Historically I used Tek-Tips for stuff like this but I can no longer access my account there and they do not respond to form based mail. Maybe they got tired of the questions too :-)
I am not a student. I manage a 'large' network. Every now and then I need to roll up something for a specific task. Most of the stuff I write only sees my desktop so neatness and originality are not an issue.My current 'project' is throttling back a few of my users disk storage. I am not allowed to implement Quota's (Server 2003 infrastructure) so I thought the next best thing would be a duplicate file report. I purchased Folder Sized 4 which is a beautiful product (I have used it since it's humble beginnings as Bullet Proof Folders). The end users claim that the filename and date checks are not enough to prove a duplicate. Enter my idea.
I have cobbled together a MD5 hash generator from a function found out on the web. Now I want to send the results to a datagridview instead of my current disk files.I has thought that I could access the rows & columns like dgv.row(x).column(x) = "strFile", dgv.row(x).column(y) = "strMD5"Nope, hunting through the available properties did not point me to any likely candidates.
Again, if this is not the place for questions of this nature please let me know. I am not a programmer, nor am I in training to be one. I just toss little things like this together when needed. Importing a CSV file into Excell is working, but it seems rather lame to be taking so many steps.
"Sometimes your code requires an unmanaged resource, such as a file handle, a COM wrapper, or a SQL connection. A Using block guarantees the disposal of one or more such resources when your code is finished with them. This makes them available for other code to use. Managed resources are disposed of by the .NET Framework garbage collector (GC) without any extra coding on your part. You do not need a Using block for managed resources."
So, which unmanaged resources must disposed manually and which disposed automatically of by the .NET Framework?
I'm adding rows to a DataGridView via the following function, passing in one or more DataTables.The DataGrid is not aware what column(s) are coming back, but appears to build the column names okay.It's when it adds the individual cells (highlighted) that I get the following message:
ArgumentOutOfRangeException was unhandledSpecified argument was out of the range of valid values.Parameter name: rowIndex

View 2 Repliesi am using a Datagridview on my form. It get's it's datasource from a dataset: grd.datasource=set_temp After that I add ComboboxColumns manually. At the end I loop columns and set values into that cells from the comboboxcolumns. Works perfect so far. Now I click on a header and the sorting is changed, and then the cells from the comboboxcolumns all lose their values, they are all empty.
Why and what do I do to avoid that? Or must i refill those manual Values after sorting?

there are tools (SandCastle?) that can generate an MSDN-like documentation (HTML files) from your source code by using the XML comments above members. I am looking to generate a similar documentation (bunch of HTML files that one can link through), except not from XML comments but completely manually.It is for a custom scripting language, I have to document the available functions, and it would be great if I could do that in this common documentation style. Since there are no XML comments to generate the documentation from (the documentation is for the scripting language itself, not for my source code of the scripting language?
What I'm looking for in detail is a way to generate these documentation files by simply supplying this information for each function:
- Namespace (just the name and maybe a description)
- Function name + description + return type
- List of arguments and their types
from this I would to generate a document where one can first view all the Namespaces, click one (they are supposed to be links) and view all the functions in that namespace. Then you can click on a function name and view its description and list of arguments for that function.In other words: just like these automatic tools do, except now I want to supply this information manually.
While writing this I thought of one way that I might be able to do it: just create namespaces and functions in actual VB code (corresponding to the scripting language functions) and generate the documentation from that, but
1) That seems a little contrived especially if a better tool is available,
2) I would be in trouble with the types of functions and arguments, since they would have to be .NET types and not the types that my scripting language supports.
I am using Datagridview to show some table data from database. It is working but its appearance is not what i am looking for. Is there a way to edit columns and rows manually ?
This is a list of what i want to do :
1. First of all i want to change column captions. because they are like "Fld_name" etc.
2. There is a column that shows date. I want to write a code for it ( convert date type )
3. I want to add a button at the end of each row and write a code for it ( show detail about that record )
Basically, I'm working on a VB project, one instance of it at home using VB Studio and one at school with SharpDevelop (portable). However, some of the school computers do not have .NET 4 and therefore I can't run SharpDevelop to make the forms, etc. I would like to know how to edit/make a form via code, in Notepad++. An example of this would be setting up a form with controls such as TextBox, Button and perhaps MenuStrip.

Is it possible to manually download the Microsoft Framework 3.5 or 4.0 ? That would be useful in order to have it during installation of a program . I know that when installing a VB .NET program , it asks to connect and download it , if the PC does not have it already . The problem is that some people have a very slow connection speed or don't even have any connection . Therefore it would be useful to have that installation kit in order to supply it along with program itself .

What if if I want to edit or evaluate the data inside the DataSet?

I have created a windows service in Visual Studio. I also have an installer project that I have written. How can I register the Windows service manually when the user installs the application because simply copying the executable onto the target machine is not enough.
View 9 RepliesI know that the user can select an entire row if they want to, however if they select just 1 cell, I want the entire row that that cell is in to be selected, so that the user cannot just select 1 cell, they can only select a row, no matter where they click in the table.
View 3 RepliesSo I have this Windows service created in VB.Net, and all it does is perform a few calls and sits there.I have it installed on a test machine and when I start it manually, it starts up. When I stop manually, shuts down properly (onStop is called).When I start it, and reboot the machine, the service starts like it should, but when I log in, the service isn't running anymore and the onStop never showed up as being executed.I installed the service with admin privileges, so that shouldn't be an issue.Here is what I have:
Sub New()
' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
InitializeComponent()[code].....
Protected Sub GridView1_RowCommand _
(sender As Object, e As GridViewCommandEventArgs) _

GridView1.DataKeys(Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument)).Value)

Basically, it doesn't work and I don't get it. I've been trying to figure this out for a few days now and I can't see what I've done wrong. As you can see I'm trying to manually update a field in my database with the value of (originalvalue)+1 when the user clicks the buttonfield of the corresponding row.
I guess what I'm asking is if anyone can point out any mistakes, please do, or if there's a better way to do this (without having to go through all the DAL/BLL BS)
I need to set some of the columns in a DGV to specific widths. What I am looking for is to line the columns up with the labels above them. I am trying to do it like this(the numbers are just for testing):
Me.DataGridView1.DataSource = dsForm.Tables(0)
' column 6
Me.DataGridView1.Columns(6).Width = 100
[Code].....
what I might have to change in the properties of the DGV for the code to set the widths, I've changed so many that I am not sure what the default settings are any more. Also the look of the form is not open to suggestion as this is what the customer wants.
I have created a local database (.sdf) and added a few records. What I really would like to do is connect to the database manually and load the records in a listview. Anyone with some tutorials?
View 5 RepliesI would like to update data from my datagridview to ma database manually.
How should I determine which rows were edited?
I'm new to the world of VB.Net <-> Databases.I'm currently working on an application with SQL Compact 3.5.I realize that data et values on objects from the database but what I want is more custom...Students should have 3 fields for example, tableId, their name and birthYear.1 | John | 20002 | Peter | 1999And so on. What I want is to display their birthday on some label.text = "(" & DBvalue & ")" based on the selection of a listbox (which has tableId's listed as values). You don't have to worry about the update method of that label.text value, I just want a way to retrieve the birthYear value and put it into my label.text together with those extra characters, based on the tableId selected. (which I already have a way to get, so don't worry about that either).
View 4 RepliesThis application is meant to run at all times to download a web page every minute.To avoid freezing the UI, I read that the best solution is to move the code from a While/Sleep loop to a Timer that will be triggered every minute.The problem I have, is that the user must wait for a minute before the event is triggered:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Timer1.Interval = 60000
Timer1.Enabled = True
[code]....
Is it possible to force this event to occur instead of waiting for it?
