I understand the issues trying to work in a foreign language very well so I have some sympathy with that.

A quick search online found this:...

I can't tell you what you have done wrong but I can tell you that I have got it working correctly.
I created a form with 2 buttons. 1 to exit and the other to run the function.
I added a module and...

In the code you posted in post 5, you declare DateTomorrow as a DATE type variable.
Then you assign the DATE datatype a STRING value. (DateTomorrow = DateTomorrow.ToString(.....)).
I believe you...

It depends on how you have named your manuals and where they are stored. In your button.Click event, take the text value of ComboBox 1 and/or 2 and use them to identify the relevant manual and...

Instead of making the unused buttons disappear as in your original description, I would have enabled/disabled them instead if they were not to be used (Button1.Enabled = True). This for a purely...

I think the For loop can only handle a data type that can be iterated and you have it using a Variant.
Is it possible to convert to an integer/single before the loop and use the new (integer/single...

To expand on kebo's answer, if you want to record several pieces of info each time, you could use commas (or some other delimiter, I prefer the pipe | because it's rare in normal use) to separate the...

Thank you for your response however I have a question.
I understand what you said about using a container and using a panel for instance, to place the guessed letters could well solve that part of...

I have a hangman program which works just right on my computer. I make a release version and emailed it to another computer. It works on that computer but some things are positioned differently. I'm...

I think a Cue Banner will do what you want. It is a default text to display when the textbox is empty and guides the user about the input required. Have a look at this thread

It is not possible to ask too much! In a previous job, I was asked to put systems in place for a factory and not given any tools to do so. I did the whole exercise in VBA and in the end it tracked...

DigitalShaman has given you the answer but I'll explain why your code didn't work as expected.
Take this line from your code.

If set3 = set4 < 0.5 Then
The comparison operators you are using ( =...

Thank you for the guidance Ident. I have now condensed my code to this based on your comments.
Private Sub btnFiull_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles...

I knew there'd have to be a more succinct way to write this bit and I had an idea it would involve Lambda functions. They are called Lambda fuctions yes? Anyway this part of the code is very helpful,...

The file (myFile) is a .txt which holds a list of all the words. This is about 200,000 long. I read those in at one go with ReadAllLines to an array called Words()
This array is used to populate a...

Thank you John, you put me on the right track to find the problem. It wasn't anything to do with the listbox though. It was that I didn't clear the list "dict" at any time so the second time I filled...

I have a program with a listbox which I fill with a word list 200,000 words. The user can select multiple entries in the listbox and then press a button to delete those entries from the list. As far...

Sub does definitely NOT exit where you say it exits. It may appear so because it doesn't run the final For-Next. The only reason that the final For-Next will exit without doing anything is if the...

This is happening because you are sorting strings instead of numbers. Without researching it, I can suggest a quick and dirty hack though. When you fill your listbox, give the listbox values...

Colour is a user-defined sub. I included it in the code I posted. I simply pass the value of the textbox text to my sub and the sub dies the highlighting.

I notice from your code however, that you...

I created a simple form with an RTB (RichTextBox1), a Textbox (Textbox1) and a button (Button1)
I entered a string in the textbox to test then ran it. I typed a word in the textbox and clicked the...

I have a similar situation with my school. A student comes to a course and then drops out or finishes the course. They may come back another time for another course, or when work allows. I have a...

looks like this thread may have what you're looking for. I know little about RichTextBox but the code here seems to change the font of a part of the text as you describe.

Take the integer division of your value (value\50). This gives the integer part of the division. Add 1, then multiply by 50.
Be careful. This will wrongly round up for example 100 =>150, but...

This is a simple game I made for my school. I hope to be able to deploy it on an interactive whiteboard eventually. We use hangman a lot to learn the alphabet and that is the reason I have...

Thanks tg, no need to look it up, I've solved it with this code thanks to your advice.
Private Sub RemoveAllLetters()
Dim LabelsToRemove As New List(Of Label)
...

Private Sub RemoveAllLetters()
For Each ctrl In Me.Controls
If TypeOf ctrl Is Label Then
Dim ThisLabel As Label = CType(ctrl, Label)
If...

nope, that's not it, I have left Dim as Char and .ToArray as they were and it works. Good thing too really because I am going to have to refer to each letter by index and search the array for...

@DBasnett, there is something in the text, an underline.
@grags, it seems the only thing you changed was Placeholder.Size to Placeholder.Width and Placeholder.Height and made no difference....

I am trying to create labels and tile them across the form. I have followed examples from the internet but they don't display. Me.Controls.Add should work!!! I checked they should be in the visible...

After reading the documentation about String.Split, you will see that it creates an array with each word in a separate index. Be aware that arrays are 0-indexed which means that the first element in...

You read and write to the console sequentially. When you Console.ReadLine, everything stops until the user presses <ENTER> the app then continues with processing. You cannot display anything below...

Maybe check your filenames. In post 6, it complains it can't find "Broken Window" (with a space). In post 7, You have a file called "Broken_Window" (with an underline)

I put all the required files in the same folder as the exe and then use App.Path in code. This way, when you deploy, it doesn't matter what the name of the folder is where you have your .exe It is...

Have a look at the MSDN for tooltip.Show method and its overloads. One of them sets the position of the tip.
There is also an old thread here that you might find useful

If dgView.Rows.Count Mod 100 = 0 Then
'multiple of 100 so do send stuff
Else
'Not multiple of 100 so ignore it and download the next
End If

As an off-the wall idea, why not set the coordinates for the form so it shows outside the display area. Then when the last control is added, set the display coordinates back inside the display area?

Is it as simple as a typo? In your description, you refer to frmAccess but in your code, you refer to frmAcces

About subs: The code you have in post 7 is a sub. It is attached to the click event of BtnA. This sub is automatically generated for you when you double click the button in the designer.
But, you...

As George says, you can learn and develop your skills at home. To demonstrate you have the necessary skills, you would simply have to take along an app or 2 that you have written. I would strongly...
