In Visual Basic, how do I keep a program that I'm running on top of EVERYTHING? For example, I have an application in Visual Basic that has a GUI, and I want it to stay on top of anything that may open after it.
I searched the internet, found a bunch of things, and NONE of them work. If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it.

Greetings, manontheedge!
If I read correctly, it sounds like all you need to do is to make the other forms disappear:
ThisForm.Visibl e = False
ThatForm.Visibl e = True

In VB.NET, the form has a TopMost property to do that. - Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
-
Me.TopMost = True
-
End Sub
In VB6 and VBA, you need to use an API call, but I've forgotten what it is. I'll look at my code and post it tomorrow.

Hello,
First I want to refer to the problem "WebRequest : execute a button" of
a few days ago.
The way I solved it, I loose my session, and as a consequence my
session variables. I don't want to keep those variables, as an
alternative, as ViewState variables because I don't want to transfer to
many hidden fields.
This is the code I use :

Hi there.
This looks like a good place to get help with a problem I am having:
- We have a c# windows app, which performs an HTTPWebRequest to a IIS box on
Internet to retrieve an XML response.
- In our test + develop environment this works wonderfully. We have it
working through ISA server and also without ISA server.
- At our client site however, the application times out. This appears to be
caused by Keep Alives.

Hi,
Both way works, I'd just ask some experts which way is better?
My application creates a log file daily.
Now each time when I write a log, I will open the file and append to the
end. Ocz, if the file is not exist(e.g. another day), it will creates the
file first.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
