get text from html format

22-Jun-09 4:12

These two links may help. The first from MSDN should have VB Code Samples, the second, if memory serves is C# but is nonetheless an excellent article on this sort of thing.

If they are of no help, what you are trying to do is essentially the same as a 'Drawing' application. Allowing users to place shapes on a surface and move them around. So Google for drawing applications vb.net, sketchpad vb.net and similar phrases.

You can parse the HTML if it is XML, using the DOM. Or you can use regex.

Well, it's really pretty easy. USe the DOM ( XmlDocument class ) to parse XML, or use the RegEx object to run a regular expression. In both cases, there's tons of info on the web.

I think that to get any help you are going to have to reword your question. Currently it makes no sense to me.

Problem with passing and getting values to variables in vb6

23-Jun-09 1:05

You show us what you have done so far. Not all of it, just the bit you can't get to work, together with a full explanation of how it doesn't work, error messages etc.

Then if anyone sees a problem they will probably offer some help.

Dear All,
I have a problem whle declaring input and output variable to pass a 'C' based Dll.
The Dll Api is as follows:

int rw_polling(int PortNumber,unsigned char *SelSysCode, unsigned char *IDm, unsigned char *PMm,int *Response)

Function :Send Polling Command to Card
Return :TRUE = succeeded FALSE = failed
Input :
*PortNumber : com port number (1-8)
*SelSysCode(2bytes) : systemcode of target card
Output :
*IDm(8bytes) : IDm from card
*PMm(8bytes) : PMm from card
*Response : 0 = succeeded
1 = Reader Writer is not open
2 = no response (ACK) from reader/writer
3 = check sum error of received data
10 = card is not detected

Problem:

In the above function I want to pass values of the variable
Input Variables
1) PortNumber=1
2) unsigned char *SelSysCode = 2bytes i.e FF and FF
Output variables
3)IDm (8 Bytes)
4) PMm (8 Bytes)
5) Response.

How I tried:
in Declarations:

Declare Function rw_polling Lib "RCS962INSPCT.dll" (ByVal PortNumber As Long, ByRef SelSysCode As Long, ByRef IDm As Long, ByRef PMm As Long, ByRef Response As Long) As Long

While calling through VB Form:

Dim PortNumber As Long
Dim SelSysCode(1) As Byte
Dim IDm(7) As Byte
Dim PMm(7) As Byte
Dim Response As Long
Dim ReturnCode As Long

'PortNumber = cmbComPort.ItemData(Me.cmbComPort.ListIndex)
PortNumber=1
'Here I want to pass value of 2 bytes i.e FF and FF
SelSysCode(0) = &HFF
SelSysCode(1) = &HFF

ReturnCode = rw_polling(PortNumber, VarPtr(SelSysCode(0)), VarPtr(IDm(0)), VarPtr(PMm(0)), Response)

Result: Function is returning false
Response: 10

If Response = 0 Then
pp = "succeeded"
ElseIf Response = 1 Then
pp = "Reader Writer is not open"
ElseIf Response = 2 Then
pp = "no response (ACK) from reader/writer"
ElseIf Response = 3 Then
pp = "check sum error of received data"
ElseIf Response = 10 Then
pp = "card is not detected"
End If
If ReturnCode = 0 Then
txtMsg.Text = Trim(txtMsg.Text) & vbCrLf & pp
txtMsg.Text = Trim(txtMsg.Text) & vbCrLf & "Pooling Fail"
Else
txtMsg.Text = Trim(txtMsg.Text) & vbCrLf & pp
txtMsg.Text = Trim(txtMsg.Text) & vbCrLf & "Pooling Success"
End If

What I want is:

by which way can I pass the value (FF and FF 2bytes) Input Variable for SelSysCode.
I am able to caputre the Response also.
Please anybody help me in this regarding in VB6

Why are you still using VB6 in 2009 ?

This is my normal reaction until one of the junior devs found out that passing a struct from C#/VB.net to a C DLL fails whereas using VBA/VB6 works Dead | X|

. I found this so distressing I refused to have anything to do with the project.

Why?? The jobs will queue up on each machine until the printer is no longer busy with the previous job. Then, it'll print the next job in the queue automatically.
