I'm going through All-In-One Code Framework Coding Standards document and one of the recommendations is to add a file header comment at the start of every human-created code file. This is the first time I've seen such a recommendation and to me it's just an unnecessary and ugly clutter but I'm wondering if someone could explain why M$ recommends this?

I'm using the following code to populate a DataGridView with a worksheet. This is working fine, however, I'm unsure how I can get the Text from the page header. (not to be confused with the column header). Later in my code when I am exporting into an existing workbook with a new worksheet, I'm wanting to use the header text as the tab name. The header text being "September 2009" so that when I import/manipulate/export october, the new tab will be "October 2009" etc. [Code]
View 1 Replieshowever, I am stuck at BinaryReader.actually this is what i am trying to acheive through VB.NET.say for the following file type :
JPG file = FF D8 FF E0
BMP file = 42 4D BE 4E
PNG file = 89 50 4E 47
GIF file = 47 49 46 38
the above are the 4-byte headers in Hex(raw) I need to read these headers of any given file using OpenFileDialog using Button1_click event,on selection of any given file(*.* filters ON)it should use the BinaryReader and look for only 4-bytes starting from offset 0, and it should not go to EOF marker (-1).and have a variable to hold this 4-byte header value, to run this in a database table which will check the same header value in the table and would display the corresponding extension of the file. from the table.
I can do this using case, if then...etc.however, I have to do it using Database and also i need to check for testing purpose to use MsgBox() to display this variable which is holding the 4-byte header.however, the MsgBox doesnt allow anything other than String.
PS: I tried studying the methods like:
FileOpen/Seek/Peek/ReadBytes().
but still not sure how to get them work.
in my application i created table called houseloading which has field called housename.which is inserted into the sqlserver database. my table will look like this
///column name house
values red

what i want now is i want to display the values red green as column header in datagridview
which will look exactly like this
red green
I have a csv file generated with headings on the first row and data on the rest. The file varies each time and I have to have all these values for further usage. I'm using File.ReadAllLines(path) but could ignore the header row.
View 2 RepliesI have a SSIS package to read CSV file and generate a Flat file. In the CSV file, first line is having the column names. I have to verify whether column names are in order, if not i have to produce a error. I have to use a script task for this one. I read the first line using readline method and split the line with commas, the problem is the file having a multiple line column names, means column names include new line character also. So how to get the column names from the header?
View 1 RepliesI have been working off and on for a year on my own media browser that I created in VB.NET. My program will play MP3 playlists as well as supporting drag and drop
Getting fileinfo of an mp3 is no problem but I have discovered that it is more complex when I try to get file duration of video files (.avi,.mpg) etc.
My code listed below uses a timer. In order for me to get a video duration value, I must actually play the file in axwindowsmediaplayer1 for one second. This seems not practical.
I have seen many examples on the internet in C# that read video metadata without need to play/load the file. Why are there no examples in vb.net of this? Is it too difficult to achieve in vb.net?[code]...

Just recently got into experimenting with NLog, and it occurs to me that I would like to be able to add header information to the top a log file such as:
Executable name
File version
Release Date
Windows User ID
etc...
After some searching I have been unable to find anything in the existing on-line documentation or code forums which indicates this type of functionality. Is this possible? I have always previously included this sort of information in log files, and have found it useful on numerous occsions in the past, when sourcing information on production issues at customer sites. Admittedly, this functionality was custom built for the solutions and not based on any of the current .NET logging frameworks.
I'm using vb express 08 and I'm writing a program that requires the name of (and possibly location) as the form header as well as the name of the program itself.
for example; when you open MS Word, the title displayed at the top is [file name] - Microsoft Word
I'm wondering how I can go about creating something like a header file to contain some verbose functions I don't want to have to look at after I get them created. Something like in c++ like..
#include "classfunctions.h" to hide all the nasty stuff you don't want anyone to see.
For my project, I need to develop an app, which will have MS-SQL db with 4 tables
a>FileHeader
b>FileFooter
c>Extension
d>Detail about the file.
This is all to do with the Magic Numbers, or File header and footer, found in all files. The first 4-byte and last 4-bytes.
Example:
Suppose a word DOC file when read using this app should return and match the values
D0 CF 11 E0
So, how can I read the files using vb.net, fileIO, FileStream/StreamClass/FileReader? I just need to open the file and read the first 4 and last 4 bytes of any given file. And then it should connect back to the SQL database and lookup for the matching values from the tables as I had mentioned. And return a match found or not found.
I have to read in several thousand lines of a EDI 4010 or 5010 formatted file into a database. This is medical claims data. In my current process I read each row of the file and parse it into a string array. I then assign each value of the array to a string variable and when I detect a new claim header or detail record I write the variables to the SQL server in a SQL insert statement. Example below

View 1 RepliesI have a weird requirement to parse a file which is a comma separated string with repeating header..i have a file which i load into database and this gets populated as a single column string with header and details data:something like this (This is single COLUMN String in a table). SSIS is not able to handle this so i am trying to know..If it is possible using writhing VB.Net custom component.[code]Also, if i can pass the values of header (i.e. header3, header5, header7 and header10) as a variable would be ideal.

View 1 RepliesI'm making a small scripting engine in C# and I was wondering, is there some sort of #compiler directives or some sort of other header-like file I can compile with my script files to define what Managed Dlls my script files are referencing?
[Code]...
I would love to be able to eliminate this line of code:Parameters.ReferencedAssemblies.AddRange(References);and put that information in my scripts instead. The problem is I do not necessarily know ahead of time what .dlls the scripts are going to reference. My current solution right now is to parse a custom "script.cs.refs" file that looks something like this:"System.dll","System.Data.dll","SomeOther.dll","Ect.dll" where visual studio stores your references to dlls and if it has to be defined in a separate file, if there is a standardized format I should be using that I can load into the compiler that tells it this information,
I wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to read the "FrameSize" from the header of a SWF file. I know it starts from the 9th byte and that it is 9 bytes long. I am getting stuck on the next part though... What I now need to do is read the first 5 bits of the FrameSize ByteArray in order to determine how many bits make up the remaining 4 sections of the tag. Then I need to read each of those sections to get the data I need.
I've been googling for ages and trying different things, but I am still clueless on howto grab the first 5 bits and turn them into a usable value that I can then use to navigate the remaining bits.

I have an application where a datagridview is used to display some data, a datatable is bounded to it, and I want to put some text in the front of some rows to indicate that they are different from others. My code checks the rows and used the following
mydatagridview.Rows.Item(iCnt).HeaderCell.Value = "A"
To set the row header values, it was fine when the data was first loaded. However, when I sort the datagridview by clicking the column header, these rowheadercell values disappear. How to keep the row header values after the sorting?

View 4 RepliesI'm working in Visual Basic 2008 Express. My application uses a number of Message Boxes.When each appears, it has a blue bar at the top with words in it. Each bar has the same words, something like BSDEld 14-5-08. The words have nothing to do with the application and I'd rather not see them there. Can anyone suggest how I can get rid of them, or change them to something more acceptable?
View 5 RepliesI am working with GDI+ to draw backgrounds for my forms. I have a main form with 4 tabs, which all flicker. There is a gradient background behind them (bitmap drawn in GDI+ at Form_Load). I have double buffering enabled in the following manner:
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint Or ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint Or ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer Or ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True)
Everything on the form rarely flickers. The only times are when I am resizing, the numerous docked controls on my piece-o-junk netbook flicker momentarily, which is hardly noticeable. On a normal laptop it runs quite smoothly.The problem of which I speak is right on the headers of each tab (the white rectangle with text on it). When I move my cursor on or off of it, it will flicker. What is actually happening is that it is momentarily disappearing then re-appearing. This seems to be a control paint bug.I've tried the following override, without success.

I have a Form that load the contents of a txt type file into a textbox1. How can I use the filename to fill in a label?For example, when I open the file Name1.txt, the textBox2 need to display Name1 only as a type of header.
Alternatively, is there a code that make the first line of a Multiline Textbox to display a different font or size ?
