Hi,
What i need is a hyperlink object, only custom drawn. I know the size of the rectangle that i'm drawing, so i want to set the hyperlink's Activation Area to match its size. Any idea how to do that?

Hi,
I have tried to convert an C# sample program to VB.Net but was confronted with one problem. This sample describes adding controls dynamically to a placeholder and reading back their values after user clicks a button. You can see the whole C# source here.
I think I have managed to do all the other conversion but following snippet of C# code is problem.
(I have removed the comments)
XPathDocument surveyDoc = new XPathDocument(Server.MapPath("ExSurvey.xml"));
XPathNodeIterator itr = surveyDoc.CreateNavigator().Select("//question");
System.Text.StringBuilder sb;
sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
sb.Append("Survey submitted on " + DateTime.Now + Environment.NewLine);
while (itr.MoveNext()) {
string controlName = itr.Current.GetAttribute("name", "");
sb.Append(controlName);
sb.Append(" : ");
object ctrl = FindControl(controlName);
if (ctrl is TextBox) {
sb.Append(((TextBox)ctrl).Text);
}
if (ctrl is RadioButtonList) {
if (((RadioButtonList)ctrl).SelectedItem != null) {
sb.Append(((RadioButtonList)ctrl).SelectedItem.Value);
}
}
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
}
string body = sb.ToString();
This code returns the ID of the control and it's value in body . That's what I'm after.
My effort in translating this snippet was as follows:
Dim surveyDoc As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument(Server.MapPath("ExSurvey.xml"))
Dim itr As XPathNodeIterator = surveyDoc.CreateNavigator().Select("//question")
Dim sb As System.Text.StringBuilder
sb = New System.Text.StringBuilder()
sb.Append("Survey submitted on " + DateTime.Now + "<br>")
While (itr.MoveNext())
Dim controlName As String = itr.Current.GetAttribute("name", "")
sb.Append(controlName)
sb.Append(" : ")
Dim ctrl As Object = FindControl(controlName)
If (TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox) Then
Dim myTextBox As New TextBox()
myTextBox = ctrl
sb.Append(myTextBox.Text + "<br>")
End If
If (TypeOf ctrl Is RadioButtonList) Then
Dim myRadioButtonList As New TextBox()
myRadioButtonList = ctrl
If (Not myRadioButtonList.SelectedItem Is Nothing) Then
sb.Append(myRadioButtonList.SelectedItem.Value.ToString + "<br>")
End If
End If
sb.Append("<br>")
End While
Dim body As String = sb.ToString()
To my disappointment my body contains only the ID and the semicolon, not the value of the control.
If somebody is kind enough and tells to me what is wrong in my code, I would be ever grateful to that person. I know that is not much in this cyberworld but anyway...

It looks like where you are creating a new TextBox() which does not appear to be needed.
If TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox Then
sb.Append(CType(ctrl, TextBox).Text)
End If
If TypeOf ctrl Is RadioButtonList Then
If Not (CType(ctrl, RadioButtonList).SelectedItem Is Nothing) Then
sb.Append(CType(ctrl, RadioButtonList).SelectedItem.Value)
End If
End If
This should work

i am attempting to read in a byte stream which contains what used to be VB6 currency values, .NET does not have a currency type anymore, so im trying to figure out the easiest way to convert to the new decimal format.. anyone got any pointers they could throw my way?
thanks in advance for any suggestions
still a newb.. cut me some slack :P

The VB6 Currency is a 64-bit data type. Read it into a 64-bit integer (int64) and multiply it by 10,000. Let us know how this works for you.

What are the best online C++ tutorials for experienced VB developers who need to learn C++ fast? In other words, they need one that is both clear and concise. Yes, I know that may be a tall order!

You might get better results in the C++ forums since I don't think many VB programmers know C++!
OTH, I did it the hard way, through books

I've asked in both forums. I asked here as well, because I wanted to catch any VBers who've picked up C++ after VB.

OIC.
I started in C++ before doing VB6 and I've never had much luck with Online tutorials I prefered a good old fashioned Book instead.
If you're interested, you might want to try Deitel & Deitel's C++:How to Program. It's a good book for anyone starting C++

Yes, a book is better. There is one called C++ for VB Programmers or something. The reason I asked about tutorials is because I was looking for the fastest way of helping my friend achieve his objective. That is, originally his boss envisaged a 3-day timescale for the VB application. So presumably with the C++ version he would be looking for the minimum time - no more than a a couple of weeks or so.

That's one tall order!Maybe he could get one of the "learning in 24 hours" or "learning in 21 days" book. I haven't read those before, but if speed if what you need ......

Sorry, using these words in the same sentance with C++ does not compute
Seriosuly though, I learned from books and asking questions like most VB programmers did. I also took a lot of heat from C++ folks

I am primarily a C++ developer myself but I'm aware of its shortcomings on the clarity front.
Eiffel has equivalent power to C++ while adopting the VB philosophy of readability.

I'm writing an activex Control in VC++ to be deployed with VC++, VB and VBScript. The problem that i encouters is the following :
I writed a function in the Activex Code which takes as arguments a VARIANT FAR * which is a SAFEARRAY, in this function i should be able to read all variable Contents usibg SAFEARRAYs methods. With VC++, everything go allright. With VB, i just write the following code :
...
dim Lst as variant
redim Lst(2)
Lst(0) = 1
Lst(1) = 2
Result = MyActivex.Function1(Lst)
...
When debugging this program within the VC Activex Code, i notice that the the Lst parameter don't seems to have the good values, it contains another values. What should i do to pass an array in my Activex Function...
I need Your Help.

Hi Every body
I want to use VB object printer to print some informations exactly at a position (x, y) on paper.
I understand each printer has its own idea of what the printable area of the paper is.
Therefore i use Windows API to check left and top margin before sending data to printer.
I retrieve theses informations like this :
MarginLeft = GetDeviceCaps(Printer.hdc, PHYSICALOFFSETX)
MarginTop = GetDeviceCaps(Printer.hdc, PHYSICALOFFSETY)
With my own printer MarginLeft = 42 pixels ( 2.96666 mm ) idem for MarginTop
Now, i tried to print a dot (.) at position (0,0) like this, just to check:
Printer.CurrentX=0
Printer.CurrentY=0
Printer.print "."
On my paper (A4) i obtain this result with ruler : Left Margin = 2.9666 mm (~ 3 mm) BUT Top margin ~ 6 mm.
I dont understand why Top margin is 6 mm insted of 3
Is there any way to know where come this more 3 mm ?
Is there any way to set to force printer Unprintable area ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Can anyone help me on how to add a new button in the control box (i.e. next to the minimize, maximize and close buttons)
I've been searching the web and couldn't get help and I could really need help here.
Thanks
Gil

That is not a place were users will expect to find an extra button. (At least not me). So my advice is, don't do it even if you can.

Has anyone had any problems with the licensing.
All I am trying to do is license a server control, it should be easy but the control can't find the license everytime. Even the most basic LicFileLicenseProvider does not work.
The steps I take
1) Decorate the class [LicenseProvider(typeof...
2) add the LicenseMangager.Validate in the constructor
3) add the MyNamespace.MyClass.lic file
4) Compile it
5) Run it
Any help appreciated

In the project folder of the application that uses your control, you should have a licenses.licx file. This file must be included in the project and it must contain a line identifying your control. If this is not the case, this is the reason of your problem.

I have the licenses.licx file in the folder, forgot to mention that.
There is something wierd happening that I am missing, and cant see what it is. The controls are for web based applications and after tracing it through it seems to be in the getLicense method which is called from Validate. have tried the basic LicFileLicenseProvider in both C# and VBNet without success. I am using Runtime 1.1
Thnx
