Assuming the .NET Framework 2.0, you're looking for the DriveInfo[^] class and it's TotalSize property.
In using .NET 1.x, you can get it using the WMI Win32_LogicalDisk class and the System.Management namespace.

I need to parse a string that contain the following formats:
xxxxxxxxx + <space> + nn + nn //ignore the rest
xxxxxx //a series of strings
Having gone through the .split method it seems to be suitable for this type of task, but what algorithm(s) would you suggest for implementing it?

If your goal is something more complex than 'break each bunch of characters that doesn't contain a space into a string', you probably want to use regular expressions.

Hi!
I would like to know if anybody has a source where you can send data through an already established connection by hooking into it?
Greetings .. Mik

You can't do that by "hooking into" the existing socket. There's no way to get at the socket once it's been created by another app.
You can, however, write a proxy server, where your application can connect to your server, then your server forwards the requests on to the real game server. Then you've got a "man in the middle" way of looking at all the traffic and injecting your own.

The other solution I can think of is an NDIS driver (similar to the way software based firewalls hook into network traffic). But they are fiddly to write as you get the packets at a really base level fresh off the network before anything has had a chance to process them.

Yeah, I didn't even want to go there for this.
10 bucks Aussie says this question is for some kind of game overlay!

I wrote one some years ago in C.

Hello,
Using VB.NET, I have populated a dataset that reads records from table tblCustomer that resides on the network (SQL Server 7.0). How do I take the records from that dataset(SQLDataset), and store it in a local table called tblCustomer(SQL Express Edition)?
Keeping in mind, my tables, tblCustomer, has about 52 columns, so if I can some how just import the data in one shot as opposed to using the .NewRow methods...
myNetworkSqlDataAdapter.Fill(SQLDataset)
Thanks in advance.

The program files need not be on the primary drive, and the name of the folder will be localised for the language version of Windows.
You need to read the following documentation:
* Environment.GetFolderPath()[^] - This has a code sample you might find useful
* Environment.SpecialFolder[^] - This has details of all the other folders to which you can find the location.

how do i retrieve data from sql and cut it to 20 characters to display it in a text box. The data in about 100 chatacters in the database but i only need 20.
Please help
|
|
|
|
|
Off the top of my head I'd say pull the data in as normal & perform editing on it using string methods.
Are you looking for a particular bit of string in the data you're pulling through? How do you know which 20 characters it is? The first 20? A bit more explanation please.
|
|
|
|
|
I am looking for the first 20 characters. from character 1 to 20.
Hope this is clear.
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming your reading the data as string, use the Substring method on your data e.g. txtResult.Text = strSQLData.Substring(0, 20).

thank you.
It works perfect.

hi,
how can i save a word file into database and import that file into word and do editing and again save into the database
|
|
|
|
|
Wouldn't it be easier to save the Word files as is and just reference their paths/build a schema of the file system where they are stored? Your ability to edit & save the files would be much easier as well.

How can i create a document in VB.Net.
i have used ritch textbox and text boxes.
how the memo field contained in the database is placed in the ritchtextbox in a special format
|

Word will not retrieve documents out of a database. You'll have to write some mechanism to retrieve the document, save it to a temp file, open it in Word, wait for the user to finish editing it, resave it back to the temp file, then your app can put the edited copy back in the database.
It's FAR more managable to just save the document in a file system somewhere and save the path to that file in the database.

Amen to that, why does everyone want to create five extra steps to do something simple?
