View 1 RepliesI am trying to use the eID SDK (for using the belgian ID-card) in VB. It's supported but I can't get it to work. I have never worked with sdk's before. I did manage to get it to work in c++ in console but I really need it in visual basic. Also the VB examples that come with the sdk are made in an older version of visual studio and when my version tries to convert them they don't work. I want to use the sdk to see when a card is inserted into the reader and to read out the data. (both i got to work in c++ console).

From few days I am doing efforts to read web pages using webbrowser control in my desktop application. But it is very slower than my expectations(because I want to read lots of pages in minutes and browser control reads almost one page in 5 to 10 seconds), what I need is to read two or three tags written in web page.
So finally I decided to use something, which can give me only source code of page. I think StreamReader will help me to read it. I am not sure if it is flaxible with my purpose, or something else is there which can give me only html source code of web page.
I have written this code to read html code, but it gives error.

I am using Visual Studio 2005. I am using a data reader to read an Excel spreadsheet and want to update a SQL Express table. The datatypes in this table mimic a software application I will eventually be passing data to and are listed in the comments in my code. No matter what I do or change, this will not run. I even populated my spreadsheet with zeros and this will not run. I have found many suggestions on the web and tried changing things but nothing seems to work. I also don't know specifically which variable is causing the error or the proper way to make sure there are no blanks in this spreadsheet.The error says "conversion from string "" to 'Double' is not valid Here is my code:
Public Sub btnUpload_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnUpload.Click
'Connect to the Excel spreadsheet
Dim xConnStr As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=" & txtFileName.Text & ";" & _

View 2 RepliesI am using XMLReader to look thru and XML file that I have. While I have been able to play around with it and get it to pull some of the information I want, I am wondering what commands to use to do what I really want.For example, I really just want one line of information in the XML File. it uses tags for the name of a string that follows it, heres an example,Serial Number1234567890...this format is used for other parameters also, but I just need the actual string of serial numbers. Is there a way to tell the reader to search for "Serial Number" and then read back the next line, which corresponds to what I want.Just so you know I have been using the reader.name command to find string tags which is great, but there are 4 in the file im looking at, I just need the one that says "Serial Number" as its content.
