Create A Knowledge Base For My Company Using Program?
Oct 17, 2011
I am new bee in Visual basic and coding stuff. I am planning to create a knowledge base for my company. Can someone suggest me how to proceed. I have some ideas of creating it but really don't know how to move on.I already have some word files and pdf files where I have some troubleshooting steps and solutions, so i would like to create a search engine which searches the exact word file or a pdf file to show the result.
To make it simple just like google search engine. If I type something like "How to configure a network printer?" I should get the result of the word document or pdf file which has printer configuration steps.

I have an engineering firm and our website was built using Visual Studio 2010 / asp.net 4.0 / VB. Recently, a client (GM) requested that we have a knowledge base where they can input their questions, and we can answer 'em. Kind of like a FAQ, or a Lessons Learned type of thing. But it'll require that they'll be able to log in and ask their own questions.
For instance: Q: How would I incorporate multiple machine vision systems into a bead detection application?A: You would need to use a software such as PPT and have multiple fixtures in order to assimilate the cameras accordingly.
I'm terrible at databases; I can basically run an SQL query, and that's about it! lol. And I'm not a programmer by trade. Can I do this without a database? Can anyone guide me in the right direction here? I mean, is there something out there that's open-source, or at least something that's easy to implement?

I am trying to create an application that will login our company's intranet portal via a webpage. The webpage has a single frame in it that loads a secure(https) login form. After logging in, the application will need to read and send xml to and from the portal. I have been digging around and have seen a few different ways of submitting the login information from the program to the site, however, I have not gotten any of them to work. From what I can tell it is difficult to change the values of input boxes that are inside a frame. Am I accurate on this? There will be a large amount of data transfer between the app and the portal so I will need something lightweight but I have enough room that I would rather not reinvent the http/web-browser wheel if at all possible. The reason I say that is because I have read that some objects that handle web pages are very resource hungry. I have no preference on the .net frameworks as this is the area of VB thats kinda confusing. What I am looking for is either a point or violent shove in the right direction.

I need to make a program for a fake/hypothetical company.The "company's" pricing is based on the number of days of the rental as detailed below; note that all time beyond a half day is counted at the full day or weekly rate. In addition, they offer insurance for their vehicles at a daily rate; insurance is mandatory for half-day rentals, and is only available at the full-day rate. The charge rates are as follows:
Half Day $20.00
Full Day $35.00
Weekly (7 days or more) $32.00 / day
Insurance $5.00 / day
And 8% sales tax has to be added on.

I'm trying to create a password change form for my company's vendors. There are a couple of scenarios I could encounter doing this:
1 - User enters invalid current password
2 - New passwords do not match
3 - User's account is locked
4 - User cannot authenticate because password is expired
It's case 4 that I'm struggling with, because their is no way for me to take the password the user entered and verify it against active directory without getting an error.

I've created a Windows Form app in VB however I've decided the format is best suited to a Wizard style app. I've read a bit about creating wizards however I was hoping VS 2010 had a wizard to create wizards :) From what I've read there is a lot of coding to be done to create a simple wizard. Am I wrong ? Perhaps there is a third party app which generates the base wizard code?

Well this is a re-post now as nobody replied in the gaming section, and i believe this question could go as a normal VB question, therefore I'm asking in this category instead.I have decided to pick up on programming and want to make a text based RPG Game i will "upgrade" as my programming knowledge grows.I got some ideas that i think i should use, but i want you guys' opinions on it.I assume I'll use different classes for each monster, which will have properties.Should those monsters then be inside a list of all possible monsters, or would i have a monster class which i would use and generate the enemies when needed? And would i use the same approach on items and character stats?

I have a tab (created in the form developer) that contains about a dozen controls. I need to be able to clone this tab w/all controls. I have no problem creating the forms. However, the controls don't copy. This is true whether I create the new tab with a string:
TabPages.Add(MO.Name)Or with a tab object assigned to the base form:
Dim NewTab As New TabPage
NewTab = MyBaseTabPage
TabPages.Add(NewTab)
In either case, my first tab has everything it should have the other tabs have, the other tabs have only the tab name.Basically, I want to be able to clone my base tab into n number of tabs.

I need to write a program that uses constants to establish the base pay, the quota, and the commission rate. The Pay menu item calculates and displays the commission and the total pay for that person. However, if there is no commission, do not display the commission amount (do not display a zero-commission amount).
Write a function procedure to calculate the commission. The function must compare sales to the quota. when the sales are equal to or greater than the quota, calculate the commission by multiplying sales by the commission rate. Format the dollar amounts to two decimal places; do not display a dollar sign.
The summary menu item displays a message box that holds total sales, total commission, and total pay for all salesperson. Display the number with two decimal places and dollar signs.
the Clear menu item clears the name, sales, and pay for the current employee and then resets the focus.
The Color and Font menu items should change the color and font of the information displayed in the total pay text box. Use a message box to display the program name and your name as programmer for the about option on the Help menu.
[code...]
So the issue is when I push calculate and summary, the total sales comes up, but not the total commission or total pay. Also, the color only changes to blue and that is it. I am not sure how to get the color or the font menu choices to be able to be choosen by the user. Is that possibile?

I'm looking for a decimal to alphanumeric number base converter library in Visual Basic that does not use recursion. [url]...
which includes a demo app but discovered that it uses recursion. The problem with it using recursion became apparent when I attempted to integrate the library into my own Visual Studio Express 2010 Visual Basic project: I got a stack overflow exception.
Now I could consider increasing the size memory allocated for the stack but it might be hard to determine what this would be, given that the recursion depth might vary depending on the value to be converted.

I've been creating short test apps repeatedly to try to understand some of the concepts in VB.NET.For the most part it has been illuminating.I read Bucky's .NET knowlegebase tutorial on passing objects as parameters to newly created forms. He shows how to create a new class that inherits from the base form class and define a New() method with parameters Extending the concept I thought about doing the same thing with a form that was created at design-time (In this case Form2).

Base class has one field to hold numeric balance value. With 2 methods that accept arguments for adding and subtracting the new input calculating new balance. Sub class has four fields dates, transaction, memo and amount.I have a deposit form, and withdraw form. Each time one transaction is entered it creates an object with sub class fields, then adds to the account collection. My problem is not understanding how to call the deposit/withdraw method and pass the current transaction amount back to the base class to alculate the new balance. Does anyone have any links to information/tutorials on how to perform something like this? As you can see with my code I have tried various different approaches without any success.

Since a month, i'm working for a big company in France. They asked me to make a application manage their plannings. I devellopped something not so bad using their existant Access database and VB.net.The problem is that in a few months, the application will maybe be used by 70 workers while today only 10 use it.So i did a lot of researches, and i read that Access could not support more that 20 connection in the same time.Firts, is that true ? What do I risk with an Access database for 70 workers ?And then, what do you think of MySQL in my case ? The application won't be connect on internet, only on intranet. I took a very long time to connect my application to MySQL, but now i don't know how to connect the application in intranet.In fact i'm a bit lost with the choice of my SGDB.

I currently have an internal system that I need to link up to an API offered by a company. I am not looking for hand-holding on this, I really need to understand where and how to get started really.
Here is the developer resource for the API I am looking to work with:[URL]..Further, my systems are currently in ASP/ASP.NET & SQL, and I'm familiar with VB so I would rather stay that direction instead of C#.

I am getting this error when trying to connect to the database which comes with Sage Line 50. It doesn't matter what table i try to look at i get this error when i try to create a datagridview. The near 'COMPANY' bit is the name of the table not one of its fields. Is this going to be something wrong with the SAGE ODBC (wouldn't surprise me) or does something need changing?

I was wondering how I can set a file's properties? I'm talking about the fields, author, company etc. I found a way of doing it through Word's builtin properties. But it's a little buggy. So I was wondering if it's possible to do that in other ways?I have this code that works for all Word document files except *.doc format it seems.This is the code I have so far, one text box and one button. The button runs findDocLoop()[code]I know it can probably be done better, but I'm kinda in a hurry. I just noticed when I set a break point right after the code sets the value of the property. I set Word to be open, got in there and checked the property value. And it was actually set!. But after the save phaze, it seems to be lost. Or "reset" to some Office defaults.

Okay, so, for school i have a project i need to completely program by the end of next semester. My graduation project. And it needs to be a full-blown piece of software that would be theoreticly usable for a person or company.assignment was simple:make an application, usable by a person or company, that uses databases and VB.NET
so i started brainstorming and i came up with the following:a client-server application where the server runs on the company's mainframe and it's employees (seeing as it would be an IT company or another company that would use a lot of computer files) can upload to, and download files from, where each file would have a description and additional information (extension, date,emplyees would also be able to exchange private messages so that collegues of the uploader can be notifies that the file they would need is uploaded.
in addition to that there would be an administrator (or multiple) that can overview all PM's (make sure there's no abuse of the system) and administrate the files (delete/edit/...)So really, i have no idea where to begin building this application, so i would think that if i get the interface done, i atleast have an overview of what and how i would need to code.
note: wow now i think about it this seriously sounds more like a website than an application... but still it sounds like a good idea to me and has to be done or else i would not graduate
