View 1 RepliesThis is my first time working with VB, though I've been working with VBA for a couple years now to automate office routines at my work. At my last job, I saved about 3 hours a day with my automations, and at my current job, I'm shooting for about the same. The problem is, though I have a high affinity for computers and technology, I never studied to be a programmer, and so I really can only tweak code I find online, and then eventually build up enough of my own subroutines to accomplish the tasks at hand. This is why I'm posting here on this forum, I've reached my wits end for what I imagine is a relatively simple problem. This was initially written in VB 6, but I imported and converted it with Visual Studio 2008, and it runs fine. This demo code is set to populate a PDFwith some sample string text. What I want to do is to replace the string text with a reference to data in either an Access or SQL database - I prefer Access, but either will work. Here is a sample of the demo code I'm working with:
[code]...
On this last line, I want to replace the "1" sting text with a reference to a temporary 1-row table I'll be generating from an Access Query, with Field Names to match the Form Field names of the PDF, So I've setup an Access DB with the following configuration (in reference to the path, I'm using Vista x64):
[code]...
I have also imported this table as a dataset (my understanding is that the import into Visual Studio 2008 makes it a typed dataset?) so either referencing the access DB directly or the imported Dataset should work. I can also setup the Access DB as a SQL DB instead if it would make it easier. Now, if I was programming in VBA, I might do something like this:

I have to create a form that I enter the price of gas each month over a year. I enter the price in a text box and click the enter button to send the price to a list box immediatley and use an array. I have the following code but I don't think it's working with the array correctly as it will let me enter the information but doesn't stop letting me enter after the 12 prices. I am really having a hard time trying to figure out how to set up this input for an array and make it all work.

Using VB 2008:Situation: A Form1.BackgroundWorker calls a Form1.subroutine. That sub starts a Form1.Timer with Me.tmrOK_BlinkForm.Enabled = True...fires Timer code in event: Public Shared Sub tmrOK_BlinkForm_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tmrOK_BlinkForm.Tick
Form3.Visible = True
Form3.Label1.Text = gNowButtonDispText
Form3.BackColor = Color.White
Form3.Refresh()

There must be a way to do this, I just need the correct BackgroundWorker Syntax send Stop commad to Form1.Timer from Form3.Click_event...all inside a Form1.BackgroundWorker thread started in Form1.

This problem I guess is easy to solve for an "RegEx" master :P
My string look like this:
"name":"stefanACM".id...

"name":"test2".id...
So I need RegEx to get only names from sting (stefanACM,test1,test2). That means I need RegEx to find string between "name":" and ".id
i'm stuck on something so easy, i've googled, tired various methods but cant get it to work. Imagine if you can, i have an array (set as a string type) but the second slot holds a numebr that i want, e.g. 2333.
So to grab it i use the following code, however as my sport array is set to a string it wont allow it. Like i said i have tried a few ways but nothing works. Such a stupid and simple situation. I'm much much better with actionscript surely its just a string to int conversion?

View 3 RepliesI recently bought a barcode scanner for God knows what reason, just to play around and now it seems that its easy to sort out everything at house with it (e.g. Disc Collection). So I decided that I need a special program for it to get sorted with the collection. I am new to Visual Basic, but used to do programs with Java 6 years ago, but it doesn't seem to be any similar to each other. Basically I have a Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 and here is what I want to do:I have Form1 which contains of a textbox and a button (which will be Enter further), a textbox for total amount spent (which has to be calculated from Form2 and a nice background. I also have a Form2 in the same project, which contains 3 textboxes (Title, Price and the barcode numbers)So my problems are: As I said there are just 3 textboxes in Form2. Is it possible to copy Form2 three times on Form1 with different variables in text boxes? For example Form2 1st copy will have one Title in textbox, Form2 2nd copy will have another Title in textbox and etc. The Titles are in excel (.xls) file.That is a problem further, but my problem for now is how to make barcode scanner working. The barcode scanner basically reads barcode and inputs numbers in a textfield and automatically presses enter.As I am new, I do not know how to make this work. When I launch the program the textbox has to be selected rightaway, so that I do not have to use mouse. As it is selected I read the barcode and the numbers are in the textbox right away and Enter key is pressed (but I did not assign OK button with a Enter key and I cannot output anything now). So how do I assign the button with Enter key and the textbox? Now as the button is pressed (OR ENTER KEY is pressed) The text in the textbox has to be selected again (so that I can input a new barcode) and Form2 has to be called on a certain place of the screen (e.g. 200x100px is the starting location).
Now when the Form2 was called it read the data from Excel spreadsheet and now the textfield in Form1 is ready to input new barcode. As new barcode was read the same situation is happening, but now the Form2 is copied into a new place with new parameters (e.g. 300x100px is the starting point).Same for the third time, but on 400x100px.For the fourth time the Form2 is not copied again. However the parameters of the third copy are getting the new data. Parameters of the third one are going to the second copy, second copy to the first one and the first one is stored in a text file or somewhere else to use further. (I wanted to use up and down buttons to search for what I have scanned)
