I have a class which inherits Component which I need to serialise to the InitializeComponent() method of a form. This is done with a type converter attribute:-
<TypeConverterAttribute(GetType(Design.DocumentParagraphTextStyleConverter)), _
ToolboxBitmap(GetType(DocumentParagraphTextStyle)), _
DesignTimeVisibleAttribute(False), ToolboxItemAttribute(False)> _
Public Class DocumentParagraphTextStyle
Inherits Component
End Class
However when I save a form with this component on it the instance is not initialised in the InitializeComponent() section correctly. The variable is created e.g.
Friend WithEvents DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading As StructuredDocuments.DocumentParagraphTextStyle
and the properties are set e.g.:
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.BorderColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.BorderWidth = 1.0!
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.BottomBorder = True
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Microsoft Sans Serif", 10.0!)
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.Forecolour = System.Drawing.Color.Black
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.Highlight = System.Drawing.Color.Transparent
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.HorizontalAlignment = StructuredDocuments.DocumentParagraphTextStyle.CellTextHorizontalAlignment.CentreAlign
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.LeftSideBorder = False
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.RightSideBorder = False
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.StyleName = "DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading"
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.TopBorder = False
Me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading.VerticalAlignment = StructuredDocuments.DocumentParagraphTextStyle.CellTextVerticalAlignment.MiddleAlign
But the variable is not initialised i.e. the line at the top of the InitialiseComponent sub that should read:-
me.DocumentParagraphTextStyle_Heading = New StructuredDocuments.DocumentParagraphTextStyle()
is missing.
Any thoughts/ideas/comments?

*sigh* - as is always the case, as soon as I gave up and posted the question I worked out what was wrong.
The component needs a constructor that takes the IContainer e.g:
Public Sub New(ByVal Container As System.ComponentModel.IContainer)
MyClass.New()
Container.Add(Me)
End Sub

First step would be to indicate which printing sample you are talking about: perhaps with a link and then post the text of the error message(s)...

For a start you could try FIXING them 
Since we are not psychics we cannot even start to guess what problems you are having.

Hello, I'm not sure if this counts as drag and drop, but I need to be able to move a picture box around inside a panel and have it return what the mouse was last pointing at. Here's what I've got now:
Private Sub myUnitHandler_DragStart(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs)<br />
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then<br />
dragging = sender<br />
sender.DoDragDrop(sender, DragDropEffects.All)<br />
sender.bringtofront()<br />
end if<br />
end sub<br />
Private Sub myTerritoryHandler_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs)<br />
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move<br />
end sub<br />
Private Sub myTerritoryHandler_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs)<br />
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None<br />
dragging.Left = MousePosition.X - 5<br />
dragging.Top = MousePosition.Y - 182<br />
dragging.endcountry = sender.name<br />
dragging.beachland = 0<br />
dragging = 0<br />
end sub
As you can see, this uses mouse positioning to move it and it only works with 1 screen setup. I've tried using something like this:
Private Sub myUnitHandler_DragStart(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs)<br />
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then<br />
dragging = sender<br />
sender.DoDragDrop(sender, DragDropEffects.All)<br />
sender.bringtofront()<br />
oldx = mouseposition.x<br />
oldy = mouseposition.y<br />
msgbox(oldx)<br />
msgbox(oldy)<br />
End If<br />
End Sub<br />
Private Sub myTerritoryHandler_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs)<br />
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move<br />
End Sub<br />
Private Sub myTerritoryHandler_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs)<br />
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None<br />
dragging.Left += (MousePosition.X - oldx)<br />
dragging.Top += (MousePosition.Y - oldy)<br />
msgbox(oldx & " " & oldy)<br />
End Sub
but it seems that the drag event happens before the mousearg because the later msgboxes fire first and have empty oldx and oldy vars.
I'm sure someone has a better idea than this and I'd love to hear any help!
Thanks,
Mike

Hey everyone,
I'm having a problem with an updown thingy. When you click the up and down arrows it adds or subtracts from your total money to spend, but if you manually imput a number into the box it doesn't change the money. :-/
Here's part of my code where "rs" is the total you have to spend:
Private Sub resourcesValue()<br />
If purchase Then<br />
spent = scal + sinf + sgen + sart + skni + sport<br />
lblResources.Text = "Available Resources: " & rs - spent<br />
If (rs - spent < 0) Then<br />
lblResources.ForeColor = Color.Red<br />
btnPurchase.Enabled = False<br />
Else<br />
lblResources.ForeColor = Color.Black<br />
btnPurchase.Enabled = True<br />
End If<br />
End If<br />
End Sub<br />
Private Sub udCalvary_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles udCalvary.ValueChanged<br />
scal = udCalvary.Value * 8<br />
resourcesValue()<br />
End Sub<br />
Private Sub udKnight_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles udKnight.ValueChanged<br />
skni = udKnight.Value * 11<br />
resourcesValue()<br />
End Sub<br />
Private Sub udInfantry_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles udInfantry.ValueChanged<br />
sinf = udInfantry.Value * 5<br />
resourcesValue()<br />
End Sub
I have limits set, but it does not return to the maximum when i push the button. Here's what happens.
I have 80 money to spend. I enter into the udInfantry control the number 80, meaning I need 400 money, but when I push the button, it gives me the 16 infantry that I purchased that turn (IE, 80/5 is 16 infantry) and does not subtract anything from my money.
I believe this is how you set limits:
<br />
udCalvary.Maximum = Math.Floor(rs / 8)<br />
udKnight.Maximum = Math.Floor(rs / 11)<br />
udInfantry.Maximum = Math.Floor(rs / 5)<br />
udArtillery.Maximum = Math.Floor(rs / 10)<br />
udGeneral.Maximum = 1<br />
If Math.Floor(rs / 10) >= 1 Then<br />
udPort.Maximum = 1<br />
Else<br />
udPort.Maximum = 0<br />
End If
Any idea?
Mike

Is it possible to create a wizard in VB.NET? If so, can you direct me towards the instructions for creating such an item.
Cheers,
bryndabella

Instead of creating your own wizard from scratch, why not consider a dotnet component that you can customize. For insrance, have a look at
http://www.divil.co.uk/net/controls/wizardframework/[^]
There are other organisations that have wizard components.

Hi everybody
I am writing a customised software like vb in vb.!!!
please do not misunderstand.
i will be having a software in which i shall have certin objects like timers picture boxes button (very limited ones). i shall let users set their properties and alignment on the screen.
This Application(or form) designed by the user should be able to be able to run standalone after saved. just visualise it like vb!!
I am plannig to start by declaring a syntax for the language in a dll.
make a master software that can read my language. create a dll that can understand it. then somehow call each function into the master form and play it.
then the language can be converted into a gui based vb type software.
the project seems wierd. if anyone can help me. please post as son as possible.
thanks
regards

I have a vb.net 2003 application. I have created the deployment project but I can not for the life of me change the icon image for the shortcut to the desktop. I go to the properties window of the shortcut (under file editor) and browse for the icon image (.ico), select it, but the image file never appears under the current icon windows. I have even type the icon image name into the Icon property box and it just disappears. Any ideas???
Thanks so much.

Hey... I have experience programming in quite a few other languages, but recently my work has asked me to write something for them in VB.NET - this will be my first VB application. I need a bit of guidance...
I have a series of vpn connections configured in my network connections. My application needs to be able to connect to each of these in turn, with a given username & password. I believe what I want to use is RasDial(), but I'm not completely sure how to use it. I have found information on the msdn site with regards to the parameters it takes, but have not been able to find anything with regards to it's actual use. I have searched a series of forums and have only managed to find a bunch of people who say I should be using RasDial but nobody ever gives an example I can follow.
If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it! ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

According to your profile, you also program in C++ have you looked at the Microsoft Win32 Developers Helpfile ?
There is a whole group of functions that comprise RAS. If you don't have Win32 Programmers Help file, contact me by e-mail via link.

When I run my project from withinn Visual Studio (F5), it runs fine and it works and everything but when I tryand run it from it's BIN directory, no forms etc... load. If I then run Windows task manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL), and go to the proccesses tab, it shows that the app is running but no forms are showing as supposed to be.
