Pull Up Word Doc In Read ONLY Mode Not Toolbars Or Menus?
Aug 13, 2009
I'm using VB.net 2005. I want to open a Word doc from either the VB app. It can either shown on the form or in Word itself. Either way is fine. I tried using the WebBrowser control method, but it had the annoying "Open or Save" dialog that pops up and I don't want the users to get that. So now I am trying by opening up Word uses the sample code I found below. The problem is I want the users to ONLY be able to READ the doc. No Editing, Printing, or Saving. How Do I remove the Menubars, tool bars, and anything else that would allow them to print or save. Even if they tried to edit it would then do them no good without print or save.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
' Opens up doc in Word
Dim file_name As String
In VB.NET Tutorials I was following the tutorial Customize your toolbars and menus with a custom renderer and with the folowing code I get an error 'Declaration expected'
I am using the "Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Browser Control Type Library 1.0" control to view PDF's in my vb.net application. I want it to show just the PDF with no menus and toolbars.
I have used the following code: AxAcroPDF1.LoadFile("C:ShippingForm.pdf") AxAcroPDF1.src = "C:ShippingForm.pdf" AxAcroPDF1.setShowToolbar(False) AxAcroPDF1.setView("fitH") AxAcroPDF1.setLayoutMode("SinglePage") AxAcroPDF1.setShowScrollbars(False) AxAcroPDF1.Show()
I am still getting the Navigation Panel on the left side of the panel. Does anybody have information on which method would disable this or maybe a list of all the methods?
this is a small part of my senior project and I am heading in the right direction I just don't know where to go next. I already have code written so that "the potential" data can go to appropriate boomkarks on this custom word document.
Dim oWord As Word.Application Dim oDoc As Word.Document 'Start Word and open the document template. oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
I need to pull a random word from a text file in my resource folder (visual Studio 2010) and then have a user enter a letter to see if it is in the word. Yes, Hangman game. There is more, but right now I need to pull from that text file for a start. I know what I have is not even close to right under "Get Word Button", but I'm kind of confused about the process.
Public Class hangMan Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim word As New Random End Sub
I have to use the word list supplied and cannot use "streamreader" so, I need to pull a random word from text file in my resource folder (Visual Studio 2010) so user can guess letters for hangman game). I don't know if the code under "get word" button is right or not as far as pulling from the file. I would like to get that far!
how can i pull it into an array and if the textbox = any of the lines then execute event something like this
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If Me.textbox1.text = (textfile contents) then timer1.interval = 500
[code]....
im just not sure on how to initiate the calling of the text file into an array.or if i could call lines from a richtextbox and if textbox1.text = a line in the rtb then execute. I guess what ever would be simpler.
I'm trying to read a word document for the purpose of obtaining a word count, I realise Word has built in functionality for presenting a word count but I want to write a little app that will omit certain parts of the document from the word count.
So far I have tried this code to open the document but I am getting an error 'Word.Document cannot be found' and 'Microsoft.Office.Interop cannot be found'. I have added a reference to the Microsoft Office 12.0 Object Library under the COM tab. I have Office 2007 installed and I'm using VB2005.
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop Dim appWord As New Microsoft.Office.Core.Application Dim docWord As New Word.Document docWord = appWord.Documents.Open("c: est.doc")
I see, to my supprise, when I tried to installed the Access Database Engine drivers that you cannot run both 32 bit and 64 on the same machine (I have Office 64 bit installed). If SQL can do it? So I have this nice new 64 bit machine with 64 bit office and my hands are tied... Can't correct code in 64 bit mode, can't read Access databases in 32 bit mode. I just have a hard time with 64 bit being out since XP, that this it just not fixed yet. Humm the Behemoth that is now Microsoft. Want to use OLEDB?
I am trying to work with an access database. If this line pulls data from a dataset and puts it into a textbox: TextBox1.Text = Me.A_DataSet.a_Table.Rows(0).Item(0).ToString How would I pull the field name? For Example, in this database I have 3 fields:
Using fs As New FileStream("C: estsomefilename.ext", FileMode.Open)Using rdr As New BinaryReader(fs) fs.Seek(225, SeekOrigin.Begin)Dim b() As Byte = rdr.ReadBytes(32)Dim s As String = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(b) End Using End Using End Sub
I've attached a picture of the list view control that I am using. I've been fine until now, I want to save the entire line of items in the list view control (item_description, price) and dump it into the MySQL database to allow tracking of reciepts. The following code that I have saves the first column worth of information, but I cant figure out a way to save the second column (the price)
Dim li As ListViewItem For Each li In ListView1.Items CurItems = CurItems.ToString + li.Text + ", " Next
Oh right, and I'm making it comma seperated values so I can pull it up in a readable format again.
i want to read/write to some files.Specifically my application searches text files but i also want it to search binary files. The problem is : how will i know when the file is binary and not text ? Also how will i get the hexademical contents of a binary file ?[URL]

I've been working over the past year or so to make a very advanced web browser in visual basic, with features like speed dial, password remembering, popup handlers, phishing filters, advert blockers, etc. The final step of the way for me is to add in a toolbar feature. I don't want the source code - that would be asking far to much, but if someone has found any code which might point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. My code is allready around 15000 lines?
I'm wondering if there is any code that I could use in VB.net so it can determine the computer's startup mode (such as safe mode or safe mode with networking).
i am using visual studio 2005 on win 7 with office 2007. i have developed win application. i am using microsoft activex spreadsheet component in my program. so it automatically creates reference to AxInterop.OWC11.dll When i run program in debug mode (open program and click RUN in toolbar it works) but if i run directly .exe (go to bin elease doubleclick .exe) it give error at loading point of that component. It says "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory has been corrupted." An unhandled exception occurrs.
i am trying to make toolbars in VB that change their style according to the color scheme of your computer.if you don't know what i am talking about, look at the toolbars in IE, Firefox(with default theme), Notepad++ ect.i can use a boackround image for toolstrips, but they won't change for different OS's, i tried a toolbar control, but had the same theme problem and the buttons won't do anything?
I work for a shop that maintains a fairly new app. The app still has its fair share of bugs, with numerous tickets coming in daily. The error information we're given with those tickets is not as useful as it might be because the application was compiled in Release mode, which I read is smaller and faster (makes sense).
Are there any ramifications to deploying a .NET application to production that was compiled in Debug mode? I would expect it would be a bit slower, but I've read the difference is nominal. This would assure us that when we get errors on tickets we have line number associated with those errors and this, of course, makes debugging much easier. major red flags that would prevent you from doing this? I'm tasked with researching the possibility.
I want to use icon files that reside outside of Excel on my Excel toolbars for macro buttons I have created (I don't want to use the customizing function within Excel, but rather, icons that have already been created). In some prior life, I have done this and have some neat-looking icons on the Excel that resides on my desktop. I don't know how I did it, but I know it's doable!
Alternatively, if someone could tell me how to copy over the customized Excel setup, that would work too. I tried copying over my "Book 1" file, but got a message about macro security and digital certificates.
Hi. I have 2 toolbars and want to show only one at a time.
But when I swap them using .visible, it updates the form each time I switch one on/off, so it's all flickery and slow, and other controls resize to suit the indermediate state.
what I want to achive is to have a centralized control of my data-forms from my toolbars (toolstrip), like navigating (PREV-NEXT), SAVE, DELETE, CANCLE and so on instead of having it in every form. it worked beautifully in my VB6 projects. below are the codes i did in .NET and it don't seem to work and I guessed it about my use of late binding in .NET.
This is what I have done that don't seem to work. In my project module, frm is declared Public as form object Public frm as system.windows.form().form
Im my childforms i want as soon as the forms are load, activated or have focus, should instantiate or create the form object in my frm. [Code] while in my menu or main form (parent form) with toolstrip buttons, this actually where all individual forms are called. [Code]
and it's flagging an error there: frm.CloseForm is not a member of System.Windows.Forms().Form
and I must say here that I declared all the subs im calling in the childforms PUBLIC, and of-course frm being a late binding type may not have all the Public Method on it.
This is applicable to C# and VB.Net. I am writing a console application, but one aspect of it I want to make representable in a GUI (that being downloads running, with progress bars). is it possible to write a console mode application that can also have a form in it that can be called from code inside the console component?
I have a problem, this is what I want to do. Let's say I have a text document that contains:
Male = "True" Female = "False"
I want to make the code search for the line including Female, and then take the word in between the "", so I get false. Then I want to change that to True.
i want code for the following scenario my scenario is the word document must contain checkbox, and this word document should read to asp.net page, when user click the check box, the selected value should be stored into the database
