<span style="text-decoration:underline Thank you for your time.
Let me start off by saying I was, several months ago, making a strong effort to fully understand the VB.NET programming language used to create windows forms in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. Recently after taking a 2-3 month break from practicing
the code I decided to get a copy of the newly released Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate. I opened my project I had been working with through the 2010 edition using the newly installed 2012 edition. After examining the code and hoping to jump start my memory I decided
to work on a new project. I had every aspect of my new little practice session completed that I had hoped to start off with. Just one problem stumbled me. Im sure its a simple fix and I cant see how its slipped my mind.
I want to add a button to my 300x700 form that does not open up a <span style="text-decoration:underline
new form but instead takes the form I have and modifies to fit the new scenario. Keeping the same window size (300x700) and not opening a new form, but simply taking the one I have and setting it to a new state. So instead of using this bit of code:
<pre class="prettyprint lang-vb Form2.Show() [/code]
Which does open a new window (or "form" in the terms of VB Studio) I need a command to change the state of the current form as mentioned above.
For example... Imagine you are using an installer. When the window appears and asks you to accept the "Terms & Agreements" you tick the box and click "continue." Upon clicking continue the screen changes. Everything about the window remains the same
besides the contents. You now see a screen asking for the destination it shall be installed to. So youve gone from the page stating the "Terms & Agreements" to a new page requesting the destination to unpack the installer. This was done without opening
or closing any windows. I hope Im making this clear enough. It appears as though only the thing happening is the state of the previous window is being modified to match the conditions needed for the next one to operate.
If you could assist me with the string of code that deals with this function, please do. Ive spent hours on Google and havent come to a conclusion. Im sure ts something obvious and something I should know by now that Im just not remembering at the time.
So please do forgive my simplistic vocabulary, and my confusing way explaining the topic, as I wasnt sure of any other way to explain my thoughts or problems. Once again if you can help me obtain the code that operates in such a way it would be more
than greatly appreciated.
Best regards
