• Visual Basic Web Browser project

  I am working on a very simple browser, mainly for quick web surfing without the need of menus, favorites, and other fancy features seen in other browsers. The problem is, im quite new to this programming language, and i barely got anything out of what little time i had in Introduction to Computer Programming (using Visual Basic 6.0) before being pulled out of that class to make up a required credit. Im clueless as to how to get the WebBrowser object to respond to the input in the AddressBar, and display the site the user types. Any help on this would be really greatful. Thanks yes :-) Me .AddressBar.Navigate(Me.AddressBar.Navigate) 'wrong! Me .theWebBrowserControl.Navigate(Me.AddressBar.Text) 'right!   you need t ...Show All

Simply launch the x86 (32-bit) version of IE7 on Windows XP Pro x64 Edition, then close it by clicking the X in the upper right corner to induce the crash. This problem doesn't occur with the x64 version of IE7, or the x86 (32-bit) version of IE7 when run on x86 (32-bit) versions of Windows XP.

• Visual C# performance measurement tools in VS2003

  Hi, I am using VS 2003. Is there anyway to find out how long it takes for a given function or some line of code to execute I can use DateTime but is there any built-in mechanism in VS2003 for performance measurements Thanks, Don't use timers in code, this will cost you alot of time to putin and to maintain. What you want is a profiler, this will measure all your code and give great resultats that you can sort, filter and more. A free profiler is Nprof , nice, free and easy. When you want a full profiler with just some extra compared to Nprof i suggest ANTS Profiler .

• Visual Studio Tools for Office deleting checked items from listview in c#

  Hi, I'm trying to delete records which are checked in te listview. How can I do this Thanks The ListView property CheckedIndices will give you a collection of integers representing the indexes of all the checked items in the ListView. The ListView property Items gives you access to the collection of items in the ListView and ListView.Items.RemoveAt (index) will let you remove the item at a specified index. Unfortunately you can't just walk down the CheckedIndices collection using foreach. When you remove an item from the collection, that changes the indexes of all items above. The CheckedIndices collection is updated to reflect these changes but the enumerator used by foreach isn't. Here's one way to work ...Show All

• Visual Basic Is it possible to host a .NET control in VB6 form?

  It looks like most questions in this forum go unanswered, so hopefully someday before I retire I can check back here and find an answer. I am trying to use a component created in .NET on a VB6 form. I've seen information about creating type library's from .NET dlls that you can register so COM can see them, but thats a whole different monkey from turning a .NET dll into an ActiveX control. There's a CTP version available on our blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/vbteam/archive/2006/11/02/interop-roadmap-usercontrols-mdi-and-data.aspx . If you've got any questions on how to use it please post them here and we'll do our best to answer them. Thanks, Jonathan ...Show All

• .NET Development Drawing on web pages

  After way too much research and study, I have not been able to determine how to draw on web pages (not forms). Is it possible If not, how do I launch a seperate form, and can I draw on that (as the client) Thanks in advance. Martin, Thanks again. I went to the referenced site, and that sure does look like we're getting close. I cut and pasted the simple "oval" line, inserted it into the <body> of an aspx, but got an "unrecoginized namespace" at the "v" in the opening tag, and couldn't figure out how to clear it. I am running IE version 7, but for some unfigured out reason, when the aspx runs, it reverts to IE 6. , although it reports itself to be 7.0. Either way ...Show All

• .NET Development .net 2.0 WinForms Application suspends for 6 min at startup

  Hi fellows, currently I do have a very strange problem with getting a .net 2.0 application to run smoothly. Used OS: Windows 2003 (1.0/1.1/2.0/3.0), Windows 2000 (1.0/1.1/2.0) The Project has been converted from a 1.1 WinForms project to 2.0 by Visual Studio. After compiling the project and all dependencies I start the executable. There is some activity on CPU and memory for about 30 seconds (loading static data). After that the whole application becomes totally unresponsive; the application main window (which already raised the "Load" event) is only an empty rectangle on the screen. The application stays in that state for about 5 to 7 minutes and then recovers and shows the mainform. Code-wise there's nothing left to co ...Show All
