I have a field that is storing a text file in my database after it was converted to binary. My question is how do you read that binary file from the database, convert it back to text, and then apply it to textbox1.text? Of course, I already checked

View 8 RepliesA text file exists on my server machine which is constantly being updated (about once about 5 seconds). On my web page, I'd like a div to display this file live using jQuery inside MVC.
I have the jQuery timer working already, but the file isn't displaying. My plan was to get the jQuery to load a Controller Action every 5 seconds and have this action return a FilePathResult.
The script:
$(function () {
var streamer = $("div.wrapper div.streamer");
//===
[Code]....
LiveStreamPath contains the path to the text file. I was thinking of creating a StreamReader in the Action instead. What sorts of implementations can I use to get this file to stream?
Does anybody know how to import a certain line from a text file into a label in vb 2008? I'm using the Imports System.IO property.I have a custom text file and i want to bring only a certain line from it back to my vb program. How do i code this?
View 1 Repliesi want some work with swf. the steps are: all these things i will do with desktop application
1) break the swf file in small parts and store in any database or put these parts on physical path but in that case all swf part should be encrypted so nobody run these files with click.
2) run that parts from memory ( any of these part is not run with mouse double click ) with vb.net application
i read delphi can do the streaming of swf. so can it possible with .net
I'm trying to make a program in vb 2008 that is like a Quiz that reads questions from a different file and displays them in a label in the program. The program also reads 4 multiple choice into radio buttons. There is a next button that switches the answers and questions (reads them from a file) and displays them onto a label.
View 5 RepliesI have this problem in VB.NET in c#, I have this project where I need to run a batch file, which is easy enough. But my problem is I need to display everything that shows up on the batch file, in the cmd window, in a textbox, now, this code opens the file no problem:
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.EnableRaisingEvents = false
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\Users\jwoow\Desktop\Server\run.bat";
proc.Start().ToString();
but it doesn't move the code over to the textbox, this code transfers the last displayed line, but not the entire thing of the batch file and it also closes the cmd window, i need it to stay open:
Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
[code]....
the batch file is for a server, it displays the amt of users on it (updates ever 2 minutes) and shows different events taken by the users. so it is constantly updating.
I have following code:
Dim fs As FileStream
fs = New FileStream(path, FileMode.Create)
Dim sw As StreamWriter
sw = New StreamWriter(os)
sw.Write(something)
sw.Flush()
Is this a correct way to do this? Do i need to put in some checks to see if file exists?
I have a 'next' button which changes the questions when clicked. How do i make the questions keep changing to another question from a file with only 1 button when clicked and also display it on a label with 4 radio buttons with answers in vb. I always get an error " Cannot read from a closed text file "

View 3 RepliesI need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
Here's what I know:
1. how to open a new file
2. how to specify the record length
3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?
I want to take more than one number separated by one space from txtDec textbox and display their binary form again separated by one space in txtBin textbox.
My code below ---
Private Sub DecToBin()
Dim i As Integer = txtDec.Text
Dim binary As String = Convert.ToString(i, 2).PadLeft(8, "0"c)
txtBin.Text = binary
End Sub
I'm supposed to convert the string in one textbox to binary, and display it as binary, in another textbox. I can make this part work, but when I want to convert it from binary and back to text, it all goes bananas.Here's the code I'm using for the conversion:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs
) Handles Button1.Click

I am currently sending data via a serial port to an AVR microcontroller. I've tried searching the forums here first but haven't found any posts that specifically deal with what I'm trying to do. Here's some additional information that might help before proceeding:
Sendbox = textbox
ReceiveBox = listbox
ReceiveChk = checkbox
I currently have it setup so I enter hex data in Sendbox, click the button, it sends the data to the AVR micro via the serial port, which gets repeated back through the serial port and receives the hex data in the ReceiveBox. I want to be able to setup something similar so I am able to input data into a textbox as binary and have it sent to the AVR that way.
I realize it will send the same data whether I enter it in hex or binary form. I just want the option of being able to send it in either form.
Below is my code.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SendButton.Click
SerialPort1.Open()

View 4 RepliesI've gone through about 16 hours and two packs of cigarettes trying to figure this out. First a little background. I was using 6.0 up until 2004 when I went to prison. I'm out now, and trying to relearn the trade, using VS 2005. I'm currently porting some 6.0 code from another project, SpyCast Webcam Studio, into VB 8.0. It's disheartening, to say the least. None of the old built-in subs/functions work anymore, so I have to scour the forums to relearn each and every function.The section I'm doing now takes a snapshot from the webcam (Video API --> PictureBox --> Save as Jpeg), then upens the file to upload it to the server via HTTP POST. I've been using this code in SpyCast for years with no trouble, but I spent many hours trying to piece together the right code to open the binary file to read its contents. I pieced together two methods I found around the forums, one using FileStream() though the code I found wasn't for binary files, even though it said it was, so that code doesn't really work. Method two uses Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileOpen() and works better.
Here's the kicker. By the time I run through the rest of the rigamarole of uploading the file, by the time I read it on the webserver, it's *slightly* corrupted. It's a valid Jpeg, no errors, but the picture looks like when I use to watch the Playboy Channel when I was a kid scrambled with weird colors and whatnot. [code] Each "chunk" is basically one "line" of the file. It looks like a single LineInput() return is the text between two carriage returns. Am I correct? I tested this with a flat text file, and it looks true. However, That one input line returns the text or data with the carriage returns *stripped*! ***?!? =( Fine, I have no problem adding my own vbCrLf to each LineInput(), if I were opening text. but this's binary. A character could be Chr(10) or Chr(13), both of which are removed from the original file contents.So I could very well need to use something other than LineInput(), but I haven't found any other examples on the web using this method.
I have a string with Binarydata that is 64bit. I want to store this data into SQlServer database and the column is varbinary(Max).When I pass the string I am getting an error saying string cannot be converted into varbinary.

View 1 RepliesI have a project in VB2010 it is well connected to the database (DB.accdb) access2007. I'm trying to save the photo into the database table using Binary method. I am successfully able to (Save, Search). my problem is in the EDIT button : I'm supposed to search first to return\display the info+Photo on the form controls (Textbox + PictureBox), now i want to do EDIT, i use sql string : SqlStr = "Update MyTable Set Field1 = '" & Text1.Text & "', PhotoOle = [b]????[/b]"
I'm not able to convert the PictureBox That contains the returned photo to Byes() using : ImageBytes = Ctype(PictureBox1.Image, Byte()) .... not working . -Or- ImageBytes = Ctype(DaraRead!PhotoOle, Byte()) .... not working either.
What do you think what is faster:
1. writing 1000 records in a binary file on a server? or
2. passing the same 1000 records in a database on a server?
and
1. search a specific record in a binary file? or
2. search the same specific record in a database file?
however, I am stuck at BinaryReader.actually this is what i am trying to acheive through VB.NET.say for the following file type :
JPG file = FF D8 FF E0
BMP file = 42 4D BE 4E
PNG file = 89 50 4E 47
GIF file = 47 49 46 38
the above are the 4-byte headers in Hex(raw) I need to read these headers of any given file using OpenFileDialog using Button1_click event,on selection of any given file(*.* filters ON)it should use the BinaryReader and look for only 4-bytes starting from offset 0, and it should not go to EOF marker (-1).and have a variable to hold this 4-byte header value, to run this in a database table which will check the same header value in the table and would display the corresponding extension of the file. from the table.
I can do this using case, if then...etc.however, I have to do it using Database and also i need to check for testing purpose to use MsgBox() to display this variable which is holding the 4-byte header.however, the MsgBox doesnt allow anything other than String.
PS: I tried studying the methods like:
FileOpen/Seek/Peek/ReadBytes().
but still not sure how to get them work.
I need to save a datatable to a binary file , in binary format , in order to make the process fast because the datatable may contain up ten millions rows. So , XML is not favorable because it makes the file large sized , and the process will be slow.
I managed to save the datatable to a binary file , and it works fine , but the problem when I try to add new rows to the existing binary file (using a datatable with the same schema , but different rows data) , it copies the schema of the datatable to the binary file, making it very large.
