how can I get specific record there in report by passing string parameter from vb.net to crystal reports? For example - I have text box, button & crystalreportviewer there in my form. When user will use it he will write specific word there in the text box & click on view report button then it will automaticlly find out the specific record & show it there in report.

I have set up date parameter boxes with calendar drop down and they are able to send via email a URL link that would either display the report via ReportViewer or send a link that would let then view the report in Excel or PDF. This is working just fine. Now I just added another report with a procedure prompt using a text box. Report works fine when I run it in SSRS. If I enter say carotid stent, it displays all records that have the word "carotid stent" in the procedure name field. Now, when I added code using VS 2005 to accommodate this new parameter, here's my code -
ProcedureName = txtProcedureName.Text
msg.Body = "Please click on the URL link to view the report - " + Chr(13) + Chr(10) + "http://SERVERNAME/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReports%2f" + ReportName +

I need to call a function in an unmanaged .dll written in C lang from vb.net. The function declaration looks like this [code]Now the behavior of this function is that it copies some data in argument "reply" and returns a numeric value which signals its pass/fail status. How do i pass it a string object so that it can copy data. Following is how i access this function.[code]When the call completes, returned status is absolutely fine but there is nothing in string "str". What is it that i am missing. I'm not sure about the string object that i am passing as argument.

Pass a string array from Visual Basic Express 2008 to unmanaged code in a Dll.The array is Dimmed as in DIM myArray(11) as String
I'm developing the dll myself using Powerbasic.
The dll expect a 4 bytes pointer to a safearray's handle. As far as I have understood it; the array's string elements must be passed in ANSI format. The code in the dll will then use OLE Api to get the LBound and Ubound of the array and the address of the first element in array.
I have written my own function, which in C would be declared like this, using standard Win32 calling conventions:int Thing( char * command, char * buffer, int * BufSize);I have the following amount of VB figured out, which should import the dll and call this function, wrapping it up to make it easy to call Thing("CommandHere",GetDataBackHere).UPDATE:This code is now a working solution, as shown here:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System
Imports System.Text

Updates: I got the code to build by following the help received here, and then I had forgot the As Return Type (which got me a MarshalDirectiveException PInvokeRestriction). Then I had an assertion failure inside my DLL, which lead to an SEHException. Once fixed, this works BEAUTIFULLY. There are newsgroups where people are saying this can not be done, that VB only loads managed dll assemblies (which I guess is the normal thing most VB users are used to).

View 2 RepliesI need to pass an event as a parameter to a function and I'm wondering if there is any way of doing this.
The reason why I need to do this is because I have a sequence of two lines of code that is littered all over my program, where I dynamically remove the handler to an event, then set the handler again. I'm doing this for several different events and event handlers, so I've decided to write a function that does this.
As an example, let's say I have a combobox in my code called combobox1, and I have the handler called indexChangedHandler. In several places of my code, I have the following two lines:
RemoveHandler combobox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf indexChangedHandler
AddHandler combobox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf indexChangedHandler
Now, I don't want to keep on repeating the above two lines of code (or similar) all over my program, so I'm looking for a way to do this:
Private Sub setHandler(evt As Event, hndler As eventhandler)
RemoveHandler evt, hndler
AddHandler evt, hndler
End Sub
so that everywhere where those two lines of code(or similar) occur in my program, I can just replace them with:
setHandler(combobox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf indexChangedHandler)
So far, the "evt as Event" part of the argument of the setHandler function is giving an error.
P.S I've asked this question on a couple of other forums and keep getting asked why I would want to set the handler immediately after removing it. The reason is because dynamically adding an event handler n-times causes the handler to be executed n-times when the event occurs. To avoid this, i.e to ensure that the handler is executed just once when the event occurs, I first remove the handler each time I want to add the handler dynamically.
You might be asking why the handler would be added several times in the first place... The reason is because I add the handler only after a particular event, say E1, in my form has occured (I add the handler within the handler of event E1). And event E1 can occur several times within my form. If I do not remove the handler each time before adding it again, the handler gets added and thus executed several times.
Whatever the case, the processing occuring within the function is not of ultimate importance to me at this time, but rather just the means of passing an event as a parameter.
I'd like to create a function myFunc with one parameter, which is a delegate. I should be able to call it with a delegate as parameter.E.g.[code]But how do I code myFunc, in other words, how do I enable myFunc to have it passed a delegate so that it can be called using myFunc(addressof test Func)?

From what I understand, when you use AddHandler you're not actually calling a Sub, so you can't pass a parameter. I'm confused on what to do though about this. I've just populated a DataGridView and added a button to it in the codebehind. I'm then using an AddHandler to add a click event to the button. So when I get to the click event, I need to be able to access to the datagridview because clicking the button takes data from the datagridview and loads it into excel. What would I do about this.
