Thanks for the links.
I will check it out right now.
this is my signature for forums quoted from shog*9:

i am trying to display multi page .tiff file into a pic box. so i have a next button to go to the next page. so far i got this
Dim objImage As System.Drawing.Image = objImage.FromFile("C:\Projects\FaxView\appraisal.tif")
Dim objGuid As Guid
objGuid = (objImage.FrameDimensionsList(0))
Dim objDimension As System.Drawing.Imaging.FrameDimension = New System.Drawing.Imaging.FrameDimension(objGuid)
Dim objBmp As System.Drawing.Bitmap
With objBmp
.FromFile("C:\Projects\FaxView\multipage.tif")
.GetFrameCount(objDimension)
.SelectActiveFrame(objDimension, 1)
End With
it is giving me error: object is not set to object reference at .GetFramecount(objDimension)
any idea why it is saying that? thanks for your ehlp.

Ok, I've managed to use the AxMediaPlayer to display my video. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no help or documentation on the methods and properties for the media player. I want to disply the real time frames and/or time as the video is playing. This can be done by displaying the AxMediaPlayer1.CurrentPosition. What I need to figure out is how to update the display as the video is playing. Is this through an event, or do I update the display everytime the AxMediaPlayer1.CurrentPosition is changed? I'm not sure what is the best way to try and do this.

Ok. I'm a C++ programmer (with a little VB6 experience) that's recently started using VB.NET quite a bit. I have to ask this even though I feel pretty certain that I don't have to worry about it... but I'm not sure just how large the changes are from VB to VB.NET so here we go...
In VB.NET, if I use multiple Timer objects (the new one, not the Forms one) so I can have different times, is there any chance the timers could fire at the same time? Ie, VB.NET is still basically a single threaded application, right? Each run of a fired timer event will NOT be treated as a thread...? I'm just making sure. I'm thinking of doing something a certain way and some of the resources used in each timer are shared so I can't have them stepping on each other. Would another timer fire off while another one is running? Can I stop that behavior (if it exists) with some sort of locking mechanism like a Mutex in C++?

Are you talking about the System.threading.Timer?
If so, you should have a look at the MSDN regarding them. I just read this.
Use a TimerCallback delegate to specify the methods associated with a Timer. The methods do not execute in the thread that created the timer; they execute in a separate thread that is automatically allocated by the system
If you're talking about the System.Timers.Timer then you're also in trouble
Note The event-handling method may be called even after the Stop method is called. The event-handling method may run on one thread at the same time that a call to the Stop method runs on another thread. This might result in the Elapsed event being raised even after the Stop method is called. To prevent this, use the SignalTime property to compare the time the event was raised to the time the Stop method was called. If the event was raised after the Stop method was called, do not process the event.

HI,
In my system, MyNetworkPlaces-> I have few network folders shared for me.
when I click those to view, it prompts the dialogbox to connect to that folder. If I give username and passwork it connects.
so now in my VB.net application, I am asking user to select the network folder, by showing Browse for folder dialog box. The thing is when user selects, any network folder I want to know whether it is connected or not, if not I need to prompt the dialogbox with username and password fileds for connecting to it. so How can I achieve this using vb.net? and what class I need to use for connecting to network folder? I am really struggling for this. Please help me as soon as possible.
For ex:
I want to connect to \\machine1\somefolder
or \\machine2\somefolder, when user selects this folder I need to know whether is it accessinble for user machine, if no i need to prompt the dialog box to connect with username and password as windows shows.
Thanking you
Regards
Praveen P

Well, I am not sure but I am thinking that no matter how you select that Share, it will prompt you for a User / Password, so you may not have to handle that in your App.

Ok, I understand that the NetServerEnum API functions do not work on a Win9x machine. In VB6, I had code to enumerate Servers on a Windows9x machine, however, porting it to VB.NET seems impossible. I have it working...somewhat. However, it only enumerates the Top-Level Node everytime!
If someone could please shed some light on what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it! This was all guess-work on my part even though I understand Marshalling a little bit.
Here's what I have so far:

Hi
I'm writing COM add-in to MsProject2000. The problem is that using Project object I cannot change cursor that appear in MsProject app. I tried to change the cursor by WinAPI calls but I failed. Is this possible to change cursor in MsProject by executing some code from my add-in?

I am using .NET Remoting to access a Class Library that I created in VB.NET. This class library contains a reference to a COM + component that is used by several functions. I am able to get the Remoting to work for most functions but as soon as I try and call a function that is using the COM + component the app freezes. I don't get any error messages, it just seems to hang. Is there something I need to do in order to use a COM + component when Remoting?

Nope. It's handled by the file system.

If you mean a "springy" form resizing tool, there is much code out there, and several tools as well ...
Here is a google search[^] for you. And in VB.NET, the forms can be layed out to do just that.

windows 9x/NT does not support netapi32.dll.
can anyone let me know on how to use netserverenum on these OSs or should i use any other api.
Kindly help.
Thanks in advance.

well that's absolutely right.
So is there anything that i can do to find the list of SQl servers in the network on these OSs.
Thanks.

You could try opening up a TCP/IP Socket on the standard SQL Server port (1433) on each machine you find to see if you can connect...or try to open a named pipe to the machine ("\\.\pipe\sql\query" or "\\.\pipe\MSSQL$instancename\sql\query")...if they succeed, it's probably an SQL server ;o)

Yes, there is a way to Enumerate Servers on Win9x. However, I can't get the Code I have to work just right in VB.NET. If someone out there can help on this it would be great!!! The only thing it does is it keeps recusing the Top-Level Network Node (i.e. "Microsoft Windows Network" for me).
