how can i send mail over LAN using outlookexp

What do you mean by "serial data".

You send the data according to the specifications of the server that is listening for it. Without knowing that, or knowing how your going to write the server, sending it is a moot point.

You cannot target a folder on the receivers end. It will only show up in their Inbox folder, and if the receiver has any sorting rules in place, the receiver moves it to an appropriate folder.

You don't use Outlook Express to send emails from your code. Outlook Express is/was a wrapper for MAPI. All you have to do is Google for "VB.NET MAPI".

Or, if you're using .NET 2.0 (VB.NET 2005), look at the classes in the System.Net.Mail[^] namespace.

You can not stipulate that type of conditions. It is upto the user's email client and filtering rules to decide the routing.

Also note that, Drafts are normally used to store message in composition before being submitted for delivery to Outbox and then to the SMTP server.

MS Access expects your to pass the path and filename to the image control, not a binary object.

Hope this helps.

thanks for reply

what I need to do if had to pass binary varible to image or picture box control.

One option is to save variable to file. then reference it but it looks unprofessional.

Access doesn't support this.

Your options are quite limited because of Access.

For and next loop... problem

It's a serial device just like any other. Just because it's an IR receiver, doesn't make it special in any way. It's just like you were talking to a modem.

The web is overflowing with examples of Serial communication. All you have to do is Google for, if you're using VB.NET 2002 or 2003, "vb.net serial comm", if 2005, "vb.net 2005 serial comm".

Hi,

I am trying to insert selected items from a listbox into a label, the listbox is fillby a database query, the problem is all I get is this System.Data.DataRowView it works fine when I dont use a database query and just text in the listbox, but need to use a database query.

Can anyone help on a solution for this??

Dim i As Integer<br />
For i = 0 To ListBoxUpgrade.Items.Count - 1<br />
If ListBoxUpgrade.Items(i) Then<br />
LabelSum.Text = LabelSum.Text & Space(6) & ListBoxUpgrade.SelectedItem(i) & vbCrLf<br />
End If<br />
Next i

Thanks in advance!
Stefan.

try ListBoxUpgrade.SelectedItem(i).Text instead

without .Text the ToString() method gets called, which by default returns a string
naming the type.

Hi Luc,

Thanks for that, but doesn't accept the .text after the ListBoxUpgrade.SelectedItem(i) so frustrading it works in 'VB6' which is where I have upgraded from to 'VB2005' all because of 'Vista', many different rules and changes.

What I am trying to achieve, is there is a list of items in a listbox which you can multi select and from there show only those selected items in a label as a summary 'like a report'.

Any more suggestions would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Stefan.

I missed that you missed an 's'

try ListBoxUpgrade.SelectedItems(i).Text instead

Hmmm...

No still no luck! Doesn't like the .text after it.
Sometimes makes me think I should go back to VB6, haha. Was like my second lanugage!

This is the code for VB6, which works fine the only difference is that the 'i' was declare as a variant, but VB2005 wants it as a object, which didn't work so changed it to a Integer.

<br />
Dim i As Variant<br />
      For i = 0 To ListBoxUpgrade.ListCount - 1<br />
        If ListBoxUpgrade.Selected(i) Then<br />
           LabelSum = LabelSum & Space(6) & ListBoxUpgrade.List(i, 3) & vbCrLf<br />
        End If<br />
      Next i

Do you have any more ideas or a better way to write the code??
Or go back to VB6... lol

Thanks,
Stefan.

Dont go back to VB6, if anything show your current VB.NET code here.
And tell exactly what the current result is and what it should be.

The listbox contains objects which could be anything. ListBoxUpgrade.SelectedItem(i) will return whatever text the ToString method returns. For most objects this is the type of object it is. Because you've bound your listview you actually have a listview full of DataRowView objects. This is why the ToString method is returning System.Data.DataRowView. If you want to get the corresponding text of the item (the text being displayed in the listbox) you can use the GetItemText method.

For Each obj As Object In ListBox1.SelectedItems
    Console.WriteLine(ListBox1.GetItemText(obj))
Next

Excellent!

Thank you very much!

You would not believe the amount of books I have, and read that doesn't even state the 'GetItemText' method, Have only just made the transistion in VB2005 a few weeks now.

Great help!

Thanks again. Smile | :)
