View 7 RepliesI'm actually a beginner in VB express. i made about 10 easy programs, now i decided to make one a bit difficult. I'm stuck at the beginning.In first form i have 2 Textboxes and 1 Button (1username, 1password, button - sign in) and then another 2 Textboxes and 1Button (1username, 1password, button - register) I want to make something like this for beginning: When you register the infos from textboxes (username & password) are saved in some file (let's say in info.txt or info.ini). I actually want to know how to automatically save these usernames and passwords in text file when you click register button, so when you want to login, you have to use registered username&password. So if there in text file is not the username you registered or typed in textbox you can't login.
View 2 RepliesI have been working on a project in which I need to get all usernames.
Add to form
Public Function GetUserId() As String
Dim lUserName As String
Dim lSuccess As Boolean
[Code].....
Unfortunately, this only gets the username of the user logged on. I was wondering if there is a way to modify this to get all user names.
Is it possible to get a list of usernames (as shown in Control Panel->Users) on the PC that my app is running on? If so, is it then possible to determine the type of account (i.e. Admin, Standard AND if the account is the Built-in Guest or Built-in Administrator account)?
View 1 RepliesHere is my code that I wrote its very simple.
Normal Code
If TextBox1.Text = "PleaseHelp" Then
Button1.Enabled = Enabled
End If
BUT I need like multiple correct logins I don't know how I forgot! EXAMPLE: If TextBox1.text = "PleaseHelp, HELP, Thanks" <--- gives me a error I know it isnt the correct way! I just cant figure it out and its basic code....
I am trying to get use to this....I need to know how to type in a database for my usernames and passwords??? I am using visual basic 2008, which I think is visual.net? anyway...heres my code:
Code:
Public Class login
Private Sub login_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Hello.Hide()
[code]....
First off, I am a total VB noob. I want to create a program so that I can store usernames and passwords. I want to be able to search by username and pull up their password. What VB program do I need to write this? Can I just use the VB in excel?
View 9 RepliesBasically i am trying to create a programme, which needs to have some authorisation.
When the application starts up, it starts straight into the login screen.
I want the Username and Password textboxes to read the database and if they match then progress to the next form but if they dont match then a message box will appear.
I also want to create groups of people so if a certain group of people log in they go to a certain form and if the another group of people log in i want them to go to a different form.
Also i want the password box to be * instead of visable text.
dbProvider = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;"
dbSource = "Data Source = D:/Users.mdb"
con.ConnectionString = dbProvider & dbSource
[Code]....
storing usernames and password after the program closes. I do not want them to be stored in a .txt file, as this is insecure. How do I store it?
View 2 RepliesI'm having a problem with the error in verifying the usernames that are already existing in the record/database.
When you inputted a username that already existing it will throw an exception, and when you change the username, it still throws the exception.
I have the following text that I am trying to parse:
"user1@emailaddy1.com" <user1@emailaddy1.com>, "Jane Doe" <jane.doe@ addyB.org>,
"joe@company.net" <joe@company.net>
I am using the following code to try and split up the string:
Dim groups As GroupCollection
Dim matches As MatchCollection
Dim regexp1 As New Regex("""(.*)"" <(.*)>")
matches = regexp1 .Matches(toNode.InnerText)
For Each match As Match In matches
groups = match.Groups
message.CompanyName = groups(1).Value
message.CompanyEmail = groups(2).Value
Next
But this regular expression is greedy and is grabbing the entire string up to the last quote after "joe@company.net". I'm having a hard time putting together an expression that will group this string into the two groups I'm looking for: Name (in the quotes) and E-Mail (in the angle brackets).
I want to make different levels of access for a vb.net program i'm writing.I have a database called "stratocast". I want to show a specific form for entries in this table with "IsManager" checked and another specific form for those with "IsAdmin" checked.Im using MySql server and visual basic 2010 express
EDIT:To clear up any misconceptions about my post, ill explain further: In my vb.net application i have a login form with two textboxes; One for the username and one for password. I also have three other forms, one is called "frmAdmin", another called "frmManager" and another one called "frmEmployee".
On my database i have a table called "employee" with columns called "name", "title", "IsManager", "IsAdmin", "Username" and "Password".
IsManager and IsAdmin are both Boolean columns
This means that their values can only be 0 or 1 and the result is displayed as a checkbox.When the employee logs into this applcation i want it to check whether or not the employee is a manager, an administrator, or just a regular employee with no additional rights. If the employee is a manager, i want to show "frmManager". If the employee is an Administrator i want to show "frmAdmin". And if the employee has no additional rights then i want to show "frmEmployee".
I'd like to keep the configuration for access level checking confined to the one table but if it's better to have separate tables for each level of access (ie: tables called Admin,Manager, and Employee) then ill consider that too.
I want to create a login system that reads the usernames and passwords for a list of arrays:[code]I have managed to code the program so it accepts the correct username and password and sends a error message when they don't match. The problem I'm having is when the user enters a username that isn't on my Username list. The program always crashes when I enter say "admin1000".[code]

I have a program where I need to be able to access files from an administrative share on a remote machine where the username is administrator and there is no password. I want to be able to access these files without the user getting prompted to input the username and password.
I have searched around and found some references to WMI - but as far as I can tell, WMI is mainly for managing the remote machine and not necessarily for file access (?). Also, some information gathered about WMI leads me to believe that it may be disabled on some machines or not installed on others (?). Since this program is meant to go out to a diverse customer base, I need to make sure that I cover as many angles as possible to ensure this program will run on as many machines as possible.

Hey Overflow, I have an application which serves as a user interface for a spartan/command line program.
I have the program running on a separate process, and my application monitors it to see if it is responding and how mush CPU it is utilising.
Now I have a list of files in my program (listbox) which are to be sent to the application, which happens fine. But I want to be able to read text from the com-line so as to determine when the first file has been processed.
Com-line says one of "selecting settings", "unsupported format" and "cannot be fixed". What I want to be able to do is when it says one of these three things, remove item(0) in listbox1.
I thought of programming an event which handles com_exe.print or something or other, if possible.

View 3 RepliesI developed a windows service project using vb.net and windows service is installed with logon account as admin's user name and password. Target of windows service is to read the pst file path location from windows registry for currently logged user by accessing the following registry key
"HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWindows Messaging SubsystemProfilesOutlook52a407cf2e436a4d8fe252d1d257465501f6700".
The problem is , windows service can able to read the admin pst file path location if admin is logged in windows. When other user logged in windows, service is not able to read currently logged user's pst file path location from registry because of windows service is configured with admin user name and password. so it always reads admin's pst file location.
