I realized that setting the PaperSize in program is not enough. My host printer is OKI Microline 3320 and I solved my problem by setting Page Length to 6 inch. Then giving value of (W:780, H:600) which is the receipt size of my customers to PaperSize, I saw that now the tractor of the printer rolls the page correctly.

Hi all,
see I have class module which has a subroutine say
private sub myrt()
dim str as string
str="just check"
form1.reta(str)
end sub
there is a subroutine in the form (named as form1) module
named as reta
private sub reta(byref asd as string)
asd="the return value"
end sub
the problem with this is that, even though the variable is passed as refrence in the subroutine, the value of str is still showing "just checking" instead of "the return value"
after executing the sub reta
this only happ in the class module, do it in the same nodule the problem does not exists.

You'll have to step through your code and find the second function you defined as reta .
Next, since you defined the function reta as Private in Form1, it can't be called by any code outside of Form1 class.
Lastly, did you pass a reference to Form1 to your class module where myrt is defined? If not, your not using the Form1 instanace that you think you are. Forms in VB.NET do not work like they did in VB6 and below.
In order to diagnose this further, we'd need to see more of your code, preferrably copied and pasted between <pre></pre> tags.

thanx for the info dave, but I am using VB and not VB.Net, so the problem is comming in that, so if u have any idea, kindly reply the same

The same rules for public/private subs and functions as well as passing parameters apply to both VB and VB.NET. We'll have to see the code your using to see what's going on.

Lots of ways to skin this cat...
* Just about any reporting tool
* 3rd party .NET PDF component (there are many)
* Open Source .NET PDF component (there are a couple)
* Print to PDF using (free) PDF995 or (pay) Adobe software
I have used Aspose PDF with some success. Try This search for some articles.

Anybody know how I can programmatically have a PDF file created and shoot records into it, then save it?
Thanks!

Someone pls tell me how to change the page orientation setting for a printer before sending a job to printer, and how to restore the setting after printing.
i.e. i want to change the setting completely so i can even see it in control panel as the new setting.
In vb6. Thanks.

use the GetDeviceCaps API call to see if you can set the printer landscape.
If so use the OpenPrinter API call to get a handle to the printer and pass this to the SetPrinter API call to change the settings.
..although rememeber that users don't really like you to change their settings system wide...

I'm trying to setup a CSV file to report data on a Crystal Report from within .NET using Visual Basic.
I'm setting the data source up under the "More data sources", "Access/Excel" section. I can pull the fields and place them on the report and the project builds without any errors, but when executed it asks for the login id and password.
There is no login id or password on a csv file. Is it possible to pull data into a crystal report via a csv file? If it is possible, does someone have a solution or sample code?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I didn't receive any replies at CodeProject to this thread, but I did want to share the solution that I was given on GotDotNet.com. Hopefully this will help someone in the future with the same problem. Here is the link:

Hi Narendra,
Sorry for the delay in response. I was on vacation last week when you posted. The Microsoft GotDotNet.com website is no longer maintained so the link I posted in 2004 no longer works. I dug back through the e-mails I kept and here were the 4 suggestions I received on that forum. Not sure which one I used or even which project I was working on at that time to even check, but hopefully posting the actual responses that they gave me will help you in some way.
1st answer:
You could write the schema of the dataset created out to an xmlfile, and then add the xml file to crystal reports using More Data Sources, ADO.Net(XML).
Public Sub CreateXmlFile(ByVal XmlFilename As String, ByVal XmldataSet As DataSet)
Dim XmlFile As System.IO.FileStream
Dim XmlFileStream As New System.IO.FileStream _
(XmlFilename, System.IO.FileMode.Create)
Dim XmlOutput As New System.Xml.XmlTextWriter _
(XmlFileStream, System.Text.Encoding.Unicode)
XmldataSet.WriteXmlSchema(XmlOutput)
End Sub
2nd answer:
Can't you just connect to the CSV file with an OleDb.OleDbConnection, and fill a DataSet with an OleDb.OleDbDataAdpater?
I fill datasets in this way all the time.
-------------------------------------------
Dim txtConn as New OleDb.OleDbConnection
txtConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=miscrosoft.jet.oledb.4.0;Data Source=Directory Name;Extended Properties=Text;"
Dim txtCmd as New OleDb.OleDbCommand
txtCmd.Connection = txtConn
txtCmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM [filename.csv];"
Dim txtAdpt as New OleDb.OleDbDataAdpater
txtAdpt.SelectCommand = txtCmd
Dim ds as New Dataset
txtAdpt.Fill(ds)
------------------------------------------------
Now you have a disposable dataset that should be able to interact with Crystal Reports.
3rd answer:
There is a workaround for this problem on page 262 of the book at this site:
http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/?cpgn=ngcr_021803
This is a very good .Net Crystal Reports book.
It states to connect to the Excel file using DAO, then design the report, and since the DAO connection prompts for login, password, switch the connection to ODBC after the report is designed.
4th answer:
I think crystal made a fix to this problem, you might check their support site.

Hi,
Has anyone worked with WinHTTP and multithreading in VB.NET
I have written a small application for understanding threading in VB.NET.
It consists of initializing new thread, each consisting of a winHTTP request to open a particular page located on our local LAN.
The code for opening a new page in a new thread is
Private Sub Start()
Dim myWinHTTP As New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest()
myWinHTTP.Abort()
myWinHTTP.SetTimeouts(5000, 5000, 5000, 5000)
myWinHTTP.Open("GET", "http://192.168.0.60/Alliance/Login.aspx", False)
myWinHTTP.Send()
textbox.Multiline = True
textbox.Text = textbox.Text & " $$$ " & myWinHTTP.StatusText & ". Thread Id : " & Thread.CurrentThread.GetHashCode()
countLbl.Text = serial
End Sub
As observed, there were frequent errors in opening the page. The sub Stated above too was not completely exectued for quite a few threads. The control used to dissaper from the code post the command 'Dim myWinHTTP As New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest()' itself.
In anyone has any clue abt the corresponding error, please inform.

I've got a couple of questions...
Why are you using WinHTTPxxx instead of the System.Net namespace and the WebRequest class? Are you using some component for Web requests or are you using a library your put together yourself?
Why are you creating a new WinHttpRequest object and the first thing you do is call the .Abort method?

I need the user of my program to select a computer name from the computers attached to his network, but have no idea how to get started to make a list of the computers.
This has to be done in VB6 (or Delphi)
Once that is done I can readily handle all the rest of the code I need.

In VB6 you can find a lot of info regarding the network using the Active DS Type Library (Domains, Groups, Users and Computers).
First set a reference to the above library
then declare your object variables
Dim objIADsContainer As IADsContainer
Dim objIADsDomain As IADsDomain
Dim objIADSComputer As IADsComputer
If you need to find a list of the domains first use the following code:
Set objIADsContainer = GetObject("WinNT:")
For Each objIADsDomain In objIADsContainer
Debug.Print objIADsDomain.Name
Next
If you only have 1 domain and want to find all computers on that use the following:
Set objIADsContainer = GetObject("WinNT://" & "Your_Domain_Name")
objIADsContainer.Filter = Array("Computer")
For Each objIADSComputer In objIADsContainer
Debug.Print objIADSComputer.Name
Next
All this assumes you have a windows NT network. You should be able to get the basic info above on any NT network. If you have a well designed Active Directory structure you can find a lot more than just the computer name.
Hope its helpful

What do you mean by "total levels"?
Are you talking about how many levels deep the deepest child node is from the tree root?

Hey, this is my first time, so I'll try to be as clear as possible
What I am trying to do, is control the system device audio levels in my VB app. Basically I want to create my own "mixer board" very similar to the supplied "Volume Control" program supplied with windows. On first glance, it seems relatively easy, however I am running into some problems.
Here is what I have so far...
Public Declare Function auxSetVolume Lib "winmm.dll" (ByVal uDeviceID As Integer, ByVal dwVolume As Integer) As Integer
Public Declare Function auxGetVolume Lib "winmm.dll" (ByVal uDeviceID As Integer, ByRef lpdwVolume As Integer) As Integer
Public Declare Function auxGetNumDevs Lib "winmm.dll" () As Integer etc.
the problem is, whenever I call auxGetNumDevs(), it returns 0, which means there are no sound cards present (which is NOT the case), or an error occured. I have no idea why it keeps returning 0.
Maybe this isn't the best way to go about controlling the system audio, so I am open to any suggestions
Thanks in advance
