When i printing raw data from Laser jet i got this error.
How could i control which printers can print raw data , before to show printer list will be print documant

ERROR :
A call to PInvoke function 'RawPrinterHelper::OpenPrinter' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.

The error means precisely what it said. You got the Declare statement wrong when you declared the parameters for the OpenPrinter function call.

You have to make a new Font:

Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click

  Dim oldFont As Font = TextBox1.Font

  'Make a new font (12.0! is the size)
  'Here i did it with the font family and style of the old one
  'So only the size get's changed
  Dim newFont As New Font(oldFont.Family, 12.0!, oldFont.Style)

  'Give the textbox the new font
  TextBox1.Font = newFont

  'Dispose of the old font for memory
  oldFont.Dispose()

End Sub

HTH!

Either Google for it or have someone write it for you at RentACoder.com. Noone here is going to write it for you.

The .NET Framework doesn't have anything that will do this for you.

You either have to have an understanding of how Windows interacts with devices and write the enumeration code yourself, P/Invoking the required functions.

Or, use WMI to to enumerate through the devices. You're looking for objects of the WMI class Win32_USBControlerDevice. Google that class name for examples.

The method you choose depends on the what you want to do after you enumerate the devices.

Look at the three articles written by Tom John here on CP about treeview controls. His first on persisting treeviews should answer your question.

Do or not do. There is no try.

Looping through a string array

j45mw23-Dec-05 12:22

23-Dec-05 12:22

Can someone tell me how to loop through a string array using a FOR..NEXT or DO UNTIL loop?

Public Sub Update(ByVal Product_Category As String, ByVal Percentage As Decimal, ByVal ParamArray Location_Codes() As String)

End sub

The above is my subroutine and I want to loop through the ParamArray Location_Codes(). So that I can then run some additional code for each item in that array.

Kinda like this:

For each XXXX in Location_codes()
Make some decisions
Next

Can this be done?

Thanks

You can loop through using the Chars method:

Dim thisstring As String = "abc"
For i As Integer = 0 To thisstring.Length
MsgBox(thisstring.Chars(i))
Next

In VB 2005, you can omit the ".Chars":
For i As Integer = 0 To thisstring.Length
MsgBox(thisstring(i))
Next
