SAPI Text To Speech "locks Up" Application While Speaking A Message
May 20, 2010I'm using VB 2010, and am trying to add a simple TTS function to my program. I'm able to create a voice object, and get it to speak (Voice.Speak("whatever") with no difficulty.
The problem I'm having is that while the "whatever" is actually being spoken, the program doesn't seem to respond to input. The input does show up once the audio is through, but I really need to be able to detect some input (say, a mouse or button click) during a message and respond immediately, perhaps even stopping the audio.
Dragon Naturally Speaking And Visual Basic .Net?
Jun 27, 2011You can use Dragon Naturally Speaking with Microsoft Access databases and I was wondering if you can do the same with Visual Basic .Net. I think Access has this as a feature, that it interacts with Dragon somehow, not just accepting input. Correct me if I am wrong. I'd like to know if Visual Basic .Net supports this too. I have been searching on the net and haven't found anything.

View 6 RepliesMulti-user Application - Updating All Clients When A User Updates Data (push Vs Pull)?
Aug 26, 2009I am designing a fairly small application to manage a waiting area for a clinical department. There will be a receptionist who books appointments and updates exisiting appointments to say that a patient has "Arrived". In seperate rooms will be nurses who call patients who have "Arrived" and update the appointment as "In Session" and finally as "Discharged". The appointments are viewed in a flexgrid with nurses across the top and time down the left, patient names are displayed at the relevant times and the cells are shaded a colour to represent the current appointment status ("Booked", "Arrived", "In Session" and "Discharged").
I am using SQL Server as the back-end and Visual Basic 6 (I know) as my front-end.I have been told that there will be 2 or 3 nurses plus the receptionist logged in to the system but I would like to cater for growth.My question is what is the best mechanism to use in order to reflect the status change made by one user on the screens of the other users currently logged in?
I have been thinking about using a timer to refresh the data at a set interval but I do not want to keep hitting the server excessively (although what is considered excessive? we would be talking about a call for data every 60 secs per user). Plus the server could be serving data for many other applications so this is another consideration.Alternatively I have been thinking about sending some kind of message via Winsock to the other users notifying them of data changes as they happen. I don't have a lot of experience with this and am concerned about clients not receiving messages and users seeing old data. It also seems strange to me that once the days appointments have been retrieved from the database that "in theory" a client could go the whole day without having to query the database again to pick up changes - kind of scary.Some information on the data:We would probably be looking at around 100 appointments per day We capture patient name, date of birth, date and time of appointment and appointment status.What is the standard approach / best practice for this kind of scenario?

View 16 RepliesGet The WindowsIdentity Object For Logged-on User In An Application Running As Another User?
Jul 18, 2011I'm running an application under an account that is not the account logged-on to the PC.
Within the application I need check if the logged-on user is a member of the Administrators group. Below is the code I'm using. From what I've read, WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent() should return an object associated with the logged-on user. It doesn't, it returns the same information as the call to System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal. Which is the information associated to the ID running the application, not the logged-on user.

Application For User - Run As The User And Preserve Individual Settings

View 8 RepliesApplication Can Only Be Installed On A User By User Basis?
Jan 6, 2010I have a few programs published via ClickOnce. These are highly specialized programs, and are only used by a relative handful of people, but the set of users is likely to change, and is spread over a fairly wide geographical area. The major advantage of ClickOnce....ok, for me, the ONLY advantage of ClickOnce, is that I can create updates and have them (mostly) installed when the end user runs the program. Over the brief time that I have used it, I have encountered these aggravations regarding ClickOnce:
1) The application can only be installed on a user by user basis (it can't be installed for all users at once). I understand why this is done for a general solution like ClickOnce, but it is certainly an aggravation.
2) Updates don't always appear to happen. Usually, the updates do happen when a person starts the program, but a fair number of times, the update isn't noticed, or recognized, or something. This causes the user to continue with the old version, which makes them think that I didn't fix the bug they had, which causes them to give me a raft of excrement, which results in me flipping them the bird. Much hilarity ensues (fortunately, I'm friendly with my entire user group, so this is a fairly accurate acconting of the sequence of events, except that I just laugh at them rather than replying in sign language).
3) Certificates expire in a year. Certificates are a great thing...for some situations. In my case, an alternative seems like it might be better.
4) Some settings in the manifest are so doggone hard to fix that I've nearly given up. I changed the URL that ClickOnce was supposed to go to for updates, and found it impossible to change the program to find the new location. It had to be there somewhere, and I found several candidates, but never could find the critical one.
Because of these issues, I have been tempted to write my own replacement. There are a few issues that I'd like some commentary on. For one thing, security is an issue that is hard to pin down. None of the data I am dealing with is worth a second thought. No cracking of that data would harm anybody or any thing. However, my first thought would be to have people install an app that would go to a web service to check for the existence of an updated version. If one was available, then the existing program files would be overwritten by the new files. If one was not available, then no overwrites would take place. Lastly, if the service couldn't connect, then no overwrites would take place (of course). If the files were compressed for transport, it would be kind of difficult to intercept and inject a different program into the transport stream, so the only weakness that I can see would be if somebody hacked the server that held the new version, and replaced it with something else. What am I missing here?Also, has anybody done anything like this, and if so, what else am I overlooking?

View 3 RepliesApplication :: Display A Message To The User Whilst The Application Is Starting Up?
Nov 4, 2010I have recently created an application where a lot of data is loaded into objects when the application starts up, and other data as it is required. For example if the user requests the catalogue page then it will load all the top level category data into objects of type Category. This will then stay there to be used by other users (who will therefore not have to load this data into objects) and can be altered by admin if they happen to login during the same application instance. I know this is not the most efficient solution, as pointed out below, but it works and the page load, at the moment, is not too long. It is very quick if most of the required data is already loaded into objects. It is also tailored to the business' needs - unlike other techniques such as Linq-to-SQL.
View 1 Replies.net - Application Settings Scope - User Vs Application?
Apr 13, 2012If I create a user level application setting and bind it to a text box on a form, then type something in the textbox, the value is automatically saved and when the application is launched again the value appears in the textbox. This doesn't happen when I scope the setting as application.
Why are application scoped settings not saved automatically like user scoped settings are?
If this is by design, how can I manually save these settings and load them at runtime?

Make Multi User Application?
Mar 10, 2009I have finished coding a VB.Net application that has connection to SQL Express 2008 database. My question is, what steps do I have to take to make this a multi user application.
FYI:There are 3 tables in the database of which two tables contain data to be viewed by the user and one table is to insert records by the user. The former two tables will be edited by the administrator only. So there is no issue of concurrency. But the one table that is used to insert records by all users has to be dealt with.
Allow The User To Send A Message To An Application?
Dec 3, 2009So im trying to allow the user to send a message to an application on a server telling it to do different things. So i build the client and the server side applications and tested them on my computer and another computer here. Everything worked great, just like i wanted it to.
When I moved the server application to the actual server and tried connection via the internet, it did not work. I got the error message: An error has occured : A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond IPADDRESS:PORT
Well then I realized chances are a VPN connection to my server and using my servers name instead of my servers IPADDRESS would fix this problem, which it did.
I dont want to require the user to have to create a VPN connection, i dont really care reather they use the IPaddress or not, although if theres a fix for that too it would be great. Heres my code: (I have marked where the error occured)
''Client
