What function are you calling? If it's outside the .DLL you were given, then that .DLL has no bearing on the problem what-so-ever. And your right, the function must follow the _stdcall calling convention in order to work with VB6. There is no way around this unless you wrap the call in a custom written (C++) .DLL that will pass parameters and returns back and forth between the function call and VB.

I have that one problem figured out and I am now able to access the functions; however, I am having a new problem.
I am trying to open a TCPIP connection through a specific piece of software to which I have the DLL that allows me to make the connection.
The function is:
Private Declare Function QTM_OpenTCPIPConnection Lib "QTMClient.dll" _
(ByVal strDestination As String, ByVal strServiceName As String) _
As Boolean
I am trying to set a check to determine if the function was opened successfully. Something like:
errtcp = QTM_OpenTCPIPConnection txtRemoteIP.Text, val(txtRemotePort.Text)
if errtcp = true then
isOpen = True
else
MsgBox "error"
Exit Sub
end if
But no matter what I try errtcp is always FALSE!! Or VB wont let me write the IF statement. I know the connection is working properly because I have software written in C that allows me to open the TCPIP connection. I can't get it to work in VB.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm not familiar with the library at all, and frankly, it's not supported here at CP. Usually, if a function constantly returns a failure result, it's because your not passing the parameters correctly.
It's not a problem with VB. It can pass parameters to most functions without a problem, but only if the parameters are defined properly in the Declare statement.

As far as I know, .Net is not support with windows 95. It might be support from windows 98 to winxp.

No, you can't. The minimum is Windows 98, and even then, there's some stuff that's not supported. The REAL minimum should be Windows NT 4 SP 6a.

Where can I find out what's not supported under Win98?
|
|
|
|
|
I haven't seen anyt site with any kind of a list of features not supported. But, ASP.NET will not work on 98. But, keep in mind that the .NET Framework Base Class Library (BCL) and components are largely wrappers for the Win32 API. There are functions in the API that are not available on anything lower than Windows NT.

Can you post the code that you face the problem on this forum?

Dim ChildForm1 As frmChildForm = New frmChildform
Dim MDIForm as frmMDIForm = New frmMDIForm
ChildForm1.MdiParent = MDIForm
ChildForm1.Show()
The MDIForm is the main form and i am calling this code from another ChildForm but it's not working, instead it opens ChildForm1 as a new form with no MDIParent.Help!
Thanks.

The problem is that your creating a new instance of your MDIParent form and passing that to the child. Instead, pass the MdiParent of the current child form to the new child form. (In a proper MDI application, all child form creation should be left up to the MDIParent, not it's child forms!)
Dim ChildForm1 As frmChildForm = New frmChildform
ChildForm1.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent
ChildForm1.Show()

Thanks Dave I have tried ur code but the problem is still the same it is not opening as a child window.
|
|
|
|
|
Like I said, it's better to have the child creation code in the Parent.
But, we'd have to see more of your code. There's something else you're doing/not doing that we can't see.

Thanks Dave for working on my problem.
This is what i am writing in my MDI form after setting it IsMdiContainer property to true.
Dim ChildForm As frmFind = New ChildForm
ChildForm.MdiParent = Me
ChildForm.Show()
Rest U know what I am doing in child form.
Thanks a lot.

The not what I was looking for...
What else is happening in your child form code, around the place where the new form is created? I'm looking for things like, are you closing the child form that creates your second child form?

Yes I'm closing the childform which creates a new child form but only alter creating and showing the new childform.
Dim ChildForm As frmFind = New ChildForm
ChildForm.MdiParent = Me
ChildForm.Show
Me.Close()
|
|
|
|
|
That's the problem! The old child form holds the reference that is keeping the new child form alive. Once the old child form is destroyed, any objects that it created are also destroyed! That's why I said leave the child form creation up to the parent and not another child!

I'm looking to create a COM component to run on my Web App. The Web App is server ASP pages and needs to access a COM component for retrieving items from a database. The reason I'm considering COM is because I would like to use DB Connection Pooling to interact with SQL server. I know there is a way to register a .net assembly as a COM component. My question is, I would like to know if I will be able to access the COM using VBScript.
For example, can I use something like
Set PageRenderer = Server.CreateObject("MyCompany.PageRenderer")
and then call methods on it?
Thanks for any input!

So long as the target machine has the appropriate version of the .NET Framework installed, this will work. Once the component is registered, it works just like any other COM component.

Hi, My database has two table:
1. tblMain<br />
2. tblChild
tblMain is the main table and tblChild is the child table which has relationship (one to many) from tblMain to tblChild.
In VB.Net I use COM ADO 2.0 to access my access database. In this project, one item in tblMain can have many item in tblChild. The problem that i face is I want to delete one item from tblChild, but it delete all item that relate to tblMain. Example: in tblMain I have the reocrd as befow.
SubjID (Primary key) SubjName
s001 Computer
s002 Mathematic
s003 Economic
and tblChild have the following field and data:
SubjID (Foreign Key) FilePath
s001 C:\VB.doc
s001 C:\Doc\VBdotNet.doc
s002 D:\Prog\Algo.txt
s003 C:\Eco\SoutEas.doc
s003 C:\Eco\Elect.txt
s003 C:\Eco\Oil.doc
And then I want to delete
s003 C:\Eco\Oil.doc
But I after I delete my tblChild table remain only:
SubjID (Foreign Key) FilePath
s001 C:\VB.doc
s001 C:\Doc\VBdotNet.doc
s002 D:\Prog\Algo.txt
The record:
s003 C:\Eco\SoutEas.doc
s003 C:\Eco\Elect.txt
Also delete too, I don't know why??? Can any one told me to solve this prblem...

Probably your sql statement isn´t right.
For this case, the sql statement should be:
DELETE * FROM tblChild WHERE FilePath='C:\Eco\Oil.doc'
