When my app starts it will check if it's the right version with a webservice, if not then it downloads new files and runs the updater. The updater will copy paste the new files overwriting the old ones.At the moment, I am using a xml file to transfer information from the app to the updater like the where the updater has to copy the files to.However, I would like to get rid of this xml file and send this information to the process directly.
I am making a function of an application that when a function is called the application will close all processes that are owned by the user and were started after a specific point. My thoughts on this would be to trigger an event in my application every time a process is started and ended, and only if the processes is owned by the user, the event should get information (e.g. the process ID, name, etc) about that process and add or remove that information to/from an array depending on if the process starts or ends. Then when a function is called end all the processes in that array.
I have a fair bit of experience with VB.NET and C# (In this case I chose VB.NET, blame my laziness), but I do most of my professional work using PHP. I have no experience what so ever in using any database with VB.NET let alone MySQL.Just FYI, at the moment I am only trying to Query the database to gather the information required to activate. The Activation wizard and algorithm building (which is finished anyway), and everything else will come soon. I chose the MySQL database because I have experience with it, and it seems the best option for remote usage.The whole idea already works in PHP, I'm just have major issues moving it accross into VB.NET (Using the MySQL Connector.NET);I understand the basics, and all I need to know how to do is Count Rows and gain access to the other information in a row based on provoided information (in PHP, through mysql_ result)
So, here goes nothing, this is the Query code I am using in PHP to complete the job I want to do in VB.NET. [code] As you can see, I basically need to get the PHP code into VB.NET to fit into the 'btnQueryDB.Click' Command in VB.NET. By Equivalent, the Product ID in VB.NET will come from 'txtPID' and similar, Serial Number will come from txtSNUM. Once counted to be 1, the Activation Code and Status will be fed into 2 other text boxes in the form. (acCode, and acStatus).
In my program, I need to be able to access font file information like what the font's title is called, the styles it contains, etc. I am already able to access the font's file name and path and use that, but I need the other information too.
I've used a recursive file search of the fonts folder (which is how i got the paths and filenames), as well as using Dim oneFontFamily As FontFamily, neither of which seem to have what I need.
I have been working on a small side project that will read in from a serial port and send off a email depending on what it receives. At the moment I am stuck with a problem of it telling me it cannot access the text box as it was created on another thread. Does anyone know what I can do with this error? I have tried using invoke statements but it does not seam to work. [code]...
I want to be able to get the table structure / design / column information from an access database. I have created a post in the Database/Access section with no luck, here, but I am wondering if I could achieve this through vb (2008 express edition) rather than the access sql query itself. My overall goal is to compare one DB structure with another, an integrity check if you will.
Am using MS Access as my back end and I am having a table called "Dept" with 2 columns (dename & cname). In Vb.Net when I click a command button, all the data's of the first column should be displayed in ListBox1 and the Second column in ListBox2. I do not know how to proceed
how come the picture I have a ComboBox that has the names of customers. How do I get when I click the button "OK" appears on the client data: "Name, Mail and Telephone" in TextBoxes?
Why couldn't I access some propery of the first listview and send it to the second? I've tried lots of different properties but none work. What about the ItemPlaceHolder or just User_Category? My thought is to to this with two ObjectDataSoureces and send the DataKeyName from the parent listview to the second ObjectDataSource. But I don't know how to get the DataKeyName (see the ???? below)
How can I access the current user information via LDAP and VB.Net 2.0*? I found a vbscript that works, but I'd rather have it done in .net
Dim objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") Dim strUser = objSysInfo.UserName 'returns current user account Dim objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUser) 'queries active directory for user account
I'm using the framework 2.0 because it is for more likely in my XP/Vista/7 World to have 2.0 installed than 3.5 or 4.0
how do I access the information that the user has typed into my datagridview. In my case, I know I want the information stored in column 1 of the datagridview one row at a time.How can I get at this information?
I would like to try to make a program similar to Zune or iTunes. To do this, I need to access a music file's information (the kind which can be found in Properties>Details.) Can someone help me with accessing this information?My idea is to have the user open one or more music files and have their display names go into a ListBox, and when you select an item, TextBoxes or Labels would display the information. If I were to use TextBoxes, then I would like to be able to save the information if it is changed. I do not need help in actually playing the song, just how to access the information (i.e. Artist, Album Artist, Album, Song Name, Year, etc.)
I'm having a problem with loading my MS Access Database. I can get it to load but it won't load in a row. My friend told me to try this but it puts all the information in a column instead of putting all the information spread out accross the row.
Here's my code: Dim lb_Connection As New OleDb.OleDbConnection lb_Connection.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA SOURCE = pass_database.mdb" Dim lb_SelectCommand As New OleDb.OleDbCommand [Code] ..... Also I'll attach an image of what the program does when I load it.
I was wondering if it's possible to access information from within Visual Basic about WIFI connections, such as their SSID, MAC address, ect. I don't know whether I have to add a reference, what commands to use, ect.
First, I would like to add a text box search field to this form (because navigating through several thousand users with arrows isn't going to work). When the search button is pressed, I want the username to be looked for. If found, the form (and each textbox, option button, etc.) is updated with that user. I can then modify the user's information and press save.
Second, how do I access and change information in a database with only code? For example, if I periodically want to check every user in the database to see if they have over "100 points" and if they do, I subtract 10 points from that user.
This code is for listing all folders including subfolders. but when i run this code i m getting error "Access to Path F:System Volume Information is Denied" How can i ignore this folder and continue scan.? is ther any solution for this error?
I am attempting to create a program for a business but i have no idea how to create a database to hold the information and allow me to access it when needed
I am creating a medical record system using MS Access 2007. the finish product will be used for a small healthcare which has only one available pc for now i ve done all required tables and some queries. What I really want to do is to design the forms where user can access information using VB 2010. I ve read tutorials online about how to connect dataabase to vb and successfully did that.
I have connection to the Access database in my Visual Studio 2008 solution. Now the problem I am having is when I enter the information on to the form how is it suppose to transmit it to Access? I am sorry to be a pest, but I did not want to take this class eventhough it is required. I only have a few weeks left of class. I have tried looking at a lot of tutorials but it seems to be just repeating the same thing over and over. I wish there was a Visual Basic for dummies that can be accessed on line
I've been scrambling my brain to figure out how to access my FTP server thing to get a list of text files in a folder and to edit the contents of those files online.
I've got labels on my form using the following "Shift1Time1Label" to "Shift1Time8Label".I'm trying to get information from a access database and change the text of the labels.I'm getting the information, but having an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on the directcast to the label....
I am at a stand still on this one. I know how to connect and add to the database, I just don't know how to retrieve the information so that a user can see it! If anyone could help me with code or another example.
I have been requested to implement a login form into a friend's Visual Basic .NET application. He specifically requested that I should do this using LINQ to compare the input to a table in an Access database. I don't really know why he imposed these restrictions, but who am I to judge? However, the problem is I am not overly familiar with VB .NET, or LINQ.
The program is currently trying to pull information from three different database tables and compiling the information onto one screen, to do this i am using three different connections and a function to handle the data at each stage. The issue is as my code hits PageLoadStage of "2" and runs the QueryDatabase() Function i am encountering an error of: "OleDB exception unhandled: No value given for one or more of the required parameters." This occurs on line 15 of the first code snippet. Can anyone explain this and/or identify any code issues if that is the cause.
