I'm in high doubt of this actually exsisting but still want to check, is there a way so that whether the VB form has focus or not it can still read the keys being typed? I am using winamp and i type something and the form picks it up, so when i type something like ctrl+"exit" the application closes. the thread should be running as the form is Always on top, however for obvious reasons the form does not have focus, so something like keyPressEventArgs won't have an effect, is there any way that you can catch the keys in a global perspective.
I have to inherit some legacy code in company, which is written in Visual Basic.NET 7.0 (Visual Studio.NET 2002). I don't have much experiences in VB.NET, and this line of code gets me in trouble:

I have a solution with 5 visual basic projects in it. Each project has an identical module with a few functions and constants - like handling our RS232 data, outputting events to log files, etc, etc..
If I want to change any of this common code, then I have to manually go through and change in each project. Is there a way to have a single module or class that's shared throughout the projects in the entire solution? I've considered creating and referencing a class library, but I'm likely to be making several little tweaks and changes to this "global code" and that method sounds like it could be just as awkward. Can I not just have a module that's visible to all projects, and compiled into each one seperately when the solution is built?

I have a main form with 2 splitcontainers. On the left is a richtextbox showing the clients details and how many active tickets they have open and cmd buttons which opens different uc's within the container on the right.What I am attempting to do is when a client raises a new ticket, that the global variable holding the ticket count number updates via a procedure and updates the richtextbox on the main form.The line of code that runs within the UC is:
The part I have highlighted errors with the following reason: 'textUserDetails'is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.SplitterPanel'.I have checked and double checked the form names etc and textUserDetails definately exists within formMain.SplitContainer3.Panel2.

Normally CSV files I work with lookes like this : d,e,f,g,1,2,3,4,5 What I am trying to do now is importing a CSV file that contains a title field, HTML description field ect. so at the end the CSV file format looks like this:"Record Title",1,2,3,"HTML description, which contains "",, ect",1,2,3,4,5, I need to know how to work with the above CSV format, where all the strings are inclosed with "" and may contain commas, so I can't use the split function as is to split where it incounters a comma as it may be part of the HTML description or Title field.

I am trying to read in and eventually manipulate an 'XML-type' file. I have picked up a hobby called 'Geocaching', some people probably have heard of it, where you use gps coords to locate items placed by other people. Well, you can download the gps coors within data files from the website,'Geocaching.com' and these files are in a XML format.
There are a lot of programs out there that people offer, some are better than others, but I am not happy with the results. So, I am trying to see how I can use these files myself and create my own program to use the data in a way that I want to use it.
I have tried to use Linq, XMLdocument, XMLreader and probably a couple of others over the past week. I have had marginal sucess with each of these methods, but nothing great and I owe that to my lack of knowledge.
I eventually hope to add the data to a Access db that I am using and manipulate the info from the db.
I am attaching a sample of one of the downloaded files and if someone would have the patience to help me work my way through it, p.s. The file typically ends with '.gpx', but since its an xml and thats what the system recognizes, I added the extension in order to upload the sample file.

My program reads a 3rd party .txt file using OleDb and reads the file into a datatable. It's overall working fine except a user will occasionally have a problem reading a file. At this point.
Line that gets hung up Try Dim comm1 As New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM " & safeFileName & " Where " & Status & " = '" & StatusClosed & "'", con) Dim dasold As New OleDbDataAdapter(comm1) dasold.Fill(dtsold) AddColsold() [Code] .....
It can not retrieve a date for one of the fields, then gives error and does not get dates for each records after the one it gets hung up on but the date is in the file. If I open the file in excel and play with the column sizing, for instance just autoformat column width then it read the date and will work fine. I have looked at the file in notepad and cant see anything wrong in particular on the record it gets hung up on. I have no control over the .txt file since it comes form a 3rd party.

I have created football (American) play creator. When the user is satisfied with a play he has created it is saved it as a file with a .play extension. What I want to do is to cycle through all the files in a folder (probably named after the team), and place each one that has the .play extension into a CList (of ClPlay) collection.I have been able to successfully load one play at a time by using this code...
Dim fs As Stream = New FileStream(diaOpenPlay.FileName, FileMode.Open) Dim bf As Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter = New Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter() Dim Play As CLPlay Play = CType(bf.Deserialize(fs), CLPlay)
...but that was when a specific play was selected from a load dialog box. This time I want to load all the plays in a folder and store it in a collection, and I'm not sure how to modify the above code to do that.
