I have been writing an application for our company that writes information to an inf file. However, when other programs use this file, it seems to crash. Now, the same application in VBA does not have this problem.
I am calling the textwriter Dim oWriter As TextWriter = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(StrProjectInfPath, False); which seems to add in extra characters on the top line.
VS2010 (SP1) / .NET4 on Windows XP Pro Im having a slight issue with my password hashing function. The following function hashes the supplied password using SHA512 and returns a Base64 string.

I've been asked to re-write an application that was written sometime ago by another programmer. This application reads data from a database table, massages it, and then writes out the results to a text file that is later shipped off to another company. When I run my new application, it generates a file that, according to the byte count, is twice the size of the file output from the old application. However, to look at the two files with note-pad they look identical. I found that by using 'Ultra-edit' that the new records have a low-value byte hex '00' between each real character.
View 4 RepliesI have included my code so far below which doesn't work. I keep getting an error message with the New XmlTextWriter("C:myXmlFile", Nothing). Also it wont allow me to enter the element value from the array. Also when I stop running it and check the xml file it wont allow me to view - error XML document must have a top level element. Error processing resource 'file:///C:/myXmFile.xml'.

I created a simple BMI calculator through the guide.I have built it and published it on my laptop running Vista Home Premium with .net 3.5 SP1 installed.I can run the setup and subsequent exe file fine on my machine but when I try it on my girlfriends netbook (one of those fiddly little things) it wont install saying that some of the files are missing. It is running XP and also has .net 3.5 SP1 on it.There are only 2 extra files in addidtion to the setup.exe that vb 2008 creates and they are the application manifest and the program icon, both of which are located with the setup.exe but it still won't install. It is an offline installation but won't run.I copied the bin folder from the project to the setup folder and tried that, still no joy, yet if I try and run the actual program directly it works?

Essentially I am trying to replicate the Windows 7 (In-Windows) activation key TextBox form. The Form where it will auto capitalize letters, remove or deny all non alphanumeric characters except dashes every 5 characters that will be auto-input.I assume this can be done with a fairly complicated replacement Regular Expression but I cannot seem to create one to fit the needs.
This is an Example of what I have right now, but it creates an infinite loop as it removes all characters including dashes, than adds a dash, which changes the text and removes the dash again.

View 3 RepliesI need to create a console program that allows you to enter a string, of which is then outputted in reverse.
Sample:
Input: Diewas
Output: saweiD
Apparently I need to find out about strings and will also need to use a loop.
Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:
GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"
....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then
If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then
Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!

I have two textboxes. I type in one of them and the text gets copied in real time into another textbox. There is one catch. I need to replace specific character with something else.
If I enter a quote " in textbox1, it has to be replaced with " in textbox2.
I started with something like the below code, but obviously this does not work (tried different stuff - this is for demonstration only). In the example below 'a' represents " , and 'b' represents "
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
TextBox2.Text = TextBox1.Text

With the shape of really large characters such as numbers and alphabetic characters + others, is there a way to get that shape as a REGION please?Imagine a really fat snake forming the letter S or two rectangles placed together to form a large letter L or a T like the shapes in TETRIS.
1) Does anyone know of anything in VB.Net that can translate such shapes into a System. Drawing.Region or know of a project elsewhere that achieves this please?
2) While I'm on the subject, how would you SCALE UP / DOWN a System.Drawing.Region please? How would you work out the Transform Matrix required please?

Program works good, it is mixing characters good, but it doesn't write text to the file. It will write text in console, but not in file. Note: Program is working only with words that are divisible by 2, but it's not a problem. Also, it does not return any error message.
I'm making a custom control suited for handling passwords. I have created a control that inherits from a text box and I have implemented a lot of things so far. But what i want to do now is create a system so that when a user types It will display his last character typed for a X amount of time. Is there a way to turn only selected characters into password characters and still be able to get the password text from the Text property ?

View 1 RepliesI have an app to send SMS (developed using vb 2008) The characters allowed for the texts sms are them of "iso-8859-1" When the user writes in the textbox I do not want to allow him to write not allowed characters.

I might create an "a bit "manual" function but before I prefer knowing if it exists something more automatic.

The last charaters can range from 1 to 100 This is the code that i am using to remove unwanted characters which is working how i want it to do but when i pass each file to OrigName to get the original name
i am getting the above and i can not see where the '_1' are getting added. I don't want to mess too much with it incase it stops working the way i need it too. The lines in bold are the ones that write the results to a .tmp text, see below.

Dim request As HttpWebRequest
Dim response As HttpWebResponse = Nothing

The line which is coloured red is the problem line. 'htmpath is shown as "C:UsersColinDocumentscwbrowser empsres.htm" which is correct.
Why I get the Illegal Characters In Path error.
I'm trying to insert a - after ever 5 chars. I made this code.
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
If TextBox1.Text.Length = "5" Then
TextBox1.Text += "-"
End If
[Code] .....
But the mouse returns always to the left after it enters a -.
So I have this
Dim a as string = "Hello"
Dim b as string()
now I want b(0) to have "H", b(1) "e", b(2) "l", and so on.
btw a changes everytime, so don't just say do b(0) = "H"
