Send Keys duplicating information Fry1009-Jul-07 22:58 Fry100 9-Jul-07 22:58  Guys, I'm trying to use the SendKeys function to pass information to a website from VB.NET 2005 but when I do, the text I pass across is duplicated. Code is below: <br /> AppActivate(strBrowseToThisWebpage) <br /> SendKeys.Send("1") <br /> This code never returns the same result. Sometimes it adds 1 to the texbox, sometimes 1111, sometimes 111111 etc. Any ideas? Alternatively, if there's another method I can use to send data to a webpage, that would be very helpful. Thanks, Fry Activx control and its properties Tom Deketelaere9-Jul-07 22:43 Tom Deketelaere 9-Jul-07 22:43  Yes here I am again but there is so little to find on the net about this I'v been able to get my vb.net user control in access now but still have two problems: 1) when I set a property in the (access) property window and then put the form in normal view the property is reseted to the original (default) value 2) I can't seem to adress my property in VBA code not by using usercontrol.Path = "test" nor by useing usercontrol.properties("path") = "test" any help on this would be greatly appriciated if this is the wrong forum to post it on I'm very sorry Smartcard and Certificates Murat Turk9-Jul-07 22:31 Murat Turk 9-Jul-07 22:31  Hello. I develop a web page that user will login with client certificate which at smartcard. I read a lot of pages than i understood that middleware softwares copy certicates from smartcard to User Local Store(Personel Store) to read certificates from client computers. I have such middleware but it's not free of charge, so i can not disturb this software to all clients which will login my page with smartcard. So i want to develop an application which copies certificates from smartcard to user local store. I use GemSafe cards and Gemplus Twin Reader. Also i use GemSafe Libraries as middleware software. I developed some applications with smartcard so PC/SC interface and other special commands are not stranger for me. I just don't know where can i start? You have some ideas? I can use "capicom" for this project? I use VB 6.0 but i also know VB.Net a little. Thanks Problem In Using Wildcard Characters V.G9-Jul-07 21:04 V.G 9-Jul-07 21:04  Hi all! I have a Search application that has VB.net as the frontend and MS Access as the backend. I need to execute a query with a like clause "Select * from employee where emp_name like '*a*' This returns results results if i execute it directly at the db side; but returns no results on executing it through the application. (does not return any results if i use a wildcard charecter) Can anyone help me with this?? Thanks!! Re: Problem In Using Wildcard Characters Steven J Jowett9-Jul-07 21:12 Steven J Jowett 9-Jul-07 21:12  Assuming you are using ADO or ADO.NET then the wildcard parameters are as follows % = Match any string _ = Match any character Steve Jowett ------------------------- Sometimes a man who deserves to be looked down upon because he is a fool, is only despised only because he is an 'I.T.

Thanks!!!! Re: Problem In Using Wildcard Characters Tom Deketelaere9-Jul-07 21:20 Tom Deketelaere 9-Jul-07 21:20  in addition I'd like to add (because I just had a simaler program where I encounterd this problem) that the wildcard * (or %) will not return 'null' values. (I haven't found any wildcard that will in access) so you will need to make shure that there is always a value in you're db fields otherwise I'm afraid you search will not work perfectly Re: Problem In Using Wildcard Characters V.G9-Jul-07 21:29 V.G 9-Jul-07 21:29  yess. Thanks!! Change Database Connection in Runtime-Need help pyrocoder9-Jul-07 20:54 pyrocoder 9-Jul-07 20:54  Hi All I am looking for a way to let the users of my applications change the database connection in runtime. The database is SQL and the application is written in VB.NET Re: Change Database Connection in Runtime-Need help _Damian S_9-Jul-07 21:04 _Damian S_ 9-Jul-07 21:04  You would need to store the database name and user/password info somewhere locally with your user (an .ini file, registry, access database etc) and read the information from there into a variable, then use the variable in your vb.net code to instantiate the database connection. Hope this helps. ------------------------------------------- Damian - Insert snappy one-liner here.

Application Path Nanda16059-Jul-07 20:33 Nanda1605 9-Jul-07 20:33  Hi, i like to get my projects startup path in VBA, i.e., how to find the installed folder of an application. I got the code in VB.NET but my requirement is to get in VBA as macro My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath.ToString Thanks, Nanda Re: Application Path _Damian S_9-Jul-07 21:09 _Damian S_ 9-Jul-07 21:09  If you are using VBA, I assume you are using MS Access. This is how to get the path for the current database in Access: Application.CurrentProject.Path Hope this helps. ------------------------------------------- Damian - Insert snappy one-liner here.
