It was working fine until I changed it to connect to an ftp sever, added NetworkCredentials and said connect, downloads fine but does not trigger the events like its supposed to. What do I do to fix this?I'm sorry if I misspelled something or my grammar is wrong, I've never done well in those subjects.
View 4 RepliesI use webclient to download a file Async. Defined in the Globals.
Public WithEvents wbclient As New WebClient
I'm trying to download multiple files based on what a user has selected on a formI have multiple checkboxes in place, so If a user would select Checkboxes 1,3,4 I would want the webclient to download files 1.txt, 3.txt, 4.txt.The WebClient method is causing a "WebClient does not support concurrent I/O operations." error.
If chk1.Checked Then
WC.DownloadFileAsync(New Uri("http://www.google.com/1.txt), Path.Combine(DataSource & strDirectory, "1.txt"))

[code]It gives me problems right there because it downloads the file but not the data in it,url... is 1 kb and has one character in it - 1, when it downloads it has the right name and extention but the contents and size is gone size is 0 bytes and contents are empty.
View 2 RepliesI've just switched my code over that downloads data as bytes to use a WebClient. I add a header saying I will accept GZip and the site I'm downloading from sends me the data compressed. The problem is, how can I check to make sure it is compressed data before attempting to decompress it? It was much simpler when I was using a Web Request to check the response headers, but I'm having a little trouble checking the reponse headers with a WebClient. Does anybody out there accept compression with a WebClient?
View 1 Repliestrying to get my app to trigger som events on a keypress (lets say left arrow) when my form is not in focus.I've google it bu all i can find looks very complicated, is there an easer way of doing this?Or is it a very complicated thing to do?
View 3 RepliesI developed app which accepts user responses. I created secondary labels which I envisioned as larger "tool tips" which prompt the user. ("prompts")As the user inputs to either combo box or text box, the label should go invisible and a "prompt" for the next input should go visible.I am trying to use Selected Index Changed,Leave, or LostFocus events to accomplish the visible invisible change.Is that the most effficient way to accomplish my functionality? A twist I would like to incorporate: the purpose of the "prompts" is to guide an unsophisticated user through the app the first couple times.After familiarity is acheived the "prompts" can be annoying.My strategy is to allow user to turn off the "prompts" by a check box.Then my conditionals will test the checkbox. checked property and either show the "prompts" or not based on the test.

View 7 RepliesI've been playing with VB.NET for a couple days now, and I was looking into key input controls, now I've managed to have it react to keyboard buttons being pushed inside the main form (wasn't hard), where it counts total amount of keys pushed, not what keys are pushed etc.
What I'm having a harder time is finding a way to have this same functionality even if the form isn't active (for example when minimized to the system tray). I did find a similar question on these boards, but it was regarding hotkeys and that user was just referenced to the hotkey API, which is not what I am aiming for.
Public Class aaMyForm
Inherits Windows.Forms.Form
Added some controls. Build it, add the .DLL as reference to my other project.
In my other project:
Imports MyLib
Public Class XForm
Inherits aaMyForm
The events from aaMyForm execute correctly but the controls added to it are not shown on XForm. I have found some info about set Modifiers Protected in order to be able to change the functionality of the controls but havent found anything about why the controls aren display on the XForm.
If I want to trigger an event every hour, I would have to set the timer interval to 3600000. That seems a bit crazy. Is there a better way to trigger events in these "longer than X second" type intervals?
View 11 RepliesI have a main form that has a dynamically generated treeview and also a panel control. Depending on the selection made within the treeview the panel docks 1 of three diffrent usercontrols which are full sub forms(done for ease of modifing design of sub form rather than layering panels on top of panels).Upon button click withing usercontrol i wish to trigger event within main form.For example delete button wich then triggers to remove current selected node from treeview. code for 1 of three diffrent user controls
Dim ctrlQ As New QuoteUC(TrViewQuotation.SelectedNode)
PnlSubFormDock1.Controls.Add(ctrlQ)
Code for delete button for which i need to raise event.
If MsgBox("Are you sure you wish to delete this customer ?", vbYesNo, "Delete Record") = vbYes Then
Deletecustomer(n)
End If
i have to develop a software for motorola mc9090 that reads barcodes and rfids simultaneously, so i need to catch two different triggers: the one on the keyboard for barcodes and the other in the backside for rfids.the problem is that i didn't find any sample that illustrates how to set the trigger to read only barcodes, i found something on emdk 2.5 samples that shows how to set the trigger to read rfids but nothing for barcodes. So when i press any trigger the barcode reader is always enabled with rfids reader.Does exist a way to manage them with separated triggers?

View 5 RepliesI have an application where the admin user can create users and upload documents to the server for the created user to download.
When uploading a file it creates a folder using the userid as the folder name and saves in that folder within a folder called documents e.g. ~documents/77b29079-43d6-4520-bc34-77ae2af1b131/documentname.xls
The client then has to login and will see a list of available documents for that user only. The only problem is that if someone was to get hold of one of the urls to a document is can be downloaded without having to login.
Is there something I can do to stop access to these files?? I have tried editing the web.config file to only allow access to certain roles but i could still download a document without logging in.
<location path="documents">
<system.web>

I eyed VB.NET 2010 Express and created the damn app. It's up and running and it does what it's supposed to do (in v1). Now I'd like to distribute it for free while:
(1). Have a reliable way of knowing (and everybody can check this out) the number of downloads.
(2). The app cannot be passed from one user to another, but has to be downloaded from the reputable biz (there can be more than one biz) that accurately provides the number of downloads.
(3). I can have total control over the app (once it's downloaded by the users), that is if I want to inform the users of updates or whatever, or if I want to add some ad windows to the form I can do it whenever I want and how I please.
How do I do (1) to (3)? What am I supposed to read to do (3)? ADO.NET and ASP.NET? Any shortcut? What's the easiest way of doing it? I'm not sure I'm looking for a career in programming, for now I just want to take this app off my shoulders and go back to daydreaming.
MVC3 VB.NET Razor view Application... I have a view that uses a for each loop to display all the available courses. Next to each of these I would like to place a Html link to download that courses class handout file. Problem is I have not found anything on any forums about assigning the value to the hyperlink dynamically since it will vary with every iteration of the for each loop. I have coded the model to hold the file name associated with each class. Below is a snippet from the view..
