here is the project. the problem is with the control ButtonEx. the rest are just unfinished controls that i was experimenting with as i am sorta new to programming. thanks for your help

i dont belive so. i have the property declared shadows (otherwise it doesnt accept the declaration) i have had this work on some of my other controls. ill try to see what is different about this one. thanks

anybody had this problem before?

i made a custom button control just for fun but when i start the test program, the text i entered in the designer disappears from the button. in the designer, it works. i found out that for some reason vs.net is not adding a me.button.text property under the code properties of my control. the...

i am using a ini file so that it is easier for the user to change the path if required. i have attached the project. the ini file is in the bin directory also this launcher is for my grandpa so that explains the project name Removed binaries (1 EXE, 1 DLL) from attachment

has anybody had this problem before with the .ShowDialog() ?

No, these applications are all different (Media catalog, zip, applicaion bar). however, they DO have something in common. all of them throw this exception when i close or get rid of a form that was shown using .showDialog(). on other apps, this doesnt happen (even with showdialog) so im confused...

there is no single line of code that causes this error. on the form frmExtract, after the End Sub statement of cmdExtract_click, i get this error. when i click break, the pointer highlights the main declaration for frmMain like this: Imports C1.C1Zip Public Class frmMain This is where the...

Thanks for the reply, the line that throws the error is: Zip.Entries.Extract(lvi.Index, ExtractPath) this is the error An unhandled exception of type System.NullReferenceException occurred in FreeZip.exe Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. when i...

anybody...? your help is greatly appreciated :-\

they were not in the same code. the declaration was public in a module and the extraction was in a form. i moved the extract code into the module (slightly modified) and ran it and it gave me the same error. however i did try adding zip to the watch and it game me the following error: cannot...
