I readed this article http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/ProgressStatus.asp
[^] and I liked it very much. I implemented it into one mine simple project.
Now I was wandering hot to delete this progressbar from a statusbar and put a text on its place.
This questo may seem stupid but i'm just starting with .Net (old VB6)
Thanks

Hi,
Can somebody help me on this matter? I want to create a Calendar System like those of the Ms Outlook features but its hard for me to start from scratch. Any third party controls that you can suggest?
A Borland C++ app can incorporate such feature as this using third party. I'm not familiar with C++ either to create the application.
TIA.

Would it be too much to just use the Outlook objects?
|
|

Go to componentgo.com. There you will find Calendar controls for sale. For around $200, you can get daily, weekly, monthly and resource controls along with the source code which is written in C#.

Since there a few differeny ways of making a class serializable, you'll have to show us your serializable class code in order for us to tell you anything useful.

Is there any way to make it so if you were to launch vb while in powerpoint your userform would run right away, rather than you having to make it run yourself?
|
|
|
|
|
I don't exactly understand what you want to do.
What do you mean by "while in powerpoint"? Are you running a powerpoint presentation or are you creating the presentation?
What is "launch vb"? You mean launch Visual Studio which will automatically bring up a certain form from a project? What do you want to do with it?
Or do you mean that you want to run the program you have created in VB from powerpoint?

I am new with Card Reader applications, I attached a card reader with my pc, it allows me to catch the stripe info to a textbox on the form. But I need it to capture in a string, so I can play with it and put proper information in proper fields. Can anyone help ?
|
|
|
|
|
If it's in a textbox on your form, you've already got the string. Does the this card reader come with a library or control? How are you getting the data from the card?

I didn't install anything, while installing the hardware. XP itself updated the registry. Yeah, when I use the card reader, it populate the text box. But I want to do without text box.. Any suggestions?

You still haven't answered my question. What TextBox? Where did it come from? Did you put a TextBox control on the form? Is there a component that you are using to get data from the card reader? How did you get a TextBox control on the form that is displaying this data?

As a test, I just created new project and add new form to it... .And add normal text box control to the form from tools. Its just a normal text box, no back end programming is assigned to it.
|
|
|
|
|
You didn't finish that thought. Let me guess...
The input focus was on the TextBox and you ran a card through the scanner. The data appeared in the TextBox. Am I right so far??

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY IT WAS CONNECTED TO THE MACHINE THROUGH THE KEYBOARD! 
Unfortunately, that's the only way your going to get it into a string. You'll have to use a TextBox, then grab the string out of the TextBox's .Text property, which returns a string.
If you don't want to use a TextBox, you COULD put together a some kind of string builder code using the keyboard events of the form, but you're card reader has to generate some kind of preamble, and possibly postamble, that your handler code can recognize so it knows the keystrokes that are coming down next are parts of the card data and not someone just typing in other parts of your form.
You might want to check into a card reader that connects to the serial port instead...

Thanks! but there isn't any keyboard event for form object. Is there anything I should do? Im using vb.net
|
|
|
|
|
Really? Then why am I looking at Form.KeyDown, Form.KeyPress, Form.KeyUp?
Set the forms KeyPreview property to True. Then, you'll have to come up with code, in the forms KeyDown event, to remember keystrokes until it sees card reader preamble, whatever that may be. For there on, it has to remember all the keystrokes until a set number of characters are read or a card reader postamble is detected.

You should have some sort of drivers for it, maybe an install located online? … Once you find some drivers, I would recommend using the Monroe OPOS Common Controls with the .Net wrapper for interfacing with it. They are pretty much the standard for windows Point of Sale applications.

Is it possible to have a double click event in a combo box that works.
I am king cobra
|
|

What do you mean by "that works"? Theres no intuitive reason to expose a double-click event on a ComboBox. You can't double-click one of the list items because a single click will select the item and display it's text in the TextBox portion. Double-clicking in the TextBox portion should select the text of the word you double-clicked,if editing is enabled.
What do you want this double-click to do and when?

OK say the combo box is empty and you want to add a new item in the list of the combo box so you double click the box this opens a seperate form that allows you to add new item to the list which when this is done then comes back to the form is not only in the list but is the one the combo box is set to ...

Well, the ComboBox doesn't really support a DoubleClick event. Why not just put an "Add" button somewhere around the ComboBox?
