View 14 RepliesI am a CS grad, but haven't had much to do with programming since my school days as I went the BA route.Anyways, there are a few things that I do manually on the computer and thought that I could probably save time by creating an application for them.But I'm not really sure how to start.I'd like to be able to keep a history of Completed eBay listing so that I know when the price point is good and when it is too high.I noticed that eBay has an RSS feed, so I think I can do it. Just a couple of quick questions:
1 - Can I instruct VB.net to open a web browser and read an RSS feed, or would I need to manually do this myself and then run the application?
2 - What is the best way to work with RSS feeds? Should I convert the data into XML first?
how to convert rss feeds to datagrid in this fomat
<Row>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Symbol</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Close</Data></Cell>
<Cell><Data ss:Type="String">Prev</Data></Cell>
[code]....
the values in the first <row> </row> of data are the column headings for the corresponding cells in the other <row> </row>considering that I can work with xml in the other format this is quite strange so any help will be needed.
I am working on a program which can list all news from a webpage ( url...), but I have problems to get the news. I know that it is possible to get the rss feeds where all the news are listed ( for this example it's url...) via XML to LINQ ( I need all links, titles and descriptions ), but I have no knowledge in it

View 4 RepliesI've integrated a bit of code into my project using Visual Basic, that reads RSS feeds. It works absolutely fine. I did however intend it to read Facebook notifications to users of my program. The idea was, if you go on Facebook, clikc Notifications, click See All Notifications, click via RSS, you get an RSS feed right there. When I use the address in the address bar for my project's RSS reader though, I just get an error.
Like I said, it works for other feeds, just not working for Facebook notifications.
I have a requirement to consume only the latest two rss feeds (using .NET) to reduce latency in reading RSS. I found plenty of examples to consume RSS. However, I did not find any to limit the feeds being read. And, this is not for a windows forms application.
View 2 RepliesThis seems to be a great article by Scott Mitchell for creating syndicated feeds in ASP.NET 3.5. The problem for me is that it uses C# and Linq, which I'm not as sharp on at the current time.[URL]...Does anyone know where an example might exist for the System.ServiceModel.Syndication namespace that can produce a syndicated feed like this article using VB.NET and a SQLConnection object?
I've looked around and every example seems to be produced in C# and Linq (which is probably a testament to my need to learn them soon rather than later).

I get a Null Reference Exception on the next to last line of code. (Object reference not set to an instance of an object.) The line that begins with "Temperature.Text = .......". If I remove the last two lines of code the program works.If I edit the last two line to read "yweather:condition/@temp, and yweather:condition/@date" instead of what's shown above, the program works. I think it has something to do with the XML NameSpaceManager not being setup correctly.
I have a form that contains a RichTextBox control that I have set to multiline. I also have a menu item that allows the user to save the contents of the RichTextBox as either a .rtf document or a .txt document. Here's the code I'm using so far:
If sfdSaveTextFile.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
m_strDocFileLocation = sfdSaveTextFile.FileName
m_strDocFileExtension = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(m_strDocFileLocation)
[Code]....
into the RichTextBox control (rtb) then saves as a text file this would save the text file like: "TempTemp"
Is there any way to write to the text file with line feeds included?

View 3 RepliesI am monitoring 12 video feeds from video cameras. Now I have more than 12 cameras, I have 134. But I will only monitor 12 cameras at a time. By Monitoring I mean, I have 12 small video screens on the form that I can see the video. The way I know which cameras are active, so I can monitor them is by a boolean value in a sql database. I run a Store Procedure in my program, and spit out the results in a XML file. I then read the XML file in a loop. This XML file will have a list of the camera names I need to monitor.
So that is for 12 video feeds. Now, I want to have a NEXT or FORWARD button on my monitor form. So when I click this it will give me the next group of cameras, 13 to 24. Now if I only have15 cameras that are active, that means the first group is 1 to 12, then the second group is 13 to 15 cameras. So I will only have 3 to monitor on the second grouping. One thought I had was to have another field in my table to mark as already as an active monitor, so when I run the SP, i will not select that row. But I need to select 12 at a time. Or I can make a number of xml files, one xml file for each grouping of 12, but I need to figure out how I can select the next group without re-selecting the first group. I have no code at the moment, I'm on my non-programming computer.

What tool can I use to convert C# 3 to VB.Net 9 .Net 3.5?
View 5 Repliesi have created a tool written in C# that would parse string (from 3 files) using regular expressions then throw all the matches in a grid. It works fine on my machine.. It returns matches from those 3 input files.. The problem is when i use that tool (.exe) in other machines..there are no errors. The program works fine for the first 2 files.. but doesn't return matches on the 3rd file.I tried copying the codes in one of the machines just to trace the problem, but when i run the program, it suddenly worked fine.. from then, the program is working fine on that machine.

View 2 RepliesI am working on a project that currently uses a .tiff, compares the defined template document to the document in question. We are moving away from the .tiff format for a variety of reasons but mainly because the new files will be coming in the format of PDF. I see two potential solutions to the issue. First convert the PDF to a tiff and use the existing code. Or second, use a PDF library that will compare the template PDF to the PDF that is received. Because the PDF that is received will basically come from an outside source we won't know for sure if it is text based or image based so the library or tool will have to be able to compare both.
