You could fake it by putting a panel control on your form, set its BorderStyle property to 3d, and dock it in the middle of the form. Then set the form's FormBorderStyle property to none.

I was wondering if it is possible to detect any application such as Microsoft Word or Paint when it is trying to start up. I want the program I'm putting together to detect any program not just a specific one. I would greatly appreciate any help here, because I have been searching the internet for weeks with no results to show for it. I've posted here as a last resort to see if there is something I may not know about or may have overlooked. I just need to know how this can be done, if it can be done, I don't need to be shown, but thanks anyway. If I could get a reply that would be great as this is for my senior project that will be due near the end of the 2007-2008 school year.
I thank anyone who reads this in advance for at least taking the time to read this in the event they could possibly help.

As far as I know it is more or less possible, meaning that you can detect whether a certain application is running. If you just check frequently enough it will work just as well as catching its starting event. (I am not saying that it isn't possible to catch that somehow, but I just don't know how)
You are going to have to look into checking for processes and their windows' handles, class names and such.
Good luck,
Johan

Ok, I figured this one out myself with a little more digging. Processes can be detected through a ManagementEventWatcher. I hope this will help anyone with the same problem...

Hi,
I'm currently writing a program where I need to open a new form when I press a command button. I have no clue how to do this. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

I recommend buying a book on VB.NET and working through it. To create a new form, just create an instance of it's class, and call ShowDialog() on it. But, as I said, if you didn't know this, you'd probably benefit from buying a book.

dim newform as new yourForm()
newform.show() 'or newform.showdialog()
'newform is the variable name of the original form
'yourForm is the name of the form that you want to show...
'its just something like making an instance of an object.

i have a string format "18:15:15"(fetch from a dataset)
i want to convert it to time format.. but i cant... ive tried to concatinate the time to "1/1/1900 "&"18:15:15", and convert it using the ff:
assume that datevalue = "1/1/1900 "&"18:15:15"
Convert.ToDateTime(datevalue)
ctype(datevalue,datetime)
date.parse(datevalue)
but still im recieving an error message :
String is not recognized as a valid datetime... please help me...
i am using vb.net 2002 and im fetching data from mssql 200
tnx in advance!!!

Why are you storing the times as strings in SQL Server ? Seems to me that you can just call the split method on your string, and use int.tryparse to get out the hours, minutes, seconds.

date.parse("18:15:15") worked for me but I'm using VS 2005. If that really won't work you might try Date.ParseExact if that's available to you. It would look something like this.
Dim t As Date = Date.ParseExact("18:15:15", "HH:mm:ss", Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)If that fails you could fall back to the split function which has already been suggested.

it still doesnt work...
maybe i havent supplied you an enough information...
here's my code... please help me...
Private ds_schedule As New DataSet()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim Connect As New SqlConnection(ConnectionString)
strSQL = "select t.tload_id,t.date_value,convert(char(10),t.start_time,14) start_time,convert(char(10),t.end_time,8) end_time,upper(r.last_name)+', '+r.first_name teacher_name,secondary_teacher_id,datediff(hh,t.start_time,t.end_time)*t.rate totla_rate,t.remarks FROM dbo.ttcpCustomizedSchedule t left outer join dbo.ResourcePersons r on r.teacher_id=t.teacher_id where t.tload_id = " & tload_id.ToString & "order by date_value"
Dim data_adapter As SqlDataAdapter
data_adapter = New SqlDataAdapter(strSQL, Connect)
data_adapter.TableMappings.Add("Table", "ttcpcustomizedschedule")
data_adapter.Fill(ds_schedule)
dtgCustomSched.SetDataBinding(ds_schedule, "ttcpcustomizedschedule")
Dim dateValue As Date
Dim startdate As Date
Dim enddate As Date
row = dtgCustomSched.CurrentRowIndex
dateValue = dtgCustomSched.Item(row, 1)
startdate = Date.ParseExact(dtgCustomSched.Item(row, 2), "HH:mm:ss", Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)
enddate = Date.ParseExact(dtgCustomSched.Item(row, 3), "HH:mm:ss", Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)
ConnectionString==my connection that is working properly
dtgCustomSched==the name of my datagrid
ds_schedule==the name of my dataset
dbo.ttcpCustomizedSchedule = table name
i think ther must be something wrong with the interaction of the dataset,datgrid,and data adapter... but i dont know what it is...
thanx!

What error are you getting?
What line throws the error?
(Assuming the problem is with ParseExact) Have you tried stepping into your code and verified dtgCustomSched.Item(row,2) is returning what you expect? Also note that the format of the string must be like this "03:22:12" NOT "3:22:12". If you don't use leading zero's then you need to change the formating string. "H:m:s" will allow for optional leading zeros.

i already check on those things.. but still, im getting the same error...
dtgCustomSched.Item(row,2) is returning what you expect? == gives me the right string with leading zeros
|
|
|
|
|
What error are you getting? == String is not recognized as a valid datetime
What line throws the error? == startdate=Date.ParseExact(dtgCustomSched.Item(row, 2), "HH:mm:ss"
i already used the "H:m:s" format but still, nothing happened.
thanx in advance!

Try replacing dtgCustomSched.Item(row,2) with a literal string that represents a time. Something like "12:29:01". That should certainly work. Once you've verified that try using a string variable to hold the date instead of using dtgCustomSched.Item(row,2) directly. So simply assign that value to a string and then in the ParseExact line use the string variable instead. Worth a shot I guess. If that doesn't work then go back and double and triple check the string your getting from the DB. Are you sure there aren't any other characters in it that you don't want. A space? Some sort of linefeed character or something silly like that? Basically if the string isn't 8 characters long then something isn't right. In fact try using the string.length function to verify it's length.
If you still can't get it I'd try another method. Do as christian said and use the string.split function to parse the numbers out of the string. Once you've got the individual hours, minutes, and seconds you should be able to pass those to the constructor of the date class to create your date object.
