First is a windows form application:
vb
Public Class Form1
Dim ds As New DataSet
[Code]....
Now is there a way to merge this into one application? So that the second application doesnt have to have a file as the output, but that the output, (the decoded file) can be stored in local memory or something and be read by first program?
I have three dataviews (dataview1, dataview2, and dataview3). These are of type System.Data.DataView, and all three have the same columns. Is there an easy way to merge them into one, so I have one dataview with rows from dataview1, followed by dataview2, and then dataview3?

I have an sql database with client email addresses.I need to send out reminders at certain dates that vary per client. Is there a way for me to draw only the clients that need to receive the reminders out of the database and then send an email to each one of them?From what I have found so far, it looks like I can set up the smtp fairly easily.I just don't know how to get the client's that I need and then cycle through each one.

I am trying to essentially allow the user to merge data from a database onto a document and print it. I am new to working with the PrintDocument, but I believe this would be the way to accomplish this. I know how to print the text onto the PrintDocument at a certain position, but what I am trying to figure out is how to deal with the coordinates of the text I am drawing on the PrintDocument. Ideally, I would love to click on the PrintDocument in a PrintPreviewControl and capture the coordinates of the PrintDocument.

View 6 RepliesI wrote this VB program to be able to throw a device we developed into programming mode where we use an ATMEL Flip installer to upload new firmware. I can program one device after another running the application off of Visual Studio Express 2010 or Visual Studio 2010, but when I go to publish this file and run it on another machine, it becomes unstable and crashes after each upload. On those same computers if I run the raw unpackaged program under Visual Studio Express, the system does not crash, and I can program devices repeatedly.
View 5 RepliesI've been working on a program that generates a batch file, then when you press a button, it executes that batch file. There are multiple batch files attached to each item in the list box.
[code]...
The only thing that it does when I press the button, is starts the batch file, then goes to function searchtitle, which executes the batch file again when it finds out it didn't work properly.The button text doesn't change, none of the items are being added to my first list box, and I can't do anything to the window after pressing the button. It constantly opens the batch file every 5 seconds or so.
The program allows users to insert Documents along with a bunch of their attributes into the program. The documents are stored in a relational database. One of the required functionalities is allowing the user to look for such documents. The User normally search directly for the obvious attributes of the document, like a unique ID, or it's Title. The problem is that from the search parameters is not allways known which ones will the user fill. For example the user inserts the name and version of the deocument, another time the user enters part of the Title and the person that delivered the document, or might just enter the document number and nothing else. Some of the data might even be incomplete, like title, name of the person who created the document and so on. The idea from the person who designed the system (I'm only reimplementing it) was to allow easier searches for the user, and allowing the user to search for more parameters tod with the idea that "the more parameters, the more specific results", since the results are always group of documents instead of single documents.

View 8 RepliesI'm really new at programming and was looking for guidance about a project I have.I have to design a program that administers a multiple choice test to users. It delivers questions one at a time, from a predefined test file for the user to answer. It also marks and displays a score at the end of the test.
First, a QUESTION form verify's the user's registration status and access. The user provides a registration number and password and the program reads it from a "registration.txt" file to determine if the user is eligible to take the test (i.e., they are registered to take it). If it is correct, then the user presses the "Begin" button. If not, then a message appears and the student tries again to enter the information.
A read only text box will display the score at the end of the test (String with format correct/total) and the user can't retake the test.Second, a QUESTION form opens after clicking "Begin" on the entry form. The questions are going to be from a "testfile.txt" file.Each question is on multiple lines in the file. The first line consists of the question followed by possible answers followed by the correct answer ( 3 items are separated by "#"). The current question number and the question will be displayed in textboxes.'n'= possible answers; so each of the next 'n' lines provides a possible answer. All possible answers will be displayed in a Listbox.After the user selects an answer, an ''Enter'' button is pressed. This will submit and evaluate the answer. If nothing is selected a textbox should appear and display the error message (APPEARS ONLY IF THERE IS AN ERROR). After pressing ''Enter'', the next question is displayed.When all questions answered, the entry form is displayed again and displays the score.
I know that's a lot of information, but I wanted it to be really clear. Would it be best to cycle/loop the questions with a DoWhile loop? And how would I store the answers while the user goes through the test?
I have an application, written in C#, which needs some functionality from VB.NET (better said, something valid in CIL but not provided in C#).
So I have an executable and a library file.
Problem:
It has to be published in one file and may not be split to different assemblies!
But:
It's a WPF application, ILMerge will not work.
What could I do?Is it possible to generate (performant) IL on the fly?
I'm trying to create a program that will merge two data tables (one from a database on a network drive, the other is found in a database on the local machine). Each datatable is identical in structure, only (maybe) differs in content. The structure has a primary key, dateCreated, and dateLastEdited fields (plus other fields). I would like to merge down from the network to the local database. If the primary key does not exist on the local db but does on the network, copy from the network db to the local table. If it does exist, check the dateLastEdited column and copy the latest row to the local table.
How would i set up the code to do this? Any assistance would be great.
I'm trying to merge 2 files - a 'simple' string replace. 2 files - an ini-style data file that has <descriptor>=<value> with about 70 rows created by web-form and database, and a csv template file with 2500 rows that has 12 fields, but the values will either be in fields (4) and (5) OR (6) and (7). The data fields won't always be in the same order. I'm reading a line from the Template file, then looping through the data file looking for a descriptor match then replacing it with the value, but because they are in pairs per line, I have to loop twice; then loop to the next template file and so on. Then cleanup to remove the unused descriptors.
I have been unable to crack this for about a week. I wrote a VBScript version yesterday in about an hour and it worked flawlessly first time taking 2 seconds to produce the csv output file exactly as required.
Tried reading the data file and looping through the template, tried almost every combination of Using/End using; For/next, Do Until, Do while, etc. Used Streamreader, File.ReadAllLines, I've read msdn till I know it by heart, but no use. You name it, I've tried it. Must have missed something or it would work though.
You are my final hope. The problem part of the code is below...

View 1 RepliesI have a GUI that is running for a form, let's call it Class xWindow. It has finished processing data and is simply waiting for the user to press a button, i.e. the main thread has nothing to do. Just before it finished processing, it kicked started something that has a callback function which occurs in a new thread (e.g. a system timer or a Bonjour callback to say that a service has been found on a port). This callback occurs within the xWindow class.

I need to marge two datatable with condition. i table data come from local XML Database and another data come from remote sql data if any update made at remote datatable and then marge with local datatable. i wrote a code below :
Public Sub MargeTwoTable()
Dim SQL As String = ""
Dim RemoteTable As New DataTable
Dim LocalTable As DataTable
[code]....
as you see in my code data come from remote database which update date getter then local database . Both table are same and "ID" is primary key. I code is working well. But problem is that when data more then 1000 updated record so this function take too long in loops.
i write a code like : Dim mm() As DataRow = LocalTable.Select("ID = '" & RemoteTable.Rows(i).Item("ID") & "'"). for finding local datatable id row so when data is more then 1000 it take too long because localtable record more than 100000 records. So I need someone help to modify my code what the best way to write the code.
I need to marge two datatables with condition. I have a datatable where the data comes from a local XML Database and another datatable where the data comes from a remote SQL Server. If any update made in the remote datatable I need to update/merge with the local datatable. Here is what I have so far:
Public Sub MargeTwoTable()
Dim SQL As String = ""
Dim RemoteTable As New DataTable
Dim LocalTable As DataTable

In this code data comes from the remote database which updates a date getter then the local database . Both tables have "ID" as the primary key. The code is working well, but the problem is that when more than 1000 records are updated this function takes too long using loops.
