You have to add reference of the dll of the user control
and then drag the .dll file from the solution explorer to tool box. you get the control.

Hello
I have been using VB for an @ page directive extender. I now need to add code for Paypal PDT (Payment Data Transfer). This code is currently commented out in my project as you can see.
The first chunk of code is for extending the @ page directive.
'Imports System '1
'Imports System.Web.UI '1
'Imports System.Web.UI.HtmlControls '1
'Imports System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl '1
'Partial Class Store_thankyou '1
' Inherits BasePage '1
' Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load'1
' Dim body As HtmlGenericControl'1
' body = Master.FindControl("body")'1
' body.Attributes.Add("class", "store")'1
' End Sub
'End Class '1
The 2nd chunk of code is for the paypal side of things:
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Text
Public Class store_thankyou
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
#Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code "

Private Function OutputEntirePDTString(ByVal myPDTString As String) As String
Dim tempString() As String = Split(myPDTString, vbLf)
Dim x As Integer
For x = 0 To tempString.GetUpperBound(0)
Response.Write(tempString(x) & "<br>")
Next
End Function
End Class
How can I get the two pieces of code to work together?

Using Partial Class

Thanks for the quick response. I am doing some investigation on partial classes but so far have not been able to get that to work. I can get the PDT side to work as a partial class but then the @page directive extender does not work. I am new to all this, it may be easy to do but I am not certain. I am learning however. Does anyone have any more details for me to go by?

As embarrising as this is to ask, my training goes back to gosub and goto days (the dinosaur blushes).
I have a registration form which has buttons and textboxes for various data collection and branching off to other forms, so how do I tell all textboxes to...
Private Sub TextBox3_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox3.TextChanged
"gosub" to (for example)
Private Sub DataChange
and then perform the various changes I require (ie. forecolor change, enable etc) which I can do ok.
Additional: Have tried to Call the required Sub but don't know what to put for all the By Val stuff.

Correct, calling a method is a gosub, it always returns. Goto exists within a method, but you cannot call a method and give it full control, it always comes back.

Thanks again for you help by confirming the Call method Christian, just now trying to sort out the simple syntax for it.
Private Sub Textbox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Textbox1.TextChanged<br />
Call DataChange() 'Having troubles here<br />
End Sub
'Guessed to put "RuntimeTypeHandle" in here, but not sure what is required
Private Sub DataChange(ByVal sender As System.RuntimeTypeHandle)<br />
btnAccept.ForeColor = Color.Red<br />
<code>etc....
End Sub

There is no Call keyword, AFAIK. Your issue is that you need a RuntimeTypeHandle to pass in. If the param is called sender, then this is obviously an event, your best bet is to factor the code out, so that DataChange and Textbox1_TextChanged both call the same method. If you don't use the parameter, another approach is to pass Nothing as the parameter, but if the code uses 'sender', this will cause a null reference exception, as you're essentially saying - here's an object with no value.

Thanks again for your speedy reply Christian.
I am so confussed. The RuntimeTypeHandle was just an attempt to put something there to make it work. I don't understand, so I'll just attempt to rephrase what I need.
When for example text is changed in Textbox1,2,3,4 or 5, I need a command, method or whatever to do the same proceedure.
I created the "DataChange" sub to try to pervent repeating the same command lines in each Textbox(x)_TextChanged.
My previous program language was a VERY long time ago, so I need to keep it simple. Sample code speaks to me the clearest I think.
Thanks

Where did you get it from ? What does it do ? If you never access the variable, remove it and all your problems are solved.
I'd love to give you more sample code, but I really don't know what you're after. A sender is usually an object, it was only the variable name that made me think this was something I'd just not seen before. So, if you don't use sender in your method, remove it from the parameters, and then the command
DataChange()
is all you need ( being VB, you may not even need brackets ).

Ok, how's this....
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged<br />
'Need code here to go and run the DataChanged Sub below.<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
Private Sub DataChange()<br />
btnAccept.ForeColor = Color.Red<br />
btnAccept.Enabled = True<br />
btnNoteboard.Enabled = False<br />
btnLab.Enabled = False<br />
btnJobReg.Enabled = False<br />
btnSmplReg.Enabled = False<br />
btnBusiness.Enabled = False<br />
End Sub
Sorry, I know this must be so simple for you, but I am catching up slowly to VB.Net. I appreciate your patience.
It's OK I GOT IT!!!  Thanks so much for your help

You've created two accounts, to post the same question twice, when typing it verbatim into google would flood you with answers more detailed than you could hope to get from a forum reply ?

Hello all!
I've encountered a problem when I have have my drawings drawn onto a bitmap.
The problem comes when i repaint the bitmap. It seems that any text that i have is distorted (seems like an awful bolded text), while the charts and lines all looked fine.Certainly if I were to draw everything onto screen without saving onto a bitmap first, then the displayed text has no problem showing up perfectly.
So hmm, what could the problem be?
The font type,style or graphicsUnit?
'Display Text and Values<br />
strText = "(" & arrayTable(arrayLoc).estimated_StartDate & "," & arrayTable(arrayLoc).Duration & ")"<br />
<br />
grfx.DrawString(strText, New Font("VERDANA", 7.0, FontStyle.Regular, GraphicsUnit.Point), Brushes.Black, (x1 + bar_Width + line_Width), y1 + yCenter - 6)
Or the way i'm saving it into the bitmap?
Dim grfx As Graphics = pnl_Chart.CreateGraphics()<br />
grfx = Graphics.FromImage(new_snapshot)
Or the problem on the paint event?
e.Graphics.DrawImage(new_snapshot, 0, 0)
Anyway, I feel this is not the most efficient way for storing/displaying something but its what i've only managed, so any suggestions on performance issues?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Jensen

Are you performing some transformations, as in Graphics.ScaleTransform() and many others?
What is the size of your Bitmap?
jensenx wrote: Or the way i'm saving it into the bitmap?
You are not really saving to bitmap, you are drawing inside the Bitmap, aren't you?
You might consider showing the entire bitmap creation, graphics and drawing method,
as well as the Paint handler.

Hi,
I am not sure what is causing the problem; here are some remarks:
1.
you call Dispose() on PaintEventArgs, which is wrong: you did not create that event, nor
did you call a method that creates it, so you should not dispose of it, it is not yours at all.
2.
you don't call Dispose() on new Font(...) in DrawString(...); here you did
ask for the creation and you don't Dispose(); that's a memory leak. If it's only one font
that you need regularly, you might want to create it once and keep it in a class member.
3.
you don't call Dispose() on pnl_Chart.CreateGraphics() in new Bitmap(...); here you did
ask for the creation and you don't Dispose(); that's a memory leak. A Graphics is a big
object, older Windows only can handle a few of them, so you really should dispose() of it.
4.
you explicitly specify GraphicsUnit.Point in new Font(...); although it seems correct,
I have never used it. Try omitting that argument. font sizes are in points by default.
Apart from these, I could not see anything wrong and causing the effects you described.
BTW: why do you show code in CODE tags? it would read much easier in PRE tags!

Hi again!
Thx for your response. I've looked into those areas you have highlighted and made necessary changes.
One for instanc; instead of calling a new Font everytime, ive Dim verdanaFont as New Font ("VERDANA",7.0), is this right?
Cause im still having the same problem 
I would appreciate if someone could write up a simple app to have the same concept of drawing the string into a bitmap then later painting the bitmap onto screen.
Oh and about using 'code' instead of 'pre', im still quite new around here. I've wanted to paste my codes in, and by looking at the formatting available below, the word code stands out, even more when its in red.  Will use pre next time!
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
jensen

A quick alteration!
i've managed to solve the problem by writing the codes a lil differently but using the same concept....dont know why this new way works....
but anyhow
Cheers!
