Opening An Image In Vb To Send Into A Database - Asp.Net
Apr 22, 2009
I'm currently patching an asp.net program where I need to be able to send an image to an SQL Server 2005 DB. It works fine when I use the asp:fileupload control, but the trick is that when the user deletes the image, I'm supposed to replace it with an image from the server saying "empty", in code-behind. I know how to open, use and save text files in vb, but I can't find any information anywhere on how to open an image / binary file in a similar manner so that I can use it as an sql-parameter on the update query. Below is an example of how easy it is to use a file from the fileupload control.
In VB6 you could BITBLT things around before refreshing the screen. In .NET, I'm aware of DrawImage, but that can only be done on a paint event rather than before anything gets painted. The issue I have is, I need to open several files with image data in them and then build a bigger image with those smaller images. Before I could open them, BITBLT them to a Buffer. As far as I can tell .NET offers no way to do this as the only function I've been able to find (DrawImage) only works within the paint event. Is there still a way to do this in VS08 or no?
I am trying to set up a program that allows you to open multiple COM ports and then select which COM port you send data down. The computer i am using has 18 COM ports. Also on the first code it shows the ports are open they just wont receive anything.
Dim xx as image xx = image.fromfile(Fileloc) picturebox.image = xx
And i can't delete the file even though I've loaded it into a picture box. If I add this line:
xx.dispose the picture box becomes a big red X. I only want to delete the images when my application is closing (they are temp files). So shall I just dispose them before I delete them?
I'm writing a Cleint/Host program that sends a image over tcp (from printscreen, not a file) to the host. Everything seems to work fine and the image is transmitted and displayed in a picturebox plus saved to a folder. The problem is when the printscreen is bigger than 176040 B. First the limit was 128000B but after setting the sendbuffersize and recivebuffersize to 1000kb the limit is 176040 B. Could it be a limit in the tcp protocol?
Here's the client code
Code:Imports System.NetImports System.Net.SocketsImports System.IOImports System.DrawingImports System.Drawing.Imaging Public Class capture
I have one DataGridView and im trying for it to show whats in my SQL database. But when i try to open it, it says the file is in use. I found out that SQL Express is using it, but it isnt even open! So how do i close the databse in the SQL Express?
I am writing a VB.Net application wherein I would like to be able to communicate with it from a remote computer. Specifically, I would like to be able to send (from a remote computer) both text data and also images (jpg, png, etc.) and then have the application use the sent information by displaying it to the user. How would I code the VB.Net app to be able to handle incoming data like this?
If possible I'd like to not be dependent on .Net technology on the "sending" side so I'm not sure if I would just use sockets or a web service or what.
I was wondering if there is an easy and fast way to send an image (or files in general) which is small, as in around 30KB, over the network using VB .NET. the most i was able to do at one point is to read the image (or file) as text, then send each character over the network, but it took way too much time for the file to get sent, and then translated from text to file once again on the other side. I don't know much about network programming, because i just started learning about the subject.
I have two programs running, a client and a server. They are connected through a socket, and a TCPListener. The server is pure VB.NET, but the server needs to take pictures of the desktop, which works, but then needs to send it to the client application.
Im trying to send an image from the server to the client by using network stream. I have looked on google and found out that you can use memory stream and send it, but how do I use memory stream to get the image from the stream and display it on a picture box on the client side?
The program i'm running doesn't seem to open the database in stead I get this error:"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)"ErrorCode=-2146232060Is there a way to fix this error.
I want that when the application exe file is running at that time the database associated with the application shud be closed....Means...I am using the .mdb file.
I need to send and receive a large image between programs running on different machines within the same network.
I've looked at using upd however ran into problems with the size of the packets and (after breaking the image into smaller pieces to get past this problem) the number of packets needing to be processed all at once - and ultimately packet loss.
I've also thought of sending the image by storing it in a common file folder and receiving it by using file watcher as a trigger. However, this just adds further complexities in setup where common folders don't already exist.
Assuming I'm barking up the right tree looking at tcp, can someone point me to/provide an example of how to send an image file using it (vb.net would be ideal). Also, are there practical limits to tcp package sizes?
I want to send image from server to client via .net Sockets and assign it to a picturebox. but I got problem in receiving data, it's 'Server' side code:
I'm trying to send an image to Imgur's server.Everything went fine and I'm getting the URL of the image from the parser but when I'm trying to open it on the web browser, I'm not getting the image... only a "broken image" icon.I think it's a problem in the convertion to the byte array.... but I don't get it.
Dim image As Image = image.FromFile(OpenFile.FileName) Dim ms As New MemoryStream() ' Convert Image to byte[] image.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
Although im using this simple logic the image that is being displayed on the remote machine the one that i send is not the same as you can see. In fact 90% is missing! The Image Size is 256KB JPG
I am testing an server-client application which captures a desktop's screenshot, saves it on a directory and then sends it to the server. But i am facing a problem. It sends me 0 bytes :S. Here is the client's
Dim i As Integer Dim ReadData(2047) As Byte Dim ReadLength As Long
I hoping to find a current and simple way to do this. I'm using VWD Express 2008 and SQL Express 2008.I'm able to get the client's path to the image file using an asp:FileUpload control on the web form.
How do I upload the client's image file and display it in the web form's image control?How do I save it to the sqlserver? The image table is already set up with a "Image" data type column. Can the image be saved to the database as simply as other data types?
I am working on a project related to saving an image captured from a scannner in a folder and in the database. The scan performs ok but when I save the image on disk and the path in the database I get the following error
1) Add a new record - I can currently add records text to access database, but not images.
2) Get the ID [URL]I'm not sure how to integrate this code into my code. I am stuck here.
3) Save the image in the filesystem using the ID as a filename - I can save the upload an image and save the image to a directory on my computer, but I am unable to name the image that of the ID of the access database.
4) Update the database to put the filename in the record you just created. - I am unable to do this as well (obviously).

I have included a database in my program and it works well except that I would like it to open in sorted order based on column 1. It manually sorts by clicking on the column, but I would like it to sort on form opening
i am making a windows form for a company and i am in a mess in getting my database connection to my datagridview by clicking a button and my data should been shown in datagridview. datasets and connection strings.and even i want to print the document.
