It has 14 date time pickers set to hours and minutes only in 24 hour format (1 on and 1 off per day), 7 checkboxes, 7 radio buttons, 2 textboxes to display day of the week and current time and a few buttons. As a standalone project, this works well

View 4 RepliesThe thing is im making formless application, thats visible in tray only.. But i have like 21 icons for default functions.. and when my program launches all icons with the exe file is loaded in RAM. Is there a way to use an external resources file, where all the icons is stored, so when application needs one it takes it from rscx file and loads it, and when it needs other icon it releases the one taken and takes other.. Im asking this not just for ico files, but for any file types that can be stored in my.resources..

View 3 RepliesI have downloaded and played with the standard MS Examples in the VS2008 Download pages.They are very good for some areas but a little light in database handling.
1) Search Grid plus the Record Selected Display (this is beyond the scope of MIcrosofts VS2008 Examples)
2) Using plain ADO commands with VS2008 (rather than all the fancy data controls)
3) Using Stored Procedures rather than all the fancy data controls
4) Database Access Examples
My application area of interest is mainly ERP, Accounting and CRM Systems
I was wondering if anyone had any resources on vb controls, I'm just a beginner so please excuse my little knowledge. I have been having troubles with the checked listbox control, selectedindex is the method for displaying the checked list position yeah? so what is the method that i need to use the actual vaue that is stored in the checked listbox ( the string ) ?

View 1 RepliesNeed to design a program that can encrypt and decrypt messages stored in simple text files using a private key stored in a separate file. Software should also be able to allow the users to enter simple messages that either displays the encrypted or decrypted message. The encryption method should use a simple substitution method. It should be set out in the following format:
Example (the "@" is the separator):
@
The character The Code End of line
A @ 4gh EOL
B @ 84!9 EOL
Has to use the 256 ASCII character codes. The separator will be used to separate the character and its corresponding code.Here are the pseudocodes I have come up with:
� Read any private key file
separator = readline(file);
while not EOF(file) do
tempStr = readline(file);

View 9 RepliesIn a VB project I can add a resource via the project properties resources tab, or I can right-click the project in the solution explorer, click add, then click add existing item. What are the differences?If I want to add a DLL file and include it as an embedded resource, do I have to add the file via both methods? Only one?

View 7 RepliesHow do I access resources in a .Net Web Project. I created a web project and then in App_LocalResources folder added a resx file "AstroWap.resx". Now how do I access values from that. The property My.Resources itself is not available.
View 3 RepliesI actually don't care so much about the name of the project as I do the .exe it builds. So I went into the project properties, goto the Application tab and change the Assembly name. But when I build, it loses the resources I've included. It builds w/o errors, but the icon's and pictures I've included are not in the program, and then the IDE gives me errors telling me it can't find those files.
I do have those resources in the program, their persistence is set to "Embedded in .resx" and their Build Action is set to "Resource". They work fine in the designer and show properly, and they build and show fine w/o changing the Assembly name.
My app bundles a set of VBScripts (UTF8 text files) into a VB.NET assembly. I used to embed the script code into the classes as String members, but this is proving to be a poor design. I want to include them as resources instead. What's the best way to add resources to the CompilerParams?
What I've got so far (excluding all the error checks):
Dim comParams As New CompilerParameters()
comParams.OutputAssembly = DLL_Path
comParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.dll")
[Code]....
The CompilerParameters contain fields for EmbeddedResources and LinkedResources, but from the examples I found so far these seem to pertain only to framework resources???
i use Visual Basic 2008. is it possible to download a file directly to project resources, or to import file to resources on running vb 2008 application.
for example i have : www.example.com/file.ext and i want to download it, but not to C: or C: drives, but to My.Resources.file..

View 4 RepliesWith Visual Studio - 2008. I publish to my server. I have problem with the ClickOne, I cant find a way to include my DB connection and resources folder included in my project. It update correctly, but it does not include my resource folder a database connection. Maybe something with the rights to connect to the DB. Can can also see that every time I update my application, it make a new folder but it do not input my folders.
Any right way to do this:
Dim con As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;data source=" & "Resources/" & "myDB.mdb")
This is my string to connect. And I have added "myDB.mdb" it to my resource folder in the project. I have followed this video: [URL]. What is the correct way to implement a DB connection to my project when I am using ClickOnes?
I need to make an array of images using references to the resources folder. The following is my code which does not work:
Dim imgPictures(8) As Image
imgPictures(0) = Image.FromFile(My.Resources.cat_1.ToString)
How do I reference the images sitting in the resources folder for this task?
If I have some resources added to a project, such as images or sounds, they are placed in Resources folder. Say I created a new image file with the same name and want to replace the one I added earlier.
Do I have to do this via Projects Properties Resources tab by removing the old one and adding the new one? Or can I simply copy and paste the new file in Windows Explorer into the Resources folder (replacing the old one)? Would it break the project? Does it matter if the project is currently open in Visual Studio?
I'm pretty sure this is something super easy, but how do i access a resource that is in a separate project using the expression syntax?I thought it would be like so:
<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>
where SomeNamespace.Resources is the project that the resources are located in.
i normally just do <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%> but i need to have this inside a control. <kw:SlickUpload ID="SlickUpload1" runat="server"
ValidExtensions=".png, .gif, .jpg"
InvalidExtensionMessage="<%$ Resources:SomeNamespace.Resources.Resources.Web, PleaseSelectAnImage %>" >
so when i just do what i normally do, it puts <%= SomeNamespace.Resources.Web.PleaseSelectAnImage%>" literally.my project name is SomeNamespace.Resources. the resource file name is Web. and the key is PleaseSelectAnImage.
How would I load a file in the WMP from the projects resources?
formAudio.URL = My.Resources.formAudioWAV
returns an error: Value of type 'System.IO.UnmanagedMemoryStream' cannot be converted to 'String'. It absolutley has to be AxWMP over My.Computer.Audio.Play.
Is there an easy way to edit the code below so that it copes (works the same) if the embedded resource is not a plain text file, but a compressed text file?
Dim tempList() As String
tempList = My.Resources.ENABLE.Split({Environment.NewLine}, StringSplitOptions.None)
For Each strWord In tempList
enableFullList.Add(New Words(strWord))
Next
I have seen System.IO.Compression but can't work out what to do, DeflateStream, GZipStream etc.
I'm working in this application in Visual Basic Studio 2010 I have a combobox where user select phone model and textbox where a text file is loaded when user select model, I added text files to the project resource because I don't want to put them in files in the root directory of my application

what I need is a code to make text box load the text file wich have the same name of selected in combobox for example when user selct : CT-810 in combobox the text file with name: CT-810 must be loaded in the text box and so on for other combobox records
I have a text file pwd.txt comma delimited, I added in project resources, now i want to read,edit and insert in text file.
