I have a VB.NET (VS2010) Class Library project containing a control. It's exposed as a COM/ActiveX component so it can be embedded within HTML/Internet Explorer.
[Code]...
I've developerd an ActiveX Control using VB6. I've also developed its installer .cab package for web. A simple html code is given below that explain how i use that package in html page
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>MyAcrivexControl.CAB</TITLE>
[CODE]...
<!-- If any of the controls on this page require licensing, you must create a license package file. Run LPK_TOOL.EXE to create the required LPK file. LPK_TOOL.EXE can be found on the ActiveX SDK, [URL]. If you have the Visual Basic 6.0 CD, it can also be found in the ToolsLPK_TOOL directory.
The following is an example of the Object tag:
<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:5220cb21-c88d-11cf-b347-00aa00a28331">
<PARAM NAME="LPKPath" VALUE="LPKfilename.LPK">
</OBJECT>
[CODE]...
In ideal situation whenever i run this page by typing url like [URL]. it should ask me for download and install the control, but it didn't.
i compiled 1 control in vb6. now i'm trying use it in vb2010, but i recive 2 warnings:
"Warning1A reference was created to embedded interop assembly 'stdole' because of an indirect reference to that assembly from assembly 'AxInterop.Sprite'. Consider changing the 'Embed Interop Types' property on either assembly.WindowsApplication1" and "Warning2 reference was created to embedded interop assembly 'stdole' because of an indirect reference to that assembly from assembly 'Interop.Sprite'. Consider changing the 'Embed Interop Types' property on either assembly.WindowsApplication1 "why these warnings? (i have sure that in vb6 don't give me any errors)
I am using a Webbrowser control to access the elements in an HTML page which contains a JavaScript link which when clicked, adds extra content to the page. This works fine in IE 7 and Firefox.I then want to access this extra content in my program. Having found the HTML element containing the link, I tried element.InvokeMember("click"). I have used this successfully with a submit-type link to login to the web site, but cannot get it to work with the JavaScript link. I also tried setting the focus to the link element and using SendKeys to send the ENTER key, but all to no avail. Nothing seems to happen. I don't see the extra content produced by the JavaScript, nor do I get an error.Here is an extract from the HTML, showing the relevant (I hope) code:

View 4 RepliesI asked a question earlier asking how to use the Windows 7 taskbar progress bar without the .dll files, but I realized that in VS2010 you can embed a .dll into your application. I set this option to embed to true, but when trying to use the code for said .dll, I get this error: Interop type "Windows7ProgressBar" cannot be embedded. Use the application interface instead.

Since the url got a maximum length 256, i need to use <param /> tag to help me pass values and also get values from aspx.
(the numbers of param is not fix)
I've been searching days for the example how to get this done.
i am trying to write the application which saves the web page in html format on local path. But this aspx page contains the 3 classic asp pages,
sample code
Dim myWebClient As New WebClient Dim cred As New NetworkCredential("***removed***", "***removed***")

[URL] this page contains the asp pages with 2 differnt tab on it and i need those tab data too on my html page.
So I asked a question on this forum [URL]..It will work fine. Study the Graphics class...it already knows how to draw everything, but Windows does not understand PDF files, that's why Adobe Reader is there. FYI, Office understands PDF format, but...you need to own Office to use it.
PDF format is documented, and supported by 3rd party software. RTF is already understood by Windows RichText controls, and DOCX is a derivative of RTF type embedded formatting.My question is about ..... "DOCX is a derivative of RTF type embedded formatting" what does this mean?
Does this mean if I read the docx file (like i would any other file) I can somehow put this in a rich text box and it will have all of the formatting in it? Because I am not seeing how that happens. I am not seeing what I expected. So is there a way to read a docx file and put it into a richtextbox?
In this section, I am trying to manually add in tabs and line spaces so the string is formatted when displayed via the pre tag. But this does not work.[code].Is it possible to display HTML as text on your page in a formatted manner? For example, it should contain white spaces, tabs etc etc for readability purposes:From another question, I have learned how to display HTML as text as follows:[code]
View 4 RepliesI know how to open local .msg files in webbrowser in html format.The problem is when the .msg has embedded pictures, the only thing that appears is a blank space ("picture not found") where it is supposed to be.If I open the .msg file in Outlook, I see the images correctly, but in my program I can't see embedded pictures.

But Email shows the inline pictures as attachments. what could be the reason?
The important thing is that this is not happening all the time. if we send 5 to 10 times we get the expected result for 2 or 3 times.
i explored some of the forums , got answers like 'changing the settings, security settings of the office outlook. that too is not succeeded.

I have a asp.net page that generates a report. For better or for worse, the entire thing is generated using nested tables. I am able to export the page to excel, however I lose all my formatting (can't set column widths, etc). Is there a way to handle this? I'm open to adding any goofy MS Office -specific tags that are required to the html side of it.If this isn't feasible and if anyone has any other ideas, the requirement is that users need a report that:
a) They can manually touch up with some personalization / area-specific data
b) Needs to be hide/show columns based on user's location
c) Needs to run from the web site.
I have an Emailer in my Application and it has a richtextbox which the user can add fancy colours, font, pics etc... but when I send the email it doesn't send it as HTML. Is there a property in the richtextbox that lets me access the HTML code so that the email is sent as HTML and not just plain text. I need to be sending the emails as it appears in the richtextbox.
I am using the following code
Dim moApp As Outlook.Application
Dim oEmail As Outlook.MailItem
moApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
oEmail = moApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)

And I get the following email Without HTML. Please look at the Emailer to see that it is formatted. So I need to send the content of the Emailer as HTML via outlook.
I have a form which contains an Image control. What I am trying to do is find a way to adjust an image according to the size of the control and have the image look normal no matter how I adjust the Image control.

View 1 RepliesI created an ActiveX Control in ATL, which I can succesfully use in for instance Internet Explorer. When I want to put that object in a VB.NET (2003) app, I get some problems.
First I 'Import' the control, using Visual Studio, so there are COM Interop DLLs created. Then I insert the control in the toolbox and drag/drop on a form. The control is succesfully created.
However, when I run the VBApp, it crashes. The debugger tells me that it gets a 'Class Not Registered' error.

View 7 RepliesWorking on getting a legacy app up and running again for work. I'm getting an error at run time that I can't create an activeX control. The suspect call is

I did a bit of googling and found that SQLDMO should be in a SQLDMO.dll. I've got that DLL referenced in my project but it is still failing.
I have a legacy VB6 ActiveX control used in IE to provide control of a parallel-port device from a browser application. I wrote this thing about five years ago; It's a pretty simple control, and it doesn't require a lot of maintenance. However, I've noticed that running the VB6 tools is becoming more and more painful over time, so I'm looking at the possibility of migrating this code to VB.net 2008.This thing is super-simple. It implements IObjectSafety and exposes a single public method, which we call using Javascript. The control has no UI other than a single box with a caption that displays its name and version number-- useful for troubleshooting deployment issues.
How would I create the equivalent in .net? Am I creating an applet? Or a .net Assembly? Any gotchas to look for as I try to make this transition?(I should make it clear here that I'm not either a VB6 programmer or a .net developer-- I've dabbled in this stuff but it isn't my area of expertise, so go easy on me).
I am using the WebBrowser control in Rockwell Automation's Factory Talk SE v. 6.0 to display a PDF file. Within the "Display_AnimationStart" routine, I call the function below to send a ctrl+h to the system to hide the toolbars, which has proven to be quite unreliable.
Is there a more direct, object-specific way to hide the browser's toolbars other than the SendKeys method?
Private Sub LoadPDF(Filepath As String)
SendKeys "^h", True
Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate2 (Filepath)
End Sub
I'm developing in VS2005 on WS 2008 and I've created a windows application containing the webbrowser control.I am trying to run a page containing an activex control, the download prompt for the cab file appears even though the control is installed and running in IE on this machine.Also if I navigate to a site containing Flash, the content is not shown as if Flash is not installed, but it is and again runs fine in IE
View 1 RepliesI have the need to embed what I want to call an ActiveX component into a webpage on my intranet. The reason I want to do this is, I'd like to check if a USB security token is inserted on the end users PC.
My question is: what do I need to be researching to accomplish creating a control which can be embedded into Internet Explorer when programming in VB.NET?
I am developing an application in Visual Basic under Visual Studio 2008 Professional. As part of this application I am using a third-party ActiveX control (.ocx file). After building the installer (.msi file) using the deployment tools in Visual Studio, I tested it on a clean system. The install appeared to run successfully--folders are created, files are copied, and the .ocx is registered. However, when I tried to run the application I received an error telling me "You must have a license to use this ActiveX control." This would be expected on the development machine, but should not happen on the client system, i.e., in the runtime environment.
On previous builds of the application, I did not receive this error. Besides updates to the application itself (the part I created, that is), I was using NSIS to create the installer, rather than the tools in Visual Studio. The application cannot run without the .ocx in question, so this error is a show-stopper.
i am creating an activeX control... in this control i want to manage what the tab key does. i may a user interface that allows tabs in the textbox or it might move the user to the next screen. i have everything working in the IDE, but when my activeX is loaded into the 3rd party application the tabs no longer trigger the key down event. i assume this is because the parent application has tab stops is there a way on a control by control basis to stop the normal execution of tabs?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to embed an activex control (.ocx) created using VB6.0. It's a bare bones usercontrol with no extra code, just for testing purposes. But when I embed this control in one of our windows forms in our legacy development environment (Gupta Centura V3.1), running as an MDI child in an MDI context, the main menu bar of our runtime MDI disappears.
