How To Grab Sections Of A Website And Put Them Into The App
Sep 22, 2009
I want to make a desktop application for [URL]..if anyone is familiar with any of these sites (Fmylife etc), they will know that the text is in the white bubbles going down the screen.
Is it possible to grab just the stories, and ignore everything else?
I have tried this kind of thing:
Private Sub Grab_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Grab.Click
Dim Actual
Actual = Mid(MLIABrowser.Document.Body.InnerText, 397, 1000000)
RichTextBox1.Text = Actual
End Sub
This just gets all the text after the 397 character, but there are several problems with this:
- The adds on the page are different every time, so it would be impossible to get a constant
- There is still text on the sides and bottom that is being grabbed
- I also do not want the "comments" etc shown. JUST the story...

I was wandering if I can push a button to read contents of a webpage and then print links into a textbox or something along those lines. Maybe search from a textbox to find keyword on webpage.

I have my program already coded to grab certain HTML links on the DocumentComplete function, but for some reason it will not grab links from a page when the links I need to access are embedded into the Flash on the page - Is there a simple way to be able to access the links in the Flash, or am I screwed?

I started with Visual basic 2010 and wants to learn this program. I am reading some tutorials but there is one thing i can't find.
I want different sections in a program. I have added a menu with some options. Now when i click in the memo on the "personnel" option i want to show the personnel form. I did this with
Public Class Form1Private Sub NieuwToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NieuwToolStripMenuItem.Click formPersoneel.Show()End Sub End Class
This will open the form only in a new window. How can i load this forms in the program itself?

How easy it is to "split" a bitmap into separate parts?Here is a bitmap that was generated by a program - the red pixels that you see are purely red, there are no other colours.I want to know if the left side is "redder" than the right side. (Actually I want to be more precise than that (but I can figure that out on my own))So, I think that "splitting" the bitmap up into sections like this: would be the best way to do it then I can count the red pixels in each section.Here is the part of the code snippet that produced the bitmap you see above:I think I might be able to modify this easily to count pixels, if I know how to split the bitmap into section thingies.
Dim are_identical As Boolean = True
Dim eq_color As Color = Color.White
Dim ne_color As Color = Color.Red
For x As Integer = 0 To wid - 1

I searched the forum and the web in general but did not find anything that answered my question.I am trying to create repeating sections (much like you can do in InfoPath development) in VB. For example, I would have a dozen textboxes in a section which the user would be able to fill out.

I have a form that I am creating to document information about computers that I build. I have created the basic layout, what I have is a group box that has many different controls in it (text boxes, combo boxes, additional group boxes etc) What I want to be able to do is have a button that will copy the group box (computer information) and all of its contents and then paste it below the first group box with all of the fields blank or in their default setting; and keep doing this for as many computers as I want to add. Each project I do has a different amount of computers on it so I want this form to be able to handle any amount of computers.
I can't seem to find much on what I want to do, any pointers, direction or idea's
I was able to do this with an excel spreadsheet but all I had to do was reference and select a cell range, scroll down and paste the new section in. This is my code from excell, just as an example of what I did then. But with VB I'm stumped on how to approach this.
Range("U3:AB11").Select
Range("U11").Activate
Application.CutCopyMode = False

I have created a Windows Forms application in Visual Studio.Net 2008. I have some group boxes on the form in order to section various controls on the page. At the bottom of my form is a group box containing a texbox used for display exception messages. I would like the user to be able to toggle the ability to hide/show this section of the form. Is there a control which allows the show/hide feature of a form?

I have the following list Dim ordersToUpdate as New List(Of OrderUpdate)I am using a "For Each" to iterate and update a legacy DB..I am having a LOCKING problem on the DB when the "ordersToUpdate" is large. Instead to puting a Threading.Thread.Sleep to pause, is there a proper way to break the list up into sections e.g iterating 100 at a time?

The only thing I am coming up with in my searches is stuff to do with expandable type converters, and all of that documentation is a bit over my head as trying all the examples is failing horribly. I would assume that there is an easier way to go about this without junking up my code with more stuff I don't understand.[code]Now, variables 1-5 have to go under section1, which is what is going on now. However, I want to group together variables 1-4, then group together variables 5-8, so they have the plus sign and can expand. But I cannot apply another category to any of these as they already have a category. All of the other things I have tried putting in additional "<tryexpand("notgonnawork")> _" sections does exactly that, not gonna work.

I'm making a program in C#, but I want to test out part of the program I'm going to integrate into it in VB, and what I want to do is divide a file into sections. The files range from 60mb to around 180mb, and I know that it is really hard to open files of that size, so for my app I want it to divide the file into smaller sections and put files in a folder temporarily so It could just read them from there. And I want to break it down to about, 5-10mb per file.

I have 3 web methods in a WCF, called 'DeleteGroup', 'AddGroup', 'ModifyGroup'.Each method has its own code. I want to place a lock on code within each method, so that only one method executes at a time. For example, if 'DeleteMethod' is being executed then no request for 'AddGroup' or 'ModifyGroup' can be executed. So may be I could use something like what is below, but not very sure ? Also, where in the WCF would I declare the locker object, and would it be private, public or static (i.e. shared)?
SyncLock locker
--Delete Method Body
End SyncLock

Is there a preferred method of creating a file with multiple sections? For example a program for a small retail business that might include different categories of sales, etc.I've come up with a primitive way of separating sections of a text file, which I can read and write right now, but I'm not confident that it will always work. I have a feeling it could produce an error down the road.

I'm currently trying to add all the sections of a specified .ini into a combobox. Here is my current
sPath = Application.StartupPath & "Settings.ini"
For Each SectionName In INIRead(sPath)
ComboBox1.Items.Add(SectionName)
Next
But that returns this in my combo box:
Now that's my section in the .ini, but it's scrambled and placed into multiple lines. I just want it on a single line as said in the .ini.

I want to code in our VB.net to be a little easier to follow both to improve readability and also make it a lot easier to know the best place to put a new bit of code/feature.
Essentially, I'd like to have a 10,000 foot "outline" of the code" with hyperlinks from the outline to the code.
It needs to be portable, so BookMarks won't do the trick (I think). I'm thinking maybe TODO comments. I'd like to create our own Todo style comment like "Outline" or something but that keyword would need to be in the config file for VS as well (but then it's just one thing to keep sync'd).[code]...
