Well, it's possible, but a bit of a pain to handle, depending on what you're doing with them.
If all you're doing is putting a bunch of controls on the form and trying to move them around because the form is too small to show them, you're really wasting your time. All you need to do is drop a Panel control on the form, dock it so it takes up the entire surface of the form, set its AutoScroll property to True, then put all your controls on the panel. It takes care of moving everything around for you!

VB6?? Yikes...
The only other usable container control, IIRC, is the PictureBox. There is no Panel control like there is in .NET.
If you have that many controls on the form, you REALLY need to rethink your UI. Break down what each part of this form does into smaller parts and dedicate them to their own forms.
I direct you to the Official Guidelines for User Interface Developers and Designers[^]. This describes the concepts behind a good user experience.

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to add (with a button) rows into tables (html table, asp table or gridView) .
I've tried : (asp:Table)
Private Sub AddRow()
Dim count As Integer = procTable.Rows.Count //never increment !!!
Dim myRow As New TableRow
Dim myCell As New TableCell
myCell.Text = "myCell"
myRow.Cells.Add(myCell)
'this is the asp:Table
procTable.Rows.AddAt(count, myRow)
End Sub
Had anyone an idea???
Thanks a lot

Hi
Has anyone worked with DVT cameras? I want read and write camera registers. With activeX I can control the camera fine but working with camera registers(string,byte,int,...) acticeX is not capable (I think so). I use VB.Net 2003 standard version.

I am using a function to keep an error log in case of run-time errors. When the program breaks, ex.stacktrack and ex.innerexception, containing useful technical information are not written to the log file.
Any ideas?
Jon

Code:
Friend Sub DisplayError(ByVal Caption As String, ByVal ErrorMessage As String, _
ByVal LogError As Boolean, Optional ByVal InnerException As String = " ", _
Optional ByVal StackTrace As String = " ")
' Displays an error message and logs the error
If Caption = "" Then
MessageBox.Show(ErrorMessage, Caption, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
Else
MessageBox.Show(ErrorMessage, Caption, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End If
If LogError = True Then
'Log the error message in a text file
Dim ErrorLog As New StreamWriter(strAppPath & "\" & "Error.log", True)
Const strDelimiter As String = ","
Try
ErrorLog.Write(Now.ToString)
ErrorLog.WriteLine(strDelimiter & Caption & _
strDelimiter & ErrorMessage & _
strDelimiter & InnerException)
Finally
ErrorLog.Close()
End Try
End If
End Sub

Do you send any inner exception string to the method?
You have no code that writes the stack trace to the file.

Hi to everyone,
I've written a small application which reside in the tray area, with a context menu and no form.
I'm trying to display a user drawn menu, the same way I already did so many times in standard Windows application, by using the DrawMenu & MeasureItem couple (and of course the UserDraw property set to True); but I'm getting no output, just a blank line, even the text ("View logs", for instance) disappear, though if I click on the item I get the expected behaviour (the log window appears).
By the way, another difference with the standard Windows app, is that I'm defining the menu items in the sub Main (since I have no form)
Can someone please help me.
Thanks in advance
