You could, but it's much easier just to setup SQL Server to do it for you.

SQL server backups and restores are standard SQL commands, send them as you would any other command.

Hi,
Let me know from which way you want to take backup?
If you want to do it through GUI you can easily do by right click on database.
If you want to do it by SQL Command then try it
Sql Command:
Backup Database databasename with init.
try it then inform me.

I will be doing it from within a VB .NET application. So it would probably be the sql command. I'll give it a try when I get to that part of the implementation.
thanks for the reply.

Hi
I am customizing the Crystal Report Viewer to set it to the color standards we have. I did all the changes but stuck with the Border color change of the Viewer. I tried drawing a line in the Paint event of the viewer but didn't help.
Does anyone know how can i change the Border Grey colour of the Crystal Report Viewer ?
Thanks

Since you're talking to an SQL Server, you can get the current date/time from a stored procedure. SQL Server uses GETDATE() to return the local date and time of the box the server is running on.
SELECT GETDATE()

If there is no SQL Server installed how can you retrieve the date/time from the network server itself?
|
|
|
|
|
If yur server is running the TCP/IP DateTime Service, you could write your own Telnet client and connect to it on Port 13. The service will return the server's date and time as a text. You'll then have to parse it up to get the information you want.
Another option would be to write your own Windows Service to return the server's date/time using either TCP/IP sockets (like the DateTime service does) to communicate or .NET Remoting.

The OpenFileDialog doesn't actually launch anything. All it does is let the use pick a file which is returned to your application as a String,
C:\Documents and Settings\username\myFile.txt
It's up to your code to do whatever you need to with this String. In your case, you have to launch Notepad, so you use the Process class to do this:
openFileDialog1.Multiselect = False
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Dim myFilePath As String = openFileDialog1.FileName
Process.Start("Notepad.exe", myFilePath)
End If

I'm using THE api(SendMessage or PostMessage) to send a custom message between 2 VB.Net exe's. The called exe is subclassed to listen to the custom message. In the calling exe, I'm trying to pass a string in the 4th parameter. At this stage the 2nd exe is already running. The api call keeps crashing the 2nd exe. Can it be done across exe's or only within the same exe, thanks.
thanks for your apply or provide sample code( the best :laugh )

You've managed to ask a completely different question from your original post.
This technique won't work on Word the way you want. It'll set the titlebar text of the document window, not the text of the document.

I have a dynamically created RichTextBox that is created in the forms "OnLoad" event. For some reason it will not set the focus of the cursor inside the Text area. Once the program is running and I use the same code again it creates a new one and automatically sets the cursor inside it. What is wrong?
Dim rtbTextArea As New RichTextBox<br />
Dim newTab As New TabPage<br />
Dim newTime As Date = Now.ToString 'Set newtime to system time and date<br />
Dim strNewTime As String = newTime 'convert newTime to string<br />
<br />
TabControl1.TabPages.Add(newTab) 'Add new Tab Page to tab control<br />
TabControl1.SelectedTab = newTab<br />
With newTab<br />
.Text = strNewTime 'Set Tab Page text to System date and Time<br />
.Controls.Add(rtbTextArea) 'Add the rich text Box to the new tab control<br />
With rtbTextArea<br />
.Dock = DockStyle.Fill 'Set Rich Text box area to fill tab page<br />
.ContextMenuStrip = ContextMenuStrip1<br />
.AcceptsTab = True<br />
.Focus()<br />
End With<br />
AddHandler rtbTextArea.SelectionChanged, AddressOf SelFontChk 'Assign SelctionChange Event Handler<br />
End With
Thanks in advance
Thanks,
Taen Karth

You can't SetFocus to a control until the form is displayed (i.e. active). If you want the control to have the focus when the form is initially displayed, set the control's TabIndex property to 0 (zero).

it's easy to save the object in the registry as string...
but how to convert that string (after getting it from the REG) to an object telling the converter: "this is the context of this object type".
i tried using the typeDescriptor, but no help.
who can help! i need and excutable example (VB.NET code) using the Color Object!!

I would suggest that you save the color in the ARGB for which is a 32 bit value. You can obtain this from the Color object by the Color.ToArgb method. You can then save this integer in the registry, read it back later and convert it back to a color object using the Color.FromArgb method.
