Enter A Media File Without Hard Coding?

Mar 8, 2009

I have a problem when it gets published and I have hard coded the file address.Is there another way to do this that will dynamically generate the address for anyone's computer.Here is my function. I did not want to place it in my resources since I will be creating more media files that might slow down my application.

Private Sub mLesson1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mLesson1.Cliclayer.URL = "C:UsersusernameDocumentsVisual Studio

Update A Single Table Of A DataSet Using A TableAdapter Without Hard-coding The Table Name?

Nov 13, 2009

I have a project which contains a large number of lookup tables, and I have all of these lookup tables represented in a single typed DataSet, which contains TableAdapters for each lookup. I've designed an editor for these lookup tables, which should allow editing of one of these at a time. My front-end is written in VB and WinForms, the back-end is a SOAP web service; I can successfully pass the changes to the DataSet back to the web service, but can't find a way to use a TableAdapter to update the single table that has been changed.

What I'm trying to do is instantiate the appropriate TableAdapter for the updated DataTable by sending the name of the table back to the web service along with the DataSet, then referring to the TableAdapter with a dynamic name. The normal way to instantiate a TableAdapter is this:

Dim ta As New dsLookupsTableAdapters.tlkpMyTableTableAdapter

What I'd like to do is this, but of course it doesn't work:

strTableName = "tlkpMyTable"
Dim ta As New dsLookupsTableAdapters(strTableName & "TableAdapter")

Is there any way to achieve this, or am I taking the wrong approach altogether? My other alternative is to write separate code for each table, which I'd prefer to avoid!

Coding For A Program - Enter Certain Values/text And Organises Into A Word Document Automatically

Oct 23, 2011

I am currently working on a program, that you enter certain values/text in and it organises it into a word document automatically,

I found a code online, which has worked a treat, However I'm wondering what lines of code I would need to:

1. Add Bullets or Numbers

2. Add a new line of text (I can add a new paragraph but I don't want a huge space between the two lines)

3. I have around 20 check box's is there a quicker way to check which are selected then write the text in word or do I have to write alot of If Checkbox1.Checked = True then, etc)

Open Media File With Media Player?

Oct 27, 2009

I have created a media player (vb.net 2005) using the media player control. Plays fine when using open dialog box and url. I have set my player as the default player but when I click on a media file, the player will open but not play. I am sure it has to do with on open event and coding the url to see the selected file just like any other media player out there.

Winforms Saving Images To SQL Server Without Creating A File On The User's Hard Drive?

Jun 22, 2011

This is my first attempt at creating a Winforms application, and I have been developing in the .Net Framework (Silverlight, ASP.Net, WPF) for about 6 months. So, my appologies if this is a newbie question.

Basically what I am doing right now is taking the drawings of a stylus-based input, and storing them into an image field in a SQL Server database. Then, in another form, I go and get that image out of the database, and load it into a picture box. It works, but it is rather "sloppy" how it got there.When the user clicks save, it stores that image into a temporary folder, then converts it to a byte array and throws it into the database that way. Then, it deletes the file from the temporary folder. When retrieving it, it pulls it out of the database in a byte array, then converts it to an image in a temporary folder, thus displaying it on the form.

Is there a way that I can just bypass the storing of the file onto the user's harddrive both times, and go from byte array to picturebox?

.net - Find Media Item In WMP Media Library?

Apr 25, 2010

I am messing around with the WMPLib component provided by Windows Media Player 12 (wmp.dll) in VB.NET with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

I am trying to retrieve a media item from my media library based on its name (assuming there are no duplicate names). At the moment, I'm grabbing the entire media library, and looping through every media item, and quitting the loop when I've found the correct media item. This works well (except for when a media item with that name cannot be found), but I was hoping there was a more efficient way of doing this.

Here is my code so far:

Public Class WMPTest
Private myWMP As WMPLib.IWMPCore
Private myMediaCollection As WMPLib.IWMPMediaCollection

[Code]......

So what I really want is a way to optimize findTrack() to do its thing without looping through the entire media library (which could be huge).
