View 1 RepliesI need to refer to some strings using an "indirect string" in the registry. It should be in this form:
@filename,resource
MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.
In a resource string, not one that you declare in the code, but rather in the resources itself, how do I store multiple pieces of data in it?

I'm also pulling info from the bios, disk drives, video, etc. What I've noticed, is although it runs fine on my pc, it may error out on some pcs since it is hardware dependent.I'm having trouble implementing a check to find if it exists before I convert to a string and add it to my overall string.

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to convert an ASCII String to hex for VB 2008. So far I have this :
Code:
Function asc2hex(ByVal StrName As String) As String
Dim loopCount As Integer, strHold As String
For loopCount = 1 To Len(StrName)
strHold = strHold & Hex(Asc(Mid(StrName, loopCount, 1)))
Next loopCount
asc2hex = MsgBox(strHold)

However, It is not reporting all the bytes that it should be. For example: This is the correct format.

Is there a way to convert a string into a linq query? Searching for those words brings up tons of stuff unrelated to what I'm trying to do..For instance, this works, of course...
Dim lstMyQuery = (From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Apple" Select item)
But somehow I want to do this:
Dim strQuery = "From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = " & CHR(34) & "Apples" & CHR(34) & " Select item"
Dim lstMyQuery = (Somehow run/convert strQuery as a query)
The reason is strQuery will be different each time depending on what the user has selected earlier in the program.R if lstMyQuery is already a collection, is there a way to add to it?
Dim lstMyQuery = (From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Apples" Select item)
(this obviously doesn't work, but it's basically what I want to do...)
lstMyQuery.Add(From item in htMyTable.values where item(0) = "Oranges" Select item)

Background Information:
Table: Customer
Fields: CustomerID, Title, Forename, surname, street, town, country, postal code, home phone, mobile phone, work phone, email.
All the data types in this are Strings with the exception of CustomerID.
Table: Country
Fields: CountryID, Country
CountryID = Integer, Country = String
There is a relationship between country.country and customer.country. I have made country a combo box with the contents of country inside it. This problem is resolved if I remove country as an input - but I need it in!
Been a while since I last posted here. I'm busy on a new project and I need to convert a string which represents a IP range (like this: 10.0.0.0-10.0.0.254), to two Base64 strings which represents the first and second IP adress in this range definition. Like this: (start IP: CgAAAA== End IP: CgAA/g==)I've got it to work, but it such an ugly code, and I know it can be done with 2, or at max 4 lines code. But I'm not so handy with the Base64 string conversion jet. So this is where I ask for help from you guys!
Here's what I got (in goes: Apf.Iprange = "10.0.0.0-10.0.0.254")
Dim StartIp As String = Apf.IPRange.Split("-")(0)
Dim EndIp As String = Apf.IPRange.Split("-")(1)
Dim StartNumbers() As String = StartIp.Split(".")

I am very new to coding, though I can understand some of the rreeaallllyy basic stuff. However, I am currently developing a basic webbrowser and I'm stuck =. How do I take text, i.e. a TextBox's text, and save it as a string resource, but I do not want it to have that text as a name, as it can change. I want to store the URL as a string called "Home" but still have it's properties as the URL. I would also like to be able to recall it for when the program loads.

I have a question abour string type resources and hope this is the proper place to ask it.I know how to create a string (type) resource file. I also know how one localizes this file by adding the appropriate language abbreviation (i.e., es, en, etc.) after the name of the file (i.e., str_resource.es.resource).None of this is terribly difficult. However, I haven't been able to fine how to do what I want to do.
Specifically, because I have an enormous number of strings (button labels, labels, registry strings [key_names and values, etc.), error messages and such) I would like to create multiple string resource files - one for each of these items. For example:
