I have an editable ComboBox with a validation on the Text property to make sure manually entered info is valid.EDIT: All I want to do is populate the .Text property with the ValueMember of a selection rather than the DisplayMember I also have the .Items populated with valid entries having the DisplayMember and ValueMember set.My DisplayMember is a caption along with the data, and the ValueMember is the data itself.So Items might be:
(DisplayMember, ValueMember)
"Foo - 1ab2" , "1ab2"
"Bar - 3cd4" , "3cd4"
I had a validation on the text which can also validate manual user input like "5ef6" The problem I'm having is that if the user selects an item from the combobox it populates the text field with the DisplayMember property (ex: "Foo - 1ab2") which will fail validation.I have tried to manually set the .Text property with the SelectedValue or the SelectedItem.Value on each of the three relevant combobox events to no avail.I would like that the .Text of the ComboBox get populated with the .ValueMember of the item when selected rather than the .DisplayMember
EDIT: I cannot validate by trying to extrapolate the value from the caption. I send the Text off to a service to be validated.
void FillMyCombo
{
KeyValuePair<string, string> listValue1 = new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Foo - 1ab2" , "1ab2")
KeyValuePair<string, string> listValue2 = new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Bar - 3cd4" , "3cd4")
[code].....
The user can manually enter something like "5ef6" which will pass validation.But when they select an item from the list, rather than manually entering it, the .Text property gets filled with the caption and not the value ... so it will contain "Foo - 1ab2" and that will fail validation. I cannot change the validation method to "infer" the value from the caption. I have no control over that service. All I'm after is the displayed value EDIT: Say a user selects "Foo - 1ab2" from the dropdown list, I want the text in the box to say "1ab2" EDIT: I have also tried to set the .Text property in code but I can't seem to make it work in any of the ComboBox events. how to programmaticly set the .Text property (and make it commit!) on a selection event they will also answer this question.

I'm currently generating some excel files using vb.net (2008). I want to protect the workbook or sheet inside, so that the user cannot edit anything within the file.I tried some options from MSDN but no luck and some other forums but no luck.The following is my last few lines of code in the program.
Code:
ExcelReport = New Excel.ApplicationClass
ExcelReport.Workbooks(1).SaveAs(ExcelFileName)
I basically don't want the user to edit anything inside the file. Perhaps a printout is allowed.

I would like some info on how to do a procedure. In my program when a user hits the Edit Command button I would like for the program to display a popup Textbox where he/she can input data and store it. Then the data will be linked to the comments box, once the user hits the save button. Also the popup textbox disappears after the user is done entering the data.
