I don't have the compilter in front of me, so I can't verify this, but you should be able create a MemoryStream object, docs are here[^] on MSDN and use that as the backing store for the XmlTextWriter . XmlTextWriter can accept any class that inherits from the Stream class, which MemoryStream does.
' Create an auto expanding MemoryStream object
Dim memStream As New MemoryStream()
' Create a new XmlTextWriter using the default encoding of UTF-8
' and point it to the new MemoryStream backing store.
Dim writer As New XmlTextWriter(memStream, Nothing)
writer.Formatting = Formatting.Indented
writer.Indentation = 4
writer.WriteStartElement("Clients")
writer.WriteStartElement("Client")
writer.WriteStartElement("Name")
writer.WriteString("Joe Bag 'o Donuts")
writer.WriteEndElement()
writer.WriteEndElement()
writer.WriteEndElement()
Don't forget to .Flush() and .Close() when you're done!

Thanx dave, one little question. Do i need to install the parser for writing xml in "ISO-8859-1" encoding or does .net provides support.
|

Parser?
Are you talking about writing yor XML using ISO-8859-1 encoding? I'm no expert on Encoding, but I don't think it's supported directly by the .NET Framework in a write situation. It'll support reading an ISO-8859-x encode, but I don't think support comes with writing it.
That'll take some further research to see if a class already exists. Try Google. There's also nothing stopping you from inheriting from System.Text.Encoding and creating your own Encoding class.

Hi To ALL!
In VB.NET, i have an integer variable whose value is set to 0 but i need to convert the value of the variable as null while saving to sql database.

can i be able to do that ?
Pls give me some suggestions

You could use DbNull.Value , found here[^] in the MSDN documentation.
All you would need to do is check i for a 0 value before you either assign the value of i to your parameter object or the value of DbNull.Value .

Is it possible to handle an event from a COM object in VB for Applications? How?
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for answering, but it isn't what i'm looking for.
I'm able to create the object and call its methods. The problem is that the COM object throws events, and i don't know how to handle them.
For example in VB.NET i have
dim WithEvents myCOMObject as New MyCOMClass
Then, i can catch the events that myCOMObject throws easily. But I have try to do the same in VB for Applications and i can't use WithEvents. So, is there another way?
I'm not a VB programmer, I'm just doing some testing applications for my COM project.
Thanks for the help.

Hi everyone, first let me thank you for reading this post.
Ok, I am making my own set of controls and I would like to be able to group certain properties together. I dont mean the standard <category> tag to put them under the same header, I mean for example, like the font property.
A user can specify the whole fon style for the property by clicking the ellipse button, or they can expand the font section and modify individual parts of the font - like size, style etc.
Does anyone know how to achieve this result with your own custom properties?
thanks for all the support.

I have a query in MS access that I want to pass the where clause as a parameter. The way I have it now, it ignores the where clause and it displays every record in the table. How can I rewrite this query?
SELECT MAIN.ID, Languages.Languages, FIRST, STATES.STATE, Category.Category, Specialization.Specialization, Certification.Certification
FROM ((((MAIN LEFT JOIN Languages ON MAIN.Language=Languages.ID) LEFT JOIN StateS ON MAIN.State=StateS.StateID) LEFT JOIN Category ON MAIN.Category=Category.ID) LEFT JOIN Specialization ON MAIN.Specialization=Specialization.ID) LEFT JOIN Certification ON MAIN.Certification=Certification.ID
WHERE @whereCluase
Thanks,
Martin

If you pass in the where clause, you'll need to build the query as a string, and call the execute method. This is VERY ugly, make sure you need to do it. Also don't forget to protect against injection attacks.

Hi All,
Is it possible to move image files around an ImageList during run time after the ImageList has been populated at design time?
Basically i'm looking for the code syntax for being able to sort image files (*.gif) in an ImageList.
Can this be done using the "index" value of the stored images?
thanks
|
|
|
|
|
There isn't any way to sort an existing ImageList. You can Add images to the end of the ImageList and RemoveAt any index in the list, but you can't "AddAt", "Insert", "Move", or "Swap".
I can see a possible way to do it, but you'd end up extending the existing ImageList class and supplying the code to InsertAt or Swap. The only way I can see supporting this is making an entirely new ImageList, copying the images from the source ImageList one at a time to a new ImageList and stopping at the appropriate places to make whatever changes are needed.

Thanks for putting me out of my misery Dave. I also had the idea of generating another imagelist but was trying to do things more compactly if possible.
Do you know if there is a way of extracting the index of the image file as an integer and store it as another variable?
thanks

Are you syaing that you want the .Add() method to return the index that the image was put into? .Add() is a sub and doesn't return a value. Since the new image is always appended to the end of the collection, you can probably use the Items.Count property to find out what the next index is going to be before you .Add() the image.

Hello to all of you.
If anyone knows I would ge glad if someone could help me on this:
I have a form where there is a panel (call it panel_1). In this panel I want to display 5-6 panels, one at a time, depending on some buttons. Here is what I do. In visual studio .net, I create a new userControl class where I place my panel (panel_2). Then, i go to my main form, where panel_1 is and I add my userControl. But the buttons of panel_2 are BLACK, and it seems that there is no refreshing.
When I run the application, the part of the screen that has panel_2 shows abnormal things such as icons of my desktop!
Is there any bug, when adding userControls. Do i need to do anything, such as repaint or something else?
Thank you in advance!

Hi All,
Am getting a problem in crystal reports when getting connected through the dataset.Iam not knowing where the code goes wrong.
In button_click,am generating the dataset and finally
Dim oRpt As New rptDemo
oRpt.Load()
oRpt.SetDataSource(myDs)
crystalreportviewer1.ReportSource = oRpt
Am getting a blank report. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
|
|
|
|
|
you need to supply the path to your template file to the oRpt.Load call.
oRpt.Load("c:\myReportTemplate.rpt") If you haven't yet defined a report template, then you should do that first when attempting to utilize crystal in this manner.
