    - How do I... ? My thought here is you trying to have a listbox which will show you various details when one of the items is selected. For this I have created a simple class and use it to populate a listbox and when an item is selected in ther listbox it will display the corresponding details in other controls (in this case labels). This can form the basis of this and you can add other properties or adjust the controls your using. Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load '//Initialize values - I have no idea real values Me.ListBox1.Items.Clear() Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(New StarGroup("0", "60", "Blue", "1")) Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(New StarGroup("A", "70", "Reg", "2")) Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(New StarGroup("B", "80", "green", "3")) Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(New StarGroup("C", "90", "White", "4")) End Sub Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged '//Display Selected Item Dim x As StarGroup If Me.ListBox1.SelectedItem IsNot Nothing Then x = Me.ListBox1.SelectedItem Label1.Text = x._Name Label2.Text = x._Starcolor Label3.Text = x._Temperature Label4.Text = x._Mass Else Label1.Text = "" Label2.Text = "" Label3.Text = "" Label4.Text = "" End If End Sub End Class Class StarGroup Public _Name As String Public _Temperature As String Public _Starcolor As String Public _Mass As String Sub New(ByVal Name As String, ByVal Temperature As String, ByVal Starcolor As String, ByVal Mass As String) _Name = name _Temperature = Temperature _Starcolor = Starcolor _Mass = Mass End Sub '//This is what will display in the listbox Public Overrides Function ToString() As String Return _Name End Function End Class Tag: Visual Basic Language System.Diagnostics.Process.Start ???

    - DefaultClientScript property does not exist The book I'm using says, "view the properties explorer and select DOCUMENT from the combo box. Find the defaultClientScript property and set it to VBScript." I do not have any such property in the Properties Window (there is no explorer). My computer says I have Visual Studio 2005.

    - listbox items All the items in the listbox would have the same color - you cant set the colors of each item individually. But you need an event to trigger the color change. In this example I simply have two buttons - one adds items to the combobox and one removes items. Depending upon whether the number of items is odd or even will change the color of the items in the list between red and blue. (all Items would change) Public Class Form1 Private Sub BtnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnAdd.Click Me.ListBox1.Items.Add("Add an Item" & ListBox1.Items.Count.ToString) If Me.ListBox1.Items.Count Mod 2 Then Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue Else Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Red End If End Sub Private Sub BtnDelete_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnDelete.Click If Me.ListBox1.Items.Count > 1 Then Me.ListBox1.Items.Removeat(0) '//Remove first items if there are items End If If Me.ListBox1.Items.Count Mod 2 Then Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue Else Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Red End If End Sub End Class Of course as there is common code this can be placed in a method which can be called from both button click events Public Class Form1 Private Sub BtnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnAdd.Click Me.ListBox1.Items.Add("Add an Item" & ListBox1.Items.Count.ToString) SetColor(Me.Listbox1) End Sub Private Sub BtnDelete_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnDelete.Click If Me.ListBox1.Items.Count > 1 Then Me.ListBox1.Items.Removeat(0) '//Remove first items if there are items End If SetColor(Me.Listbox1) End Sub Sub SetColor(ByVal x As ListboxBox) If x.Items.Count Mod 2 Then x.ForeColor = Color.Blue Else x.ForeColor = Color.Red End If End Sub End Class If your trying to change the color depend upon an item selected in the listbox then simply code something in one of the listbox events Example: You can add a few items into the listbox and if you select one of the items which contains a character 2 it will turn blue, otherwise it will turn red when an item is selected. Nothing spectacular but simply changing the forecolor on the listbox control Public Class Form1 Private Sub BtnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnAdd.Click Me.ListBox1.Items.Add("Add an Item" & ListBox1.Items.Count.ToString) End Sub Private Sub BtnDelete_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnDelete.Click If Me.ListBox1.Items.Count > 1 Then Me.ListBox1.Items.Removeat(0) '//Remove first items if there are items End If End Sub Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged If Me.ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString.Contains("2") Then Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue Else Me.ListBox1.ForeColor = Color.Red End If End Sub End Class Tag: Visual Basic Language System.Diagnostics.Process.Start ???

So at this point I have done a work around, but this leaves me with a control that isnt that generic or user friendly, my main intention was to design a control that everyone in the team could use.

Execution is faster because there is no call to a procedure to accomplish the conversion. Each function coerces an expression to a specific data type.

Any String expression or numeric expression. Return Types The function name determines the return type, as shown in the following table: Function name Return type Range for expression argument CBool Boolean Any valid String or numeric expression. CByte Byte 0 through 255; fractions are rounded. CChar Char Any valid String expression; value can be 0 through 65535. CDate Date Any valid representation of a date and time. CDbl Double -1.79769313486231E+308 through -4.94065645841247E-324 for negative values; 4.94065645841247E-324 through 1.79769313486231E+308 for positive values. CDec Decimal +/-79,228,162,514,264,337,593,543,950,335 for zero-scaled numbers, that is, numbers with no decimal places. For numbers with 28 decimal places, the range is +/-7.9228162514264337593543950335. The smallest possible non-zero number is 0.0000000000000000000000000001.

CObj Object Any valid expression. CShort Short -32,768 through 32,767; fractions are rounded. CSng Single -3.402823E+38 through -1.401298E-45 for negative values; 1.401298E-45 through 3.402823E+38 for positive values. CStr String Returns for CStr depend on the expression argument. See Returns for CStr . Remarks If the expression passed to the function is outside the range of the data type to which it is being converted, an error occurs. In general, you can use the data type conversion functions to force the result of some operation to a particular data type rather than the default data type. For example, use CDec to force decimal arithmetic in cases where single-precision, double-precision, or integer arithmetic normally would occur. When the fractional part is exactly 0.5, CInt and CLng always round it to the nearest even number. For example, 0.5 rounds to 0 and 1.5 rounds to 2. CInt and CLng differ from the Fix and Int functions, which truncate, rather than round, the fractional part of a number. Also, Fix and Int always return a value of the same type as is passed in. Use the IsDate function to determine if a value can be converted to a date and time. CDate recognizes date literals and time literals as well as numbers that fall within the range of acceptable dates. CDate recognizes date formats according to the locale setting of your system. You must provide the day, month, and year in the correct order for your locale, or the date may not be interpreted correctly. A long date format is not recognized if it contains a day-of-the-week string, such as "Wednesday". The Date data type always contains both date and time information. For purposes of type conversion, Visual Basic .NET considers 1/1/1 (January 1 of the year 1) to be a neutral value for the date, and 00:00:00 (midnight) to be a neutral value for the time. If you convert a Date value to a string, CStr does not include neutral values in the resulting string. For example, if you convert #January 1, 0001 9:30:00# to a string, the result is "9:30:00 AM"; the date information is suppressed. However, the date information is still present in the original Date value and can be recovered with functions such as DatePart . The CType function takes a second argument, typename , and coerces expression to typename , where typename can be any data type, structure, class, or interface. For more information, see CType Function . CBool Example This example uses the CBool function to convert expressions to Boolean values. If an expression evaluates to a nonzero value, CBool returns True ; otherwise, it returns False . Dim A, B, C As Integer Dim Check As Boolean A = 5 B = 5 Check = CBool( A = B ) ' Check is set to True. ' ... C = 0 Check = CBool( C ) ' Check is set to False. CByte Example This example uses the CByte function to convert an expression to a Byte . Dim MyDouble As Double Dim MyByte As Byte MyDouble = 125.5678 MyByte = CByte( MyDouble ) ' MyByte is set to 126. CChar Example This example uses the CChar function to convert a the first character of a String expression to a Char type. Dim MyString As String Dim MyChar As Char MyString = "BCD" ' CChar converts only first character of string. MyChar = CChar( MyString ) ' MyChar is set to "B". The input argument to CChar must be of data type String . You cannot use CChar to convert a number to a character, because CChar cannot accept a numeric data type. This example obtains a number representing a code point (character code) and converts it to the corresponding character. It uses InputBox to obtain the string of digits, CInt to convert the string to type Integer , and ChrW to convert the number to type Char . Dim MyDigits As String ' Input string of digits to be converted. Dim CodePoint As Integer ' Number to be represented as a character. Dim MyChar As Char MyDigits = InputBox("Enter code point of character:") CodePoint = CInt(MyDigits) ' Convert entire string to Integer. MyChar = ChrW(CodePoint) ' MyChar is set to Char value of code point. CDate Example This example uses the CDate function to convert strings to Date values. In general, hard-coding dates and times as strings (as shown in this example) is not recommended. Use date literals and time literals, such as #Feb 12, 1969# and #4:45:23 PM#, instead. Dim MyDateString, MyTimeString As String Dim MyDate, MyTime As Date MyDateString = "February 12, 1969" MyTimeString = "4:35:47 PM" ' ... MyDate = CDate( MyDateString ) ' Convert to Date data type. MyTime = CDate( MyTimeString ) ' Convert to Date data type. CDbl Example This example uses the CDbl function to convert an expression to Double . Dim MyDec As Decimal Dim MyDouble As Double MyDec = 234.456784D ' Literal type character D makes MyDec a Decimal. MyDouble = CDbl( MyDec * 8.2D * 0.01D ) ' Convert result to a Double. CDec Example This example uses the CDec function to convert a numeric value to Decimal . Dim MyDouble As Double Dim MyDecimal As Decimal MyDouble = 10000000.0587 MyDecimal = CDec( MyDouble ) ' Convert to Decimal. CInt Example This example uses the CInt function to convert a value to Integer . Dim MyDouble As Double Dim MyInt As Integer MyDouble = 2345.5678 MyInt = CInt( MyDouble ) ' MyInt is set to 2346. CLng Example This example uses the CLng function to convert values to Long . Dim MyDbl1, MyDbl2 As Double Dim MyLong1, MyLong2 As Long MyDbl1 = 25427.45 MyDbl2 = 25427.55 MyLong1 = CLng( MyDbl1 ) ' MyLong1 contains 25427. MyLong2 = CLng( MyDbl2 ) ' MyLong2 contains 25428. CObj Example This example uses the CObj function to convert a numeric value to Object . The Object variable itself contains only a four-byte pointer, which points to the Double value assigned to it. Dim MyDouble As Double Dim MyObject As Object MyDouble = 2.7182818284 MyObject = CObj( MyDouble ) ' Double value is pointed to by MyObject. CShort Example This example uses the CShort function to convert a numeric value to Short . Dim MyByte as Byte Dim MyShort as Short MyByte = 100 MyShort = CShort( MyByte ) ' Convert to Short. CSng Example This example uses the CSng function to convert values to Single . Dim MyDouble1, MyDouble2 As Double Dim MySingle1, MySingle2 As Single MyDouble1 = 75.3421105 MyDouble2 = 75.3421567 MySingle1 = CSng( MyDouble1 ) ' MySingle1 is set to 75.34211. MySingle2 = CSng( MyDouble2 ) ' MySingle2 is set to 75.34216. CStr Example This example uses the CStr function to convert a numeric value to String . Dim MyDouble As Double Dim MyString As String MyDouble = 437.324 MyString = CStr( MyDouble ) ' MyString is set to "437.324". This example uses the CStr function to convert Date values to String values. Dim MyDate As Date Dim MyString As String ' ... MyDate = #February 12, 1969 00:00:00# ' INVALID format. ' Date literals must be in the format #m/d/yyyy# or they are invalid. ' ... MyDate = #2/12/69 00:00:00# ' Time is midnight. ' The neutral time value of 00:00:00 is suppressed in the conversion. MyString = CStr( MyDate ) ' MyString is set to "2/12/1969". ' ... MyDate = #2/12/69 00:00:01# ' Time is one second past midnight. ' The time component becomes part of the converted value. MyString = CStr( MyDate ) ' MyString is set to "2/12/1969 12:00:01 AM". CStr always renders a Date value in the standard short format for the current locale, for example, "6/15/2003 4:35:47 PM".

    - How to customize the ToString of enum? Here is a way that you can accomplish the functionality that you are wanting. I hope that this helps. I have included code here so that this will run as a console project, all you really need is the class code. I have included functionality so that the defalut LoggingType is "I". To use the class declare an object as Type LogTypes and Set the Type Property to the value that you want. The LogType Enum is provided to allow for the Enumeration funtionality that you desiere. The Two Public Shared ReadOnly Variables are declared as such so that they are only accesible from the class level. For instance you can't do this: Code Snippet Dim LogType as New LogTypes Debug.Print(LogType.I.ToString) You can however do this Code Snippet Debug.Print(LogTypes.I.ToString) I hope that this helps. Code Snippet Module Module1 Sub Main() Dim LogType As New LogTypes Console.WriteLine(LogType.I.ToString()) Console.WriteLine(LogType.D.ToString()) Console.Read() End Sub End Module Public Class LogTypes Public ReadOnly I As String = "Information Only" Public ReadOnly D As String = "Data Only" Public Enum LoggingType I 'Information only D 'Data only End Enum Private mLogType As LoggingType Public Property Type() As LoggingType Get Return mLogType End Get Set ( ByVal value As LoggingType) mLogType = value End Set End Property Public Sub New () Type = LoggingType.I End Sub End Class Tag: Visual Basic Language System.Diagnostics.Process.Start ???

    - Problem in Save detail data to database Hi, From your talking, I know you bind DateTimePicker control to datatable. Datatable contains null value. I do not think it is possible to create a nullable datetime picker, since the DateTime class does not accept null as a value. But you can use customized control to handle this problem. Here is a customized control NullableDateTimePicker. It is inherited from the DateTimerPicker control to get all the nice things that it contains. You can bind this control to a datatable which has nullable DateTime values. It is C# code. Hope this can help you.You can use it in your project. For more information, visit : http://www.codeguru.com/dbfiles/get_file/NullableDateTimePicker_src.zip id=9645&lbl=NULLABLEDATETIMEPICKER_SRC_ZIP&ds=20050425 At last, I recommend you use datagridview control to edit data. Then you save data change to database. Please clarify your SQL server version. You confuse me. I only know future version of Microsoft Sql server is 2008.

I am creating the so many objects and it will allocate so much of memory. I want to recollect all the memory at any time i want. If I call GC.Collect Method then it will mark all the unused memory for later memory collection only. But I want to make the memory free at any time without using GC.Collect method. Please anyone answer my question Tag: Visual Basic Language System.Diagnostics.Process.Start ??? Visual Basic

    - Set Document Name? Unfortunately there is no easy way to do this, and there was no way to do it in VB 6 either. The Printer object wraps the PrintDocument component, and we didn't expose the DocumentName property of the underlying PrintDocument - so it uses the defaut value "document". You could use the PrintDocument directly and set the DocumentName, but then you would have to rewrite all of your printing code. - Steve Hoag Tag: Visual Basic Language System.Diagnostics.Process.Start ???

when you call process.start on a text file, its the same thing as finding that textfile on your hard drive and double clicking it.

When you double click a .txt file and it opens in notepad, and you double click another .txt file, it opens in a new instance, not the same one.

This is how notepad works.

You could possibly either do something with sendkeys, or possibly you could use windows APIs to make notepad think it had a .txt file drag/dropped on it, which would make it open the text file in the same instance.

Each time you start a process to open a document, keep a reference to that process. When you are ready to open another document, kill the original process (not usually recommended, but killing notepad won't hurt anything) and then start the new process. Its not exactly what you want, but I'm not sure what you want can reasonably be done. This way at least you won't have a lot of notepad windows floating around.

You should also keep in mind if you truly want to use notepad, then you should be launching notepad.exe and passing the filename as a commandline param.

Otherwise you will be launching whatever their default text file editor is.

For example I use a great OSS app called notepad++ for my text editor, I have associated it with .txt files on my system.

Since it has tabs like IE7 or Firefox, it is a single instance application, which means multiple instances can't be opened at the same time.

What I am getting at is, if you were to run process.start("textfilehere") on my system, and I already had a different textfile open in notepad++ that I was working on, it would open the textfile from your process.start() in the same instance but a new tab, and you killing the notepad++ process would make me lose my initial text document as well, which would make me pretty mad if a program did that to me.
