Mimicking Does A Simple Calculation Where It Takes Key And Plain Text Characters
Jan 31, 2011
I am trying to mimic an encryption application. The application I am mimicking does a simple calculation where it takes the key and the plain text characters 7 bit ascii code and xor's them together. If the two spots in the code are = then it returns a 0 if it is ~ then it returns a 1. I have tried several code snippets for xor and none of them produce the results I want. I have only taken a couple programming classes so I get lost easy. This is what I have so far. My goal is to decrypt something encrypted by the program I am replicating using a password generator to come up with the key.I already have the binary for the encrypted text from the program I am copying. So I need to convert the key into the matching binary format. I used this snippet for that. [code] When I run this as is I get a much longer result than I should. If I use an "a" as my key and "00000000" as my cipher bi the result is "0011000000110000001100000011000000110000001100000011000000110000" when it should be "01100001".

I have a program written in VB.NET and I have a textbox for the RFID tag (which is in ASCII format) and then convert it to a simple text format to be saved to my database. How can I convert ASCII to plain text to save to my database?

I am not recieving any errors, but the program is not doing what I had expected. I wish to make a program that randomly takes characters (well, not completely randomly. I used the table of letter frequency from wikipedia and included that data in my program by figuring out the max for the random numbers from the percentages in the wikipedia chart.) and adds them to a long list of characters ands saves the file every 5 minutes. I have calculated the timer interval so that the number of miliseconds shown is equal to 5 minutes. I am getting the textwindow, and it is showing (rather rapidly, as I need it to be) a long random list of characters (including spaces). The problems are (A) I am having difficulty saving the text as a file. You'll find the code that is supposed to do that at the bottom. The other problem I am having is once so many characters are added, the ones at the top start disappearing. I would scroll to the top, and each time I did so the letters at the top had changed (this is all during the same test), but I need all characters to be stored when the file saves. Granted, I haven't actually seen one of the saved files as I have not figured out how to make that work. One other thing, not sure if it's important, I haven't run a published version yet. I've only been running the debug builds. Does that affect how it handles actions with files?

To have a function that takes the average (which is calculated by a different function) say for example the average is 6, now the function is to take the number 6 and get the variance from six to another number lets say its 12 so this will return a calculation of 50% variance. now here comes the issue, i have it calculating the variance how ever lets say that there is a score that is 0, how can i make it calculate the variance without taking count for that 0? i guess you can say i need it to "skip" if its a 0.

I'm trying to use VB.NET to process a very large plain text file (2 GB). It is a database and has a field delimiter of SOH and a record delimiter of STX.
I want to separate the fields and records of the file.
I would normally read each line of a text file and then use the split function to separate out the fields. I can't use this approach as there isn't always a delimiter on every line.
Is there any way to read a file until STX is found (rather than one line at a time)?

I have a desktop application displaying text in a read only RichTextbox component. Some words in the text needs to be highlighted depending on a text analyze that was previously executed.Now I need to create a web version of this application.I know there's a couple of Rich Text Editors available but I would like to know if there's a library or a simple way to generate an properly tagged HTML string from a plain text and a list of word to highlight?

I have a program, that allows writers to save there quotes. The quotes are saved in a xml file. Everything works as it should but when I load a saved quote it still comes up in xml format. I need to load a saved quote in a plain text format and I also want to be able to give the output file print functionality. I was thinking of making the output file a html file which opens up in a web browser, this of course already has print functionality, is this at all possible.

I'm writing a replacement for an old library we use at the office to communicate with a rather clumsy and old custom-made C++ framework that takes requests via sockets in order to communicate with a bunch of other systems. The problem is that it will only take plain text messages containing a string which must be formatted in a very specific way.The problem I'm facing is that I haven't found so far a way of sending plain text through the socket. The Send method of the socket will only take byte arrays, and while the listening point receives the data, it gets there completely scrambled, and there's no way I can mess with that in order to convert the byte array back to plain text. I need to be able to send plain text, not byte arrays.[code]

I am using Visual Studio 2008 Pro to create a web application in Visual Basic. This app takes the information filled in by a user and then sends it to various people. Some of these people get the email in HTML, the rest in plain text. However, whenever I use the code below to send the plain text email, when the email arrives in my Outlook 2010 Inbox it is completely blank. If I leave the code alone and change only .IsBodyHTML from False to True, it works (it sends the email formatted for HTML).[code]Also, if I create an entirely new web app, using only this code, it sends the email correctly as plain text.

I'm sort of new to VB and have to use it for my Software Design & Development Major Project.I'm making a blackJack game, and i the names of all users in a file called "CurrentUserNames.txt".I'm struggling to get VB to read this file (items are line by line not separated by a comma or something) and then save it into an array called CurrentUsers(). This array is then displayed in a listbox called "lstAllUsers".I can get VB to read the file and put the FIRST item in the file into the FIRST line of the list box, or i can get VB to put ALL the items in the file into the listbox, separated by the little [] squares when the program runs e.g listbox, line 1 says - "Current [][] Names".[code]

Just like the notepad, it will not allow you to paste any picture in it, and it will convert all formatted text to plain text. It will not change the content of the clipboard, it just like a filter... Is there any way to do it in VB.NET?My program screenshot:
I had a solution in my brain but I think it is not the best... The solution is reformat the text with
richtextbox1.font=myfont after any time I pasted, but it still can paste the other thing like object and picture..

I'm developing an application that should run on a 'kind of' mobile device. It's not exactly a mobile device (hence I'm not developing in the mobile framework, just winforms), but I can't use various Forms either.
Right now I am working on a proof of concept, and I simulated the mobile device simply with a UserControl that has a fixed size. Everything needs to happen on that UserControl, and I cannot display any other forms.
However, I now need a 'Dialog Form' to let the user enter some data (mainly text but it doesn't really matter). What I'm doing now is simply showing a Panel with a TextBox, OK button and Cancel button. I bring that panel to the front, hiding the rest of the application, when required. The different Panels (there's also one for a CheckBox, ComboBox, and the main application is also on a Panel) are all on a 'PanelContainer' UserControl I made, and I can switch panels simply by specifying their 'key' (a string such as "TEXT", "CHECK", "COMBO" etc). So I can display the textbox panel by simply doing
panelContainer1.SelectedKey = "TEXT" That brings the textbox panel to the front.
What I want now is that I can 'show' the panel as if it were a Dialog form. That means that the code 'waits' until the user has entered his text and either clicked OK or Cancel. Then I could use it like this
' Show the panel here
Dim result As DialogResult = panelContainer1.Panels("TEXT").ShowDialog()
' and immediately use the result (the code won't come here until the user has selected ok or cancel)

I'm making a custom control suited for handling passwords. I have created a control that inherits from a text box and I have implemented a lot of things so far. But what i want to do now is create a system so that when a user types It will display his last character typed for a X amount of time.Is there a way to turn only selected characters into password characters and still be able to get the password text from the Text property ?

Is there any Windows API Routine to read something like that?Or could you point me an URL where something is implemented?I don't want a procedure to read the file line by line and comparing them with Line Input because blank spaces, empty lines and comments starting with " // " may appear too, and I don't want to take them into account, but also I need to save changes to the file, but only to the modified section, without having to read the whole file, and re-write it completely.
Binary access can't work, because I don't know what's the size of each "section", since the number of elements into it can change.
I need something like the "ReadINI" Windows API Procedure, but allowing me to read the "[XXX]" sections headers, and also the "<XXX>" file title header.

I need to be able to display 60 * x. X is going to be the time between hitting a Stat button and a Stop button in seconds. I need this to be shown until it is stopped. So i was thinking something like txtBox1.text = 60*time, but I do not know if that is correct and I do not know how to get that time. Also I am not sure how to continuously update the text box.

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.
