View 1 RepliesI'm writing a program which gets the time and date from forums which only show "x hours ago" on the main thread list.What I do is get a list of threads, open their print version and fetch the info.I'm currently using a single webbrowser, because there's no control array anymore. This makes the proccess very slow.Is there a way to open all the threads' print versions simultaneously?(BTW, I'm using DOM functions like GetElementsByTag, so I'll need to get the page's "Document" object.)
View 8 RepliesI have three listboxes with vertical scroll bars. I'd like it so that when one is scrolled, so are the others. However, I can't seem to find a "scroll" event. I tried this:
vb.net
Public Scrolling As Boolean
Private Sub ListBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListBox1.MouseDown
If e.Button = MouseButtons.Left Then

It works when you click and drag on the listbox area where the items are, but not when you click on the scroll bar!

I'm just using the default SQL Server Express in my vb 2008 express edition as my database server for my database operation.

I tried to start using VB 2010 Express with a program I originally developed with VB 2005 Express that I moved to VB 2008 Express successfully a couple years ago. It uses a database file (*.mdf) that is on the computer ( not out on a server). When attempt to run the program in debug mode, I get the following error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsTomMy DocumentsQuizzing StuffQuestion Database 2010QuizQuest ionGameQuizQuestionGameinReleaseQuizQuestionDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
I first made a copy of the entire project folder that was working in VB 2008 Express and gave it a different name. In VB2010 I opened the project in the copied folder and it said it successfully converted the project. I am able to open the Data Source inthe Designer and see the database structure as I expect. I think the project is still using SQL Server 2005 Express (because it is what is checked in the list of prerequisites on the Publish tab).
Note, I have programmed off and on for many years, but fairly new to using databases and SQL Server.
Here is the scoop: I am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to re write a VB6 program using MS Access, many years ago, using VB 2010 express and SQL server 2008 R2 Express. I have a database with several tables, which I created using the designer. I am able to connect to the database and select data and display it in textboxes etc in vb code. What I have not been able to in code is to INSERT rows DELETE rows or UPDATE any data in the tables. I can do any of these operations using the Query Designer, but I want to do it in code. I can post some code if necessiary, but I thought it might just be some property that I had not set in the designer.

View 1 Replies[code] 'The description for the state.getbuttons() is:'Public Function GetButtons() as Byte (is a array of buttons).'The high-order bit of the Byte is set if the corresponding button is down, 'and clear if the button is up or does not exist.This code is used to show if certain buttons of a GamePad/joystick are pressed using the DirectInput method (DirectX SDK).This code shows how many buttons are pressed simultaneously. So 00 for zero and 00 01 if two buttons are pressed. I would like to know what button exactly is pressed (some kind of unique code for each button). But I can't get it done.
1. Is there a way so show all the bits inside the state.getbuttons()? (maybe there is a unique combination for each button).
2. What does &H80 mean?
I have referred to the following question at: Using foreach loop to iterate through two lists. My question is this, with regards to the chosen answer: Can the o.DoSomething be a comparison? As in:
For Each a in ListA.Concat(ListB)
If(a from ListA=a from ListB) Then
Do Something here
End If
Next
I'm using VB.Net and would like to know how I can do what I have shown here. That would basically be to iterate through a joined list separately/independently.

View 13 RepliesI want to expand it a little bit and add a second timer that runs parallel to the first timer, but is not affected in any way shape or form by the first timer.
Ive tried nesting the second loop in the first loop but the second loop takes 3 seconds to complete (I use thread.sleep(3000)), so I found that it froze the first loop till the second loop finishes. I was reading about system threading (System.Timers.Timer) and it seems like that is the route I want to go.
I wrote this quick as an example:

I cant use the timer1 to set off the second round of events because of the thread.sleep. I was hoping that the code above puts the second thread to sleep while the windows.form.timer continues on ticking every 1000 ms

Not wanting to hijack 45minutes thread, I thought I might spawn a thread of my own based on his question.
PlausiblyDamp was kind enough to provide some generic code, which I have modified and attached.
I have made a few alterations mostly around removing random objects, as the game in question (Space Invaders) has a set amount of aliens and set starting positions.
As a start I have limited the UpdatedPostion to horizontal movement as the aliens only go side to side unless they hit an edge.[code]...
