I believe you'd need to click on the control for the move events to fire on that control. The enter event may work better ? Have you set breakpoints to see when the events are fired ?

Clicking on the control for the move events doesn't fire too.
The enter event doens't work too
I set breakpoints and the events fired.
What is wrong?

The breakpoint gets hit ? B/c it looks to me like you are saying you have a picturebox, not an instance of your derived class, on your form.

I do not see the relationship between the PictureBox on your form and your class.

As Christian States you need to add the chart onto your form as an instance. The code below will show you what i mean;

Code For the Form;

Public Class Form1

    Private WithEvents myChart As New Chart

    Public Sub New()

        ' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
        Me.Controls.Add(myChart)

        myChart.Top = 50
        myChart.Left = 50
        myChart.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle
        myChart.BackColor = Color.Aqua
        myChart.Width = 300
        myChart.Height = 300

    End Sub

    Private Sub myChart_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles myChart.MouseMove
        Debug.WriteLine("The Chart Mouse Is Moving")
    End Sub
End Class

Code for your Class;

Public Class Chart
    Inherits PictureBox

    Private Sub Chart_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseMove
        Debug.WriteLine("Mouse Is Moving")

    End Sub
End Class

Now if you run the code and look at the immediate window, you will see 2 debug messages, 1 showingthe mouse move event firing on the form, and 1 for the mouse move event being handled inside your class. Depending on what you are trying to achieve, you can handle either or both of these events as and where you need them.

Guy, I have no idea how to use VB6.0 to open command prompt and type this string in the command prompt
Bin2text test.jpg test.text 200 vbCrLf

After that i want to drag this test.text entire character into a sting and display out in text box_change()

Dave Kreskowiak25-Oct-09 8:11

You can execute the command using the Shell statement. After that, you just open the file for reading and read the entire contents of the file into a String variable. The rest should be very easy.

controlling size and position of zoom player

Why don't you write a small program to compare the two methods yourself? Run each method through about 1,000,000 iterations and time how long it takes to get through them. Oh, and I also suspect that what kind of objects your are comparing would also affect the results, like comparing two integers will be different from comparing two strings.

Determine mail is simple mail or read receipt

Only if that script is part of the web page the play is on and it has access to the properties of the player AND the player supports such functionality.

You can't really. There is no difference between an email that someone writes and a read receipt. There is no special property to look at. You have to examine the contents of the email for certain phrases and you MAY get the information you need.

Though, you may also never get a read receipt either. I never allow them to be sent from my machines.

Lots of people, but you need to post such questions to the Jobs forum. Nobody is going to do this without being paid for it.

The only thing that can view it is a richtextbox. Handle events like keypress in a rich text box and swallow them, to make a read only rich text box.

Form Resize [modified][Solved]

I have a form with a text box in a toolstrip. I would like to make the width of the textbox relative to the form size when the form is resized. The following code works fine except when you click the restore button from a maximized state.

Private Sub frmMain_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize
        ToolStripTextBox1.Width = Me.Width - 325
    End Sub

Is there a way to get the restore button to work properly?

Thanks

Got this From another forum

Private Sub Form1_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize
        ToolStripTextBox1.TextBox.Width = Me.Width - 325
        ToolStripTextBox1.Overflow = ToolStripItemOverflow.Never
    End Sub

You don't need this code. Click on the TextBox in the form designer and use the Anchor property appropriately to anchor the textbox to the sides of the form as desired.

The anchor property is not available for a toolstrip textbox.

Dave Kreskowiak24-Oct-09 17:19

I'm mostly asleep right now, so...

How about overriding the OnPaint method of the ToolStrip and setting the width of the TextBox in there.

Shouldn't you set the TextBox Width relative to the ToolStrip Width?
