• 陛下 Remove blank space from middle of string/Concatinating

  I have a program (Visual Basic) where I click on a file name in a ListBox, i.e. "0001 42356.tif" which loads that selected string into a textbox. I click that ListBox again and another file name as string, i.e. "0001 43278.tif" is loaded into a second text box. These two strings will eventually be joined to create a "span" First issue is - I need any blank spaces gone from the strings leaving them as: "000142356.tif" and "000143278.tif". The Trim methods I've studied just trim space from the beginning or end so I've tried 500 other things but nothing is getting rid of the space yet. The second issue is, I need to concatinate those 2 file names (creating a span in a third textbox) &qu ...Show All

• Thymen VB Generics: if list.Exists("Foo")

  I love generics but I don't understand them very well and can't find an answer that makes any sense to me. Perhaps someone can help. I understand dim l as List(Of String) and l.Add("One") l.Add("Two") l.Add("Three") but I don't get if l.Exists("Foo") then l is a list of String, and apparently I need to define a delegate that returns true/false if the param exists in the list. Have to use AddressOf to tell Exists what to call when it's invoked. All that sorta makes sense. However, I'm very unclear on what the delegate should look like MSDN shows a hard coded "saurus", but that makes no sense to me - it seems like I ought to walk the list somehow, and I'm assumi ...Show All

• Xcel problem in using Usercontrol after converting from VB 6 to VB 2005

  Hi all, I converted a custom button control project from VB 6.0 to VB 2005. After many issues, i'm able to build it successfully with out any errors. But when i try to add this button control to a form in the test application, the whole test application IDE(VS 2005) closes with out any error message. Has anyone come across this problem. What could be the reason behind this problem. Thanks in advance, Sugan The problem is slightly different now. I'm now getting a error message from VS IDE and it restarts the IDE automatically. The error Message is "Microsoft Visual Studio has encountered a problem and needs to close". I'm not able to find anything out from this error message. It is strange that VS IDE closes ...Show All

• Ruddles FontSyles?

  How do you get a multiple fontstyle i.e Bold and Italic and Underlined all at the same time. I have 4 Checkboxes each with a different style, if I click ckbBold then I get a Bold font in my textbox but if I then click ckbItalic nothing happens until I uncheck ckbBold, so I only ever get one style. Any ideas or pointers As Ahmedilyas said, you need to OR the font styles, not simply set them: fStyle = fStyle or FontStyle.Bold C# this.theTextBox.Font = new Font(this.theTextBox.Font, FontStyle.Bold | FontStyle.Underline); Thanks for the reply Admedilyas, It works but not for the pupose that I need it for see below Private Sub FontChange() Dim font_style As FontStyle = FontStyle.Regu ...Show All

• JTechOnlineGuy New project-needed help with many features

  I just started using vb 2005 express for a school project, so I'm quite unfamiliar with it. I would like to do some advanced "add" features, which I need help with: 1. Not be able to proceed to the next form unless all fields are filled in. Get a warning message when pressing the "confirm" button. 2.Allow more then 1 radio-button to be pressed in the same form. 3. Generate random pictures (validation pictures) each time I open the add form. You have probably seen these things before on website registrations (write down the code you see in the picture).  4. Each picture should have a code, which must be written in the field below to be able to proceed to the next form. Once again, the same feature ...Show All

• cbueno Disable "Move" for my form

  I am writing Windows Application with VB.NET. I would like to have my form occupying the whole screen and disallow the user from resizing it and moving it. I successfully coded it such that the form didn't move when the user dragged the title bar. It was what I wanted but it was not so perfect. When I press ALT+SPACE, a context menu popped up and this menu contains a menu item called "Move". I wanted to disable this menu item "Move" such that it only showed as a gray text instead of a black text. Which function to call I would agree that there are API calls to do almost anything. The question is should you use them Moving into unmanaged code requires careful consideration. Many Windo ...Show All

• Jonas1980 Access Child Menu Entries

  I am currently tearing my hair out trying to access menu items on a menustrip I have a very usual menu with File and a sub menu Exit. Clicking on File>Exit will quit the app. I can access the File by using MenuStrip1.Items(0).Text = "Foo" This changes the File to Foo But I can't find anything to enable me to change the Exit text to something else Please help BTW The reason I am doing this is to localise my application and so if I am running in another language I need to change all the test of the menu items If there is another way of doing this I am all ears...

• AndyMc data storage

  As posted in another thread, I'm planning to build an accounting program. I'm wondering what would be the best way to store the data, using databases or perhaps XML There will be over 50 administrations and several users. Would one database per administration be most efficient considering one administration will usually be accessed by one user at a time Using XML probably means smaller file sizes and therefore less network traffic, but databases offer more functionality. Anyone has experience with this Any help would be welcome. Regards, Eric interesting.
