Why is it that this VB.NET code only works for detecting flash disks?
Select Case m.WParam
Case WM_DEVICECHANGE_WPPARAMS.DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL
MsgBox("USB Inserted")[code].....
What would be the possible way to detect the insertion and removal of other USB peripherals, such as mouse and keyboard?

View 1 RepliesI am having problem with my FYP that my application is based on the detection of Insertion and Removal of a device. I am aware that this would happen using Win32_VolumeChangeEvent class or WMI. (Please notify me if I am wrong). Kindly solve this problem and send the code for Console Application in VB.NET. Please do not send code in any script language or C#. Also to get the device information.
View 6 Repliesscardgetstatuschange DOES wait(timeout is set INFINITE by -1) for card-insertion after connecting the reader-device to the pc. After a card is being insterted the first time and removed again, it won't wait any longer and returns immediately everytime;
lResult = SCardGetStatusChange(DethContext, -1, rgReaderState(0), 1)
So, scardgetstatuschange CAN work. But why only when i re-attach the cardreader-device to the pc????
I know you can do it with an WMI event or overriding WndProc and looking for the right messages, but i was wondering if there wasn't something hidden in the net framework that makes this task easyer.

removal of items in a collection or list using the " For Each " statement to iterate through.This code works:
For Each item As ListViewItem In ListView1.SelectedItems
ListView1.Items.Remove(item)
Next
This code does not:
For Each itemChecked As Object In CheckedListBox1.CheckedItems
CheckedListBox1.Items.Remove(itemChecked)
Next
I have been reading on this for hours today to find out why the first code block works, but the second does not.What I've learned is the "For Each" statement implements the IEnumerable interface. I have seen these terms used many times and scratched my head when it didn't make scense, then just moved along, something to strain my brain about later.Today was later...So since the IEnumerable interface is used, the .GetEnumerator method of the IEnumerable interface is called upon at the beginning of the "For Each" block, this evaluates the collection or list as in: For Each item As ListViewItem In myCollection This is done at the beginning of the iteration through the myCollection, so if the myCollection is altered as in:
For Each itemChecked As Object In myCollection
CheckedListBox1.Items.Remove(itemChecked)
Next
The altering of the list returns the error:List that this enumerator is bound to has been modified. An enumerator can only be used if the list does not change.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to write an application which will have different functions depending on someone's security level, but my bosses have ruled out holding a users name and password information in a database due to risk of the database being hacked.So I have decided to use USB flash drives, which will have encrypted datafiles on them, and each staff member will be given one with their details pre-programmed onto them.However I am now stuck with detecting whether the device is present or not, I have thought I can continually scan the available drives and have each flash drive with a set volume label and when it arrives act upon it, but I don't want to keep continually scanning the drives, there has to be a better way than this, .

If so, what is it, and what else do I have to do?

I am creating a program in which there is a listview control with many items contained in it. It also has checkboxes for each of them. I am trying to get it so that when you check the checkbox next to an item, it removes the item from the list. I am using this code:
Private Sub ListView1_ItemCheck(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ItemCheckEventArgs) Handles ListView1.ItemCheck
ListView1.Items.RemoveAt(e.Index)
End Sub
When I run this however, and check an item, it gives me this error (I am checking the first item in the listview, which would mean the index is 0): InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'index'. Parameter name: index
I've have been testing this code out for both the listview events ItemCheck and ItemChecked. How is 0 out of the index range? Wouldn't it be the first item in the listview, in which case it should remove the item.
I am working on a parental control system for my webbrowser (checks if navigated page is on the blacklist). So I was looking for a list of sites to add to the system as default, I didn't find any but my friend did, but the problem is he gave me a list, for example, with lots of lines like this:
http:somename:something@website.com
http:somename1:something1@website2.com
How can I remove everything from the "@" till the "http;" (including http) and remove it all so only the website name stays? I could do it by hand/notepad, but it would take forever as the list has over 2k sites I would like to add in my blacklist! I thought maybe strings could do it?
I am using a Rich TextBox in VB.NET and passing to a StringBuilder. I need to replace the New Line character from the TextBox with either a space or a comma.

The task at hand was to remove all session variables. What would be the best way to represent this data without the use of session. Originally i was told to put all session items into a cookie, while this worked for most of the items it will not work for this due to the cookie size limitation, Im also not to keen on the idea of keeping it in ViewState or even if that is an option. Im very new to VB and dont have much expierence re-writting legacy code. Session is not an option because this is being moved into a web-farm and Sticky sessions are turned off so it must work without session.
the rules are that same coloured blocks of two or more can be removed by clicking on them. blocks then slide down from above. if a column is empty columns other columns move in from the sides.when someone clicks on the green blocks in the bottom row the columns should slide in from the sides. columns to the left of the black line slide right and on the right of the black line slide left. so in this case only the two rightmost columns should slide from the right to the black line after removing the green blocks.The problem i am having is in designing a suitable algorihm to do the collapsing after the removal. my current approach is to test each column from left to right to see if it is empty. if it is empty then i slide whatever column is to the left (if left of the black line) or to the right (if to the right of the black line) over the blank column and repeat this in the direct i am sliding from

I've been trying to learn enough to develop the family tree diagram and making progress.[URL]..It illustrates many of the drawing, saving, re-opening, editing, drag/drop features that the family tree diagram would need, and is a good starting point.
To adapt this for the project, after searching for snippets online, I've tried to add dynamic insertion of a label as a start (eventually, it should be a textbox that the user, in runtime, can enter text into, save, re-open, edit). But, I can't get this to work. No errors display, but I must be doing something wrong.
Here's the label code which I've so far appended at the end:

I have recently been working on a number of sections of code that deal with the insertion of Nullable types into a database. As I'm sure anyone who has dealt with similar code will be aware of the annoyance of constantly writing conditional logic to deal with the insertion of nulls into a database. I.e.:
MyValue.HasValue ? MyValue.Value : DBNull.Value;
If(MyValue.HasValue, MyValue.Value, DBNull.Value)
Basically I am just wondering why DBNull.Value exists and why Null simply couldn't be used?
