View 2 RepliesI'm creating a On-Screen keyboard for my application, and it supports skins as well.
Here's what I'm doing with the skins, I have a folder which contains some images and a xml file which maps the images to the keyboard, I want to be able to have the folder as a zip file like in Office 2007 (.docx) and iPhone firmwares (.ipsw), I know I can simply zip the folder and change the extension, what I need to know is how to read the files in the code.
I've successfully implemented OpenXML that takes the bookmarks within a document and replaces them. Unfortunately it only works with .docx and from what I understand .doc is not compatible with the OpenXML format. So, what I'm wondering is if I can take that WordprocessingDocument and convert it to a .doc when users try and download it.

View 6 RepliesI'm developing a small application that creates Excel files with user details. I'm developing this in vb.net 2008 express edition under Windows XP SP2 and with Office 2003.My target PC is running Windows Vista. I'm able to run my program without any problem and even the Excel files get created without any problem on this PC.However, the problem is when I try to open one of these created files in Vista, I get a message like below:
"The file you are trying to open, "TestMe.xls", is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?" If I click yes, it opens up properly. This is a headache as it opens up in my developing PC without any hassle. I'm sure its something to do with the Excel reference I've made in my PC (which is running Office 2003).How best can I save this file so it opens up in Excel 2007 without the above message.

I have a software that writes data to Excel sheet. I'm using Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library for this. Everything is working fine so far, but apparently the drivers require Microsoft Office installed onto the computer.
Is there a way to write data to Excel format without having Microsoft Office installed?
I am looking for a regular expression that can convert my font tags (only with size and colour attributes) into span tags with the relevant inline css. This will be done in VB.NET if that helps at all.I also need a regular expression to go the other way as well.To elaborate below is an example of the conversion I am looking for:
<font size="10">some text</font>
To then become:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
So converting the tag and putting a "px" at the end of whatever the font size is (I don't need to change/convert the font size, just stick px at the end).The regular expression needs to cope with a font tag that only has a size attribute, only a color attribute, or both:
<font size="10">some text</font>
<font color="#000000">some text</font>
[code]....
I also need another regular expression to do the opposite conversion. So for example:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
Will become:
<font size="10">some text</font>
As before converting the tag but this time removing the "px", I don't need to worry about changing the font size.Again this will also need to cope with the size styling, font styling, and a combination of both:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
<span style="color:#000000;">some text</span>

I am extracting basic HTML & text from CDATA tags in an XML file and then displaying them on a web-page.The text also appears in a rich-text editor so it can be edited/translated, and then saved back into a new XML file. The XML is then going to be read by a flash file, hence the need to use old-fashioned HTML.
The reason I want to convert this code is mainly for display purposes. In order to show the text sizes correctly and for it to work with my rich text editor they need to be converted to XHTML/inline CSS. The rich text editor will also generate XHTML/inline CSS that I need to convert 'back' to standard HTML before it is saved in the XML file.I know the temptation will be to tell me a number of different ways to set up my code to do what I want but there are so many other permutations I haven't even mentioned which have forced me down this route, so literally all I want to do is convert a string containing standard HTML to XHTML/inline CSS, and then the same but the other way round.
i have a from with a treeview and a webbrowser control and three buttons. i want the back button to load the previous viewed html file from myresources and the same but opposite for forward?... also how can i and where can i link my external css to my program like my.resources so when i export the program for installing on another machine it still works? and one more thing... how can i intergrate/embed the webbrowser control into my program because as i believe it uses internet explorer and if someone installs my program onto their computer and they have un-installed ie and use firefox it won't work?

View 2 RepliesI am a one man dev shop and need some outside opinions on how to approach this project.
I need to create a "post office" program that will send html emails thru the system.net.mail framework.
For each job submitted to the postoffice the app would need to read a user created html email string from the database, read a string of email addresses to send to and send out the emails based on a set processing time.
The first step would be to parse out the email addresses to find out how many emails it needs to send out and determine how many it would need to send per minute to complete the job in 20 minutes tops. I.e. if 1000 email addresses are submitted per job it would determine that it needs to send 50 emails per minute to complete the job.
The part I am stuck on is how I should queue the emails. If the app determines it needs to send 50 a minute should I only load up the first 50 on a timer event then get the next 50 queued up for the next timer tick? Or would it be better to load up all 1000 in a loop and build in some kind of wait time after it sends the first 50?
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

Please suggest the best option I can use so that I can leverage all best practices for this porting.
