Retrieve Original Documents Saved By OLE Container?
Jan 29, 2008
I am faced with quite a bit of a challenge: We have an (Oracle) database with about half a million documents in it. These documents are of all kinds of sorts: Office documents (.doc, .xls, etc.) but also email messages (.msg), text messages (.txt), images (.jpg, .gif, .bmp, .tif), .html files and even .zip files... The documents are saved in the database through an VB6 OLE container. So they are stored in the database in the same binary format as you would get when you call SaveToFile from the OLE container. Now I need to restore all these documents to their original files... For the Word documents I've found that I can read the binary data back into the OLE container and then use OLE automation for this by calling OleContainer.object.SaveAs(fileName). This works for about 90% of the Word documents. But for the other types of documents I haven't found yet how you can call the save function from code.

Public objword As New Word.Application
objword.Documents.Open(FileName:=ofilename)
^ Showing the declaration of the word document that i wish to edit.
Dim oDoc As Word.Document
objword.Visible = True
oDoc = objword.ActiveDocument
oDoc.Range.Text = codes(j, 1) & " " & codes(j, 2)
This gets the document and adds text into it, exactly what i want it to do. But it replaces the whole document. I just want it to add text at the start of the document. Not replace the whole document.

In VB.net 2010
when i reopen my solutions the document tabs are empty, None of my open documents were saved. I hate this as have always been used to the documents being restored.
I have searched but cannot find the option to alter this behavior.

I want to write a program using vb.net tht compares the name of a document on my desktop to the name of the document on the server. If they're the same then I'd like to retrieve it and have it replace the file I already have.How can i do this? Does this mean that i have to write a web application cuz i hope not. I dont no anything about those. I am using that server for storage purposes only so i assumed that i didnt need a database for the name of the document.

I create a program whose functionality would be selecting a file, then gets the contents of that file (Word or text files). The program, of course, has a Richtextbox on it where the file content will be filled to.

So, how can i do this? Is there an existing class/package in vb.net that does something like this?

I've been asked to get the page counts for documents stored as tif files. What I have now is looping through our third party software to open them and then get the page count. I can't stop the image from flashing and it is very slow. Does anyone know of a way to loop through them quickly and can the page counts (one image can have many documents)?

I have a form (say Form1) opened into a MDI Container form, and I want to open a new form (Form2) as a child of Form1. I open it with Form2.showdialog() but it don't act as a child, I mean, I can move it outside the bouds of the Form1 (and even the MDI)

Say I have some constants that depends one of other, and I decided to keep them together in a container instead of keeping it as individual constants in a class.I thought use a Structure for that scope, but compiler force me to declare a private member for that structure.

This is more of a ASP.NET question, but we are using VB.NET so it might be relevant. We just recently upgraded an ASP.NET 1.1 project to 4.0.Once we started running through the app to regression test it, we found that (consistently) if we made a call like DataBinder.Eval(Container, "PropertyName") from a User Control, ASP.NET complained that it could not find the PropertyName on the page.
PropertyName *does* exist on the User Control, but not on the page.This worked up until we upgraded to 4.0.The fix we found was instead of using "Container", we used "Me" to reference the control that the code was being called on.

start a desktop app. make the form 1- MDI Container = True. 2- Right to Left = True , 3- change the Right to left Layout = True.Set the background to any jpg image, when you run the form, the backgroud disappears.

VB 6.0 had a Set Pixel function, which is not available in VB.net. using a draw ellipse function with parameters specifying a circle one pixel in diameter.The above is painfully slow.I have been drawing graphics in a Bit Map using a Set Pixel function & then copying the entire graphic from Bit Map to a Picture Box. This results in nothing seeming to happen for several seconds & then the entire graphic is displayed in the Picture Box.
The above does the job, but it would be nice to display the graphic as it is being generated pixel by pixel, which was possible using VB 6.0, Might there be a Windows 7 API which would set a pixel? Might Microsoft be considering a Set Pixel function for Picture Box graphics?

In my program, I want the user to be able to move an MDI child window anywhere inside the MDI container but I need it to be kept completely inside the container boundary. For example, the upper left corner should never be at a location less than 0,0 when moved left or up. Currently, if I slide the child window too far left, it extends outside of the MDI container window and the MDI container shows the bottom scroll bar.
Is there a way to prevent the child window from moving outside of the boundaries of the container window? I tried adding code to the .move (see below) so that if the new location was less than 0,0 then it reset it to 0,0 but then the child window controls flicker as the window is moved beyond 0,0 and the logic moves it back to 0,0. It appears that even though the code changes the location to 0,0 and the window shows the child moved to 0,0, when the mouse moves again, the window jump back to its unmoved location.
Private Sub MyForm_Move(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Move
If Location.X < 0 Then

I need a recommendation for a data container. I am loading a sequence of letters (Latin characters) into a text string.I then want to pass the individual characters into a 2-D matrix-like container (i.e. populate left to right based on # column assumption).I then want to search for patterns within this matrix using rules similar to that of a crossword puzzle (Left to Right, Top to Down, Left to Right Diagonal).What is the best container to do the anlysis in?I am assuming the decision to this will be based on the search flexibility of the container.My initial goal is to use crossword puzzle rules as noted above.But I may want to expand this to search backward as well (ie. Right to Left).
