I am currently writing an application in VB.Net that requires me to deal with TIFF-JPEG Compression format, I have done some research on this and as far as I know GDI+ does not support this format. Does anyone know if there is a way around this problem either with or without a third party plug-in? Ideally I would like to avoid using third party plug-in if possible, but if not, can anyone recommend me a good third party plug-in that support this. I need to be able to do the follwoing:
1. Convert the TIFF-JPEG compression file into another format like bitmap or JPEG that GDI+ support.
2. The user will then be able to do whatever editing they need to do on the image (I have handled this part already).
3. Convert the edited image back into TIFF with JPEG compression format.
Any help or advise would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.

You do not have a choice. You must use a third party image library (not a plugin) to handle these types of images. GDI+ does not support them.

Agreed with Dave and the 3rd party approach would probably be the easiest to implement.
You might be able to "strip logic" out of a free program that has this functionality already. Maybe check into Paint.Net (not sure if the prog. is open source), but something like that. Check CodePlex as well.

Hi,
I have created a table in ms-access using VB.NET like below.
ADOXtable.Name = "ACN_CHARX_INSTANCE"
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("LOGICAL_DB_NAME", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 32)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("DIM_NAME", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 32)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_NAME", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_TABLE", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_VALUE_COL", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("VALUES_UNIQUE", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_ORDER_COL", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_ORDER", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("CHARX_NUMERIC_COL", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
ADOXtable.Columns.Append("BITMAP_COL", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 128)
cat.Tables.Append(ADOXtable)
After that i gave a primary key like below,
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "LOGICAL_DB_NAME")
But now i want to add composite key for this table..I added the code like the below..
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "LOGICAL_DB_NAME", "DIM_NAME", "CHARX_NAME")
But after executing this code, the key is allocated for Logical_Db_name field only.
Please share your ideas about how to create composite key using VB.NET...
Thanks,
Sivakumar.M.

Instead of putting all the column names in one line, I think you have to call Append again with the 2nd column, and again for the 3rd that you want to add as part of the key.
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "LOGICAL_DB_NAME")
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "DIM_NAME")
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "CHARX_NAME")

Thanks for your reply...if i give like below as u advised,
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "LOGICAL_DB_NAME")
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "DIM_NAME")
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "CHARX_NAME")
ADOXtable.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "CHARX_TABLE")

Well, I didn't say I tested it. I said I think you may have to do something like that. Try reading the documentation on ADOX's Key.Append method. You may have to supply other information to the Append method, like foreign table names and columns.
|

|
|

Something like this?
key1 = New ADOX.key
key1.Name = "PrimaryKey"
key1.Type = ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary
key1.Columns.Append "LOGICAL_DB_NAME"
key1.Columns.Append "DIM_NAME"
key1.Columns.Append "CHARX_NAME"
ADOXtable.Keys.Append key1
Note the similarity with yesterdays index question - have a look at the ADOX object library.

Hi all,
I have an application in Visual Basic 6.0, which spools text to a text file and then prints. After printing file will be deleted. But here, I couldn't know printer status. Is printing over or still printing...I couldn't know. If I know, I wont delete the file. If that is single file, then I can adjust, but continually 10 files will be printed.
All I want to know the status of the Printer...Please help me out.

Why are you using VB6 ? It really sucks. And, it's unsupported. If you want VB6 help, you should put it in the subject line, so you only attract people who have been developing long enough to remember what that was.

No, no. It's "people who are still young enough to remember what that was."

Christian, (i'm sure i'll get slammed for this but...)
I'm confused by your question of "Why are you using VB6". While I agree that vb6 and dotnet are night in day in comparison, I'm sure you aware that a developer's tools are not always up to them. If his company has many many applications written in vb6, then it's not always possible to do a mass conversion spending time and resources to do so...finding alternatives to ocx's that were being used, ramp up time learning dotnet stuff replacing the vb6 etc. Not to mention the amount of testing that would need to occur testing the new versions of an existing app as well as possible distribution considerations (installing the app and ms framework on possibly thousands of computers).
Now if the above is not the case and the developer went into vb6 willingly then yes he should be questioned on his choices.
My company has a website written with asp and vb6 dlls. Website has thousands of pages on it and would take years to rewrite in asp.net. $$$$ talks and other projects are more important...

Agreed. Yet, unless this is a legacy project, the question may become, why does your work use VB6 ?
nlarson11 wrote: Now if the above is not the case and the developer went into vb6 willingly then yes he should be questioned on his choices.
And that's why I asked why he's using it, rather than flat out saying 'you should never use VB6'. I know sometimes people have to use it, but I'd say the majority of people I ask that to, on these forums, are not in that boat. A lot actually are surprised they can get VB.NET for free, and are happy to hear it.

vb6 does not expose that itself. You will need to use an API call to check the status. just google "how to check printer status in vb6". it will give you the results you ask for.

Hi,
I know this question is posted million of times and i search on the internet for very long time for the solutions but to no avail.
I want to create a table (called "Customers") in a Microsoft Access database and then insert/delete records into the table and update the table. The table shall have 3 columns:
ID
Customer Name
Customer Address
I know i need to make the "ID" column as an autonumber and a primary key, as i need to insert and delete records and update the table.
I am using the Visual basic 2008 Express edition and quite familar with the OledBcommand. I greatly appreciate if there is any kind, helpful and generous expert out there who can advise me the VB code for this using "Oledbcommand".
Thank you very much.

If you issue the following command to the Access database, using the oledbCommand and ExecuteNonQuery
CREATE TABLE Customers ([Id] COUNTER, [Customer Name] TEXT(60), [Customer Address] TEXT(255))

Hi Steve,
I need the [Id] to be primary key, as i need to insert new records and delete records into the Access database table and finally update the Access database table.
The code:
" CREATE TABLE Customers ([Id] COUNTER, [Customer Name] TEXT(60), [Customer Address] TEXT(255)) "
seems does not make [Id] as primary key.
Pls kindly advise me. Thanks.

Hi All,
I built a program for Creating Entry for running my application to startup. But windows defunder shows it spyware.
Description:
This program has potentially unwanted behavior.
Advice:
Permit this detected item only if you trust the program or the software publisher.
Resources:
regkey:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\\ABCD
runkey:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\\ABCD
file:
D:\Program Files\ABCD\ABCD.exe
Category:
Not Yet Classified
So please give me the solution for resolving this problem.
If you can think then I Can.

ignore defender, or abandon this functionality. IF you want to make your app run on startup, put it in the startup group of the start menu.

The was tagged as "Potentially unwanted" because applications normally do not modify the Run key. Really, the only time that key should be modified would be at installation time of your app, not run-time.
