(NT uses .DLL files.) There is an example on a link at the bottom of this page. (It assumes you have already put in the registry entries, where windows expects them.) http://mentalis.org/apilist/LoadKeyboardLayout.shtml[^] progload POPING NEW FORM THROUGH Timers. blucas200510-Feb-06 19:47 blucas2005 10-Feb-06 19:47  I'm trying to make a new windows form through a timer elapsed event one form runs the timer that trigger the event and pops another form BUG: the poping form will not shou form elements like buttons or labels does anyone know what I am doing wrong???

Re: POPING NEW FORM THROUGH Timers. Dave Kreskowiak11-Feb-06 8:03 Dave Kreskowiak 11-Feb-06 8:03  The problem is you're using the wrong Timer. The callback from the Timer is run on a seperate thread, therefor, you're creating your new form on a seperate thread which will have no access to the app's message pump. The form, and it's controls, will not properly receive the WM_PAINT message. Keep the Form creation on the UI thread (the same thread your StartUp form is created on). Use the Form's Timer control instead. This will fire an event on the same thread as the UI and let you create the new form on that same thread.

The component would have to get this information and post it back to the server in some form. Do I have any articles on this? No. This is an old ActiveX type project, typically found in VB6. Why do I not recommend VB.NET? None of the .NET Managed languages support targeting a true ActiveX control. Any component you build in VB.NET will require the web client to have the .NET Framework installed in order to run your component.

Polymorpher10-Feb-06 15:14 Polymorpher 10-Feb-06 15:14  I am trying to make a base form that has the controls that i want every other form in my program to have...i thought maybe i could just build that form and then have my other forms inherit from it so they would have those same controls and then i could add the extra stuff that the indevidual form needed...but it wont let me open my forms that inherit from the base form in the designer......Im not sure what if anything i can do about this, but if you have any ideas pleas let me know.

Ray Cassick11-Feb-06 8:15 Ray Cassick 11-Feb-06 8:15  You can't edit the inheriting form (at least not the parts that have been inherited). but you should be able to add controls to it and edit those.

Rana Muhammad Javed Khan12-Feb-06 19:14 Rana Muhammad Javed Khan 12-Feb-06 19:14  hmmm the control which you want to edit in inherited form make its Modifier Property Value = "Public" then you will be abe to edit it.

Ray Cassick11-Feb-06 8:14 Ray Cassick 11-Feb-06 8:14  No it causes problems on its own. People try it. IMHO it SHOULD let you but it doe snot work right, It stops you from being able to even open a form that derives from the base form in the designer at all.

How do I or where do I create a registry key like that Can you help me? Thank you, chatura Re: How to create a hidden registry key Dave Kreskowiak10-Feb-06 14:19 Dave Kreskowiak 10-Feb-06 14:19  Chatura Dilan wrote: I want to create a hidden registry key There's no such thing. The only thing you can do is setup security on the key that prevents other users from being able to see it if THEY run RegEdit. This requires knowledge of how Windows Security works, permissions, ACL's, ... The .NET Framework 1.0 and 1.1 does not provide any native support for doing this, so you have to write the code to P/Invoke all the necessary functions to setup security.

When I run the program it only puts numbers 1 thru 6, which are the number of columns I have in the Bar2d graph. I would like to replace the 1 thru 6 with for example Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun.
