• Tryst Hi, Tailor POINT is a STRUCTURE with more than one property and is treated as a single item.

  Hi, I'm having trouble coming to grips with the use of arrays. This time I need to put a number of co-ordinate Points into an array. for example startPoint = 50,180 endPoint = 100,180 I've initialised my array : Dim arrowCoord(,) As Point = New Point(,) {} Then tried to input data with this. arrowCoord(0,0) = (startPoint, endPoint) I'm getting the error message that a ')' is expected at the comma between startPoint and endPoint. Would appreciate any advice. Whe I get this right I need to write the data to an Sql table, so would appreciate a little help with that also, as far as the extracting the data from the array.

• Douglas H. Troy Webbrowser control (x reamaining items) status bar implementation

  I am in the process of developing an application that uses a webbrowser control to display google maps. when I load the maps under IE6 I notice that the status bar displays something like "(x Remaining Items) Downloading Picture http://...." x is the number of items being loaded and decrements to 0. I am wondering if there is a way to display this same kind of status with my webbrowser control. i currently have a status bar attached to the main windows form that uses the standard code shown below. the current status bar only shows status until the main page is loaded. If someone could get me started in the right direction or provide a code snippet i would appreciate it. Thanks Jim Groleau Private Sub WebBrowser1_Navi ...Show All

• Arczi999 VB .net tab control multi line...

  Ok, I am creating a new version of a program in vb .net. The main page has a tab control with 7 tabs on it to select your general category. However, the two word text does not always fit on these tabs. I want the text to wrap instead of just going out of view off of the tab. However, there is no wrapping option or way to get the text on multiple lines(like there was in VB 6), except for forcing it by inserting a new line character into the text. But if I do it that way the text is no longer vertically OR horizontally centered and looks very bad, and is plainly unacceptable. So, is there any way to get the text on multiple lines on the tab control I have been looking everywhere for this option and it is simply not there. Thank you. ...Show All

• DaltonF Setup Produced By "Build, Publish" Gives Error After I Uninstalled VB With CD And 'Removed' All Installation CD Programs

  Hello, I created a setup file from my application. I did this because I want to put my application on other PCs without installing Visual Basic. I basically want to just run the applicatoin on other PCs. What I did to create the setup file was within VB I clicked "Build" then "Publish." I then wanted to test the setup file on my PC, so I removed everything given to me by the VB installation CD! So, I uninstalled VB using the installation CD. But, I also had to go to the control panel to remove some of the programs that the installation CD gave me. I did this because the uninstall via the CD left things on my system that the installation CD gave me. When I was done, the control panel, remove programs listing ...Show All

• Espriella Graphics in VB.NET- How do i draw to a form without using onpaint method?

  Hey you! I want to draw something on to a form but i don't want to use onpaint() method. I don't know how do i do Please help me if you can! Thanks very much! dvl_vn @ Ghaby I haven't played around with it yet, but the XNA Framework is perhaps something you could look at - it's a 3D game-creation tool but 3D games are basically " running around in a 3D map " so it may offer you an easy and far more powerful way to take your map tool into the third dimension (2D is of course also part of that).

• ziman how to uninstall my own application

  I have a vb.net program that runs invisibly - no task bar, no icon, no VISIBLE form. It can't be shut down by the user outside of the standard windows shutdown. This part works. If the user wants to uninstall this program, they need to open up the application and enter an uninstall code that turns off the program so it can be uninstalled. A tray icon is not an option. QUESTION: If I have a program that is running invisibly, is it possible to click an icon that makes the program become visible Well, you're dealing with communications across processes - you can look into mutexes - you can probably do something smart with one of these: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.m ...Show All
