Hi there,
I am trying to make this work for the past three days but with no success. I have a windows form application with web browser control integrated into it. What i want is that when ever there is some file download request come along i get the url and download it via System.net classes, if the file is a word,excel or power point document i open them in my other form where i have integrated the word/excel/pp. all the rest of bits are working the only thing left is that i don't know how to intercept file download. I know i have to implement idownloadmanager interface but i can't make it work, my the download method of the interface never get called. the sample code is here
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class Form1

'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.

hi
I am not able to find the exact meaning of data compression algorithm(i.e deflate). is it any way related to data encryption or just creating an archive file? i have to implement this using the VB6. so please suggest me the best method to do that.
Kind Regards
Sandy

Are you working with data compression or data encryption?

Hi
its actually kind of doing both with the name of data compression. but i am not sure wat data compression actually means.
1) encrytping data to make the file size less?
2) Zipping it inorder to reduce the file size?
What exactly it is?
Kind Regards
Sandy

Data compression is to make the data smaller, reducing the size in memory or in a file. Data encryption is securing the data so unauthorized people cannot view the data. You can have both work together. For example, compress the data first, and then encrypt the compressed data. To undo the action I've just mentioned, you'd then decrypt the data and then uncompress the data for viewing, processing, etc. There are plently of compression libraries that can be googled and articles on this site.
Hope this helps,
Paul

The best way to do it is to look for a component that will do it for you. Google results[^] for "vb6 data compression .zip".

2. how to control the textbox allows alphanumeric values. For example Ic No. S1234567D
- so i want 1st character to be Alphabet and other 7 be numeric and the last 1 be alphabet.
I'm thinking for 2 weeks still i couldn't find a solution. HELP ME!!

Simple programmer wrote: 1. How to control the textbox allows alphabets only. i want to know is there any other method beside Keypress event().
The only other place in the KeyDown event of the TextBox.
Simple programmer wrote: . how to control the textbox allows alphanumeric values. For example Ic No. S1234567D
- so i want 1st character to be Alphabet and other 7 be numeric and the last 1 be alphabet.
Same thing as #1. But the best method would be to use a RegEx expression to check the string in the TextBox, combined with the current KeyDown character, for the proper format.
Or you could just use a MaskedEdit control[^] to do the same thing... In VB.NET 2005, there's already one of these in the ToolBox.

Hi Dave,
Thanx a lot. i will try it out. Hope it works.

I have added refrence of microsoft flexgrid.
However , the toolbox could not show the control.
Help me.
Thanks a lot!
|
|
|
|

You have to add it to the ToolBox yourself. Just adding a reference to the .OCX won't do it. Right-click inside the Toolbox and pick Add/Remove Items... I think you can figure it out from there.

Hey everyone,
I've been looking around for some advice on OpenGL with VB.NET. I spent the last year learning and refining my ability with VB.NET and want to move into the 3D world.
I have 2 questions:
1. Would it be better for me to pickup C++ again to program this in or is there not too big of a differece? At what point (if any) is the difference noticeable?
2. I've pretty much only see "Tao" and "CsGL" as ways to use OpenGL. Any recommendations/alternatives?
I want to essentially program a simple "game" where you login, it shows you a sprite of some kind, you can move around and interact with objects, etc. Long term, if I can make a real game out of it... great. Other than that, just doing it for the experience.
Thanks,
Mike

Have you reviewed this article? It talks about using CsGL in VB.NET.

I'm working on an applicaiotn that distributes files -- as they come into one directory, the file name is parsed, and the file is moved to the appropriate output directory based on the name.
I have it working well for the case where a file in the monitored directory is changed, or copied in from a local location.
I have two issues I'm having a problem coding for:
1) If the program starts and there are already files in the directory, I want it to work through the file list one at a time and process the files appropriately.
2) Sometimes the file is transferred in via FTP so it fires multiple change notifications. I want to ignore them until the transfer is done.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
best,
Scott

OK, what's the big deal? Use the Directory class and it's GetFiles method to get a list of files in the directory and start feeding them to whatever routine you've written to process the files.

There is no Closed notification in the FileSystemWatcher. It's impossible for it to know when another application is completely finished with a file before it notifies you. You're only workaround is to, every so often, try and open the file with exclusive rights (DenyShareRead and DenyShareWrite). Once the file successfully opens, you've got a pretty good indicator of whether or not the file is done being written by the FTP server. This, of course, depends entirely on the functionality of the FTP Server that you're using and how it writes to files as they're being uploaded.

Okay, think I can handle that.
Thanks.
