Retaining Alpha Channel On Buttons In Outlook Toolbar
Aug 28, 2009
I am developing a COM Add-in using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008 Pro for Outlook 2003 and am having trouble assigning images to custom toolbar buttons. In a nutshell, I am having to convert from an Icon type to a stdole.IPictureDisp type so that I can assign my buttons a picture. The picture displays, but it loses the Alpha channel and the background is no longer transparent. I can verify that before the conversion to IPictureDisp object, that the PixelFormat property is set to Format32bppArgb (2498570). I am using a coding technique suggested here:[URL]. For C# users, this link [URL] shows how to modify the IPictureDisp one pixel at a time and rebuild the transparency, but I can't find similar functions in VB.NET...

url...But what I'm looking for is just see if any alpha (0-254) is used in at least one of the pixels. Would the Bitmap.Lockbits and BitmapData method be the most efficient (speedy?) or is there another way. I've tried toying around with ColorPalette and the Alpha flag, but never could figure it out (and even if it is a way to check to see if the alpha channel is used at all).

i have created a control as above, this control allows me to import a png with alpha channel and random shape. and then it can display on top of any other control, i.e. textbox, picturebox,etc. and the background should always show what right under it, instead of just show its parent control. it worked if it's static mode, ie stand still in the form. but when i tried to drag/move it, the control wouldn't render itself properly,and also goes underneath other controls.

I am using VB.Net (.Net 4) and Outlook 2007 (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook) to send mass emails to clients on a monthly basis and the text is pre-defined into a HTML file which is parsed.Since there are chances of errors, we are putting it as outlook templates. But we need to put some special tags in the body, for which I want to put a button in the main ribbon of the "MailItem" object (see attached image).I have managed to put the buttons in the "add-ins" menu but I want it right there in the front area.

I am architecting a program that I need some help on. I need to have a "watcher" program that will sit on a server and monitor a SQL Server. At configured intervals, the watcher will run a query on the server and create a dataset of information I want to share to any clients that are listening. I am looking at WCF Peer channel but all I can see is peer to peer chat and most of the examples I have seen are partial examples. I have looked at the example program from Microsoft but I am still a bit confused. The listener programs will receive the dataset of values from the watcher and filter the data at the local level and display the data they need and display it to the end user. I don't know if a TCP client/server would be a better solution, but the dataset may contain up to 10,000 rows of data. From what I read the WCF Peer channel will transmit at 50 mbps and should handle this load. My other option is a server/client architecture using TCP spawning a new thread for each request. Does anyone have any good examples, or articles about WCF and VB that they can point me to?

I've got a micro controller with 4 channel ADC that I want to make a program for. It will be for data logging. I want to take each channel and display it in 4 textboxes to begin with.Later I like to do some conversions of the data to show temperature , use a lookup table and a few other things in each of these boxes, but at first I'd just like to concentrate on getting the data split into each box.The chip output is 8 bytes . The first two are the channel select and the next two is the data. Output of the chip is in ASCII. I don't want to send to the chip, just receive.If I view the output in decimal I get 1xx 2xx 3xx 4xx (xx being the data to display).

Could I subscribe to the _proxy.InnerChannel.Faulted and do that clean up there?

I have written a code in VB.NET using "Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library" to create an appointment, task or contact in Outlook. Now the problem is once i create an appointment, task or contact from my VB.NET code and then if i open these item in outlook and modifies and save the content (like body of an appointment) then the lastmodification time of these item doesn't gets modified. It always shows the previous lastmodification time. This happens only for those item which got created from my VB.NET code.
I have tried realsing the COM object in my VB.NET Code.

I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

I work for a somewhat large company.There are about 160 Windows XP Pro users. We are still using Microsoft Office 2000 for the most part.We have upgraded some users to Office 2003. We are not using Microsoft Exchange.I have to export every users' Outlook 2000 or Outlook 2003 Contacts into an Excel or CSV file every 6 months as a way of backing the Outlook Address Contacts.Currently I am doing this by physically going to every pc and manually exporting the contacts.This is a large pain.I am trying to find out if I can use or create a Visual Basic 2008 Express program or script that will export the contacts from Outlook and save it as an Excel or CSV file.The name of the file should be the same as the computers net name.It should be saved in the same location, on the network, each time.I am new to programming and new to VB 2008 Express.I do not know or have any code to start with.

I'm working on an application that takes certain outlook email messages, saved as text files, and loads data from them into a database. It would be better if I could read the messages from the inbox directly into my app without the user having to save them as text files. I've searched the web and every example I find is from 2003 or earlier and is using VB6. I'd like to read both Outlook and Outlook Express Inboxes. Can someone either provide me with the code to do this or a good "recent" link with a tutorial?

I would like to create a visualizer for the windows system audio. I'm looking for a way to sample the loudness of the sound currently being played. I don't need the actual sound unless required for computing the sound levels. My goal is to create something similar to the bouncing green level found on windows 7's volume control.

I have a datalist control that is not retaining it values during postback when the control causing the postback is outside of the update panel that the Datalist resides in. I have verified that viewstate is on for that usercontrol as well as all its parent controls. My basic situation is that I have a Datalist that contains a user control on a page. When the user selects several rows in a grid and presses a button, a datatable is filled on the backend and assigned to the Datalist which has its item template set to the UserControl.
On ItemDataBound I set specific properties in the control which customize the messages on that control to the specific item. This is then popped up using the AJAX Control Toolkit Modal Popup[ Extender. When the user presses Save the whole page posts back. Data is collected from the user controls and saved to the DB and the popup disappears. The issue I am currently having is that the DataList has 0 items when the save button is pressed instead of the appropriate number. THis issue just started appearing after we upgraded from .NET 2.0 to .NET 3.5.
