AFAIK there should not be any difference in the classes available in C# and those in VB.Net unless you wrote it.

In case you have written it and its just a matter of using classes, then create a class library project, compile it to a dll and add as reference.

Hello everybody,

in order to group radio buttons (and other controls) I use a class "clsCheckGroup" which inherits GroupBox.

When it comes to using it on a form I face visual differences between other (normal) groupboxes and my "checkgroup" (i.e. font color). In the designer I found that the normal groupboxes implement "me.Groupname.UseVisualStyleBackColor = True" which my class can't implement (error msg: "...is not a member of...").

What would I have to do (i.e. add to my class) in order to use the visual styles?

Thank you
Michael

What? I am not sure what you want. Do you want an installer that can be run a limited number of times or do you want to restrict the number of users that can use your software?

so if you want to do this in c# why are you asking in vb.net forum?
what have you done so far, where are your problems? simply saying "I want" doesn't get you any answers, but the abuse of the community

You should include them in your installer, as you cannot be sure that you PC on which the software is installed will always have them installed.

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about remoting. We have a server app running on a TCP port where clients can connect to do do all sorts of stuff. These clients are connected over the internet.

At the backend, we have our database which the clients query and some other applications ( including management app for the clients, a website etc) connects to this database.

Recently, we started moving everything into remoting hosted on IIS for easier use and scalibility ( since most of these apps are doing the same stuff in the same database)

Now my question is regarded to the Server application. In there, we have a list of clients ( list(of MyClientClass) to represent the collection of connected clients.

I would like to be able to query this "live" list of connected clients and do stuff with them from my different applications. Moreover, i would like to be able to put multiple of these Servers but still be able to treat the connected clients as one collection (if possible).

I was thinking remoting both the "client class" as the list of connected clients. Although this has a few minor performance drawbacks ( servers and IIS hosted remoting are in the same place connected over 1 Gbit Ethernet so that should not be such a worry right ?), it makes it easy to interact with the connected client collection.

Is this the way to go or should i consider other options ?

Thanks !

visibility of tabpage for tabcontrol [modified]

Hi to all,

could anyone please tell me how to restrict the user for different tabpage in a tabcontrol in vb.net2005
Basically in my code I want to restrict the user to click some particular tabpage in the tabcontrol. Like how we can do for button (button1.visible=false)...
The user should not be able to click only to view the contents

Or it will be more useful for me if there is anything like tabpage.visible=false. User wont be able to view the tabpage only

Thanks in advance

Tabcontrol is not meant for this purpose. All you can do is that either add and remove the tabpage whenever required. Other than this you can use WndProc method to trap when the user has clicked on the concerned tab page and filter it.

He never mentioned it is the last page. Instead of count - 1 thingy use the required index.

Hi everyone, I am facing two problems, kindly refer:

1) In Vb.Net 2005, how is it possible to make the
TabPage.Text to appear when the DrawMode of a TabControl
is set to OwnerDrawFixed. I have even tried to set the
TabPage.Text in the Form_Load event but of no avail. Plz help.

2) How can I draw a frame or groupbox or panel whose
style effect is 'Raised'. In most of the cases when we
set the Frame or Panel borderstyle to 3D, the style
effect is 'Sunken'. But I want it to be 'Raised'. This
is possible if you add the reference- Microsoft Forms
2.0 Object Library, choose Microsoft Forms 2.0 Frame
from 'Choose Toolbox Items' and set its SpecialEffect
property to Raised. But that is a COM component and I
want it to be done through core .Net framework
components. How is it possible.
