Find out for yourself. Google for "Active Reports"[^] and then go to BusinessObjects[^] and look up Crystal Reports.

Both can be used in your .NET app.

hi,
i think either font is not installed on your system or you does not change the font of fields(which relete to arabic language).If font is installed on your system, then on report select field which is related to arabic language and then changes its font from properties window.

Hope this helps

i was trying to write the following code.i think i am missing some framework base class to import.
dim key as Microsoft.win32.registrykeys =registry.localmachine
Now the problem is
where the registry.localmachine resides ?

are you talking about the registry itself or the .net framework?

it resides on your source code!! Confused | :confused:

if you are not sure about the namespace, then the answer is in your question: Microsoft.Win32
but if you are not sure about the registry key, the answer is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

to find this out, just type the command - regedit in the command prompt.

you can also use functions like OpenSubKey(), SetValue(), GetValue() etc... if you require.

methods to encrypt and decrypt simple string

22-Jun-07 3:47

You're missing an Import at the top of your code:

Imports Microsoft.Win32
.
.
.
    Dim key As RegistryKey = Registry.LocalMachine

Hi!

I have a exe file which when run downloads a number of files via webclient.downloadfile() method. Now by default its going in the same directory where this exe resides. I would like to point the files that are being downloaded to another server. could someone help

thanks

This depends on how your web service works. Do you get to supply the filename and/or full path to where the file gets stored? If not, you'll have to put up with the file getting downloaded to its current location, the you'll have to copy it to your server location when the download is complete.

Thanks for the reply. i figured out myself i just have to place the folder location before the filename. Its not really a web service. I get list of foldername/filename as a database record and i loop through each of the record and download them. now another problem i am facing is. sometime i get 404 exception and it just stops. how could i skip the file if its not found.

codes:
Private Sub btnDownloadImages_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDownloadImages.Click
Dim myDAL As New clsDAL
Dim dr As DataRow
Try
Dim dt As DataTable = myDAL.getImages()

If (Not dt Is Nothing) Then
For Each dr In dt.Rows
ProcessImageNames(dr("Art_Image_file_URL_stem"))
Next
End If

Catch ee As Exception
Throw ee
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub ProcessImageNames(ByVal strFileName As String)
try

Dim myStringWebResource As String = Nothing
' Create a new WebClient instance.
Dim myWebClient As New WebClient
' Concatenate the domain with the Web resource filename. Because DownloadFile
'requires a fully qualified resource name, concatenate the domain with the Web resource file name.

myStringWebResource = remoteUri + fileName
'Console.WriteLine("Downloading File ""{0}"" from ""{1}"" ......." + ControlChars.Cr + ControlChars.Cr, fileName, myStringWebResource)
' The DownloadFile() method downloads the Web resource and saves it into the current file-system folder.

myWebClient.DownloadFile(myStringWebResource, "c:\images\" + fileName)

Catch ee As Exception
Throw ee
Finally
Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
End Try
End Sub

---

thanks in advance.

VB 2003 or 2005 Aol Instant Messanger

I am not a big fan of the AOL Instant Messanger Software. I have been using Pidgen/Gaim for a while now, and there nice, but I would really like to make my own AIM client with VB.net 2003.

I have tried Fluent.TOC, however, when I use the toc.SignOn() method, the program hangs. I am certain that the screen name and password are right, as they work correctly when logging in in Gaim.

(I am a fairly experienced VB.net programmer, but haven't used these boards before - i created my account to look at and download articles.)
