Trying To Write Application Which Extracts Text From Documents
Apr 26, 2010
I am proficient in Visual Basic, but I think I need to use .net and move with the times to achieve what I want.I am trying to write an application which extracts text from documents (.doc, .pdf, .xls etc. etc) using IFilter.I have found a very good example application in C# (Using IFilter in C# - CodeProject) which does what I want, but I am really struggling with C#.Does anybody know if there is a way to achieve the same results (i.e. extracting text from documents using IFilter) in VB?I have found a few examples on the web which do not seem to explain much - most examples I see are in C#.

OverviewThe fastest way to read or write Xml documents in a linear fashion is to use the XmlTextReader and XmlTextWriter classes in the System.Xml namespace. If read- or write-only forward-only access is too limiting, however, the System.Xml.XmlDocument class provides the ability to easily modify existing documents (adding, removing, or modifying elements and / or attributes) and leverages the powerful search capabilities of XPath.
Getting StartedThe XmlDocument can load Xml from a string in memory, from a URL, or from a file path. There are two methods that enable this functionality: Load and LoadXml. To load a document from either a URL or file path, use the Load method. Following is an example of using the LoadXml method to load an Xml document from memory. (NOTE: we will be working with this particular document throughout this article)

I have a form in VS2010, written in VB, and it has a subroutine calling for information out on the web using an httpwebrequest object. It takes a while for the response, and I would like the subroutine to write a message to the form (into a Label) for the user to see while waiting for the application to respond.
I tried writing the message with a Backgroundworker and then as a second thread. I got it to write the message, but it always seems to wait for the http response before writing the text. How do I write the text immediately, while waiting for the data?

I've been asked to get the page counts for documents stored as tif files. What I have now is looping through our third party software to open them and then get the page count. I can't stop the image from flashing and it is very slow. Does anyone know of a way to loop through them quickly and can the page counts (one image can have many documents)?

This code uncompresses 1/4 of the gzipped file. & I took it directely from the help file sample function codes.Any idea why is it doing this or how to fix it? gz file is attached below & it is not damaged.Edit: I read some stuff hire & there & found this: tutorial that says that MSDN doesn�t set the size of the array and uses a default size of 4086 bytes. But I have no clue how to implement it into my code.In this gz file there are only around 50 lines but there are files with over 1000 lines. So I tested & indeed this seems to be the problem, because if I increase the buffer(4096) more lines are extracted.

I have been tasked with a project that requires me to scan documents into our application. I was hoping a few of you had experience with coding them for your project and could point me in the right direction.
Here are my questions:
1. Do I have to choose a specific scanner such as Visioneer to code for or can I do I code for twain and assume all scanners that are twain drivers can run my software?
2. Should I write the code in VS2008 to obtain the scan or should I be using the software it comes with? I've found a few bits of code that seem to work but I'm not if I'll just be rewritting something I don't need to.I'm not looking for my work to be done for me, just a push in the right direction.

Public objword As New Word.Application
objword.Documents.Open(FileName:=ofilename)
^ Showing the declaration of the word document that i wish to edit.
Dim oDoc As Word.Document
objword.Visible = True
oDoc = objword.ActiveDocument
oDoc.Range.Text = codes(j, 1) & " " & codes(j, 2)
This gets the document and adds text into it, exactly what i want it to do. But it replaces the whole document. I just want it to add text at the start of the document. Not replace the whole document.

I am trying to manipulate files as part of a Document Management application that stores documents in a location on a Network Drives. But the My.Computer.FileSystem.Drives collection does not contain the Network Drives mapped on my machine. I have about half-a-dozen of these, but none of them seem to show up in the Drives collection and thus are not visible to the other FileSystem functionality I need to use for file management.
how to make sure the Drives collection contains all my drives? I am running VS2010 Premium edition on Windows 7 64-bit on a 64-bit Dell machine.

I need to find a Windows forms Text edit which can handle MS Word documents correctly.That is documents with Images, textboxes etc (.doc, .docx).I have tried Devexpress Xtrarichedit and TXText Control but when you load a MS Word Document (.doc, .docx) the document does not appear as it does in MS Word.That is Textboxes overlapping images are misaligned or have no transparent background option, so the white background of the textbox hides part ot the image.Has anybody had experience with 3rd party Document .net editors which mamage MS Word Documents correctly?

I've got a program which displays data in a listbox in five columns. All are separated using one or more ControlChars.Tab. I want to write these columns to a text file, however, when I do, my columns lose their alignment. I can change alignment so that it displays nicely in text file, but then it is off in list box. Is there a way to get what I see in my listbox to display the same way in a text file - maybe a different way of separating my columns (not using ControlChars.Tab)?

I am currently trying to write an application that uses more than one thuread, but I have little experience of this and the more I read about it, the more confusing it is.I currently have one main prog (StartupForm) that has 3 items defined as tool Strip items io the menu. Upon selecting each item, it runs the relevant Click subroutine.
What I am trying to do is within each subroutine, getting it to launch a additional form (option1Form, Option2Form & Option3Form all running under running under ew threads and independent from the original programme. Hence when the original programme is busy, the sub forms are running their own code quite happily. The only interaction I require is that the Main Programme (startupForm) Updates an array. Which the the new thread / form can read. Can this be doe some how Byref
