is it possible to imbed a code to an existing duplicate file finder?
Only if you have the source code for the file finder. But then it wouldn't really be from scratch.
VB6 comes with the DriveListBox, DirListBox, and FileListBox controls to get information about drives, folders, and files on the local computer. I don't think that you can set them to return information about a remote computer. You will probably have to create two apllications. A client program that runs in the background and allows the user to clean his own machine if he wishes to, and an administrator program that can connect to the client program on a remote computer. The client program will scan the computer as requested by the administrator program. The administrator can then decide what to do with the duplicate files. I don't know much about how to send this sort of information over LAN but, if you are willing to learn it, DirectPlay can probably be of use to you.
If you don't like the DriveListBox, DirListBox, and FileListBox controls that come with VB, you can check out the FindFirstFile, FindNextFile, and FindClose functions of the kernel32 DLL. I've used these calls before and can send you snippets if you are interested.

The content made in notepad is the same as the document transferred to MS WORD, meaning both of them has exact contents, logically they were duplicates but this case was ignored by the system because they have different formats (Not Supported).
Maybe by your "logic", but there is absolutely no reason to assume that the user considers the file a duplicate.
Case in point: I have a resume, that I create with Word 2003. However I recognize that many potential employers may have an older version of Word. So I save the document in a Word 98 format on the assumption that any one can read that format. I have a third version which is saved as a simple text file because that is the format often encountered when submitting a resume through a website.
All three documents have the same "content", but they are by no means duplicates.

Im trying to import a CSV file into an access db using dao
The following code works well in the connection
Set tmpDB = DAO.OpenDatabase(ActiveWorkbook.Path, False, True, "Text;Database=C:/TEMP;Table=test.csv;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited;")
However part of the data is lost in the proccess.
I think that if I force all fields to behave as strings(varChar) I can solve this problem.
Does anyone know how to do this?

You might want to try adding the IMEX option to the connection string:
Text;Database=C:\TEMP;Table=test.csv;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimiteed;IMEX=1;
You can see this[^] KB article on MSDN for more information.

I just looked at this last week. Ummmm....I think you have to use the OLEDB classes and the connection string would be something like
"Provider=MSDASQL;DSN=dsnname"

My Design View and Code View don't coexist together anymore.
I can create a simple, new app -- text box and command button, for example. (all other projects closed)
Double-click on the button -- the code window opens and the Design tab is at the top -- as it should.
If I close both windows and click on the app in the solution explorer, the design view opens -- as it should.
????? If I right-click and select "View Code", the code window opens, but the design view goes away, no tab, nothing. If I then double-click the app in the solution explorer, design view comes back, but the code tab disappears ?????
I use VS .NET 2003 at two different locations. It worked fine on both computers until this VS went bonkers.
I have run setup again, choosing 'repair', but the problem persists.

In Tools->Options->Environment->Documents, "Re-use current document window, if saved" should be unchecked.

hi
I have an database tabel that i wana to bind it to a comboBox ...
I wana load all the data in the combobox from a spicefesic field
how can i do this ?
thx
|
|

There are three simple ways you can do this (in VB6 anyhow).
1. Use the Data Source property of the combo box and link it to your database.
2. Use an adodc control to create a recordset of your table data and input it into the combo box.
3. Use a data environment which is connected to the database and create a temporary record set.
Do you know how to do these or would you like an example of some code using one/ all or them?

Hi,
i have a problem with executing select query which was added to dataadpter.
i have 2 select command.
' first select command
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand = New OleDbCommand _
("SELECT UserName FROM Users where UserName=? AND PassWord=?", dbConnGym)
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("UserName", OleDbType.VarChar, 15, "UserName")
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("PassWord", OleDbType.VarChar, 15, "PassWord")
' second select command
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand = New OleDbCommand _
("SELECT * FROM Users ", dbConnGym)
'filling the datatable
dbAdapterUsers.Fill(dsGYMObj.Users)
2 question:
1) if i change the order between the queries , i get error " parameter ?_1 has no default value." -- why its ok if i the order is as above
2)i execute login function - and i have a feeling that it execute the first query and not the one with the parameters.
login Public Shared Function Login(ByVal username As String, ByVal pass As String) As Boolean
dsGYMObj.Users.Clear()
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@UserName", OleDbType.VarChar, 15, "UserName").Value = username
dbAdapterUsers.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@PassWord", OleDbType.VarChar, 15, "PassWord").Value = pass
dbAdapterUsers.Fill(dsGYMObj.Users)
If Not dsGYMObj.Users Is Nothing Then
If dsGYMObj.Users.Rows.Count > 0 Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End If
End Function
thanks
nir.

Hello There
I am using ListView Control (detail view) having 6 Columns Maximum ( depending on user can de-select the column from view options) So what I need is that the last column should have the width which is equal to the remaining width of the list control. So that the color assigned to that row should be displyed on the whole row.
I have seen this type of code in Codeproject. But Unfortunately I am unable to search that now  . If any one has URL for this or has any other solution would be highly appreciated

You need to set the Width property of the last ColumnHeader to -2.

Does anyone know how to get the windows explorer file context menu with all its entries (winzip for zip files, open with etc).
I have seen it implemented in file browsers but I have no idea how it is done. There is a C++ implementation of it here at the code project but I dont understand it , has anyone done this in VB.Net or have any ideas how I would go about doing it myself ?
Any advice would be appreciated.

You need to work with IContextMenu and IContextMenu2 shell API interfaces. Using the shell interfaces in VB.Net can be complicated, but you can see if the declarations for the interfaces are available on www.pinvoke.net

Thankyou for the link and info. It seems I have a lot to learn.
After looking into it a bit I think I may just end up creating standard context menus and implementing my own features.(The extra work will allow me greater control and make the app more usefull in the long run)
BTW the site in your sig came up while I was searching this topic,It was the last site I was on before posting here, kinda wierd you were the first reply.
Thanks

I don't usually do Office automation, so I don't know if this is going to work or not. But, did you try to find/call a Quit or Exit method on your Excel Application object?
