I already have a connection established, the following is code that I came up with that opens the .xls that I am after. I just don't know how to finish this code off to loop through the XL rows and put those records into a SQL table.
Public Sub Batch(ByVal Path As String)
Dim objExcel As New Excel.Application()
Dim objWrkBk As Excel.Workbook
Dim objSht As Excel.Worksheet
Dim objRng As Excel.Range
objWrkBk = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(Path)
End Sub
Thank you for any continued support.

That stuff you emailed me looks much cleaner, thank you.
I'm having trouble with the connection string though:
oConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=TempExcel;Data Source=JETSTREAM"
I have a windows auth to connect, in other words, I don't need to enter username or password to get in. I'm not sure how to adjust this.
Also,
in "SELECT * FROM TheTable", what is TheTable?
Is it some name from the .xls somehow?
Thank you for your patience.

Hey All,
If anyone can tell me a good book\web-site that can help me build a visual component..
Can I add my new component to the toolbox window?
Thanks
Roy.

I don't know of any book that just covers components or even comes close to covering every aspect of component development. You can start with Visual Basic(r).NET: The Complete Reference[^] by Jeff Shapiro. It did pretty well for me.
As for your second question, of course you can add your own controls to the ToolBox. All you need to do is right-click the ToolBox window somewhere and select Add/Remove Item...

I am new to vb.net.
I have created a form using vb.net.
The form has the following fields and a Datagrid:
a. Revision
b. Installation
c. Part No
d. Qty
e. Description
f. Change Rev (Field is Disable - autofill based on criteria)
The form also has the command buttons: Save and Close
For initial revision "-", I am able to capture and saved what was key-in the above fields (except "Change Rev").
For making subsequent revision, "A" (for example), the previous revision data is recaptured onto the fields.
However, I have a problem. Is it possible when there is any changes made to any of the following field (Part
No, Qty and Description) that is different from the previous revision, the field "Change Rev" will auto-fill
the current revision "A" in Change Rev. The purpose is to tell the user which set of data is change and in
what revision, if there is no change make to data, the Change Rev remain as "".
Any advise how to approach the above is appreciated. Many Thanks.

Hi,
I'm working on the VB.NET DDE project. I'm facing the trouble to establish a DDE connection. Does anybody here has an experience with the DDE for VB.NET?
If yes, could you share, please.
Many thanks,
Valdo

VB.NET doesn't support DDE at all. All support for DDE in VB ended with VB6. You'll have to P/Invoke all of the Win32 API functions and redefine all the structures your going to need. Docs on NetDDE begin here[^]. But be warned, all the example code is written in C++ and would need to be converted to VB.NET. There are various musings on the 'Net concerning DDE and VB.NET, but nothing extensive. You can look at the search results here[^].

Hi
Can anybody tell me how can I have a treeview like window explorer, If one client updates (adds any file to it) other clients on same or different machine will reflect the change
Thanks
Vikas...

|

|

Ewww.. Difficult to implement. Your going to have to have some kind of central server that each of your clients connects to so it can relay changes back and forth.
Windows Explorer can do this because it monitors for changes in the file system on the server. Your app is not going to have this little blessing because your not looking at a file system.
Or are you? In that case, you can use the FileSystemWatcher[^] class in VB.NET. There is no equivilent in VB6.

I'm building a multi-project solution in VB.Net and it tells me that 1 failed. How do I locate what project and where in that project is causing the failure?
|
|

The task list will usually list out any errors discovered. You can open it using CTRL-ALT-K or going to View | Other Windows | Task List to open the window. You can then double click on any error and it will automatically open up the offending file.
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to what Chris mentioned, you should also check the output window. It gives a blow by blow description of the build process, listing any errors that may have occured.
Ctrl & Alt & O
View - Other Windows - Output Window

I am looking at the Output window and it is telling me that there where 2 build failures. However the blow-by-blow account of the build process shows no errors. There are no compiler errors in my task list and just that 2 build failures. How come?
|
|
|
|
|
if there were compilation errors, they should definitely be listed in the output window.
look in between the portion of the build description that says "Performing Main Compilation..." and "Building Satellite Assemblies...". If there is anything in-between, chances are it's an error. You may have to scroll over to the right a little to see it's description, but it should be there.
As for the task list, give it a right click, go to "Show Tasks" and make sure that either "All", or "Build Errors" is checked. This way you're not filtering them out.
other than that i'm not sure what could be wrong, but make sure that all of your assembly/project references are solid.
hope this helps,

I am looking for code examples for VB6(SP5) that will enable the following
I receive a file that has been encrypted with RSA public key, it contains a number of transactions for processing. Encryption is used for transmission of the transaction file from behind one sites firewall to behind another sites firewall.
I have the private key.
How do I decrypt the file for processing. Since the application is running in a secure environment it does not need to retain the security protocol.

You might want to take a look at this[^] on vbRad. Crypto on VB6 is notoriously difficult because of the lake of unsigned data types.

Okay, I know how to control whole strings in VB .NET, but is there any way to control specific characters in a string? If so, how?

Thanks, the string.substring() really helped after I experimented with it a little bit.

I'd like to write a program in VB.NET that performs some actions synchronized to the music of a wav or mp3 audio file.
Something like: at 12.35 seconds into the playback a button appears, then at 45.5 seconds it disappears, etc. I'd like it to be precise and reapeatable so that at the particular beat or crescendo, something happens.
Any suggestions of how to get started?
Thanks
STEVE

As you know the music you are going to play and the times and events you are going to need. I reckon you want to set up a timer, add a timer to the form and then set the needed properties, start it.
With Timer1
.Start()
.Interval = 10
End With
You can then use the Timer_Tick event to do certain things at certain times, this occurs every time the interval (above) elapses in milliseconds.
i.e. Don't use this example though as you'll end up with a million msgboxs and it'll crash your pc, well it did mine.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
MsgBox("Hello World")
if timr
End Sub
This is a better choice
Dim i As Long
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
With Timer1
.Start()
.Interval = 1000
End With
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
i = i + 1
If i = 5 Then
MsgBox("5 Secs")
ElseIf i = 10 Then
MsgBox("10 Secs")
Elseif i = 20 then
'reset your counter say when tune ends
i = 1
End If
End Sub
That may help, i don't really know....

I seem to remember seeing a way to set a property of an object using a function where you pass the object and the property to be updated, and the value to set. That way you don't need to know the property at design time. Does this exist in VB6?
somefunction(object,propertynamevariable,value variable)
Thanks, Dave
