I am trying to read a visio diagram using vb6, however I am having trouble reading the structure of the shape when the stencil is not provided (i means its geometry for ex. polyline formula etc), the object model is not providing me with the a way to access the polyline formula

I am using this to copy tables in an Access database(2003). the questions I have are:
1. How can I make this more 'obejct oriented'?
2. How can I copy just the structure of the tables and not the data?
(Currently both are occuring)
Let's say I roll out version 1 of this project for many users. As time goes by I update the code, change the Access db strucutre here and there, and would like to roll out version 2.What is the best way to do this?Is there an easy way to get the differences between version 1 and version 2 of an access db?

I'm new to VB 2008 after having spent a long time with VB6, so I apologize if this is a stupid question. But I'd really like to have this straightened out.
Let's say I have a pretty large structure that has lots of properties.
Code:
Now say that I want an internal database with about 10 instances of this structure total, describing, say, 10 different products that a store sells. When these values are loaded from a database, they remain totally static. (However, they can be different each time a program loads)
Now say that I have a class. Each instance of this class is a type of that BaseProduct structure. Meaning, each instance of the class pertains to one of the 10 types of products that the store sells. However, this class has additional properties that pertain specifically to each instance, which are not static.
Code:
Now, the problem here is... If I have 200 different transactions, each one contains an instance of BaseProduct. BaseProduct is HUGE, and is largely redundant (only 10 types possible), so I think it's a little silly to include a whole copy of it with EVERY transaction. However, the Transaction class really needs information regarding the base product it pertains to. Is there a way to, instead of declaring a New BaseProduct in the Transaction class, to simply make one of the properties of the Transaction class a pointer to a BaseProduct variable?
In VB6, I would accomplish this by making a BaseProduct(10) array, and then giving each Transaction an ID number referring to an entry in that array. But in VB 2008, using class structure, this is impossible. I can't define the BaseProduct(10) array outside of a class in a namespace, and if I define it in the actual application's form, then the class loses modularity since it relies on the application that's using it.
I am trying to communicate with an external device and i am trying to send a byte array to the external device via sockets but i am always getting a response the message size is too small so i am not sure what i have done wrong. Between the data type there should be no alignment present and all numbers are represented in little endian format. The char array is not null terminated as mentioned in the protocol specifications.
I have to send data based on a struct that embeds 2 other struct. So here's my vb.net code for the struct used to convert to byte array and the sending part.

I am working through my Visual Basic Book 2010 book and came across this Program example:Create 3 classes that inherit from a base class named Shape. The Shape class has an instance variable that is the name of the shape and also a CalcArea() function that must be overridden by each subclass. You will need to create the following 3 classes and use the formulas provided to calculate the areas.
Square � Area = sideLength * sideLength
Circle � Area = pi * radius * radius (use Math.Pi for the value of pi)
Triangle � Area = � * base * height
Each subclass should have a constructor that you use to set the name and the attributes required to calculate the area with. Each subclass should also override the CalcArea() function that is provided in the base class Shape. They will also need to implement the toString() method that will print out the shape name, any attributes (ex: sideLength), and the area.It also includes the Shape base class. You will need to add the 3 subclasses and add the appropriate code.
i'm working on a simple 2d drawing application that allows you to draw, move, rotate and resize shapes such as lines, rectangles, ellipses, polygons and so on. My code for resizing shapes works fine, but only for unrotated shapes. Now i've changed the code to work also with rotation but i have still some problems, for example:
I create a rectangle at a specified location (the upper-left corner of the rectangle) and with a rotation around the location. With my code i can only to resize this shape using the top-left, the middle-right, the bottom-right and the bottom-center hot spots. The problem is when i try to resize the rectangle using the middle left hot spot or the other ones. As you can see in this images the problem is to calculate the new location that the rectangle should have after the resize operation.

I want to create some custom shapes for MS Office which we can use in house.
For example I want to create a shape named "carton box" which have three - four default places where user can add some text. It is same as other shapes or I would say just like shapes (line, flowchart, arrow etc) in MS office 2007.
Is there any way to create and reuse such a new objects, also if user don't have these shape in their toolbox and get a document which includes these shapes; he should be able to see it (defiantly in read only).
Background - I am a .NET developer and also having small knowedge of MS office development in .NET.
