View 1 RepliesI am reading data from an API feed and saving the chunks into files. When the files reach 10 MB I start a new file and write to that file. What happens now is that an entry (<entry></entry>) can get cut off at the end of a file and continues into the new file. I try and reconstruct the files by taking the last entry and combining it with the first entry of the next file but this is tedious and was wondering for better suggestion on handling the data transmission and file creation.
The data stream is of variable sizes and where one request can return 60 MB of data the next can be as little as 2MB. I know the data stream will end with a token </feed>but my problem is the cut off data in between. I guess I could just make the max size really large and then hope the data is never more than that but then I have to work with large text files and reading in and parsing would be a problem.
timestamp = DateTime.Now
numbytesread = responseStream.Read(bufferread, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)
If numbytesread > 123 Then
'timestamp = DateTime.Now
responseData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString

I'm trying to make a application where the user can add a treenode to a treeview, and then after that they can add items to a listbox, making those items bound to that treenode? I need to do this for each node they create but I don't know how... I've been googling and reading tutorials on "DataSets", but it's always stuff about online databases
View 9 RepliesI am trying to figure something out. I have an application in which I am adding the ability to consume a feed. I have no problem with the feed itself, but my problem is how can I mark certain items as 'read'? The only thing I can thing of is to read the feed into a database. In this database, I add a column for 'read' which I update when the user has read the article. Then each time I retrieve the feed, I compare the feed to the database and only load new items into the database.
View 2 RepliesI'm having a problem with my software.
This is are the parts of my system where my problem occurs:
- Search Button
- List Box1
- TotalTextbox
- Button
- SQL Database with a Column named "Amount" and it only contains numbers Datatype is System.String
So, basically a user clicks the Search button and searches for a data in the SQL Database, and the result of the search displays in different Listboxes including the "Amount" Column from the database, which has it's own Listbox named "Listbox1". the Listbox is now filled with numbers.
Goal: The goal is to get the Sum of all the "Numbers" Displayed in the Listbox1, and the Total is then Displayed into a Textbox via using Click event or automatically.
The Code:
Dim sum As Double
For x As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
sum += CDbl(ListBox1.Items(x))
Next
TotalTextBox.Text = sum.ToString
And i got this Error: Conversion from type 'DataRowView' to type 'Double' is not valid.
I ended up with this..
Dim sum As Double
For x As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
sum += Val(ListBox1.Items.Item(x).ToString)
Next
TotalTextBox.Text = sum.ToString
But the values are not adding up, the total is always at 0. i've been searching for hours now from the net to a better way of doing this.
Here's a quick Flow on what im trying to accomplish here. Record from Database -----Displays on---> Listbox1 -----User Clicks--> Button1 ----Displays Total sum on----> Textbox1

Is it possible to have a Textbox on a form that when the user inputs data, ( during Runtime )that data remains in the Textbox for good and the Textbox then becomes read only ?

I've pretty much just started in playing with Visual Basic Studio 2010 and have been using this site for lots of answers so thought I'd join up and harass more directlyI've been trying to move items between two lists, one is databound to a bindingsource, the other isn't. I found out that you can't really move items from databound lists, but you can remove from the datasource instead. This works fine until I want to move the item back - it fills a blank line with seemingly no data.
View 6 RepliesI am having trouble extracting the response XML from an XMLHTTP request.
I am currently subscribed to a RSS Feed, [URL]
The code I have only retrieves the first 20 posts rather than all of the 133 posts that I see.
I am linking the problem to cookie settings. I seem to think that the request I am sending is not incorporating the cookie settings that I have on my computer.
You may have to subscribe to a feed to extract more than 20 posts. The standard for RSS feeds (without subscriptions) only allows a user to view 20 posts, HOWEVER, with subscription, the feed's number of posts grows.
Provided is the code I have implemented so far

I have an Address Book project with a listbox. The listbox is bound to the database via the little arrow pop-up box in the corner of the listbox.

I have a listbox in my form that gets its values from a data table by data binding. My question is, when the data (row) is loaded it also selects the first line automatically. I do not want this because I want the listbox to select an item only when the user clicks on it. Otherwise, the iteme should ony be listed. Is there a way to manage this?

How do I consume my WordPress blog's RSS feed to display my latest blog posts on my homepage? I ran into the following piece of code to do this:
Function GetRSSFeed(strURL as String) as DataTable
'Get the XML data
Dim reader as XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader(strURL)
[Code]....
But it errors out at this line: 'ds.ReadXml(reader)' with the following error:
A column named 'comments' already belongs to this DataTable.
Perhaps it doesn't work since this code is from 2003? Does anyone have a working code sample?

I need to create a application in vb.net that puts out those cool <<Subscribe to ical>> links, which I can prefill with our events and milestones. While I have figured out I need to use DDay.ical.dll to get the events into a .ics file, I am not clear about how to get these to publish. I was thinking of using an RSS feed, but that defeats the purpose of using icals and would require a RSS to ICal converter,which seems unnecessary.
