form1 is mdiparent with ismdicontainer as true
coding for form1
button_click event<br />
dim frm2 as new form2<br />
frm2.show()<br />
now in button click event in form2
<br />
dim frm3 as form3<br />
frm3.mdiparent=me.mdiparent<br />
frm3.show()<br />
this was your method..
the method which i am using is in form2 i code
button_click()<br />
dim frm3 as new form3<br />
frm3.mdiparent= form1<br />
frm3.show()<br />
this one works but only when form1 is startup form.
if form1 is any intermediate form and startup form is any other form then this method doesnt works..
any solution..??
thanks

You are right, I misread your post and thought Form2 was an MdiChild of Form1 as well.
I don't understand why you would ever use the scenario in your post. Generally, with Mdi applications you don't create forms that are not MdiChildren or Dialog forms (dialog forms must be closed before you can do anything else in the application, like the MessageBox). The reason for this is all your forms are neatly contained in the main application instead of spread out across your machine. But you know what you are trying to do better than me, just hope I was able to offer something helpful.

I want to create a tab dynamically and put a browser control in it.
BiG RaLpH
|
|
|
|
|
Dim newPage as New TabPage()
newPage.Controls.Add(New WebBrowser())
yourTabControl.TabPages.Add(newPage)
That's about the simplest form of it.

|
|
|
|
now how can I access it?
BiG RaLpH
|
|
|
|
|
there a few possible ways:
1) declare the control you want to access global (dim w as webbrowser)
when you create it you first need to initialize it ( w = new webbrowser)
this way you can access the control from anywhere (always check first if it has been initialized ( if w isnot nothing then 'do you're code))
2) when you create the control give it a unique name (w.name = "unique")
then when you want to access it you can just run true the controls on you tabcontrol (normally all tabpages) and for each tabpage run true his controls and compare name
(if control.name.tolower.equals("unique") then ' do you're code)
this is a bit more work and I think it's better to use the first option (for performance) but it should also work
hope this helps
If my help was helpfull let me know, if not let me know why.
The only way we learn is by making mistaks.

Hello all!
I'm having a complicated problem here, here goes;
At my development workspace, im running on Vista, VB .net 2005 and the DB on SQL Express 2005. Now i would normally insert a date value as such;
INSERT INTO Table(DateColumn) VALUES ('" & "yyyymmdd" & '")
The date that is in yyyymmdd format without slashes in between, and its in a string format.
As far as it is, it works well.
But now my problem is, when I tried my program on another system (Windows XP), I couldnt be able to insert a date in such a way, an error states that 'unable to convert to smalldatetime ..etc'
ive' tried changing my method to as such,
INSERT INTO Table(DateColumn) VALUES (" & dateValue.Date & ")
it works, to most extent, but the weird part is, some areas in my program dint turn out to work as well as it's expected. The values are inserted into the DB but its showing "1/1/1900" ! As mentioned, using the same identical method on other areas dint have a problem.
What should I do? Why couldnt I in the first place, replicate the success I had over with my Vista workspace onto the other PC. (2 in fact, both running on XP).
Should I define how the database should accept date values? or? 
Thanks in advance! Do need some advices here.. 
Regards,
Jensen

This is the problem with using string concantenation to build SQL query statements. Convert this to a parameterized query and you shouldn't have a problem with it at all.
Read SQL Injection Attacks[^] and it'll explain what a parameterized query is.
|
|
|
|
|
I know about creating parameterized queries but ive used it only at certains areas in my program.
I dint know its significant until now! It's really odd and I wouldn't have known if I dint come in here and asked!
Thanks once again!

Have you tried something like this:
INSERT INTO Table(DateColumn) VALUES (cast '" & "yyyymmdd" & '" as date)
You always pass failure on the way to success.
|
|
|
|
|
yes, but it works on some statements and wouldnt work the other half, its oddly strange but ive used the method specified by Dave ( see above ). It works, guess from now, ill just build all my statements using parameters.
but thanks for the suggestion! 
|
|
|
|
|
maybe this is not really a problem with your SQL statement:
Private Sub frmMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim dt As New DateTime
Console.WriteLine("New Date {0}, Year={1}, Month={2}, Day={3}", dt.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd"), dt.Year.ToString(), dt.Month.ToString(), dt.Day.ToString())
End Sub
what does your db do with "empty" dates?

I’m working on creating a Visio 2003 organization chart over .net, I have been code it by using VB.Net 2005. What I’m trying to do is to retrieve the organization chart hierarchical from the database and store it as an html web page. I have been used the organization chart wizard for creating the chart shapes and I used VisSaveAsWeb object to save the chart as a web page. My problem is that the org chart shapes doesn’t formatted correctly after resizing the shapes to fit with it text. Is there any one know how could I control the shape position to relocate it into it right place
and this is my peace of code

Can't. You haven't supplied any information about what the problem is.

This is more of a SQL question.
I have come across this situation myself and my suggestion is to try and detach and then re-attach the database in Enterprise Manager - this sometimes fixes the issue.
I don't want to recommend deletion of log files etc as I don't want to be held responsible for loss of data.
Googling the issue bought this up:
A database can be marked for many reasons. Generally it falls into the following conditions :
* A database or log file is missing.
* In SQL 6.5, a device may not be present or in 7.0/2000 a file may not exist.
* SQL Server may not have been able to restore the database in ample time.
* The database could be corrupt.
* The database is being help by the operating system. This could be a 3rd party backup software or defrag software. I've had even a virus scanning software cause this once.
* SQL Server does not have enough space to recover the database on startup.
You always pass failure on the way to success.

what r the properties to change the progressbar forecolor and backcolor
|
|
|
|
|
There are no properties for this. If you want to change the appearance of the ProgressBar, you're going to have to create your own version of it. Create a new class that inherits from ProgessBar and add the properties and code for BackColor, ForeColor, and all the drawing code to custom draw the control.

Hola,
I am working on a tool that from one side connects to a simulation model using ActiveX and to the other side to a control system via Sockets.
The only thing the tool should do is making connections to both parties (simulation model and real controls) and send message through between the two components.
For the socket side of the tool I made this code with a lot of copy pasting from websites (see below). But it doesnt work... A connection is made, but receiving and sending is not working. I dont understand what to do with the receive function (which parameters). I only want to receive a string (size 100) through the connection. Sending seems to work because the real controls get stuck when I call the SendMessage sub.
Another question is how I can automatically react on a incoming message instead of checking this every 0.1 sec (I call the sub every 0.1 sec). Is there an event defined that wakes up when incoming data arrives?
Please help.

The problem with copy'n'paste coding is that you have little to no understanding of the code, how it works, or why. This alone makes it impossible for you to support the code. When something breaks, you're utterly lost.
Using a Timer to call anyof this code is a really bad idea. You've got no control over the flow of the code and the data it's carrying.
Here's[^] a good example of how it should be done. You should study the Server side of this code.

Hi All
i have a Function in my Component(DAL), the Function Accept an intiger value and return a dataset.
<br />
<br />
Public Function Search_lis(ByVal lis_key As Integer) As Dssearchlis<br />
<br />
dasearchlis.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add(lis_key)<br />
dasearchlis.Fill(Dssearchlis)<br />
If Dssearchlis.Tables("Property_Mass").Rows.Count = 0 Then<br />
MsgBox("Township not Found")<br />
Else<br />
Dssearchlis.Clear()<br />
dasearchlis.Fill(Dssearchlis)<br />
<br />
End If<br />
Return Dssearchlis<br />
End Function<br />
Am Calling this Function in my Form. like this
Dim objsearch As New PropDAL.Properties
Dim dsdata As New PropDAL.dssearchlis
Dim txtseachlis As Integer
txtseachlis = Val(txtlisSearch.Text)
Dim strErrorMsg As String
Dim strerror As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError
Try
dsdata = objsearch.Search_lis(txtseachlis)
dgr.DataMember = "Property_Mass"
dgr.DataSource = dsdata
Catch ExSQL As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException
''''All this will trap all data Problems and Network if available
For Each strerror In ExSQL.Errors
Next
Select Case strerror.Number
Case 17
strErrorMsg = "Missing server"
Case 4060
strErrorMsg = "Missing database"
Case 18456
strErrorMsg = "Missing user name or password"
Case Else
strErrorMsg = strerror.Message
End Select
MessageBox.Show(strErrorMsg, "SQL Server Error: " & strerror.Number, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
Catch ExcpInvOp As System.InvalidOperationException
MessageBox.Show("Close the connection first!", "Invalid Operation", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
Catch Excp As System.Exception ' generic exception handler
MessageBox.Show(Excp.Message, "Unexpected Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
What is Wrong , and what should i put in mind when dealing with parameters, i know i should have used a storedProcedure, but for now i need to use this.
Thanks

Should this not be in the coding horrors forum?
|
|
|
|

This code has so many problems, I don't know where to start...
First, you've made a VB.NET 101 mistake. You're returning an object of type Dssearchlis, which is also the name of an apparently "global" object. It get the feeling that you're returning the exact same object that is already visible outside the function, making retuning the object pointless.
