- Visual Basic [VB] >> LoopI need to loop through a index change event, however whenever i loop
through the first combo box always report back correctly its when i
move to the next combobox, that instead of changing the second combo
box it will change the background of the first combo box.
What im i doing wrong?

- Visual Basic >> Controlling ProductVersionHello - In VB.NET, how do I control product version, and access it for
reporting on my splash form? This is a simple .exe solution with a project
built out of a few forms and modules, and contains a setup project.
My vbproj file contains ProductVersion = "7.10.3077" . When I report
Application.ProductVersion, its value is 1.0.1723.16260 so clearly that
comes from somewhere else. Anyway, I don't want either of these values.
I would like to set the product version to 1.1.0, and report 1.1.0.build# .
So I'm looking for advice on how to set the value, and how to access it at
runtime.
Thanks in advance -- Dick Bixler

- VB Scripts >> Regular Expression Replace : $1 shows up as literal.Hi There.
I have searched the news groups and cannot seem to find an answer to my
situation. Basically, I have the following function (that appears
standard across all posts):
Public Function Highlight(p_sFind, p_sSearch)
Dim RegEx
Set RegEx = New RegExp
RegEx.Pattern=p_sFind
RegEx.IgnoreCase=True
RegEx.Global=True
Highlight = RegEx.Replace(p_sSearch,"<b>$1</b>")
End Function
However, wheneven I execute it on some code, I get a literal "$1"
rather then the string I searched for.
For example, Highlight ("Harv", "Harvard Medical School") returns:
"<b>$1</b>ard Medical School" rather than "<b>Harv</b>ard Medical
School".
Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong. Is any server
requirements in using this tool?
Thanks

- MFC >> Max Text for CEdit ?Hi guys,
I tried pasting a lot of characters into a CEdit but it got truncated and I
couldn't type anything else in. It wasn't a huge amount of characters, just
source from a web page that can easily be viewed in Notepad.
What's going on ? Can I fix it ?
Thanks,

- VB Scripts >> Filename with date modified appended to filenameneed to find a way to change filenames that relect the filename and

have users that need to have this in the filename and I am in search of
some help in this matter. Example is a file named test.txt with a date

- Visual Basic [VB] >> Reliable conversion from byte() to string WITHOUT use of System.Text.EncodingThe reason I want to do so, is that I am sending to DOS and I am pretty
certain that it will not work.
Everything I've tried so far hasnt.
In my test environment (Windows to Windows) this works perfectly, but not
when sending to DOS:
Private Function bytearray2string(ByVal input As Byte()) As String
Dim output As String
output = System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetString(input)
Return output
End Function
Private Function string2bytearray(ByVal input As String) As Byte()
Dim output() As Byte
output = System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetBytes(input)
Return output
End Function
I have also tried this, to no avail in Windows:
Private Function bytearray2string2(ByVal input As Byte()) As String
Dim output As String = ""
Dim i As Integer = 0
'Dim vchar As Char
While i < input.Length
output = output & CChar(Chr(input.GetValue(i)))
i = i + 1
End While
Return (output)
End Function
Private Function string2bytearray2(ByVal input As String) As Byte()
Dim output(input.Length - 1) As Byte
Dim i As Integer = 0
For i = 0 To UBound(output)
output(i) = CByte(Asc(input.Chars(i)))
Next
Return (output)
End Function
The desired functions need to use no encoding and be able to work with
simple bytes. The values I'll be receiving wont be higher anyway.
I'd appreciate any feedback whatsoever.

- MFC >> Remote Desktop does not show system tray icon.My program is a service that runs on Windows Server 2003. The program displays a system tray icon
that seems to work fine when viewed from the PC's monitor. However, if I access the PC remotely
using Remote Desktop the icon does not appear. Many other icons appear, but not mine.
Using task manager, my program is running "SYSTEM".
NOTE: My program already handles TaskbarCreated for the case where explorer crashes.
Any ideas?

- Mcse >> Design ExamsI have one more exam to complete before im MCSE W2K... and
its one of the design exams. I've heard the 220 exam is
four hours long... which seems a little daunting! I asked
at my local test centre and they suggested 70-219. I dont
seem to hear much about 70-221... is that because everyone
has been put off by 70-216? Anyone out there got any
advice on the design exams for me (and any books you can
suggest would be helpfull)

- Visual Basic [VB] >> After days and hours, could not achieve to do this ...Hello MVPs and other Gurus,
I (urgently) need to fill a TreeView in a Windows form with the
data of a text file structured as under :
- begin
Root\
Root\Node1\
Root\Node1\SubNode11\
Root\Node1\SubNode11\SubNode111\
Root\Node1\SubNode11\SubNode112\
Root\Node1\SubNode12\
Root\Node1\SubNode12\SubNode121\
Root\Node1\SubNode12\SubNode122\
Root\Node1\SubNode12\SubNode123\
Root\Node1\SubNode13\
Root\Node1\SubNode14\
Root\Node2\
Root\Node2\SubNode21\
Root\Node2\SubNode21\SubNode211\
Root\Node2\SubNode21\SubNode211\SubNode2111\
Root\Node2\SubNode21\SubNode211\SubNode2111\SubNode2112\

Root\Node2\SubNode21\SubNode212\
Root\Node2\SubNode21\SubNode213\
Root\Node3\
- end
Any name in this example is fake and can be replaced
with a whatever string matching the structure.
I easily extracted each Node.Text from the file, but after days
and hours roaming around the availabilities of VB.Net (Visual Studio 2003)
and various Internet Sites, I could not achieve to fill the TreeView properly.
;-(
Any tip, link, code, advice, and support will be highly appreciated.
TIA to all.

PS: sorry for crossposting in the VB.Net and Visual Studio related NGs
but it's a matter of time now.

- Visual Basic >> Dr Watson errorI have a VB6 program that receives data using socket and save the data to a
SQL Server 2000 database.
It has Windows 2000 SP4 with all hot patches in it. It has 2 gig of RAM.
The program had been running for years with no problem, but for the last 3
days it had died exactly at 3 AM. No error on the screen, but there is Dr.
Watson error (it is in drwtsn32.log).
The error in drwtsn32.log is:
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation) --> this is on this VB
program.
I do not know how to read Dr Watson log, but the "Raw Stack Dump" contains
c:\winnt\system32\comsvcs.dll.
I searched on the internet and found that there was an Access Violation
error with comsvcs.dll, and the fix is to install the latest Windows
patches, which we already did. We also increased the memory from 1 gig RAM
to 2 gig. The program still happens.
There is no scheduled task running at 3 AM.
Does anybody know how to read Dr Watson log ?
How can I fix this problem ?
Thank you very much.

- MFC >> mimic cin abilityI am connecting with a hardware device that sends data
via keyboard emulation. That is it sends the data as if
it were typed on the keyboard. So I wrote a shell that
used cin to get those input values. Now I am trying to
port my text based system to a dialog so it can be user
friendly.
So I want to have an edit box that has the cursor put
there. I know you can use GetDlgItemText to get text
from an edit box, but I don't know of anyway to make the
GetDlgItemText wait until a new line character like cin
does? I have also tried
CWnd* pntr=GetDlgItem(id); to see if there are any
particular methods available to you that way that would
help but I couldn't figure it out. Anybody know how to
do this one?
I also have not been able to find a method to allow me to
make the edit box the focus. the SetFocus returns a
pointer but doesn't take an id to say what is being
focused.
Thanks in advance for answering the newbie's questions.

- MFC >> 2 "type" problems...Hi,
(Follow up to microsoft.publicisa.sdk-dev)
I'm under VC++ 5.0 and try to use functions from ISA SDK.
1)I wonder how could I fill the WCHAR psz[100] with a CString content ?
Here is the code:
--------------------
WCHAR psz[100];
wcscpy(psz,L"MyString"); //this works
---------------------
But, I need to have MyString come from a CString
2)This code always return values <=255.
long l = fpcDestinationSet->Count;
ie: If I have 350 elements, the long l is : 94 (350%256)
even if I try the C++ way :
long count;
fpcDestinationSet->get_Count(&count);
printf("Destination Set : %s count : %ld\n", (char*)
fpcDestinationSet->Name,count);
the "Count" (get_Count() method for DestinationSet is here :

- Visual Basic >> Integration with Word, can this be done?Here is what I have to accomplish, and I want to know if this can be done,
and pointers on how can this be done.
1) I need to start a new Word document using a template provided by the
customer. The customer will provide different templates, and my code would
know wish template to invoke. The question is what methodology do I use to
start the new Word doc?
2) At the end when the user saves the document, I need to send a copy of
this new created document by email to a destination. The destination may
change, and the settings could be saved in a INI file (TBD). My question is
can I override the SAVE button in Word, or provide a special button on the
toolbar to be pressed when done. Don't know what to do ????
Any tips/pointers would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your reply.

- Visual Basic >> buy more cheaper runescape gold on www.cheap-runescape-gold.comWell for most it is a method of playing the game and working out how
to make money by developing skills that can earn good amounts of
Runescape money in comparison to the time invested. For others they
have developed a keen sense of the Runescape markets and managed to
provide a service of buying and selling major raw and processed
materials that are in high demand and supply. This means of making
Runescape gold is referred to as merchanting and loads of information
about how to go about earning gold in this way can be found in free
Runescape gold guides that are on many Runescape fan sites and forums.
Even with the availability of free Runescape gold guides there are
also many Runescape gold guides for sale on the internet, though from
my experience none are really worth the money if you have been playing
for a couple of months and have reviewed a few of the free guides to
making Runescape gold on Runescape fan sites and forums.

- Visual Basic [VB] >> Flexibility vs ReliabilityMy co-worker and I are debating Flexibility vs. Reliability.
For example this method is highly flexible:
Public Shared Function GetList(ByVal whereClause As String) As String
strSQL = "SELECT field1,field2,field3,field4,field5 FROM table1 "
If whereClause <> String.Empty Then
strSQL &= "WHERE " & whereClause
End If
Return strSQL
End Function
My co-worker agress that it is flexible but would prefer to use more
reliable techniques like Overloading and Strong Typing of parameters.
Public Shared Function GetList(ByVal field1Value As String, ByVal
field2Value As Integer) As String
strSQL = "SELECT field1,field2,field3,field4,field5 FROM table1 "
strSQL &= "WHERE field1='" & field1Value & "' AND field2=" &
field2Value
Return strSQL
End Function
My argument is that you can't predict every possible combination of field
values and arguments so the number of where clauses and overloaded methods
would grow to ridiculous proportions.
Have other people faced this issue? If so what did you think about it?
Appreciate any insights and experiences.
Thanks!

- Visual Studio C++ >> Namespaces Managed C++Hello,
can I avoid to dump everything in a namespace somehow? I'm trying to make
my class serializable as such:
// Units.h
#pragma once
#using <System.xml.dll>
#using <mscorlib.dll>
using namespace System::Xml::Serialization;
public __gc class Metric {
public:
Metric();
System::String* areaUnit;
};
Do I really have to dump everything in System::Xml::Serialization into
globabl namespace like this? I think it is bad practice to do so in header
files, at least it is with C++.

- Visual Basic >> Using timersHello,
1.
Is there any 'optimal' number of timers can be used on one form?
2.
Which design will be more efficient:
A. using one timer and combine different events using If... Then
statements.
Because each event requires different time interval change timer
intervals for each event will be included in the code
or
B.
For each event use different timer with preset time interval
Your thoughts please,
Jack
