Scott Wisniewski wrote an interesting article about drawing maps with VB -[url]...
I wrote a quick question at the end of this blog in which I asked for code updates and raster (pixel) maps two months ago without having heard back.
It seems that his mapping approach deals with polygons rather than rasters (pixels). Does Scott's approach allow to build raster maps?
Does anyone know a similar article that specifically addresses raster maps?
I need to draw 100 lines between 100 semi-random points in a 800x800 pixel square on the screen.
I've been using the built-in drawlines & drawrecangles functions inside of .NET, but my drawing gets erased everytime the form paints.
So, I've been thinking about perhaps drawing to an in-memory bitmap, but I'm not sure if that's a good solution.

I would like to rewrite the code in VB 2008 (or download open source code) to transfer everything to VB 2008. But rather than just putting a picture control on a form as I did before under VB6, I would like to learn and adopt some new technology while continuing to use classic Windows form coding. WPF technology (see [URL] is way over my head.
I would like to load a GIF file, and start with the first pixel and check to see if that pixel color is closer to Black, Red, Green or Yellow, then take what ever color it closest matched to and output that color as a number, 0, 1, 2 or 3. So just for a small example a 5x4 GIF would be converted to something like this: 0112223322220111332?

View 2 Repliesduring the development of my project, i've fall in the need to change the position of some forms, pixel by pixel using a timer.Now, i've checked that the movement is very fluid when form is not very heavy, when it contains few elements, but when it has a lot of elements inside, the movement becames nervous and not fluid, the movement becomes jerky.

View 3 RepliesI'm putting this together mainly just to ask if there's any interest in it. Since I don't use VS2010, I can't use the SDK which I'm sure does some nice things, however I can use the REST service and, with an API key from Bing, I'm able to get what I want.I'll just show some screenshots and if anyone is interested, I'll put the code and full explanation together.I also have a splitter container such that the Results group is in the upper container pane and the Map group is in the lower one:When the user adjusts the splitter (or the form, if it moves the splitter vertically), then after a one second delay, it will refresh the information. I do this because I can tell Bing what size map to return:
View 1 RepliesHow to map a network drive to be used by a service. My question is relatively similar, and I realize there are others that are.. but I can't get it to work. I am creating the service thru visual studio 2010.
I attempted to map using WNetAddConnection2- and it successfully maps and is instantly lost (check if drive is mapped right after mapping it). I tried something else. saw some information about using WSH.. I added the reference and tried using wsh... didn't work.I tried WNetUseConnection and that failed as well.
Attempted running the service under a different profile- that didn't work Once I actually get access to the network drive, i need to copy files from that share into a local directory. Maybe I'm missing the boat here but If someone could give me a thorough explaination of what is actually going on and a direction to head I can probably figure it out
I have a button in my visual basic application that finds an address on a Bing map. It then launches the browser, passing the address of the property on the URL. Used to work just fine, but it doesn seem to work anymore and I don't know why. For example, if I cut/paste the following URL into my browser, bing maps comes up but does nothing.

However, when I bring up bing maps and cut/past just the address into the search box, if finds the parcel. if an address can still be passed on the URL?

I have a program that when you press a button it maps 2 drives, updates a registry value and then starts a executable which is stored in a SQL table. I'm having issues after the file opens. The program it opens does not seem to be working quite right. When you open the program by clicking on the .exe it works file.When I call it from the app, I have issues with the program after it opens. Can someone explain to me the difference between double clicking an .exe and using process.start? Is there a different way to do it? My code is listed below.
