Quick query...I'm trying to scan a long string and return any values that occur between the tags <FileName> and </FileName> I've got a bit of code here to use regular expressions to return the position of the occurunces of both substrings..Just wanted to find out if there is any way to scan for both substrings within one loop (as im currently doing 2, one for the first substring and one for the 2nd) so I can use something along these lines:
ringlist = Mid(XMLRESP, (startloc + 1), (endloc - 1))
MsgBox(ringlist)
to msg box the value between the substrings...either that or another approach to return the value between the 2 substrings (it can be of variable length)
Dim patternstart As String = "<FileName>"
Dim patternend As String = "</FileName>"
Dim matchesstart As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(XMLRESP, patternstart)

How would I do that? Sample code is below that demonstrated that the file I opened contained the full path and file name.
I want to extract just the path and serialize that to the user.config file as a UserSetting value. Then next time the user opens the dialog box, it uses that saved path string to go immediately to the location previously used.
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Properties.Settings.Default.persistConnectionType = openFileDialog1.FileName
Properties.Settings.Default.Save();

View 6 RepliesI have a Listview on my form with different files. I can selet a file en open it with the proces start method. To open the file i use the OpenFileDialog method and select the filename. This work very good. With the code below.
My question is if there is a method to get the selected file without using the OpenFileDialog Box. So when i dubbelclick the selected file the proces will start with open the selected file. Something like:
proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.SelectedCell.FileName
instead of proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.OpenFileDialog1.FileName
PS) May be i can preduce the Filename using the OpenFileDialog method on the background.
Private Sub ListView1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseDoubleClick
If Me.OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

View 2 RepliesWhen changing a textbox border style to "none," and the font size to anything higher than the default 8.5, everything is fine unless if the letter goes downward ('g', 'y', 'j', etc). This is most noticeable with the g. I've linked a picture here, and I have no solution to have each character come out clearly. If I'm using another textbox border, it works fine. If I use the font size of 8.5, it's fine, but I can't have no border and a larger font. Though the textbox changes size it does not change enough to show the tail of the g. I can't change the size of the textbox because i

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.

i've been trying for a few hours to get the text of a window in a game (a window not owned by my application). i have used a couple different spy programs, and none of them have found the text, either. they display "custom1" for the window's text. it's the play by play window of a baseball text based game. is it possible that some applications are just impossible to get text from?

View 13 RepliesI am trying to find all text from a slightly older application. The thing is, the old scripit from windows NT finds the text I need no problem, but I cant seem to get it myself.
I find the main window, and cycle through its children, but must be looking at something wrong. I am missing 2 things: The title of the app has the name, and then some status information, the status information does not show up on the window title info. The text in the application itself does not reveal itself to me either
Here is a code snippet of how I try to get the info out:
Private Sub gettext(ByVal hd As IntPtr)
Dim Hwnd As IntPtr = hd

View 5 RepliesI searched the forums to look for an answer and I found several good exemples, but unfortunately, none worked for me..I want to make a little program to read an Edit field on another window. I understand the basic. I need to get the handle of the main window (using FindWindow) and then find the handle of the Edit field (Using FindWindowEx). So far, so good... I think I managed to get those two correctly doing:
Declare Auto Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal strClassName As String, ByVal strWindowText As String) As Long Declare Auto Function FindWindowEx Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd1 As Long, ByVal hWnd2 As Long, ByVal lpsz1 As String, ByVal lpsz2 As String) As Long
Dim hWindow, hText As Long
hWindow = FindWindow("", "Text")
hText = FindWindowEx(hWindow, 0, "Edit", vbNullString)
(Yes the window title is Text :P). Ok now when I do a MsgBox(hText) it does show a long number (not 0) so I believe it found the Edit field (but I'm not so sure on how to verify if it's the right number... tried Spy++ with no luck).Now, this is where I'm stuck. I know I have to use SendMessage() with WM_GETTEXTLENGTH and WM_GETTEXT which I tried maybe in 100 different ways and none of them worked. I either got an OverflowException or my String would stay empty.
