View 8 RepliesI am trying to import the GetWindowText in a VB.NET application.So based on other sites you just have to import the interopt service and add a DLLImport statement similar to C#. But somehow it is not recognizing the statement and getting a BC30001 (Statement is not valid in a namespace) compile error.
Here is the code I used.Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
<DllImport("user32", CharSet:=CharSet.Auto, SetLastError:=True)> _Public Shared Function GetWindowText(ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, <Out(), MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPTStr)> ByVal lpString As StringBuilder, ByVal nMaxCount As Integer) As Integer End Function

View 1 RepliesThe setup is running in 32 bit mode and the installer class is made with Visual Basic installer class.
Now the problem is, how to read SQL Server 2008 64 bit registry settings in Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit machine.
E.g. installed instances and the data paths for every instances.
I need to check the SQL Server instance name and read from registry the database location path for that instance.
By default it reads the 32 bit registry so it does not found the settings at all.
Example code that can be set in visual basic installer class would we nice.
I'm trying to create a simple file downloader (with GUI). I'm pretty new to Vb.net and I didn't find any usefull information about this in the books I own. All tutorials in the wild are making me more frustrated, since the snippets I use, in most cases, are different classes.What should I use? HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse or FileWebRequest/FileWebResponse?How do I save the ResponseStream to a file ?Is it possible to use ResponseStream to define the kind of File (FileInfo) Class to get basic file information (size, extension, etc) is it generally neccessary, if GetResponse().headers gives you most of this info ?
My code, which sucks, because I do not know how to realize the saving....
Private Sub btn_downloader_Click(ByVal sender...) Handles btn_downloader.Click
'e.g http://codeigniter.com/download.php'
Dim fileUrl As String = txtBox_url.Text
Dim webUri = New Uri(fileUrl)
[code]....
but I don't know what the buffer is and what it is for. Should I set some static values or any dynamic which deppends on Stream-data ?

View 9 RepliesI cannot get the VB monthcalendar control to obey any of the properties I set for it, or the commands I give it programatically. It works (sort of - but with obvious bugs) in the state it arrives when copied to a new form straight out of the toolbox, eg when I click on a date etc, however if I set the background colour in Properties (or programatically), or try to change the BoldedDates programatically (as per numerous examples I have found) it ignores me!
I can create a brand new project, new form, add the monthcalendar out of the toolbox, change its properties in the Properties window, & when I run it the changed properties (eg background colour) are totally ignored.
I've been looking all over the internet trying to figure out how to incorporate Speech Recognition into a program I'm designing in Visual Basic.I've downloaded and installed: Visual Basic 2008 express edition, Visual Basic 2010 express edition, Speech SDK 5.1, and the Windows SDK version 7.1.
I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong, or if maybe I have to use a different programming language like C# or C++...I don't know. I've looked through sample codes and tried a few, but in both Visual basic 2008 and 2010 they say the terms aren't recognized. like System.speech isn't recognized at all.
I would like to access to a SQL Server Database from my Visual Studio project.
I have SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed on my PC and I have a database with some tables.
In Visual Studio, I open the Database Explorer and I try to create a database connection.
The Add connection dialog box proposes to enter a database *file name* but I cannot select a database *server* and a database *name*.
Perhaps, is it a restriction because it is a free version ?
Within Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition, I can select a database *server* and a database *name* !
I am new to SQLSever, Visual Studio and Visual Basic. I have read through Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 by Michael Halvorson and Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 by Lars Powers and Mike Snell. These books mention the ability to use SQLServer as the DB but I am not clear on the process. I am not knew to programming an have had training in OO programming but have never done any OO programing professionally. So, you can assume I am new to OO programing.
I have created an SQL DB using the Server Explorer in VS, and created a Windows form with Labels, TextBoxes, and ComboBoxes for the application's user to add the demographic information about a new employee. I created a new query with the Query builder that is in the Employee table of the DB which contains all the field for the record for inserting. I have a few questions to understand the process for inserting into the DB.
The DB fields are defined as numeric(6, 0), nurmeric(5, 2), and char(30) for some examples.
The maxlength on the form windows are in sync with the maxlength of the DB for the various fields.
1. What is the process to update the DB with the fields from the form?
2. Do I need to declare and set the results from the form first? If so, how do I call the function (query) that I created in the Employee table.
3. The emp_num I would like to be a dynamically incrementing number starting from 1000. How do I make this a dynamic? The emp_num is also the key on the Employee table.
4. I have a decimal field on the Employee table to hold emp_rate (pay rate). Does the user enter the decimal on the Form or is this resolved by SQL to take the 7 numbers and insert the decimal beause of the table's field definition?
I have a program that can save to a .txt file.The issue is I need it to be done in a tab delimited way.Basically:
TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>
TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>
I have this so far, but all it does is put the TextBox1.Text next to TextBox2.Text
Code:
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*"
Dim FileWriter As StreamWriter
Dim results As DialogResult

Is it possible to import a query from Access 2003 into Visual studio 2010 (language used vb.net).

View 1 RepliesI've got .net v4 installed, and the SDK, and I've managed a Hello World msgbox winform .exe app using the free IDE "SharpDevelop", but that doesn't seem to have an Immediate Window which I'm a bit lost without. I also tried MonoDevelop but I couldn't get the Immediate Window there to work, and worse than that, I couldn't even find a way to design forms and plonk down some controls! I think their main interest is C# rather than VB? So it looks like I'm going to have to try the crippled Express Edition from MS - which feels annoyingly limiting from what I've seen - but I'm struggling to understand exactly what missing features would halt me in my tracks.Basically (pun intended, sorry) I'm hoping to see if I can upgrade myself to vb.net from some VB6 dabbling a few years ago. From what I've read it seems mostly quite manageable, I can understand the "everything's an object" concept, etc.
But, would I be able to produce useful software, deployable around the office with proper msi installer packages? If not, then I just won't have the motivation to progress beyond a few little experiments. The question is - can I actually do anything worthwhile without risking the waste of a considerable sum of money if I were to shell out for an uncrippled version?
I'd like a redist package (full single download) instead of the web installer (tiny single download, massive multiple at-runtime downloads). Anybody know where to get one?It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.
