Hi
I am looking for a way, to add another shortcut to Windows.
Ctrl-C does copy to clipboard
Ctrl-V does paste from the clipboard
I am looking to add another shortcut - e.g Ctrl-W - that will do the following:
1 - get the last entry from the clipboard
2 - add CRLF
3 - append to it the selected text
4 - copy it back to the clipboard
I am not a Windows developer. I only know VBA.
can someone help on this issue? I saw many posts on the web asking for COPY-APPEND to the clipboard but could not find any solution.
Actually I need it on IE only, But I saw that many are looking for this shortcut to be part of Windows.
Is it so complicated ?
many thanks for any help !!!

You can use Clipboard.Setdata while Pressing Key CTRL + W.
or Use Sendkeys({CTRL} + C ) while pressing CTRL + W key.
If you can think then I Can.

thanks for reply but I think I missed you.
Do I need to program it?
I would like to have this copy-append as part of windows. Not in my application.
link ctrl-c, ctr-v let us have ctrl-? to append what's selected to the last clipboard.
hope I am clear.
thanks again

In the key down event use the e argument to get the details of the key press combination
Then use your own suggestions
1 use the clipboard object to get the data into a var
2 clear the clipboard
3 add crlf to the var
4 add the selected text to the var
5 set the text into the clipboard object
6 informa the user it is ready for pasting.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Just wondering?
Are you still looking? The replies didn't quite enlighten me. I think one was talking about javascript, because of the usage of "var". Sure, you could do it with javascript, on a website... But what about OS-wide.
I don't know, does anyone have an answer, if not let's think about it!

I wrote a small program in vb.net that calls an external process.
I wanted to share this application between 40 users so I putted the content of the dir DEBUG (visual studio express 2008) into a shared folder and I used caspol to make it Trusted.
What I call in my app is an exe of a platform (PEBL) [http://pebl.sourceforge.net/battery.html] and I use it to execute some proprietary (PEBL) files.
What is STRANGE is this:
-if I share the same application on a shared dir and each client click on it executing the software I am not able to launch the external software for more than a single pc at time.
- IF I use a different publish for my vb.net application (that is, for K users, K different local(or remote) copies of my application, I am able to execute the same process contemporaneously
WHY THIS?
What I see is that if I use a single application shared on a common path [ for clear advantages of centralization] (example: just what you see in "debug" ] on a shared dir the process called does not allow for another client to execute the same external program. IS IT CORRECT? why should I use 40 different copies of my sw with 40 people?
IS IT CORRECT to share the same apps simply coping what includerd in debug?

Where is this sub being called from? It would appear that it's just setting some values for your checkboxes, it's not handling the on click event of any checkbox.
You would need something like
private sub chkbox2_click (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles chkbox2.Click
msgbox "you clicked checkbox 2"
end sub

hi there,
I am in a little trouble here. I have a database with employee names details etc.. and I also have a child sub table for their absence. what I want my program to do:
I have a list box that loads full employee names and selects the record
once I click on it I want it to display the info from a child sub table according to the name selected.
I already know how to write to the child sub table but do not know how to display it.
any help would be appreciated.
the code I have written so far fills up the list box with all absence disregarding individual record.
this is what I've written to insert the record into the child sub table. What I want is to display all the things that I add into the list box. some man suggested to have a look at "master-detail" on google but unfortunately the code is too complicated to be able to study it in short time. I need it ASAP as I cannot start doing another piece once this is sorted.
thanks to all people who help 
Holidays = txtholiday(0).Text
Sickness = txtSickness(0).Text
Off = txtOff(0).Text
Holidays1 = txtholiday(1).Text
Sickness1 = txtSickness(1).Text
Off1 = txtOff(1).Text
AbsenceID = txtid(0).Text
intDay = cboDays.Text
conConnection.Open
With cmdCommand
.ActiveConnection = conConnection
.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM tblmain WHERE fullname = '" & fullname & "';"
.CommandType = adCmdText
End With
With rstRecordSet
.CursorType = adOpenStatic
.CursorLocation = adUseClient
.LockType = adLockOptimistic
.Open cmdCommand
End With
With cmdCommand
.ActiveConnection = conConnection
.CommandText = "INSERT into tblAbsence (AbsenceID, Holidays, Sickness, Off, Holidays1, Sickness1, Off1, DaysTaken) Values ('" & AbsenceID & "', '" & Holidays & "', '" & Sickness & "', '" & Off & "', '" & Holidays1 & "', '" & Sickness1 & "', '" & Off1 & "', '" & intDay & "')"

My Response
Check out the <code>String.ToUpper()</code> and <code>String.ToLower()</code> methods, you can use <code>Radioboxes</code> for the selection,
and read your class book before bringing homework here.
The OP first asked how to make a string either all upper or all lower case based off user selection, which is why the above post exists here. Don't want you guys thinking I posted random garble 
See post below for response to *current* thread.

So you just want to flip each case?
Way to change the requirements after I answer your other post.
It usually goes against me to do someone's homework for them, and after I posted my other reply I initially had regret, going against my common practice.
This time I stick to it, go read your book or you will fail your course.

Easy. Convert to ASCII, XOR all letters with 0x20, convert back to Unicode. 
Now what should happen with some specials, such as the trademark and registered signs?

Need to be able to specify a month, date, and year for a db record and use the data later to produce results based on monthly/yearly production. New to programming, have read a bit about date functions and I see a couple different ways I could go about this. Was wondering if anyone wants to steer me to the easiest, or most efficient method of going about designing the logic.
Example
Loan office has loans working, or closed. Want to be able to generate monthly/yearly projected and closed figures.
What is the best way for me to work with the dates involved?
Thanks in advance for the advice.
|
|
|
|
|
I'd store the date information in the database as Dates. You can generate reports between any two dates you want.
Or are you asking how to get the date information from the user?? Perhaps the DatePicker control in the ToolBox?
Your question is pretty vague so it's difficult to come up with a proper answer.
|
|
|
|
|
Very vague, I understand and apologize. My only concern with simply storing the info as date in the db is that I want the program to upon loading, select certain records, say for the current month or current year, and perform some basic mathematical calculations etc. So with my extremely limited programming knowledge, I guess I am not sure how I could go about pulling say 3 of 10 records based on the current month I am in or current year etc. Does that help or only make only more vague =]
|
|
|
|
|
It barely helps, but you're just retrieve records for the current month quite easily. Code the SQL query to retrieve records between two dates. You first generate a date using the current month and year, just adding the 1st of the month to create something like 5/1/2009. Your second date would be todays date. Then use those as the bounds for the query and retrieve youre records. You can even do some of the math in the query if need be.
But, if you're new to programming, I would seriously pickup a beginners book on VB.NET before going forward with this project. The .NET Framework is pretty huge and there's a lot to learn that can make it much easier to code your app instead of guessing at things.

Hi all
in VFP, When I begin to work with a project, I create control that is a subclass of it is baseclass, then I code what I want to this subclass, then I drag it and put it on the form. and I use this subclass in all my forms later on.
Now to make that in vb.net I found the UserControl is the closet control to do what I want.
Q1: Is UserControl is the right direction to achieve what I want?
I have did some tests on UserControl and I have these questions
1- Why it gives warning in 'Me.Version = "1.0"
2- Why it gives warning and my vb crashes and could not be restarted unless I close all vb IDE's in Version = value
3- Should I assign a new variable (m_version) for each property I want to add? Cannot I work directly with property?
4- When I drag the control to my form, I notice that the control (Textbox) (width and height) are not expanded to take the the Length and Height of the Usercontrol. Should I handle that manually?
5- I have included many code in the Get, so I would like to know what is the best I should use.
Public Class UserControl1 ' I add Textbox
Dim m_Version
Property Version()
Get
'Version = "1.0" ' Worked Fine
'Me.Version = "1.0" ' Warning 3 Property 'Version' doesn't return a value on all code paths. A null reference exception could occur at run time when the result is used.
'Return "1.0" ' Worked Fine
Return m_Version ' Worked Fine
End Get
Set(ByVal value)
m_Version = value ' Works Fine
'Version = value ' Warning 3 Expression recursively calls the containing property 'Version'.
End Set
End Property
End Class
TIA

Case sensativity, Version is a property and you're using it as a variable, so Version = value wouldn't work, I'm assuming your Version property is referencing m_Version, a private variable that the property Version reflects on.
Samir Ibrahim wrote: 'Me.Version = "1.0" ' Warning 3 Property 'Version' doesn't return a value on all code paths.
will not work, nor should it, you should use
Return m_Version
which is your private variable
Consider the property Version as an interface to your m_Version variable, you do not change the Property but merely what the Property reflects.
