I was wondering if there was a way of pulling text from a website and the displaying it in a label, text box, etc.My idea isn't malicious in nature, I just want to be able to pull text from a specific page and then compare it with another page.
Ok, so someone I know said in order to do this, I need to do WebRequests.So I have this site for example: [url]Say I want to post to that textbox("Hello"), then I want to click the button. So far, this is all I know [url]
Ok I want to get info on this website.the id is funds and it's a number. Funds is a variable and I want the value of funds to be transferred to funds.caption
I tried
funds.caption = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("funds") but it doesn't work
the value for funds is 2872 which changes everytime I find money ( ye, its a game) andI want that value to show on funds.text and same for weapons, defense and so on.
I am working on a media player, and I would like to setup a local playlist feature. I am using a single ListBox and its "Display-" and "Value-Member" properties. The display is the song's Artist and Name, and the value is the song's file path (i.e 'C:UsersUSERMusicetc.').To write the file path to the .txt file, I believe I can use the following code:[code]
I am making a program, obviously, and I require some assistance. I found an explanation on how to read information from a Text file and have modified it for my needs. Here is my (modded) version:
Public Function GetInfo(ByVal playlistname As String) As String On Error Resume Next Dim PlaylistInfo As String
I'm making a database app. I've finish the search, add new, and add function. What I'm trying to do is to expand the functionality of the add new item function.
I am trying to do is fill out a form with certain info, put the info into an array, and write it to a listbox using loops, arrays, and maybe a function if I need one. This is for VB2010 and here is what I have so far... I think there are ways to make it shorter but I cannot figure it out.... maybe just brain dead from all the coffee I have been drinking!
how to correlate info from a textbox based on a listbox item selection. For example the user will select an item from the listbox, enter say the length of a song in the textbox say 2:00 for song #1, select say song #2, enter the song time for that song say 3:00, click on song #1 again and have the same textbox display the length of that song and be able to do that until there are no more songs on the list.
What Im making is like a face book and tagged login from my app

I have a ASP.NET 2.0 website created in C# that acts as a completely independent site and I am looking to integrate this into an existing ASP.NET 2.0 website created in VB.NET. Unfortunately I just don't know much about the server management side of ASP.NET yet so too much I'm unaware of when it comes to IIS configuration etc. Does anyone have any advice as to how I can go about integrating this? Basically I want to host it in a subdirectory from root so when you hit example.com/myindependantsite/ it will pull up my C# site.
One possible solution I came across mentioned just dropping the project folder into the root directory and setting up that directory as an application virtual directory in IIS? A few other random questions were small things like would my application relative links (~/for-example.aspx) stay relative to my root subdirectory if it's made into an application virtual directory? Just trying to get this running on their site but like I said it's completely independent so want to preserve my websites environment.
I want to create a program to fetch information from a website (that's fine). However, you need to be logged in to get this information. I just want two simple textbox controls that I would type my username and password into and hit submit and the information would be returned to me so I can use it. (I don't want to use a webbrowser control)

Is there a way where the server(TcpListener) can get clients(TcpClients) IP address and Stats.BytesSent and Stats.BytesReceived remotely? I have a server/client project and I'm having a hard time distributing message received to designated labels. Clients send information like IP address and other stuff to the server, is it possible that clients won't send anymore the information instead the server extracts it remotely?

Example table:client_id <= auto incremented valuefirst_nameIf you have a combolist that is generated with a list of data that includes client_id and first_name, but if the combolist is displaying the first_name. How can I pass the client_id of the selected item to a function or something?
I have a 3rd party program that has an internal messaging system built into it. The messages are stored in SQL. What I am doing is writing a program that will query this database on a specific interval and if it finds a message for a specific user it will take the text of that message and send it to the users email address(ie. gmail, yahoo, etc.). The issue is when the program quesries I only want it to grab the message that have not been sent. Each message in the system gets an ID assigned to it so what I'm trying is everytime it finds a message to send to the user it will write the ID of that message to a text file so that next time the query comes around it will compare the ID in the text file to the most recent ID in the database and if it is newer message it will get it and send it. I'm not trying to display any data from the query, just take the messsage text and send it.

so my data layer works with functions that return datasets. These datasets are generated by passing a stored procedure name, and a parameter array. Works absolutely great. Now, in my stored procedures i do a couple of print 'something' statements as part of a debug process. Is there any way I can read this information from .Net? Obviously, the select statement is returned to the dataset. what would be great is if I can create a log file, that prints the other info that i return via print.
