Creating A PDF Using ItextSharp In A Windows Forms Application?
May 18, 2011
Creating a pdf document using Itext is quite simple if your application is a web application because you can find samples to help you out all over the web. Creating a pdf document for a windows application on the other hand is not so easy. I cannot find a single sample online anywhere.so far this is what I have:
Private Sub PrintDefaultReport()
'Declare PDF document
Dim doc As New Document(PageSize.A4, 40, 40, 0, 35)
Dim MemStream As New MemoryStream
[code]....
What is the above equivalent for a windows application?
m planning to make it as such:1. BLL and DAL are on the same box.2. Only PL is installed on client machines.Simple enough. Right now am planning to go web service as I have no idea how to do this with windows forms. So in a nutshell, my question would be how to connect the PL to the BL and how to do this during the development stage. I was planning on deploying the BL as a webservice then during development, the PL sets a reference to it to get the data.Data will basically be datasets, datatables etc. Might also have a need to do some file transfer.
Just looking for a bit of advice really on the best way to go about something.I am creating a new freeware game in which I am creating like OS for the game. So far I have the OS Home screen (Desktop) with a menu a bit / time / date etc.hat I am trying to do (and not sure the best way to do it) Is I want to be able to create windows within my virtual desktop 'form' as Windows does essentially for instance clicking on 'start' and going to 'Internet Explorer'I have turned the boreder style to no the desktop form and any other thing I do so its my look and feel but I am not sure the best way to go about this. I possibly thought creating my 'windows' as panels and just showing and hiding them but that doesn't appear to work when I overlay them.
I have a basic three form application. It doesn't seem to close after navigating through forms. If I were to open the application, and the main form is displayed. If I press the X button, the application closes fine(Goes from processes) If I were to open the application, and then navigate from the main form to another form using me.hide & form1.show, and press the red X on Form1, the application again, closes fine.
In my project i added a User Control so that i can reuse in different Windows forms.I designed and coded the UserControl1 according to my need and now i want to use it in Form2 but i cant understand how to do it?
I have the requirement to create an application that has multiple front ends developed using Windows Forms, WPF, ASP and Compact Framework Mobile Forms.I would like to be able to create a series of obejct representing the business logic and have this logic accessible from the various front ends available. My first thought was to use remoting as I'd like to be able to pass the business objects back and forth between client and server but the compact framework doesn't support remoting and also transferring a full framework business object to a compact framework business object doesn't seem possible.My next thought was to use web services but again the passing of business objects seems to be very hard to accomplish. Without doing this I would have to create individual web methods for each business operation.
Finally my next option is to use sockets and write the whole client/server logic within some classes and expose them to the UI/Business layer. My only problem with this is it is not scaleable should the number of clients increase dramatically whereas using remoting or web services I can host the solution via ASP.Net.Does anybody have an ideas on the best way forward for this or even have any input on how they would write an application that required a windows form, wpf, asp website and mobile device GUI all of which want to use the same business logic?
I'm porting code that I wrote for use in a Windows Forms application to a Windows Service, but for some reason, the code that worked in the Windows Forms application is now throwing errors in the Service

I have a windows forms application written in VB.NET which scrapes information from serveral web pages (who doesn't right)? Anyway, I am having problem with one particular site where partway through the page navigation my application hangs. When I press pause (or break) in the debugger, it stops on a call to System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents.
Resuming execution shows that it really is stuck on this line (it does not reach the next line of code). It also hangs about the same point each time I run it (at least its consistent). Since System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents yields to other threads on the same processor and then resumes execution of the current thread, I think the problem is that some other thread is not behaving well (not returning from some event handling code). I thought Windows 7 was pre-emptive, which makes me doubt that theory but I really don't know.
[Code]...
The program scrapes somewhere between 12 and 14 pages before it gets stuck on the call to DoEvents. Does anyone have a clue why this would happen? Why would any call to DoEvents hang?

My boss gave me an MS Access application that was developed by our former colleague. He wants me to convert that application to VB.Net Windows form application. I went through the MS Access Application. It contains tables, queries, forms, reports and macros. I could not find the programming (Where is the code written in MS Access?). My boss wants the windows application to be same as the MS Access Application (both in design and logic). I don't how will i develop the windows form. How can I achieve this?

We have an application in Access for UI and MS Sql server as Database server. We now decided to build a new application in web application for UI. This web application is only used by the employees who work for the company. But later we decided to host this web application on outside server. So the user (from this company only.) can able to login anywhere in the world. First I thought creating the web application using 'windows' authentication thinking we may be using it as an intranet web application. But now my manager asked me to use both 'Forms' and as well as 'Windows' for using this application and this web application will be hosted on outside server. I really don't catch his point of using both types of authentication.

I have this code and I hope that this is correct. I build a dll component from the class file that contains this code and I am trying to use it as a reference in windows forms application. I have allready made this forms application and added the ddl to the reference but I do not know how to use it in there. I would like to activate (insert value 1) inputA & inputB using checkbox and that the outputQ is displayed in textbox (1 or 0). Do I have to use a vb interface to do this? And how can I use this code as dll component in the forms application?
I'm trying to design a windows form application. By default, .NET had put Tahome 8,25 on toolbar and Microsoft SansSerif 8,25 on everything else. To improve general look and feel of the forms I'd like to change them.
Which font family should I use as a default? And what size should they be? For:
Classic data input form (label + textbox, label + combobox...) Data grid
Is there any recommended way?
Application is a classic business app, you can think of it as an accounting type.
How can you write a VB.NET Windows Forms Application via CodeDom? I have tried everything, the closest i got to it is the code below, which first of all shows command prompt window which is not good, and then shows the form for like a second and everything disappears.
