after assigning the recordset to datagrid's datasource property, make the unrequired columns width to zero.

Your question is vauge to say the least. Which is it? The chart program or winsock?

You chart question really depends on the graph your trying to make and what you want to support as far as options. Titles, axis labels, data ranges, auto scaling, log charts, line graphs, bar graphs, X/Y charts, Radar charts, ... There is no one algorithm that will encompass all of this. You really have to be more specific in what you want and do a bit of research and think about your design and what it will require before you start writing code.

That's a little vague. Where do you need direction? Are you already competent with Sockets, but need direction on audio and video streaming algorithms? Or do you already know about audio and video streaming algorithms, but need assistance with Sockets?

Well, A quick google for Audio Compression Algorithm[^] and Video Compress Algorithm[^] turned up quite a few results.

As for Sockets, my recommendation for an introductory reference to Sockets in .NET is C# Network Programming by Richard Blum[^] I'm not sure what the VB.NET books on the subject are like - but as the core is all in the framework and not in the individual language this could still be a good reference.

Yes.

AbuFahed wrote:

No, the C# part and the VB.NET part are compiled into different assemblies.

AbuFahed wrote:

Add the C# part to a solution. Add the VB.NET part to the same solution. If the C# part uses code in the VB.NET part then add a reference to the C# part referencing the VB.NET Project, and vice versa.

Does this help?

Hi i am new to vb .net and i don't know why when i load a transparent 32 bit png in a picturebox the transparent part of the pic remains visible like th e background color of the picturebox

I want to see only the pic and then i set at the form proprieties the transparent color white and the picturebox back color to white too. But i still see the background white but the form dissapears

Is tha transparency color stuff only for the form ? Not for the controls too?

Thanks for the replys!

Instead of using Form's Transparency key, use the MakeTransparent method of Bitmap class like this. It works fine.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load<br />
        Dim img As Bitmap = CType(Me.PictureBox1.Image, Bitmap)<br />
        img.MakeTransparent(img.GetPixel(0, 0))<br />
End Sub

The MenuItem Class does not automatically support icons Frown | :(

You have to set .OwnerDraw() property to true, and handle the MeasureItem (setting the size of the item) and DrawItem (drawing the item) events.

Instead of doing that for every MenuItem on your form, you can make a class inheriting from MenuItem, that automatically sets OwnerDraw to true, and draws the item with it's icon. Here is an example someone has posted to this site. Working with OwnerDraw Menus in VB.NET

Dear guys,

Good afternoon! We are currently using VB.NET as our programming language and MS SQL Server as our database. I just want to ask how can I save a database file using a VB.NET code and not the interface or functionalities of MS SQL Server?

Thanks... More power....

This doesn't make any sense. Save what database file? SQL Server maintains it's own files completely isolated from your VB code.

Are you asking how you can create your own database file to maintain data in your app? Have you looked at XML?

If you mean saving the *.mdf file of the database to another location, try this:

<br />
dim source as string = path_to_mdf_file\*.mdf<br />
dim dest as string =path_to_copy_to\*.mdf<br />
'last parameter determines whether to overwrite an<br />
'existing file or not<br />
system.io.file.copy(source,dest,true)<br />

Good afternoon...

I'm sorry if my query is vague. I just want to save or backup my database or database file by using a VB.Net code. It's just like backuping a file to a destination. But I already found a code for that and it has a lot of features like : login to MS SQL Server; backup, restore and repair databases; upload and delete databases; checks connection; controls server; etc...

Thank you for your advices...
