What do you want to check from the checkbox? You have to make it narrow, so other user can help you with it.

Decimal and hexadecimal are string representation of numbers. Are you really having a string representing the number, or are you just having a plain simple number?

I assume that you don't know what you are talking about Wink | ;)

, and that you have a 16 bit number, and want to split it into two 8 bit numbers (bytes):

a = &hfe2 ' the number 4066

b = a div 256 ' will contain the number 15, or &hf
c = a and 255 ' will contain the number 242, or &he2

b { font-weight: normal; }

1) Right click on the header of the section
2) click choose items
3) check maskedtextbox

Thanks, Terence

Datagridview missing operand error [modified]

I have a datagrid that displays a computer's filesystem. As the drive is recursed the directories and files are added to the datagrid. The problem is that when it tries to add a directory named "B's Clip" I get an error
"Missing operand after 's'...."

I tried escaping the quote with another quote
(i.e. "B''s Clip") and a backslash (i.e. "B\'s Clip"). Neither worked.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

thanks,

Try converting all drive names to string when doing the iteration, it seems like your method is evaluating the drive name as an expression.

Search this site, or even google and there are tons of examples. If you're 'really new' then perhaps it's too soon to worry about databases, the world is filling with people who can make a pretty form in VB, and will never be programmers.

I am certainly not going to damper your spirits and tell you not to strive for what you want. Look under the system.data namespace in MSDN library. This is the namespace where you can do all kinds of data manipulations using databases. There is something called an oledb provider. There for it should be system.data.oledb This is the only way you can access the Microsoft access database engine.

You can use something like this
'OleDbConnection object used for connecting to a database
Private _ConnectionObj As New OleDbConnection()

'OleDbCommand object used for executing a command
Private _Command As OleDbCommand

_connectionObj.ConnectionString = [Shared].ConnectionString
_ConnectionObj.Open()
_Command = New OleDbCommand("Select * From Registrants", _ConnectionObj)

Where you see [Shared].ConnectionString, this is the string you should pass in

Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Visual Studio Projects\AnnualMeetingRegistration\Database\Registrants.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;

Normally, you would want to store you connection string in the app.config file, but don't do that right now. Just use the string example I showed you. As you get more experienced, you will find better methodologies of programming.

Then you open the connection object and pass the connection object to the command object. After, you have finished close the connection object. If you decide to use a data reader you will have to close that as well.

Here is an excellent website for connection strings. http://www.connectionstrings.com/[^]

I hope this helps,

message boxes in ASP .NET forms

Can message boxes ( pop up boxes) be used within ASP.net forms?
The info I found visual studio says they are SYSTEM.OBJECTS , I tried inherits SYSTEM.OBJECTS but still get a not declared message
Is this something that can only be used in Windows forms? Is there something similar for ASP or VB classes?
Thanks

reading memory from proccess problem! [modified]

hi,

First of all a screenshot

http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/5797/problemiovg8.png[^]

i am using the DLL from this artical (http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/minememoryreader.asp[^]) To read memory from a rollercoaster game, to get lateral and acceleration Gs, these values are in the form of a double.

in a memory scanner i have froze one of the values to "0.1" for testing purposes but when i read the memory address from VB.NET it reads it as "154153153153153153185630003217311321963" !!!

i am very confused about this, is there anyone here that has a clue?

also, does anyone know of other DLLs that can do the same job?

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        RichTextBox1.Clear()
        
' Choose process
Dim myProcesses As System.Diagnostics.Process() = 
System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("NoLimitsSimulator")

'Load it to memory reader
        mem.ReadProcess = myProcesses(0)

'open it
        mem.OpenProcess()

'decs
        Dim out As Int32
        Dim current
        Dim memory() As Byte
        'new pointer
        Dim loc As IntPtr
        loc = "5581752"
        'Read The Memory
        memory = mem.ReadProcessMemory(loc, 16, out)
        
'Return Value
'these al like this because i was experimenting!
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(0)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(1)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(2)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(3)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(4)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(5)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(6)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(7)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(8)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(9)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(10)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(11)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(12)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(13)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(14)
        RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & memory(15)

    End Sub

it also happens when i read only 8 bytes

Why the quotes around the number - that makes it a string...

~~loc = "5581752"~~
loc = New IntPtr(5581752)
