Hello Mr. Guffa,Ur solution is really a new thing for me. But I found that was not working properly for me when I test it. The following lines is not running during I execute it. But it doesn't promp me any error in my Visual Studio 2003. This is the line that it doesn't run as expected:
OriginatingAddress = reader.GetString("Mobile_No")
I put a messagebox to check the value inside Originating Address,but it show nothing inside. Do you have any idea with this? My database for this is fill will a number.
Hope to get some solution from you all here.
Thanks~!

I have an access db table with a column of type ole object. When I right click in the column a context menu displays that allows me to add an image.
Once the image is added the column displays 'bitmap image'. If I add an image via ado.net the column displays 'long binary format'.
How can I convert these existing 'bitmap image' items to 'long binary format'? The bitmap ones are causing problems with object and control references. For example I can declere a bitmap object and load from a stream as it throws an exception.
Thanks
Glenn

Let me rephrase my question.
I'm using vb.net. I'm doing the following and this exeption was thrown. ex.message = invalid parameter used.
The msaccess db table column is set to type ole object. Try this, go to the db table and right click on the column and click inser object and insert a bmp. The column value will now display bitmap image. Try your code against that and you'll experience the problem. Why?
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand(sql, cnn)
cnn.Open()
Dim b() As Byte
b = cmd.ExecuteScalar()
cnn.Close()
If (b.Length > 0) Then
Dim stream As New MemoryStream(b, True)
stream.Write(b, 0, b.Length)
'Display image
Dim PictureBox1 As New System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox
'exception is thrown at this statement
PictureBox1.Image = New Bitmap(stream)
'ex.message = invalid parameter used.
stream.Close()
End If
'conn.Close()
Why?
Thanks,
Glenn

The links Roath gave you have nothing to do with converting an OLEObject bitmap image to a usable Bitmap in VB.NET.
I think you're looking for something more like this:
Imports System.Io
.
.
.
Dim ms As New MemoryStream
Dim oleData() As Byte = dataRow.Item("ColumnName")
ms.Write(oleData, 78, oleData.Length - 78)
Dim bm As New Bitmap(ms)
PictureBox1.Image = bm
You got the right idea, just the wrong offset when you wrote your image data to the MemoryStream.

You hit the nail right on the head. The offset was all I needed. I searched high and low for this info and could not find anything. How did you know this? Alow is their any way to test if the column value is a ole data bitmap or an image in long binary format. I may incounter both types when running the conversion.
Thanks

I've seen the code before, but I can't remember where. I thought the offset was kind of odd myself.
As for determining which type the data is, you might want to take a look at the first bytes of each type to find a pattern between the two. I think the OLE objects will have a consistent header, while the pictures might have a different header.

Well as the title indicates I have a search that populates a datagrid with results. I am wondering if i click the first cell in the datagrid if I can then copy that informaton into another form. Since there can be duplicate people by last name, I need to be sure that the correct one is A clicked then the form is populated withthe users information. Is this possible with datagrids in VB6. i have seen tons of references to asp.net but notta with VB6
After playing a bit
<br />
Private Sub DataGrid1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)<br />
MsgBox "clicked"<br />
End Sub<br />
works when a record is clicked So the next step would be to copy the data or at least 1 field say a unique ID i could i guess perform another search and populate the form with that search. But would rather copy the data from the datagrid

Well this doesn't quite work
<br />
With Form1<br />
For I = 1 To DataGrid1.Col + 1<br />
FrmSearch.DataGrid1.Col = I<br />
Form1.Text1(I).Text = FrmSearch.DataGrid1.Text<br />
Next I<br />
End With<br />
Load Form1<br />
Form1.Visible = True
Any ideas? 
This results in 1 field from the datagrid placed into 1 textbox on the other form

Well I have revamped my process
here is the steps involved
1.search for a customer by last name Done
2.click Search Done
3. see results in datagrid Done
4. select customerID cell which could be in any row
for the correct customer with mouse click Not Done
> Capture mouse click?
> Capture cell value ?
5. return the clicked cell's value to a textbox. Not Done

During looping throug the directories the program tries to access the system directory
"C:\System Volume Information". The access is denied by the system and I receive an error message.
See subject.
So far I know there are two pssibilities
1. To avoid the error with ATTRIBUTE
2. To catch the error with TRY.
If I use ATTRIBUTE I don't know how the code looks and where I have to implemente it.
If I use TRY the program does not continue the loop.
Mein Code :
Private Function FindFiles(ByRef FoundFiles As ArrayList, ByVal dirname As String, ByVal filespec As String, ByVal recurseDirs As Boolean) As ArrayList
Dim strFilter As String = filespec
Dim m_arExt() As String = strFilter.Split(";")
Dim dic As New IO.DirectoryInfo(dirname)
For Each Filter As String In m_arExt
For Each fname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(dirname, Filter)
FoundFiles.Add(fname)
Next fname
' recurse on subdirectory if so requested
If recurseDirs Then
For Each dname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories(dirname)
FindFiles(FoundFiles, dname, filespec, recurseDirs)
Next dname
End If
Next Filter
Return FoundFiles
End Function
Can anybody assist me to sove the problem ?
Best regards Theo

Avoid exception handling in the normal flow of the code. Creating exception objects is rather costly.
Look at the attributes. Here is the documentation of the codes:
MSDN: FileAttributes Enumeration[^]
---
b { font-weight: normal; }
|
|
|
|
|
The articlke about ATTRIBUTE I found already. My problem is, I cant find a solution with this description. (Newbie).

You should have security permission to process a task on the directory which is protected by the OS. Therefore, define System.Security.IPermission() in the imports section and then create fileiopermission for the specific files under the specific directory.

Thank very much you for your answer.
I did was you suggest.
Imports System.Security
and, to get full access
Dim f As New Permissions.FileIOPermission(Permissions.PermissionState.None)
f.AllLocalFiles = Permissions.FileIOPermissionAccess.AllAccess
The result : I still got an error.
But I dont want to access the system directories. My favorite solution would be to avoid the error by using the ATTRIBUTE Class. But I dont now how to use. Do you have an idea ?
Best regards Theo

Hi!
You are able to reach to attributes of the files or even for directories. Here is an example. You have used an array what keeps all the files names. Therefore you can call their attributes.
File.SetAttributes(FileName, FileAttributes.ReadOnly)

Hi Journey,
The error comes up in this line of my code :
For Each fname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(dirname, Filter)
How can I interate your line
File.SetAttributes(FileName, FileAttributes.ReadOnly)
into my code ?
Regards Theo

You shouldn't get any error messages because of trying to reach the system directory. I did a few samples and those worked out in my puter. Here is a good sample how to recurse the directories. Check this out!
' For Directory.GetFiles and Directory.GetDirectories
' For File.Exists, Directory.Exists
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Collections
Public Class RecursiveFileProcessor
Public Overloads Shared Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
Dim path As String
For Each path In args
If File.Exists(path) Then
' This path is a file.
ProcessFile(path)
Else
If Directory.Exists(path) Then
' This path is a directory.
ProcessDirectory(path)
Else
Console.WriteLine("{0} is not a valid file or directory.", path)
End If
End If
Next path
End Sub 'Main
' Process all files in the directory passed in, recurse on any directories
' that are found, and process the files they contain.
Public Shared Sub ProcessDirectory(ByVal targetDirectory As String)
Dim fileEntries As String() = Directory.GetFiles(targetDirectory)
' Process the list of files found in the directory.
Dim fileName As String
For Each fileName In fileEntries
ProcessFile(fileName)
Next fileName
Dim subdirectoryEntries As String() = Directory.GetDirectories(targetDirectory)
' Recurse into subdirectories of this directory.
Dim subdirectory As String
For Each subdirectory In subdirectoryEntries
ProcessDirectory(subdirectory)
Next subdirectory
End Sub 'ProcessDirectory
' Insert logic for processing found files here.
Public Shared Sub ProcessFile(ByVal path As String)
Console.WriteLine("Processed file '{0}'.", path)
End Sub 'ProcessFile
End Class 'RecursiveFileProcessor

Good morning Journey,
Thanks for taking care of my problem. I havn't check your code yet because I'm a little bit tired for spending my nights in front of the computer. I find another solution with the ATTRIBUTE Class. It's works too. I will check your code next week because my leave starts.
If you can find a hidden problem in my code please tell.
Public Function BrowseForMediaFiles(ByRef AL_MediaFileAndPath As ArrayList, ByVal selectedPath As String, ByVal exTensions() As String) As ArrayList
Dim dic As New IO.DirectoryInfo(selectedPath)
Dim AtrrDir As Object
For Each Filter As String In exTensions
For Each fname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(selectedPath, "*." + Filter, IO.SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly)
AL_MediaFileAndPath.Add(fname)
Next fname
Next Filter
For Each dirc As IO.DirectoryInfo In dic.GetDirectories()
AtrrDir = dirc.Attributes 'Determine directory attribut.
Select Case AtrrDir
Case 22, 8214
'AtrrDir=22 The directory is a system directory. The directory is part
'of the operating system or used exclusively by the operating system
Case Else
For Each Filter As String In exTensions
For Each fname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(dirc.FullName, "*." + Filter, IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)
AL_MediaFileAndPath.Add(fname)
Next fname
Next Filter
End Select
Next dirc
Return AL_MediaFileAndPath
End Function 'BrowseForMediaFiles

Beim Lauf durch die Verzeichnisse greift das Programm u.a. auf das Verzeichnis
"C:\System Volume Information" zu. Der Zugriff wird dann verweigert und es wird eine Fehlermeldung zurück gegeben.
Wie kann ich diese Meldung Abfangen (TRY) bzw. vermeiden mit Attribute ?
Bei Abfangen mit Try wird die Schleife nicht weiter durchlaufen.
Bei Vermeidung des Fehlers mit ATTRIBUTE weis ich nicht wie und wo ich diese Abfrage einbeuen muß.
Mein Code :
Private Function FindFiles(ByRef FoundFiles As ArrayList, ByVal dirname As String, ByVal filespec As String, ByVal recurseDirs As Boolean) As ArrayList
Dim strFilter As String = filespec
Dim m_arExt() As String = strFilter.Split(";")
Dim dic As New IO.DirectoryInfo(dirname)
For Each Filter As String In m_arExt
For Each fname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(dirname, Filter)
FoundFiles.Add(fname)
Next fname
' recurse on subdirectory if so requested
If recurseDirs Then
For Each dname As String In System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories(dirname)
FindFiles(FoundFiles, dname, filespec, recurseDirs)
Next dname
End If
Next Filter
Return FoundFiles
End Function
kann mir jemand weiter helfen ?

You'll find more help if you can translate this into English.
To actually recurse, you need to write a recursive function, this will only work to one level.

Hiya,
I'm trying to import some data from a text file. Its delimited by a carriage return.
I've tried
myRow(i) = myLine.Split(vbcrlf)
and I've tried
myRow(i) = myLine.Split(Chr(13))
but Split just wont split it.
Any other ideas?

Read it a line at a time to start with ? Is this VB6 or VB.NET ?

Its VB.net 1.1
And Sorry, I was trying to simplify the question as much as possible and may have mislead away from the problem.
Its a string, not a file, that has been generated by a stream from a httpWebResponse.
Therefore its one string full of data that is delimited by a line feed.
I'm trying to break that string up into an array for each record.
