Re: about Parallel Port Programming???

25-Jan-06 2:54

From a motor to an LED... There's nothing simple about it, no matter what you do. The parallel port hardware is completely abstracted from your code. You MUST have a Ring 0 .DLL to get to the hardware FOR your code.

You can find an example at http://www.logix4u.net/[^]. Be be warned, you STILL have to do your own research to get any example to work. Trial and error is the best teacher.

For the hardware connection to the parallel ports and some sample code in C, see this website:

http://www.phanderson.com

About half way down the page are some books/workbooks he wrote about connecting hardware motors and such to the parallel port and programming them with the PC. The code won't apply, but he gives some great circuits and theory. I have both books and they are an excellent intro to controlling stuff with the parallel port.

"Use of a PC Printer Port for Control and Data Acquisition - Volume 2"

how to sort a dataset directly without using dataview(code required)

And people in Hell need ice-water.

This is an all-volunteer effort. Making time sensitive demands like this is just plain rude. You'd get faster results if you Googled it yourself, something like "VB.NET get host ip address".

Hi,

You can change one project to DLL and refer it in another so that you can use the form in one project in another.

Hope, this might help.

Hi to all,
do you remember when we could make an easy UDP connection with VB 6.0?
we needed only to drag and drop the winsock... one minutes of codes and... we could make two applications "talk together"!!!

Now i have a problem!!!

I want to do the same thing with "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005"... but there is a new way to program that i don't know... even i don't know what is the name/identifier of this new language... (maybe "VB.NET 2005"?)

I have found, on this site, articles/source on UDP connection... but "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005" say that this code is old so it make a convertion... EVEN THOUGH I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE SOURCE!!!

There are a lot more lines of code...

Please Help Me... I NEED A SMALL EXAMPLE (SOURCE FOR "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005") LIKE TWO FORMS THAT CAN CHAT BETWEEN THEM!!!

THAKN YOU ALL!!!

And excuse my english Sniff | :^)

Have you thought about the possiblity that VB.NET 2005 is so new, noone has written one specifically in that version yet?

You can load a VB.NET 2003 solution/project and 2005 will convert it to 2005 format. The code will still work.
