Many thanks for this - should be enough to get me going!
I used a double only because when I began I wasns't sure of the exact keyword list, so played safe in case there were more. I agree the design "looks wrong" as it is clearly limited to only a relatively small number of keywords. I'll have a play with doing it right!

WinForms does not have a "frame" concept. You can change the parent of a running executable to point to your Window, as you already did. SetWindowLong[^] is used to change the border. The statusbar and toolbars aren't part of that border. The borderstyles can be found on P/Invoke[^].
..and please don't repost the exact same question. People tend to ignore duplicate posts.

Which part of "don't repost" did you not understand? 
You have now posted the same question twice in this forum, and twice in QA. You haven't even had the courtesy to respond to the people who have tried to answer your previous versions of this question.

No you can't.
You can, however, open and run an external program from VB.Net.
|
|
|
|
|
Actually, you can do that. It's not very nice looking and you don't have control over the application window nor with the application itself. The user can do whatever they want with application, including putting it back to windowed mode and moving it around inside your parent window, even to the point where they can't see the window any more.

Kindly don't repost - I saw the same question in Q&A.
You won't be able to remove the border of the external exe unless you have their source code and can pass a parameter that suggests you are launching this program from another location.

block varchar(5) Allow Null

It's not urgent. We're volunteers, and reply in our own spare time. I can even choose not to reply.
You should assign the connection cnn to the Connection property of the SqlCommand. As is, it doesn't know on which connection to execute your nonquery.

I am having trouble getting InstallShield to install to use with Visual Studio / Visual Basic 2012.
I have downloaded InstallShield 2012 Spring LimitedEdition. The installation completed without errors. When I try start InstallShield, I get a warning dialog that states: Invalid License data. Reinstall is required.
I have reinstalled twice, but I always get the same warning. There was NEVER any opportunity to enter the serial number that Flexera Software provided.
I posted a similar query of the Flexera InstallShield forum. I also sent an email to Flexera support. Sadly, over a week and there has no response from either.
Does anyone here have any suggestions what I might try next?

Why bother to make such an unhelpful comment.
Never got any help from this forum anyway.

Well it is a valid suggestion, normally we would send you to their forums for such a specific problem but as you have already exhausted that avenue the suggestion to use a different product is valid. So it was not Eddy being a smart ass it is you being overly sensitive.
And he is right it is only urgent to you, the rest of us are enjoying the weekend (I hope).

"Unhelpful" is an opinion; IMHO it'd be the only rational and logical move. One would not want to be depending on a vendor that does not deliver as promised.

Yeah, that'll be the forums fault then?

Hello,
I need to communicate between two exes. Scenario is as following:
- an application in installed on various machines in a network.
- This app will pull the data from sql server database and display to the user. The user is allowed to make modifications to that data.
- When any another user is watching the same screen on a different machine in the network I would like to refresh that screen automatically.
I do not have much knowledge on communication between exes, this is what I thought as solution:
- update db table with IP address whenever user navigates to that form, and remove the entry when he is out of it.
- update log table in db whenever data is changed on that particular form.
- Write a service on the DB server that reads this and sends messages to all the machines on the network that has this app opened and the form on display
-once the app gets the message from service the form will refresh.
Does this solution makes sense, can anybody guide me please. Though I thought of this solution I am not sure how I should communicate from service to exe.
Thanks in Anticipation.

No, you would be better off creating a flag table in the database that is updated when the table changes, all the other clients could then poll the that table at a set interval and update if the flag has changed.

Experts,
Kind of a simple/oddball question...
I'm using VS2012, but making entities, and need to represent the IP Address and Netmask, among other things, for a router. Just a simple class that has all the basic router info, is all.
System.Net.IPAddress is great for the IP Address (really?), and I already have access to all kinds of netmask/CIDR conversion, etc., but the real issue is how to use, represent/convert/display a netmask.
So you typically talk about an ip in a line of *-config on a Cisco router like this:
ip address 75.150.122.161 255.255.255.240
But how would I store this in a class with properties, etc.?
One thought was to store BOTH the IP Address and netmask as IP Addresses...
What are your thoughts?
TIA!

You could just store it as an integer (Int32), an IP address and netmask are nothing more than 4 bytes printed out in a formatted manner. Its easier for people to view them as dotted notation, but in a computer they are just a 32 bit int. If you want to add properties, you could create your own structure and add the methods you want.
