ok so what i did was create the currentrecord variable to keep track of exactly that, the record that is currently open. But how does it find each record? Well...
Dim Records() as string = file.readalllines("c\example")
This line makes a new array of strings (without affecting the contents of the original file), if your not sure what that is, best to google it, but i will explain breify. An array creates an indexed list from a given source that can be quickly an easily accessed.
For Instance, when we did the above line, the array would be visually represented like this.
Records(0) = aaa 333<br />
Records(1) = bbb 444<br />
Records(2) = ccc 555<br />
Records(3) = ddd 888<br />
Records(4) = ggg 111
Notice how the indexing starts at zero. Therefore there is the last item in the list (the fifth) has an index of four.
The Records.length gives us the total amount of items in the list. So...because each item has an index of one less than the amount it is, the last item has the index (records.length - 1).
So. Say for instance our current record is 4 (ggg 111). When we use the line you asked about it will check if this is less than the final item, and will do the appropriate action. However because it is the final item it will do nothing, as trying to display one more than this would result in an IndexOutOfBoundsException meaning that there is no such item.
If you veiw the statement in full, you see that by the time we get to line 3, the current record integer is equal to 5, which won't work. If an item with the specified index does exist than this is what we call 'within bounds'.
1 if currentrecord < (records.length - 1) then<br />
2 currentrecord +=1<br />
3 me.displaytextbox.text = records(currentrecord)<br />
4 end if
The if statements are basically error prevention, they stop your program crashing when there is no data where you are asking for it.

Can I limit the options in the 'Export button' of the Report Viewer? How?
Instead of having 'Excel and PDF' in the option, I want it just 'PDF' for the user to save on PDF format only.
OR...
If the 'Export button' is clicked, it will automatically save in the PDF format only after providing the desired filename.

You can configure the available rendering extensions in your rsreportserver.config file. You can find this in the ReportServer folder where Reporting Services is installed. Change the Extension nodes under the Render section.

Is there a way to change the highlight color of a selected item in a treeview? I've created a mouse hook so that when the mouse is over the treeview, the item the mouse is over is hightlighted, but the is highlightd in gray. I like it highlighted with the system's highlight color.

I have in my application a subroutine that opens a browse folder so that the user can browse to a specific directory, and load that into a text box. The code is like this:
...
Set shlShell = New shell32.Shell<br />
<br />
Set shlFolder = shlShell.BrowseForFolder(Me.hWnd, "Select a Folder", BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIR)<br />
<br />
textbox_txt.SetFocus<br />
textbox_txt.Text = shlFolder.Items.Item.Path 'places path into text box
Now, my problem is not when the user browses to a path and clicks OK, that returns the path of the directory fine. What the issue is, when the user clicks CANCEL, I get an error: runtime error '91' Object variable or With block not set. Any ideas on how I should handle this? Thanks.

Assuming you are using VB.Net
You need to test the existence of shlFolder
If Not IsNothing(shlFolder) Then
process files
End If
However, you should really be using the .net directory and file info classes to achieve this with a directory browser dialog or openfile dialog!

Hello,
I have a dll that uses a webreference to a client's webservice. On my pc this works correctly. When i try to move the dll to our webservice and try to do a createobject to it via an asp page, I get the following error:
Failure in connecting to xxxxxxxxxxxx: System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1). error CS2001: Source file 'C:\WINNT\TEMP\b6vvurwf.0.cs' could not be found error CS2008: No inputs specified at System.Xml.Serialization.Compiler.Compile(Assembly parent, String ns, XmlSerializerCompilerParameters xmlParameters, Evidence evidence) at System.Xml.Serialization.TempAssembly.GenerateAssembly(XmlMapping[] xmlMappings, Type[] types, String defaultNamespace, Evidence evidence, XmlSerializerCompilerParameters parameters, Assembly assembly, Hashtable assemblies) at System.Xml.Serialization.TempAssembly..ctor(XmlMapping[] xmlMappings, Type[] types, String defaultNamespace, String location, Evidence evidence) at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.FromMappings(XmlMapping[] mappings, Type type) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapClientType..ctor(Type type) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol..ctor() at RFxxxxxxxxxxx.com.xxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxxService..ctor() at RFxxxxxxxxxxx.Connect.HandShake(String sUserID, String sPW)
Anyone seen this error and how do you deploy a dll that has a webreference?
There are 4 files when compiled: dll, tlb, xml, config. I put all of those in the same directory on the server and registered the dll file. so I think all supporting files are there on the server...
Thanks,
Nathan

I've been trying to find an easy-to-understand format for documenting our group policy settings. I want to document not just the policies and the OUs that link to them, but the actual settings within the policies.
Can you guys suggest me a good script or help me to make a vb.net application for the same which can give me detailed information on the forest-wide group policy configuration.

There is no Multi Line Comment support in VB.NET as yet but hopefully in the future you have to select all the code which you want to comment and then use the Comment button in IDE.
Hope it helps !

Hi, IMO the best way to learn a new language is to buy a book and work your way through it.
That way you will get all the essentials in a short time, both explained and illustrated.

No but there is an easy way to comment and uncomment blocks of code. Just highlight the code and press the toolbar item that does that and it will put ' infront of all the lines of code you highlighted. Same goes if you want to uncomment a block of code.

i am thinking about the reason behind it but i can't find the answer if some body knows then please tell me.

Entirely depends on your requirements did you search Code Project first for this and then Google because it gonna take allot of your time.
eyes2007 wrote: why should microsoft has to make two different controls like checklistbox and listbox.
Because both of these controls are for different requirements and one has advantage over the other e.g. you can't bind data to the CheckedListBox control for this you have to use either ComboBox or Listbox and also not support for Multi Selection whereas in ListBox Control you can't display a Checkbox besides every item.
Hope it helps !

Hello
I'm trying to communicate with an application written in C++ that receives windows messages. The problem is that i need to pass a pointer to a structure from VB.
In C++ the code to send a message looks like this (works fine)
BOOL bRC = false;
COPYDATASTRUCT cpd;
cpd.dwData = MESSAGE_1;
cpd.cbData = 0;
cpd.lpData = 0;
bRC = ::SendMessage(m_hServer, WM_COPYDATA, (WPARAM)NULL, (LPARAM)&cpd);
I've tried using marshaling this way in VB but doesn't work:
Dim bo As Boolean
Dim data As CopyData
data.dwData = MESSAGE_1
data.cbData = IntPtr.Zero
data.lpData = IntPtr.Zero
Dim ptr As IntPtr
ptr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(data))
Marshal.StructureToPtr(data, ptr, False)
bo= SendMessage(server, WM_COPYDATA, IntPtr.Zero, ptr)
Any ideas? thank you.

How can I make the system sleep for a while so that in the meanwhile my files get populated with some data and after that I can access the file for processing. Is there any way in vb.net or I have to call some API functions ?
Thanks in Advance.

System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) '1000 Milli Second delay
Or you can use a different thread to do the population of the files.
Private Sub PopulateFiles<br />
.....<br />
End Sub
Use the lines below in one of your Procedures, which then calls the PopulateFiles procedure on a new thread.
Dim thPopulateFiles As New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf PopulateFiles)<br />
thPopulateFiles.Start()<br />
It can be tricky if you access the file before the new thread has finished executing - maybe look at Thread.Join as well.
