VB Express Conversion From ASCII Char To Hex
Jun 23, 2009
I read in a unique file type, its called .pkm, it's just a collection of hex data. Anyways, I'm using VB Express 2005 (or 2008 since it's free), and I read in the file, and printed out the values. It printed out the ASCII character equivalent, so all I saw were the weird symbols and all (the hex characters in this file do not convert using ASCII). What I want to do is convert it to hex so I can see what the hex values are.
Code:
Dim file As String
Dim data1 As String
file = "D:Documents and SettingsownerDesktopPokemon7-10-08_10ANNIV_ENG_Lugia.pkm"
[Code].....
Too bad image code is off. That is a screen from a hex editor that reads it in properly. Currently my program displays it the way it is seen on the right, but I need it displayed the way it is on the left, in plain hex.

I have split a string into a char array, now i need to copy the char array to an int array with the ASCII values of each char.Don´t know how to do it without looping each value.
This is my code:
origen = RichTextBox1.Text.ToString
Dim valor As Char() = origen.ToCharArray
Dim numeros As Integer() = (How can i convert "valor" to an int array?????)

I have a string of ASCII in HEX. ( 5A65726f)so first i split them into 2s >>>> 5A 65 72 6f then i change the hex to integer using these integer i convert them to char using chr() it did the job great, i can see the correct word i want..but it give me an error saying " make sure it has the right format" ( error shown below)
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim hexnum As String
Dim converttohex As String
Dim hextonum As Integer
[code]....
i thought it was the for loop problem...since i will go up to 7 while len(hexnum) is 8 so it would loop again but there is nothing after 8th HEX?so i tried For i = 1 To Len(hexnum)-1 Step 2 ...this time...textbox didnt show anything...+ the same error came up...

Simple question, what would be the optimum code in VB2010 to read in a text file and verify that:1) It is a text file, and2) There are no non-ASCII characters anywhereAnd conversely, we would want the code to provide a warning if the file is not a text file, or if the text file contains non-ASCII characters. [Note that LF, CR and EOF are expected to be in the text file, and should not be flagged as errors]

I want to convert some integer number to char. Basically i am writing these char to serial port to get response from modbus implemented hardware.
TempStr = Convert.ToChar(gSlaveNo) & Convert.ToChar(HOLDING_REGISTER_READ) & Convert.ToChar(writeAddressHigh) & Convert.ToChar(writeAddressLow) & Convert.ToChar(noOfRegistersHigh) & Convert.ToChar(noOfRegistersLow)

I have a code for converting characters to it's ASCII-value. I want to display this in a textBox, but when I stuff it into a ForLoop VB says that the Index is outside the bounds of the array... if I take the L-1 (see code below) I miss the first character...
Private Sub btnRecieve_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs

I'm making a "wrapper" for an unmanaged DLL (written, I'm fairly certain in C). I have a c++ "wrapper" that I'm trying to convert to VB.net. I've got most of the program working, but I've hit a brick wall.
I'm trying to convert the following two structures from their c++ versions to their vb.net versions. I cannot be sure which is the problem because both must be passed at the same time. The error I am getting is thrown by the object and indicates "Invalid structure size specified". I can cause this error on other objects when I either don't set the dwSize variable, leave off a parameter or change the parameter type incorrectly. Note that the dwSize parameter is supposed to contain the size of each structure. I'm successfully calculating that for my other structures and I'm using the same method on these and the results appear correct, so I do not believe the problem is found there. The object uses a lot of structures and the rest of them are working. These two are the only ones with a) an unsigned character pointer b) an unsigned long array and c) doubles.
C++ versions:
CODE:
I don't think I'm missing any parameters - the help file seems to agree with me on this, but it's theoretically possible that there is something missing (though I don't think so for other reasons as well). My suspicion is that it's dwPalette, pImageData or pMaskData with (in my uninformed opinion) more suspicion on the pImageData and pMaskData.

I`m trying to write a programme ,in VB2008 Express, to receive Serial Port Ascii data ( from a Multimeter) and display it as Hex Data in a textbox. I can get the Ascii data to show, but just cannot convert it into Hex. Once I can do this I want to write a new front end for the Mulimeter software.
This is what i`ve written so far :
Imports System
Imports System.IO.Ports
Imports System.Text

I am using Microsoft.VisualBasic.Fileio.TextFieldParser to parse a CSV file that was created with Excel 2003. The parser is working great with the exception that it is converting extended ascii values to question marks! So if the file content was:
± 3
The TextFieldParser is returning
? 3
I have tried all of the encodings in the System.Text.Encoding package with no luck. I thought I had it with UTF7 but it was dropping other characters like replacing the + sign with a space.

I am converting a VB6 program to VB express and am having a couple of problems. One of them is a problem with the variable "strEncTemp". I have the warning "Variable strEncTemp is used before it has been assigned a value", and I can't assign a value to this variable without creating issues. It also seems that a null value is being returned and the code produced by this routine is corrupt. This seems to be the last issue I have in converting the code. I tried setting it to 0 but it then shuts down the program with an error. This is the portion of code that has the warning and produces a null value. [Code]

Does anybody knows if it is possible to convert a numeric value into a System.Drawing.Color (or Pen) value? I need to implement the following code:MyBitmap.SetPixel(x,y,MyColor)
MYColor is a long integer and does not work because the above code needs a system color.

I'm working on decoding a NMEA sentence that is a compressed 8-bit string. I'm having a very hard time of wrapping my head around the bit manipulation needed to convert this string. If someone could get me started with this it would be great.
Here is the incomming string:
!AIVDM,1,1,,A,14eG;o@034o8sd<L9i:a;WF>062D,0*7D
and here is the expected output:

So I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

I'm creating a program in VB.net that does the following:At a high level I receive a file in email, put the attachment in a monitored folder, import the text file to excel, format the excel, and then email the excel file to a list of recipients.
Here is my plan:
Completed: Outlook VBA to monitor all incoming email for specific message. Once message is received drop attached .txt file in a specific network folder.
Completed: (VB.net) Monitor folder, when text file is added begin processing
Not Complete: (VB.net) Import text file to Excel
Not Complete: (VB.net) Format Excel Text file.(add in a row of data,format column headers with color/size, add some blank columns, add data validation to some of the blank columns that allow drop down selections)
Completed: (VB.net) Save file.
Completed: (VB.net) Send file to list of recipients.
Obviously the items above that are not complete are the bulk of the work, but I wanted to get some advice on what some of you think would be the best way to approach something like this. The import and formatting of the file are causing me some problems because I just can't decide what would be the most efficient way to do this.
The way stated above. Import to excel -> format Having a template excel that contains all of the formatting already done for me and attempting to transition the data to this document (no clue if/how I can do this). Is it even feasible? Have the template already created and then import the text file to a new excel file, then transition that data to the excel template?
Something I thought about, in terms of formatting the document, was to record a macro of me doing all of the formatting that I'm going to need and then attempt to convert that macro into my vb.net code, but I'm not sure if that will work. I will need to verify that the text file comes in the EXACT format every time correct?

I'm just using the default SQL Server Express in my vb 2008 express edition as my database server for my database operation. When I tried to update the records on my table I got a runtime error which indicates the error on this line 'myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()'and it highlights a yellow background on it. The runtime error says "SqlException was unhandled: An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near 'Number'. ".

I tried to start using VB 2010 Express with a program I originally developed with VB 2005 Express that I moved to VB 2008 Express successfully a couple years ago. It uses a database file (*.mdf) that is on the computer ( not out on a server). When attempt to run the program in debug mode, I get the following error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsTomMy DocumentsQuizzing StuffQuestion Database 2010QuizQuest ionGameQuizQuestionGameinReleaseQuizQuestionDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
I first made a copy of the entire project folder that was working in VB 2008 Express and gave it a different name. In VB2010 I opened the project in the copied folder and it said it successfully converted the project. I am able to open the Data Source inthe Designer and see the database structure as I expect. I think the project is still using SQL Server 2005 Express (because it is what is checked in the list of prerequisites on the Publish tab).
Note, I have programmed off and on for many years, but fairly new to using databases and SQL Server.
