There's another way to do this without using MDI. You can find an example in this[^] MSDN article, or if MSDN is responding, like it is now, you can search for it later by Googling for "Five Tricks for your Visual Basic .NET bag".

I have hierarchical data that the user can make one of four choices about. The primary treeview manages @900 rows of data that collapsed to @100 groups.
I need to draw a tree view with a 'radio button group' where the radio buttons are related to the treeview node index.
I have made a User Control for the 4 radio button but can't quite figure out:
1) How to Position the radiobuttonControl to align with the tree view node
2) Linkage to connect the option group data to the index appropriate treeview node
i.e.
[a,b,c,d] tvNode1
[a,b,c,d] tvNode2
Each control is located on separate panels, panel 1 is for the radio buttons, panel 2 is for the Treeview. - Is there may be a better way???
TIA

I am trying to create a program that allows users to create new folders and set security permissions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. VBV.NET/ NET Framework 2.0

You will have access to the Directory object.
You can do a Directory.CreateDirectory(path, directorySecurity)
where path is your new folder
and directorySecurity is the directory security for the folder.
Here some sample code from Microsoft help on directorysecurity:
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Security.AccessControl
Module DirectoryExample
Sub Main()
Try
Dim DirectoryName As String = "TestDirectory"
Console.WriteLine("Adding access control entry for " + DirectoryName)
' Add the access control entry to the directory.
AddDirectorySecurity(DirectoryName, "MYDOMAIN\MyAccount", FileSystemRights.ReadData, AccessControlType.Allow)
Console.WriteLine("Removing access control entry from " + DirectoryName)
' Remove the access control entry from the directory.
RemoveDirectorySecurity(DirectoryName, "MYDOMAIN\MyAccount", FileSystemRights.ReadData, AccessControlType.Allow)
Console.WriteLine("Done.")
Catch e As Exception
Console.WriteLine(e)
End Try
Console.ReadLine()
End Sub
' Adds an ACL entry on the specified directory for the specified account.
Sub AddDirectorySecurity(ByVal FileName As String, ByVal Account As String, ByVal Rights As FileSystemRights, ByVal ControlType As AccessControlType)
' Create a new DirectoryInfoobject.
Dim dInfo As New DirectoryInfo(FileName)
' Get a DirectorySecurity object that represents the
' current security settings.
Dim dSecurity As DirectorySecurity = dInfo.GetAccessControl()
' Add the FileSystemAccessRule to the security settings.
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(Account, Rights, ControlType))
' Set the new access settings.
dInfo.SetAccessControl(dSecurity)
Hope that helps.

This is because you tried to do something like this:
Private Sub Method1()
.
.
.
Private Sub Method2()
.
.
.
End Sub
.
.
.
End Sub
You tried to define a method inside another method. Obviously, you can't do that.

That's because you have to write the code that highlights the found text. It doesn't happen automatically.

What do you mean "not able to find that"? Of course you can't find it, you haven't written it yet!
Start with the Find() method of the RichTextBox. It'll return the text position of the first occurance of whatever you want to find. You the use that value to set the RTB's SelectionStart property and the length of your serarch term to set the SelectionLength property to highlight the text. Then call the RTB's ScrollToCaret method to make sure that the user can see the highlight.
The rest is left up to you as an exercise.

in my application i am using database connection where ever i am opening the connection i have used con.close to close the connection but its not getting closed
with regards
Balagurunathan.B

.NET uses connection pooling. The connection will stay open in the background and when you create a new connection you'll get the previous (pooled) connection. This saves a lot of time because creating the initial connection can be time consuming.
|
|
|
|
|
so if i want to close it means wat i have to do
why i am asking is then only i can continue the next process
it is must for my project

What process? Why do you have to do this?

in my application i will be using many temporary tables and later if i want to give a fresh process without closing the application i have to delete the database as i dono how many tables r there even if i know that it will be a very time consuming one so ineed to close the database and delete it later i will create it .
although its the bad practice i have to do that

I had a similiar issue a while back - I'd be updating thousands of records at a time, but eventually ran into problems with time out errors with SQL. I thought I'd done everything right (followed Microsoft Best Practices)
But the problem was not really with wondering how to forcefully close a connection (my first guess) or to disable connection pooling, it was with how I created the connection in the first place and my management of that connection for the lifetime of the application.
If you've got code that constantly opens and closes a connection to the exact same datasource, I'd maybe rethink that code and only open it once and close it once (with capability to reopen if the connection is lost). I've found that even with connection pooling working and all, when you open a connection more than once, more than one connection is created to the data source.

so i have to open it once and have to close the connection only once is it

Depends on how you are using the connection really - I find that if I am using a database connection that I know that has the potential for more than a few transactions I'd think about how I am opening and closing those connections.
What I used todo is open and close a connection on each transaction to the database. This worked fine in most test cases, but as Colin mentioned, it takes time. So as insert would open the connection, do it's stuff and then close. Problem I found was that even though the connection string was exactly the same I'd be creating something like 20 connections into the database for the one instance of the application. Maybe it was something dodgy in my code (most likely)!
When you need to update records in the thousands or millions, this is just really in-efficient.
Then I went to opening the connection when the class used to represent the database (in a nutshell) was instaniated, then closed in the destructor. This works fine now and even in a tiered architecture (albeit with some changes) it generally scales quite well.
