I am using AxWebBrowser in a VB.Net project, the program may run a few days without browser closing. I found serious memory leak, one night the memory usage could be increaced from 500 M to over 2 G. I tested with ANTS Profiler, it shows the class (Namespace SYSTEM, Class name INT32, Module name mscorlib.dll) does not release memory (live count: 40, total number of object created 3,562,977). I tried to use dispose, but it looks do not work.
I really apprecite if someone could help.

You'll have to do some more digging into your code. There's something else that your creating, but not Disposing when you're done with it. These include any Graphics objects, Brushes, Pens, anything that holds onto an unmanaged resource, like a Handle, any form that you show using ShowDialog() needs to be Dispose when you done with it, ...

Anything is possible, it's one's attitude that becomes the limiting factor.

Of course it is possible. You just need to think about the problem for a while because the solution is actually quite simple.

Oops! Sorry, I already told him he was wrong. But I didn't know the solution was already here.

All you have to do is Google for "convert number to words" and you'll find, literally, thousands of examples of this ubiquitous homework assignment.

Hello
I am setting a key value in the system registry. However, I would like this removed when the user uninstalls the program.
The method I am using to set it is below:
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\CodeRedInstalled", "ITSolution", "Is Installed")
I have used window installer to install the program. However, when the uninstalls from the add remove program, I would like this key value to be deleted.
Is there anyway to do this?
Many thanks,
Steve

I need to find the right code for saving some data ont a text file. I need this in my Alarm Clock application. There is an object, Exit buttin, where after clicking on it, all the itmes in a lick box control will be saved onto a text file called AlarmClock.txt. The items in the list box are times entered by a user in the list box. The format of the time is like this in each items of list box: "12:12 PM" or "01:24 AM".
Here are the codes I wrote, but they do not work:
Private Sub btnExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExit.Click
FileOpen(1, "..\AlarmClock.txt", OpenMode.Output)
While Not EOF(1)
FileOpen(1, "..\AlarmClock.txt", OpenMode.Output)
For iX = 0 To (Me.lstTime.Items.Count - 1)
PrintLine(1, Me.lstTime.Items(iX))
Next
End While
FileClose(1)
Me.Hide()
End Sub
Thank you,
Vahdat

have a problem converting the string to integer. tis is my SQL statement: Dim sqlStr As String = ("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM EventTable where ActionName = '" + TxtActionName.Text + "'"). i need to know the number of COUNT. i can i get the count from my sql statement and use it in my code?
|
|

|

Try this:
SELECT COUNT(*) as ActionCount FROM EventTable where ActionName = '" + TxtActionName.Text + "'"
run the query and read out the ActionCount column from the cursor.
Hope this helps

Ahh!  It happened again, I was coding and I try to debug and I get an error saying:
<br />
InvalidOperation Exception was unhandled<br />
<br />
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.<br />
I undid everything that I typed after the last debug and it still freaked out. Everytime this happens I have to start over on my project! What happened!
Please help! Thank you!

There's really no way for us to tell what happened since we know nothing of your project or the line that the error occurs on. Basically, it's saying that you're trying to call a method or use a property of an object when you don't even have an instance of it to call a method on.
Click the "Show all files" button in the Solution Explorer and open the Designer file for the form that you're having the problem with. You should be able to find the problem code in there.

I just get an error, that's all. It doesn't say which line.
And, I don't see anything in the Designer file!

Ok, I found the problem, something is wrong with this variable:
Private PrintFont As New Font(RichTextBox.Font, RichTextBox.Font.Size)
The above code sets the font used when printing a document.
If you can please tell me why this variable caused an error, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for your help!

It won't run outside of a method. Put it in the event handler that handles the printing as
Dim PrintFont As New Font(RichTextBox.Font, RichTextBox.Font.Size)
I'm not sure of why the error occurs, I think it has to do with the InitializeComponent() call of the form - you're getting a NullReferenceException as the font has been declared before the
RichTextBox has and the compiler doesn't "think" the RichTextBox exists yet.
At least that's what I think, I stand under correction but it makes sense.

You used a lousy name for your RichTextBox. Don't use the name of a class as an instance variable of that same class. Rename your RichTextBox to something like myRichTextBox or NarrativeRTB or something useful. Do NOT use existing class names.

It's called "Example", dude! I don't use generic terms like that when I'm programming! 
|

BS examples like that get you the answers I gave you. The proper way to do it is to copy and paste your REAL code. Don't use "examples" and don't just retype what you think is in your source files.
According to the error message, whatever variable you used for RichTextBox, doesn't point to an instance of anything. It's like you did this:
Dim rtb As RichTextBox
and tried to call a method on rtb. It'll give to the object instance error you got.

Hi,
I have an addin module plugged into Excel, which exposes some functions to do stuff.
Im need to call those function through some VB.Net code, but its failing without much help. Its a generic ole error returned, nothing useful at all.
If the workbook contains a function/macro, I can call that easy using the Excel.ExecuteExcel4Macro() line. But this doesnt seem to work for addins.
My code looks like this:
Dim ex As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application()<br />
...<br />
Do stuff<br />
...<br />
ex.ExecuteExcel4Macro("RUN(""ConvertData"")")<br />
ex.Visible = True<br />
<br />
The VB.Net program opens Excel as a COM object, post some data to it, then needs to call the functions in the addin.
Anyone know of the correct syntax, or can spot where Ive gone wrong?

Mark,
Try this:

The article is for Access 2000, but the code would be very similar.
(Without the Set statements of course.)
objExcel.Application.Run("atpvbaen.xla!lcm", 5, 2)

I want to pass the name of a worksheet to the Sheets.Select(name) function. I defined a public variable in the worksheet declaration and assigned the name to the sheet I want to select. I am getting an error subscript out of range.
Any suggestions. (is this possible?)
