View 2 RepliesI feel like an idiot for asking this question again, as I know it's been asked several times. I cannot for the life of me get this code working even with the answers that have already been provided, so I'm hoping that by offering my current code, someone can help me determine where I'm going wrong:
Dim RSSReader As New Xml.XmlTextReader("http://stackoverflow.com/feeds")
Dim RSSDoc As New Xml.XmlDocument()
Dim NSMgr As New Xml.XmlNamespaceManager(RSSDoc.NameTable)
NSMgr.AddNamespace("atom", "http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom")
RSSDoc.Load(RSSReader.GetRemainder())

When I read XML in RSS 1.0 or 2.0 the following line works perfectly:
tmp_str_a = feedXML.Root.<channel>.<title>.Value
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" media="screen" href="/~d/styles/rss2full.xsl"?>

View 2 RepliesI use vb.net 2008 to create a desktop application.I have a form that is resized according to the size/location of the app bar (where the start button is)I have a toolbar at the top, a status bar at the bottom of the form and a grid in the middle of the form I want the size of the grid to be the maximum possible on my form.if and when the user resize his application bar (or move it from the bottom to one of the sides) my form size should change according to the new working area size:
H = My.Computer.Screen.WorkingArea.Height
W = My.Computer.Screen.WorkingArea.Width
is there a single event that I can use ? currently I called my resize function in several form events: Activated, ClientSizeChanged, Load,Paint,LocationChanged,RegionChanged.And still it is not working correctly! Resize the app bar size or move it form does not change !
If I minimize it and then display it again or click it - it changes size
May i ask you based on your codes last time to create a button, is this how i modify to delete off the button after i clicked on it? So that means to say i click on this button at location 15,41 then only this button will be deleted. the below is my code to delete the button but it is not consistent as sometimes it can delete more than one button when i click on one button.
Dim dr As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure?", "Check", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)
If dr = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then
PictureBox1.Controls.Remove(BTN)

View 1 RepliesI am trying to figure something out. I have an application in which I am adding the ability to consume a feed. I have no problem with the feed itself, but my problem is how can I mark certain items as 'read'? The only thing I can thing of is to read the feed into a database. In this database, I add a column for 'read' which I update when the user has read the article. Then each time I retrieve the feed, I compare the feed to the database and only load new items into the database.

I just ordered a new Netbook with runs an Intel Atom (N330)Duo Core.It will have Windows 7 64-bit.(Asus Eee PC1201N)The laptop I code on runs Windows Vista/32-bit OS.I recall reading you can specify the compiler for "any cpu"?Is there a means to have the final build be 64-bit?Or would "any" work fine?(Is there any difference between the 32-bit and 64-bit exe?

Now as you can see it is sending the textbox1 text and then pressing enter then sending textbox2 text! Theres quite a few problems in that but before i discuss note: This code is in a Timer. Problem #1: It does not send the keys fully correct all the time because its trying to send them all at once! So i want it to send them 1 letter after the other with 200 ms sleep in them! Problem #2: The sleep is not working: The reason i know is because even after it did the first textbox1 text it didnt wait that 2000 ms!
CODE:
That code works to read the entry data and to recognise the correct data, and the incorrect. However, even if entry is correct, the error msgbox will appear (x times of how many records there are in file), despite being navigated to the menu. Anyway that the Else isn't triggered when data is correct. Also for it to appear just one instead of (x times of how many records there are in file.)
I have a question regarding how can i use a method name configurable to be called.
E.g
1.I have a xml file with three elements looking like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<root>
<element attribute1="a" attribute2="b" attribute3="Send" />
</root>
[Code]....
So after i add the values to the list, for example : element.ThirdElement() will have the value from attribute3 ("Send"). Also element.secondElement() will retain the value from attribute2 and so on.
Is it possible to read a string and call the method of the same name?For example: I have many buttons and if the user presses the button named A1, I want the Sub AI() to be called. I don't want to do an explicit If-Then for each button. Rather a common ONCLICK method that is called by all buttons and another method (the same name as the name of the button) is called.
Example:
Sub Click(byVal buttonName as string)
call ButtonName ' <<<< Error. ButtonName is string and not a Method.
End Sub
Any simple/easy (emphasis on easy, I am a major beginner) to read through text files quickly, search for strings and pull information. I am currently using the 'StreamReader' function and 'InStr' command, but the files I am working with are gigantic and this is taking from 1/2 an hour to a few hours to work its way through.
Here is a sample of the code I am currently using - poke fun at will, I am a major newbie.
strContentsTime1_jntfor=0
Do Until strContentsTime1_jntfor Is Nothing
strContentsTime1_jntfor = objFile1.ReadLine()
'look for string 'time'
strFindStringTime_jntfor = "time"

I have a problem with read() method of serial port class, when I build my program my application doesn't respond or blocked!!
My code was something like this:
dim bRxdata(6) as Byte
...
serialport1.read(bRxdta, 0, 6)
I use vb 2008 xpress, win7 x86.
These are the directions for the assignment.So far I am able to get the file read and printed onto a list box.The book we have for the class does not clearly talk about using the array of structure method with formatting an imported text file.After that I'm pretty much having a bit of trouble with everything else.I know I can figure most of it out but what I'm having a big amount of trouble with is the array of structures that he wants.I know that when I have the file imported that I need to save it temporarily and go through it and at every ":" put it in an array and save that spot and then keep scanning through the file. I know it is going to be a for loop using the index to count through but I'm not sure if how to start it.This is how the text file that he wants sorted out looks.

I have a text file (CSV) approx 100k lines (8Mb). I want to search the entire file for a particular string eg, "apple" and for all lines containing the string to be printed in a text box. have successfully done this using streamReader to parse the CSV and check each element against the search word eg. apple. This has proven to be very very slow and I have read that the "ReadAllLines" method is much faster.
View 8 RepliesI have written server code in vb.Net. I want it to read to variables sent by another server's HTTP 'GET' request. For example the first server will send this URL [URL]msgid=$messageid where the values to be used by my server are sender, receiver, msgdata, recvtime and msgid I have written my code but it only reads the address sent by the http server and locates for the file in the server's root directory. I want the server to be reading the variables sent by the other server using the HTTP 'GET' request. My code is shown below
' the web server only accepts get requests.
If Mid(LCase(sbuffer), 1, 3) <> "get" Then
'if not GET request then close socket and exit

View 7 RepliesI have created a basic query generator which allows a user to select the Select, WHERE and criteria attributes using a number of checkboxes.However i have got stuck. In the results form i have the following code
Private Sub DisplayRecord()
RichTextBox1.Text = ds.Tables("newResults").Rows(intCurrentRecord).Item(0)
RichTextBox2.Text = ds.Tables("newResults").Rows(intCurrentRecord).Item(1)
RichTextBox3.Text = ds.Tables("newResults").Rows(intCurrentRecord).Item(2)
[code]....
The program keeps on crashing if the user does not select the corresponding amount of display records from above for the amount of attributes they want for the SELECT part of the query in the intreface in form 1.
How would i go about making something where the number of SELECT attributes selected which are listed in a string create the correct number of textbox fields in the results form (form2)
I am having trouble extracting the response XML from an XMLHTTP request.
I am currently subscribed to a RSS Feed, [URL]
The code I have only retrieves the first 20 posts rather than all of the 133 posts that I see.
I am linking the problem to cookie settings. I seem to think that the request I am sending is not incorporating the cookie settings that I have on my computer.
You may have to subscribe to a feed to extract more than 20 posts. The standard for RSS feeds (without subscriptions) only allows a user to view 20 posts, HOWEVER, with subscription, the feed's number of posts grows.
Provided is the code I have implemented so far
Sub tester()
Dim xmlreq As MSXML2.XMLHTTP
Dim xmldoc As MSXML2.DOMDocument
Dim strurl As String

I'm semi new to visual basic, and I wanted to know if it is possible to make an RSS feed in visual basic that updates through a homepage that I give a link to and will post the information about the homepage in a text box or in seperate labels and perhaps have them link to the feed it is getting the info from. This I slikely far fetched but if there is any way to bring an RSS feed into the picture for my launcher for world of Warcraft that I am making customly, (Yes I know the regular wow launcher is good but I have a custom one I made with command buttons that lead to forums and homepage and play retail wow along with a private server command button)

I am reading data from an API feed and saving the chunks into files. When the files reach 2 MB I start a new file and write to that file. What happens now is that an entry (<entry></entry>) can get cut off at the end of a file and continues into the new file. I try and reconstruct the files by taking the last entry and combining it with the first entry of the next file but this is tedious handling the data transmission and file creation.
Do
timestamp = DateTime.Now
numbytesread = responseStream.Read(bufferread, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)
If numbytesread > 123 Then
'timestamp = DateTime.Now
responseData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString

How do I consume my WordPress blog's RSS feed to display my latest blog posts on my homepage? I ran into the following piece of code to do this:
Function GetRSSFeed(strURL as String) as DataTable
'Get the XML data
Dim reader as XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(strURL)
[Code]....
But it errors out at this line: 'ds.ReadXml(reader)' with the following error:
A column named 'comments' already belongs to this DataTable.
Perhaps it doesn't work since this code is from 2003? Does anyone have a working code sample?
