VS 2010 Checking Url To See If There Is Data
Jan 11, 2011
I�ve written an app that downloads from the internet with my.computer.network.downloadfile mehtod. The problem is it�s supposed to try a numder of urls and if there�s data, it downloads, otherwize the url is wrong. The utl adress is a combination of date and a letter, which the program gets from a database. So for every date, it checks all the letters as suffixes until it finds the right one. However the wrong ones tend to time out or something, which takes forever and also causes some errors. Is there a way to check if a url is valid at all, instead of actually trying a download?

I have this line of codes here to check if the records exist.
Try
If StudentInfoBindingSource.Find("StudentNumber", StudentNumberTextBox.Text) = -1 Then
ToolStripLabel4.Visible = True
[Code].....
This codes works perfectly but there is a problem, if I close that certain form and reopen it and try to input the same student number, the ex.Message for the Try appears and still the progressbar() command executes although the data will not be saved. I want to ged rid of the execution of progressbar() how can I make it work? And as much as possible I want the message box in Else to be executed and not the msgbox in try catch.

I'm working on an automated program, and it needs to check the latest email on a certain account (which will be passed to it) every 15 seconds or so. Setting up the timer and the passing to the timer the username and password is easy, but it's the reading the email that I'm having trouble with. How exactly can I read the first few emails from my inbox and put them in an array? And after that, how can I access the body and subject, for example email.body and email.subject?

I sware I am loosing the will to live, I have tried to accomplish this by my-self for about 2 weeks now and I am still at square one.
I am writing an application for booking conference rooms and I need a login form.
I have created my database called Users in sql and inserted 2 default login accounts, admin and default.
I dont know how to compare the data in my database to the data typed into the username and password text boxes on the login form.
see what I have so far
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Public Class LoginForm1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I'm doing drag and drop from a list view. In my starting list view's ItemDrag event handler, I say (amomgst other things):
data.SetFileDropList(coll)
data.SetText(CurrentFolder, TextDataFormat.Text)
sender.DoDragDrop(data, DragDropEffects.Copy Or DragDropEffects.Move)
CurrentFolder being a string that holds the name of the folder represented by the list view. In the target control's DragDrop event handler, CType(e.Data, DataObject).GetText evaluates to what CurrentFolder was when ItemDrag was executed.But: e.Data.GetDataPresent(TextDataFormat.Text) always evaluates to FALSE.If I replace "TextDataFormat.Text" by "DataFormats.Text" (in both places) the result is the same. I am asking this although my code does what I want, because I feel that I should not call CType(e.Data, DataObject).GetText before I have established that TextData is actually present. So how do I properly check for the presence of the text data.

I seem to occasionally find myself trying to compare two List(of T) to see whether or not they contain the same elements. A quick check of the documentation shows the SequenceEquals method, but that appears to check whether the two lists have the same length, and have the same elements in the same order. I don't care about the order. I want to know whether two collections have the same elements. Doing this is not terribly difficult, and seems common enough, so I was expecting that there would be some function that handles it.

Basically, in my Tcp Library I'm working on, whenever the system is told to "Stop", the OnClientConnected() Routine fires off, which is only raised under two circumstances: When a Client connects (obviously) When the server is told to shutdown
Now, the first one is handled just fine. But the second one is not. In fact, it has caused me a great deal of headache because it keeps throwing exceptions on this line in particular:
Dim _tcpClient As System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient = _tcpListener.EndAcceptTcpClient(IR)
When I hover over while debugging, I can see a few members that reveal exception data I could utilize; but unfortunately those members are private and I don't want to utilize reflection unless I have to since it could slow down performance where there may not be a real reason to.
I have thought of writing in a Boolean check to see if the server received a shutdown signal and that would indicate that it's time to not accept anything, but I want to avoid that if possible.
Is there any way to see if the TcpListener is no longer accepting connections and has had .Stop() called without reverting to catching the ObjectDisposedException that is raised? (because the Socket that is "accepted" is actually a disposed one)

I have a checkedlistbox with numbers in it and I'm trying to load a list of numbers from a database and check all of them (they should all be in the checkedlistbox).
I was trying to do this by loading all the values into a separate listbox using my own subroutine (I know that part works) and then finding the corresponding item on the checkedlistbox, like this:
Dim ItemName As String
For Each item In ListBox1.Items
ItemName = ListBox1.GetItemText(item)
If CheckedListBox1.Items.Contains(ItemName) = true Then
CheckedListBox1.SetItemChecked(CheckedListBox1.Items.IndexOf(ItemName), True)
End If
Next
End If
But this doesn't work: It never returns a match, even when the item is definitely on the list. How do I make this work?

I am working on a program that gathers test scores from the user in the form of a list box (array preferably). I need to be able to check the user's entries to validate they are between 0-100. I have tried using If statements with a messagebox.show() error message.When the user enters an invalid entry the error messagebox pops up but after selecting ok the program moves on to the next test score.
The GetTestScores procedure gathers the students test scores from the user
Sub GetTestScores(ByRef intTestScores() As Integer)
Dim intCounter As Integer = 0

I'd like to make a small app that checks every few minutes to see if a website has been updated. There is a catch to this, too. At the bottom of the page there is a 'server time' that changes automatically. That server time is located in <pre> tags. Everything else can be checked. How can I do this?

I have been on MSDN about this and searched but it's not quite telling me what I'm after. I've extracted a list of file names from an Excel spreadsheet and want to check whether they all exist in a directory which a user can select in a text box. It feels like I'm nearly there with it but currently my listbox is displaying everything, I want it to just show the files that are missing. I'm a beginner so I'm not exactly sure if I'm even telling it to compare the two things properly, I've tried a couple of ways of checking if a file exists but neither seem to work.[code]

I have a IF statement which is checking each row in the data table (for a match) and ELSE statement with commands which are executed if the If statement is not satisfied. Now I would like to write like so that it goes to the Else part BUT ONLY for values which are not satisfied in the IF statement. If I am more specific; I would like to calculate values if a match is found and just print them if it is not fond (usually there are both cases). Now the problem is the bold text; if there is a match found I don't want it processed BUT if the match is found I do. How can I write that?

I have a program which have to play a sound at a specific time in each day.Currently I made a timer with 450 interval and I put a code in it which check if datetime.now = mytime then it will play the sound.(the program runs in background)
It is working but the problem is that sometimes it doesn't play the sound. I think I didn't used a proper way to this.I have even tried checking datetime.now.hour & .minute & .second with mytime to make sure it does play it at the right time But I don't know why the timer sometimes miss it and the play sound won't be run.

So I'm using the following code to add items into my list box, and I'm trying to get it to check the contents of the list box as well.
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
If ListBox2.Items.Contains(TextBox3.Text) Then
MsgBox("Character already exists!")
Else
ListBox2.Items.Add(New LBnfo With {.v4 = RadioButton6.Checked,
[Code] .....
But when I try to compare the two:
If ListBox2.Items.Contains(TextBox3.Text) Then
MsgBox("Character already exists!")
Else
It doesn't show the message box even when the character actually does exist. I believe the problem is that I never do add the item really. I just use, "Return Me.character," which is assigned the value of Textbox3. So I just need to figure out how to check Me.character before returning it.

I'm writing a program for my class, which pretty much is an energy cost calculator. It takes 4 inputs from 4 text boxes and multiplies them, and the result is the cost. Well, now I have to come up with a way to check for empty text boxes and display a prompt to enter a number. I've tried inserting multiple codes to display a prompt and to no avail nothing has worked, I also receive the error "when casting from a number, the value must be a number less than infinity" error.

I wanted to make a collection of definitions public, for which the Enum class was a perfect candidate, but I also had the need to check variables against all the possibile enum members to see which one they were.
In this scenario my solution was to write a public enum class in which all the members were made available, and replicate the same listing in an array in order to iterate through.
In fact the only way I know to iterate through all memebers is a cycle (either "for each" or "while somecondition" and a moving index). But I guess there must be a simpler way to make use of an enum class.

I have a textbox which has a numeric value that changes - would it be possible to check if that value matches two numeric values in a text file? and if the value matches then to display some text in a label? The textfile only has fields displayed like so
Horizontal 55
Vertical 16
So I would only need to check if the numeric field in textbox matches the two numbers in the second column. In the past I have use System.IO.File to create/delete/append to files but I havent come across anything like contains.

How would one go about checking a listbox's items for duplicates? Basically I need to write a program that displays the teams from a text file provided by my instructor, in alphabetical order. I can do that, but what I can't figure out is how to prevent the For loop from adding a duplicate team. What I'm envisioning is:
If teams(i).name is not in lstTeams.Items Then
lstTeams.Items.Add(teams(i).name)
End If
I have a program that compiles and works so far, except for the above problem and my alphabetical order (which I can probably figure out on my own:
Public Class danbrockteams
Structure team
Dim name As String
[Code]....
This works except that my listbox is filled with the team every player is in rather than just listing all possible teams. Not exactly looking for someone to just give me the answer, as I understand things best when figuring them out on my own, so I suppose a hint is what I'm really after.

Basically what I want to do is create a program that every now and then (maybe 10 minutes) switches between either, all the windows currently open, or a selection of all the windows currently open, then checks the colour of a location on the screen. At the moment I have the program checking the colour at a specific coordinate, so that's all good. The problem I have now is how to switch between windows.
I've thought up a few ways to do this. The windows that I care about checking all have the same name, the same process class, but different process IDs. I already managed to stick all the process IDs into an array of integers hoping that I could use them but I don't have a clue how to bring a window to front using just the process ID. So the first method would work if I could figure out a way to do that.
My second idea, which is a pretty rubbish way of doing it, would be to simply simulate pressing Alt+Tab however many times to change between windows.
