Try something similar to this: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.control.setstyle(vs.80).aspx In any case, I guess you would have to create a control inheriting from PictureBox, and set it's ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer to True. After that, just use it as you would a...

Recurse through the directories, and save the entire tree to an XML file.. for example, you could have something like: <Node Name="MyNode" FullPath="Node1\Node2\MyNode" Selected="True" Expanded="False" />and so on, for each node in your treeview. Add any properties you need, and rebuild the...

well.. isn't multithreading a solution? Start a new background thread, and do your calculations there, I guess... Anyway, isn't there a way to post your code, so that I could have a better guess as to what exactly is the problem?

That depends on what you want to do for starters. Learn Windows Forms, it's easier (at least that's what i've done).

Not at all. In fact, there are features of VB that VB.Net doesn't have, and viceversa. So, just learn VB.Net, it makes the job easier.. As for tutorials, just see the MSDN documentation, you should be able to make something of it.

http://download.microsoft.com/download/D/9/C/D9C35F20-A749-4E25-A306-DE20B93AB8C0/VB.iso from here, you can download an ISO image, so that you can keep it on a CD, and even install it on computers without an Internet Connection. BTW, the ISO has 400 MB, but it has the advantage that you don't...

I don't know if this is the proper place to post this, but... :p : I have recently begun a VB.Net application project... it goes about a disk scanning and indexing application, something like WhereIsIt. First of all, i can't think about a name for it (all the good ones are taken)...

I don't know if this is the proper place to post this, but... First, I would like to know how to create a DLL which contains a specified image as a resource. Until now, I have used .bmp's and .png's, specifying a path to them. Which takes us to my second problem: how can i retrieve a graphics...

well, I guess I passed onto .Net 2.0 anyway, so i'm just going to use the new tabcontrol. Anyway, if you have any suggestions...

Hi. My problem is, if I use a TabControl with TabPages, and use a manifest to apply the XP Style to the entire application, only the TabControl is rendered properly. The TabPage is shown simply as a rectangle filled with his backcolor. How can I get the TabPage to display just like in, let's...

Why don't you try seeing this one: http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/popup.asp It goes about displaying any control(placed on a separate form) in popup mode. But it also uses CS_DROPSHADOW, and the animations seemed to work pretty well... PS: If it works, I won't tell anyone I'm smarter than you :D

what do u mean by HTML Format? Please explain. Do you mean the <alt> tag?

If we're talking about animation, I have one question. I once saw a small app which, when closed, broke into 4 pieces, and each piece "flew" towards a corner of the desktop. Any ideas on that pls?

vis781, I don't think a loop would be the solution. I mean, what if i open a new window while running my app? Wouldn't I have to run the entire loop again? Anyway, u know the help in MSOffice; it resizes the main program window accordingly. Would that be what howester77 wants, 'cause I don't...

just see the acad help. i know from experience that there is also some help for the vb api (or search the damn acad namespace that came with your program)=))

Do u know C++ and how to use it in Windows Programming? It would take finding the hWnd for each and every window that would interfere, and to be honest, i only know how to do that with Spy++. P.S. the equivalent for hWnd is Form.Handle.ToInt32

Cool, ye old WinAPI stuff. TNX man.

If u still want to skin your app, maybe u should try downloading Windows Media SDK from Microsoft's website. It only helps u skin Windows Media Player, but u should get the idea of how things are done. As for the code, try MSDN. U wouldn't guess what kind of stupid-named articles with good stuff...

RPG Maker? Wow! But why don't u use DX technology? It's way easier... Anyway, i don't think u should use the PictureBox. Try with the Panel Control. PictureBoxes don't support transparency, as far as i can remember.

no it isn't. Otherwise, i wouldn't have known about the source. one idea, try to search a linux source if u don't find the link to zip... i'll search it myself
