• Windows Forms Scroll Event in List Box

  Hi how would i handle the scroll event in List box. Thanks and Regards Jayesh Are you asking this because you want to dynamically load list view items as they scroll into view Perhaps you should look into using virtual mode in the list view, which will notify an event when it needs a list view item. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=191033&SiteID=1 ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office CommandBarButton Click event is not raised

  Hi, I have several buttons in a toolbar in an Outlook Addin. All buttons are members of the class (The instance of the class), so the garbae collector does not collect them, and they are kept referenced. When clicking them, they work fine. The problem is when the toolbar is wider than the window, so some buttons are hidden. When i click the button, it does not raise the event, but only replaces it with a button that is not hidden. When clicking it again (after unhiding it) it raises the event. Any help Adrian Looks like I may have spoken to soon on this one, because it looks like you are correct, in that once the button is selected, it also performs the action (both in Word ...Show All

• Visual Basic Accessing Windows Forms Class

  I have found the following problem: 1. I have a Form1, which has a non-private constant named TestConstant. 2. I have a Form2, which on Load will retrieve the constant from Form1, using the syntax of Form1.TestConstant. 3. The compiler generates a warning about accessing constant via an instance. Most likely is caused by the default instance of Windows Forms. Any way to remove this warning (by accessing the class not the instance) Hi, have you considered something like using read-only shared variable instead of constant Public Shared ReadOnly TestConstant As String = "TestConstant" Andrej ...Show All

• Visual Basic vb6 to vb.net

  hi everybody, Is there any easiest way to do conversion If any of you have good experience in Converting the applications from vb6 to vb.net, Please give me your suggestions. Regards A.K Open the VB6 project in Visual Studio - the conversion wizard go through the upgrade process. Note that this is not a light undertaking except for the most trivial of applications - you will still need to go through the code almost line by line to ensure it still does what you want. The converter is more of an 'interpreter' than anything: it won't take advantage of the more powerful ways of doing things in .NET.
