I am working on a program that has about 20 checkboxes on it.
What I want to be able to do is to check the checkboxes and then hit an apply button then at that point whatever is checked/ or if something is unchecked the code for that item is run and those changes are applied. If the box is checked it disables the service if it is unchecked it enables the service.
the code I have so far is this for each service I want turned off i have placed under a button name Apply. Each service is a different registry entry and service name, some are just registry key changes...
the code seemed to work at first but that is when I only had one checkbox under the button.
I know I have done something wrong with the program logic here Im just not sure how to fix it as I've only been using VB.net for 2 weeks now... I can't find any reference on the internet to having multiple checkboxes with an apply type button. Just like in a normal windows application where the apply button is used to apply the changes on the form.
Please Help
Thanks In Advance
