I am really confused! My program doesn't work if I don't have Visual Studio here in my PC. To test it I have uninstalled Visual Studio. But my program doesn't work though Flash Player is present there (I have used Flash animation in the first form).
To be more sure about it I have installed Flash. But it's not working! That means the Flash animation file (.swf) is not making a problem! It needs support from Visual Studio to start. Doesn't it mean that some files are not attached with a setup file as a result it needs Visual Studio to run? Let me tell you how I create a setup file of my program.

View 5 RepliesI've used Visual Basic on and off for years, but for some reason this has never crossed my path, though it's probably relatively simple.
I have a program which runs in the background, in the System Tray. (Which is to say it has a NotifyIcon and is Hiding.) Using the Registy, I've added a new item to the right-click menu for certain files (for example PDF) which reads "Accept".
The goal is to have this open the file in my program and have it run the script. The script itself works flawlessly with an Open Dialog box - all it does is change the "comments" on the file. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it without the dialog box.
I designed a advanced music player, everything is ok, I create the setup, install my computer. Here is my problem, there is a mp3 file at my desktop, right click, Open with, Select my program. But, I realise that I didn't write any code for that. Shortly, I want to when double click on mp3 file. And it should be opened with my program..

View 9 RepliesHow can I make this program that when I click on an item from Grupuri listbox (analiza, escl, esa, media, intrari), to open in the fisierele de transmis filelistbox and also in fisiere receptionate filelistbox the coresponding folders of rec and trs.
For instance: If I click Analiza from grupuri, in fisiere de transmis filelistbox will open/show the content of d: rsanaliza folder and in fisiere receptionate filelistbox will open/show the content of d: ecanaliza folder.
If I click Media from grupuri, fisiere de transmis filelistbox will open/show the content of d: rsmedia folder and in fisiere receptionate filelistbox will open/show the content of d:
ecmedia folder.
Until now I have the following
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FileListBox1.Path = "D:TrsMedia" ' to show me the content of Media at the program start'

So basically I want to Either
A. Include the fonts in the program so the program can use them
B. Find a way to have the program use the fonts without them being installed on the PC.
I could not figure out the key to installing folders/subfolders/.rtf files during deployment/installation. The key here is to 'add' folders and subfolders to the project in solution explorer, then adding existing item (.text (.rtf files in my case) files) then selecting the .rtf file in solution explorer.go to its properties and under 'Build Action' select 'Content' (very Important!). Then under 'Copy to Output' select 'Copy if newer'!Then in code to access these files you use the following code:
Me.RichTextBoxDisplay.LoadFile(Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "KJV BibleOTExodusExodus KJV.rtf"))

I'm trying to click on an icon that is in the system tray. I'm sure there is API involved,which i'm sure will work. I Was wondering if there's any kind of code already in Visual Basic, that somehow puts them in an array of some sort. Especially with how sometimes windows will only show active icons. Would be a pain to have to click the arrows to show all icons and then find the icon. Which if it's API, would have to be x/y coordinates.Definitely would be different every time.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to dynamically change the click event of my tray icon balloon and remove it in the handler. This is the line in the handler:
VB.NET
RemoveHandler TrayIcon.BalloonTipClicked, AddressOf UpdateSite
This is the warning I get:
Quote:
The 'AddressOf' expression has no effect in this context because the method argument to 'AddressOf' requires a relaxed conversion to the delegate type of the event. Assign the 'AddressOf' expression to a variable, and use the variable to add or remove the method as the handler.
How can I move AddressOf into a variable and reference that in RemoveHandler? I can't find out how to declare a delegate.
