Hi, I'm trying to develop a VB GUI that allows the user to download assemler code (Hex file) into microcontroller via a LAWICEL CANUSB.
I can now send signle message(8 Bytes.: example t1F0200081122334455667788, with ID:0x1F02000, DLC: 8 Bytes and Data:1122334455667788)

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.
View 11 RepliesLike 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.

How do you access a web page's source code without downloading the file? i.e., downloading a .php file generally wouldn't work - I want to access the code that it would return if I was using a browser.
View 6 RepliesBasically I want to create a little program with 5 or so text fields where I enter the specific names of movies. Upon pressing a "go" button it then does a google search(with certain criteria) for all textfield entries on the website [URL} and then download the files, if possible without opening a browser.
Search criteria:
-only video formats(.avi .mov etc)
-download url contains the "_de" tag (to insure german trailers)
That way it should hopefully find the right trailer and download it. If possible have it use progress bars.
How much work do you think this is? Or is it even possible? From a logical standpoint I don't think it's too much work... I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. My project currently is just full of test code but I will post it anyway:
Code:
Public Class Mainwindow
Private Sub Mainwindow_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

View 1 RepliesI was trying to use application.restart() to restart my application after downloading a new update. It seems to run into the problem where it is trying to start the new application before the original is closed so it errors out and never starts. After reading through some threads here I determined the better way to handle it would be
application.exit() process.start(application.executablepath) This didn't work and gave me what seems to be the same problem. I would also like to note this works fine when running the application through visual studios, it is only when I try to run this independent of VS2010 that the application never restarts.
I have two arraylists that contains links in one and the root url in the other. Sometimes the lists dont equal in number and I would like to iterate through the links list and if it contains a matching root url add it to a third list but also avoid any duplicates. I tried this but am not getting consistent results.

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.

View 3 RepliesIm 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've got a code in VB that will download a txt file from a website. The problem is I want this file to be downloaded into whatever folder that my program is in. for example, if my program was in C:
andom_folder then I would want this txt file downloaded to C:
andom_folder
Here is some of my
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile _
("http://www.mywebsite.com/test.txt", _
"define where file should go here")
But in the spot to put where to place the file, I can't just put C:andom_folder because individual users may have this program installed in other parts of there computer.

View 10 RepliesI am using AxWindowsMediaPlayer on VB.NET to preview MP3 files from the web so that the user can choose to download it if he likes it. It works. I just put a link in the URL property and after a while it begins playing. ... after a while, of course. Because it has to download the file first. Perhaps I realized that because of my slow connection XD. But that made me think: how can I tell if the player is currently downloading a file? So that I can put a label saying "Please wait, preparing file..." or something.

In my web app, I have an aspx page which contains an html table and several lines of text. I need users to be able to download this whole page as a separate file.
In the past I have used the a webclient to do this:
Dim myWebClient As New System.Net.WebClient
myWebClient.DownloadFile(strSource, strDest)
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=test.doc")
Response.Write("test.doc")
but it appears this is only able to download html pages.
