Need some direction; through vb.net can you use DDE links directly? I know that they are used in Excel. Where can I go to get information on working with FIX/API? Can you use Active-X controls in vb.net? Just a web site or book. Thank You

No. There is no support for DDE in the .NET Framework. YOu'll have to P/Invoke the appropriate Win32 functions to use DDE.

Google search results[^].
machman1 wrote: Can you use Active-X controls in vb.net
Yes. Just add it to the ToolBox. Right click in the ToolBox, then pick Add/Remove Items... Find your ActiveX control on the COM tab and you'll be all set to drop it on your form.

Hi.
is there anyway I can track when user opens a file? I don't need to know creation, modification, and deletion because I'm already using FileSystemWatcher for that. I used LastAccess filter but it seems doesn't work or maybe it does but I cannot see it. All I need to know that user opened the file and let's say reads it.
My program writes all events to the flat file so I can see all events raised.
Thank you in advanced.
Alex.

There is no event for this. You'd have to hook the file system, just like FileMon does.

g = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)
g.TranslateTransform(pb.Width / 2, pb.Height / 2)
g.DrawEllipse(New Pen(color.MediumTurquoise, 1), 0, 0, 2, 2)
g.DrawRectangle(New Pen(color.FromArgb(0, 0, 0)), 0, 0, 100, 100)
g.DrawEllipse(New Pen(Color.Red, 1), 0, 0, 100, 100)
cntnr = g.BeginContainer(rect1, rect2, GraphicsUnit.Pixel)
g.TranslateTransform(20, 20)
g.Clear(BackColor)
g.DrawRectangle(New Pen(Color.FromArgb(255, 255, 255)), 0, 0, 100, 100)
g.EndContainer(cntnr)
g.DrawLine(New Pen(Color.Blue, 1), 0, 0, 200, 200)
I am confused by losing all of my scratches before the "BeginContainer" because of the "Clear(BackColor)",why?

Hi,
Ich suche nun schon eine längere Zeit, um den aktiven Node eines Windows Clusters auszulesen. Ein Scope zum WMI Objekt konnte ich öffnen, nur kann ich die entsprechenden Informationen nicht auslesen.
Dim clustName As New String("myCluster")
Dim clustGrpRes As New String("myResGrp")
Dim conOpt As New ConnectionOptions
conOpt.Username = "domain\myUsrName"
conOpt.Password = "myPassword"
Dim mgmScope As ManagementScope
Dim mgmPath As ManagementPath
Dim mgmObj As ManagementObject
mgmScope = New ManagementScope("\\" & clustName & "\root\mscluster", conOpt)
mgmPath = New ManagementPath("MSCluster_ResourceGroup.Name='" & clustGrpRes & "'")
mgmObj = New ManagementObject(mgmScope, mgmPath, Nothing)
OS auf dem die Applikation ausgeführt wird: Windows Server 2k3 Standard Edition
OS des Clusters: Win Server 2k3 Enterprise Edition
Kennst Du eine Möglichkeit, wie ich an die benötigten Informationen gelange?
Danke für Deine Bemühungen

You do realize this is an English speaking board, right?

I look for a longer time now already, in order to select the active Node of a Windows cluster. A Scope to the WMI I could open object, only I cannot pick the appropriate information out.
Dim clustName As New String("myCluster")
Dim clustGrpRes As New String("myResGrp")
Dim conOpt As New ConnectionOptions
conOpt.Username = "domain\myUsrName"
conOpt.Password = "myPassword"
Dim mgmScope As ManagementScope
Dim mgmPath As ManagementPath
Dim mgmObj As ManagementObject
mgmScope = New ManagementScope("\\" & clustName & "\root\mscluster", conOpt)
mgmPath = New ManagementPath("MSCluster_ResourceGroup.Name='" & clustGrpRes & "'")
mgmObj = New ManagementObject(mgmScope, mgmPath, Nothing)
OS on that is implemented the application: Windows Server 2k3 Standard Edition
OS of the cluster: Win Server 2k3 Enterprise Edition
Do you know a possibility, how I arrive at the necessary information?
Thanks for your efforts
----------------------------8<----------------------------
I don't have a cluster to test on but you might be looking to execute a WMI query like:
SELECT Status From MSCluster_ResourceGroup WHERE Name='clusterGroup'

In an MDI program, how can I share a variable across all the forms that make up the MDI. ie. form1 sets user name, but form2 uses user name to set location. I am using VB 2003.
|
|

|
|
Easiest way is to add Module as we do in vb6 and declare your variables there.
|
|
|
|
|
Better way. Create a class that holds your "global" variables and declare them Public Shared.

Hi Dave, congrats on the MVP nod.
just a quick related question. i've read in places that declaring public properties in your forms is bad practice. i read this after having already implemented this in an mdi project of my own. any idea on why this technique is a bad idea? this is actually how i implement the above situation i.e. our user logs into the application then i expose a "User" property from my main form for use throughout the application. i've never had any problems with this technique and was just curious.

It is always a good idea to separate your GUI from your business objects (in this case user would be one). Think OOP it gives you more flexibility.
Think if you had a project that was done in windows forms and you got a new requirement to create a web front end. If you create global variables in your forms you will have to duplicate this logic in your web page. If this was a class in an external dll (which all business objects should be in a separate project) , all you would have to do is reference the dll in the web project and the functonality is there.
Hope this helps.

Thanks!
Mr's right, at least as far as I can figure out. I've never seen any documentation that says, definitively, that it's bad practice. Just, like here, everyone saying it's taboo. The most reasonable explanation that I could come up with was business logic.
Keep the form-related, visual UI stuff, in the form code and the application logic in seperate classes. This would include "global" variables that you need to share between MDI documents. I've always just created a class or two that did nothing but hold my "global" stuff, complete with Property wrappers. It actually makes it easier to track whats going on too. You don't have to go to multiple forms to find out "where on earth did I declare this crap!?"

I had written some fairly decent code in VB.NET 2003 to print out a listing of my video and recipe collections. Multiple pages, columns, small pictures etc. I imported the VB2003 programs into VB Express and although the main body of the programs worked quite well, the print routines just FROZE up everything. There were no compiling errors or runtime errors. I had to Cntl/Alt/Del to unlock everything. Any ideas of what is wrong?
Thanks

Put a breakpoint at the start of the Printpage() event and trace through until it freezes?
Or but trace.writeline code in the app to see what is going on?
(Without looking at the code I can't be any more helpful, sorry)

hi,
I have developed a VB.net project in 800 X 600 resolution.
Now i deployed in a computer which is having 1024 x 768 Resolution.
It is not covering whole screen and looking bad.
any process by which it will adjust automatically....by the screen resolution.
cheers

Nope. You have to resize your form to fit, if needed. You're form also has to be designed to compensate for varying sizes. This means anchoring controls so they stay in the spots you want them and can resize themselves accordingly. Check out the Archor property, among othet things, of just about every visual control in your form.

What is the way to check for EndOfStream while using a Binary Reader ? StreamReader has the EndOfStream Property, but there seems to be no equivalent Property in BinaryReader. I am using BinaryReader because I am dealing with Byte Arrays, and sadly, StreamReader seems to insit on reading Character Arrays. And, the Stream I am reading doesn't support Seeking, so we cannot check if the Position Property is equal to the Length...
I googled for it, but can't seem to find anything. Any help people ?

That's what it was designed to do! From the MSDN docs on StreamReader:
StreamReader Class
Implements a TextReader that reads characters from a byte stream in a particular encoding.
As for the BinaryReader[^], you're looking for it's <a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.binaryreader.peekchar.aspx" rel="nofollow">PeekChar</a>[<a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.binaryreader.peekchar.aspx" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="New Window">^</a>] method.

Hello there,
I found a wayout to check for the end of stream.
<br />
using (BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(fs))<br />
{<br />
while(fs.Position<fs.Length)<br />
{<br />
}<br />
}<br />
...assuming that "fs" is defined as the FileStream in the outer block.
Hope this works...
