Seems you know what you are doing then.
I use HttpWebRequest a lot and never had such issues; I mostly use C# and .NET 2.0 though.
Maybe Google can tell you about some bug that got solved in 4.0?

I've tried to google that, but can't find anything ... Well, I'm just happy that my app now works It could be that this doesn't happen in .NET 2.0 ether
Anyway, thanks for helping

i want to open POS cash drawer , which is connected to the POS Printer.
i want to open cash drawer without Printing means without consuming Paper , Is it possible to send Null or any character to the printer that it will not consume paper and will open
Cash Drawer
Note: cash Drawer can not be connected to any Port i,e; COM etc.

Chr(0) is ASCII NULL you could also try Chr(8) which is a audio beep

Thanks for the reply
I tried chr(0) & Chr(8) both but it consumed paper , is there any why to move the Printer wheel/drum only but do not print anything

Chr(13) - carriage return. Used to be used to move printer head to left margin without feeding paper.
Don't know if it will work for your printer. Some printers had a DIP switch that could be set to allow them to interpret Chr(13) as Chr(13)+Chr(10) pair.
Or is it possible to just not send anything to the printer?

How are you sending the string to the printer? I would suggest that you would need a Write rather than a WriteLine command as a WriteLine with include a Carriage Return and Line Feed.

I think that is a back-space character... (7) is beep, if I remember right.

here is a shocking thought: the manufacturer could have hidden such information in some manual. Did you check?
|

wow, do manufacturers produce manual, sheesh, the next thing is they will be creating websites with forums, faq's and KB's....

It may very well require a series of codes to open the drawer. Have you tried this web site?

got any solution for this? i facing the same problem, i got the drawer code, but i duno how to implement it.
Cash Drawer code: 27, 112, 0, 100, 250

Best and fastest way to implement this contact the Manufacturer of printer and ask them to give SDK. after hectic effort i had got the SDK from the Manufacturer.

Hi everybody
I have been with this forum for sometime but this is the 1st time i post a question and is not sure if this the right place to start this question.
I am tinkering to build a vb.exe wherein it will communicate with a Pansonic PABX telephone system through a USB or Com port using the MSComm object. The objective here is to pick up the data coming from the PABX such as time of call, duration, destination number and costs of call plus sending out data to tell the various extension to ring at certain predetermined time or to bar the extension.
It is said that Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI) is a Microsoft Windows API, which provides computer telephony integration and enables PCs running Microsoft Windows to use telephone services can do do the job.
This being the first time i tinker into communication issues i am not sure if using the msComm is the right step. I feel that TAPI is a more complex way to go.
More importantly i am not sure what protocol the PABX will work on. My attempts to talk to Panasonic company on this had not been too fruitful.
Any pointers from members of this forum will much appreciated.

What is the model of the PABX?
I doubt TAPI is the way to go, that will be more for actually placing calls,sending fax's etc.
I would imagine it would use a serial protocol via a usb or DB-9/RS232 port.
This site ( http://www.pbxguru.com/[^] )makes reference to programming software etc. for panasonic exchanges, so it must be possible, hence the reason for asking the model.
The may use some strange non-standard protocol i.e. the actual message send and received by the unit, and it maybe is not in the public domain. and the port is used by their own software.
Until you provide the model, it would be difficult to determine how it is done.

Thanks Dave
The model was Panasonic KX-TD500, but the new version is now TDA200ML.
I am comfortable with rs232 port as i have tinkered with the comm1 object properties & events namely .portOpen, .commEvent & .input via the reference mscomm32.oca.
I have no actual experience communicating with a PABX. I need to understand the string to send to & from and all the properties / parameters in the system.
I had a look at your proposed link and was reading the "help" from the programmer application for KX-TD500 and just wondering if it can handle the new TDA200ML. Are you in any way related to the info@voicecallcentral.com?
Thanks again & waiting for further advice.

Hi,
I add a checkbox in a datagridview that is an unbound column. Onload it is an unchecked state, when I click on it, I get this error message Index -1 does not have a value. I am lost..
what i want to do is to able to check and uncheck the checkbox to do insert, delete current row selected...
Can anyone guide me please..
thanks advance

Then probably your row contains no (actual) data.
But why use a checkboxcolumn for this and not .SelectedItems ?

Hi Friends,
I am converting an excel to xml using vba. THere this excel data having &. But when converting & to xml it is giving error. So I am using the following funtion to replace &.
Function RemoveAmpersands(AnyStr As String) As String
Dim MyPos As Integer
' replace Ampersands (&) with plus symbols (+)
MyPos = InStr(1, AnyStr, "&")
Do While MyPos > 0
Mid(AnyStr, MyPos, 1) = "+"
MyPos = InStr(1, AnyStr, "&")
Loop
End
But the above function replacing with +. But I wanted to display in the browser as & only. Kindly Help.
Regards,
Priya.

HI
Thanks. I have not tried it ..let me try and reply
Thanks,

Hi,
& is not working. Its going into infinitely....Any other approach to implement this?
Thanks,
Priya.
|
|
|
|
|
Forgot how to use code blocks already?
Did you get your previous xml problem working in the end, didn't hear any more in the thread?

Hi Dave,
Thanks. I think you are talking abt the function i ve written..without returning that function..with function name..
I have that line in my code..since it is big code i just copy pasted only first part and end function missed to paste last to previus line.
Here is the function:
Function RemoveAmpersands(AnyStr As String) As String
Dim MyPos As Integer
' replace Ampersands (&) with plus symbols (+)
MyPos = InStr(1, AnyStr, "&")
Do While MyPos > 0
Mid(AnyStr, MyPos, 1) = "+"
MyPos = InStr(1, AnyStr, "&")
Loop
RemoveAmpersands = AnyStr
End Function
If you are trying to say something pls reply..
Thanks
Priya

Your code replaces all the ampersands (&) in a string with plus (+) which is what you say you want to do.
Then you say:
priyaahh wrote: But the above function replacing with +. But I wanted to display in the browser as & only.
...so, what exactly do want to achieve?
BTW this would do the same thing in one line.
Dim newStr As String = AnyStr.Replace("&", "+")
