Most .net is the same between the two really, the following is shorter in vb
Select Case number
Case 0
'do something
Case 1
'do something
Case 2
'do something
Case 3
'do something
End Select
I prefer the case insensitivity in vb, strSomething and strsomething should NOT be different, it is not obvious enough when your flying through the code that someone else wrote. And obvious errors are the easiest to discover.

Yes. I've tried to use VB6 for a few years; it took months to get that influence out of my system. Classes in VB6 - ugh!

It's a beer, but not many people drink it.
Seriously, how can this be a serious question ? If you don't know what it is, you obviously are not a programmer, so why ask here ?

Hi,
I am trying to find the ProcessID in task manager for a Cluster Resource Item. For Example if we have a Cluster Service installed which has a resource item which is Online - Running, then what willbe the processid associated to it.
How ca we figure out using vbscripting?
Thanks
|

The processID will change every time the app is run. You can use WMI and it's Win32_Process class to get the ID from its ProcessId property. Documentation and a VBScript example can be found here[^].

Wrong place to post this numb skull.
You may want to post more details in the appropriate place like the actual work and what you're willing to pay.
Cheers!

I removed your email address for three reasons
1 - to save people from themselves, someone who posts a job ad here, obviously is not someone you want to work for
2 - to save you from yourself, bots trawl the web for people stupid enough to post their address, to spam them
3 - because if you want to advertise for a job here, there is a job board where you can do that

I am using Visual Basic 6.
I am trying to write a program that would gather statistics on the loudness of the input on the microphone for an expiriment.
(I have a USB microphone.)
WHAT command in Visual Basic would allow me to get a numeric value for the loudness of the sound coming from the microphone?
I would like to see a text of the program that does that.
Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
You have a problem. The loudness of a sound is not accurate because of settings in the sound card, quality of microphone, calibration, type of microphone, ...
I hope you're not using the data for anything in particular.
But, you've got a bunch of options to look at - here[^].

i know how to use google, thanks
i am using visual basic 6
so vb.net is no good for me
they are different languages
i found some code in c#, but even if i imply it into vb6, i will have to change it, so i don't think that it will work for me

Great. Then you know how to replace "VB.NET" in the query with "VB6".

Well, welcome to reality. VB6 is crap, it always was, but now, it's unsupported crap. VB.NET is free. What possible reason could you have to use VB6 ?

vb6 is user friendly
no memory allocation, headers and all that bull$#!+, friendly syntax
plus this is the only compiler that i have
I cannot program VB.net, I am not a professional programmer to learn new languages every year.
I am just asking if you remember how to solve this issue using the methods of VB6.
Thanks.

Well, you better pick up VB.NET and fast. VB6 is not supported under Windows Seven. Once you do learn it, you'll find that VB6 is NOT user friendly in the least and you'll feel like you've been writing code in the Dark Ages.

Thank you for your advise but I am trying to solve a real problem with whatever technology available.

Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition is free and can be downloaded from the internet, without having to register or anything. Technology can't be much more available than that.
You don't need to be concerned about vb.net's syntax being a whole lot different from VB6's. The biggest difference is, that a lot things have been simplified. Certain things that would take you 5 lines of code in vb6, can be accomplished with a single method in vb.net. And if you can't figure out how to do something in vb.net, that you do know how to do in vb6, you can reference vb6 in vb.net and then still use the old functions after all.
Now more to the point of your problem, vb6 is not only no longer supported by MickeySoft, but has also been all but abandoned by programmers. This means that you'll be much more likely to get help solving your problem in vb.net, than in vb6. Also you'll find many many more examples on the net, and possibly ready made drivers and libraries to help you.
Trust me, when I switched from vb6 to vb.net, I was very frustrated for all of a week (maybe a week and a half). After that I felt, like Dave so aptly put it, like I had been writing code in the dark ages.
Save yourself a month of frustration in vb6 (and still not find the solution to your problem), by suffering a week and a half in vb.net.
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.
