Windows Form Data-->web Form-->windows Form
Hi folks
I have windows form that ask the user to 'Add New customer' and the info entered by a user in this windows form will be First Name, Last name,
Address, City,State,Zip,DOB,Phone,SS,Driver’s License , Account Pswd. Now there is a URL on the windows form, upon clicking the URL i am stumped about the following two things
1- Upon clicking the URL , i want to log-in to the website, that opened on the URL click, automatically. I mean SOFTWARE should do the loging, rather than asking the user to enter user name and password by hand.
2-After signing in a webpage will open up that has same fields like windows form(the web page is also a Add New Customer page). I want this webpage to populate its fields with the data that we entered into the windows form?
Okay i have no idea how will i materialize aforementioned question number 1. Regarding the 2 , there are folks who have suggested me followign two things
i)-windows form data should be taken to the web form in a query string(i don't like this approach)
ii)-The data entered in a windows form should be stored into a database/file(preferrably in XML format), and then webpage should read the data from this file/database(I like this , however i don't know if its gud or not...i mean there could be better solutions)
So please guide me....and enlighten me with the probable solutions. I really appreciate your time and effort. Any help, comments will be highly appreciated.

Will the regular code work with this as the path?
Want To Keep A VB Form On Top Of Other Windows...
Hi there,
I hope someone can help me with this.
I've created a simple ticker with info scrolling across it. Problem i have is that when the user opens any other windows, it falls into the background. Is there a way to have the form on top permanently? i don't mind it covering the title bar of any other windows, just as long as the ticker is visible.
I'm sure there will be a simple answer to this, so i hope someone shed some light on this...
Much appreciated,
James

Form Always On Top Disrupts Other Windows
Iam developing a LAN management apps for internet cafes and network gaming shops which is about to be finished. Iam suppose to send a notification to individual clients when their time is about to expire or has expired. I have accomplished this but I have noticed some problems when the client is running games. The approach is to pop up a window (a form) showing the message, make it on top using SetWindowsPosition API for a few seconds, then unload it automatically. But when games using DirectX are being played, the game minimizes after my form is loaded. When games using OpenGL are being played, my form could not maintain being on top at all and disappears from the screen just as soon as it loads. Can anybody explain whats going on? Or better yet, can anyone help me work-around this problem?

Windows Re-sizes My Form!

Is there any way to stop this?
Form Refresh In Windows XP
Hello,
I am working with a VB program that for some reason, in Windows XP, and NT environments, will work fine for a few minutes, but then stop refreshing itself. The program works fine in this respect on a Windows 98 machine. If on Windows XP, I set the compatibility mode to Windows 95/98, the program will refresh itself again. The program is automated, that is, you start the program, and it gathers some data and then ends. There is no user interaction other than starting the program. I have been told that there is a setting in the registry that can be changed to correct this. Does anyone either know what the registry setting is, or even why Windows XP treats the program this way? I don't want to have to use compatibility mode unless absolutely necessary.
Thanks!

Key Form AND Modal Windows On Top
Here's my problem:
I've got a frmMain that I'd like to remain on top. From previous posts, I've learned how to keep this window on top of all others. However, at various points, this form launches various modal "response-type" windows, using the standard code: "frmResponse.show vbModal, me". The problem is that these forms don't show up. If I set the main window not be be on top, then launch form, the new form is visible, but I lose the effect of keeping the application on top of other applications. I don't want to use MDI windows if I can help it.
Is there a solution to this?
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers!
Windows XP Keeps Changing My Form Colors..
Hi, I am new to this forum, and already tried the search feature to find my solution, but no sucess.
Anyways, I have a problem. My XP Color Scheme is blue. Well, I designed my app, and set it to what I want to look like. It looks good. Problem is, if a user has a different color scheme set, it looks bad. You can't read the buttons, the images I used don't match the form color anymore....It's horrible. I would like to know if there is some sort of VB code or some property to make the app stay the same color no matter what color scheme they have. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Pop Up Windows Stay Behind Main Form?
Hi Guys,
I wonder if anyone can help me,
I have a single form with some command buttons, when you click the command buttons they save and back up files, but say the files are in the backup location already, a small box pops to say the file exists overwright yes/no?
The problem I have is these little pop ups stay behind the form instead of being on the top, since VB generates these pop ups im not sure how to tell them to stay on top of the open form.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Windows File Download Form
hi all.
I would like to put several links on a website (as active desktop) which points to different .exe's files.
Whenever I click on each link, I get this 'File download' form, asking me if I want "to run this program from its current location" or "Save this program to disk".
How do I bypass this form and go straight to the .exe (executing the executable).
THanks all.

A VB6 Form Not Showing In Windows 2000
I have created an application in VB6 w/SP4 installed that connects to a database and is used to display data information from that DataBase(DB). The DB is in Access 97 format. I have created a logon screen as the first window that the user interfaces with. This screen contains a DBCombo box, that holds the user names, and a TxtBox that verifies the users enrypted password. The "OK" button goes and verifies the users entered data and returns with a Boolean answer. Obviously "IF True", then the program continues to load.
When the user has been ok'd to continue the Logon window is to ".hide" and the main window is to ".show". This has and continues to work under Win95/98/NT however, something strange happens in Windows 2K.
The verification of user name and password happens, and the Logon window dissapears, however the main form does not appear. The only way that I know that the program has not crashed is that I can see it in the task manager, and it shows up in the Processes as well.
Can anyone give me a clue as to why this might be happening? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Windows Task Bar Hidden By Form
When I start my compiled app, the main form (same size as the full screen) stays on top of the Windows task bar hiding it completely (I've checked that other programs e.g. MS Word behave properly allowing the task bar to stay on top). However this isn't happening when running it form the IDE.
The form's properties are:
Style = Fixed Single
Control Box =True
Min Button = True
Max Button = False
So what could I be doing wrong or failing to do?

Seeing The Entire Form When Running From Windows
I have a Visual Basic program which has been installed. My form is okay when I run it from VB. But when I run it from Start/All Programs/My Prog the form is too big. I can't see the command bar at the bottom of the screen and the navigation buttons below that. (This is a design pulled from the Data Form Wizard programs.)
I specified:
StartUpPosition - Windows default
WindowState - Maximized
(the same for both situations as both are running the same program.)
In the Start/All program/My prog execution I have to move the form up by clicking and pushing up on the top border just to see the bottom and then I can't see the stuff at the top. When I run it from Visual Basic it's okay. How can I correct this?

Windows Media Player In Access Form
When I click on a button or on the Windows Media Player itself in an Access 2003 form, I'd like to start at a certain position of a mp3 track. Let's say I have a table with two fields:
1. Name of the mp3 file (d:mp3 rack1.mp3)
2. Position (35)
How do I get this to work in an Access form?
I have it working in an Excel 2003 userform:
frmPlayer.WindowsMediaPlayer1.URL = "d:mp3 rack1.mp3"
frmPlayer.WindowsMediaPlayer1.Controls.currentPosition = 35
In Access it will not show me the 'url' and 'currentposition' properties.
