If you are using something like InstallShield, you could create an installer for the font, then from your program execute the install, should the font be missing.

At installation time is the most appropriate time to do this. Installing a font is only done through Win32 functions. It's NOT a simple matter of just copying a file to a folder.
If you really want to do this, Google for "how to install font vb.net c#".

Now I am doing one project in vb.net with ms access for offline test.
In my project I had one command button named as "View Questions". If I Click this button first five question will be displayed with four optional answers.
Question are displayed using Label control. And the optional answers are displayed using radio button. These controls are created at the runtime only not at the design time. The radio button are grouped into Panel and the panel control name is pane1. the radio button names are radio1,radio2,radio3,radio4.
Now problem is if I click radio1, it goes into database and check the answer in the database and if it is right answer the mark stored in the another field of the same table should returned and it should be added in the separate variable.
Anotherthing I didn't use array concept to create controls. (i.e) I had use the following line to create the conrols at runtime.
Public radio1, radio2, radio3, radio4 As Windows.Forms.RadioButton
Public pane1 As Windows.Forms.Panel
Public label As Windows.Forms.Label
label = New Label()
radio1 = New RadioButton()
radio2 = New RadioButton()
radio3 = New RadioButton()
radio4 = New RadioButton()
pane1 = New Panel()
Me.Controls.Add(label)
Me.Controls.Add(pane1)
Me.Controls.Add(radio1)
Me.Controls.Add(radio2)
Me.Controls.Add(radio3)
Me.Controls.Add(radio4)
pane1.Controls.Add(radio1)
pane1.Controls.Add(radio2)
pane1.Controls.Add(radio3)
pane1.Controls.Add(radio4)
AddHandler radio1.Click, AddressOf GenericClick
AddHandler radio2.Click, AddressOf GenericClick1
AddHandler radio3.Click, AddressOf GenericClick2
AddHandler radio4.Click, AddressOf GenericClick3
According to the no of question that are stored in the database, the controls will be created. Controls are creted by using forloop.

So....what's the question?
|
|
|
|
|
"If I click the answer(ie) radio button, it should check the database for answer and if the answer is correct it should add the mark to a separate variable". This is my problem in my project.
Marks are stored along in the question table.
question table contians the fields such as Qno, Question, Ans1,Ans2,Ans3, Ans4, CorrectAnswer,Mark.

The users marks should not go into the questions table. They should go into a table that lists the users ID, the question ID, and the users mark for that question. The correct answer should be obtained from the question table. You can update this table when the user clicks on an answer on the form.
After that it's a simply matter of retrieving the correct mark from the question and the users mark from this new table.
|
|
|
|
|
My next problem, I had created the radiobutton only at the runtime of the form. All radio button for all questions are added on a panel at each and every qestions. There is no common name or id for radiobuttons. How can i get the value of checked radiobutton.

You create them and wire them up the same way the designer generated code does.
Dim newRadioButton As New RadioButton
With newRadioButton
.Location = blah
.Text = blah
blah
blah
End With
Panel1.Controls.Add(newRadioBUtton)
|
|
|
|
|
Creating radiobutton is not my problem? Only getting the value of all runtime radiobuttons at the single button click is my problem. see the following code:
Public Function Createcontrols(ByVal intidx As Integer)
radio1 = New RadioButton()
radio2 = New RadioButton()
radio1.Top = r1
radio1.Left = x
radio1.Height = 25
radio1.Width = 150
radio1.Text = ans1
Me.Controls.Add(radio1)
radio2.Top = r1
radio2.Left = r2
radio2.Height = 25
radio2.Width = 150
radio2.Text = ans2
Me.Controls.Add(radio2)
Panel1.Height = 25
Panel1.Width = 850
Panel1.Left = x
Panel1.Top = p1
Me.Controls.Add(Panel1)
Panel1.Controls.Add(radio1)
Panel1.Controls.Add(radio2)
end function
For intIdx = 0 To 4
Createcontrols(intIdx)
Next
by the above code i can get 5 radio1 and 5 radio2 on 5 panel control.
It is perfectly working.
But the problem is if I check any one radio button on all panel controls at a time (ie)keeping all 5 radio button's checked = true and then click submit button to get all checked radio button values.(ie) I have to print all checked radio buttons text in the msgbox.How can i print?

Well, you're defining a Function but not returning a value. Make this a Sub.
Next, inside this code, assign a Name to each of the radio buttons
radio1.Name = "Radio1"
or whatever name you want to use.
All you have to do is enumerate the controls on the panel:
Public Function GetRadioButtonChecked(ByVal controlName As String) As Boolean
For Each c As Control In Panel1.Controls
If TypeOf c Is RadioButton Then
Dim rb As RadioButton = DirectCast(c, RadioButton)
If rb.Name = controlName Then
Return rb.Checked
End If
End If
Next
Return False
End Function

Don't tell me you're automating Word from inside a Web Forms (ASP.NET) application?? This is a very bad idea because Word is a heavy weight object that takes forever to contruct and shutdown. It also takes a ton of memory and will just bog your application down, without even doing anything with it!
If you have Word documents, convert them to HTML format ahead of time, not when the page is requesting them.

Im having a problem with two different controls in VB.Net; the reportViewer and the webBrowser control. Everything seems to work fine until you come to print something, the first time I click the print button, or call the print method, nothing happens, the second time and thereafter everything works just fine. Has anyone else had a similar problem? or does anyone know to a solution? I've tried calling the print method twice with the webBrowser and even that doesn't work, I've also tried compiling it for release instead of debug.
|
|
|
|
|
I've never heard of the problem, not can I find any reference to it. What does you're printing code look like? I'm more than willing to bet the bug is with your code and not with the .NET Framework.
|
|
|
|
|
Well there is no code for the reportViewer its an embeded button in the control. and the printing code for the webBrowser is just a call to the ".print" method which takes no parameters.
|

I did finally find a blurb about the problem. Read[^] and Read[^].

cheers, I like microsoft's work around "To work around this problem, click Print again." classic!

A hotfix was released back in 2006. It's possible that it made it's way into SP1 for Visual Studio .NET 2005, though I can't confirm it.

Alegedly it has, unfortunatly, it doesnt solve the problem with the webBrowser control, I was hoping they were related, but it doesn't seem so

Hi, I just beginning programming in vb.net 2005. I found three control that I couldn't understand on how to use it. These control are Panel control, FlowLayoutPanel control and TableLayoutPanel control. I used to see groupbox and tab control but I understand about this control and know the logic how to use it.
But for these 3 controls above, i do not know where in what kind of situation that developer use these control?

1)The Panel acts as a container, similar to the groupbox, that you can use to move many controls at once or to group controls such as radiobuttons. The benefit of the panel is that you can hide the borders and set it's backcolor to transperent,so it is invisible which you can't do with GroupBox.
2) The Flowlayout panel acts in a way to dynamically order controls. Say you create a flow layout panel and add five buttons to it, you can tell it how to make it flow, whether they stack on each other vertically, Horizantally etc.
3) The Table Layout Panel allows you to define your form into sections, you can add rows and columns, and customize their sizes, in such a way as to seperate different parts of your form, or alter the layout.

Thank you very much for your explaination.

The first point i just understand because i also used to face a problem when I want to group a control and do not want the user to see the border of the group control.
But for the second and third explianation, I still don't understand. The point that I don't understand is in what circumstance during software development that we use FlowLayou Panel and TableLayoutPanel? For example: We use checkbox to let user choose more than one answer, or we use radio button in the circumstance that we want to give an opportunity to the user to choose only one choice.
Finally, thank you for your detail explaination

TableLayout : It's similar to using a table in word or html where the table simply defines the region for the content, in this case, the content is whatever controls you add. Another benefit is that using percentages in sizing, it will resize in proportion, which is good for making programs to cater for different resolutions.
FlowLayoutPanel is one of those things you sort of have to try out for yourself to get a feel for it, it's great when adding controls to the form by code and it lays it out automatically.

That's it. This real example that made me understand the reason that we use TableLayoutPanel and FlowLayoutPanel.
