I am working with VB.Net 2003; I see a lot of programs being designed a lot like Outlook. With the left pane with options and the right pane showing like the data grid or something. Then you can click on something like add new record in the left pane then an input box will come up so you can enter the data for a new record and save it.
Is there a template that allows you to do this? If so, can someone tell me where to go to get it?
Thanks!

Hi all
This is my first post so please be gentle!!
Ok im not new entirely to VB.net but I am totally new to threading/async calls/cross thread interaction.
The sample code below is an async operation to catch received socket traffic.
The async method works just fine in capturing what i need, now i need to raise an event from my class to the form it was instantiated on, but doing so in a thread safe manner. To do this I have been using a sync object of type "System.ComponentModel.ISynchronizeInvoke". I pass my main form to this object as the synchronising object. as below (this is the new method of my class)
<br />
Public Sub New(ByVal BufferSize As Int32, ByVal SyncObject As System.ComponentModel.ISynchronizeInvoke)<br />
_SyncObject = SyncObject<br />
_Connected = False<br />
_BufferSize = BufferSize<br />
End Sub<br />
Now this sync object i use handles all my thread safe calls without any issue except for my receive method as follows:
Private Sub BeginReceive(ByVal ar As IAsyncResult)<br />
Try<br />
Dim _Bytes As Byte() = CType(ar.AsyncState, Byte())<br />
Dim _numBytes As Int32 = _Socket.EndReceive(ar)<br />
<br />
If _numBytes = 0 Then<br />
Dim c As New dlgNoParams(AddressOf Disconnect)<br />
_SyncObject.Invoke(c, Nothing)<br />
Else<br />
Dim _Data As String = _Ascii.GetString(_Bytes)<br />
Dim args(0) As Object<br />
args(0) = _Data<br />
Dim d As New dlgReceiveData(AddressOf ReceiveData)<br />
_SyncObject.Invoke(d, args)<br />
Dim e As New dlgNoParams(AddressOf StartReceive)<br />
_SyncObject.Invoke(e, Nothing)<br />
End If<br />
Catch ex As Exception<br />
<br />
Dim myType As Type = ex.GetType<br />
Console.WriteLine(myType.ToString)<br />
If Not myType.FullName = "System.Net.Sockets.SocketException" Then<br />
Dim f As New dlgErrorEvent(AddressOf ErrorEvent)<br />
Dim args(0) As Object<br />
args(0) = ex<br />
_SyncObject.Invoke(f, args)<br />
Else<br />
'_QueueThread.Abort()<br />
_Socket = Nothing<br />
End If<br />
End Try<br />
End Sub
I have several other methods that are executed on the forms main thread using the same methods as obove but just references different delegates, but the basics behind them all are very similar.
Every time i receive data through the socket i get a "NullReferenceException was Unhandled" with a message of{"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."}
Can anyone point me in the right direction please? or offer me an alternative to a thread safe method of raising an event within my class that runs from this async thread please?
Many thanks in advance and thanks for looking

It seems this only errors out when passing the args object as a 1-dimensional array which holds a string. If i pass the word 'Nothing' instead of the args object i dont get the error. But i need to pass args as the method processes the data and raises the appropriate event. Any ideas? I have Bold/Underlined the offending line where i get the error. Thanks again

Hi There
Bascially a csv file is a plain text file holding records line by line, each field on the line seperated by a comma (,)
You need to open/create a file using the system.io objects
use a datareader of sorts to access your dataset tables row by row
create a string of each row like so:
field1,field2,field3,field4....etc
then write that line to the file, each line = 1 row
then capture the next row and recreate your string with fields seperated by , (commas) and so forth. I could easily write the code here but I think you would learn more if you attempt it. Its easier than it sounds

Hi All.
I am using ADO, Visual Basic 6.0 to connect to the dbf file to query corresponding table. After finish the query, I've closed the record set and the connection but I still could not rename that file (renaming is used for another purpose). Windows says that the file is in use by other person or application. I can only rename the file when the application using the connection above close (shutdown). Please tell me know to release completely to that file even though the application is still running.
Thanks so much.
Arien.

Make sure that every object that uses the connection is closed. You may have to set each db object to nothing also. Go through your code line by line and ensure every mention of the database connection has been closed properly. There must be an object still connected somewhere, especially if you close the app you are able to rename it. Also you may have to give the objects a little amount of time to complete its closing events before you can access the file to rename it. Hope this helps!

Problem solve to delete multiple record at once:
Set rr = DB.OpenRecordset("SELECT * from DO where [NO] = " & dono.Text)
Do
rr.Delete
rr.MoveNext
Loop Until (rr.EOF)
rr.Close
Set rr = Nothing

Why not try writing a delete query?
|
|
|
|
|
Write an SQL query like this:
DELETE * FROM DO WHERE [NO]= [your_value_here]
...connect to your database and use the execute command to run this query.
|
|
|
|
|
Why are you settings a connection string for the connection, then using a different connection string?
Is the no field text or numeric? In the delete query you are using a string value, but in the select query you are using a numeric value.
After the delete query, don't delete anything from the recordset. As you are not opening the recordset in this code, it may contain anything from any previous code, and you may be deleting something completely different.

It's more a question about "wat" you should delete... 
I've commented out the lines that you should remove:
Set cn = New adodb.Connection
' cn.ConnectionString = "provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;data source= db1.mdb"
cn.Open constr ' constr is a connection string
sqlsql = "delete * from [DO] where no = " & "'" & dono.Text & "'"
cn.Execute sqlsql
' Do
' rr.Delete
' rr.MoveNext
'
' Loop Until (rs.EOF)
' rr.Close
' Set rr = Nothing
sql = "select * from DO where [NO]= " & dono.Text
doadodc.RecordSource = sql
doadodc.Refresh
MsgBox ("Record Deleted")
As you haven't answered the question about the data type of the "no" field, I don't know if you should keep the apostrophes in the query or not.

Ok, so then the constr variable that is supposed to contain the connection string doesn't? Don't use it then.
campbells wrote: and i cant remove this because it will not delete anything from my program...but i think i found the error here... when i use this code it will totally delete my whole table record... i think because i set
rr = DB.OpenRecordset("DO"), but is it possible to set rr = DB.OpenRecordset("delete * from [DO] where NO = " & dono.Text)?? i mean put sql in it.. it not really working actually.
I think that you should read up a bit on what SQL queries do and how the Recordset object works. If you want to delete the records using SQL, you don't use a recordset at all. If you want to delete the records using a recordset, you only use a select query to specify what the recordset contains.

What you are using is the command type TableDirect, meaning that you open the entire table. If you use an SQL query instead, you will be using the command type Text, meaning that the query is used to select the records for the result.
campbells wrote: ACtually my SQL to select specific record only
delete * from [DO] where NO = " & dono.Text
No, that is not a query to select records, that is a query to delete records.

Please don't remove the original post and delete your postings. You have just made the entire thread totally incomprehensible.

Hello,
This sounds simple and yet I am lost as to how to get this to work.
I need to get a public class (CLASS 1) with no user interface to be able to write in another Form's textBox, however I am unable to do so. I can get text to show up on initialization based on my new() call, however any subsequent timer based updates to my textbox does not write anything; I do however see my debug message at the console.
How to I get 1 class to be able to write to a text box in another class ?
Here is sample code
<pre>
Public Class EXTERNAL
Private _Timer As Timer = Nothing
Private Const TIMER_INTERVAL As Long = 5000L
Public Sub StartTimer()
_Timer.Change(0, TIMER_INTERVAL)
End Sub
Public Sub New()
ReadSchedule()
_Timer = New Timer(New TimerCallback(AddressOf timertrigger), Nothing, Timeout.Infinite, Timeout.Infinite)
StartTimer()
End Sub
Public Sub ReadSchedule()
Dim qq As Info
For Each qq In Collection
Form2.TextBox1.AppendText(Date.Now & vbTab & qq.Name)
Next
End Sub
Public Sub timertrigger(ByVal state As Object)
Dim currentTime As DateTime = DateTime.Now
Console.WriteLine(Date.Now & " Debug message loop ")
Form2.TextBox1.appendText(Date.Now & " Debug message loop ")
End Sub
End Class
</pre>
Upon initialising my CLASS EXTERNAL with a new in my form2,
form2.textbox1 has the initial values from ReadSchedule() ... however when the timer hits (every 5 seconds), I see a console output for my debug message, but the form2.textbox1 does not change.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely

IMO a better way would be to have the class fire an event and then in the event handler of the host object (the form that creates the instance of your class) handle the event and write the text to the text box. You can pass the text via an event argument from your class to the host object.
Keeping in mind with the important tenants of OOP, you should build your classes with the intent to keep them completely isolated components and fully encapsulate them and what they do from anything else. Building a class that makes a direct connect (as your code does) to something else (the text box) tightly couples that class to that implementation is therefore violates good OOP principals. It makes it hard to reuse, it makes it hard to unit test and it makes it hard to maintain.
BTW, the reason you are not seeing anything happen on the host form is because you are referencing the text box NOT an instance of that text box. You could TRY passing an instance of the form into your class contrsuctor and referencing that in your timer function but then you would be violating more than good OOP because you would be acting on a GUI component outside the thread that created it.

I am trying to get used to with automated data ui generation tools in vs2005. I generated an input ui just by dragging detailed view of an table from data sources pane. It created binded sources and even a navigator for data source. everything is fine up to here but i just dont like the names of controls generated. is it possible to change naming style of these auto generated controls automatically?
for example: FirstNameTextBox -> txtFirstName
|

Nope, not as far as I know.
Some third party add on tools DO allow you some level of customization to the emitted code they create though, that's what makes them more attractive than using the 'free' stuff included in the IDE.
