Compare And Retrieve Documents From A Server?
Oct 4, 2009
I want to write a program using vb.net tht compares the name of a document on my desktop to the name of the document on the server. If they're the same then I'd like to retrieve it and have it replace the file I already have.How can i do this? Does this mean that i have to write a web application cuz i hope not. I dont no anything about those. I am using that server for storage purposes only so i assumed that i didnt need a database for the name of the document.

So, how can i do this? Is there an existing class/package in vb.net that does something like this?

I am trying to make a program that will compare 2 documents. Idealy what this program would do would be to let the user define key words that he/she is looking for then hit the compare button and have those key words higlighted in both text documents. So far I have 2 button that paste stext into eather box and button that says compare this is my current code for the compare button
If tb1.Text = tb2.Text Then MsgBox("compatible!", MsgBoxStyle.Information) this works great but it only works if the text is exactly the same I just want it to pick up on words that are the same in eather box and eather A. show a message box that tells the words that are the same or better yet B. have them highlighted. I want to do this as simply as possible so if we have to leave out the key words thats ok. I am a big noob and don't know too much about VB (although I came up with that basic code myself thats about all I can do XD) so please bare with me.

I am faced with quite a bit of a challenge: We have an (Oracle) database with about half a million documents in it. These documents are of all kinds of sorts: Office documents (.doc, .xls, etc.) but also email messages (.msg), text messages (.txt), images (.jpg, .gif, .bmp, .tif), .html files and even .zip files... The documents are saved in the database through an VB6 OLE container. So they are stored in the database in the same binary format as you would get when you call SaveToFile from the OLE container. Now I need to restore all these documents to their original files... For the Word documents I've found that I can read the binary data back into the OLE container and then use OLE automation for this by calling OleContainer.object.SaveAs(fileName). This works for about 90% of the Word documents. But for the other types of documents I haven't found yet how you can call the save function from code.

I have saved documents into my SQL Server 2005 database and they have been converted to bytes. My web page is made with VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008 with ASP.NET. The following is exactly what I need to achieve;
1. Allow user select document with a button
2. Select the document from the SQL Server table
3. Allow the user to download this document.
The error I am getting is that Category is set as Byte and it can't be passed through GetDocument because filePath is a String. I think that I am pulling the file path from the database wrong
[Dim Category As Byte() = NothingDim fs As FileStreamDim br As BinaryReaderDim document As Byte()Dim documentFilePath As String

I have this database with a table which has the the following but I have no way to decypher it
DATA, TYPE, FILE TYPE, SIZE, DOC TYPE
0x15234324 , Word.Document.8 ,DOC, 19968, WORD.DOCUMENT.8
The field seems to contain a word document stored in a SQL Server IMAGE column
Has anyone come across this before or a way to extract this data in a readable format?
So far I have tried using PHP to extract the file and write it to a word document but not had much luck.
UPDATE: I now have Visual Studio Express and would like a way to extract this data and save to a word document
UPDATE2: This is what I have in VB sofar
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.IO

In our VB.Net application, we need to get the path to our data folder in Public Documents. In our standalone application this is straighforward using the SHGetFolderPath function. However, for our network application, we run into a problem when we load the application on a Win 7 server and run it from a Win XP workstation. From the workstations, SHGetFolderPath returns the workstation's public documents folder instead of the what we want, which is the server's public documents path.Is there any way within the application to query the public documents path on the server?

I am not an expert programmer and am just getting familiar with .NET office automation. I have two questions:
1. For me to create word documents from my code on a server, does word have to be installed on the server? My test server does not have word installed. Is there a way to have the code open word on the user's machine in this case?
2. I am trying out some code for creating word documents. It works fine on my machine. However, when I try to run it on server it gives me an error.. "Cannot create ActiveX component." Is this a permissions issue or related to the fact that the server does not have word installed?

I have a Search web reference (from a Search Server 2010 express install) in a vb.net application that is utilizing the QueryService Class to search a production Sharepoint foundation 2010 site.At a previous point in time, we had created a proof of concept on an entirely test system that has since been turfed. From my recollection on this test system when documents were uploaded as a specific site content type (that inherits from document) and metadata was provided, we could search for specific metadata by making managed properties for each, and search results would be returned as documents (with the isdocument flag set to true). Viewing the document then became simple, as we could simply use the filename and path to display the stored file.Now we are developing a production system and we have encountered a new behavior, where these results now are returned as aspx results such as
[URL]
This of course makes it terribly difficult to locate and view the document, we can extract the Title which will then give us the name of the file with no extension, but that hardly helps, as the FileExtension data is aspx, not the documents file extension, so we don't have a full filename. We could display the page returned as a result, but would much prefer the document itself.
I've made a test document library, with just bare bones setup, (not using the site content type, or site columns) and uploaded some documents on the same site, and they are returned in the same fashion, so I don't believe the document library, or content type are the issue.
With a fairly limited understanding of both Sharepoint and Search Server, I don't know if this is a setup issue with the search service itself, with the site configuration, or with the querypacket I am sending. We also have a third party application (Knowledgelake) installed on the server that ties into sharepoint which could have changed configuration somewhere as well?
I don't think the query packet has changed since it was working in the proof of concept, other than the custom data column names. I will provide it here in case there is something glaringly obvious to an external reader.
<QueryPacket xmlns='urn:Microsoft.Search.Query.Document'>"
<Query>
<SupportedFormats>
<Format>urn:Microsoft.Search.Response</Format>

I've been asked to get the page counts for documents stored as tif files. What I have now is looping through our third party software to open them and then get the page count. I can't stop the image from flashing and it is very slow. Does anyone know of a way to loop through them quickly and can the page counts (one image can have many documents)?

have a table in SQL Server Ex 2005 containing a column called "geboortedatum" (datetime)When I open the table the date is shown like this: "31-12-2011 0:00:00".When I use the query designer and execute the query select geboortedatum from table: the date is shown like: "2011-12-31 0:00:00".he problem is that I want to use the datetimepicker in VB.NET to compare the date in a SQL statement that looks like this:
strZoekGeboorteDatum = String.Format("AND M.GeboorteDatum > " & Me.dtpZoekMedewerkerGebDatVan.Value
But probably the comparison is:

I'm willing to compare a textfile (whatever) which contains a few lines of text. After the comparison it should download and replace the "changed" folder/file. E.g.
(Local txtFile)
maps: 1.0.0
db1: 1.0.0
db2. 1.0.0
(Server txtFile)
maps: 1.0.1
db1: 1.0.0
db2. 1.0.0

i have 2 queries in vb.net with an if clause -
if x=0 then
insert into table1
else
update table1
both queries have 5 fields. now what i want to do is after this insert or update takes place, i need to look at this inserted/updated record and compare it with another table (table2). Especially for update, i have 5 fields in both tables. if any of the 5 fields dont match with table2, then i insert a new record in table 2 which is the updated record in table 1.

theyI had a asp.net (vb) web application to store work overtime (OT) records. In SQL server, the OT table likes this, e.g.:
[Code]...
As user will input previous date OT records, so the records in db will not be in sequence. the date of records#14 is before records#13. if user want to know which OT records cover the last 2 hours, the system should retrieve record #15 (90mins) & #13 (30mins) because they covers the final 2 hours. How to write the SQL statement to retrieve the records?

Created an XSD file that represents my table structure from my database. Created a class file to hold my functions such as the one below.
Code sample:
Public Function GetUser(ByVal UserID As String) As xsdUser.UserDataTable
Dim SqlConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MyDatabase").ConnectionString)
[Code]....
Now it seems odd to me to have two files doing what should be contained within just one file. I feel like I should have one class file called "User" and have member variables in there along with the class functions like the one above. But all the tutorials I see are using these data tables. On top of that I'm not sure how to handle the if statement at the end of the function. I don't think I would want to return a whole DataTable since I should only have one row, and I also don't know how I would handle an error if my function is supposed to return a data table. I suppose I could return an empty one and then if the table is empty in my code then I would handle it there, but this also seems messy.
Is this the common way of retrieving information from a stored procedure? Or is there a more up-to-date method that I'm not seeing in my search results?
