View 2 RepliesI'm trying to send an image over TCP... I believe I'm sending the image correctly, but how do I receive the image?
Here's my code in sending the image (To shorten the code, I didn't show how the image is created).
Code:
Dim tmpImage As System.Drawing.Bitmap
'client is the connected Net.Sockets.TcpClient
tmpImage.Save(client.GetStream(), System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp)

i am creating a web browser using microsoft vb.net 2008 and i want to save all images only displaying on any web page in my browser. i have added check box to save images. browser.PNG when i click on check box , the browser will prompt to save only images files on web page.
View 9 RepliesI am making futile attempts to get the DataGridView control in a Windows Form to disply several rows of images. The images are all contained on the local disk. The names of the image files (all .JPG or .GIF files) are taken from an XML file. The XML is not the issue, since some of of the images actually appear.
The control has three DataGridViewImageColumn objects. Each column is set up to display a file called Blank.gif which is a transparent GIF containing a single pixel. Later, during the form's Load event, I replace each cell's Value property with the image that the XML file says should be in the column. The XML file contains the name of the file, and I use the System.Drawing.Image.FromFile() method to create the image object from the file name.
The behavior I am experiencing is that that only the very last row of images is properly displayed. The rows above it display the Blank.gif file as if they had never been assigned their intended images. If I change the code so that it will only iterate through three images (one row), all the images show up in the grid. If I then change the code so that six images are processed, only the second row of images is diplayed, and the first row shows only the Blank.gif file's image content. If I change the code to process nine images, the first six show up as blank, and the last three in the final row are properly displayed.
I have lost a considerable amount of my little remaining hair trying to fix this problem to no avail.
The code is as follows:
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Xml

I'm currently attempting a project where I need to display a series of images from a database, in thumbnail form, then fullscreen when they are selected. Next/Back arrows will be used to navigate through different pages of images. These images will be across a number of categories each one with a different table in the database. It is very important that the user can change the images in the database.
Rather than have a number of different pages and each image designated to a picturebox, I was wondering how I could make it so the program just displays the next 6-8 images from the database in the same picture boxes, giving a message when the it reaches EOF, This way the number and order of the pictures can be changed just by changing the database.
I have a listbox displaying information about different workstations detected on a local network. Each line in the listbox is a different device. I would like, if possible, to display images on the end of each line (A green dot for one rule, a red dot for another, etc).
I have the images of the 'dots' as very small gif files.
i manage to display the table but my imgcol that contain image only display a box of x.. in my database column for the image, i put this.

I need to send up to to selected images (such as an apple) to pictureboxe's on a results page. at the moment I'm using global variables to attempt to display the images like this:
Me.pbItem1.Image = New Bitmap("images\" & gstItem1 & ".jpg")
Me.pbItem2.Image = New Bitmap("images\" & gstItem2 & ".jpg")
I get a directorynotfoundexception 'Could not find a part of the path '\images\apple.jpg' error. I'm new to VB and think this must have something to do with the default path or something.
I would like to parse through and display and picture and description for each 'item' in an XML file. I can't figure out the image part, and I've only been able to concatenate the 'description' to display it:
[Code]...
I'm at the right elements in the tree; I can display the first picture, and I've been able to access all of the 'description' elements. But I need to have each 'item' element display together.
I'm having a problem with displaying JPEG images in a RichTextBox. When I insert a JPEG image into a RTB it automatically gets converted to a wmetafile8 and displays correctly - however, if i insert a JPEG image into file via another method (currently using the web) it get saved as a jpegblip (as you would expect) but the RTB will not display it. Opening the rtf document in Word displays the image correctly.I have tried this with png and gif files also but none of the images will display unless they are wmetafiles. Is this a limitation with the RichTextBox or is there another reason?
View 3 RepliesI've written some code to get an image file from a OpenFileDialog, and then offset the X position of the image by -50, and then display that offset image in a panel. But for some reason, it is displaying the image twice inside that panel. Could someone please tell me how to get it to only display the offset image in the panel? I'm sure it's something simple, but I'm wracking my brain with this one.
If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Dim Bitmap As New Bitmap(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
Dim Graphic As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(Bitmap)

I am using Visual Basic 2008 for a Windows Form application. I have a PictureBox on the form that I need to display a series of 12 JPG files, one every four seconds. For the life of me, I cannot seem to figure out how to get the Timer control and its Click event to work.
In pseudo code, I need something as simple as the following:
1. show JPG #1 in picture box
2. 4 second delay
3. show JPG #2 in picture box
4. 4 second delay
etc.
I have a Timer on the Form set with Interval = 4000. I have a PictureBox. I have all the images in the Project. I am embarrassed to say that I have spent 4-5 hours searching the Web for sample code or something helpful, but am still stuck.
All the elements are there. It's just a matter of understanding how to pause the image displayed in the picturebox for 4 seconds before moving onto the next image in the series.
I need to display images when I press a key on the keyboard. I have a form with a textbox and a label on it. When I type a letter in the textbox it appears on the label. I got that part to work. But now I want to display a image in the label when I press a key on the keyboard. I have found some images on the internet that I want to display when I press a key on the keyboard. For example when I type the letter A in the textbox instead of A appearing I want an image of an apple to appear, or if I type the letter B a banana would appear, or if I type the letter D a dog would appear. I have been searching on how to this I came across the keyboard event such as the keypress event. Can I use a keypress event of the textbox to do this. Can I assign a certain image to a certain key on the keyboard, and have that image display whenever I press that key.

The &H30D? i know its a hexadecimal value and may represent a message but i cant find anything about why someone would need to use one, and not just "As Integer = 703". I've found nothing in the VB.NET library or windows messages/functions docs.
For my next project i'll have to create a TCP or UDP server based application. I know how to program a server but i am interested on the limitations of such servers.
how many connections a server may be able to handle at the same time. I suspect that this limitation is based on the type of transfer and how much data or how often it is send to the server.
I also read somewhere that a windows program is limited to 25 threads (connections) per core so if i would have a quad core i can have a maximum of 99 connections granted that the server itself is also a thread. Is that correct?
If the above is correct i wonder how to handle let's say 200 users at the same time. There must be some form / way to handle bigger request loads.
We have a server in the building that we can poll for barometric pressure using TCP. Another developer uses LabVIEW to do this, so it may be a little more straightforward for him.
Here are the instructions:[CODE...]
I have a real time application (by real time I mean physiological SLOW data) not ultra-fast gaming... and I would like to serve the parameters I read to an FTP server (website) so that the data can be reviewed remotely.
I have seen a few tools out there that will do the trick, but was wondering if anybody here has experience with this, and what path(s) you recommend I take to do this in the simplest of fashions.
I'm setting up a basic TCP client/server system and I'm wondering how the back-and-forth communication should ideally work. In my specific situation, the client will have to submit login credentials, and make specific requests from the server (the server interacts with a remote database).Here is what I would THINK to do.. and I'm just looking from input from other devs.
SERVER: Wait for new connections
CLIENT: Connects to server
CLIENT: Once connected, send login credentials with an instruction code.
[code]....
And another scenario.. let's say the client wants to request a log of what's happened on the server recently (the text of a console application window).
CLIENT: Send request message to server for recent log
i.e. $REQ$,105
SERVER: If instruction = $REQ$ and request id = 105, get window text and send to client
i.e. $DATA$,105,<data here>
CLIENT: If instruction = $DATA$ and data id = 105, parse data and display to user
The data being requested could be plain text, or a .net datatable translated into XML, etc. It could be a variety of things.
retriving the DNS server ip of my computer. But with my codes i only manage to the IP address of my computer.
Dim IPAddress As IPAddress = Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName).AddressList(1)
Dim strIPAddress As String = IPAddress.ToString
TextBox3.Text = strIPAddress
i want ask how i can send hex packet to server .i am able to connect IP and port [code] here we can see that for 3 hex 33 is used and for char "." 00 07 13 and many others are used and for its 0F used [code] it sends same Hex for each "." in packet but i want to send other values as there in original/so i want to create a byte to send from hex code/
View 2 RepliesI have been searching far and wide for knowledge regarding how to make a server program with a client program.Think like Msn ( Messenger ) You have the client and you send a message which is then send through the client to the server, and then to some other client (a friend might be ).I want to make a semilar program where ill make the server and the client myself, i just need a hint or two to get started.

Is there any way to detect if the DNS server is not responding for sure. That is because if I ping the server while my torrent downloads are in progress, I get a "Request timed out".
I have started to learn how to use the TcpListener class to create a server/client chat facility, But im having some issues as to how to perform this at the moment i have the following code for the server.

Client Accepted (I understand would most likely need a new thread for each client who is accepted, Once accepted , Return to the main loop to check for more clients.) No Client Connecting I understand that this may have to be done in a thread but ive not looked into using a seperate thread for this to infinitely run.

I am starting to develop a card game client for a CCG a friend of mine and I are creating.
I have 2 forms Client.vb and Hand.vb linked with a module.vb
In essence when the app starts up I see the client. I can then click the "Hand" button and the Hand Window is shown as well.
What my goal is is to have it so that when i hover over the card (picturebox) in my hand form that it displays a larger image of that card in the preview box (Another picture box) In Client.vb
I have everything working except when i actually mouse over the image in the hand form it creates an error:
Error:A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in CCG 2.0.exe
The code in the mouse hover event:
Code:
F1.PictureBox2.Image = F2.PictureBox1.Image
Im Almost certain im going about this the wrong way but I cant seem to figure out any other way...
PS.I have attached an image to demonstrate what Im trying to do...
I am trying to build a sort of basic server thing and I cannot seem to get the thing to work properly. I have a client and a server. The client sends a string, the server receives then replies. I cannot get the server to continue responding.
It works in one direction Client -> Server
But because the server is continuously listening the form becomes not responding, thus I cannot send messages from the server. Although it says that its not responding I know that it is just using all of the processing for listening because when I send something from the client the server responds, just the form is stuck because of the listener.
I recently set up an apache server in a small computer (its an ALIX board) and i need to download some files that are going to be stored in that machine. The web server is running and I can create a file called "moo.txt" and if i go to the web browser I can see its contents Now, I need to create a vb.net application to communicate with this machine and download that file So far I have tried the following
Code:
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Module Module1
[code]....
This gives me "error accessing site an exception occurred during a WebClient request"
I have been searching for a good code example that will place a small server program on my server and then allow me to use a client on my pc that will tell the server program to run a batch file on the server.
I thought this would be simple... I am finding it not that easy.
We have a server that users need to execute a command on however we do not want them to have login rights to the server so this will allow them to execute the batch file without having to log in.
Developing an application that will serve as an application server (Similar to 'Run Advertised Program' that is present in Windows Server). The downside to using Microsofts current system is that it a) requires Windows Server and b) Works only with systems setup in a proper Domain. I have a number of systems in my house and I'm fed up of downloading from the net or setting up network drives etc etc. I've tried using the code in a similar topic posted a few threads down, but it obviously doesn't support multiple client connections.
View 9 RepliesI am writing an application to grab attachments from messages in a particular folder in an Exchange server account and then process them. The processing of the attachments should be no problem, but what I don't know how to do is to connect to the Exchange server and access the messages.
What I would like to know is what references and imports I need, and how to access the various objects in the object model. I have been looking at CDO already, but I have had problems finding help on the Internet that is relevant to VB.NET.
For example, I'd like to know how to create the Exchange object, log in and navigate to the folder that has the relevant messages in it.
