When setting a button's visibility to true in a condition, checking its visibility later still returns it false. This is done in Visual C# 2008, and the (merged) screenshot below pretty much explains...

It has nothing to do with the length of the words, I just want(ed) specific words to be colored just like Visual Studio colors keywords.

Thanks for your help guys! That's a thing I really struggled on in C#.

-Cøi.

Can I use the 'form1' instance in the Form2 class outside the "public Form2()" event? As I said, I want the DoSomething() to be on ButtonClick() event. (Sorry if this is a stupid question).

Can you give me an example please? I'm pretty beginner at C#, so I don't really get what you say.

Hi all.

In Visual Basic, which I'm used to, you can just have 2 Forms doing events on each other:

[Form1]

Private Sub ButtonClick() 'The event that will show Form2
Form2.Show()
End Sub

I don't have Visual Studio 2010 on this computer, but by viewing the images I would give your application an 8 out of 10.
It's a nice layout for someone who's only beginner, especially the images of...

The words getting colored are working fine, except the fact that you can't select any text anymore and if the textbox contains scrollbars (I mean if the text gets bigger) the scrollbars are...

If you only want the decimal part to be removed and not be "adjusted" (like you want 2.5 to be 2 and not 3),
I suggest this:

If x.ToString.Contains(".") Then
Dim result As Integer =...

Actually I think VB.NET is a lot faster than VB6.
VB6 is terribly slow (maybe except this because of VB.NET handling the code not the same like VB6).

Hi all.

So, I'm trying to make a RichTextBox which makes seperate words colored as you type them (like in Visual Studio itself ;)).

The problem is, it's absolutely not working as I want and...

Could please someone help me? It's getting boring to always watch the same colors on the edge of each window...

Help is appreciated.

Button ForeColor's are always gray when the buttons are not enabled.

Also, some hints:

Instead of using
btn1.Text = ""
you can also use (unlike vb6)
btn1.Clear

also, something notices me...

Thank you for the reply,
it works well and I was stuck at this easy piece of code.

Hi all.

If I have a multi-line textbox like this:

Hi all.

I want to make a small program in visual basic that can change the windows Vista / 7 color scheme, not one of the default list, but RGB, like in the 'Color mixer' options when you go to...

This is a .wav file in the resources.
I already have found the solution:



System.IO.Stream s = a.GetManifestResourceStream("<Project name>.Resources.Sound1.wav");

Hi all.

I found this code on msdn:



System.Reflection.Assembly a = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();

Thank you.

Hi all.

Title explains it, I'm trying to get the battery life meter in percent, so it will be shown on a progressbar when you're on a portable computer.

Try
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(ShowTime)

Code bank forum? Can you give me a link to it, please..

Try adding this code:



Private Sub ShowText(ByVal sText As String, ByVal TextColor As Color, ByVal ShowTime As Integer) 'ShowTime in miliseconds!
Dim frmText As New Form

Hi all.

I'm trying to making an auto-responding program for different Instant Messaging chat programs, like MSN or XFire.
I don't know if it's possible to do this in Visual Basic. If not, feel...

If they fire at the same time (I mean same event), why are there 2 events then that do the same things?

Hi all.

What's the difference between the SizeChanged event and the Resize event?

I know that there are alot of other solutions I can do to stop the code being ran by booleans and stuff like that, but is there absolutely no way to cancel the execution completely?

That is a helpful hint, but are you confirming there is no possibility to discard the code being executed immediatly?

Hi all.

Is it possible to stop a Sub from executing its code when you, for example, click a button?

Example:



Private Sub ExecutedCode()
'doing things here

I'll give an example of what the program does:



string[] filePaths;
string allText;
FolderBrowserDialog SelectFolder = new FolderBrowserDialog();

private void button1_Click(object sender,...

It's a code that will always take a long time, because it's checking files you select in a folder, so it can't be sped up.

Edit: and the thing I want is showing the status on controls in the form.

Hi all,

When my program is executing code it's disfocusing the form so you can't do anything on the form. Is there a possibility to fix that? I already have heard of the Backgroundworker, but I...

It works fine, but now my question is how to make the form a child of a panel, because adding an owned form, for me, looks the same like Form2.Show()

I think there's no solution for this.

Thanks, I'll try that when I have finished breakfast.

Well, when I'm trying to fade out a childform in a panel (ChildForm.TopLevel = False will prevent errors) its always 100&#37; visible unless the opacity is 0.0
So, I didn't found a solution for this yet.

I think I have found another solution. I could use Forms instead of UserControls. By changing the Form's borderstyle to None and then add it later as a childform, you wont notice any difference. Am I...

I was already thinking of this solution when there's no other.. Doesn't suprise me it's not possible in VB, though..

Anyway, I'll try it now

there is an image behind the panel, so I want the control and all its child controls inside it to fade out to the image behind it.



I want to be able to do both.

My question is not the animation. It's how to change the opacity of the whole control like changing the opacity of a form, but instead of that a control.
