ROTFL
Here's the bottom line. Microsoft has dropped all support for VB6. It's nasty, and it's never going to improve. Why anyone would even consider learning VB6 in 2007 is beyond me.

I was thinking of MSFlexGrid and DatagridView
I needed only datagource property of datagridview
and for that thing to happen , i am taking along all the properties of datagidview.
well i am on the verge of enhancing the MSFlexGrid with a datasource property.
and for these reasons i found vb6 pretty cool.
Isn't that?

There are other data bound controls you can use, which are not as heavy.

No, VB6 is NOT cool, it's a disaster.

VB.NET is fully object oriented, while VB6 is a procedural language with minimal support for object orientation.
The .NET framework contains far more than the VB6 runtime library, that's why it's larger. The framework is included in newer versions of Windows, just as the VB6 runtime library is today.

Fully Object oriented ?
u mean implements multiple hybrid multilevel inheritance also?

I'll give you one major one - Microsoft has abandoned all support for VB6! Thankfully!

Hi All,
I am sending a string from vb.net to powerpoint e.g. "This is going to be really #great# example".
In powerpoint how could i print all the text in a textbox with above string replacing any text between # to bold and rest normal. In my earlier post i have string manipulation code to pull of anything thats in between # but now i am not getting able to interpret it in powerpoint. it is somthing like
Microsoft.office.interop.powerpoint.slide.textrange.text = "String....."
if it contains # make it bold
Microsoft.office.interop.powerpoint.slide.textrange.font.bold = true
else
Microsoft.office.interop.powerpoint.slide.textrange.font.bold = false
end if
now its either making it all string bold or none and i am not getting able to make only text thats in # bold
please help.

What I a trying to do is Print a bunch of text which I get from a text file. I have been able to do that no problem but when I get to the end if there is to much text, I can't get it to go over onto anther page it either just ignores the rest or when it does actually print it it prints it over what I have already done on the same page. I have tried and tried on the e.hasmorepages and it does nothing for me when it actually does some what work it just goes and tries to print XXXX amount of pages instead of just like 2 or 3. I do save my spot of where I last printed on the last page, but it won't start a second page to start printing on that 1. can anyone Please Help Me? Here is a sample of my code, that is to determin when to stop. CurY is the Y location of the Printing Page. QNum is the Number of line so far I have Printed and TotCount is the number of lines I have left to Print
If CurY >= 1000 Then
Hault = True
e.HasMorePages = True
StoppedNum = QNum
End If
If QNum = TotCount Then
e.HasMorePages = False
End If
If there is a better way please let me know! I Thank You for your Time, and Patience!
It is always Coffee Time!

First, don't call anyone "lover", unless it's your girlfriend.
Next, ... This post doesn't make any sense at all. You might want to try explaining what you want to do and get someone to translate into English for you.

I assume the troll noticed that Indians often call people 'dear', and decided to up the ante...

Try this article: VBScan.
Also, try searching CodeProject for barcode if you need additional help.
Trinity: Neo... nobody has ever done this before.

Hi,
I would like to know the best/proper way of handling foreign or special characters between XML, disk file, and XML Soap Reader (UTF-8).
Given that a VB6 program request a XML Soap Web Service. It gets the response and write it to a file using VB6 Open ... as output, print #nn, s....
A VB.NET program then reads this file via XMLTextReader but it fails due to a
'Invalid character in the given encoding'. The character is a 'ü' in München. I am sure there will be more. MSIE cannot read the file either.
So what is the best way to get or write these characters. Hopefully I don't have to check each character.
Thanks

I got a page not found on both links.
I assume yours was about CDATA but the first only gave me some code and no real discussion so I am not sure where to go from here.
Help!

I guess my suggestion would be on the fields you know have special charaters use the base64encode before you put the item into the xml file. Then on the other end you will decode that field when you put it out. I just showed you my example of doing this with a cdata node which is more complicated then you need to do. Encoding the field will take care of the characters that are causing you problems.

So I have to check every character for all the special characters??? The first article does an encoding for every byte for email, etc. Is that the right article?
It seems strange that if I get a XML block in from Web Services that I would have to encode it to be viewed by an XML program like either MSIE or my XMLTestReader program.
I think that I just do not understand what is going on.
I am assuming that if the XML block comes in as UTF-8 that the ü is OK as is. So does it change when I write it to disk. I can still see a ü in the file but MSIE doesn't like it.
What am I missing?

Ok, I see your problem. Your default encoding for when you write the file to disk is most likely not UTF-8. That perhaps is the direction you need to be going. I was encoding my stuff because I was stuffing xml inside of a cdata node of a soap message which is also xml. If I didn't encode it, it just would work.
I actually remember running into a similar problem. If you look at your code with whatever stream you are using to write out the xml file, one of the overloaded options will include passing in the encoding. I would suggest that you pass that in as UTF-8 and it very may well fix your problem.

UTF-8 is not an option in VB6 that I can know. It's either Unicode (UTF-16) or the default (ASCII).
|
|
|
|
|
vb.net supports the encoding. That is where you are getting the error anyway correct? So you may need to change the streamreader that you are using so that it is utf-8 encoding in vb.net
Ben

The error occurs even when MSIE tries to open the file indicating that either the file was written bad or the data came in bad. The .net program fails when 'reading' the file in XMLTextReader. It is already to late by then.
|
|
|
|
|
If you have the correct encoding it seems like this should work. I think you need to try to write out whatever encoding that is support in vb6 that supports these characters and then read it in with that same encoding in vb.net
