• Visual Basic Stopping execution of a subroutine

  Ok. I have a series of events happening inside a subroutine. Near the beginning of it, I check to see if the StopRunning variable equals true or false. If it's false, I want it to keep running through the rest of the subroutine with no other problems. However, if it's true, I want the program to stop running through the subroutine and return to the other class that called it. How do I go about doing this I've tried using Me.Close() and closing the window in question, but it still continues to run through the code. Thank you for all helpful responses. If StopRunning = True Then Exit Sub End If ...Show All

• Visual C# Looping through the pages of a Tab Control, and checking whether they contain a certain control

  I'm making a text-editor-like program with tabs for all the open documents, and need a "Save All" button, unfortunately, not all the tabs will contain a text box. How can I loop through each page of the Tab Control, check whether it contains a Rich Text Box control and if so save the text from it The code I'm currently using on my regular save button is: public void Save_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { RichTextBox tempbox = tab.SelectedTab.Controls[0] as RichTextBox ; if (saveFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult .OK) tempbox.SaveFile(saveFileDialog.FileName, RichTextBoxStreamType .PlainText); } And this saves the text from the currently selected tab. Any help would be greatly app ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions function returns

  *Edit* how do i separate the code from the actual text Hi. i'm reading about classes and how to create fields, properties and methods so far i'm doing just far everything seems strait foward but one thing that i bumped into... a function must return a value in visual basic but in this example (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f8f40dwh.aspx) Private Function CalcAge( ByVal year As Integer ) As Integer CalcAge = My.Computer.Clock.LocalTime.Year - year End Function is CalcAge actually the equvalent of return CalcAge; This was the only way to return a value from a function with VB6 or earlier. That's why it remains. Additionally, it gives you greater versatility: you do not need to 'return' fr ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Deserializing WorkflowRuntimeSection

  Hi, I'm hosting WorkflowRuntime in a framework that allows the host to run either as a service or as a standalone application. Rather than maintaining duplicate copies of the WorkflowRuntime configuration, I would like to have the host read a single configuration file separate from the application configuration files. My initial idea was just to use XmlSerializer to deserialize an xml file into a WorkflowRuntimeSection object and pass it to the runtime ctor. However, XmlSerializer xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(WorkflowRuntimeSection)); yields an invalidOperationException that says you must implement a default accessor on System.Configuration.ConfigurationLockCollection because it inherits from ICollection.

• Visual Basic Disabling selectionmode in datagridview

  Is there any way to diasable the selection of a cell in a datagridview Or do you have to make the selection backcolor=nothing Or even better, can you make it only "circle" a cell if you select it I remember that you could do it in vb6 with the flexgrid. i dont think there is a "nonselect" type enum in the DataGridView SelectionMode. I guess when the cell has got focused (looking at the event when fired: cellClick/CellEntered) you can unselect it by setting the "currentcell" property to null. other than this, i can't seem to find anything else. hope it helps in some way! ...Show All
