Question1-Progress Bars (My other thread was hijacked by lettuce)

Steeldragon

how do i use the progress bars with a constant? I want the progress bar to use a variable defined as an integer for the value.It will be runningoutside of an if then loop that will set its value.

Teh

Progressbar with a constant? WTF

Use the progressbar.increment to show progression

Use progressbar.value to get the value

thanks...I was trying to use progressbar.value to set it's value. (you can all laugh at me now)...

Please include the answer to all these questions when asking something:

What language are you talking about? What progress bar are you talking about? What are you trying to do? What is the code you are using? What is happening when you run it?

Fine, you want to know what i was attempting to do? i'll tell you, though excuse me for any mispellings considering i don't have the source code on me.

[code]imports system.drawing.drawing2d.brushes
public form1.vb

private x as integer

private y as integer

private tercolorbrush as brush = new brush(solidbrush.fromargb{})
private w as integer
private ht as integer
private prog as integer =0
private cnst as integer = 0

---------------------------------snip a few lines and button click command--------------------------------------------
'terprog is the system name of the progress bar
terprog.value(prog)
if cnst = 0 then
prog=33
---------------------------------------none of the rest was implemented yet-------------------------------------

[/code]

It would appear that the hidden reference to "How to ask questions the smart way" has not only eluded you, but failed to come close enough to warrant a 'rim-shot' reference.

OK, let me explain. Please ask questions in the following format:

I'm having some problems with the standard Windows Form ProgressBar. I'm trying to change the value in VB.NET to make the progress bar show it is 33% done. my current code is:

progressBar1.value(prog)
prog = 33

I have already set progressBar1.Maximum to 100.

Then I would come and I would say:

Yo dude, do:

progressBar1.Value = 33

ehh, i never knew about progressbar.maximum. also, your second line of code doesn't work in the 2008 edition, i already tried it.

You just made a "rim-shot" reference. besides from that, most of my coding knowledge comes from reading these forums, & since there's almost never a mention of visual basic express edition 2008, i have very little clue how things work. Also, this is my first time posting a question of this sort.

No, you think you tried it. If you actually tried it you'd know that it works.

I stand corrected, It does work. Thread closed.

If you're going to correct grammar, at least make sure you don't fuck it up yourself.

Ironically, I almost embarrassed myself by using "your" instead of "you're."

PS. you misspelled Murphy.
