1) Copy all files and folders from A to B example: Copy From C:Source to \Server1Dest

The thing is to code a simple drawing tool and embed it to an existing vb.net application. The drawing tool should be a simple object and have the functionality very similar to mspaint (windows built-in drawing software). It should also have some custom brushes, and it should support loading and saving pictures in common formats such as bmp, jpeg, gif, and png. how to code such a drawing tool? Or can I instead download any such control or tool as an add-in to vb.net and use it?

View 3 RepliesI am learning VB at the moment and i'm planning how i'm going to make a simple quiz style web application. I want to have a series of questions, one per panel, that a user can select from multiple choice and proceed to next question with at least one option needing to be selected before going to the next question. At the end users get their score out of X.
Forgetting the validation and other bits i need. My thinking is to use a series of panels that have my questions in, so one panel per question, and by default they are all set no invisible bar the first question. Then as the user selects the question the next panel is revealed and the previous hidden, and so on etc.

I'm trying to learn how to do some very simple client-server application programming.
Basically, I want to make a program (the server) that listens and waits, and when a commend is sent it will run a batch file or execute a line of code.
The client will just ask for the ip and send the command when a button is pushed.
Shouldn't be too hard right? So what are some good resources that you've used to get started?

current version is 2008 I'm trying to build an application with a simple MENU. When the user clicks on a Menu Item i want the container to show some controls, now when the user clicks another Menu Item, the container needs to change and show other controls, and so on with every menu Item the user clicks, one at a time.
I thought of panels showing and hiding for every menu Item clicking, but that would use a lot of memory as ALL the controls would be created, some of them just not showing. I also though of an MDI application, but i dont want multiple forms (with the menu bar) opening inside one form. I just want the actual container of one form to change.
a friend of mine wants to create a simple inventory database that can be deployed on the web.He has had a lot of experience with Database tools like Paradox. Moreover he has experience with writing Macros and programs with Basic, and even a bit of C++ experience. He uses Windows and Mac OS X, though mostly Windows.
If the requirement of having a web application wasn't there I would recommend MS Access.

So i'm creating a simple application as an example that is to link to a Access 2007 database.
On my main form i have four listboxes that are correctly attached to the table, I have one for First Name, Last Name, Phone, and School. I added 3 records to the database in Access to see if I could display the records in the listboxes on the form. I found that it was very easy by setting the properties and I have no problem there. I also have a command button that loads a new form for the purpose of adding a record to the database.
Here is my main form (frmMain.vb)...
CODE:
And Here is the code for the form...
CODE:
What i'm looking for is when the user presses the Add button on the frmAddNew form then it needs to close and the new record is listed in the textboxes and saved to the database. Id also like to know all kinds of things i might be able to do with textboxes and databases because i'm trying to learn for a larger project where i'll need to keep track of hundreds of records.
I understand that this is a simple procedure, but i've been spending all night scouring tutorials and getting lost in the msdn library online, so maybe some human input will be better.
I am using Visual Basic.net 2010 to try to develop a simple VB application to control a data projector using RS232.So far, I have programmed the 'power on' button to open the serial port and send the power on command.The port opens successfully, but the projector does not receive the command properly, so it never powers on the projector.The RS232 command for power on is: BE EF 03 06 00 BA D2 01 00 00 60 01 00
My code for sending the command is: Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
