I'm writing a class-library in VB.Net and one of the subs that are being called from the application which is using my library has more or less the following syntax:
Public Sub LoadDict(ByVal PhoneticType As String, ByVal strDict As String)
where PhoneticType can be phonSoundex, phonDoubleMetaphone or noPhonetic
I want to give the application-developer a possibility to select the PhoneticType from a list when writing the call of above sub (I think it's called attribute-arguments). This would make it easier for the developer since spelling-errors can be avoided and which will avoid errors when using the library. I think it's all about attributes but I haven't managed to get it to work despite trying.
I wrote a Log class that details the exception, including the method name and its arguments list,but I couldn't find any way to programmaticly retrieve the arguments values.in some forums it was said that its impossible mission. I find it very odd.my arguments list looks like:
argA As String = ? argB As integer (Opional, Default value = 2) = ?
You know how you can put a picture in the resources file and it will be included with the exe. I was wondering how could i get a video to be apart of my program so that I would have to carry the video around.

I am compiling and deplying my program on CD. I am using the PAINTSTROKE font in my program. This font is not on everyone's computer. How do I tell VB 2005 IDE to include it? I assume this would work with any font that may not be on another computer.
I'm using a dll in my program, it works fine. But when I publish and try to run on another machine, it says the dll is missing.Am I right in saying that I need to add it to my references, with the Add button on the references page? When I do that, it says it's not a valid assembly or com component.
How do I fix this? My level of knowledge is very low, especially with dll's.
I have created a form that should allow user to communicate with the database. The search criteria are filled withing Textbox. Then the string from the textbox is transferred into the SQL Command string. However, it is not included...
SQLStr = "SELECT * FROM tblMain WHERE ID = " & txtSearchBox.Text & "'" MsgBox(SQLStr)
And only this part is stored in SQLStr variable = "SELECT * FROM tblMain WHERE ID = " - (pops up in msg box)
Is there anywhere I can add folders to my project, so when someone downloads my project/program they automatically get the files I added into it. Say I want to include a data file, and my program automatically uses that file for my RichTextBox1 - And everytime they save, it saves to that file - And when they open up the program again, it opens that automatically preloaded file that came with the program?
I need to include a text file that I host on a website, into my program. I'm not sure if you can do this, but I need to. What specific code, or object (with code) should I use, to do this? Version Used: Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition
I am trying to "behind the scenes" log myself into a website, from the VB code behind my ASP.NET website. But I am dumbfounded as to how to do this.
As far as I know I should be using the WebRequest or Webclient class. That is about as much as I know. I am not sure how to use the class.
I want to click a button on my website and have its Click event send a username and password to another website. This other site isot affiliated with mine. I realize the concept may seem stupid, but I plan on taking this further later, but Just need to know this now.
I have 2 source codes in fortrran (I have not written them). I visualized these codes by linking them to VB2005.when I excuate the VB.exe, when VB calls one of these DLLs, there is no problem, but in calling the other DLL, the DLL is executed but the VB.exe is closed and the interface page to the user goes out.
I've tried searching for a way to get a list of all files + all files in all subdirs. I've tried a simple shell("dir /s /b > myfile.txt") but it doesn't work because of some Danish specific characters. I have looked at the "getfiles" method, but I can't get it to work
I'm writing a program that gathers a list of files within a directory and optionally, every file within the subdirectories (10 levels deep) of the directory then exports it as a text file. I have no idea how to do this so I just attempted to code it myself.
It works by gathering a list of every subdirectory within the selected directory and their subdirectories, so on and so on and adds them to a listbox. Then to gather the list of files I used a for each to get the files within the subdirectories but it shows "(Collection)". After exporting it shows " System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection`1[System.String]".
How can I make this code work? I think I could've done this much easier a different way but I need the full path included.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Try ListBox1.Items.Clear() Dim FolderBrowserDialog1 As New FolderBrowserDialog
I follow a "new" book called "Programming Using Visual Basic 2008 7. edition" by David. L. Schneider.
But when I was creating a file called " PAYROLL.TXT " it didnt show up in the debug folder as it should. How do I get the file automatic located in the debug folder?
If first question is answered:Second question - is it the same way to include other files?
Is it possible that I could include .NetFramework installation in my setup so when user runs setup, all dependencies including .net framework are installed with that setup?
I am working on a project for a local charity to build a library catalogue of their books/music. I have built the main form and database but I would like to include the data they have already collated in excel (over 1000 records) so that it doenst have to be manually input into the finished program.is there an easy way to do this, I tried a cut and paste from excel into the data table in my project but unless I'm doing something wrong it wont let me paste the data into the table.
I have a master page with menu in it and i have to include that master page in all the pages i have . when i am trying to include it in my Default .aspx page i get several errors such as Parser Error Message: Only Content controls are allowed directly in a content page that contains Content controls.
I have written a simple app that allows our clients to access documents they might need throughout their time of doing business with us. They access these document via a button click event. First off I'd like to publish this program and install it onto a CD so that the end user does not have to install anything on their machine. They just simply pop the CD in and the program runs and they can click on whatever document they need. I'm having to trouble figuring out how to install it on a CD. I am also pretty sure i've done my mouse click events incorrectly because i have the exact path to the documents in my resources file.
i'm currently using the "System.dianogistics...process"(i'm not sure if thats the exact syntax and i forgot a couple of the words) function(i'm not sure if this is a function or not. i'm not super familar with VB). but when i use this method it requires the exact path for the file. which doesn't make sense if i want it on a CD which would change the location of the file for my C: to E:.

My problem is quite simple and I am probably just not using the correct syntax, I am trying to add an attribute in my class so that when I serailaize the object it will include the schemalocation attribute in my generated XML.In C# I would be looking at doing something like this:
[XmlAttributeAttribute("schemaLocation", Namespace = "xsi")] Public Property schemaLocation() As String Get Return "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema MyNewsItem.xsd"
[code]....
However in VB Im unable to find the translation for [XmlAttributeAttribute("schemaLocation", Namespace = "xsi")]
Trying to start a discussion on what approaches forum members take when faced with the issue of writing code that calls SQL queries upon a DB. Do you tend to always put SQL in stored procedures and call the proc (and does that include basic CRUD operations) or always the opposite? Or do you prefer a mix of some procs and some coded sql? If its the latter then how do you determine which queries go where?I imagine the scale of a project can dictate some of the possible answers. I've done both and sometimes I find that quick and dirty apps that have little chance of changing or are easy to modify do not need procs. On the other hand, I generally will choose the mixed option where anything other than CRUD (i.e. workflows) will be sent to a proc. I have a particular interest in hearing about your experiences with larger projects (i.e. 100+ tables in the DB) that employ a Domain Model approach to a layered solution (has distinct UI, business, and data access layers.) However I'm interested in responses to all sizes and shapes of projects.Opinions?
I'm trying to make a simple chat client. But it seems that the "Dim ClientData As String = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(RevievedBytes)" is returning a string without the trailing quotation. During a step-into, ClientData was "something instead of "something". If I manually put the other quotation on the end during a step-into, it would work. Why is this happening?

I have a script that calls system name, but right now my users have to manually input the machine name after looking it up with the .vbs into a textbox. I would like to cut out the middle man and just include it automatically in the subject line of my form.
This is in ASP.net iwth VB.I have a quiz project that I've been assigned for work.This quiz project contains two main SQL Databases it pulls the info from. First is a Quiz table, which contains three columns: QuizID (Pri Key), Title, Description. This is where I declare the quizzes, indicated by the QuizID (1, 2, 3....etc)
The second table is the Questions table, containing the following columns: QuestionsID (Pri Key), Title, Answer1, Answer2, Answer3, Answer4, Answer5, CorrectAnswer, QuestionOrder, QuizID....The QuizID in the Quesitons table matches the QuizID in the Quiz table.Thus for QuizID = 1, it consists of all the questions with the matching QuizID in the Questions table. The CorrectAnswer I want to assign a simple value (1, 2, 3...etc).I need a way to take a set of questions (based on the QuizID) put them in some sort of table and randomize them (or rather shuffle them) so that each time this quiz is taken, it pulls all questions randomly, but not repeating any)...I then want the code to pull the question and coorepsonding answers to pick from in a radiobuttonlist. However, It only needs to pull the number of answers. Example, a True/False will only have Answer1 and Answer2. The other Answers will have the NULL value in it.
There needs to then be a way to go through each one of these questions that have been placed in the table (in that random order) using a "next" button. When a question and possible answwers are displayed, I alaready have code to keep the answers in the session to grade it at the end (using correctAnswer and selected answer.I have no specific way to bind the data to the Database. I have used SQLDataSource to make other connections before, but I don't know if this is the best way.
I would like a relatively hack-free way to do this? For example, the following takes a screenshot that doesn't include the semi-transparent window:[code]....
Either my google-fu really sucks or this is not as easy as it sounds. I'm pretty sure why this is happening because of the way the video driver would have to separate the memory to make this work, but I don't care why it doesn't work, I just want to do it without...
* print-screen key hacks
* 3rd party software
* SDK functions are OK but I'll upvote every object owned by the user that can show me it in pure framework (Just kidding but it would be nice).If This is the only way to do it, how to I do that in VB?
