I'm wounder if it's possible to save both string and images to the same binary file? I know that you can save them independently with one file for strings and one for images. But i would like to save both in to the same file.
If it's not possible with binary files, when what's my options?
i need to read binary file and in this file found the string and replace it with other one and save the file afterwords. I found many example to read binary, but to find and replace is for me mistery.
View 3 RepliesHow do i convert string to raw binary and display save it in variable?
i can do it when i write the string to file :
Dim data As Byte() = Encoding.GetEncoding(862).GetBytes("שלום")
Using writer As New StreamWriter("C:lasttest.txt", False, Encoding.GetEncoding(862))

I'm trying to save a binary file stored in a SQL database with a SaveDialog, the function RetrieveFile retrieves the specified file from the database as a Byte array, here's what I have so far:
Private Shared Function RetrieveFile(ByVal filename As String) As Byte()
Dim connection As New SqlConnection("Data Source=SERVERSQL2008;Initial Catalog=NorthPole;Integrated Security=True")
Dim command As New SqlCommand("SELECT pcfFile FROM Items WHERE pcfFileName=@Filename", connection)
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Filename", filename)
connection.Open()
[Code] .....
Files are saved as "SqlDbType.VarBinary" within the database.
I get: "Index was outside the bounds of the array." on:
Dim retrievedBytes As Long = reader.GetBytes(1, startIndex, buffer, 0, ChunkSize)
The MemoryStream appears to not be retrieving the data yet the SQL syntax is correct.

I'm designing a very simple program that will need to save both data and photos to a cd but my code refuses to let me do it. Here is what I have:
FileOpen(1, "E:FileWithData.dat", OpenMode.Binary)

I keep getting an incorrect function at FileOpen
I saw some methds which take numerous lines of code but I like to keep my code very simple so I can easily tell what it does.
I want to save some data to a binary file, and read it later, as in several strings of data.
My objective:
To save the following things...
1. 3 different strings of data, and be able to easily read them later.
I have a device with upon serial communication, it send the data as HEX values, (e.g., C020042ABD0F91A103E400F929EBC). I use the following code to get data from the serial port.
Dim fStream As New FileStream(sFileName, FileMode.CreateNew) ' creates new file
Dim bw As New BinaryWriter(fStream)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1500)
ComTd.Read(data, 1, bCount)
Dim bCount As Integer = 4119 ' it is the size of the chunk not block size
Dim data(bCount) As Byte

If we can save 2 images i.e 2 different picture boxes in the same file?
View 8 RepliesI have created a simple drawing program in vb 2010 and am trying to add the ability to create multiple images and put them in a slide show type thing similar to powerpoint. The only problem is that I do not know how to save multiple images to a file and open it back up again.For example:If I have created 5 images, I want all five to save to one file, and be reopened as one file but 5 different images.
View 8 RepliesI want to write a string into a binary file.The length of the string is 22 position 1036
Write name in that chain, the length of the name varies but is always between a length of 22.
As I can fill the remaining length of the string with blank spaces?
The empty spaces in hex is "00"
Is there a method like ebBrowser1.Document.Image(0).SaveImageToFile("C:Image.jpg") ?
I'm trying to make an application that downloads all the images from a photo album on the web. The user will navigate to the first image in the gallery and the program should download all images in full resolution automatically.
I have a working version now, but it is not satisfactory. Here is a simplified version of the code I use now for saving the images:
Private Sub startDownloading Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile(WebBrowser1.Document.Images(0).GetAttribute("src"), "C:image.jpg")
End Sub
This way, after the page with the image has fully loaded, it downloads the image using the Network.DownloadFile-method. So, it download the same file twice. But these files are big and websites are slow. Which makes the whole operation take about twice as long as it has to.
Is there a way to directly save the image-file that has already loaded in the WebBrowser-control, without having to download the image again?
I want to search for a String Pattern in a Binary File (Binary File is not 100% plain text). Here is the pattern:

What are the setps for convert since a String to a File?
someone told me i need convert it to array byte, but i dont know how to convert a String to a array byte... what are the best steps?
this code return me a table
Public Function ConseguirCatalogo() As DataTable

End Function

now what are the next setp for convert it finally to a file? ( it is a *.jar)
I have a binary file. If I look at it with a hex editor, the first values are:208, 207, 17, 224, 161, 177, 26, 225, 0, 0, 0, ... etc.It has a length of 330240 bytes I have tried to open it and read it into a string so I can manipulate it and write it back. No matter what I use, I either don't get the correct number of bytes or the values in the string are incorrect. The most common error results in the first values being: 63, 63, 17, 63, 63, 26, 0, 0, 0 .... etc.It is interesting that it appears that any value > 63 becomes 63.
I get the 2nd values by a simple loop:
For lnx = 0 To 99
Debug.Write(Asc(line.Substring(lnx, 1)))
Next
I have tried a whole number of ways to read in the file, including filestream, My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText, File.io.readAllLines, etc.All either give me a string length of about 324000 (not sure why) or, if they do, don't have the correct values. Yes, I have tried various encoding options.
I need to find a string (sort of like: "D" & Chr(0) + "L" & Chr(0) + "S" & Chr(0)... ) so I can then replace that portion of the string with a new value, then write out the file.I use the ".indexOf" to find the data in the string.Why can't I load the file into a string? Or, do you know of an easy way to find some text (similar to above) in a file and then replace the next x number of bytes with a new value and close the file?
How could i read a string into a binary file Encoding.UTF8.(the string has a length of 25 bytes)
Using fs As New FileStream (OpenFileDialog1.FileName, FileMode.Open)

View 3 RepliesI was thinking to make an app to save images [or download images] to local hard disk. But to keep it easy, I want this app to create a small picturebox on form to show the thumbnail of downloaded image. Lets say a 5 pictureboxes has to be added with the thumbnails to show the recent downloads. A user can save the location where he wants to save the files on hard disk. A listbox or a dropdown menu will help in categorizing the images, like image1 in friends section, image2 in family section, image3 in others, etc... When the program restarts all the latest 5 thumbnails has to be loaded in pictureboxes and the directory that was chosen. Finally, a button that shows the downloaded images into original image file size one by one or a slide show. Is it possible to make such program?

View 9 RepliesI have been googling this and have not come along a working solution for an entire day. I don't know anything about binary data types (as I've never knowingly used them) and I'm trying to write a binary value that I see in the registry, to the registry. Now, all I see is the following [shown below]... and if I try to pass that as a string to the RegSetValueEx in the WinAPI and of course it errors out...
I do not know what 'numbers' I need to pass into the lpData As Any, argument of RegSetValueEx (i tried a bit array) in order for it to come out as the following [shown below] in the regedit. I really have no idea, and my tests to place random numbers in the bit array just produce corresponding random "figures" as visible in regedit that I do not understand how to 'tie' them together logically. here is the culprit!

I'd like to convert a string which contains a decimal number into string that contains the binary value, the octal and the hexadecimal value of that decimal number.Afterwards I also like to convert a string containing a binary, octal and hexd. number into a decimal string.Basically I'm looking for the functions:
dec2bin
dec2oct
dec2hex
bin2dec
oct2dec
hex2dec
I'd not prefer to rewrite a function, I'm sure the framework must have these functions already.
