I'm writing a simple function to verify if a given user or group exists in my domain, here is the code:
Dim ctxDomain As New PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain)
Dim upX As UserPrincipal
upX = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(ctxDomain, IdentityType.SamAccountName, strUser[code].....
if I pass a user the function works well if I pass a group the function return always false, why?
I am currently aiming to implement a read-only role provider for an ASP.NET application based on domain security groups using the utilities in the System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement assembly. I have the following piece of code which works fine on my development domain, but fails in the deployment environment:
Using myContext As New PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, Nothing, "DC=My,DC=Controller", accountName, accountPassword)
Try
Dim p As UserPrincipal = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(myContext, IdentityType.SamAccountName, userName)
[code]....
I know the obvious "gotcha" here is to be certain the object actually, well... exists on the server. However, I can confirm without a doubt that no matter which account's SAM Account Name I use, I receive the same result from the call. Additionally, Microsoft's ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider has no trouble authenticating against the same SAM Account Name and I am able to find the object using that information with the DirectorySearcher class. The only differences I can identify between the development network and deployment is that the deployment environment's DC is a Windows Server 2003 box, whereas locally I am developing with a Windows Server 2008 DC. What might I be overlooking?
I'm writing a program which assists users update passwords for our windows systems and some other applications. Everything is working except when I call the UserPrincipal.Current.ChangePassword command cached credentials are not updated like they are when you change a password using the windows OS password change.
That is: when a remote user who is VPN'd in uses my application to change passwords, when they reboot and VPN is disconnected, they are forced to login to windows using there old password.
Is there a way I can force windows to update the cached credentials to the new password so upon reboot they are able to login using this new password?

If I typed in "Dim X as Integer" in a text box, I figured that I could just use If TextBox1.contains to make vb.net dim it. However, how would, if I typed "X = 3y * 9" in the text box, actually calculate that and print it in another text box?

View 2 RepliesI'm using a Microsoft Word form template to create objects in a form programatically, so depending on the information read by the program from the template.
So, I've got some fields where I store formula data for the form, in which I specify that the value for that field is obtained by multiplying other fields in the template. So I store in the string something like this:
"Text1.Text * Text2.Text"
So I need to convert these string values into variable calls to actually operate these values.
I have an interface that i have declared some of the basic internal functions, subs, properties, etc. This interface is then implemented into 3 pre-defined classes. These classes are end-use classes so they dont get derived or inherited elsewhere. I am trying to create a generic shared class that can operate on each of these 3 predefined classes and potentially more as long as they implement the interface.

I have a block of related sub routines I would like to "group" together within class to make navigating a littel easier. When I say group, I mean achieve the same functionality of being able collapse and expand a block of code as would with single procedure or class. Two alternative ways I can think to accomplish this is either use a partial class for those procedures or use namespace. I just wanted to see if VS for VB.Net had another way to be able group and collapse blocks of procedures.

View 2 RepliesI have a string of hexadecimal numbers that is generated by the program which I created.
B 53 D0 A1 58 3 DA AF E2 15 9E E 68 F0 65
Given by:
HexText = HexText & " " 'the space makes the characters separated into groups
I want the single characters "B" and "E" would both have 0's before them so that the text is all in groups of twos. How can this be done?
0B 53 D0 A1 58 3 DA AF E2 15 9E 0E 68 F0 65
instead of:
B 53 D0 A1 58 3 DA AF E2 15 9E E 68 F0 65
I was thinking I might be able to do a for Loop and go through the text and if it's a single character add a 0 before but don't understand the exact syntax behind it:
For i = 1 to Len(HexText.Text)
'If a character in a group of two of the string is not equal to a hexadecimal number, make that character equal to 0.

I have a problem that I can not fix.
I have a listview with a group. The property view is SmallIcon
On my windows xp everything works perfectly, but I tried the same thing on Windows 7, and I have this problem: When I add a bit of items in the listview I have some strange display problems, no errors.I made some screenshots to let you know
I want to know if it is possible to nest groups within a listview. I started with a listview in my application that contains list types and this worked fine. I have now been asked to group by Product, then Week Commencing and finally by List Type; This would envolve a 3 group nest and i just cant figure out how to do it (if at all possible).
like so...

If what I am trying to accomplish is beyond the listview control, can anyone suggest a possible avenue to explore?
How, if it's possible, you can make a combobox have groups like the html example below:
<select>
<optgroup label="Swedish Cars">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
</optgroup>

View 1 RepliesI am writing an application where active directory validation is required before accessing the main form. There are 2 forms. Form 2 is the login form and form 1 is the main form. The main form would have a simple look, with about 10 checkboxes.I have managed to get the authentication working great but what now need to do is validate groups. Say if "user A" is in "groups A,B and C" and "user B" is in "groups B and C" i would like for them to use my login form, once they log in, the groups that they are members of would appear in a listbox on either form, (whichever is easiest) and is hidden from the user ... if they are in group A, then the main form would show only the first 3 checkboxes, if they are in group B, then it would show the 4th and 5th checkboxes, if in both groups then show the first 5 checkboxes etc.It is a simple idea, but is complicated to explain.As i said, the login form is working with the active directory... here is the code for the login form:[code]Form1 in the code is my main form, and wish for it to change according to which groups the user is in.

The listview is set to details view. What I want to do is group the book titles by series. For example, books by Michael Connelly may be grouped by "Harry Bosch", "Jack McEvoy", "Mickey Haller", etc. I can create a new group for each new series by
groupnum += 1
group = New ListViewGroup("group" & groupnum, _
System.Windows.Forms.HorizontalAlignment.Left)
group.Name = "group" & groupnum
group.Header = series
But I cannot find how to add the group to the listview and add the new item to the associated group.
on button.click event,Dim category As New ListViewGroup(cbType.Text) If Listview.Groups.Contains(category) Then Arggh! this should work. Listview.Items.Add(lvi).Group = category
Else
Listview.Groups.Add(category)
Listview.Items.Add(lvi).Group = category
End If
If cbType.Text was "Dog", it will add another "dog" group header every time I add an item having selected dog, when I want to add the item to the existing dog group.
does a big business in shirts, especially for groups and teams. They need a project that will calculate the price for individual orders, as well as a summary for all orders.The store employee will enter the orders in an order form that has text boxes for customer name and order number. To specify the shirts, use a text box for the quantity, radio buttons to select the size (small, medium, large, extra large, and XXL), and check boxes to specify a monogram and/or a pocket. Display the shirt price for the current order and the order total in labels.
Include buttons to add a shirt to an order, clear the current item, complete the order, and display the summary of all orders. Do not allow the summary to display if the current order is not complete. Also, disable the text boxes for customer name and order number after an order is started; enable them again when the user clicks on the button to begin a new order. Confirm the operation before clearing the current order.
When the user adds shirts to an order, validate the quantity, which must be greater than zero. If the entry does not pass the validation, do not perform any calculation but display a message box and allow the user to correct the value. Determine the price of the shirts from the radio buttons and check boxes for the monogram and pockets. Multiply the quantity by the price to determine the extended price, and add to the order total and summary total
The assignment also requires a pop up message "Daily Summary" with total shirts sold, total sales, and average sale per customer.So far I have this as my code but I am not sure what needs to change in order to display the correct total shirts- mine only displays the last accepted shirt order.

View 1 RepliesFor a race, I am trying to evenly disperse the heats for smaller race groups within those of larger race groups. I do not want the smaller groups to finish too early and I am also trying to minimize groups running back to back heats.

Group A has 4 heats
Group B has 2 heats
Group C has 1 heat
The resulting schedule would look something like this:
A1 B1 A2 C1 A3 B2 A4
To complicate things, there could be any number of race groups and each race group can have any number of heats.
I'm building an control interface for a system that consists of 1-4 modules. In my interface, each module has its own control set, grouped in a groupbox. I only want to show the control groups for the modules that are actually connected and hide the rest.
This is easy to do with the visble property.
I also want all of the groups to be stacked vertically in the UI such that when one is hidden, the rest below it shift up into its place as if you deleted a row in a table. It needs to be able to come back just as easily.
I have a group of graphic ellipses that I need to arrange in a group. 12 groups actually. It's a matrix for traing guitar students. I have the locations of the "G" notes grouped so far, but not under the title "G notes group". Since I can't use ellipses outside of the paint event handler, I have to rename them, I guess in the event handler...
Here's what I have so far...
Dim
GroupG As e.Graphics.FillEllipse(Brushes.Green, 84, 6, 10, 10) And
e.Graphics.FillEllipse(Brushes.Green, 84, 106, 10, 10)
e.Graphics.FillEllipse(Brushes.Green, 24, 46, 10, 10)
e.Graphics.FillEllipse(Brushes.Green, 124, 66, 10, 10)

The paint event handler does not accept my attempts to declare them as a group, & this is my first ever project with graphics in an active state.

I need to use RegEx.Replace to replace only certain named groups in my input string.
So I might have a pattern like:

Tokens such as CM, RM are being replaced using Regex.Replace with a MatchEvaluator. However, this should only be replacing characters in the FirstPeriod and LastPeriod groups.
Example input:
"FIELDCNS 01CM"
Desired output:

Is this possible or am I best just pulling out the parts I want to replace and re-assembling afterwards?
