Your best bet is to do some Googling. I found this in 5 seconds: http://vb.net-informations.com/datagridview/vb.net_datagridview_button.htm

You should already have System.dll referenced you just need to add: Imports System.IO

StreamReader has been available since 2.0:

#region Assembly mscorlib.dll, v2.0.50727
// c:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\mscorlib.dll#endregion
using System;using System.Runtime.InteropServices;using System.Text;
namespace System.IO{ // Summary:
// Implements a System.IO.TextReader that reads characters from a byte stream
// in a particular encoding. [Serializable] [ComVisible(true)]
public class StreamReader : TextReader......

Try deploying the dll with the exe.

Your code sample doesn't show what StringToSearch is, only that you want to check if it contains the string in TextBox1.Text.

You question is not very clear.

Yes. You can use bitwise operators to check for bit flags.

Bit Wise Operators

Bit Flag Enums

If you want an answer your going to need to supply more information...like perhaps what exactly the error message is.

High Five! Code like this will get you hacked.
holidaydate = "' OR '1' = '1;";
sql = "select * from Tb_Declared_Holidays where Holiday = '" + holidaydate + "'";

I just pasted your code in my win form and it loads the file names to the combobox perfectly. I don't see any ADO code so can't help you with your database issues. Can you show more code and explain better what you're trying to do?

What exactly is your question and why did you list this as VB.Net?

Why do you need to import the contents of a word file? Why not just put this in the RDLC to begin with?

you could always just add this to a column in your SQL query: GetDate() AS [CurrentDate]

...But why would you want to display the current date in a grid since the entire column would contain the same value?

To load BigInteger with a number larger than a long or double you will need to use a byte array. If you use the number class on the blog, you can just use a string like so:

Number myBigFatGreekNumber = new Number("3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592307816406");

If you need whole numbers you could use this.
If you need really large floating points you could use this.

Its not that clear what you want to do. If you are wanting to store what sizes are availble for a specific product you can use two tables. One for products and one to store the sizes as shown below:

Products(
ProductID,
Name
)

Sizes(
SizeID,
ProductID,
SizeCode
)

Check the updated solution.

Is txtSICCode a string pulled from someTextBox.Text, if not then the problem is that you are using the Contains from the TextBox object and it is looking through child controls not the text property value. See Solution 3.

How about you try building something and if you get stuck on a particular problem you can then ask a specific question and post your code.

It is best to let the DBMS increment the ID with IDENTITY(1,1). If you then need to return the identity of the newly inserted record you can use @@IDENTITY in your stored proc. Read more here.

Do you really need the formatting (bold, dd-MM-yyyy_hh-mm-ss, etc)? If not just write a CSV file.

Well....use a random number generation function such as: this[^] to generate the number.

Then set button colors thusly: button1.BackColor = myArrayOfPossibleColors[num];

and text values like so: button2.Content = num;

sounds like a homework assignment.

Its not that you can't get data via PDF its just going to be a very brittle solution and give you many headaches down the road especially whenever the document/data gets modified. I would investigate iText

So you are trying to read the data from the legacy system by converting what it sends to the printer to a PDF and then reading the PDF? That sounds ridiculous, What is the legacy system? Even screen scraping sounds like a better idea.

If possible, I would try to get the data from the legacy system before it goes to the printer and then create a PDF by either using RDLCs or some third party library like itextsharp.

If VB1-6 hadn't been around there would not be a VB.Net & C# would still be what it is today. VB.Net was created for the sole purpose of retaining the VB6 users. VB1-6 was a good product that fulfilled a need. It made rapid application development in businesses possible to a degree that no other platform did. When I first started coding in VB6 I loved it. It was easy to learn and I could quickly assemble fully functional applications. Anyway, C#, VB, C++, PHP, etc are all just a means to an end.

As SA explained above its totally hardware dependent. So the best you can do is to Google the name of your printer & PRN. If you need this to work for all printers you are looking at a near impossible feat, you might consider if there is a more reasonable way to accomplish whatever it is you are trying to accomplish. BTW what is the reason for your needing to read a PRN file in a form?

It's not clear to me what you're asking, but the main purpose of an interface is to allow for polymorphism.
Interfaces[^]

I totally agree. I started in VB6 and when .Net came along I spent about 3 months with VB.Net then dropped it for C# and haven't looked back. The IL maybe the same but C# is the more respected language perhaps because its stricter and because of VB6 bagage. I also prefer the less verbose language since I can scan the code quicker.

Doesn't Response.Redirect work? You could also use Server.Transfer.
http://www.developer.com/net/asp/article.php/3299641/ServerTransfer-Vs-ResponseRedirect.htm[^]

BTW your XML is invalid. You transposed </persons> & </person>

Why? To try to take over the world of course Pinky!

Nice. Thanks for the compiler tip, I didn't know that.

No worries. Sometimes it just takes another pair of eyes, ones that haven't been up all night staring at a text editor.

ok, lo siento, entonces, no se como ayaudarle, pero... si a menos algunos datos se recibe, Puede que tenga que traducir bytes, ya que es un puerto de serie.

Que significa: "con el hw"

Well, I can only guess from your error message, "...Interfaz no compatible...", that your XML (serialized object) doesn't match the interface of the object that's expected by the WS.

Is your XML formated properly?
SOAP

Why is there a 10,000 max?

Perhaps the service is expecting an XML serialized object. What if instead of sending the class you sent its XML representation. Such as:
"<idcard><usuario>CgUlDSJZvIc=</usuario><Password>/px5j+mfNBc=</Password></idcard>"

Why is this voted a 1? This is good code that answers the question. +5

Ok... The last I checked 8 + 12 is 20.

What is the error you are getting? You do know this code has nothing to do with Outlook, right?

Where is the textbox txtordertotal? From your image It looks like you are expecting to see this total a cell (row[3], Cell[3]), which of course your code is not doing.

Thanks SA. I was wondering the same thing.

Keep in mind multi-threading only speeds up processing if you have multiple CPUs.

Cool! I didn't know such a thing existed. +5

You are a very patient guy. +5

Well, actually I don't get your question. If you are not checking to see if the current time is Saturday at 7pm what are you checking?

"without using paging...", So you want to just show the top 10 and that's it?

You can't change the code behind without re-compiling, but you can change the .aspx page, its just text.

This looks like SPAM.

If it is a value type you will not be able to return null, but you can return the default value for that type.

Is CircleF a value type?

WOW! that is one heck of a for statement. Is there a particular reason you're using that syntax?

How about showing us your code?

Yes indeed. The one stop shopping destination for solving connection conundrums!

That's what lists are for.

You question isn't clear. Are you asking how to import an Excel file into an Access database?

Thanks, Correction made.

I think [this^] is what you're looking for.

You have to select it first:
app.ActiveWindow.Selection.TextRange.Select();

Read this.

So....
PowerPoint.Application app = slide.Application;

Really!?

When you say, "...doesn't run and go to the debug mode..." do you mean it is a compiled .exe you're running and it throws an un-handled error? If so I would say that is happening because you're trying to parse a non-integer string. You can account for this by int.TryParse or adding an error catch.

Of course not!
Why do the work himself when he can just post a question and get back completed code[^].

Excellent blog post. This looking for others to do the work for them without even trying to do it themselves is a phenomena that goes well beyond programming. It sadly seems to be a generation defining characteristic.

A billion dollhairs. That's awesome! Its amazing what some people will say to get someone to do their homework.

Grazie signore.

Thanks, that means a lot coming from you.

Ok if you want to update a property in each item in your list just iterate like so....
int rank = 1;
foreach(Student s in students.OrderByDescending(x =>x.EnglishGrade))
s.PositionInEnglish = rank++;

Are you then trying to sort by the combined GPA?

Why are you making your Trans_No a varchar instead of an int?

Assembly reference is irrelevant. The above CSS will add the picture to the background of any Input element, which is the HTML element output by the ASP Button object. You could and probably should use a class name to reference it instead though. I will update the solution so its more clear what you should do.

Are you looking to replace an id column of type uniqueidentifier with an id column of type integer? Or are you just talking about removing a column?

Then I would assume that the work performed by the background worker has been completed. How else could it move on to this.Close() unless the progressBar1.Value is set 1000 and all previous commands are completed. Are any of the method calls in backgroundWorker1_DoWork() asyncronous? Do you wish the form to linger for a moment to make sure the user can see the progress bar is set to 1000? If so add another sleep command before this.Close().

Even if you put it at the end of your code in backgroundWorker1_DoWork()?

So if you are returning data from the ajax call what does parameter id contain?

Is it possible that id.d.employee is giving you the undefined error? Are you sure you're getting back the data you expect from the ajax call?

Since SQL Substring() returns a varchar, nvarchar, text, ntext, varbinary or image why are you comparing it to the number 7? It would be easier to help you if you would state what you are trying to accomplish.

Perhaps you need a switch as in...

CALL "c:\rtdm_cutter.exe" /f 20121126_191613_09224_RTDM.BIN "2012/11/25 15:00:00" "2012/11/25 15:15:00" y

I don't know if the name of the switch for this particular app is /f but you should. If you don't then perhaps your app has a help feature, which is usually accessible by passing /h or ? as in....

CALL "c:\rtdm_cutter.exe" /h

It sounds like you might benefit from studing DOS. Read here and here.

Whether you add all common elements or not is a personal decision, but it wouldn't hurt to do so unless you might have other similar classes processed by this function in the future that wouldn't have those elements.

Often times interfaces are used to describe something a class should do, such as the .Net interface IEnumerable. You could change your interface to IRemovable and in that case it would seem highly appropriate to add only the methods and properties used by the RemUnwantedRows function to remove rows. You might even want to encapsulate the function itself into a base class that is inherited by the two classes.

It sounds like you'd be better off using a ComboBox rather than a TextBox. What happens when someone enters 'A', 'Word', '1' or '#$%&*'?

That's because you have no properties defined in your interface. It sounds like you could benefit from learning more about object oriented programming. Read here.

since the two classes are your creation, that makes it easy. You just inherit the common interface (ref as Igos in my solution) and pass the class type you want the function to process as shown in my previous comment.

I don't know what you mean by, "multiple ones for T". You just create classes that inherit the interface and pass the type thusly:

RemoveUnwantedRows<gosooeamount>(lstData)

If you are unable to inherit the interface because the classes are in an API you didn't create; you can either create your own derived class that inherits the gosooeamount and gosftepositions classes along with the interface or you can check which type the function is processing and cast it to that type. I suppose you could also use reflection but that's a lot of work.

I assumed your problem was retrieving the file contents eg. "the tapes by titles or subjects." If you don't know how to create an HTML form to search with read here and here. After the web service returns the tape titles you will then need to use javascript to load it to the UI.
