I'm not 100% on this, but I'm pretty sure you can do this through WMI.

Try setting your Property DataType as an Enum. For example :-
Enum DataTypes<br />
Date=1<br />
Text=2<br />
Number=3<br />
End Enum<br />
<br />
Property DataType As DataTypes<br />
Get<br />
'Your code here<br />
End Get<br />
Set(ByVal Value As DataTypes)<br />
'Your code here<br />
End Set

Here it's not taking Date as a type of enum . Rising error 'at the place of Date
" Statement cannot appear within a enum body " .
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry, the example should have read :-
Enum DataTypes<br />
[Date]=1 '<--- Note the square brackets<br />
Text=2<br />
Number=3<br />
End Enum<br />
<br />
Property DataType As DataTypes<br />
Get<br />
'Your code here<br />
End Get<br />
Set(ByVal Value As DataTypes)<br />
'Your code here<br />
End Set

CustomDate.CustomFormat = "d-MMM-yyyy"<br />
CustomDate.ShowUpDown = True<br />
CustomDate.Show()<br />
Return MyBase.EditValue(context, provider, value)<br />
End Function<br />
Public Overrides Function GetEditStyle(ByVal context As System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext) As System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditorEditStyle<br />

Does any body know how to change to height of the textbox?
Do we have to use any API's to do that?
Any idea or link??
|
|
|
|
|
Hello,
There is no option to change the height of TextBox in .Net. But,
there are other options using which you can change the height.
1. You can set the 'MultiLine' property to True. However, this will
cause the text to wrap into multiple lines.
2. Another option is to increase the font of the Textbox. This will
automatically set the height of the Textbox.
I hope this answers your query.

Hello every one
I am having a VB 2005 application and using “DrawString” to print a bill.
I want is to print the amount in floating point format, with decimal point like “56.00” instead of “56”
I am using floating points variables but when I am changing it into string, to sent it for printing “.00” will is lost
Also I wanted the numeric columns to be right aligned which I am not able to do
Can any one give me a idea how to do it..
Regards
Nishkarsh

Convert the value to a string format in the DrawString Method:
DrawString(Format(value,"0.00"),...)
This will ensure the format you want.

|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for ur help. It is working.
Any idea how to align the text to right?
The numbers I am printing for amount should be right aligned.
In case of DrawString i can just tell the starting, i.e. only the left most point. How do I do that?
|
|
|
|
|
To align the text you have to set up a StringFormat object:
Dim sf As New StringFormat<br />
sf.Alignment = StringAlignment.Far<br />
sf.LineAlignment = StringAlignment.Center<br />
<br />
DrawString(Format(value,"0.00"),fnt, Brushes.Black,rectF,sf)
(I cant remember if the LineAlignment and Alignment properties are around the right way but a little trial and error will sort this out.)
Cheers

To format a number as money use: YourDecimalOrFloatOrDoubleOrWhatEver.Tostring("F")
If you mean columns in a datagrid, you should explore the possibilities of the TableStyle.
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

You need to add an event handler for MosueDown to for your control, then test to see which mouse button is pressed. For example:-
Private Sub myControl_MouseDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles myControl.MouseDown<br />
If e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right Then<br />
'Your code here<br />
End If

it is possible,,running Reporting services2005(rdl) from VB aplikasi Without IIS??

Colleagues,
Are there controls for VB6 that have the visual properties of a shape and line controls, and also have better mouse support, so that they can be made more interactive?
I’m writing an application that displays a process diagram. I’d like to add things like ToolTips and to make some elements on the diagram clickable.
I know that I can put a label on a shape and it would provide the mouse support that I need. It would work for square-ish shapes, but it doesn’t work well for circles.

This is more of a VB thing because I am planning to execute it inside of the SQL 2000 DTS package but I am testing it in VB.Net app. It has been a while since I've worked with XML and I got stumbled with a simple one here!!
I just need to read Detail/DT and Detail/Accounts XML in the loop - I don't think my XPath is correct.
Somehow data that I read is not pasted into Excel document. What am I doing wrong. Please help.
Many Thanks!!!

In the end someone here on the forum explained this method to me, that is slightly more clumsy to build at first, but will give you much more control over the output afterwards, is a lot less sensitive to (MS Excel) version problems, and can be easily adapted to work from any programming language:
First create an Excel file (in excel) that looks the way you want it to look. Next save this Excel file as xml. And last open this xml file with .NET Studio.
Finally (or alternatively) you can adapt the following function to your needs (the example is from one of my apps, so there is some stuff in there you may want to take out):
Public Function DatasetToExcel(ByVal ds As DataSet, ByVal ExcelPath As String)<br />
If File.Exists(ExcelPath) = True Then<br />
If MsgBox("Tiedosto on jo olemassa. Haluatko korvata sen?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo) = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then<br />
File.Delete(ExcelPath)<br />
Else<br />
ExcelPath = InputBox("Muuta nimi: ", "Tiedosto olemassa", ExcelPath)<br />
End If<br />
End If<br />
Dim doc As New StreamWriter(ExcelPath) 'use .xls even though its an xml file<br />
Try<br />
Dim startExcelXML As String = ""<br />
startExcelXML &= "<xml version="">"<br />
startExcelXML &= vbNewLine & "<workbook xmlns="" urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet="" hold=" /"> startExcelXML &= vbNewLine & Microsoft.VisualBasic.Chr(10) & "" + " xmlns:o=""urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"""<br />

<br />
