I have created an application that uses the web cam to take a photo and put it to the imgaelist. Now i would like to save this photo to SQL db by converting the photo to binary anf then storing it in Db.
I want to be able to randomize what image the picture box displays, and I want to pick it from an Image list with the collection that I want to use. I'm trying to use a custom function so that it can be repeated.
I have been googling this and have not come along a working solution for an entire day. I don't know anything about binary data types (as I've never knowingly used them) and I'm trying to write a binary value that I see in the registry, to the registry. Now, all I see is the following [shown below]... and if I try to pass that as a string to the RegSetValueEx in the WinAPI and of course it errors out...
I do not know what 'numbers' I need to pass into the lpData As Any, argument of RegSetValueEx (i tried a bit array) in order for it to come out as the following [shown below] in the regedit. I really have no idea, and my tests to place random numbers in the bit array just produce corresponding random "figures" as visible in regedit that I do not understand how to 'tie' them together logically. here is the culprit!
I am trying to convert a string of binary into hex. I have tried several ways and none have worked. This is my latest try. The code runs but doesn't appear to do anything.
I'm using AxVLC to try to play a video from my.resources and I can't seem to convert the binary to a string for it to work...This is what I have so far - produces no errors, or results (nothing happens).
Okay here is the code I'm using to convert text to binary and then back to text for display.
Module convertbinary Public Function ConvertToText(ByVal BinText As String) Dim BinChar As String
[Code].....
What I'm trying to do is store a query string in a table cell. So I figured the best way would be to convert the query string to some binary format for storing and then when I pull it out of the database I would convert it back to a string of text.
Iam working in a project need converting a wave file to binary..converting a file of such format(wave) to binary text in asp.net? I need that cause i want to cut the original file to many files, and add additional parts of the same type to them and combine them together in a one file again..
I was given a school project in which I have to make a program that converts numbers between binary,decimal,octal and hexadecimal systems. I have figured out how to make a function to convert binary number to decimal number [code]With this code,a user can enter a number that isn't binary,and program will calculate it. How can I make that program doesn't calculate those numbers or doesn't accept anything else than 0 or 1? This is needed for other cases like octal and hexadecimal system.
Is there a way to convert byte values to binary so i can read the values from the bits themselves? I have some byte whose values are 00 09 and I'd like to convert the values to bits to be like this : 0000 0000 0000 1001. Then I'd like to read the value of first 2 bits and the remaining 14 bits separately.
I'm trying to wrap up a program I wrote in VB.NET and quick. I have a device that I am connected to through a serial port (COM4). It sent me 1056 binary bytes which I have stored in an array called newRecievedData. (see code below)
********** Start Code********* Dim numberOfBytesToRead As Integer numberOfBytesToRead = myComPort.BytesToRead Dim newRecievedData(numberOfBytesToRead - 1) As Byte
I want help emergency for a project i have, I have to make a program to do hamming codes, since now i have done the part for converting a character that the user enters in a textbox to binary.This binary now is displayed in a textbox. So now i want to save this binary to an array
I have a form in vb.net 2005 with a datagrid and picturebox, when I click an item in the datagrid dgProducts I want to display the Picture which is stored in an access database in binary format inside the picturebox pbProduct. This is the code I have inside the datagrid click:
pbProduct.Image = Nothing Dim x As Integer = dgProducts.CurrentRowIndex Dim dt As DataTable Dim drow As DataRow
[code]...
I have imported the system.io and system.data.oledb at class level and I hav generated this code from what I can find in forums online, but I get "Parameter is not valid" and no more help than that...
I've been trying to figure this out for hours now, and I've given up on trying to solve it myself. Basically what I need to do, is convert a "double octet" binary string, such as "11010011 01011101", into a byte or char type if possible.I use the following code to convert my Unicode text into binary:
Private Function ByteToStr(ByVal bt() As Byte) As String Dim st As New StringBuilder For Each byt As Byte In bt
[code]....
But that gives me weird results. The "Convert.FromBase64String" obviously isn't what I'm after. Any help would be great. If I can convert the "binary string" into a bytes or chars I can get it into a string.

i have a table in sql server with some fields set as Byte() (System.Byte[]) when i import them in my application to be used with linq they are converted in Binary (System.Data.Linq.Binary)why is that?is there a way to prevent this wrong translaton???if i update the database how can i update the classes that has been craeted in visual studio2008?
I've made a Access database of my CD collection I have lots of movies and I copy the picture of the original DVD from www.imdb.com into my database in a OLE field I can see the picture that's connected to the desired record just fine in access but now I'm working with Visual Basic express 2008 and I want to connect this Access database to my project. I can see the data just fine but not de OLE pictures I changed the properties of that picture into a picturebox in de datasource screen bu I don't see a picture (blank)
Iam having major difficulties handling a binary stream which I am trying to read and process in vb.net. The stream is coming in from an FTDI chip and should contain 64 8-bit values.An example of the stream is here
I need to get this into something that I can read (decimal or hex or 1s and 0s) in vb and I just don't know what to do - I tried using Asc() but it wasn't working and I know now that it can't work with characters higher than 127.
I am only pasting what I feel is relevant to this error but if you deem necessary I will paste the w hole code,software used- sqlserver 2005 express, VS 2008 express - language vb.netlittle extra info is added at the end of this code
I am currently using a binary formatter to serialize/deserialize some data objects. Some of the properties in the classes are Strings. When the data is written you can open the file with a text editor and can see the raw String data. Is there any way to encrypt the Strings or the entire object before it is serialized? I have looked at this thread here [URL] but the code is in C# and the free converters I tried for some reason did not like the code. This is the code I am using currently.
I have a VB.NET dll which pulls out binary data from and opens it as a pdf. It works fine if I create a file on the user's machine and then open that. What I want to do, however, is just open it in Adobe without creating the file on their machine first (there's customer data in the file and we don't want copies of it sitting around unecessarily).
It's possible in ASP.NET to just stream the data to a browser and open it in that without creating the file, but I can't find a similar methodology for doing that straight to Adobe. Does anyone know if this is even possible or do I have to create the file in order to have it open?
I have a serious problem reading that stuff, it seems I can't get it right.The registry key I want to retrieve looks like this: And this is the code i used:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim readValue = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue _[code].....
The problems is that it returns something like: "V???????=dQ???!u?1?" What the ____ is that anyway? So in reality it should be like "c3gm322dvf" or something like that.
I'm a beginner programmer, but this may not be a beginner program question. I would like to write a program in small basic or visual basic that reads data from a binary file. The data are formatted in hex and look like this:
