I need to write an application for receiving data (ascii characters) from microcontroller through the serial port in three separate parts. I've created three RichTextBoxes, but I do not know which commands I need to type. In first textbox I need to receive one byte... next six bytes need to be placed in second text box, and finally last seven bytes need to be placed in third textbox.

I've already wrote a simple program for connecting to a serial port that can send data to the microcontroller, do some basic arithmatic and transmit it back to my Form. This was just to see if I could set up the conection.I have a PIC Microcontroller giving an 8-bit number thats is taken from an external sensor device.What I want to do now is to present this data from the microcontroller in a textbox as a number either in real time (as the sensor output changes) or if not possible, on request (using a button).

I have written a program in vb to serial in data from my microcontroller and it is working good except for one thing. When I try to send the number 26 to vb it just reads a blank I dont know what is going on? The data that I am reading is being converted to int16, and I am using Encoding 28591 and have also tried Encoding 1252. I have also tried a new microcontroller with no success. I dont know if this is a VB problem or a microcontroller program problem.
Dim ReceiveBuffer As String
Dim portname1 As String = "Com5" ' Serial in through this port
Dim portspeed1 As Integer = 19200
Dim WithEvents COMPort As New System.IO.Ports.SerialPort

Like the title says, i have a code written in vb.net that receives data from a PIC microcontroller via rs232, but i need a way to know when te trasmission ends. I have put the word "END" in the microcontroller code so that after he sends all the data , will send the word "END" ..so i need to implement this in my vb.net code and when "END" is received to display "finish" popup message.
Imports System
Imports System.ComponentModel

Im working on a HSD 32 bit data bus to serial converter via a microcontroller. Now first I want to make a sort of data sniffer to read the data bus (32Bit) .All on the controller side is working and the stream of bytes are coming in via RS232 as 4 bytes in HEX like FD,A5,45,8B . I already converted the bytes in Dec and ASCII to determine what is passed true the bus and how fast and stuff.. Now that is all correct and working very well if the LSB (least significant bit) of the 32 data bus is Data line 0 and the MSB (most significant bit) is Data line 31 but if that is not the case I need to invert the 32Bits (like as I would invert the connector on the bus) . How do I best do this using the 4 bytes I send from the micro controller.
Example:
(MSB) 01001000 01100101 01101100 01110000 (LSB)
HEX= 48 65 6C 70
DEC= 72,101,108,112
ASCII= H E L P
I need to invert it with a button to:
(MSB) 00001110 00110110 10100110 00010010 (LSB)
HEX= 0E 36 A6 12
DEC= 14,54,166,18
ASCII= (SO) 6 : (DC2)

I am creating a web browser in VB 2010. I have a search box, and I want to make it so that when I press enter in the text box, it searches. [code] The problem with this is that when I press enter, there is this annoying "beep". I don't know where this comes from. The only thing I can think of doing is making the event activate the search button, but I don't know how to do that either. How can I fix this?

I'm now working on a domainchecking application for about 2 weeks and it is in the final developement phase.There is a my.settings that is, by default 1 to indicate that it is the first time starting the application. If it is the first time, the settingsform will show up to activate the application with a serialcode. This works fine. If I start up the app again, it doesn't show the settingsform again because my.settings.firsttime was set to 0.
After 1 cycle of the timer, which checks all the domains,the line: application.restart is being executed. Then **** happens...It shows up the welcome-message again and asks for activation.By check,I put a button on the settingsform which shows you the value of my.settings. firsttime. and ***... It is 1, like magic, it changed itself from 0 to 1. The same problem is with the indicator of the activation.Is the problem caused by application.restart? Is there alternative code for restarting an application?

had a quick question that I dont think is too difficult, the solution just isn't too apparent to me.I put an option in my program that will allow a user to redownload a setup file and repair a program installation and I wanted the program to automatically launch the msi file and pass a command line arguent to use the repair function in the installer.This code works perfectly to launch the installer, but the user has to manually click repair.

i would like to know that is there any way to activate a button with the Ctl and a key combination
we can do it with Alt and the key combination but my client is asking for ctrl & the key combination i have searched a lot but failed to find anything.
secondly :
i have used the alt & key combination for my buttons but the prob. is unless and untill the user presses the alt key the key combination is not highlighted. i have seen progs. where the key that is used for e.g. i have given &Add then the 'A' key is highlighted always with the underline. but when i am doing it by giving the name as &Add unless and untill the user presses alt the underline under A doesnt appear. do i have do more than just giving "&Add".

I have 4 textboxes three for input one for output. Basically what it does is takes input from textbox1, 2 and 3 then combines them in textbox4.here is an example:
textbox1.text = "AA" textbox2.text = "BB" textbox3.text = "CC" textbox4.text = "AABBCC"
what I am trying to do is is compare the input with the output.so take the first two characters in textbox4 and see if they are the same as in textbox1. then take the second two characters and see if they are the same as textbox2.
I know how to do it for just one string of characters but I am not sure how to seperate out different letters in one textbox.

On my program I am trying to make a form that would activate the program.I have the activation codes but when the user enters the activation code in a text box, is it possible that it would erase that activation code or wont accept that activation code again after being used once. Then if the program accepts the activation code can it open the main form (form1) and if the user closes the program and the re-opens the program, is it possible that the activation form doesn't open again and instead, going to the main form. I have this password code:
Private Sub textbox4_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MaskedTextBox1.KeyDown
Static WrongCount As Integer = 0[code].....
Then can there be slashes every 4 characters in the text box?

I need to activate SSL when my application logs on to a ftp server. I'm searching the net and I can't find some piece of code to work, the username and the password are in plaintext, they are visible
I use this for now but it doesn't work:
Dim request As FtpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(ftp://ftpwt.com), FtpWebRequest)
request.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("user", "password")
request.EnableSsl = True
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectory
request.KeepAlive = False
