Win CE 5.0 Code - Display Battery Life Percent

Mar 16, 2010

Trying to find a code to display ' BatteryLifePercent' by itself on the screen of a gps unit running Windows CE Core 5.0. I have absolutely no experience in programming. Just piecing together things I find and slowly learning to make a working program. So if this is possible, could someone post a code for it? Ideally I'd want just the percentage showing on the main page with ability to size font and position somewhere on the screen. [Code]

Battery Life Time - Measurement In Seconds Or Hours

Jan 28, 2011

Searching about kernel32.dll and battery functions in it, I came across some interesting
Public BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32
The full declaration is:
Private Declare Auto Function GetSystemPowerStatus Lib "kernel32.dll" ( _
ByRef lpSystemPowerStatus As SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS) _
As Integer
Private Structure SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS
Public BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32
What I don't understand is, what measurement do the "BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32" is in? I mean, is the Battery life Time in seconds or hours.. Or something else, so how can I convert it to something I can use..

VS 2010 : Make A Little App That Displays The Battery Life Of A Notebook - Timer Not Refreshing?

Nov 19, 2011

I'm trying to make a little app that displays the battery life of a notebook, and also whether it is charging or not.I've got it displaying the battery percentage and if it is running via the cable or battery alone.My problem is that I have a timer constantly ticking to grab the latest information as to whether it is still chraging, what the battery % is like, however for some reason when it first runs it get's the info but then that's it, it won't refresh the info in real time. I'm confused because the battery can deplete but the program only displays what info it got when it was first ran but if I unplug the power cord or plug it back in it refreshes that info straight away. My code is:

Public Class Form1
Dim psBattery As PowerStatus = SystemInformation.PowerStatus
Dim perFull As Single = psBattery.BatteryLifePercent
Dim GraphicPercent As VariantType

[code]....

The bit I've highlighted in red in my code won't work either, basically I've shaped the two labels to look like a crude battery shape and label2's function is to represent the nobly bit at the top of the battery and I wan't that to change to Lime when the battery is 100%.why it won't refresh the graphical output to the screen?

Create A New Battery From Scratch While Using The Old Code As A Reference Point?

May 13, 2012

I'm currently starting a new job in which I will be working on some coding in the future and need some advice on some good places to start so I can learn this correctly. Essentially we need to bring VB4 code over to the new VB.net language and I will be tasked with this. The project consists of a large battery of tests for psychiatric patients consisting of mostly multiple choice questions presented one at a time - since VB4 isn't very compatible, I think I will create a new battery from scratch while using the old code as a reference point.

I started creating the code this weekend for fun and am really enjoying it. However, a huge problem has been the abandonment of control arrays in the new language... by the time I got to creating my first questionnaire I'm stumped and can't follow the old code. Clearly I'm not ready to tackle such a large project with no experience and need to start from scratch; who would have thought .

The reason why I'm here is not to ask you to help me with my work. What I'm wondering is if any of you have any cool advice of great places to start learning the language (books, websites, etc). The amount of literature is very overwhelming so I thought I would ask some people with experience for tips. If any of you have stumbled across learning material with emphasis on coding that would be useful in the design of questionnaires or multiple choice exams, it would be particularly useful.

So far my starting place is Visual Basic 2010 Step by Step with Michael Halvorson, it seems good at a glance in the sense that it couples theory with practice but I'm already sure I'll need a little more.

VS 2005 Way To Make The Game Of Life?

I have two "Game of Life" programs. One uses a list of points that represent the live cells, and the other uses a fixed-size grid. The one using the list of points can zoom in and out, is much more elegant in coding, and has an unlimited size grid. However, it needs to search for points in the list, and the more points in the list, the more time it takes

VS 2005 Saving Battery Level Variable To Text File?

Jul 28, 2010

Currently, I've encountered a problem where I do not how I can store the variable of my battery level in a text file. I tried .xml and .txt file and it returns me text which can't be read.The code related:

vb.net
[code]Dim psBattery As PowerStatus = SystemInformation.PowerStatus
Dim perFull As Single = psBattery.BatteryLifePercent

[code]....

The place where I do not know what to insert is the "Insert Battery Percentage Here" part so I guess that's the problem.For your info, if you were to use a MsgBox to display, the code which displays that would be <MsgBox("Total battery power remaining: " & perFull * 100 & "%")>

ADODB.Recordset Support Life Cycle?

Mar 5, 2009

I'm in the middle of porting a VB6 product to VB .NET and .NET Framework 3.5, using Visual Studio 2008. Backward compatibility with customer VB6 legacy code is a requirement.Our VB6 product uses the COM ADODB.Recordset objects extensively both internally and in our API. They port directly to VB.NET if I add an adodb interop reference to my VS 2008 project. My question is how long will Microsoft continue to support ADODB.Recordsets in their languages and operating systems? 2018?I'm trying to make a design decision. Since backward compatibility with VB6 is a requirement, I would prefer to leave them in the .NET code. However, if support will be dropped soon in the near future, then I will use ADO.NET datasets instead, and convert between ADODB.Recordsets and datasets until support is dropped.

I've googled and binged my browser to an inch of it's life, but i'm still no nearer to an answer for this, so I'd be grateful for some advice. Mainly with the syntax, but knowing me the whole concept is wrong!I have a textbox. When user enters a string and presses enter, I want the following to happen.

I'm struggling with 3 and 4 and 7

1. Check the string is not more than 13 characters, if so trim the last characters off to make 13

2. Find if the first character of the string is a digit or a letter

3. Convert the string into an array of INT

Filter Percent (%) And Apostrophes (')?

Feb 11, 2009

I am trying to filter fields in a table that contain percent (%) and apostrophe (') characters. I kow that to filter an apostrophe you need to add another apostrophe (''). However, when a text contains the percent (%) character in combination with an apostrophe (') character, an exception is thrown. Also, when using the % character in a filter string, it will be function as an "*" (fields starting or ending with). I need the % to be considered as a character whenever the % makes part of a string in the field.

Dim col As New DataColumn("Col1")
TheTable.Columns.Add(col)
