Add Control in your form dynamically

Add Control in your form dynamically

The form designer is very fun to use and useful to create form and usercontrol. Each time you add a control in your form, you have to think about the position of each control in that form. So is a pain in the butt.


I’ll make a little sample on adding control dynamically in a form. I’m too lazy to make something complicated. I’ll make a simple table.

adding controls to make a table         Dim oTextbox As TextBox         For index1 As Integer = 0 To 3 Step 1             For index2 As Integer = 0 To 3 Step 1                 oTextbox = New TextBox()                 With oTextbox                     .Name = "TextBox" & index1.ToString & index2.ToString                     .Text = index1.ToString & index2.ToString                     .Width = Me.Width / 4                     .Left = index1 * (Me.Width / 4)                     .Height                     .Top = index2 * .Height                 End With                 oForm.Controls.Add(oTextbox)             Next index2         Next index1

If you use the show function to display your dynamically created form, you could simply put it before you call the show function or after. If you use ShowDialog, your control will not be added in your form because your form is modal.

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click         Dim oForm As Form         oForm = New Form         oForm.Show()         adding controls to make a table         Dim oTextbox As TextBox         For index1 As Integer = 0 To 3 Step 1             For index2 As Integer = 0 To 3 Step 1                 oTextbox = New TextBox()                 With oTextbox                     .Name = "TextBox" & index1.ToString & index2.ToString                     .Text = index1.ToString & index2.ToString                     .Width = Me.Width / 4                     .Left = index1 * (Me.Width / 4)                     .Height                     .Top = index2 * .Height                 End With                 oForm.Controls.Add(oTextbox)             Next index2         Next index1     End Sub

When you run the program, your new form will look like this:

I don’t want to make big post. That is the reason I’ll stop here. There are many things we could do here.



You could “improve” your code using a try and catch to control any program crash. This make you program better in quality. I also put the dim outside the try-catch. If something goes wrong in the loop, at least, it will display the index1 that cause the problem.

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click         Dim oForm As Form         Dim oTextbox As TextBox         Dim index1 As Integer         Dim index2 As Integer         Try             oForm = New Form             oForm.Text = "TABLE crfeated dynamically"             oForm.Show()             adding controls to make a table             For index1 = 0 To 3 Step 1                 For index2 = 0 To 3 Step 1                     oTextbox = New TextBox()                     With oTextbox                         .Name = "TextBox" & index1.ToString & index2.ToString                         .Text = index1.ToString & index2.ToString                         .Width = Me.Width / 4                         .Left = index1 * (Me.Width / 4)                         .Height                         .Top = index2 * .Height                     End With                     oForm.Controls.Add(oTextbox)                 Next index2             Next index1         Catch ex As Exception             MsgBox(ex.StackTrace & vbCrLf & "index1= " & index1 & vbCrLf & "index2= " & index2)         End Try     End Sub

How to Be Stealth in Frugality

That we live below the poverty line.

At Church:

When we first moved, we went to a church where they knew Dan was going to college and that he worked at Walmart. They put two and two together and started trying to give us stuff. Someone even bought us a turkey at Thanksgiving. Turkeys were $0.39 per pound at Thanksgiving. I was trying to convince Dan that we should buy two. We did not need a turkey given to us. We didnt feel that we could fellowship as brethren if they couldnt get past this difference. We know they were just trying to help, but it wasnt a big deal to us that we werent wealthy; it was a big deal to them.

The church we go to now we found through some of Dans coworkers. There are several other Walmart workers there and they are pro stay-at-home mom. We dont feel poor there because its not an issue. Some people may have put two and two together, but its not an issue.

If we have someone over, and I make them a meal, do you know that they think? They think Im some sort of gourmet cook, making everything from scratch. I wont generally spout the price per pound of flour verses tortillas, but if they are interested, I might share how easy the recipe is. They think my husband is lucky to be cooked for.

On the Streets:

People who see us on the streets dont know were "poor". We have a nice car, in good shape. I think its real pretty, too.

We dont leave the house looking dirty and everyone has normal looking clothes, even name brand clothes.

Our Family Knows:

They know Walmart isnt the best job around. Without going into too much family dynamics, we get a mixed reaction about our situation.

Dans family is poor. Dan grew up poor. They dont expect us not to be poor. Theyre not frugal though. Its interesting to see people who are poor, but choose not to be frugal. They dont have debt, they just spend all that they make when they really dont need to.

My fathers family is poor, although academically accomplished. My dad and uncle went to Oxford; my aunt went to Cambridge. They dont see wealth as a sign of accomplishment, but are more interested in discussing world political leaders with Dan. They are content in their lower income, as we are in ours, and are pleased with how my life is turning out in general. They are the ideal for us in many areas, much to my mothers chagrin.

My mothers family is wealthy. When I got married, my mom told me to reconsider, that being poor is only romantic for so long. She does not approve of my lifestyle, but has softened and likes Dan a little bit more than she once did.

Her parents are a little more supportive, as they were poor when they started out. They think that being poor is a stepping stone for wealth, and assume that that is what we are seeking after. They think Dan will be getting a salary comparable to the pastor that their church employs in Cape Cod, which is a wealthier area in Massachusetts.

Who reads my blog?

My father reads it, and Ive told my aunt and step-mom about it. I told one brother who comes to see pictures of the kids and agrees with my ideals. Ive told a few friends from our home church, but Im not sure they read it. I think my older sister would like it, but she just had a baby, is going to school and works full time, so a lot of the ideas may not work for her.

No one on my mothers side and no one on my husbands side of the family knows this blog exists. Were close with my husbands family, but I dont think theyd like to see some of the criticism for this blog. I think theyd worry about me and I dont want them worried. I think my mothers family may actually be offended, as a lot of what I say here is an affront to their more affluent lifestyle, but maybe not.

How do others feel about your frugality? Or if you live below the poverty line, how do people respond to that?

Scar Cream : Scar creams can contain a variety of ingredients including silicone, onion extract and vitamins. Typically, scar creams contain a variety of skin moisturizers. While using a scar cream can help heal a scar, our staff believes that using a scar gel is a more effective option.

Scar Gel : Very similar to scar creams, scar gels can also contain a variety of ingredients but are generally silicone based. Silicone scar gels are the most effective way to help diminish the size and color of a variety of scars including burn scars, surgery scars, plastic surgery scars, and Keloid scars. Furthermore, scar gels absorb into the skin more efficiently than scar creams which is why our organization suggests purchasing a silicone scar gel over a scar cream.

Keloids: Keloid scars are part of the unique hypertrophic scar family in that they can actually grow. Unfortunately, Keloids are considered the most serious type of scar because they are the only type of scar that can literally expand beyond the boundaries of the scar area. While some may assume that the only way to get rid of a Keloid scar is through surgery, the reality is that surgically removing a Keloid scar results in the formation of another Keloid more than 50% of the time. Thankfully, there is a variety over-the-counter Keloid Scar Treatments available. Keloid scar removal using a topical scar treatment will require patience, but it is possible and suggested by a variety of plastic surgeons and skin care professionals.

Plastic Surgery Scars: Thankfully, scars that result from plastic surgery including tummy tuck scars, breast augmentation scars, and liposuction scars are generally small. Plastic surgeons will typically supply their patients with either a silicone scar gel and or silicone scar sheeting after their surgery. Our team believes that silicone scar treatments are the best option because they naturally conform to the body whereas silicone scar sheeting may lose contact with the body when it moves. This is especially true concerning scars that are on parts of the body that are constantly moving.

Scar Products: As previously stated, there are many different scar removal products to choose from including those listed above in our review grid. Choosing a safe and effective scar product should be taken very seriously as the wrong choice may significantly delay the healing process. Thankfully, the best scar products are easily available through our online store and can provide scar therapy in the privacy of ones home.

Here’s the rundown on natural scar treatment :

1. 100% Silicone gel or cream :

• Keeps moisture around the wound. Speeds healing. Fast healing cuts scar formation.
• Silicone is an infection barrier. Infection stops normal healing, which means more scar tissue piles up.
• Silicone reduces scar color and size.
• It’s used by doctors following scar surgery.
• Doctors recommend it for home scar treatment.

2. Onion extract :

• This is an older, homeopathic remedy.
• It was tested at a Texas hospital.
• Redness, itching and scar size stayed the same.

3. Vitamin E :

• This was also part of the Texas hospital test.
• It proved worthless for scars.
• It could help your overall health.

4. Copper Peptide :

• It boosts collagen.
• Collagen is bad. It’s what makes scars bulge.
• It may be fine for indented scars.

5. Arnica :

• Homeopathic remedy.
• It easily breaks down if it comes in contact with any other substance.

6. Siegesbeckia orientalis :

• This is the juice of a sticky bush, used to cover wounds. So there is some protection.
• The Chinese think it’s a weed and avoid it. The Chinese KNOW herbal medicine.

7. Sorbitan olivate.

• Basically, it’s olive oil.
• It can soften skin.
• Oil di olivia makes no permanent change in scarring.

8. Elicina.

• This is snail extract.
• There is no medical evidence it works to reduce scars.

SCAR FADING – YOU’LL NEVER ERASE A PLASTIC SURGERY SCAR. YOU CAN FADE IT :
Scar fading is the number one goal of scar patients, especially people who have had plastic surgery. The doctor promises a tidy scar. He can’t be certain it will be. He can’t promise it won’t turn colors.

Why scar fading?

• Reducing color makes a mark look smaller.
• Scar fading gives the appearance of a flatter scar.
• Facial fading treatments can ease embarrassment.
• Silicone is proven effective for fading.

The plastic surgeon tried to hide his handiwork. Your facial scar may be at the hairline. Or under the ear. If it heals red, or purple, or multi-colored, it becomes obvious.

Tummy tuck scars, and breast reduction or improvement scars can’t be hidden well. An effective scar fading cream can be part of “managing” those scars.

Also, you can’t know for a year to eighteen months just how much your plastic surgery mark will fade. That’s how long normal fading takes. Until then, people can see you “had work done”.

You can encourage plastic surgery scars to fade sooner with a silicone scar fading cream :

• Silicone was once used to moisturize scars. By accident doctors realized it shrinks tissue and fade redness.
• Of course, a shrunken scar is also less noticeable. Silicone works to reduce scar size.

Scarprin is formulated to alleviate :
- Keloid - Hypertrophic scars.
- Surgery scars.
- Accidental Scars.
- Pregnancy scars.
- Burn scars.
- Stretch Mark scars.
- Raised Acne scars.
- Breast implant & reduction scars.
- Tattoo Removal & Body.
- Piercing scars.

SCARprin™ uses a proprietary blend of ingredients to help combat the effects of scarring including helping reduce the pain, redness, and swelling associated with a scar. SCARprin™ is composed of 100% silicone. However, unlike typical silicone scar treatments, SCARprin™does not use bulky, awkward sheets of silicone, but rather allows users to place a small amount of the silicone gel directly on the scar.

After just a few minutes of applying SCARprin™, the gel will absorb and any excess can be dabbed off the area (may not fully dry), which will allow the user to go about their normal day without worrying if anyone will notice that they are using a Scar treatment. In addition, the user may apply make-up on top of the treated scar without affecting the effectiveness of SCARprin™.
Reference at here.

On the surface, SCARprin may appear to be similar to a variety of other scar treatment products. However, if you compare these other scar treatments, you will quickly discover that SCARprin is the most efficient and effective silicone scar treatment available for diminishing the appearance and irritation of scars. This is because SCARprin:

- Forms a protective, flexible silicone barrier over the scar area protecting it from natural elements.
- Allows the scar to retain moisture from the surrounding, healthy areas of the skin thus helping the scar heal more quickly.

Unlike some of its competitors, SCARprin uses only medical-grade silicone. This is because silicone has been proven time and time again in a variety of studies to be the singular most important and effective ingredient used to treat scars. Silicone has been proven effective to not only help treat minor scars such as accidental scars, but it has also been proven to treat more serious scars such as:
- Keloids (Keloid scars often expand beyond the original area of the scar).
- Hypertrophic scars (Hypertrophic scars may also expand, but are limited to the original boundary of the scar).
- Surgery scars (These scars develop from poorly executed stitches/staples, C-sections, and plastic surgery such as breast augmentation, tummy tucks, facial resurfacing scars, etc.).
- Burn scars.

While some similar scar treatments do use silicone, they often use gel sheets or pads. While these products will provide a silicone barrier, they are inferior to using a silicone gel. This is because a product like SCARprin uses gel as opposed to silicone sheets or pads which allows the user to cover their scar using only a minimal amount of silicone gel. This in turn, will allow the user to save money by continuing to use SCARprin much longer than they would be able to by using silicone sheets or pads.

In addition, the silicone barrier created by using SCARprin provides the user with the flexibility to go about their normal day without worrying if their scar is protected. This is because unlike silicone sheets or pads, the barrier created by using SCARprin will adapt to any movement as it will not loose contact with the scar. This is especially beneficial if the scar is on an area of the body which constantly moves such as a knee or elbow.

Furthermore, SCARprin dries quickly allowing the user to cover the treated scar area with cosmetics or sunscreen. SCARprin does not leave a sticky residue like some cream based scar treatments, and will not stain clothes. It is best to apply SCARprin twice daily in order to receive its maximum effectiveness.

In order to save our readers valuable time and money, our team has compiled a detailed list of the best scar treatment products available on the market.

These products all contain ingredients which have been shown to effectively and safely diminish both the size and color of a scar. All of these products were reviewed and judged based on their ingredients, effectiveness, overall customer satisfaction as well as the manufacturers claims.

FAQ
1. Is SCARprin™ Safe?
A: Yes, SCARprin™ is safe to use on adults as well as on children. It is also safe to use SCARprin during pregnancy. However, it is important to note, that SCARprin™ should only be used externally.

2. How soon should I see noticeable results?
A: Our customers typically see results within the first 90 days of using SCARprin. However, depending on the age, size, and color of the scar, it may take longer to notice results.

3. Is SCARprin™ effective for all types of scars?
A: Yes. However, you should not use SCARprin on an open wound. Some scars such as third-degree (open) burns will require medical intervention.

4. Is it possible to be allergic to SCARprin™?
A: If you have a known allergy to silicone, do not use SCARprin™. We have never experienced a case in which one of our customers has had an allergic reaction to SCARprin™. If you do experience prolonged pain, swelling, or excessive redness or irritation after applying SCARprin™, wipe away the gel, clean the scar area, and contact a health care professional as soon as possible.

5. Can SCARprin™ diminish internal scars?
A: No. SCARprin™ only works for, and is intended to treat external scars.

6. How long should I continue to use SCARprin™?
A: It is recommended to apply the product twice daily for 8 weeks or longer. If results are still noticed after this time, applications should be continued.

7. Will SCARprin™ ruin my hair or clothes?
A: No. SCARprin™ will not ruin your hair or clothes. However, we suggest only using enough SCARprin™ to cover the scar. Once you apply the gel, wait for a few minutes for it to absorb. If it does not fully absorb after a few minutes, do not worry, and simply remove the excess gel. Applying a small amount of SCARprin™ will help prevent it from getting in your hair or on your clothes.

8. What is the shelf life of SCARprin™?
A: Due to the fact that SCARprin™ is formulated without water and with 100% silicone ingredients, it will last approximately three years.

9. Will SCARprin™ treat acne?
A: We have not tested SCARprin™ to treat acne. However, we have found that it is effective in reducing the appearance of acne scars once they develop.

10. How many applications can I get out of one bottle of SCARprin™?
A: There is no concise answer to this question as the number of applications will vary based on the size of the scar.

11. How long should I wait after surgery to apply SCARprin™?
A: Do not apply SCARprin™ to surgery wounds that are new/open. Wait for the wound to close and for all bleeding to cease. If you have stitches, wait for them to be removed prior to using SCARprin™.

12. What are the ingredients in Scarprin™?
A: Scarprin™ is made with 100% silicones which are Dimethicone, Dimethiconol and Cyclopentasiloxane.

13. Do you offer a guarantee?
A: While the ingredients used in Scarprin™ have been shown to diminish a wide variety of scars, we cannot offer a guarantee due to many factors such as age of scar, type of scar, severity of scar, and how the individual skin responds to the product ingredients, and most importantly if the product is applied as directed.

14. Does it lighten scars?
A: Scarprin™ does not have any lightening agents in the ingredients so if you want to lighten any of the dark scar colors (if any) Scarprin™ will not help much with that. Because scars get dried out, irritated and itchy Scarprin™ helps to relieve those irritations which in turn helps to reduce the discoloration. For darker colored scars, you will need to search for a skin lightener.

15. Will Keloids go away and never come back?
A: Once you have achieved satisfactory results, you should not have to use Scarprin™ any longer. However, if you notice any change in the scar after you have stopped use, start using Scarprin™ right away to prevent from the scar from growing.

16. How long does one bottle last?
A: One (1) bottle can last about 4-6 weeks on a scar area about 2”-4” in size depending on the application amount of each use.

Note: to add your own pic for the posts with no thumbnail, replace the image url in blue with your own

So we have added the Css to style the widget and the script to make it work. Now all we have to do is to add the widgets code to the blog sidebar in a Html/Javascript gadget:

Step 4. Go to Layout - click on Add a Gadget

Step 5. Choose the HTML/Javascript widget and paste this code inside the empty box:

<script type=text/javascript>var numposts = 3;var showpostthumbnails = true;var displaymore = false;var displayseparator = true;var showcommentnum = false;var showpostdate = false;var showpostsummary = true;var numchars = 100;</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/feeds/posts/default/-/Name-of-the-label?published&alt=json-in-script&callback=labelthumbs"></script>

Note: Where it says Name-of-the-label is the name of the label you want to display, and if your label is case sensitive, like in my example, then you should type it that way.

Also within the last code, there are parts that we can customize, just change true with false or vice versa:

var numposts ← Number of posts to display
var showpostthumbnails ← Show/hide thumbnails
var displaymore ← Show or hide the read more link
var displayseparator ← Show/hide separator
var showcommentnum ← Show/hide the number of comments
var showpostdate ← Show/hide the posts dates
var showpostsummary ← Show or not the posts summaries
var numchars ← Number of posts characters (here you have to change the 100 value)

Remember that the gadget displays the latest posts from a particular label, therefore, if you want to display the latest posts from other labels then just repeat step 5 for each additional category you want to add.

Thats it :) Enjoy!
