Thanks

Hello all... I am trying to make a program in VB that flashes between black and white... basically all I am looking for is a small box on the screen which will be able to flash at a rate of approximately 50-60hz... I was told that directdraw was the best method for this. Does anyone have any idea on how I could start this or some directions to a tutorial for more info.. any help would be greatly appreciated.. thanks a lot

I have a asp.net datagrid which has a datatable as the datasource. The grid's last row must must always be empty(easy part). My problem is a have to load a dynamic dropdown list to a column in the last row in the grid, i can do that but every time i click on the list it disappears. Problem no.2 i need to display a datetime picker dynamically in the last row of the grid as well but the calendar control is just too big. The code to do all of this is in the ItemDataBound
All help is appreciated

Hi,
I would like to use the F1 and F2 key to set the focus between 2 grids in the form.
Lets say the cursor focus is in DBgrid1, on hitting F1 I want the focus to shift to Dbgrid2.
And again on hiting F2 I want the focus to go back to DBgrid1.
Here is a piece of my code but wont work.
It does not give me an error mssg but wont fire.
If I change it to DbGrid2.Focus = True then I get an error mssg.
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.F2 Then
DBGrid2.Item(0, 0).Focus = True
'Dbgrid2.Focus = True
End If
End Sub
|
|
|
|
|
try uncommending 'Dbgrid2.Focus = True or using enabled or visible instead. They may accomplish somthing acceptable without the fuss

There are two problems in here, first, when I click the aImageButton, it didn't refresh to the update one. The contactView() in ImageButtonClickHandler not working. Second, IN ContactViewClickHandler, it opens a new forms to edit the info, after this window close, how to update the newest data and reload the dataReader?

The DataReader object returns table rows in a "forward-only" manner. Meaning you can't rewind it and re-read the row that it just returned. The only way to get it to go backwards is to destroy the current DataReader object and create a new one, which will start returning rows from the beginning of the table again.

where and how to destroy the current dataReader in my app?
Lisa

In your code, the DataReader that you create in the ContactView function is destroyed when execution reaches the end of the function. A new one is created and destroyed every time you execute ContactView.
In your code, though, you have no way of destroying all the controls you made so you can create new ones with the updated data. I get the feeling that your code IS getting the updated values from the database, but since you never destroyed the controls with the old data, the new controls your creating are being created BEHIND the controls you already have, and are therefore not visible.
IMHO, you've really got to use a DataGrid for this. You'll end up getting the functionality you want with about half the lines code that you've already written, and have yet to write more to get it to really work.

I'm trying to find a good tutorial on the custom DataGrid's for Windows Forms, but have so far come up emtpy. I keep finding everything under the sun for the ASP.NET DataGrid, though. How sad is that?!

i have a oledb connection to a database which contains 5 tables.
i had given the option to user to select any table.
they will be dispalyed in a list.
i have another listbox in which i want to bind the primary values of the table the user had selected.
i want to do it in run time.

"so is there any method through which i can know which column in a given table is primary key, which is foreign key" basically i want to retrieve the constraint and schema

Help! How to insert icon/image next to menu item? 
|
|
|
|
|
this isn't supported in the current incarnation of the winform menuitem, but i believe i read somewhere that it will be supported in v2.0 of the framework.
for now you'll have to subclass the menuitem class and owner draw the menu's yourself. there are tons of examples of how to do this all over the net.
here's an article here on cp that exlpains how to do this and here are the results of a search in the microsoft .net vb language newsgroup.
hope this helps.

does any one knew how to add description about the parameters in the function and about function, just like microsoft has did for its in built function.
|
|
|
|
|
It's not support by Visual Basic.NET 2002 or 2003. It is in 2005, though.
You'll need a 3rd party tool to generate the .XML documentation files needed by Intellisense. Liucky for you, one exists right here: VBCommenter PowerToy[^].

I want to dispaly my boolean variables in my crystal report in checkboxes checked or unchecked.
Do you have an idea how i can accomplish it.
Thank you in advance
|
|
|
|
|
what i typically do in this situation is add an image (checkmark, or checkbox would do) to the report in the place where i want to display the boolean data and only show it if my field value is true.
this should work for you.

What application generated the .DBF file?
It may seem like a stupid question, until you look at this[^]...

..!!! I've seen the page you linked, correct question!
well, I'd like to read/write shapes'attributes (arcview shapefile attribute table file) and a sample project to start from, even in c# would be great.
