I want to bring up the context menu when a choose a record from a listbox. By right clicking on the record but it does not select or highlight the record. How can I do this. I see where I can see a click event but not a rightclick event. If I can't how do I initiate the contextmenu without rightclicking.
Thanks.

IIRC there are CP articles on this. Use Search facilities !

thank you but, I am not finding anything that allows me to select an item in a list by rightclicking on it. do you know what article would have this info? thanks.

searching CP for "listbox contextmenu" yields more than 20 hits, including this one[^].
Showing a contextmenu and selecting an item are two different things.
If you need a contextmenu that depends on the item your mouse is hovering above,
that article will do it.
If you want the item to be selected, what is the problem ? determine the item's
index, then call myListBox.SetSelected(index, true);
Hope this helps.

I am trying to select a listbox item using the right click not the left click. At the same time I want the contextmenu to come up so I can use the listbox item with my menu.
Ex: Listbox
Tim Robbins 123 4th street
Bonny Tyler 1888 8th Street.
I want to hover over a record and right click and select(highlight) the record. The context menu will have edit in it. When I click on edit I want all the data from the record that I selected to populate into fields. Can this be done? I see this all the time in Microsoft applications.

Hi,
you are right, I just learned there is something different about mouse clicking
for a listbox; it does not behave like other controls such as a panel:
- Click and MouseClick events only work for the left click, not the right click.
and for both MSDN says "This event supports the .NET Framework infrastructure
and is not intended to be used directly from your code."
- MouseDown and MouseUp events do work normally; they offer a MouseEventArgs
with Button property, so that is what should get you started.

If some can give me the difference between all this three technology
this will help me very much or if you can guide me from where i can read about the difference between those 3 thechniques.
Thanks a lot

I have made a string variable and have populated it into a Word document (.doc). Now, is it possible to make changes to the text in the word document, then parse that information back into a string variable in the VBA code? (perferably replace the string I used to populate the Word document in the first place) Thanks for your help.

How to Change the color of Message Box in vb.net
|
|
|
|
|
You can't. You have to create your own message box using a standard form and a couple of buttons.
Only then will you have complete control over the visual appearance of your message box.

Thanks for your answer. Is it possible to add the attachment using this method?

I think anything other than what Prasad has shown will require you to Interop with Outlook. Search Google[^] for details.

I'v never tryd this before (I always use a ftp fileserver and a path in the database) but I think you can just get the image the same way as you would request a string from the sql server.
If not you might want to consider using a file server and only a path in the database for it will most likly be faster and you're database size will be much smaller

There are almost as many examples of this on the web as there are chat applications. All you have to do is Google for "sql server 2000 vb.net store retrieve image[^]".
Do NOT use the term "urgent" aywhere in your posts. This tends to get you ignored. If it were that urgent, you'd be Googling this question yourself, until your fingers bled.

hi

<br />
<br />
Dim arrPicture() As Byte = CType(dsPictures.Tables(0).Rows(rowindex)("Picture"), Byte())<br />
<br />
Dim ms As New MemoryStream(arrPicture)<br />
PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)

hi
do you have vb.net code to find harddisk serial number and mainboard
thanks
|
|
|
|
|
So, how many timers are you going to post this question, then ignore the replys you get?
You're making a huge assumption. Most motherboard don't expose any kind of serial number.
You can get the serial number of most harddrives using the links you got 2 days ago.
CPU serial numbers (CPUID) are turnedoff by defulat in just about all systems. Relying on either CPU or motherboard serial numbers is a very bad idea if you're looking to use them for securing your application. There is NOTHING that says a hardware manufacturer has to incorporate them into the hardware and even less that says it should be readable by any code.

i have fnished my VB.net Application. i want to install the Application to a System that has not .net Framework installed. and some other system have .Net installed. my application is a database application that connects to a SQL server that is in another Building. when i run my applicatin in another system, even if .Net framework is installed it gives me the Following Error
<br />
Request for the Permission of Type System.Data.SQlClient.SQlClientPermission, System.data, Version= 1.0.5000.0, Culture=Neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 failed.<br />
Thank you

This looks like a permissions issue from the error message.
The user you are running the application under will need to be registered both on the server and the SQL database.
Have you checked this?
You always pass failure on the way to success.

so does it mean i have to create a User for every peson who has to use the application?
if i create my application in my connection strng i pass the user iD of an Admnistrator and the password, Doesnt it uses that credentials to run on any machine?
