I have a project created in VB5 and migrated to VB6, VBNet 2003, and VBNet 2005.
I recently placed some labels on the form. When I clicked on the labels VS created the code to handle the click event. I placed my code in the event handler.
When I ran the project in the debugger I clicked on the labels. Nothing happened!
Labels are more complicated in 2005 compared to 2003.
I checked their properties. Enabled is true. I don't see any others that would apply.
What am I missing?
Thanks

On the Sub that handles the Click, does something similar to "Handles LabelName.Click" follow it?
The code that VS created should look something like:
<br />
Private Sub Label1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label1.Click<br />
<br />
End Sub<br />
I hope this helps,
Mitch

That was it!
Because of "pretty indenting" the Handle.Label1.Click was out of site on the right side and was misssingin the box I was testing.

I'd like to replace the bytes in an existing filestream with the value of an update Int64 variable.
I don't think I can just write the variable to the stream.
I think I need to write a buffer at the appropriate point in the stream.
But how do I best get my new Int64 variable into a buffer?
Thanks!

Hello,
I have a project in VB6 where I create a icon in the system tray, and when the user selects the icon a popup appears. This is working correctly.
However, if I have a windows form loaded with vbModal (or the MsgBox) then the popup will not show.
Does anybody know how the solve this problem?
The code that I can using is similar to the code shown here: "http://www.codeguru.com/columns/vb/article.php/c6541/"
Thanks.

when opening the child form pass along an instance of the parent form:
dim frm as new child(me)
in child form constructor
private frm as parent
public sub new (p as parent)
frm = p
end sub
then when user clicks OK you should be able to access the button thru the instance of the parent
private sub OK_click
frm.button.enabled = false
end sub
hope this helps

Hi,
I'm having BIG problems with the substring method.
I have a really big string and I need to extract data from this string; and for that I use substring, but it does not return a good value.
pointer = InStr(startingPointer, readout, Chr(13) + Chr(10))
If startFlag = True Then ' IGNORE this
line = readout.Substring(startingPointer - 1, pointer - 1) ' This block of code executes only once. ignore this .
pocetniPointer = pointer + 2
Else
line = readout.Substring(startingPointer, pointer + 2)
End If
I have debugg countless times. After couple of loops the variable line just adds up found substrings. For example after 5 loops startingPointer is 135 and pointer is 145 by the look of the second block in the else statement the line should return the string of 12 characters but instead it return the number close to 100+ characters.
It does not give a new value to the line it just adds up to the old value. This is the only code that uses the variable line.
Please help!
Thank you!

substring(startposition,length)
so when startingpointer is 135 and pointer is 145 you will get a string of 145 length
if you only want the 12 characters substract startingpointer from pointer before using it
hope this helps

By default, a textbox's default MaxLength value is set to "32767" characters long.
Since the field type for the MaxLength property is Int32, the highest value that you could set it to would be "2147483647".
Hope this helps,
Mitch

Hi everybody
I have a collection of word document which has got lots of Embedded image object inside it.
now what i have to do is read each word document and save out each embedded images to my hard drive ?
how do i do this without using clipboard method ?
Using the following code :
Dim word_doc As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document
word_doc = word_app.Documents.Open(FileName:="E:\testing.doc", ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:=True, AddToRecentFiles:=False, Format:=Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdOpenFormat.wdOpenFormatAuto)
' Delete InlineShapes.
With word_doc.InlineShapes
Do While .Count > 0
.Item(1).Delete()

Any idea ?

Hello,
Am developing a multi-threaded application.
I have a time consuming task that is to save all the data to xml. This takes time so I am doing it in a thread. However, when the thread is started, I would like to open up a new form rather than have the user wait for the save to finish, then open a new form.
However, the new form never opens until the work is completed and the UI is not responding.
In the output window i can see that the threads are existed everytime they go to the sub procedure to save the XML. I think that all the work has to be done in the thread procedure and cannot call other procedures, but not sure about this
Many thanks for your help.
<br />
'Form load event<br />
public sub FormLoad<br />
dim threadSaveXML as new System.Threading(Addressof SaveXML)<br />
threadSaveXML.Start()<br />
<br />
'Open the new form while the data is still currently being saved. Do not wait for the data to be saved first<br />
Dim objOrders as new frmOrders()<br />
objOrders.Show()<br />
<br />
'Hide the current form so the process can still take place in the background.<br />
me.hide()<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
<br />
'Calls the sub procedures to save the actual data to xml.<br />
private sub SaveXML()<br />
SaveBeverages()<br />
SaveMainCourse()<br />
etc.....<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
private sub SaveBeverages()<br />
'saves to xml<br />
end sub<br />
<br />
private sub SaveMainCourse()<br />
'Saves to xml<br />
end sub<br />

Try this code instead:
dim threadSaveXML as new System.Threading.Thread(New ThreadStart(Addressof SaveXML))
threadSaveXML.Start()

Sounds like your printer settings are wrong - the non printable margins incorrect?
