• GRK What's the difference between a Windows App Project properties and a Web App Project Properties

  Hello and Thank you for you support. A .net Windows application has Project Properties settings, and a .net Web application also has Project Properties settings. The Windows application project properties has nine tabs that you can view, such as the Application tab. Within this Application tab, is the "Assembly Name" and the "Root Namespace" My question is , Why doesn't the .net WEB application have a place to define the "Root Namespace" and "Assembly Name" ----> just the same as the WINDOWS application Does that mean that you cannot change the Root Namespace and Assembly Name for a Web Project ALSO, a "Class Library" which is a separate project, for a Windows applic ...Show All

• ATT Labs Form show unrequested

  To get some experience using VBE, I converted a simple program I once made for myself(VB5). It's a birthday calendar, using a VB5 commandbutton for each day of the year, i found that VBE has great problems handling this many controls, it is slow, very slow and realy unworkable. Some where else in this forum I found that others with a lot of controls experience the same problems and there is no neat solution for it. In the mid 80's the basicinterpreter was quicker than this VBE with a machine that is 2000 times faster. Another problem I have is that the main(start) form of the program shows up unrequested. In the load section of the (start)form I show another form from which I normally select whether I show the (start)form or not. The se ...Show All

• maktas php editor

Thanks! Regex is regular expressions. Regular expressions allow you to do pattern searches in a string input you provide. It's expensive to use but better to be used in an overall continues use, or something similar to that effect. Example could be when you are using a Search box, you may use regex to ...Show All

• furjaw save file on another have the same name :"overwrite"

  hi : how can i save file overwrite on the another have the same name I threw in the conversion as a little extra You can save the bitmap to the same format if you leave out the format-specification, or use the same format as the original file. You can do that very easily in managed code. The following example will convert a gif to a png and overwrite any existing 'test2.png' file: Dim zBitmap As Bitmap = Bitmap.FromFile("c:\folder\test.gif") zBitmap.Save("c:\folder\test2.png", Imaging.ImageFormat.Png) When you open the file, specify the FileMode as FileMode.Create, this way a new file will be created ...Show All

• Raulsassaa resize Mainfrom via mouse from lower right hand corner of form?

  The MainForm of a windows app has a triangular dot symbol in the lower right corner. A mouse left click should bring up a diagonal arrow and then dragging the mouse up and to the left ( or left and up) should shrink the mainform, moving the right and bottom borders up while the left and top remain unmoved. My form is not shrinking at all Is there a property I need to set, or uncheck I see a Me.Height and a Me.Width but I don't see any other relevant properties to change if I were to do this using MainForm_MouseDown MainForm_MouseUp MainForm_MouseMove any ideas Here are what I think might be relevant code form MainForm.Designer.vb Me .AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Inherit Me .AutoSize = ...Show All

• tlc660 Date Problem

  Hi everyone~ I’m stumped on something that I thought would be simple. I’m trying to figure out how to determine if the LastModifiedDate of a file was yesterday. Not 24 hours ago, but simply yesterday. I have a third party program that converts files and moves them to a specific folder. Anything converted and moved after midnight gets a new date in the file name (MM/DD) and continues doing it’s thing. I want to set up an event that will work with only files that were created yesterday, even if they are less than an hour old. I don’t know if I am on the right track, but so far I have one variable (TodaysDate) as 09/03/06, and the file’s DateLastModified (FileDate) as 09/02/06. But now I can’t figure out how ...Show All
