Visual Basic :: Help With Mouse Click/custom Command Button??

Custom Form Load On Command Button Click
Hi

I wondering if anyone knows how to do this, basically i want to click a button to show a form, that form it shows i want to be able to add a form load. So i can click another button for the same form but different form load.

Stuggling to explain so i'll give an example

Main Menu - 2 command button "Add Student" and "Edit Student"
Student Form - 2 command button "Add" and "Save"

When you click "add student" on manin menu, i want the student form to load with "add " button visible and "save" button not visible. Then vice versa for when the "Edit Student" button is clicked.

Hope that makes it more clear.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Converting A Custom Command Button To A Standard VB Command Button
Hey there,
The task at hand is as follows: I have a large VB project with many forms that use a custom command button (it is the Gurhan Button, a freeware control available from PSC and other places). What I want to do is replace the Gurhan button en masse to the standard VB button.

What I have done is written a simple VB program that reads in the .frm files of the project as text, and made the appropriate replacements. This works fine except for the Picture property. In other words, a line like this:

Picture = "Form1.frx":11B4

causes problems in the converted project.
When I open the new form, I get the "There were errors, check log file for details" message. The log file message, not very useful, contains lines like this:
Line 12: Property Picture in GurhanButton1 could not be set.

Now, I am not an expert on frx files, but I would think that the reference to "Form1.frx":11B4 in the Picture property refers to its location in the file? And if so, the frx file is not being changed, so I am at a loss as to why VB cannot set the property. Any ideas?

Click Mouse While Mouse Button Is Being Held
What I want to do is have the program click the mouse button really really fast, while the user is holding the button down. I cant really think of what I could do. I was thinking I could tell it to goto the timer on form_mousedown and in the timer have code to click (dont know the syntax for making the mouse click).
I dont know how I would be able to tell when they let go of the button either.

VB Code:
Private Sub Form_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) GoTo Timer1_TimerEnd Sub Private Sub Timer1_Timer() mouse_leftclick If MouseDown = False Then GoTo StopTimerEnd If End Sub Private Sub StopTimer()'Stops the timer from executingEnd Sub

Would that If statement work? I just guessed at it. But if someone could tell me the sytax to click the mouse or if there's a better way to do this let me know please. Thanks

Getting A Button Click From A Custom Dialog Box
I hope that I can describe what I am trying to do.

I am using VB.NET

First this is a database application that has users entering data from paper forms. The data forms have a table class that handles the access to/from the db. When the data form is opened it instantiats(sp?) a table class obj passing a refference of the form to the class. This refference is used when opening a dialog box from the class. What I want to do is get the button click event from the dialog box and handle it in the class. Here is the code that I have so far for this.

Code:
Dim frmChanges As New frmVerifyChange()
frmChanges.txtChanges.Text = _DDE.strChangeHistory
frmChanges.ShowDialog(_frmParent)

:confused:
'WHAT DO I NEED TO PUT HERE TO RECIEVE THE BUTTON CLICK?
'THE BUTTON COULD BE cmdYes or cmdNo

frmChanges.Close()
Thank you for your help,

Mouse Click On A Button By Its Name
I've got to write a little automation routine to allow my users to push any of the buttons on various little (external) applications or dialogs.

I want to isolate the user from all the windows handle crud and just require them to give the titlebar text along with the text inside of the button to be pushed.

I pretty much know how to get the handle of an application by its titlebar text.

Now I want to send a mouse click to one of its buttons.

How would I make it so that my program will send the mouse click to a button by its name?

Do I use SendMessage?

This API stuff is killing me....

thanks for any help.

Trying To Create A Custom Command Button Control
Hey everyone,

About a year ago, I had found a site that showed how to create a custom command button control... however I recently lost this information (control I created) in a sys crash. I know that it used MouseEvents and a PictureClip that allowed you to paint just the edges and fill in the middle to allow resizing... If anyone can please help me I would greatly appreciate it! I need it for another program that requires custom styles and I need custom Close, Maximize, and Minimize buttons (as well as custom command buttons for the forms). I have searched high and low for this again... please help.

How Can I Detect Mouse Click And Button With Api?
Can anyone please help?

I want to detect the mouse click and button number within a mousemove event and not in its own event.

What it is, im using Waty Thierry's tray icon code (avaliable all over the net & vbdiamond.com) that uses a picture box as a tray icon, however mousedown/up dont work from the tray icon, but mousemove does, so i need to somehow detect the mouse down inside the mouse move event..

Does anyone have any ideas?

thanks in advance

Button Mouse Click Event
Hi,

Can two Forms (Form1 & Form2 with Command1 & Command2 BUTTONS on each Form) be set to display (visible) at same time, & to enable EITHER of the two buttons be clicked thus firing Command1_Click () / Command2_Click () ?? Or must one be set to have the focus? Doesnt moving the mouse over the buttons & clicking the mouse automatically gives the button covered the focus?

Also, is there corresponding Registry ACTIVEX API functions to the Webbrowser Control Events module, ie without using Webbrowser Event Control package?

Please provide brief sample codes if possible.

Custom Region Command Button *noob Questions
I need to know how to make a Control Box fit a bitmap region. I know that at the very top of the FAQ there is a link on how to do this, but I have downloaded that code and looked at it for 2 hours and I can't make heads or tails of it. If you guys could help me out with this it'd be much appreciated.
I'm trying to program the game Risk (the world domination game), and I was thinking that I would need to use custom region control boxes for the different territories as they won't overlap eachother yet you could still click on them.

*Please note I am not very good at VB, so go easy if possible*

Custom Toolbar Command Button Macro Question
I did quite a bit of searching and couldn't find this anywhere on this forum (or anywhere else on the net), so hopefully it's not an easy repeat I shouldn't be bringing up.

I ran into something that I can reproduce on every computer in my office with Office XP installed (and patched to SP 2), so I believe it to either be a bug or a feature but I'm doing something incorrectly.

Steps:

1) Open a new workbook
2) Insert a code module

Code:
Public Function SayHi()
MsgBox "Hello, World!"
End Function
3) Add a new toolbar
4) Add a command button to the new toolbar
5) Assign a macro to the new button: "SayHi()"
6) Push the new button

The result for me on every system here is that the function gets called twice and I see two msgbox popups.

Is this a known issue or am I simply doing something wrong to call a function/sub from a button without giving it a workbook and worksheet reference (which I want to avoid at all costs)?

Any help you can give is appreciated.

Thanks much!

Command Button Right Click
I have a toolbar series which the client has now asked for additional functionality but with the lack of realestate they do not want any more buttons added to the toolbar.

I am trying to execute the click event for each button but need to capture if the person right clicks on a particular button.

I can capture the right click through the mousedown event but then I dont know which button was clicked

In the ButtonClick event I can retrieve which toolbar button but not which mouse button was clicked.

Is there some way I can combine the two

This is my existing function if that helps

VB Code:
Private Sub tbrMain_ButtonClick(ByVal Button As MSComctlLib.Button)'Pass the button key through to the CommandBar sub Dim oList As CTKVList Dim oPair As CTKVPair On Error GoTo ErrorHandler If Button.Key = "ReadyState" Then Set oList = New CTKVList Set oPair = New CTKVPair 'Set up the Key/Pair With oPair .Key = "Campaign" .Type = CKVTypeString If g_oCurrentCampaign.Title <> "" Then .StringValue = CStr(g_oCurrentCampaign.Title) Else .StringValue = CStr(g_oCfgInfo.Queue) End If End With 'Add it to the List oList.AddHead oPair 'Set the reason to the list generated Me.TExtension1.TSetReason oList CommandBar ("ReadyState") Set oList = Nothing Set oPair = Nothing Else CommandBar (Button.Key) End If ExitHandler: Exit Sub ErrorHandler: RaiseError E_MODULE, "tbrMain_ButtonClick", Err.Number, Err.Description End Sub

Playing A WAV When Mouse Over A Command Button
I would like to play a wav when the user moves over certain buttons. I tried to use the mousemove event on the buttons but this results in continuous play whenever the user moves anywhere within the button. I would like for the wav to be played just once. It's probably something easy but I've been banging my head away for the past 2 hours to no avail so any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Waiting For Command Button Click
I am writing a game where tiles are laid out on a board. when one black tile is placed next to another black tile, the user should then choose a color for the tiles to turn. I've worked everything out except for choosing the color (right now you have to choose the color beforehand) What I have done is displayed an array of image boxes of different colors. I then want the user to choose a box and then hit a command button to select that color. How can i make the program stop and wait while the user clicks a box and then the command button? I have tried some looping stuff but it always locks up. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!

Command Button Click Query
Hi experts,
I am writing a simple calculator program and have it more or less completed. I would like to know what is the simplest way to allow a command button to be clicked, without any of the code behind it being executed. I know I could disable the buttons but i would like to visually see the buttons click without them doing anything. (ie following an error message when an attempt is made to divide by zero.) I know I could do this with some if... then... code but if there is a simpler way please let me know.

Right Click On Standard Command Button
I am using a standard command button of which I am sensing left & right mouse button clicks via the mouse_down event.
The problem is the button only shows as 'pushed' with the left mouse
button but not the right button.
I have tried calling the control's click event from within the mouse_down
event code but the button still does not "pushdown" when the right mouse
button is pressed.

Does anybody know a way of getting the 'standard' command button control
to depress when the right mouse button is clicked??

Thks in advance.
