It's also a nuisance that one has to actually pass the cursor over the scroll bar to see it.

Ooops !
Thanks John, I must've missed the pop-up notification, I'm now also using version 16.9.4. It's made no apparent difference to the templates however.

Hi Keith,

Maybe you said which version of VS you're using in your previous thread, I'm using: -
Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.8.4

Ah... Sorry, I misread your post, I thought your 'ComboBox' were names you had given to your ports.

Hi Prasanna,

Firstly... you'll need to correct this line as shown.

Dim COMMbobox() = {PSComboBox, PS2Combobox, DMM1ComboBox, DMM2ComboBox}
Then you'll be able to check each box in turn,...

Hi,

It's most unusual for a thread to remain unanswered for this long, it indicates that your coding is also unusual, I would suggest that you try something else, I recommend that you totally...

Thanks John,

That sounds much more plausible.

Hi,

Form1 has two buttons, Button1 and Button2, and a label, Label1. They're all stilled called by their generated names.

There's not much code and yet starting the app. I get an error... What...

Ok, Thanks

Thanks .Paul,

Yeah, that's the trouble with being ancient, to be honest I expect I'm still thinking BASIC rather then Visual Basic, or maybe just VB version 3.0.

Thanks .Paul,

That's very interesting...

Thanks .Paul,

I don't believe I've had any issues with this.

Hi,

On the form design screen, in properties you can select from a menu just by clicking 'Cursor'.

You could consider making your own cursor from a square image in resources..

Hi,

Yes, being a newcomer to Visual Basic you failed to realise that unless specified otherwise, the word 'Label' is always going to be construed as a control called 'Label'.

This is what I'd...

Hi,

I started using Visual Basic with version 3.0 about 1990, back then Buttons had the option of being animated, 'Pop-Up' when clicked they would appear to depress whilst the mouse button was...

Hi,

Are you trying what is suggested?
Have you understood what Shaggy Hiker is telling you?
Have you looked at the value of 'sender' at the first code line of your subroutine?


Poppa

That's not a rule, it's just a convention. Whether or not anything complains depends on what settings you have. Style checkers would complain, but base VS shouldn't.[/QUOTE]

Hi BeginnerMe,

First error, nothing to do with your question... Subroutine and Function names should always start with an upper case letter, I'm surprised that Intellisence hasn't complained.

Hi,

You may find this useful.

Hi,
Yes that's true but doing that will show you what handling you need for something similar in your class.

Ok, Thanks guys, that's fixed it.

I've done it that way since VS2005 at which time it was recommended by someone in this forum.

Hi,

I can't see why this does not draw an image on my form.
I expect it's something basic but I can't see what.
I've checked that 'img' does in fact contain a 'System Drawing Bitmap'.
