Is it possible to create a MultiLine list box?
Any references that could point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Do you mean add items?
Here is how you add items:
lstBoxAddItem.Items.Add

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anybody knows the answer to this as i have looked and found nothing.
I have a form with several controls on it, i want to catch the keypress - easy enough but for all controls including the form not just the one with focus. The only way i can see is to add the event for every control, but i have about 75 controls on this form and this just doesn't seem logical.
any ideas
help is greatly appreciated.

Your form and a majority of controls in .NET should already have a KeyPress event. It's up to you to put code into those events to perform whatever action/task you want to accomplish.
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry I read wrong...but other than placing code in the KeyPress event...it really depends if you are doing a specify task for that control. If each task is different...I don't see a way around this.
Plus, if you just capture the KeyPress on the Form you will still have to delegate the task to some event/sub of that control and knowing which one to delegate to could be a real mess!

No he doesn't! See Form.KeyPreview[^]

AFAIK, this is the only way to do what you want, without writing keyboard hooks...

Thanks everybody for the replies.
Thought I'd let you know what i found out, although KeyPreview looked good i had just found what i wanted, this doesn't mean i not grateful for the reply as i am and i almost used it anyway as it looked good and i think i might still.
However i found two ways of doing something similar to what i wanted.
They are....
method 1, rather than have several key press events you can have one sub that handles them all if you add the keypress for each on the end of the event handles bit, although this does mean adding all 75 controls on the end like so....
Private Sub Button1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Button1.KeyPress, ListBox1.KeyPress, Label1.KeyPress, PictureBox1.KeyPress, etc.KeyPress
End Sub
method 2, found a piece of code to add the keypress handler for a control to another sub
Public Sub AddKeyPressEvent(ByVal ControlName As Control)
AddHandler ControlName.KeyPress, AddressOf GenericKeyPressEvent
End Sub
Public Sub GenericKeyPressEvent(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs)
MsgBox(e.KeyChar)
End Sub
You just call AddKeyPressEvent(Listbox1) and then it's keypress event will be GenericKeyPressEvent,
Using this i could loop through the controls on the form and add them all at startup, clunky but effective, however keypreveiw looks good.
Thanks again
Hope this helps someone else with this problem.;P

KeyPreview is overkill?  It's doing something very similar to what your two methods are doing in function, but with no code and is much quicker. All you're doing is putting the code your processing the keystrokes with into a different sub.

I am converting a working VB6 program to VB.net and am unable to
correctly pass these structures to the dll.
I think I have everything initialized correctly but am not sure.
Any help or comments on how to Marshal this data will be appreciated.

It would help to see what does work, so it can be correctly translated into VB.NET. Since it's very unlikely that anyone else is going to have the docs on the function your trying to call, it would help to see what's working!

I am not sure exactly what you are asking to see.
The call to the dll is the next to last line of the code sample and the declaration is about midway through the code.
Most of the dlls I work with are custom drivers for industrial machinery and I do not have access to the code or even the technical details of how the code works. I am given the method names and a sample of how to use them. The sample was given in VB6 and works.
I will be happy to email the full code and the driver dlls to anyone who is interested in commenting on getting this code to work.
Thanks for the interest.

You said you're converting a working VB6 app to VB.NET. How about seeing the working VB6 source your converting from?

This VB6 code works.
Note that I had removed some parameters from the VB.NET sample for brevity.
Thanks again.

plz if u know anything help me, tell me and thanx very much for all

You'll have to explain a little further...
Do you want VB to launch your email program and show you your mail?
Do you want VB to automate your email program to grab your mail for you?
or
Do you want VB to login to your mail server and download, parse, and display the messages for you?

hi
first of all thanx for ur reply
i wanna it want VB.net to login yo my mail server and then i can browse my mail there

for example if i have a mail in yahoo so i dont wanna go to http://mail.yahoo.com to sign in my mail i wanna my program do that and automatically put my ID and password it thier field, and then open my mail

hope u understand me and thanx again

If you wanted to do this on a SMTP mail server, it wouldn't be a problem. You just have to write your own SMTP mail client. Basically, duplicating Outlook Express.
If you wanted to go to Yahoo! mail, not you've got a much more difficult problem. Now your downloading and parsing web pages. You have to pick your mail messages out of the mountain of HTML that comes along with it. You also have to pick out links to attachments and "click" on each on of those to download them. Basically - a nightmare that isn't worth it.

hi again
i am really happy for ur answers although if i dont get anything from u, just i am happy because of ur answers.
i realy dont understand how is that can be done
if u can tell me which library should i import or which components shuld i use or if u can write a general or some sentances thats help me in that
the problem is how to implement the function which take the ID and the Password and send them to the yahoo mail server or hotmail server.(if the way to do this is different let us talk about yahoo )
i made a search in google about that and i found some components thats deal with emails but i didnt find what i want in them, they check the domain and the i ID but they dont connect to the mail and open it i i dont think they do that because they dont ask for the Password !!!!!
if u wanna i can send the Project inteface, it may help u what i want exactly.
if u can just tell me how can i implement these sentances and thanx
with my honor and respect to u

hi dudes !
i have a problem that i want to generate dynamic TextBoxes / Labels for my software .
for e.g.
if i write a query in a textbox like " Select * from Table1 "
it should generate a data report with all the fields in Tabel1 . the problem is data report is not helping me to generate new controls on runtime.
i know crystal report can handle it but i need to solve it in data reports for vb 6.0
looking for ur replys
Work Hard and Test your Luck

Hard to tell much from the limited information given, but ...
Either your textbox is not bound properly, or it is not in the right place. The VB6 DataReport only has one section that will actually create entries dynamically in a "repeater" fashion - the "Detail" section. Textboxes placed anywhere else can be databound but not to multiple entry tables.
