For playing sound...use the following
Public Const SND_ASYNC = &H1 ' play asynchronously
Public Const SND_LOOP = &H8 ' loop the sound until next sndPlaySound
Public Const SND_NOSTOP = &H10 ' don't stop any currently playing sound
Public Const SND_NOWAIT = &H2000 ' don't wait if the driver is busy
' Use the following library
Private Declare Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal hModule As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long
' call
PlaySound("FilePath And Name", 0, SND_NOSTOP)

Hi guys.. ok, here is my situation. I am doing SQL database programming ith VS 2003. I did a sql database called 'test.adp'. In this DB there is two tables.. ONe is 'Customer', the other is 'Temp'. In both this tables is the field 'Name'.
Okay, let's say the field 'Name' under the table 'Customer' have only one data in text form called 'David' . In the 'Temp' table, there is no data in it.
Is it possible for me to create a button and put a command in it where it will open up the 'customer' table, extract that 'David' data and insert it into the 'Temp' table under the 'Name' Field? Can anyone give me a brief command example that can accomplish this? Thanz for your time..

OK I'm not trying to be a jerk, just being honest.
No one is going to answer this question because probably no one on this forum has the time or interest in teaching basic SQL and data access in VB.NET. If we did have the inclination, we would not have the time because we'd be busy with either teaching or writing a book.
That's just the basic truth.
Yes this is possible - you can use a SELECT query to get data from one table and an INSERT query to put it in the other. Or use about half a dozen other ways.
All of which require some basic understanding of SQL and data access. You have to learn that on your own.
Again I don't want to seem like a jerk, it's just reality. You can do it - nobody here will do it for you.
We all have to start somewhere, and I understand that the MSDN is not the place - it's just not useful until you reach a certain level.
But the same is true of this forum.
What you need at this point is a good reference book. A beginning book of any kind. If you feel like you are good with picking things up quickly, a beginner book may seem overly simple - in which case certification books often give more technical but useful overviews. To learn NET initially I used the MCSD 70-360 Exam book published by Que, authored by Mike Gunderloy. It is a great quick start. Costs you $50 new, but how much is your time worth?
If you don't have the money, or just want to look at something right now, here is freebie on the web - I don't think it is that great, but it is better than nothing:

Been through that book, it doesn't go through SQL database programming. Select and Insert Command.. We are getting somewhere eventually.. Beasically, I am not asking anyone to write the whole code down for me. as Mentioned on the starting thread, I gave a small example of what I am trying to do and hopefully, someone out there who is helpful enough and have some spare time in his hands can help out.. This is what this thread is for, after all..
So anyone else with some knowledge on this and is willing to help... Will appreciate your time...

DADPTable = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql, DataConnection)
End If
If Not Transaction Is Nothing Then

FetchData = tblData
tblData = Nothing
End Function
Use this function for update :
Public Sub UpdateData(ByVal tableName As DataTable, Optional ByVal Transaction As OleDb.OleDbTransaction = Nothing)
Dim commandBuild As OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder
DADPTable = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter("Select Top 1 * from " & tableName, DataConnection)
If Not Transaction Is Nothing Then DADPTable.SelectCommand.Transaction = Transaction
Dim tblAdd As DataTable = ds.Tables(tableName).GetChanges(DataRowState.Added)
Dim tblModify As DataTable = ds.Tables(tableName).GetChanges(DataRowState.Modified)
Dim tblDelete As DataTable = ds.Tables(tableName).GetChanges(DataRowState.Deleted)
If Not tblAdd Is Nothing Then
If tblAdd.Rows.Count > 0 Then
commandBuild = New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(DADPTable)
DADPTable.InsertCommand = commandBuild.GetInsertCommand()
If Not Transaction Is Nothing Then DADPTable.InsertCommand.Transaction = Transaction
DADPTable.Update(tblAdd)
End If
End If
If Not tblModify Is Nothing Then
If tblModify.Rows.Count > 0 Then
commandBuild = New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(DADPTable)
DADPTable.UpdateCommand = commandBuild.GetUpdateCommand()
If Not Transaction Is Nothing Then DADPTable.UpdateCommand.Transaction = Transaction
DADPTable.Update(tblModify)
End If
End If
If Not tblDelete Is Nothing Then
If tblDelete.Rows.Count > 0 Then
commandBuild = New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(DADPTable)
DADPTable.DeleteCommand = commandBuild.GetDeleteCommand()
If Not Transaction Is Nothing Then DADPTable.DeleteCommand.Transaction = Transaction
DADPTable.Update(tblDelete)
End If
End If
DADPTable = Nothing
commandBuild = Nothing
End Sub

Hi,
Can someone please brief me on how to save 'pdf' files(there are about 15 files) into a SQL database and retrieve/open it from a datagrid?
I have about 15 pdf files on my webserver and need to save it in the SQL database, so every pdf file saved in the database will have a primary key and the file will be saved either as 'ntext' or 'binary' type...I just have this rough idea.
If someone has a ready code in VB.net then nothing better( i know thats a shortcut  but it will help me like a tutorial. C# code will do too, I can then convert the code to Vb.net
Thanks a ton.
Aartee.

I don't know if there are new way of doing it but I use the HTMLHelp Workshop (easy to search and DL for free from MS). You write html pages and then you compile them into a .chm help file.

Hi Friends,
I came to know that there r skins availale for .NET. I mean if we attach that skin to out .NET intsallation then then whatever UserID we design will automatically be as per that skin rather than the default style. We can then change that appereance but at the first time when we add new control or form in our application it will appear as per the theme that we have attached with the .net installation.
So any one can tell me from where I can get these themes and how can I attach that to my .NET?
Plz send me reply soon.
Thank u all.

I am new to .Net. I have created a windows application in vb.net.
Now the problem is that

Is there any possibility.If yes please tell me
Thanks in advance

There is no language on earth that can do this for you.

Again, there is no language on earth that can do this for you. This can't be done at all.

This is the pipe-dream of copy protection. You will NEVER be able to make anything "piracy free". If that was possible, we'd all be paying $5 for video games and $20 for MS Windows, MS Office, ...

Step 1: Go to the PC
Step 2: Pull the plug out of the wall socket; or switch it off.
Yes it can be done programatically, but I don't intend to outline the procedure in this forum.
Apart from the hacking reasons I can think of, why would you want to do this?

Hi all..
I am a very new person in developing this web application using vb.net. Just wondering something, hope someone out there could reply to my question. Well.. in the aspx form, the html code, sometimes i'd see vb coding in <%.. %> tags.. when do the codes in the coding be trigger? how do you use it?
Thanks..
a very confused new starter

Thoese characters are the asp code delimiters, meaning they were/are used in "ordinary" asp development to tell what is script-code and thus needs to be handled by the server before the document is created and sent to the browser.

Huh?  This does not make sense. Which buffer are you talking about?
...Steve

LOTS more explaination is needed here! What buffer? Which API are you using? If this buffer part of your app or another app? What are you trying to do with this buffer?

I am working on a tool for Data Services, and decided to create the tool as a VB.NET windows application. I am not a VB .Net developer, but know enought to get by, though I struggle with the controls because I've never used them (I have used VB 6 controls).
The purpose of the App is to Update an online questionnaire, the questionnaire has branching...etc.
So far, I open a form that Loads two drop down boxes. 1st drop down loads companies, second drop drown is bound to questionnaires for the company selected. You then select the questionnaire being updated.
Then I use Common Dialog, open file, to select an Excel spread sheet that has the new questionnaire stucture, with new questions.
You then click on "Update" and the excel spreadsheet is loaded into a datatable, and the existing "Active" questionnaire is pulled from the DB into another datatable. I then do a row by row comparison against the spreadsheet and the existing version comparing things like question text, answer label, incorrectness of question....among other things, in order to determine if there are new questions being submitted, other wise, I want to use the existing question. some of these take human interaction in order to determine if the question is new. Although I scrub the excel data down, there are still things you cant possible take into account.
So after doing all my comparisons, in instead of popping up a message box every time somethiing is different (there are hunderds of rows and this woudl be annoying) I would like to mark (flag) differences and then when comparison is complete, open up a new form with a with a check box by each possible new question, so the user can validate, by going through and checking what IS actually new.
What control should I use? A listview? I want a checkbox on the left. I would also like to change the background color of the part that has actually changed. Say for instance, the question text changed, or the Answer text changed, of if the incorrectness changed, then mark that.
Thanks in advance for time in effort in this matter. Also, any good resources on the recommended control would be gread.

I don't think you really have any options that will support everything you describe.
There is a CheckedListBox, but no control over the colors.
You might could write enough code to make the intrinsic NET DataGrid control do what you want to do, but it would take a lot of work.
What you really need for this sounds like probably a 3rd party grid, like ComponentOne (the old Apex True Grids) - they generally give you a lot more control than you have over Microsoft controls.
This would have been a lot easier to do in VB6 because you could create your own custom row control ocx and use the DataRepeater to make it into a grid.
VB.NET does not provide a DataRepeater but you may still be able to import the DataRepeater into a NET project and do it that way.
