Christian gave you an idea that would work. What's the problem?

My problem begins at "myCommand.ExecuteScalar()". My try...catch error handler reads, "Invalid object name: EmpId". My table has a column labeled "EmpId" so I'm not actually sure what the problem is. Any ideas?

myConnection.ConnectionString = "workstation id=SHANNON-OUYIJ2M;packet size=4096;integrated security=SSPI;data source=SHANNON-OUYIJ2M;persist security info=False;initial catalog=WorkInstructionLibrary"
'Create a parameterised command that will return the number of matches.
Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM EmpID WHERE EmpID = @employeeId", myConnection)
'Set the parameter values to the credentials entered by the user.
myCommand.Parameters.Add("@employeeId", SqlDbType.Int).Value = Me.txtEmpId.Text
myConnection.Open()
Try
Dim count As Integer
count = CInt(myCommand.ExecuteScalar())
If count = 0 Then
'generic fail message
Else
'allow application to proceed
End If
Catch ex As SqlException
Dim errorMessages As String
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To ex.Errors.Count - 1
errorMessages += "Index #" & i.ToString() & ControlChars.NewLine _

Next i
Dim log As System.Diagnostics.EventLog = New System.Diagnostics.EventLog

log.WriteEntry(errorMessages)
Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred. Please contact your system administrator.")

Found the solution! My EmpId should have been my table name. Stupid syntax error on my part! Thanks to all.

hi,
i want to make a program that will stand between a program i use and the server it connects to so i can see the packets moving between them.
the question is, how i make my program redirect the ip:port of the other program to go through it ?
should i use winsock ? inet ? in which way ?
any suggestions ?

If you want to write it yourself, you have two options. You can either write your own proxy or your own network monitor. Either way, it's alot of work. Or you can use the Network Monitor that comes with Windows Servers.
No matter what, I would suggest Googling for "network packet capture windows". Clickety[^]

Does anybody know if there is a (one command) way to change the BackColor of all controls in a form as well as the form itself?
I have an application with several forms and controls and I want to “spruce up” the look a little bit.
Thanks
Brad

|

|

Nope. You'll have to enumerate all the controls on the form and change them, one by one.

Is it possible to create a MultiLine list box?
Any references that could point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Do you mean add items?
Here is how you add items:

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anybody knows the answer to this as i have looked and found nothing.
I have a form with several controls on it, i want to catch the keypress - easy enough but for all controls including the form not just the one with focus. The only way i can see is to add the event for every control, but i have about 75 controls on this form and this just doesn't seem logical.
any ideas
help is greatly appreciated.

Your form and a majority of controls in .NET should already have a KeyPress event. It's up to you to put code into those events to perform whatever action/task you want to accomplish.
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry I read wrong...but other than placing code in the KeyPress event...it really depends if you are doing a specify task for that control. If each task is different...I don't see a way around this.
Plus, if you just capture the KeyPress on the Form you will still have to delegate the task to some event/sub of that control and knowing which one to delegate to could be a real mess!
|
|
|
|

No he doesn't! See Form.KeyPreview[^]

AFAIK, this is the only way to do what you want, without writing keyboard hooks...

Thanks everybody for the replies.
Thought I'd let you know what i found out, although KeyPreview looked good i had just found what i wanted, this doesn't mean i not grateful for the reply as i am and i almost used it anyway as it looked good and i think i might still.
However i found two ways of doing something similar to what i wanted.
They are....
method 1, rather than have several key press events you can have one sub that handles them all if you add the keypress for each on the end of the event handles bit, although this does mean adding all 75 controls on the end like so....
Private Sub Button1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Button1.KeyPress, ListBox1.KeyPress, Label1.KeyPress, PictureBox1.KeyPress, etc.KeyPress
End Sub
method 2, found a piece of code to add the keypress handler for a control to another sub
Public Sub AddKeyPressEvent(ByVal ControlName As Control)
AddHandler ControlName.KeyPress, AddressOf GenericKeyPressEvent
End Sub
Public Sub GenericKeyPressEvent(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs)
MsgBox(e.KeyChar)
End Sub
You just call AddKeyPressEvent(Listbox1) and then it's keypress event will be GenericKeyPressEvent,
Using this i could loop through the controls on the form and add them all at startup, clunky but effective, however keypreveiw looks good.
Thanks again
Hope this helps someone else with this problem.;P

KeyPreview is overkill?  It's doing something very similar to what your two methods are doing in function, but with no code and is much quicker. All you're doing is putting the code your processing the keystrokes with into a different sub.

I am converting a working VB6 program to VB.net and am unable to
correctly pass these structures to the dll.
I think I have everything initialized correctly but am not sure.
Any help or comments on how to Marshal this data will be appreciated.

It would help to see what does work, so it can be correctly translated into VB.NET. Since it's very unlikely that anyone else is going to have the docs on the function your trying to call, it would help to see what's working!

I am not sure exactly what you are asking to see.
The call to the dll is the next to last line of the code sample and the declaration is about midway through the code.
Most of the dlls I work with are custom drivers for industrial machinery and I do not have access to the code or even the technical details of how the code works. I am given the method names and a sample of how to use them. The sample was given in VB6 and works.
I will be happy to email the full code and the driver dlls to anyone who is interested in commenting on getting this code to work.
Thanks for the interest.

You said you're converting a working VB6 app to VB.NET. How about seeing the working VB6 source your converting from?

This VB6 code works.
Note that I had removed some parameters from the VB.NET sample for brevity.
Thanks again.
