I have written a VB (6.0) progam that pulls data from a Comm Port. I get two bytes back everytime I real the data (i.e. FF E1).Does anyone know how to represent this as a Real number (or floating point)?
I need to document binary files containing integer and real numbers. I use BinaryReader, and BinaryWriter classes, with functions like ReadInt16, ReadSingle, or ReadByte. The files should be readable by any other hardware architecture/OS besides x86/Windows.
I need to document the type of default binary encoding, and can't find the MS documentation.The best I found says that it uses UTF8, but as I understand, UTF8 is for text formats, not for binary numbers.
I suposse that the answer I are looking for, is something like "little endian" or "big endian" format.
I have an application which draws a graphicspath in dot style using pen.dashstyle = dot. after all, i need to send the drawing points to another hardware. I have to extract the points out of the drawing in order to send them to hardware. the background of the drawing is totally black and the dots were drawn in yellow color. as an example suppose a simple circle drawn in dots with fixed distance in yellow on a black background. how i can convert this drawing to an array of points()?
I have the e.keyvalue (or e.keycode) of a pressed Key. Now the problem is, when is pressed a Oem key, to know the real $char of the key, depending from kekboard and language. In few words, starting from the e.keycode (that is not the ascii code), I would like to get the $char that the pressed key whould write in a text box....
I have a multitude of VB .NET programs that generate reports in Excel that I populate from an SQL Database locally. My boss wants me to port all these to ASP.net so that users could then access these reports with dynamicly generated results on a browser page.Before jumping onto imbeding Excel objects using ASP.NET from the code I have in VB .NET I was wondering on what kind of approach to use. What could be the most effective way to convert/display these reports in real time to the user via a Browser?
vb.net Dim a As Array = Array.CreateInstance(GetType(Integer), New Integer() {1}, New Integer() {1}) Dim b As Integer() = CType(a, Integer())
what i'm trying to do is to create an Integer array with LBound greater than 0. any way would be accepted, or can i say this: my function that takes i As Integer() as its argument does not have to check the LBound of i because there is no way LBound of i will ever be greater than 0
I would like to convert for example the string "98" to the integer 98. Also, is there a way to specify that the value contained in the string is in hexadecimal and that "98" gets converted to 152?
OK so in this hex editor I have, Hex Workshop, when I search for a 32 bit float i type in (lets just say) 1. It then spits it back at me in a 32 bit float, but also as hex.
the 32 bit float for 1 = 3F80 0000
I really cant grasp this idea, let alone put it into my program.
able to convert an integer to a float then to that sort of hex.

I am working on a form of copy protection for some software i am developing. In order to generate a unique license for a machine i am aquiring information about the hardware the software is running on. For this task i aquire the 'BIOS version' of the machine using the Win32 libaries. As the BIOS version format can vary from machine to machine i need to be able to convert a string value to a integer so i can perform a mathmatical calculation on it.
A typical BIOS version output may look like 'GBT42302e31' for eg once all the spaces and characters are removed. However this output can change dramatically between motherboard manufacturers.How do i convert the value 'GBT42302e31' to a integer like '5356243' for eg so i can then perform a calculation or hexidecimal conversion on it?.
I have tried the following and they all fail with numerous conversion errors:Cint Convert.ToInt64()
