Also, I wonder how I can use each of the controls included in the groupbox, while I can't name them or something...

View 1 RepliesI am creating a program that will help in upload files to a website. One of the things that the website uses is the "Upload File" button. When you push it an "Open" dialog box opens (like OpenFileDialoge). What I want the program to do is auto fill in the direct file location for the website. So that the dialog box won't open or won't need input.

How do I name a variable depending on what is in the textbox?
Like would it look like:
Dim (textbox.text) as string
etc.
The reason I want to do this is because the user is gonna click a button to create a task. When the button is pushed, a label is created by the code I already have, the problem is, I want them to be able to click the button more then once and new labels will appear below the one that just was there. By being able to name a variable by what is in the textbox, I will be able to do so many things.
I have DateTimePicker where user can choose a date and make entry. I then record this entry into the database. My application date shows 08-02-2012 (i.e., 08 february 2012 in DTPicker value), when I select this and insert it to my database, the MS Access takes this as August, 2 2012, and records it as the same.
I could fix this by using this code:
Dim mydate As DateTime
mydate = Me.dtpicker10.Value.ToShortDateString
Dim output1 As String = Format(mydate, "MM-dd-yyy")
and pass sql insert query using
insert into table (mydate) VALUES (#" & output1 & "#)
Instead of getting the value directly from the dtpicker. This fix the issues, but when I tried to get the date out of the database to filter it between entry made in certain date, I sometimes have problem. How do I generalize this for all type of client computers where the date and time settings can be any form. What will be the best and more flawless ways of approach to target all types of clients? Am I on the right track?
Ok so I can't figure out how to make it so that on my application users cannot just click "submit" without choosing a radio/option button & filling out the username + password field ?? Using VB 08 BTW.

I am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

Isn't it time to make a separate section for Visual Basic 10 users? For example when looking for the MID string function there are a lot of complaints that it is not implemented in VB, whereas in VB 10 it is.Perhaps a good idea to filter out the VB6 items in a VB10 section?

Im trying to build an activeX control to be used in excel using VB08 Xpress addition. I have found instructions to create a Class Library Project, then add a user control. Under Build there is only one option, Build "Project Name", no options, no nothing. The build creates a .dll file not an ocx (which I was expecting?)
The problem is that when I compile the control I get a .dll file that I cant register as a activeX control, therefore I cant use it in excel. Ive tried to create stupidly simple activeX controls, ie one label that says "Hello World", still no luck. When I try and register the .dll file, it doest work, therefore no dice with excel.
The strange thing is that within VB08 Xpress I can use the control in any Windows Form Application I create.
I want to make a extractor/installer for example the users will press Install and it will extract myprogram.exe at C:/windows/system32/ automatically when they press install.
