Hello 2 all!
How can i move any control, for instance a Button control on the VB Form's surface. Suppose when the form loads, its location is (0,0) and then after that i want to move this button with the mouse drage event and its position must be changed when i relese the mouse button, then what should i do?
If there is anyother option for that, you can tell me also...
Thanx in advance for helping me out
Regards,
Arfan Qadir

You might want to re-read the original post. He's looking for a runtime moveable control, not drag and drop support for data.

There's no option to make a control movable at runtime. You actually have to make your own version of the button and add support to move the control around while the mouse button is held down. There's actually quite a bit of code that goes into this. Too much to post into a forum message.
Basically, you create a new class, inheriting from Button. Add a couple of private fields to track where in the button the mouse is being held down (a Point instance works), and whether the control is being moved (Boolean).
Once that's done, the rest kind of falls into place if you think about it. Handle the button's MouseDown event to set the Moving flag to True and get the coordinates of the mouse point inside the button and save them in your private field. In the buttons MouseUp event, just set the Moving flag to False.
The MouseMove event is logically simple, but a little complicated in code. You need to calculate the new position of the control using the mouse position with respect to the buttons parent container, not the button itself. Then it's just a matter of a little math...
Public Class MovableButton
Inherits Button
Private _CursorOffset As Point
Private _Moving As Boolean
.
.
.
Private Sub MovableButton_MouseMove(blah, blah) Handles MyBase.MouseMove
If _Moving Then
Dim clientPosition As Point = MyBase.Parent.PointToClient(Cursor.Position)
MyBase.Location = New Point(clientPosition.X - _CursorOffset.X, _
clientPosition.Y - _CursorOffset.Y)
End If
End Sub
There's obviously more to this code, specially when you consider design-time requirements and any other "options" you want to put on this button, like picking which key combination to hold down to move the button.

The .NET framework provides a very flexible and powerful approach to databinding that cuts down a lot of redundant code and simplifies the development process significantly. Unlike the earlier databinding models, which were limited to single data source, the .NET framework provides read/write (two ways) link to a large number of data sources such as DataSets, DataTables, Collections and also textboxes, checkboxes, radio buttons and so on.

Are you trying to FTP a file? Which version of the framework are you using?
2.0 has My.Computer.Network.UploadFile() which you can transfer files with. It will throw an exception if the file is not transferred. I have had problems with it due to proxy servers and found it was easier to just use the free control at http://www.enterprisedt.com

|

I am using file.copy(Source, Dest, overwrite)
|
|
|
|
|
For your second question.
Dim value As Boolean = My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(file)<br />
’ Returns a Boolean indicating whether the specified file exists.

If at first you don't succeed, try; try again, so that you know
what not to do the next time. The answer is out there.

When retrieving a date field that is null, I can't set the checked property equal to false. example
if isdbnull(db field name) then
dtstartdate.checked = false
endif
For some reason this check property is set to true when retrieving that data to display on the screen....any suggestions?
Thanks,
VaLynna

I assume this is a winform app. Put this in a button click and chk if you are able to change the checked state.
dateTimePicker1.Checked= !(dateTimePicker1.Checked)
The isDbNull might return false, chk that

hello..
when a web cam detect motion, it will capture the video and store in mu document.how can i access the folder that store video in my document using pda simulator with vb.net 2005??how can it connect and view the video with the pda simulator???
thanks

The pda "simulator", as you call it, is quite literally a seperate machine. It needs it's own access to the network your development machine is on, but you'll have to make the configuration changes to the emulators network config to match whatever setup your application requires. Once that's done, the emulator will talk to other machines/servers over TCP/IP, just like any other machine on the network.

hi, I have a dataset, DataSet1, populated from a database table named "Sections" which is bounded to DataGrid1.
I want to remove a row if a user selects it in the datagrid and presses the remove button. here is the code:
Private Sub cmdRemove_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdRemove.Click
If DataGrid1.CurrentRowIndex >= 0 Then
Try
DataSet1.Tables("Sections").Rows.Remove(DataSet1.Tables("Sections").Rows(DataGrid1.CurrentRowIndex))
MsgBox(DataSet1.HasChanges)
''OleDbConnection1.Open()
OleDbDataAdapterSections.Update(DataSet1, "Sections")
DataSet1.AcceptChanges()
Catch
Finally
''OleDbConnection1.Close()
End Try
End If
End Sub
But messagebox shows False, and the row is not actually removed from the database, ALTHOUGH DataGrid1 shows that the row has removed from dataset! 
(I use the same method i.e. DataSet1...Rows.Add(..) and then the oleDbDataAdapterSections.Update(..) to add rows which works perfectly!! But the added rows are not removed using the same code from the database...)
I really dunno the reason and got confused!

What exactly are you trying to do? Windows is a multi-tasking O/S and by nature many different programs can run on the same machine. There is no way to prevent this unless you hack into kernel code.
If on the other hand you simply want your program to be the topmost window at all times (for example like Task Manager) - there is a property in the Form class that will allow this.

Even with Form.TopMost set to True, a user can still switch to other apps from the Windows Taskbar, via ALT-TAB, etc. If you don't want a user to do any of that either, then what you want is something like a "Kiosk" mode.
I'm not aware of anything in Windows that will give you Kiosk mode for free. So, this could mean that you'll need to hide the taskbar and block app switching key input yourself.

As Steve mentioned, you cannot stop user from running other applications unless you hack into kernel code.
But, something now came to my mind which MAY get what you want to some extent:
create a new desktop using CreateDesktop API and then switch to that desktop by Switch Desktop and run your application in that desktop using CreateProcess API.
Now you have a desktop which only your program is running in it. User (usually) cannot run any other application since neither explorer nor any other applications are running to give access to other files.
Ofcourse there are lots of limitarions but this is (I guess) the best match to what you are looking for...
Hope it helps...

That's a great idea! I have to give you a 5 for that.
I should also add that if the app ever crashes/hangs, then you'll be stuck in that other desktop. Unable to shutdown windows the "nice" way. That is assuming the app will provide some secret/secure way to go back to the original desktop, which it should.
So, you'll probably want to setup a "watchdog" service that'll restart the app anytime it goes down.
