Hi,
I have written a small vb.net program that downloads a file through
ftp and displays the progress of download on a form (kind of the one
you see when you save file from the internet). The problem I am having
is when clicking (and holding mouse button) on the form's
caption/title bar the download just stops until I let go of the mouse
button. I've tried to do Application.DoE vents on several form events
but that doesn't work. I would appreciate solutions to my problem.
Thank you!

Hi Max,
Change formborderstyle to 'none' and there won't be a caption to click on.

Bernie, thanks for a quick reply.
Yeah, I know how to remove the title bar from the windows form but I
wanted to leave it there.
I basically want the same functionality that you get from the form you
see when downloading a file from the internet. When you click or drag on
its caption bar it has no effect on download.
Thanks,
Max

You could always try some weird things like calling the form's mouseup event
when the mousedown event occurs. Never tried it. Might be worth it.

This may be a situation where spawning a thread to perform the download

Chris,
Yes, the download actually stops but the timer continues to tick.
So my bytes transferred stays the same, transfer rate begins to
decrease, remaining time starts to grow. This only happens when I
click on the caption bar, clicking inside the form doesn't produce
this result.
I'll see what I can do with threads but there has to be some event of
clicking on the caption bar that I can override.

My problem is I open a new form on the double click event of the datagrid

Hi All,
I am trying to determine if the user clicked the "x" close button within the

I am using the datagridview within VB2005. I validate the values in the row
when the user leaves the row via the grid's RowValidating event. I want to
allow the user to exit the application by clicking the "x".

Newbish on JS here. Found this script on the web and it does what I want

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
