Launch An Application Called Foxit Reader Pdf Reader?
May 18, 2011
I want to launch a application called Foxit Reader pdf Reader .I know System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path) can do it but . Requirements are Foxit Reader should be installed on machine.Now if it is installed how to serarch for the path of its Executable to provide the parameter as I can not hardcode the path for different machines.
I am having an issue with both Adobe Reader and FoxIt Reader when trying to print a PDF document. Both issues are different but a solution to either one will allow me to fix my issue.The issue I am having with Adobe Reader when trying to print using the following code is that it will not print it to the network printer I specify but just the default printer.
Dim AdobeReader As New Process AdobeReader.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = False AdobeReader.StartInfo.Verb = "print"
how would I accomplish saving a large piece of data, using the Stream Reader for the Line-by-Line, while keeping the carriage return line feeds in there?
I have a simple RSS reader in a Web Browser application I am making. But whenever I click "Show RSS feeds" which makes my RSS reader window show, my application goes non-responsive! VB 2008 isn't registering any errors or warnings!
I've got an application that reads a XML file via a stream reader. The problem is I can't edit my XML file and save it when others are using the application that is using the XML file at the time. how can i get around this?

I am trying to build a retail store application that uses a barcode reader. I need to know how to get the barcode data in my application and use it against my items database.
I'm making a browser and for the favorites I'm using a reader and writer to read and write new favorite to a .txt file. Now if I edit the text file manually and load up the browser, the favorites show up as they should but the problem comes in when I add the a new favourite and then reload the application. Once reloaded the favorites seem to copy what was originally in the file and then whatever I added last at the bottom.
Here is the Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click WebBrowser1.Navigate(TextBox1.Text) ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text) [Code] .....
I am currently rewriting a VBA XML reader to a VB.net version for a project. I have the following code in VBA:
Dim XML_Doc As Object: Set XML_Doc = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument") Dim XML_Detail As New ADODB.Recordset: XML_Detail.ActiveConnection = "Provider=MSDAOSP; Data Source=MSXML2.DSOControl.2.6;"
I was told that I should be able to use almost the exact code in my VB.Net version but I am running into some problems. I added as a reference to the VB.net project the Microsoft ActiveX 2.8 so I can use the ADODB.
The code in VB.Net is
Dim XmlDoc As Object : XmlDoc = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument") Dim XmlDetail As New ADODB.Recordset : XmlDetail.ActiveConnection = "Provider=MSDAOSP; Data Source=MSXML2.DSOControl.2.6;"
When running the application it gets to the XmlDetail and throws the following error:System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was unhandled. Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
I am attempting to read specific lines of GIANT text files (> 150 MB) with hundreds of thousands of lines. The files are contained on an FTP site. I can successfully open the files using FTPwebrequest and streamreader but to get to a specific line using streamreader, you have to read every line before it. Obviously this takes a lot of time when you need to get to the millionth line.
A much faster way, I think, would be to use filestream and the filestream.position function. However, I'm not sure how to open a file as a filestream from FTP. I have tried:
Dim ftpaddress as string = "ftp://####@ftp.textfile.asc+" Dim fileStream1 As New FileStream(ftpaddress, IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read)
I've been developing a simple virus scanner and it works by reading the hex code of a file and comparing it to signatures from a database. Anyway, the only thing slowing it down is how it reads the hex. This is the hex reading part of my code so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LoadFile.Click Dim ArrayHold() As Byte Dim Index As Integer = 0 Dim Str As New StringBuilder
I'm looking forward to make a system using a BCode Reader. Like the way when a book has a correspond barcode and when it scan by a BCode reader the correspond info on the book will be showed in he system. So how to code the BCode reader and how it will determine the barcode of a book or what ever items that has a barcode?
How do I really use data reader in vb.net. I'm using odbc to connect mysql and vb.net. Function I declared on a module:
Public Function form2search(ByVal drugname As String) As OdbcDataReader cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM drug WHERE Drug_name LIKE'%" & drugname & "' " Return cmd.ExecuteReader End Function [Code] .....
I see a result, but it only loads the first item on the database. I've put this code in the text_changed event. What's the proper way of doing this? And what's wrong with the 2nd code, why is it only loading the first data. As you can see the con is the module where I declared the function. Then I created an object of it in the form.
Using VB 2010 on W7 x64 and I'm getting the HID device registered OK but then I never get the WM_INPUT messages. I test it on x32 Vista and same thing... no WM_INPUTs.
In an older program I am now maintaining, a SQL query is issued and the results are fed in to a DataTable and accessed through a DataTableReader.I see lots of lines like:
myInt = CInt(dtr.getvalue(42))
What I want to know is, would this ever differ from:
myInt = dtr.getint32(42)
If there could be a difference, what would trigger it?
its possible to find out in a reader how much reading is left to do. My code will be below and i think it be fairly possible during a query that would be returning data but is it possible during a query designed to give data?
Public Function queryup(ByVal queryString As String, ByVal connection As MySqlConnection) Try Dim newQuery As String() = Split(queryString, ":") For Each Query In newQuery
When I am using an OleDBConnection to read a CSV, I notice something strange When the datasource (folder) of the CSV has a number in it, it will ALWAYS skip the header record, regardless of whether HDR=Yes or HDR=No
Dim conn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + input_path + ";Extended Properties='text;IMEX=1;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited;ImportMixedTypes=Text'") Dim command As New OleDb.OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM [" + input_csvFile + "]", conn) Dim da As New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(command) da.Fill(input).ToString()
I wanna make a time in and time out using a fingerprint device.. how can i start a coding for this in visual basic .net for attaching a device or accessing its database.
always had a problem getting my head around it. I don't have a very strong mental model of how the code flows. My main problem is i think i understand the syntax, but not really its application. Any links people found useful would be great.
Couple of questions. The code below doesn't make sense to me (written by someone else) the application is basically a csv reader, but manipulates the data. Public Sub entryType()
Are there any examples on how to implement a datareader? I have try copying the code from MSDN but;--"Dim reader as SQLDataReader = command. ExecuteReader()"Where it is placed? As a declariton at the beggining of a form? or as as VB resource?and then how those it bind a to a dataGridView? How can I loop through each rows once is bind to use the contents of the column/row?I can perform the above function easly inside of MS Access using VBA. I have gone through various books from WROX but none of them show a clear example or the code is obsolete.
