[TUT] Save Custom Settings

Now with this tutorial you could make it to anything you want. But I will be showing you how to allow Members to add custom stuff in your projects.

Now lately ive seen people with Link apps, I personally don't see how it would be helpful for myself, but I will show you how to allow your members to add their own link, and have it saved.
We start off with a design like this


Step 1
Double Click My Project on the right in the Solution Explorer.
Click Settings and add 3 settings named Link1, Link2, Link3, Name1, Name2, Name3.


Step 2
Go back to your project, and right below Public Class Form1 put
This will allow it so that we can use the word Settings instead of My.MySettings.
Next put the following code in Form1 Load sub
Should look like this


Step 3
Now we need to add the links, so for each button click it and add this.

Button1
Button2
Button3


Step 4
Now we need to add an extra form, go to Project > Add Windows Forms > Add.
Make the second form look something like this.


Step 5
Ok, So now click the form itself and put the following code below Public Class Form2
Then go to Form2 Load sub, and put the following code in it


Step 6
Click the Save button, and put this code in it.
Should look like this


Step 7
Now go back to form1, and click the button "Set Custom Links"and in it put the code
Done
Now your done. I have not found a solution to refreshing the settings on a separate form, I have a solution that could be timers, but it wont be pretty for the programs process. When you open the program back up it will be saved.
