Request for help?

[DroidDork]

I am currently working on a project for work.. to be specific, I am wanting to write a customized "notepad" application for my personal use, to keep track of activities throughout the work day.

This program is for myself, and not the company I work for, for clarification.

Multiple times a day I will switch task and run into issues, of which I want to track every single thing... The application will allow me to add a time stamp with a simple tap and enter text to describe what I encountered.

This way, when my supervisor ask about a particular job, I have all the details on hand. It will increase my accuracy, and let the boss know they cannot pin me with something I wasnt involved in.

At any rate, I am asking.. if I ask for help with my project, what response might I receive?

I am a VB6 "guru", and this is "similar", but yet I still have a lot to learn..

Ive gotten an emulator up an running, but I dont think it is right.

Ive gotten a list view configured, but when I tap an item it is not added to the text edit box...

I am not wanting someone to write the program for me, just answer a few question along the way until my proficiency increases.

Later, I will be asking and/or seeking advice on open/read/write text files, etc..


Thank you kindly for your time in reading,
Andrew

I don't know what all you have in your listview or how you have it set up but this will input the listview line value into a textbox when used in the listview item click sub.

textbox1.text = Value

Thanks dman, I have the click event sub and just what you have typed...

I need to post my sample code so you can see.

Not sure if listview is what I should be using, I want something like a drop down list with single selection as VB can offer.

Am I headed down the right path??

Thanks,
Andrew

Similar to ComboBox ? I use ListView(Visible=False) and a label with adjacent down arrow image.
Clicking on image shows ListView /alters image to up arrow. On item click the Label is populate , ListView is hidden and image reset to default. Its one option ,although there might be something else out there...

Instead, I recommend using SQLite
