The reason the child form is destroyed is becuase you loss all references to it.
if your working in vb.net you need to create a variable in a different class, holding a reference to your created form, or the reference can be 'Shared' (which i don't reccommend)
if you are working in vb6, you can try do the same as for the .net (but i'm not sure if it would work) or try to create the form in a different parent form.
you can also monitor the form's 'Closing' event(.net) or 'QueryUnload' event(vb6) and then you can cancel the termination of the form and just hide it. in both cases you need to set the 'Cancel' parameter to 'True'.

Inside of the form_close event (or form_closing in VB.NET), you can cancel the unload, and hide the form instead.
Just remember to actually unload the form somewhere else in your code, or you will be sitting with a hidden form in memory.

If the program is still running, then on the form you are on use a button or a file menue option or some kind of event and recal the form you would like to open up. Its just like calling a form for the first time.
if that doesnt make sence feel free to email me at iamydd@bellsouth.net

How do a messenger server/clients updates the online/offline stat. in real time?
If the server has a connection for all the clients, (and there is a lot, 33000+ clients), you would need two or more computers??? I’m I right????
No good.
Server pings all of the clients??? Takes a lot of bandwidth from the internet line, and takes a lot of time.
Also no good.
Any ideas?

I'd have thought that there is a central database, which there needs to be to store IP addresses from login to login, and that each client requests the info for the users they have in their contacts.

But what if the client's internet connection is lost?
The client is stille online via. the database.

Our internet connection at work drops out quite a bit, and I've noticed it takes messenger about a minute to work out that I am no longer online.

So the server should ping all of the clients??? via. the ip address from the database??
Or???
|
|
|
|
|
My guess - the client checks regularly to see if it's still online, and what users on the contact list are still online. If the check is not recieved, the user is offline.

Ok, thanks for the reply.

My guess is that the server gets a connection event when the client drops off that end of the connection.

Witch means the server is connected at all times to the client, in a passive mode?
Eg. ready to receive data.???? Not sending data?

am telling you this for a fact, the messager has an open connection with the host,
you can see it for yourself by using the "netstat -nao" command in the command prompt (run "cmd")
this will show you all active connections on your computer, including the process ID associated with each connection. you can see which process id the messager uses using the Task Manager. Select the 'Processes' tab, and then 'View' -> 'Select Columns' (this option will only show when you're in the 'Processes' tab).
then you'll see that the messanger process has an established connection.
now, how is it done? as one server might not be able to support so many simultanious connections?
If you will take a minute to experiment, you'll see that each time you log-on, the messanger logs on to a different IP, that's the load-balancing machanism, microsoft has many Messanger servers, each serving who knows how many users, and on the servers level, they are responsible for updating eachother.
It sometimes takes a minute until the messanger detects a connection loss because connection loss on tcp connection is not always detectable, so it is only detected after some timeout occurs in your client (there is probably a reflecting timeout at the server side too)
by the way, they probably went for the open connection architecture due to the fact that many users cannot accept incoming transmissions (everyone behind a router, ICS server, proxy, firewall etc.), the only way they can be sure they can send you data (like an incoming message) is an open connection you have initiated
that's about it

I have an access Table with vendor_num and vendor_name fields.
I have an oracle Table which has a vendor_num field and other fields of details.
Initially, my thought was to pull the access table into a dataset and then pull the oracle table into the dataset, form a datarelation between the two, and use GetChildRows to pull the other details from the oracle table I pulled in.
however...
When I tried to do this I got an error b/c not all data in the child table (oracle table) had a parent...
Can someone point me in the right direction into either fixing this train of thought or a new method altogether, please?
Thanks

hi guys! i am creating a report, but the values will be coming from 3 tables. when i call this code: OleAdpReport.fill(DSReport, "Table1"), it gives me an error. I believe this is because I have 3 source tables that are joined. i also cleared the links that bind them during the configuration of the report. what shall i do?

How can load a Image in to a TabControl.
normally we can load the Image through property. It's Ok.
The Image is not covered the whole part of the tabControl.
Tabbutton always gray.
How can put a Image on the top of the tabcontrol.  ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

i'm not sure that i understand your question, and i got a pretty 'Go-Around' solution for the question i *think* you have asked.
you can load and display any image on any object, using BitBlt.
read this article i wrote
http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/Bitblt_wrapper_class.asp[^]
you can load a bitmap and use this class to show it over the tabcontrol.
or you can think about it and probably find a better way to do it

Hi There,
Who can help me with this one.
I need to import data from a Data Interchange file (*.DIF) to a Dataset or Datareader
I was thinking to do that with a deserialization but I can not define the Dif format.
Any Idea how to solve this ?
Here an example how I load data from a binary file to a hashtable
Dim ConfigFile As New FileInfo(GetTypePath())
If ConfigFile.Exists Then
Dim bfConfig As New Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter
Dim fsConfig As New FileStream(Me.GetTypePath(), _
FileMode.Open, _
FileAccess.Read)
Me.oDataStore = CType(bfConfig.Deserialize(fsConfig), Hashtable)
fsConfig.Close()
Return True
End If
I was thinking to replace the Hashtable with System.Windows.Forms.DataFormats.Dif
But that is not working. May be I need todo this with Direct Cast but I do not know how to that
Any help or info is welcome
Thanks

I have a problem with VB.Net 2003, ever since upgrading Windows XP sp 2.
Msgbox now does not show anything in the text or the buttons. The same exe works correctly on a Windows 2003 server, but not on another machine that runs sp 2.
This must be a known problem, what do I do to fix it.
Please help
