Ya, its VBA using Access. I need to somehow verify that 'if' statement properly, then get the selected item into a String variable.

Hi all,
How could i change text on button in MessageBox?
Ex : If i write :
MessageBox.Show("How to change text","Question",MessageBoxButtons.OKCancel)
-> MessageBox will be shown with "OK" and "Cancel" button. But i want to change text "OK" -> "That's right" and "Cancel" -> "That's not right".
How could i do that?

You can't. The things you see in a MessageBox are not cusomtizable. You'll have to create your own form class that provides this functionality. It's not that hard. It's just a normal form with a couple of buttons and a label. Maybe even a picturebox if you want.

hellllo ctlqt,
Dave is correct "The things you see in a MessageBox are not cusomtizable"
U can use
form.showDialog() method to show ModelDialog,
just create a form looklike message box and call it as modelDialog box

i have a label and textbox.
right now i have 75 labels and corresponding textboxes.
i have done their connectivities with database.
after deploying it suppose i want 100 textboxes.
or rather i want to leave this on user that how much labels and textboxes he want.
for that a window wil be there and user will enter the name for label and its value..
but how label and textbox will be generated...?
and how will the database connectivity will be established.
i dont know how this can be done.
can anybody give me any idea , hw do i proceed...???
thanks.

To make the labels and textboxes you can use a for loop that dynamically creates them based on user input. For the db connectivity, what exactly are you looking for?
|
|
|
|
|
okkk, i think it will do.
but wat abt the conectivity with database..??
like how the connectivities with backend will be established automatically with the textboxes created dinamically.
can u tell me any article or any code for such logic...?

Hello CPians,
I am wanting to do a string comparison but the check is against multiple possibilities, eg: The string can be "SPT", "SAP", or "PRF" and I'm hoping to do this without something like
If MyString.Equals("SAP") Or MyString.Equals("SPT") Or MyString.Equals("PRF") Then
'process here
End If
Is this possible? I've tried some Google searches and haven't found anything as of yet (maybe I'm using the wrong keywords). Any ideas?

Select Case MyString
Case "SAP", "SPT", "PRF"
'process here
End Select
|
|
|
|
|
Well I found my solution
Dim ProgramTypes() As String = {"SAP", "SPT", "PRF"}
Dim ProgramTypeList As New ArrayList(ProgramTypes)
If Not ProgramTypeList.Contains(sProgType) Then
'Do my stuff here
End If

Hi all.
I've been trying in vein for days to figure this out. I use extended desktop to extend my display to the left, not the right, and when I hibernate and come back, the desktop is extended to the right. So I'm writing an app that will retrieve the extended desktop settings on hibernate and set them again on resume.
I've seen a few examples of using EnumDisplaySettingsEx in C and C#, but nothing in vb.net that helps. I just need to figure out how to determine "This monitor is primary, that one is secondary and is positioned on the left." And then "Set this monitor to primary, set that one to be on the left."
I already have the rest of the app written (detecting hibernate, etc.), but I'm super new to the Windows API and all these structs and translations from C to vb.net are way out of my league.
I'm desperate  . Help!

P.S. I've pieced together the following, and it gets devicename and resolution successfully, but I'm still stuck on the aforementioned stuff:

It sounds like you've mistated the problem. From what you've posted, there's no problem at all, so I question why you're even trying to do this.
Really, there shouldn't be a single reason why you're doing this at all if your display drivers are working correctly.
|
|

|

You are correct. I had a typo in the problem statement that I've updated. What happens is:
[2nd Monitor (extended desktop)][Laptop]
...Hibernate...
...Resume...
[Laptop][2nd Monitor(extended desktop)]
And I'm trying to read the fact that the 2nd monitor is on the left, and then set those same settings later.
Can you help??

The problem is that your trying to throw a band-aid over a driver problem. On my laptop, this problem doesn't show up, using a Mobility Radeon 9000. I would recommend that you see if there are updated drivers before going through all this. Both ATI (AMD now) and nVidia drivers both come with desktop manager software now that takes care of this.

We can't move any controls on any forms in a project we've inherited. In the properties pane, all of the forms have a blue lock icon on them, and the toolbar lock toggle is depressed and cannot be released.
Can someone please tell how to release these form locks?

I tried making all of the files not read only, and that fixed it. VB6 sucks donkey turds.

Is this the same project with the stupid reference paths you were complaining about last week?
Try this: Open the .frm file in Notepad. If it contains "LockControls = -1", delete it.

I know what you mean. I stopped using VB6 when I got my hands on the .NET Framework 1.0 Beta and was writing code in Notepad!

Hi,
I want to use mouse left click while "Shift" on down position.
Thank you very much.
|
|
|
|

Not sure what your problem is here. Do you have a windows program? You want this program to press the shift key and the left mouse click? You can do this through windows messaging. Not sure if that is what you are trying to do or not.

We need a lot more detail about what your problem is. If this is a windows app, then all you have to do is set a flag in your forms KeyDown event when the Shift key is pressed. In your mouse event, you look to see if this flag is set.
|
|
|
|

Sorry for unadequate details.
Actually I send some commands with SendKeys method to a program works under windows.
I am trying to send mouse click while "shift" pressed.
I can do them separetly by using and mouse_event and SendKeys "+" method (with VB 6.0).
But ı have to do it at the same time and with VB 6.0.
Thanks for your interests.

Then you're not going to be able to use SendKeys to do this. SendKeys sends an entire KeyPress, meaning the "make" and the "break" of the key, in other words, pressing the key and releasing it.
You'll have to to the SendMessage API call to wend the window handle the key message to "make" the Shift key, then send the mouse click message, then another key message to "break" the Shift key.
