Re: Parallel Port Communication Problem Ritesh Sompura13-Feb-04 20:05 Ritesh Sompura 13-Feb-04 20:05  Hi! Folks, Below are the few queries that have arised in my mind after looking at the code in file "inpout32drv.cpp". These are few of the hardcoded paths, that I have found, 1. C:\kernel_mode_driver_source\i386\hwinterface.pdb 2. nsf.\i386\hwinterface.sys 3. In CreateService function call you are using the hardcoded path "System32\\Drivers\\hwinterface.sys", but I have the "hwinterface.sys" file in the application directory only. Also, I have no such file in my "system32\drivers" directory. First of all I don't know these paths stands for what? Second thing is, Any of the above specified paths are not valid on my system. Can these be a reason, that program is not working on my system? I am sending the same at your e-mail box. Thanking You, Regards, Ritesh. Scrollable tab Anonymous11-Feb-04 6:32 Anonymous 11-Feb-04 6:32  Is it possible to have Scrollable tab. This property is not available in tab control, but is it any additional codding needs to be done. Thanks Re: Scrollable tab Anonymous12-Feb-04 4:55 Anonymous 12-Feb-04 4:55  Yes, additional coding is required, and a lot of it. Re: Scrollable tab Steve S12-Feb-04 6:19 Steve S 12-Feb-04 6:19  In fact, it might be easier to use a custom ActiveX control. Steve S Re: Scrollable tab Anonymous12-Feb-04 9:47 Anonymous 12-Feb-04 9:47  Is it somewhere (sites) I can take a look and see where should I start in order to accomplish my task. Or maybe some examples are exists? Thanks Internet Explorer Automation ltt1911-Feb-04 6:24 ltt19 11-Feb-04 6:24  Hi, I want to automate the internet explorer, but not like the example in the Visual Basic Resource Kit.

If someone knows how to interact with the Internet Explorer, please anwser me back, it should be very helpfull... Thanks in advance Embedding icons Namboy8211-Feb-04 5:44 Namboy82 11-Feb-04 5:44  Hi everyone I have followed Scotts Bonds instructions on how to embedd an icon into the exe or DLL but always get the same exception the instruction are: To embed your icons in your application, drag them into your .NET project. Edit the properties for each one. See the "Build Action" property that's set to "Content"? Change it to "Embedded Resource." That will make it compile into your exe or DLL. That's it! You've just embedded an icon or two into your application. So...how do you get it back out? Function GetEmbeddedIcon(ByVal strName As String) As Icon Return New _Icon(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.GetManifestResourceStream(_ strName)) End Function The strName parameter is of the format <appnamespace>.<filenamewithoutextension>.<filenameextension> so, something like MyApplication.MyLogo.ico. I have chnaged the icons to be embedd resources when built but get the error message that MyLogo is not a memebr of MyApplication. Does anybody know what I am doing wrong and a solution to solve this. Thanks Vu Datagrid and combobox - Help?!! r4769310-Feb-04 20:09 r47693 10-Feb-04 20:09  Hi .Net'ers, I have a datagrid with two columns being represented as comboboxes. The problem is that the list of valid values in the second combobox depends on what value is selected in the first combobox. Ex: LEt us assume there is a datagrid with two columns - Animal and Property Animal contains the following values: CAT, DOG. Property contains: meows, barks, fur, nofur, indoor, outdoor When I load the datagrid the Animal and property columns are appropriately filled with above. Now if the user selects 'CAT', the second combobox in the grid should only display {meows, fur, indoor} and for DOG it should only display {barks, nofur, outdoor}. How can I acocmplish this? Thanks in advance for your help! Re: Datagrid and combobox - Help?!! Dave Kreskowiak11-Feb-04 6:10 Dave Kreskowiak 11-Feb-04 6:10  Simple. The second combobox has to be filled with the appropriate data when the first combobox selection is made, not before hand. RageInTheMachine9532 Re: Datagrid and combobox - Help?!! r4769311-Feb-04 17:43 r47693 11-Feb-04 17:43  Sorry! that may not be possible, because ther are already rows that have been populated. Let me take the actual example:- Wear your manufacturing hat.. The columns in the datagrid are WOrkorder, Itemtobemade (COmbobox), qty, Operation (COmbobox), startdate On Form_Load all the currently scheduled workorders are displayed. So I bind the "Select" statement to the dataset and then to the datagrid. My issue is that based on the item selected only the allowed operations to make that item must be allowed. So when the user adds a new workorder and selects an item, the appropriate operations alone must be shown in the operations combobox. Can somebody suggest the code to control the combobox values at a cell level? TIA, Re: Datagrid and combobox - Help?!! Dave Kreskowiak12-Feb-04 16:15 Dave Kreskowiak 12-Feb-04 16:15  Well, you'r going to have to make it work that way because you can't tell a combobox which items in its list to display and which to not display. It's all or nothing... RageInTheMachine9532 Source Code Editor Control Dave Wurtz10-Feb-04 15:32 Dave Wurtz 10-Feb-04 15:32  Can anyone tell me if there is a control available to edit VB.NET source code? I would like to use a control like the one found in VS.NET to allow a user to type in their own source code in my application without having VS.NET. Intellisense and help bubbles of parameters would be great! Thanks for the help! Re: Source Code Editor Control Matthew Hazlett13-Feb-04 4:01 Matthew Hazlett 13-Feb-04 4:01  I'm working on this... You can check out the color syntex class I made (For the editor) http://thecodeproject.com/useritems/RTBClass.asp (This is not what the project looks like, this was just a test of the color syntax stuff)... Utill, I am done you can use csharpdevelope it supports VB. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sharpdevelop/098setup.exe?download Change file size WESHILL10-Feb-04 10:27 WESHILL 10-Feb-04 10:27  Hi, Does anyone know how I could change the size description of a file without affecting the physical size. For example we could change a file's access date/time with "File.SetLastAccessTime(Path, AccessedDateTime)". I tried the following but it used/reserved the disk space I specified with sizeInBytes. fs = New System.IO.FileStream(Path, IO.FileMode.Open) fs.SetLength(sizeInBytes) Really i would like to make a 0 byte file look like 10mb for example. Thanks Wes... Re: Change file size Dave Kreskowiak10-Feb-04 12:36 Dave Kreskowiak 10-Feb-04 12:36  Then your going to have to fill it or reserve the 10MB worth of nothing and yes, it will actually take up the disk space. The size is not a kind of description attribute of the file, but rather the actual size of the file returned by the file system. RageInTheMachine9532 Re: Change file size Anonymous10-Feb-04 15:35 Anonymous 10-Feb-04 15:35  That's too bad. However, I have seen this done before. The software that does it is DiskXtender by EMC/Legato. They are able to display a fake value in the size field. DiskXtender is a HSM product that basically migrates the original file's data to tape storage and leaves a stub file behind that looks identical to the original except for the actual size. Thanks, Wes... Re: Change file size Dave Kreskowiak10-Feb-04 19:05 Dave Kreskowiak 10-Feb-04 19:05  This is possible because DiskXtender installs an extension to the file system called a a file system filter and uses blocks of data call Reparse Points. The reparse point is essentially a block of data attached to a file that describes additional attributes, or whatever else you want. When the file is opened or you get properties on it, the attached reparse point data is sent to the file system filter that understands it, then the filter gets to do whatever it needs to, like get the actual file from an offline storage device. Look here[^] for more information on Reparse Points. For more information on Installable File Systems, the documentation and SDKs are here[^].
