• Visual Basic Playing a sound file

  This may have been answered before i am not sure, i am running Visual Studio 2005 beta, i would like to know how i can play a sound file in the background when someone opens a form. Any ideas I am using the my.computer.audio.play function to play an alert. The alert is the result of checking a database for new entries every 10 seconds. If there is a new entry that the software has not seen yet, it uses the VBPower Tools Notification Window to pop-up a message. What I want this to do is play the audio at that same time. My problem is, I am unable to get audio to play inside of a timer's tick event handler. Does anyone ...Show All

• Windows Forms Visual J# redistributable package and setup program question

  I have a setup project for a J# assembly and when the setup.exe program finishes installing .NET 2.0 it then looks for VJ# redistributable package. I have set the Launch condition properties to launch the vjredist.exe properly but when this installation is finished my setup.exe program has  exited memory.

• Visual Basic Toolbox still does not display user controls.

  My project, which has 2 user controls in it- does not display the user controls in the toolbox.

• Windows Forms Custom Control: How to move?

  I am creating a custom control by inheriting from System.Windows.Forms.Control. What is the standard way of implementing a visual move of the control when the user drags it at runtime   Which event should I be trapping Thanks. You see, I thought MouseMove was when the mouse is over this object only.  But apparently the MouseMove event will continue to fire even when the mouse moves outside the object so long as the left button was still held down. The other issue was that the control has to move within its container's coordinate space, but e.X and e.Y of the MouseMove event are referenced to the ...Show All
