It's not really flicker, it's erroneous drawing of the form on resize. You can see what I mean here:
http://www.cstrader.com/untitled/untitled.htm
Althouh it doesn't look like it on the video, the mouse that is dragging is actually in the corner of of the form
As the form resizes it snsps big, then snaps back to normal size.
The form has only a full-docked splitcontainer on it.
Only happens in win7.

Is there a best way to report this issue to Microsoft? I simply cannot make it stop and it occurs on a form with only one control and no code.
Thank you.

Just for clarity, are you trying to open an existing document, or are you trying to create and open a new document?
If you need to open an existing document, which you have not created yourself earlier on in your application, and the user can save the document anywhere on his computer, the best way is to use an OpenFileDialog.
If you created the document yourself earlier on in your application, just store it to a shorter path to begin with. In that case you could just use xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("log.xls")
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

My program will do everything on its own
it will open the file log.xls from the template folder add data to it and then save the file to the log folder
by just putting the file name and no path it ends up in my documents i want it to be in the same folder as my program i added the folder in the solution exploer
Thanks

The folder where your application is running can be obtained over the Application class, it holds an ExecutablePath[^]-property.
You can use Path.Combine[^] if you want to refer to a subfolder thereof.

Okay, then use Directory.GetCurrentDirectory to get the path of your application.
This will get the path of the application, even if the user would have installed it elsewhere then the default directory.

WRONG! GetCurrentDirectoty cannot be trusted to return the same path as the executable every time! Try launching an OpenFileDialog and navigating around with it, then see what GetCurrentDirectory returns.

You are ofcourse right, I actually didn't think of that until after your reply.

if you create a desktop shortcut, you can choose the initial "current directory"; when you double-click it, the EXE gets launched with the chosen curdir, so it is totally unrelated to the exe path.

Hello to All,
Dim chArray As Char()
ChArray = a_string.ToCharArray
DirectCast((chArray((i - 1) + "`"c)), Char)
DirectCast((chArray((i - 1) - "`"c)), Char) // Error in the line
If you can think then I Can.

Is there a question here?
You say 'Error in the line'. What error?

Does this even compile ? It sure doesn't look to me like it should. As the other bloke said, you've given us next to no info, I'm sure the error is in plain English and means what it says, but if you don't tell us the error, we can't really explain it to you.

Error is Operator '-' is not defined for types 'Char' and 'Char'.
If you can think then I Can.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, well you're trying to do math with characters. That's not exactly a defined operation.
What are you trying to achieve with this code?
|
|
|
|
|
But Sir,
- Operator is working fine for Strings.
If you can think then I Can.

So what?? Just because it works doesn't mean it's a good idea to use it. VB.NET does a lot of implied conversions if a type does normally work. In this example:
Dim x As String = "100"
Dim y As String = "40"
Debug.WriteLine(x - y)
results in 60 being output to the Output pane in Visual Studio. Why? Because both strings were automatically converted to Integers before the subtraction operator was applied.
There is no implied conversion for your '-' character because it doesn't translate to a number.

But sir it not works for Char.
If you can think then I Can.
|
|
|
|
|
But nothing. I already told you you shouldn't be doing this in the first place.
Rework the algorithm to eleminate doing math with characters and strings. You'll have far better and maintainable code.

Thank u sir

Has anyone heard about the new way to migrate VB 6 to the cloud? There was some stuff out there over the past few days.
|
|
|
|
|
What does this actually mean ? I can tell you for sure that VB6 is totally unsupported. Thank goodness for that......

Looks like a tool to convert VB6 to VB.NET. Microsoft either couldn't write one that works, or didn't care enough, but if someone's got a working one, then I expect that may work. It will work by ditching VB6 and creating a .NET app.
