I've almost finished a binary clock, but I have one problem. The user should choose between two different backgrounds, named binary.jpg and binary 1600.jpg
Dim Bild1 As New Bitmap(Application.StartupPath & "/Bilder/binary1600.jpg")
Picturebox1.Image=Bild1
I get "Parameter is not valid" on the first line.
i have this code but it doesnt save in Application.StartupPath :
Public Class Form1
Private Property voice As SpVoice
Private Declare Function mciSendString Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "mciSendStringA" (ByVal lpstyCommand As String, ByVal lpstrReturnString As String, ByVal uReturnLength As Integer, ByVal hwndCallback As Integer) As Integer
[code]....
but if change the address like this one :
mciSendString("save recsound e:\rec-sound.wav", "", 0, 0)
it is saving... whats wrong with the code? and when i test the value of the wrong code (by msgbox), it says 295.the right code says 0.

I am new to working with SQL databases (and databases in general) so I do not have a lot of experience with how queries work and how I can practice them. When I was first learning xml and XPath, I found XPath Visualizer incredibly helpful after someone on stack overflow mentioned it to me.Due to this, I am wondering if a similar tool exists for SQL databases?Basically a tool that will allow me to connect to a database,enter queries and see somehow what the results would be like.
I have looked online a bit, however I have found relatively few options in terms of any utility that would do what I want, and that looks reliable.I will ultimately be writing an application to interact with an SQL 2008 server in vb.net, however for now I am just experimenting so I will know what I am doing when I actually want to create my application.So far I have managed to connect to the database using an OLE DB connection, but I am now looking for a way to experiement with queries without just querying and figuring out a way to interpret the results in my program. Basically I want to be able to remove the programming aspect of things so I can experiment with queries without needing to question anything in my code that is unrelated to the specific query.
I recently made an application which have some settings one of them a saving path
I want to make check if the saving path settings is available or not (drive)

I am looking for some advise, I currently have a VB.Net application using .NET frameworks 2 written in VS 2005. One of my clients wants to know if the application works with Unicode, at the moment I have not tested this and what I am looking for is some advise on how to do this e.g.
1) Does anything need to be added to my project e.g. code to allow this functionality. 2) Is there a way that I can easily check to see if my application can work with Unicode? 3) Advise on how other people test for this? I know it is a bit general, but as I have not done this before I am obviously trying to build my knowledge and get it right with regards to testing etc.

I'd like to create a simple application to determine the writing speed. In this application I want to view a line of text (may be more than one line) to the user to write it. And I want to select (higlight) the character the user pressed in my line and to move like a cursor to the next character (or to put underline under the current charater). How can I do that? and what is the object or component i must use to insert the text. Finally, if I want to make it multiple lines how to determine the enter key pressed by the user and how to move the cursor to the next line?

View 2 RepliesLately our network is having some speed issues at certain times of day, so what I'd like to do is make a little app that will test the network speed at certain intervals, like once an hour between certain servers etc and then write the results to a text file. Is VB 2008 cable of doing something like this?

I've had a search through a number of extremely useful articles on the forums, however rather than reinvent the wheel I thought I would ask if anyone already had what I am looking for..A simply little VB app that opens a session to a specific IP port and then writes to a test file everything it receives. If the connection drops, simply re-stablish it and keep listening for text to write to the file.

Probably a dumb question, but can you write a unit test project in one language to test against another project in a different language?I'd like to translate one of our VB assemblies into C#, but want to build unit tests to verify the results. I've tried to set a unit test project up to do this, but I can't seem to access the VB code within a unit test... I can't figure out if I'm just missing/doing something stupid, or it really isn't allowed.
