App That Reads From The Com Port, Filters The Data, Then Writes To The Text Box?

Mar 15, 2009

I am writing an app that reads from the com port, filters the data, then writes to the text box, then immediately starts over. This all takes place in an endless " do while" loop within the "start" button code. I also have a end button too which closes the com port and ends the program. Some other buttons are present also to change the filter settings.Problem is when I click start, data is logged, but none of the other buttons work. Also some of the text boxes are "see through" and dont look like thy have updated with the rest of the form.

IO.Ports.SerialPort - Writes Fine, Reads Proving?

Jan 24, 2012

I'm having a bit of trouble with the SerialPort class I'm hoping someone might be able to shed some light on. Specifically, writing to the port appears to work without incident. However, reading data is proving problematic. Initially I thought it was my hardware, but testing suggested the fault lied in software. I was able to confirm this with the installation of a loopback device on the port. It tends to be missing bytes, inserting bad bytes, and shifting bytes randomly.

Buffering Writes The Serial Port?

Feb 21, 2009

Im trying to buffer data being written to a device on a com port. The equipment attached to it does not use any form of flow contol and if you write to much information to quickly it falls over. So I have had the following thoughts.

I would create a list of strings and when I wanted to write data to the com Port I would just add the string to the list. I would then have a Sub running its own thread to step through the list, write the string to the com port ,pause a fixed amount of time, remove string from list and repeat until the list is empty. Then keep looping the above.

Code I have so far is below

Private MsgList as new List (of string)
Private sub MsgPump ()
Do

[Code]....

THis does work but If I add strings to MsgList to quickly it throws an exception.

Application That Opens A Session To A Specific IP Port / Writes To A Test File Everything It Receives

Feb 20, 2009

I've had a search through a number of extremely useful articles on the forums, however rather than reinvent the wheel I thought I would ask if anyone already had what I am looking for..A simply little VB app that opens a session to a specific IP port and then writes to a test file everything it receives. If the connection drops, simply re-stablish it and keep listening for text to write to the file.

Filter Data Based On The Drop Down Filters?

Jul 27, 2011

I am looking to find the best way to do the following: Filter data based on the drop down filters, as long as I am within the same product category (e.g. toys, puzzles, etc...), but in different web forms (product grid and product detail).So if I select toys under $25, I need the filter to the toys in a grid format, but if I click to view the detail I need the filter information so I can filter the related items display.Display certain filters depending on the product category.Right now I believe that if I build a user control and session variables that I should be able to accomplish this.

EDIT: Right now I am using the page_load event to update the data and would like to avoid AJAX for right now.

Comport Reads Errors After Number Of Good Reads

Jan 28, 2009

I have a hardware which sends out packets containing 17 bytes to the comport in bursts of 3. the little test VB that I have written receives and displays the bytes in a line of 17 bytes long and works fine until it gets to around 170th packet, then it starts to mix up (looks like shifting the data left) the bytes shift mostly by one digit sometimes by two. then it will continue to give almost a packet correct and a packet shifted for about 50 packets. Then it will correct itself for a long while, but then the speed at which it receives drops. All the packets are sent 3 times, and before things go wrong (within the first 170 packets) the packet counter shows that it receives 3 packet each time but after the problem it goes to 2 packet per burst and then to one.

If i close my VB monitoring program say at packet 165 and immediately open it again, it wont go wrong for another 170 packets, this points the finger at VB. I have check my hardware, there is no problem with that.The program reads port - waits for 17 bytes - once 17 has been received it will go and buffer the packet in an array. In fact they are 2 arrays but printing fro either results in the same problem.I have tried whatever i could think of but to no avail, i am wondering if some kind of house keeping needs to be done to clear something... I am sorry the program is a bit messy but I have been making many changes to find out what the problem is - my code below:[code]

Takes Data And Writes It To A MS Excel Spreadsheet?

May 25, 2007

I have a program that currently takes data and writes it to a MS Excel spreadsheet. (automatically opens the program, creates the cells, and fills them with data)

I would like to add an additional feature to my program that offers support for OpenOffice.org's 'Calc' spreadsheet program. (so users without MS Excel can use the application) So I am basically asking if anyone knows how to automate OpenOffice 'Calc' from VB.net. (I am using Visual Studio 2005)

I have searched on the OpenOffice forums but no one seems to know the vb.net code for this. So I was wondering if anyone here has done this, or would know how to do this.

EXCEL Reads A Text String As Scientific Notation

Dec 31, 2007

I am working on a project that involes reading an Excel file, picking through it, then creating a flat CSV file. One of the the data elements I am picking up is a 9 character string that may be numeric, or contain one or more alpha chatacters. Excel has a nasty habit of converting long numerics to scientific notaion. I can overcome this by converting the "general" string to "TEXT".

However, there is one instance where I can not get the function to work...the string is "90333E108" ( the CUSIP for USU). Regardless, the text string is saved properly into the CSV file. When opened in a text editor, it reads correctly.

When opened with Excel, it is in scientific notation. Changing the field to "text" from "scientific" still displays "9.03E+112".

how to create an csv file that Excel will open and read correctly?

You can test this by creating an Excel workbook, format all cells as TEXT and add the following data:

90333E108
123
2

The format of the text file is as follows:

Which record company did the Beatles create? (tab)Apple Records (tab)Sony (tab)BMG (tab)LiteFM (tab)Apple Records (tab) Which has the highest mountain? (tab)Mars (tab)Ireland (tab)Iceland (tab)America (tab)Mars(tab) With a set amount of lines. I want the program to choose each question randomly and not to repeat the question. I'm not sure how to incorporate it into the code.

.net - SerialPort Reads Are Returning Fragmented Sets Of Data?

Oct 17, 2011

I have a USB device which creates a Virtual Serial Port on Windows. I am using VB.Net to write and read from the port. My device responds with specific sized set of bytes, but I am finding that SerialPort.Read(byte-array,offset,number-bytes) does not return the full number-bytes but it also does not timeout or generate an exception. Repeated calls return additional fragments (up to 3 calls required). Python code using pySerial does not have the same problem.So, what am I doing wrong here? Am I expecting too much?

Some scenarios are:I write a command to the port and expect to get 4 bytes in response. I get 1 byte first and then 3 bytes on the subsequent call.I write a command and expect 21120 bytes in response. I get 1, 12671 and then 8448 bytes in 3 calls to read from the port.

Here are some excerpts from my code:

Private Sub SetupVirtualSerialPort()
Dim portName As String = "COM" + (m_DeviceContext * -1).ToString
Const baud As Int32 = 9600 '7680000
Const parity As Parity = parity.None

German Windows Decimals - Reads Some Text From An Access Database?

Feb 14, 2011

I'm having problem with our germany customers whose operating system uses dot as thousand separator and comma as decimal point.I have an application which reads some text from an Access database, parse it into data and display on a datagridview,the program also needs to write the data into another file as input to another application. right now, it seems when my application parses doubles (say 0.2500),germany os will always return everything except the decimal dot(so 0.2500 becomes 2500),and that just messed up the whole process...so my question is, how can we detect the locale of the windows and parse the doubles correctly?
