I have developed my program, with a background bitmap.
However, after the form has loaded for about 10secs, there is another image which is placed in the background on top of the background, kind of a quater of the size.
The compiler shows no error messages, and it happens on multiple computers. The program is not complex really and there is no code to affect the background, just a label, and 2 buttons on the page.
Please help, whats up with it

You'll need to post code before we can tell you

code for what, its just set as a form, with the BackgroundImage being set as an 800x600 bmp image.
Another question while im at it, im running the program which has normally worked fine, but now im getting an error message stating:
Unable to copy file "obj\Debug\TypingTuition.exe" to "bin\debug\TypingTuition.exe". The process cannot access the file "bin\Debug\TypingTuition.exe" because it is being used by another process
Any ideas, i am not using the file, closed down vb and started up...etc!
Aaaah, its all going wrong...

The program must be running, to get that error. Check in task manager.
I don't see how another image can just 'appear'.

It's the same image, but drawn in non stretched mode. Like Dave said, it can't just do that, some code must be causing it. Create a test app, set the background, and see what happens. Add your code in until it breaks.

There's got to tbe something in your code doing this. Images don't just change on their own.
Is this image the BackgroundImage of your Form?? Do you have any other controls on the form using an Image??

Its just a standard form, there is no code behind it. The only code is based on the buttons, e.g.
Public Class frmWelcome
Private Sub btnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnStart.Click
frmIntro.Show()
Me.Hide()
End Sub
Private Sub btnExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExit.Click
MsgBox("Bye", MsgBoxStyle.Information)
End Sub
End Class
The BackgroundImageLayout is set to non, and the image should not be smaller as its a 800x600 jpg file.

In the image that you posted the link to, the image changes, you said, after 10 seconds of sitting there?? What happens in your application in those 10 seconds.
Like Christian said, the first thing I'd do is to create a test application, do the EXACT same thing you did to create this form, don't fill in any code, and run it. See what happens.

Will do. In the 10secs, i press nothing, the compiler does nothing, the hard drive does nothing, its wierd as hell.
Thanks for all your feedback, i will try and see where the error occurs by doing another prog.

Not trying to but in but what about mutiple frames in the image, .Net supports that. Did you try a different image?
|
|
|
|
|
Does JPG support multiple frames?

not sure it does externally (On Disk) but I think .NET does support internally "FRAMES" for any image.

Created a new prog and still happens.
Interesting update, i have tried the prog on my desktop and that works fine, could it be something do with my res:
my laptop is 1280x800- error occurs
my desktop is 1280x1024- nowt wrong!
So, its either a driver issue or a res issue, anyone head of anything else like this?
FYI, my laptop runs on a 15.4" widescreen dell, radeon 1150 integrated graphics,
Desktop runs a 19" nvidia 7300gs pci-e

I would like to dynamically control foreground and background color at the cell level within a DataGrid control on a Windows Form. Can someone either point me to an article on the topic or provide some code that would do this? Thanks.

I am building a program using VB .NET 2003 that needs to find a specific window and then set focus to it.
I am not sure whether to use the findwindow or getwindow function and then how do I set focus to it after it is found?

No, it won't. You have also specified the MustInherit, which demands the developer instantiate a derived (inherited) class only. It will not permit you to instantiate this class.

Yes sorry. I had another error that permitted me to create the object. After correcting it the compiler has prompted with the error that I couldn't create the object as it was mustinherit declared.
Thanks,

Hi! I have seen some side-tab-bars, but I didn't find any beautiful. Do you know a place where there is side-tab-bars like the one in MSN, or the one in the "My Project" in Visual Studio 2005?

Those tab controls are either custom built, or they have a custom design (possibly done with Style Sheets). I couldn't find any articles on how to build ones similar, but it shouldn't be hard.
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before.
Neo: That's why it's going to work.

Well, for me (a newbie) it really is. I would like to find just an activex control, a article or something!!

Hi!
I would like to know, how to make a layout in VB.NET, which floats (i dont know if it's the right word for the NO BORDER style or splash style), and then make it moveable and size-able. Just like the msn-window, or the winamp window.
Is that possible? Do you have a tutorial or an article of how to make it, or a sourcecode?
Greetings .. Winmedia!
