Does any body know if I can control my cooling fan on my laptop computer manually because it does not seem to work auto. when it hits the right temp. I want to test it. If I can’t do it in VB. Can I do that in another language?

You could try a non-virtual language like "resistor, +5V, voila!". Other than that you can only (with some motherboards) observe its behaviour, which I regard a good thing. Imagine any program that could access (stop) the CPU fan and burn another Athlon?

Your right that would be bad.

Some of them burn with the fan running normally

I have a data control and I need to pass in a Data object in a function's parameter. I'm the one making the function, so I can change it to a recordset, which is "ok" but it just doesnt make a whole lot of sense to do 1/2 of what i want to do outside of a function, and the rest inside of a function! (if i would pass a recordset)
So any suggestions? my boss remembers doing it but he forgot how. (uhh huh, yeah ok)
I believe it can be done, but all i want is a Data object, because that's the only thing i've really messed with in messing with Databases (i'm pretty new to VB but a veteran to C++)
Ok, thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for.... You might what to do a search for "Data aware class" on the MSDN.
Private Sub mysub(Data As Object)
End Sub

You are better off passing the recordset object if thats what you are going to be playing with. Otherwise you are using late binding. Something like this :
Sub DrawData(ByVal oRec as ADODB.Recordset)
Dim dField as Field
For Each dField in oRec.Fields
MsgBox dField.Value & " " & dField.Name
Next
End Function
Sub Main()
Dim oRecord as ADODB.RecordSet
Dim ssql as String
Dim oConnect As ADODB.Connection
oConnect.Open "Blah,Blah"
ssql = "SELECT * FROM table1"
oRecord.Open ssql, oConnect, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly
DrawData(oRecord)
MsgBox "Success"
End Sub

One of our VB6 apps is designed to be able to print, and prints using the basic printform command.
On most printers, it prints fine, except for one, an HP 930c DeskJet. The app gives the error "Can't print form image to this type of printer". (I believe the error code is 486.)
We've tried some of the solutions found on the 'net (even the Microsoft one), but nothing has worked so far.
Anyone have this kind of problem before?

Make a .JPEG that's the same size as your form and set it as the Picture property on your form... like David said

Help Please...!
I'm trying to add a shutdown routine to a program using the ExitWindowsEx API function. I'm running on Windows XP. The problem is that the LookUpPrivilegeValue function keeps crashing out saying : Instance of an object is not set. As far as I know I'm not referencing an object merely calling a function. Can anyone help?
Here is the code I am using:
Option Explicit On
Imports System
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Change your definition of LookupPrivilegeValue to this:
Public Declare Function LookupPrivilegeValue Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "LookupPrivilegeValueA" (ByVal lpSystemName As String, ByVal lpName As String, lpLuid As LARGE_INTEGER) As Long
and LARGE_INTEGER is declared liek this:
Public Type LARGE_INTEGER
lowpart As Long
highpart As Long
End Type
Use the APIViewer tool in VB to create these function declarations for you.
Good luck.

How can I access the DHTML objects from an activex created from new ActiveXObject("") jscript method?
Or I can just do this if I create an activex control?
thanks,
Luiz

You have a reference the ActiveX control first in Project/References.
JScript Example:
var objSession = new ActiveXObject("MAPI.Session");VB Example:
Dim objSession As MAPI.Session
Set objSession = New MAPI.Session

I don't know if you mean this, sorry if don't
Open "outputfile" for output as #1
For intI = 1 to ubound(arrArrayName)
print #1, arrArrayName(intI)
Next intI
Close 1
See:
Syntax
Open pathname For mode [Access access] [lock] As [#]filenumber [Len=reclength]
The Open statement syntax has these parts:
Part Description
pathname Required. String expression that specifies a file name — may include directory or folder, and drive.
mode Required. Keyword specifying the file mode: Append, Binary, Input, Output, or Random. If unspecified, the file is opened for Random access.
access Optional. Keyword specifying the operations permitted on the open file: Read, Write, or Read Write.
lock Optional. Keyword specifying the operations restricted on the open file by other processes: Shared, Lock Read, Lock Write, and Lock Read Write.
filenumber Required. A valid file number in the range 1 to 511, inclusive. Use the FreeFile function to obtain the next available file number.
reclength Optional. Number less than or equal to 32,767 (bytes). For files opened for random access, this value is the record length. For sequential files, this value is the number of characters buffered.

I am not very familar with Microsoft Access,but it seems that when you encrypt a access file(in menu tool->security),you needn't enter a username.Now the problem come:
In VB6.0,how can i connect to such a encrypted file?By data control,i didn't find any property related to database security;by ADO,the connection string shall contain a username,but what's the username to such a file?I tried leave it empty,but it caused a error

Hi all,
I've got problem when I try using Visual Basic 6.0 to display Unicode font on menu bar. Some characters appear with the question-marks.
If you'd done well this issue, please show me. I'm looking forward to your replies. Thanks a lot for your help.
Vu Truong.

This is a little difficult, you will need to resort to the Windows API's in order to do this.
You will need to look into localization functions to properly set the locale of the strings that your are working with. I do not have any more information than that right now, but I will try to post a link later today.
I hope this gets you started.

This is to all the excel geniuses, am trying to limit the lenght of text in a dailog box(in excel) if you think u can help plz reply
Thanks
|
|
|

I assume you are using a textbox. Just set the MaxLength property to the length you need. You can do this in the properties window (right click the text box and select Properties) or in code (Userform1.Textbox1.MaxLength = xx in the initialize procedure).
