Actually it is part of Steganography project and I need to Perform This And operation so that I can Store data at Random ...
r = color And &HFF
g = (color And &HFF00) \ &H100
b = (color And &HFF0000) \ &H10000

In your VB6 code, all that the UnRGB function did was to extract the red, green and blue values from a color.
and put them into clrr, clrg and clrb
UnRGB picImage.Point(r, c), clrr, clrg, clrb
Private Sub UnRGB(ByVal color As OLE_COLOR, ByRef r As Byte, ByRef g As Byte, ByRef b As Byte)
r = color And &HFF&
g = (color And &HFF00&) \ &H100&
b = (color And &HFF0000) \ &H10000
End Sub
Daves code
Dim R As Byte = pixelColor.R
Dim G As Byte = pixelColor.G
Dim B As Byte = pixelColor.B
does that except he has called clrr R, clrg is now G, and clrb is B.
I explained how to get the pixel in a reply to your earlier post.
You now have enough information to solve your problem.
Do not expect us to write it for you.
Do you realise how complex steganography is? If you are unable to grasp the connection between the answers you have been given here and your VB6 code, then you will not be able to cope with steganography.
You might get a better understanding if you go to the Home page of CP and use the search box to look for steganography. There are loads of articles there. I havn't looked at them all but I would expect there to be some in VB.Net
Good luck!

I’m new to VB and WPF and struggling with a SQL query that contains a JOIN. This almost works by there is something not right with the JOIN or SELECT statements. If someone can point me to a resource that contains the proper syntax for statements like the one below, I would be very appreciative. Oh...and I'm using VS2008.
Class Window1
Private db As New cmaDataContext
Private UserView As BindingListCollectionView
Private Sub Window1_Loaded(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Loaded
Dim CMAusers = From a In db.tsmContacts _
Join b In db.tsdContactDetails On _
a.intSystemUserID Equals b.intSystemUserID _
Where a.bitDeleted = "0" _
Select a.vchFirstName, a.vchLastName, a.vchMiddle, b.vchEmail
Me.DataContext = CMAusers
Me.UserView = CType(CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(Me.DataContext), _
BindingListCollectionView)
End Sub
Thanks,
Todd

No problem. Just a minor correction. It isn't actually SQL you're using but LINQ[^]. Although the syntax is somewhat similar, the concept is very different.

I was given a service application that manages (creating/deleting) the partitions on database tables. Currently at the top of every hour, the progam adds a new partition & deletes any partitions that are older than 36 hours. I am being asked to modify this so that on startup the application creates 36 paritions for each of the tables. Then at the top of every hour, it will create a new parition for time + 36hrs and again delete anything older than time-36hrs. A timer is used (with a 30 second interval) to check if it is the top of the hour.
I have 2 questions.....
1. I created a flag and set it to true on startup. Timer tick sub routine checks the flag, if it is True, the app loops through each table and creates 36 paritions, then sets the flag to False. Every time there after, the timer tick routine checks the minute property of the current time and if it is 0, runs the routine to create the new partition and delete the old. Is this the most efficient way to do it. I was reading about custom actions for setup projects and was thinking that maybe the first 36 could be created using this.
2. The timer tick every 30 seconds to check the minute property but I was wondering if there was a better way to check for the top of the hour.
Thanks in advance

I would guess that your timing system is efficient enough considering the task you'r doing. Creating and deleting partitions isn't a small job for the database engine.
Just a question: You didn't say what database you're using, but if it is SQL Server, why wouldn't you create a job under SQL Agent. You could do the programming using T-SQL thus eliminatig roundtrips to database. Also the database wouldn't depend on any service outside the SQL Server itself. For example if your service is stopped, halted etc, your database wouldn't act as expected. Also I believe that both the performance and maintainability would increase.

thanks for your response.
To answer your question, I am using Oracle 10g enterprise. Is there something in Oracle like the SQL Agent you were talking of. I do not have much experience using db, i was just handed this so I am kinda shooting from the hip.
Thanks again

Yes, actually there are a few methods you can use, but I think that the most suitable could be that you use DBMS_SCHEDULER package. It can schedule a job with a given interval. You can find it in documentation in book named "PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference".
But before going into details, have a look at this article: Schedule Away the Routine[^]. I think it describes well the basic concepts of the scheduler.
Hope it helps,

I am trying to change a name of a worksheet.
Currently using ...
Sheets("RDC.d").Select<br />
Sheets("RDC.d").Name = "RDC"
However, the sheet RDC.d is produced from a secondry source and the name changes each time it is requested.
(The RDC part is consistant, the .d may be .g, .h etc)
How do I generically change the worksheet to RDC?
I may point out that the only sheets active will be the Mastersheet I am working in and this report sheet RDC.x
I have tried activating the report sheet...
Sheets(1).Select<br />
Sheets(1).Name = "RDC"<br />
<br />
But this is not working.
Any suggestions?

Hi experts,
Here is an another problem of mine.
I have created a process using
dim p as new process
p.startinfo.filename="calc" 'or notepad
p.start()
Now,my problem is when I run the process the second time, it opens a new exe. That problem can be solved by raising an event. But, I want to MAXIMIZE the exe on top of all window ,if an instance is already running.(we can see the running process in taskbar, but my taskbar is also disabled for some reason, so i want it to get it top of my application with the help of code)
Since my main window doesn't have any close/minimize/maximize button, I want to show the user already running process by bringing the exe on top of my main form.
Could anyone give a solution please.
Thank you in advance.

Why would you want to prevent 2 calculators from being opened? Or two of anything? At any given time I have a good 7 or 8 notepad's open.

OK, so keep the process in a class global variable and check to see if it's Nothing and check to see if it's HasExited property is True before you try to launch another copy.
Also, to maximize the window of another process, you have to send the MESSAGE to the app's window. You can get the window handle to send the message to from the Process class's MainWindowHandle property. Then you just have to call the Win32 API function SendMessage with the window handle and the message. You can get a code example on SendMessage from PInvoke.net[^].
The two constants for the WM_SYSCOMMAND and SM_MAXIMIZE message are:
Private Const WM_SYSCOMMAND As Integer = 274
Private Const SC_MAXIMIZE = 61488
Private myProcess As Process = Nothing
...
If myProcess Is Nothing OrElse myProcess.HasExited Then
myProcess = New Process()
myProcess.StartInfo.Filename = "calc"
myProcess.Start
Else
''' This is where you would send the message to the main window
''' to maximize the window.
End If
You'll have to do some more work to account for the case of the Process exiting, but this should be enough to get you started.

Well, it's not really a message as it is a function call to send one. You need the main window handle property of the process you lanuched, then you use that to call ShowWindow[^].

Hi to All ,
Could anyone help me please , how to take a back up for Ms Access database using vb.net coding...
Note that I am doing this from same application which is using the database. I think it shouldn't give a problem since during taking the backup I am not doing anything else with the database.
Thanks in advance
|

An ms access database is just a file so in order to back it up you can just copy the file.
The system.io.file namespace can help you with that.
|
|
|
|
|
You can simply copy the file, but if it is in use at the same time, there's a slight risk that the copy isn't consistent.
You can also use DBEngine.CompactDatabase Method[^] via Microsoft Access Object Library (add reference to it). The starting point is Access.Application[^] object which you can create using COM interop.

Image processing
I am working on a Vb.net 2005 Express application where I need to compare the color of a image with the reference colors.
What I am planing to do is
- take some pixels from the image
- compare them with the reference colors
- do it for more then one pixels from a area of picture
- decide weather the shade is light or dark
Is this the right approach and how do I do some thing like this ?
The other things I need to know
I am interested in finding the shade of the color so the the user can get a output some thing like light, dark or medium ... how do I find that the given color is in which gradient range of that shade
Regards
Nishkarsh

Load the image into a Bitmap object and use the GetPixel method.

Look at the GetBrightness method of the Color class.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.
