I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.

I am just wondering if there is any DLLs or features in VB.Net 2008 that I could use to parse a picture of text to text (for example, a screenshot), assuming the text are in very recognizable format (i.e., not like CAPTCHA type of text).

I searched the forums to look for an answer and I found several good exemples, but unfortunately, none worked for me..I want to make a little program to read an Edit field on another window. I understand the basic. I need to get the handle of the main window (using FindWindow) and then find the handle of the Edit field (Using FindWindowEx). So far, so good... I think I managed to get those two correctly doing:
Declare Auto Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal strClassName As String, ByVal strWindowText As String) As Long Declare Auto Function FindWindowEx Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd1 As Long, ByVal hWnd2 As Long, ByVal lpsz1 As String, ByVal lpsz2 As String) As Long
Dim hWindow, hText As Long
hWindow = FindWindow("", "Text")
hText = FindWindowEx(hWindow, 0, "Edit", vbNullString)
(Yes the window title is Text :P). Ok now when I do a MsgBox(hText) it does show a long number (not 0) so I believe it found the Edit field (but I'm not so sure on how to verify if it's the right number... tried Spy++ with no luck).Now, this is where I'm stuck. I know I have to use SendMessage() with WM_GETTEXTLENGTH and WM_GETTEXT which I tried maybe in 100 different ways and none of them worked. I either got an OverflowException or my String would stay empty.

I need to make a program for school that closes the active window. My application does now SendKeys.Send("%{F4}"). It works but, it also does it when there are no active windows. I want it to close only the active windows.

I know how to add images to Form Controls by using the Property Window.However I am trying to use Icons on the form to indicate error.Example: If this condition is true, display this image, else display that image.
I could do this using multiple labels on top of each other but wondering if there is an easier way.

The app i am working on is for creating theme for the iPod touch... It has to deal with LOTS of images (100's potentially) There will be the set of default images, and then the user created replacement images. I started loading all the defaults into a resx file... thinking then I could just pull them out. now that I started setting the default, this sucks! lol the app will do this, on load it will set all the images (variables) to the resx images then when a theme is loaded, it will replace the default with the user image (if the user img exists) otherwise, the default stays. Then the "screen" is drawn to show the user. so, here is just the images to build the wallpaper, dock, and status bar...

I am currently working on a launcher, and it must consist of the following:
- one main routine being called, NO WINDOW may be created at any times after or before this main routine.
- one small form called by the main routine if a certain command was sent through the Command (shortcut).
At this point I use a Windows Form, but it seems a little useless to create and initialize a form if you won't even use it. Any way to make a routine run when my program starts without showing any window? But still make it possible to show that small dialog?
I did this at first but it seems a bit dangerous:
'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer 'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer. 'Do not modify it using the code editor.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> _
Private Sub InitializeComponent()
Main()
End Sub
Sub Main()
'Code to run here
End Sub
It starts another program (process) which has a GUI, so I do not want to display a console window.

I designed my program for my screen resolution (1680x1050) with all forms in maximized mode. I gave the program to a freind whose laptop has a lower screen resolution than mine. Now on a lot of the forms she cannot see some of the controls because of the lower screen resolution. I added the minimize, restore down and close buttons to the forms of my program but in the restore down mode the form does not scale down to show all the controls on the form. How can I incorporate scalabilty into the forms so that all the controls will be visible in the restore down mode.

I am starting to develop a card game client for a CCG a friend of mine and I are creating.
I have 2 forms Client.vb and Hand.vb linked with a module.vb
In essence when the app starts up I see the client. I can then click the "Hand" button and the Hand Window is shown as well.
What my goal is is to have it so that when i hover over the card (picturebox) in my hand form that it displays a larger image of that card in the preview box (Another picture box) In Client.vb
I have everything working except when i actually mouse over the image in the hand form it creates an error:
Error:A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in CCG 2.0.exe
The code in the mouse hover event:
Code:
F1.PictureBox2.Image = F2.PictureBox1.Image
Im Almost certain im going about this the wrong way but I cant seem to figure out any other way...
PS.I have attached an image to demonstrate what Im trying to do...

i am trying to figure out how to go about finding this window's label when the control name is the same as all the other labels on the program.
WindowsForms10.STATIC.app.0.378734a
WindowsForms10.STATIC.app.0.378734a
WindowsForms10.STATIC.app.0.378734a
All 3 labels are named the same. The one i am most interested in is a progress % counter (1%, 2%, 3%, etc..)How can i get the value (using a timer of course) from that label without knowing the caption of it at any given time?

I have a number of image files name image1.gif image2.gif image3.gif etc upto image52.gif
I want to display an image in a picturebox dependant upon a value wich is generated elsewhere in the app, so that if '3' is generated I a picturebox to display image3.gif
if 2 is generated image2.gif. However I have 52 such images to be displayed in 16 picture boxes so I was wondering
if there is a more efficient way than a select case method for each image and each picture box.

I have written an application in which, among other things, there is a picture browser, allowing the user to load and look at pictures (jpeg-type). So I thought it would be nice if they could print their nice pictures too. And here is where all my problems started. I've tried almost all the code examples given to me, but none works. Isn't that strange?
I want:
a) The user will click the print button and the print dialogue will appear and thus enable him or her to choose wich printer to use
b) When the choice is made, click OK or PRINT or WHATEVER and the picture/photo will appear on a piece of paper which they can frame and hang on the wall or where ever
Yes I'm sounding sarcastic, and that is because I'm tired from lack of sleep, trying to make this happen. And I only have a few days to complete everything. To make it worse I haven't even started on the part where they are able to print text from textboxes on a form... Oh My God. for some reason I though printing something from an application would be the easy task when it comes to programming in VB. I was obviously wrong. It happens from time to time.

I'm in the middle of making a program launcher. I've been able to make a version of it before, but now I want to add more options for viewing the shortcuts. The 2 main views I'm trying to get are: Icon only and Icon with the name.
Here is my original code for only the name:
VB.NET
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Start bottom right of screen
Dim working_area As Rectangle = _
SystemInformation.WorkingArea
[Code] .....
I have switched over to a listview because I assume that's what i will need in order to show images. So I guess my first question will be how do I get only the icon from each file and then show it in the listview.
