Visual Basic 2008 Alarm clock

[Gabryel501]

@10Iceman01

~Sorry, this is an old video, indeed, but I find it interesting, and I'm stuck~

Iceman, YOU ROCK! I have lots of questions (I am begginer at Visual Basic).

1. How can you make it hide in notification area?

2. How can you make it .exe?

3. How can you make a "Right Click Menu" in notification area?

[10Iceman01]

@Gabryel501

I'm telling you this from my mind cause I'm not using Windows anymore but I'm pretty sure this is how it works:

1.You make the form visible = false and from the notification area you can add in that menu a show function visible = true

To add the notification area you just add the item "Notifyicon" and you make it visible = true (either from the load code or from an action or just by default)

2.You go to the Visual Basic menu where it sais Build..

[10Iceman01]

@Gabryel501

3.you can add by adding a context menu strip , but don't forget to go to the notify icon item that you added before and select what context menu are you using

Good Luck

[screenmails]

can I get a copy of your source code? thanks :)

[Josh7harington]

did exactly what u did, but mine doesnt notify me when the "alarm" goes off, no sound, no msgbox?

[DJextrime]

When time is up program starts spaming messeges

[yodeiu4u]

@DJextrime Set the timer1 interval for 1000ms , that means 1 sec , cause if is 100 the timer will check label2 10 times in a sec

[jamiejamiew]

put the set button code in to textbox1 

[HelpCannel111]

woow epic program :) whats is the music name in backround pls? :3

[ThePepsimaxi]

Can i get the codes to the "AlarmClock V2" ??



[jackson39ful]

Code ???

[NSEmblem]

why didnt make it exclamation/information instead of critical??

[oooM1GU3Looo]

yeah

[fillecool2]

tough it's not an exe file so i don't know

[SpokenGiovannie]

Very Good Thanks One Question

How you convert this to exe?

Thanks for the Help

[fillecool2]

@SpokenGiovannie first click save all and save it then click "Build" then "publish (file name) " and run the setup in the folder u published to. :)

[MyloVanDongen]

Hmm thanks but i need a code for:

When a label tekst is 1000 and i typ in a textbot for how mutch numbers then the 1000 going down.

Loke something of this:

TextBox2.Text = label1.Text - 1

[MyloVanDongen]

What is the code for label2? That the number going down?

From 3 to 2 from 2 to 1 etc?

[10Iceman01]

@MyloVanDongen

U just add another timer with the interval 1000,you enable it when you click the button and the timer will have the code:

if label2.text > 0 then

Label2.text -=1

else

timer.stop

messagebox("message")

label2.text = 0 'to make sure it's not with -

end if

[boyercam]

@10Iceman01 Hmm are you sure? I get an error by usng this method!

[MsJack12345678910]

great video

[matrix86]

What if your computer clock isn't in 24hr mode? I tried a few different things, but just couldn't seem to get it to work when "am" and "pm" is involved. I guess I could make 2 text boxes, one for setting an AM time and another for setting a PM time...

[mariobrasil9]

leave britney alone!

(Britney Spears music in there lol)

cool vid

[ramppaaja]

Thx

[iLenkaa]

Nice! :)

But I used also a Textbox2 to put a reason in the message box (so I made the messagebox link to the textbox2) XD

Ps: srry about my bad english XD I don't really know how to say those things in english! :)

[N0oTiiboy]

Thank You for this video but

please hear me.. i need to know how to make it come ( right - Down )

when i start please ^^

[thehabibi87]

ok thats good

[tungruffel]

is there any way to let Label1 show like "seconds of day" and Label2 "Minute if day" etc?

Nice video!!

[10Iceman01]

let's say you have 3 labels and u want to see

h min sec

You do this:

'For hour

Label1.text = TimeOfDay.Hour

'For minute

Label2.text = ":" + TimeOfDay.Minute

'For second

Label3.text = ":" +TimeOfDay.Second

[Edward203]

@10Iceman01

What about adding the PM / AM?

[Edward203]

[NikonixVids]

how did u make it .exe file

[10Iceman01]

First u save the project where U want

After that on vb,net menustrip where u have the options file,edit,view etc go to Build and press the Build "name_of_your_application" button

After U done that go to where u saved ur application /bin/release and u will see an exe there

[matthewdriftking]

@NikonixVids He debug it (Press F5)

[updown789]

How do you get it to play music when the alarm is activated? Im running vista if tht helps

[10Iceman01]

There are 2 simple ways:

1.If U want to play .wav file(works only for .wav not mp3 or others:

If TimeofDay = The_alarm_time Then

My.Computer.Audio.Play("locati­on_of_.wav_file")

End if

2.If U are using the windows media player control(works for wav,mp3 and others)

If TimeofDay = The_alarm_time Then

AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.URL = "location_of_file"

End If

The 3rd method would be direct x but it's pretty hard to explain that.

[updown789]

cheers dude! ill try that! oh btw gr8 tutorial

[pantic233]

@10Iceman01 Hey its works for me the second way, but can i set more then one song????? Please answer me cause I Dream hard and i can't wake up so easy !

[10Iceman01]

@pantic233

pm sent...

[GTASADUDE]

@pantic233 u can use a windows media player. if you want i can help you ;<)

[updown789]

hey, um any way i could get this to play a song when the alarm goes off, cos i wanna use it to wake me up in the mornings and dno how to do tht

[Member01289]

Is there a way to make your own maximize button on VB or no?

[10Iceman01]

Add a picturebox,label,button or whatever U want and at that object on the clicking event add:

Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized

[Member01289]

k. Thanks!

[photographylover246]

could you please tell me what you use to convert it to an .exe???

[10Iceman01]

In visual basic on the menustrip where are the options like:File,Edit,View,Project,De­bug.... select the option Build.

After that go to where U saved your application bin>release

[photographylover246]

ok, cool thanks dude!

[TyranitarDraken]

i like this video =D +5

and it was very useful answers to the comments

this has helped me alot thanx =D =D =D

[yashhad6513]

man how do u make it minimizable to the system tray??

pls reply anyone who knows... most of all the vid uploader :D

[10Iceman01]

U can use: Me.hide() or Me.visible = false or Me.opacity = 0.0 Basically U make it invisible. At notify icon depending on the method U used to hide the form U will use: Me.show() or Me.visible = true or Me.opacity = 1 U will add the command in a contextmenu strip which U will add to your notify icon.

[1457Angel]

wow the final is amazing

[carnage95kid]

Whats The first Song?

[mithrix8472]

noticed one thing in your clock that bugged me, if you want an afternoon alarm time you have to enter it in 24hr or military time, granted i can do that easily but , i wrote an if.. then.. else.. argument and added a combo box with am and pm on my clock and it will covert the time over, if your interested i can send you the code, just pm me

[10Iceman01]

good for you but that application is 1 year old and it's a dead project for me (I won't work on it anymore).

Maybe I will make another video with another alarm clock from scratch and will make it more advanced with alot of options/customizations.

[kiti34]

love the music

[mithrix8472]

this prog is awesome, anyhow is there anyway to look at the finished code, trying to build an alarm clock of my own. just wanted to compare the code and see how yours worked. if possible. if not thats cool will prolley just spend a few days working out the bugs and tweaking mine. vb is a fun language

[kiti34]

awesome downloadable model

[Kofoed94]

the v2 model you made is very nice

[10Iceman01]

Use a notifyicon

[hardlyown]

[F1Fearce]

You could also change the font of the displayed time(S).

using a fontdialog.
