The resulting file would not be usable until you took the files apart and put them back into the directory structure. You would need a method to sort out where the file boundries are in the composite file so you can determine where one file stops and the next begins.

Servers don't merge files together. Where did you get an idea like that?

Sub7 is an hacker "tool" (Trojan horse, really) that allows someone to take over your computer, without you knowing about it.

Your talking about installing code into another .EXE. This requires in-depth knowledge of the PE executable format and how the Windows Loader works. Since this technique is used nearly exclusively by hackers and virus writters, no, I'm not telling you how to do it.

I have some figures which i store in label and textbox controls. I have used cstr(system.math.round(figure, 2)) to get it to round to 2 decimal places. What I can't find out how to do is to make it have 2 decimal places whether it needs them or not i.e. £ 24 would become £24.00.

Does anyone know a quick way that i can so this? Confused | :confused:

Cheers, V

Hi,

Try this one:

<br />
Dim num As Decimal = 24<br />
MsgBox num.ToString("##,##.00")<br />

VB6 DAO Class Reference

Re: VB6 DAO Class Reference [EDITED]

14-Jun-04 18:07

Does anyone know where I might be able to find a good reference that explains all the properties, functions, and classes of the DAO Reference Library? I am trying to learn how to use the Parameter Class and would like to read up on the rest. I have search google multiple times, but can not come with anything. I can't even find a good reference book at B&N. Thanks in advance.

Re: VB6 DAO Class Reference

15-Jun-04 2:38

That's because DAO has been obsolete for years now. The replacement is ADO inside the Microsoft Data Access Components. Since I can't get to MSDN now (DNS is failing), go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/data[^] and look through the docs there.

[EDIT]
You might also find the docs for DAO in the MSDN Library Archives. Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/[^] to see if they still have the docs...

Yes, there a is a little bit difficult for a people who want to learn DAO in the .NET technology era. I would like to recommend you a book, but it might be old for you to learn and it might be difficult to find it in the bookstore. As I remember, try to find the books titled “Programming DAO” published by Microsoft Press. I forgot its author name, but I think this one is the good one. Try to learn VBA books in Access 97 also teach you about DAO technology. If you have MSDN Library January 2000, then there is also a section teaching you to learn DAO Reference. Office Developer documentation also the best place for learning DAO and ADO technology.

Thanks for the information. I will try to find those books. I have had a lot more success with DAO over ADO and it seems to run faster, therefore I have been using DAO. I found some information about using the parameter class from Microsoft last night and it helped. I would just like to find a good reference for the whole object library. Thanks guys.

Icons referenced in resource files

15-Jun-04 5:33

I would still highly recommend you abandon the DAO approach and use ADO/ADO.NET. DAO's final version is 3.6 and will no longer be available on any future version of Windows, nor will there be any updates, other than security, to functionality.

Hello

In BizTalk, when adding an object, you may have an icon associated with it (.bmp). The catch is that this image can only be loaded into the corresponding object this way:

BaseFunctoid.SetBitmap("IDB_SOME_IMAGE_RESOURCE")

How do I put a bitmap into a resource file (it seems to be in base64)

Thank you

Michel

Try this website.

I used this example to load all my bitmaps and icons into a resource file. It requires a lot of reading, but there are plenty of examples and source code.

Hi,

Does anyone know of an API in VB6 (perferably) or any other way to programmatically give a user read access to a folder. I am presently using a product called Dameware, which works fine, but it removes the inheritance on the folder to which I add the user.

Any help is appreaciated,

thanks,

sivilian

Re: Setting Permissions Programatically

There is this[^] article on MSDN that shows a method of do it with VB.NET and the Active Directory SDK. There is also this[^] article here on CodeProject.

Just a counter ?

How can check a string between two forms.

Re: Just a counter ?

Dave Kreskowiak14-Jun-04 7:30

14-Jun-04 7:30

How many times are you going to post this question? This is your third and it's considered very rude.

You haven't described what you mean by a "counter"? Counters don't check strings. They count, nothing else. What is this counter counting? What are you checking for in the string?

Passing the string between forms is not hard at all.

' Form1
Dim f2 As New Form2
 
f2.CheckString("This is a string...")


' Form2
Public Function CheckString(ByVal strToCheck As String) As Integer
    '  Do some kind of check on the string
    Return intResult
End Function

Like I said, since you haven't supplied any code what so ever, it's hard to tell you what you doing right and wrong.

convert Ms Word to PDF

Hi..

I'm actually trying to do a project on converting Ms word into PDF and storing them in SQL server database. The problem is that i would like to the conversion without using third party software. However, i can't find the codes or snippets in vb.net. Appreciate any help on this matter. Thx

Dave Kreskowiak14-Jun-04 7:10

14-Jun-04 7:10

Sorry. You're going to use third party software to convert to PDF. There are no snippets anywhere on how to do this because of the complexity involved. The only free solutions are going to be PDF printer drivers that create a .PDF file that you can then read as binary data and send to a large field in an SQL database.

Search http://SourceForge.net to find some open source projects that do this. You'll quickly see why you haven't found any .NET code snippets...

Actually, there is a way to convert text files to PDF format, and I guess by using VBA to convert the WORD document to text, you could then convert it to PDF. I can't post the open source code on this site because I am not sure where I got it from and therefore I do not want to infringe on publishing notices (I have the author, but no website). Get in contact with me and I will send a ZIP file from my code library. I've used it to create simple text reports and it works great!

Also, if you have time on your hands, you could read up on the PDF file format. Adobe has a 518 page reference that explains how to do build it. You can get a copy of this file from: http://www.wotsit.org/
