How to Fill this Space marked by question Mark?
I have a form which uses a table adapter to read a table:Me.TblOrdersTableAdapter.Fill(Me.WorkDataSet.tblOrders)I want to change it so it only reads 1 specific record (variable at run time). This is for an Access database. To do that I could add a filter to the Fill query or make another query with a filter but I don't know the code to reference a field on a form. Can anyone supply the correct way to reference a field in a table adapter query, if it is possible, or direct me to a better way?
View 4 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to get the max record count before i populate a listview grid. I'm using the Oracle 10g DB and I've tried:
SELECT COUNT(*) as countNum, status, date, theTitle, theMessage, date2 " & _
"FROM blah blah...
messagebox.show(dr(0))
But that makes the SQL query crash. It doesnt seem as though i am about to put anything related to "count" in my query or it will crash so is there any other way i can see how many records it returns other than that?
Let us suppose a 256 colors picture (bmp or jpeg) with a size of 500 x 500 pixels.I would like to allocate a code (1 to 256 max) to each different color identified and put that code in a 500 x 500 table of a .xls sheet, all positionned at the right place.Additionnally, I would like also to place a chart illustrating the different colors and their respective code at the bottom of the sheet.

View 1 RepliesTo read a record in a binary file in VB^ I would define a type with all the fields specifying strings as STRING * whatever the length of the field was.
For example:
Type Record
Field1 as string *15
Field2 to as string * 20
Field3 as String * 10
field4 as byte(10)
End Type
Dim filerecord as record
I would the open my binary fiel and do a Get#1,, filerecord
The record would be read and all the fielsd would be in place.
Now with the new Structure we cant dimension an array in the Structure And wjhen declaring strings we can't specify the length.
I tried to create structire and use a stream binary reader. and just read afixed number of bytes into the type, The program says it canvert bytes to my fiels.
So how do I do this. Or has Microsoft in their infinite wisdom left no way to do this.

I am trying to extend an application to to write the details from textboxes on a invoice form to an xml file.I have created 3 methods for my invoice class which will open the invoice xml document, write to it, and close it.The open Invoice method creates and invoice.xml file and writes a start tag named invoices.
The WriteInvoice method writes an invoice element for the invoice with attribute named customerName and three child elements named ordertotal, discounTotal and Invoice total. These values are taken from the textboxes form the form.
The CloseInvoice writes the end tag for the root element(invoices) and closes the file.
I have wriiten code for these methods but can only get the open invoice method to work.
My code for the 3 methods is shown below:

My first question has to do with the opening lines needed in a VB program in order to connect to Excel 2007 and read/write some data from/to it. I know the process only slightly and reading and writing to the cells is not my real concern for the moment. What I need to become familliar with are the lines like this:
CODE:
This is just one of the examples I have read through and to be honest I only follow this slightly. The trouble was that with each new article I read, people did this differently, not the variables on the left mind you, just that some left out lines, which I can see could be done based on circumstances. Still others said the Imports line was not needed....etc...and other loaded up at least 3 or four more Imports lines insisting all were needed.
I'm looking for some straight-forward advice on what is the minimum needed to access an existing Excel spreadhseet and to just read some of it's cells to variables in the code and then writed some data back to certain cells within the spreadsheet and then save and close it.
Also, please note that I am using VB 2010 Express. Why, because I'm a broke developer who spent most of last year out of work. I have a new contract assignment which is so far going well but will go even better if I can master this technique with VB.NET, not VBA. And all the docs I've read said that even though VB 2010 Express is a watered down version of VS, I should be able to do medium level tasks such as this with it.
Trying to emulate a typing application that when typing data in a WPF form, the info gets transferred to another application, such as notepad, word, etc. My first attempt involved using the .Sendkeys method but it doesn't seem to be repeatable 100% of the time. I initially had a button that when pressed would transfer data from a WPF app field to an open notepad app. Again, if I pressed it several times in a row, it would be hit or miss. It's like it hangs up and then after enough time, I try again and it works. I really need it to be 100%. Is there a fix for this method or should I take on a different approach? It would be ideal if I could go from notepad, word, etc. back to the WPF form as well, but I thought I would get one way working first.
