View 7 Repliesplaying an audio file that has been selected by the user.
The program I'm working on is an alarm clock, so that may give you an idea of the problem. Basically, I just want the user to be able to select his/her own song to play when the time comes. So, the user clicks on a button, and an OpenFileDialog pops up. The user selects an audio file, and then that file is going to be the file that is played when the alarm goes off.
I'm not near my Microsoft Visual Studio at the moment, so I didn't have time to test it, but here is a code that I think may work:

I decided to try the Code Analysis tool that came with VB2010 (at some levels). It produced LOTS of fascinating comments. Many of the comments make no sense, such as one about not disposing of a type on all paths when there is only one path that ends with an explicit call to object.Dispose. I think the analysis engine is looking at some of the calls, but they all return to the caller properly.

I'm trying to make a "Simon" game with four buttons labeled 1-4. The game is supposed to read the numbers out loud, but i have a problem with that. I have 4 wav files from google text-to-speech, each named 1-4. I made an number generator that can return like this "42331", and the game is supposed to play 4.wav, 2.wav, 3.wav, 3.wav and 1.wav.
Here's what I got so far.
Public Class Form1
Dim rnd As New Random
Dim i = 0
Dim level As Integer = 5
Dim nums As String
[code] .....
It only plays 1.wav (the last in the sequence).
How can I display text while a sound is playing? It keep pausing until the sound has completed.

View 5 RepliesI'm playing an audio file like so:
VB.NET Dim audio As New Audio(Application.StartupPath & "est.wav", True) audio.Balance = 10000 audio.Play()
Which works great. But if I need to change that file, I get an UnauthorizedException because the I haven't disposed of it. But, if I add a dispose after .Play, it won't play.

I was wondering if it is possible to use the WPF Ribbon in windows forms(they added it in .net 4). I know about the ElementHost Control which works fine for created controls, but it doesn't seem to be able to host default controls, I could create a wpf control and put the ribbon in, but that seems like a terrible hack.(And lots of work since there are lots of controls related to the ribbon)

View 7 Repliesthis is my absolute first attempt at the mschart control in a winform, so any help would be appreciated - i have sales reps that issue quotes to customers and would like to plot number of quotes by month using the mschart control.I have a dataset populated with a single table with 2 columns in it - sales_rep and quote_issued_date (there's more, but i'd like to only focus on those two because they contain all the info i need)i have a windows form with an MSChart control dropped on to it. I'm trying to get this to work on a 'column' chart type.i'd like to count the number of records in the dataset per sales rep per monthi'd like to get the x axis to be months in the year (fixed, not drawn from the data) - jan thru dec.
i'd like to get the Y axis to reflect the highest count of rows per rep per month + say....10% (so the graph doesn't peak out at the top every time, it would be more for aethestics)i'd like to get the columns displayed in the graph to be each rep, each month (ie for january john has 10 quotes issued, bill has 5, tom has 31 - for feb john has 3, bill has 10, tom has 19 - etc etc etc) - because the form is just a quick visual, i'm dumping any code in the form load event and calling it good.
I have a desktop WinForms app that I would like to be able to connect to my Sql Server database that I have through my GoDaddy webhost. Problem is not all ISP's forward the 1433 port (like mine) so I can't connect directly to the DB from any of my home computers without buying the expensive dedicated IP address package, which has me thinking since my website can connect directly to the DB I was wondering if it might be possible for me to make a dll that would have all of the database interaction through subs and functions and all my WinForms app would have to do is connect to that dll through http or something, anyone know if I could do something along those lines?

I'm writing a desktop application that uses the main access database that will be hosted on a central server, but there will be a laptop with the app on that has an offline mode so records can be created offsite. When the laptop returns I want it needs to be synced back to the main database.
Has anybody got any pointers on a way to do this, I've briefly read about JRO but is there an alternative / better method?
Originally, I was just going to write some custom code to do this, but thought I'd check to make sure there wasn't something already out there.
I am deploying a VB.net 2010 winforms application, and when I install it on the client's machine, the install process also installs an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. The application connects to a central SQL database on the server. To install, I am using the "Publish" option in VS 2010. Why does it do that? There should be no need for a local instance of SQL Express. Is there a way to avoid installing SQL 2005 Express (I know it is free, but I would rather not have it installed if possible).

I've decided to learn Visual Basic .Net as this is what some of my colleagues work with, and this will allow me to work with them on projects.I have purchased Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Step by Step and downloaded the sample files. When I am trying to debug the first sample application (a Windows form), it is telling me that it can't load System.Drawing V4.0.0.0. However, if I create a new Windows Form application (C# or VB.Net) this works fine.
I had a look at the References tab in the project settings and System.Windows.Forms is referenced, but the version referenced is 2.0.0.0. I have removed and re-added this reference and it stays at 2.0.0.0 and I still get the error.Does anybody have any ideas as to what may be going on?
Is it possible to set a project default for VB.NET winforms projects so that the default Modifier for controls added to winforms is Private (not Friend)?I know there's a "modifiers" property in the properties window so I can set it for each individual control however I would like to change the project so from now on myself and other developers have to specifically decide to change from friend to private. (Which I would strongly discourage them from doing).I believe there is no way of doing this, but on another forum a while ago someone mentioned it would be possible with an add-in (but didn't name the add-in or where to get it).
View 1 RepliesI hope I got all that in this question title. Let me explain. We are starting on small desktop app that will snowball into a big app with many forms. The database is SQL Server. It will have classic stored procs/functions performing classic CRUD functions. Given a table or stored proc in SQL Server what is the quickest way to create a form with all the hooks to maintain a table.
For e.g. lets assume I have table like this (most code below is pseudo code)
Table Employee
{
Name varchar(30)
DOB Datetime
Address varchar(100)
}
From this as source I want to create my Target which is form with 3 labels and 3 textboxes with add delete modify buttons (or OK button to add if not exists or modify if exists)

I have been trying now for about 4 hours to get my vb.NET MD5 function to generate the same hash as PHP's This is my vb.net function:
Public Function MD5(ByVal input As String) As String

Dim bs As Byte() = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(input)
bs = x.ComputeHash(bs)

However, the hashing of some wtrings ("paSsword1" for example) work perfectly fine.Any ideas why? I have tried multiple methods of MD5 in vb.net. I can;t change the way it works in PHP because I'm writing a library to interface with a commercial application - I just need the hashes to be generated the same!
