Sure. You have to calculate and/or supply all the points, then create the drawing code to "connect the dots".

There is an issue that I am still struggling with.

What is the correct technique for calling back to classes in the main .exe from an assembly that is discovered only through reflection, dynamically, at runtime?

I created a sub in the assembly .dll:

Public shared me.host as object
sub initializeassembly(byval host as object)
me.host = host
end sub

and called that sub from the main.

the I called the (public) class in the main from the .dll:

host.subinmain()

However, I find that the class in the main is sometimes disposed of before it is called.

Is it proper to use this technique? What is the alternative? It was suggested to me that I could use an interface, but but I don't see how that really helps, because the name of the class in the main still has to be passed somehow to the .dll

Thanks as always for your time..

In VB.NET 2005.

I have a button that i want to put an image on (normal bitmap), so i have done via the properties menu, and the image is stored in the resources.

It shows up as being fine in the design view, but when i try to run it, it aint showing up.

Any ideas, i have never used this feature before so i am not sure if i need to do something else??

Cheers all

HAve you set the Image property?

Are you using VB.NET or VB6? What do you mean by "Database Objects"? Which classes are you talking about?

Well Im using VB6.
By Database Objects I mean using objects of the classes imported after adding the reference Microsoft DAO 3.6 object library.

Why? That was the last version of DAO Microsoft put out, about 7 years ago (I think!) You might want to move up to something a little more modern and, more importantly, still supported, like ADO.

Better yet, move from VB6 to VB.NET.

Fine!
Wat i exactly wanna no is that whether i can connect DataBound controls to Database Objects of DAO and ADODB library at runtime or not?
I tried but couldnt make it.
If it can be will plz give some code....
To remind u im using VB6.

Yes, it's possible. But, I have no examples. I haven't used VB6 in about 6 years now. Examples using DAO are few and far between. If you Google for "VB6 DAO"[^], you'll see some examples, but many problems too.

Hi,

I want to enable the autorun in pendrive when i insert into my usb port.
By same as CD Autorun

I already tried with autorun.ini and put to pendrive but no use.

Please tell me if anybody knows.......

This has to be a setting enabled in the O/S. There's nothing you can do in code on the pendrive to enable this functionality.

I said you couldn't enable it from code autolaunched on the USB key. I didn't say you couldn't enable it at all.

It's amazing what 10 seconds of Googling can find when you type in "autoplay udb drive[^]".
