I want my Control Arrays and Invisible Labels

5 New Member
I have several VB6 applications that I am rewriting in VB2005 Express. I used invisible control arrays to place labels over snapshots on a thumbnail screen. Choosing one of the thumbs would open the enlarged version of that thumb from a file folder of jpgs. Unfortunately VB2005 no longer has a way to make a click event on a particular portion of a larger thumbnail screen. I just need an idea from anyone who has one. I thought of tracking cursor coordinates and somehow converting that to a specific location on the screen but I have not had any luck perfecting the math for it. Thank you anyone for help. /ji

Does anyone know why, when adding a panel to a web form, the text boxes, labels, buttons, etc. are hidden behind the panel, but drop-down lists are not? Every time I make my panel visible (pnlError.visible = true), I have to make the drop-down lists invisible (lstProgram.visible = false). Any advice is appreciated, thanks

Sorry, but this ia another whine about VB.Net's lack of Control Arrays. I am new to VB.Net and I'm building an application that uses variable number of Label controls that are created at run time. The number of label controls will vary between 50 and 200. I have created an array of labels and placed them on the form. It works great, BUT I have not been able to raise any events for these controls. I made a small demo with 9 labels...

Are there control arrays in vb.net 2005? Maybe some one could help me out with an example. I know how to this in VB6. My database is called Planner.mdb There is a table called Weekdays. I want to read the first record in, and use that to set my labels as follows me.lblDay1 = WeekDays!Day1 me.lblDay2 = WeekDays!Day2 and so on. In VB6 I would have done this in a for loop. Something like me.lblDays(iLoop_ = rsWeekdays("Day" & iLoop)

In my application, I have many forms. Some of these forms contains some labels, which are placed in the header section, and act as a column header. Because of the available space, the orientation is vertical. This application (A2K format) is used by many users on different platforms and with both A2K and A2K3, without problems. However, one of the users reports that in the forms with vertical labels, the text is invisible. When these...

I'm a recent convert to VB.net from VB6...and I can't believe they don't support control arrays. I have an app that uses a ton of Control Arrays...mostly labels and text boxes. I need some guidance on how to proceed...including any third party tools. Thanks

Hi all, I would like to know what is the best way to create control arrays of Labels and be able to index them? I am a former VB6 programmer that was used to plopping controls on the form and have the arrays created automatically. Please provide a snippet of code or good reference site on C# on how to do this thanks.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
