What Controls Are These?

File Size And Multiple Controls In A Single OCX (like Common Controls)
I have been working on several controls that all draw with similar graphic methods, such as UseXPTheme, System, OfficeXP, Office2003, etc. DaVBMan reminded me that I can have several public controls in a single ocx like the Common Controls do. So far I have an autohide toolbar, custom button, custom frame with titlebar, scrollable container, and a system listbox. I also have a few more ideas for additional controls.

Here is what my concern/question is. For arguments sake, let's say the name of my main ocx is IDKControls. Then pretend that the size of the complete ocx is 1 meg. Somebody adds a reference to my ocx so all these controls show up in their vb toolbox. Then let's say the only control from the ocx they use is the custom button. When they build their setup for their program, is the entire size of the main ocx included in their compiled app, or just my control(s) that they use?

I guess my primary reason for asking is I'm trying to decide whether to set my controls up as stand-alone controls, or whether to go with the main ocx that contains all the controls. If I go with a single ocx I can move most of my graphic methods to a module that would be used by all the controls.

I have learned a lot in the past few months about drawing custom graphics, but when it comes to designing something like this I am still dealing with some very large holes in my knowldedge! Thanks

ZOrder And Layer (putting Intrinsic Controls Above ActiveX Controls)
Hi, in VB, it seems that intrinisc controls cannot be above/in front of (in zorder) usercontrols.

Is there anyway around this?

User Controls And Windows Installer --controls Aren't Getting Registered
Hi,

Can anybody give me the rundown on what I need to do toget my user control to install with my application. I have a moving graphic control that uses a slider [MS windows Common Conrols 2(6.0)].It runs just fine when I test-install on my development drive--Win2K Pro on my secondasry IDE..

Well, that's no big trick since VS 6 Enterprise is already installed, and my control was registered locally when I built it. The problem is that when I reboot to my testing drive--NTS4 on my primary IDE-- it finds a data type mismatch. At first, I was getting a message saying that MSCOMCT2.OCX was not properly registered, or that a component was missing. After I included the control in the components for my main project [where it is not used directly, only through my user control], I no longer got the error for that component. It still doesn't start up properly though. I'm wondering what I'm missing in my installer.

Another thing I'm wndering about--and I don't know if this is related--is the ADODC controls. I have had problems with the events for these controls. A week ago, when I tried switching from ADO 2.0 to ADO 2.5, the compiler didn't recognize the signatures for these events, and I had to switch back to get them to work. Now the situation is reversed. The compiler started objecting to ADODC events again, and I had to switch the reference to ADO 2.5 to get the program to compile. Could this be the source of the data type mismatch that NT4 sees?

Any suggestions for how I can get the installer to install dependably would help.

Thanks,

Joseph

Compare Main Form Controls To Subform Controls
Hello,

I have a form frmMissyFact and within this form I have a subform frmMissyFactbackup. the sub form is an exact copy of the mainform. The data source is different. What I am trying to do is compare the controls value on the mainform to the controls value on the sub form and if they don't match set the back color to Yellow. Basically the user want to know what has changed from the week before. I am trying to use a for loop. this is the code I have.

Private Sub Form_Current2()

Dim ctl As Control
Dim frmMain As Form
Dim frmSub As Form

Set frmMain = Me
Set frmSub = Me.frmMissyFactbackup.Form

For Each ctl In frmMain.Controls
If ctl.Value = frmSub.ctl(ctl.Name).Value Then
'set to normal color
Else
ctl.BackColor = vbYellow
End If
Next ctl

I keep getting a runtime error. Application defined or object defined error.

Does anybody have any Ideas on how i can make this work. I know I can write an if statement for each control but if theres a loop I can use it would be better.
Thanks,

Splitter Controls- Maximising Multiple Controls Per Pane?
I'm using MBP Splitter, but all splitters seem to do the same thing in this case- they maximise the control which is allocated to each pane of the splitter.

In my case, I have a Rich Text Box plus three labels which I want to place in a pane, but that isn't possible because the splitter only accepts one control to be allocated. My solution is to allocate a picture box element to the pane, then place the RTB & labels in that. That seems to work but I'm concerned as to how to resize the RTB when the pane changes size. Do I simply change the picture box control's size and assume the RTB will follow suite or do I have to resize both the picture control and RTB at the same time?

Lighweight Controls Above Image Controls - A Solution
I've been for the last 2 days searching and diggin' in the forum archives because I wanted to know whether I could make lightweight controls (labels and lines in my case) appear on top of a picture box, which finally turned out to be almost impossible (or more or less hard, better).

Well, I don't know if this has been posted before, so here I go. I use an Image control instead of a Picturebox, and set its Zorder to 1. Then I put the labels and lines and set its Zorder to 0. This way you can have an image and put labels above it. Obviously an Image control has a lot less features than a PictureBox, but if you're in my case (you only need to load an image that will serve as template) it does the trick very well.

Iterating Through Controls Collection Where Some Controls Are Arrayed
Colleagues,

Can I access the arrayed controls through the Form.Controls collection? I’ve tried the following code, but I get a run-time error.


Code:
Dim lin As Variant

lin = Me.Controls("linTran01")
‘linTran01(0..4) is a control array
‘I get a Run-time error 450 on this line “Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment.”

lin(0).BorderWidth = 5


Thanks,

Word 97 - Events Of Controls Made With Controls.add
I'm looking for a way to trap the events of controls made with the controls.add-methode.

f.e. a textboxes made with controls.add ....

    Set Mycmd = Controls.Add("Forms.textbox.1")
    
    Mycmd.Left = 10: Mycmd.Top = 10
    Mycmd.Width = 90: Mycmd.Height = 15.75
    Mycmd.Text = "This is the content of the TextBox1"

    Set Mycmd = Controls.Add("Forms.textbox.1")
    
    Mycmd.Left = 10: Mycmd.Top = 20
    Mycmd.Width = 90: Mycmd.Height = 15.75
    Mycmd.Text = "This is the content of the TextBox2"


... creates two nice textboxes.
But I cannot trap the events of the textboxes ...


Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As MSForms.ReturnInteger)
    Stop
End Sub


... because it does not recognise the object textbox1, textbox2 etc..

Anyone a idee how to solve this?

Please notice that I'm using VBA in Word 97
With greetings and thanks in advance for your reply,

Adrey

Exposure Of Controls Within User-created Controls
I'm playing the lottery here because I'm sure my question is so specific that only a few may know the answer, but what's life if you take no chances? Sorry for the epic nature of the post, but to boil it down - I need to know how to make a user control with standard VB controls on it exposed to the outside world.

I am using Borland's Silktest to test a complex application written in VB6.0 and C++ (COM). Silktest is pretty clever - it somehow automatically grabs out the bits of the interface so that you can write automated testing applications that interact with the application rather than recording keystrokes and mouse clicks.

What happens is you run your application with Silktest pointing at it. Silktest will recognize ActiveX controls and allow you to interact with those controls in your script, so I may see a text field and be able to read what's there, or even insert data into the field.

However, we've noticed a really odd thing - on a panel that my company wrote, if that panel contains user-built controls, those controls are fully exposed to Silktest. However, if that same form has something simple on it, like a VBLabel (which Silktest has built in support for!) it won't show up at all. As I mouse over our home-grown controls I see them show up with a unique identifier in Silktest. As I mouse over a vanilla VB label, I see it represented as an image, along with the entire rest of the control.

I think the problem has to be that the simple controls are not exposed to the outside world in the same way as our user built controls. My question for the VB gurus of the world - is there something I can do to expose these controls? If so, where do I get at it?

My developers are swamped, and they didn't know the answer off-hand. I will try to get VB loaded on my system and start experimenting, but I thought that just maybe someone knew the answer offhand.

I have to throw myself on the mercy of the boards - I am 5 years from any kind of real programming. I'm now out of retirement to write some automated testing scripts for an application I worked on an eternity ago. If it sounds like I don't know what I'm talking about, I'm sure you're right!

And thanks for reading if you made it through!

Draw You Own Controls Instead Of Using Image Controls
Hi all. I need some advice of you people

I have design a usercontrol that acts like an the vb6 commandbutton, but with a mouseover event and other features. This controls works fine to me.

What I am using are varius image controls to store the pictures of the command button with his release, over, pressed and up state.

Well ... I'm wondering if it's possible, instead of using image controls that loads jpg that was myself who draws the control in code with vb functions and apis.

my question is too is a better and faster method.

Here I attach a capture of the usercontrol where are placed the buttons that I'm actually using to this




Thanks very much

ActiveX Controls Vs. Shape Controls
I'm writing a program that allows a user to drag symbols (rectangles, lines and circles) from a stencil onto a drawing page. My symbols may also be labelled by the user - very similar to Microsoft Visio. I'm unsure as to what approach would be best. Should I create my own control with a label and a shape or do I just use the shape control provided and fit any labels within the boundaries of the shape.

Using active X controls provides me with the standard mouseup, click etc events that come with controls whilst using shapes would mean that I have to write my own algorithms for drawing, resizing, labelling and dragging.

Also how can I show the user that the control they've clicked on is ready for resizing or dragging. Vision does it with the use of several blue squares should I just change the border colour.

Please help I'm not asking for code or anything just the idea(s) (behind implementing my own visio)

Thanks
James.

Embedded Controls Vs UserForm Controls
Hello All...

I am (almost done) building a database/spreadsheet program that I have been using a UserForm with controls to manipulate. I would now like to switch to using embedded controls on a sheet within the workbook. The first thing I have noticed in trying to do this is that the embedded controls...(so it seems) can't do anything with a cell range unless it is part of a "Sheets" reference???... even if I select the sheet itself I still can't refrence a cell within the active sheet unless I call the sheet name first. e.g:


Code:
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
[A1].Select

This code gets an object error if I use an embedded control
but works fine with a userform control.

However this works fine for both:


Code:
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Sheets("Sheet2').[A1].Select

Any Ideas???

Dynamically Loading Controls Into Controls...
I haven't worked with creating my own controls much in the past, and I need a bit of help. I've made two controls, one is a kind of listbox, another is an item to populate the listbox, that can hold pictures, text, etc. My question is how would I dynamically load an item control into the list control as part of an array?

^^^ I hope that makes sense

Adding Controls Using Me.Controls.Add() Into An Array Possible?
Adding controls using this method is it possible to create an array like this?

I have "always" (didn't know any better) just added controls using Load(), which I already have Control(0).

If I don't have any existing controls and want create a control array with this method? Can't seem to find anything in MSDN.

Sheridan ActiveX Controls And FarPoint ActiveX Controls
Hi there,

I'm trying to compile an "old" VB application in VB6 and it requires license for Sheridan ActiveX controls and FarPoint ActiveX control. Does anyone know if there is a free (or trial ) version of those controls? If not, where are the best places to purchase the license for those controls?

Thanks a lot.

Dynamically Adding User-created Controls To User-created Controls -- For Gurus
dear all,

i have created two UserControls, control1 and control2.

i need to have multiple instances of control2 running into control1, and i need to catch the events of these instances.

i would have, in control1, declared this:

VB Code:
Private WithEvents ctl2() As control2

unfortunately you can't declare an array with WithEvents.

I've seen a method that works by encapsulating control2 into a class, and then adding this class to a collection.

my questions are:

1. is there another / easier way to do this?...

2. how do i dynamically add control2 to control1?

VB Code:
Dim mCtl2 As control2Set mCtl2 = New control2Set mCtl2 = control1.Controls.Add("Project1.control2", "CTL_" & index)

doesn't work since .Controls is not a method of the object...

any suggestions?...

Which Controls To Use?
Hello,

I'm designing a GUI in vb.net.
I'm not asking for help with syntax. I can look that stuff up and try on my own. The problem I'm having is designing the interface.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words.


Code:
A B
-----------------
| MIKE | X |
| JEN | |
| Dan | X |
-----------------
A is a list that I pull from the DB. B is a just a cell with an X through it if a certain procedure was run during the time the app was open. It doesn't have to remember state. I was going to use a gatagrid but since only one column is actuall data from a DB is this the right control to use?

What controls should I use?

---

Controls Associated By Tab?
My original design had a form with 8 text boxes (control array). Now I learn that I need to add a tabstrip (using SSTab), each tab will have the same 8 text boxes. The boxes on each tab comprise a set, and each set will be different.

Now, I think I have learned that the controls on a tab are not associated with the tab like a control is associated to the form (txtMyTextBox versus frmMain.txtMyTextBox).

So.... Should I just expand the control array to a maximum of 48 (6x8) or create 6 control arrays?

I should mention that only the first tab is guaranteed to show. The other 5 tabs only show based on special characters found in one of the text boxes. Tab 1 (0 index) only shows if characters are in the last text box on Tab 0... Tab 2 only shows if characters are in the last text box on Tab 1..... You get the idea.

edit for spelling.

3D Controls..
I want to know if there is a way to display controls like combobox,Date picker bove DBGrid columns.

The catch is : These controls only seem to have 3d appearances..It does not look good over a Grid. Setting their properties to 2d or Flat (if available ) does not seem to work! also they only Have fixed heights. I want their heights to be decided by the size of the grid's rows.

Help me out!

Pls Also check out a related issue :

Help With Sum In Controls
In Access 2000, I need to show the total of a field, Receipt Amount in a table called Receipts in the form of the Items table. There is a one-to-many relationship between the two tables where one Item can have many Receipts.

I've tried the following formula in a control box in the Item forum, but I keep getting ?NAME# in the control box.

=Sum([frmReceipt].Form!txtTotInv0001)

Any suggestion would be great.

Thanks

Hi,

I have a form in wich you enter a first and a last name. Now if the 2 are not isNull(), there should be only one entry so I search for it and bingo.

Now, if one of them isNull() then there could be more then one entry so I wanna open another form with a scrollingdown list box()(sorry but... dunno how to call those in english) in wich the user will find all the choices associated with the first or last name he entered.

As an example:let's say you're searching for Bob Dylan. You enter Bob in the "firstName" box and click the GO button... then the other form pop's up and ask you to choose from the list:

Bob Clark
Bob Dylan
Bob Binette...

How to do that???
I've read the "AddItem(Text, Index)" method but I don't quite understand.
!!!Any help would be appreciated!!!

For Each / Controls
I don't know why I can never make these work. I have a frame called "Choose_DT" in a userform called "Criteria". I have several check boxes in this frame and one is called chDTAll. If this is selected, I want to automatically deselect any other check box in the frame. Here is my code:


Code:
Private Sub chDTAll_Click()

Dim ctlDT As Control

If chDTAll.Value = True Then
For Each ctlDT In Criteria.Choose_DT.Controls
If TypeOf ctlDT Is CheckBox Then
If ctlDT.Name <> "chQALL" Then
ctlDT.Value = Not chDTAll.Value
End If
End If
Next ctlDT
End If

End Sub

It seems to do nothing. I tried a lot of variations of the for each line but got none to work. Thanks.

Me.controls

ADO Controls
I would like to be able to change the contents of a Datagrid at run time using ADO controls. I have tried the following simple code, which only works on occasion.

End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
Set Datagrid1.DataSource = Adodc2.Recordset
End Sub

Any suggestions how to do this better is much appreciated?

Could somebody tell me why a combo box becomes invisible when another form overlaps the form where the combo box is located. After closing the second form you notice that the combo box became invisible. If you open the combo box list and select an item it'll become visible again.

Using C++ / .NET Controls In VB
Is it possible to use C++ or .NET controls with Visual Basic? It seems that most of the controls (buttons, text boxes...) support unicode unlike VB. I know I can use Forms 2.0, but they cannot be redistributed and I heard they aren't very stable in VB (memory leaks / out of memory errors).
I really need to perform unicode queries to Amazon Web Services.

Mis Placed Controls.
Okay, stupid question probably, but I am workin on an EVB project (should be similar enough to regular VB), and I can't find 2 timer controls that I created. I want to change the interval on them, and would rather just change it on the control rather than programatically. Is there any way to "find" a control in the design layout?
