Visual Studio 2008 - .net Findwindow/findwindowex : Finding This Window's Label When The Control Name Is The Same As All The Other Labels On The Program?
Oct 11, 2010
i am trying to figure out how to go about finding this window's label when the control name is the same as all the other labels on the program.

All 3 labels are named the same. The one i am most interested in is a progress % counter (1%, 2%, 3%, etc..)How can i get the value (using a timer of course) from that label without knowing the caption of it at any given time?

Does anybody know what is the equivalent of findwindow or findwindex in vb.net. Here is what I am trying to do. I am reading a Real Time Adherence window that is dynamic(assumption) and is constantly refreshing. I have tried Findwindow and Findwindowex although I am able to get to the MDIclient and then to the window there is no "edit" field for me to read off. I have tried Spy++ and it also sees it but it does not have an available control for me to read the information.

I am developing an application that reads an MDI applications child window and grabs the information from a control such as a textbox or listbox. I have tried to use Findwindow in order to accomplish this. I have gotten all the way to the control, but once I get there it returns blank. Can anyone point me in the right direction to accomplish this.I am able to read the window title and get the control title but when I send a message to the window it returns 0. Now I am just experimenting so I have no concrete code, but here is a snippet.
Some of the code I have gotten online.

I am trying to make a console program in Visual Basic on Visual Studio 2008. I want to ask the user of the program if he wants the premium version or the standard version. If he chooses the premium version, then I want it to say premium in his "receipt" later on and if he chooses standard, then standard in the receipt.

Within my Visual Studio 2008 VB.Net project I am opening multiple forms after setting the form (that is opening) to be an mdichild of the main form. This works in really well in most of my forms except one. I am doing the exact same thing for all of them.
Basically I declare the new form:
Using frm As New frmName() With {.variableName = currentVariable}
frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent
frm.openForm()
End Using
Within the openForm subroutine in the form code I have:
Public Sub openForm()
InitializeDataSources()
... ...
Me.Show()
End Sub
I know this works because if I remove frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent in the main form and change Me.Show() to Me.ShowDialog() in the child form then it works perfectly. Right now (for only one form) it shows the form for only a second (looks like a flicker when staring at the program) and then closes it.

I am currently translating a windows form application, written in VB6, to a webpage written in Visual Studio 2010. In VB6 it is easy to find out which control has focus on the form using '.getFocus()'. I have come to the conclusion it is not that easy, if at all possible, in vb2008.

I had Visual Studio nicely set up with Solution Explorer, Document Outline, Toolbox and a few other things stacked up on the left hand side. Now whenever I run a program, a stack of 6 square windows opens up behind my form: Autos, Data Sources, Locals, Call Stack, Watch and Properties. I have to close them all before my program will close. And then my preferred layout has vanished. I can't find any Visual Studio settings that seem to affect this, but maybe I don't know my way around it well enough.

I've been looking all over the internet trying to figure out how to incorporate Speech Recognition into a program I'm designing in Visual Basic.I've downloaded and installed: Visual Basic 2008 express edition, Visual Basic 2010 express edition, Speech SDK 5.1, and the Windows SDK version 7.1.
I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong, or if maybe I have to use a different programming language like C# or C++...I don't know. I've looked through sample codes and tried a few, but in both Visual basic 2008 and 2010 they say the terms aren't recognized. like System.speech isn't recognized at all.

I am trying to send a keystroke to a running powerpoint presentation with SendMessage or Postmessage. But I can't get as far as the handle for the presentation.
<DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError:=True, CharSet:=CharSet.Auto)> _
Private Shared Function FindWindow( _
ByVal lpClassName As String, _
[code]....
As I understand it, you have to use FindWindow to get the application's handle and then FindWindowEx to get the sub-window's handle. The problem is that the line below FAIL returns 0, not a handle.Relevant material / possible answers are given in these sites but in C-type languages and I just can't see how what I'm doing is making the code fail: RE: hide cursor for kiosk application (powerpoint) hide cursor for kiosk application (powerpoint) | keyongtech Passing Event to Other Application.

In a label box, I want to list a couple of websites, email address along with some text. How do I go about it?
Potential uses- As a Help > About dialog box where websites, email of the author can be listed.
To make things as easy as possible for the user, and encourage visiting of the mentioned websites.
Simple text will be ignored, while standard blue color, underlined text with hand mouse-cursor will need no thinking on user's part.

I am making a program with a few calculators (for now only one calculator is finished). Now, I am trying to make a frontend for the calculator(s). I want to know how to program the frontend, so that when a button is clicked, it would switch to the calculator picked. When I made the desktop version of this calculator before (in Visual Basic 2010), I used the Calculator1.Show() function, but now that function does not exist!
P.S. I am doing all this in metro. I will upload the project now.

I am trying to figure out how to wordwrap the text in a label.I have seen answers about how they have removed the manual "wordwrap" option and made it automatic. Why did they do such a STUPID thing!?I have seen posts about being able to set "AutoSize = True" "AutoSize= False".....WHERE IS "AutoSize"?!?
Code it into the XAML....nope.In the properties of the label? Nope. No "AutoSize".I have tried setting the "width" to auto and setting the height to two lines worth of text.....no wordwrap.I have tried setting the height to auto and setting the width to 100....no wordwrap My 'text' is "Will this wordwrap now or not?" and it cuts off at "Will this label wo".

I have a Visual Basic project and when working and modifying code, the compiler will crash and then a message will say something like "Microsoft visual studio encountered a problem and was shut down." I've tried editing code from the solution and the project. Both produce the error. Usually occurs when adding an "IF...Then..." condition. May work for hours but then crash. Solution will compile and build.

I'm trying to recreate this feature for a twitter control program using VB Studio 2008. I want the users to be able to sign up their account in my application so they don't have to go to the site and do it.
Because captchas are dynamic images, I cannot pull the image from a src file. I'm pretty new to vb.net so, how would I initiate a session, with the webbrowser control or webclient, and be able to display the captcha image for that session on my form.

I'm designing a custom toolbox component. Some of the public properties are interdependent. At present, when the user changes one of these values in the Designer, the dependent value doesn't update until the user clicks on it. Does anyone know how I can "refresh" the Properties window to show the new value of the dependent property?
