How on earth does a radio work as a joystick ?

I'm glad that I'm not alone 
Maybe the word is misleading: Radio means an RC controller, which - in some cases - can be connected to the PC via cable. The port e.g. detects (still: how?) the signals of X-Y-Z and throttle.

If the controller has a USB connection available, then you shouldn't have a problem. But, if all it has is a joystick connection, you simplay have no choice but to buy the extra hardware to get it connected to the PC.

hi i'm try send an email message
using System.Net Name space
<br />
Dim MailMSG As New MailMessage<br />
Dim SMTPSetting As New SmtpClient<br />
<br />
'===========================<br />
Dim _To As String = "To Address"<br />
Dim _From As String = "moeErrorNotifier@Gmail.com"<br />
Dim _GmailPass As String = "Password"<br />
Dim _moeHost As String = "HostURL"<br />
Dim _GmailHost As String = "smtp.gmail.com"<br />
'============================<br />
<br />
With MailMSG<br />
.To.Add(_To)<br />
.From = New MailAddress(_From)<br />
.Body = "Test Body"<br />
.IsBodyHtml = True<br />
.Subject = "Test Subject"<br />
End With <br />
With SMTPSetting<br />
.Host = _GmailHost<br />

<br />
End With<br />
Try<br />
SMTPSetting.Send(MailMSG)<br />
Catch ex As Exception<br />
Throw ex<br />

this is how you should Do it
MailMessage mm = new MailMessage();
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
mm.From = new MailAddress("cc@gmail.com");
mm.To.Add(new MailAddress("cc@its.co.za"));
mm.To.Add(new MailAddress("cc@gmail.com"));
mm.Subject = "Hello";
mm.Body = "<p>This is the E-mail Test for !Booking System</p>";
mm.IsBodyHtml = true;
smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
smtp.EnableSsl = true;
System.Net.NetworkCredential NetworkCred = new System.Net.NetworkCredential();
NetworkCred.UserName = "cc@gmail.com";
NetworkCred.Password = "oops i cant give you";
smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
smtp.Credentials = NetworkCred;
smtp.Port = 587;
smtp.Send(mm);
dont forget
using System.Net.Mail;
in the Using.

the Example works Perfectly. give me your e-mail and send you a test mail.

Hello gurus,
am cofused right now.
I used this link Making TripleDES Simple in Visual Basic .NET[^]"> to do my encryption
and I have the following code section in my project to decrypt a data from database input:
datadapt = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
ds = New DataSet
datadapt.Fill(ds)
' ds.Tables.Add(dt)
'datGrid.DataSource = ds.Tables(0)
cn.Close()
'Dim ind As Integer
Dim dc As DataColumn = New DataColumn
Dim dRow As DataRow
dRow = dt.NewRow
Dim i As Integer
Dim by As Byte
' For Each dRow In ds.Tables("Lab").Rows
For Each dRow In ds.Tables(0).Rows
For Each dc In ds.Tables(0).Columns
'If dc.DataType.ToString() = "System.String" Then
If dRow(dc).ToString = "system.Byte" Then
decData = New cTripleDES(key, iv)
Dim str As String = dRow(dc).ToString
For i = 0 To str.Length - 1
by = Convert.ToByte(str(i))
Next
'Dim by() As Byte = StrToByteArray(dRow(dc))
dRow(dc.Caption) = decData.Decrypt(by)
'deRecData = decData.Decrypt(by)
'dt.Rows.Add(deRecData)
'ds.Tables.Add(dt)
End If
Next
Next
datGrid.DataSource = ds.Tables(0)
The for loop should be able to retrieve the data in the encrypted form and then decrypt it.
I dont know if am doing the right thing, where did I get it wrong?
Thanks for ur help.

The language contructs are no different than C#. The two languages are very closely related because they both target the same MSIL.

Hi,
I'm pulling an inividual byte out of a byte array (I can't change the array), and that one byte needs to be treated as an SByte. As soon as the byte's value is >127 I get an overflow error as it's outside the range of SByte, and it's not automatically treated as a negative number (as it would be in C#).
I've tried CType and CSByte but no luck. The convert class appaently has the same problem.
Is there a standard way of dealing with this?
As a workaround I'm creating a temporary SByte array with one element and using Buffer.BlockCopy to copy from the original array to that, but it seems very much a hack.

Hi Dave,
C# doesn't flag overflows, VB.NET optionally checks for overflows, and does so by default.
Choose project properties/Compile/AdvancedCompileOptions to turn it off.
Now you can freely store a byte into an sbyte.

Hi again Luc,
Well I think the code is now OK - I'm not getting any error, warnings or crashes!
If you have time, I'd appreciate your comments - the article is here[^]. Thanjs again ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

The problem I found was converting numbers that cause an overflow, and thus an exception. Whilst it is true that overflow checking may be turned off, I prefer not to. The code below should be self explanatory and solve the problem.
Public Function ConvertToSByte(ByVal b As Byte) As SByte
If b > 127 Then
Return (b - 256)
Else
Return b
End If
End Function

Pretty straightforward to do, what have you coded thus far to accomplish this?

A recent thread on one of the CP forums insisted BIOS datetime and Windows datetime are basically identical: change one, the other changes too.

BIOS and system date time go hand in hand. Hence, DateTime.Now is what you can use.
You are creating "evaluation version" sort of application I guess. Using system date for checking for expiry is not that safe approach (in fact most of approaches can be broken). You can use Registry to keep note of when the application was installed and then check if it has expired.

hi,thanks first,
ok,as per your saying,we can use registry..but i havnt worked on it..
can you tell me solution,,

I've got a C# article that's ready to publish, but I'm also wanting to include a full VB version of the code and I'm struggling with this bit (I'm not a native VBer!)
In the C# code I have an Enum, and a member of it is declared like this...
LOCL = ('L' << 24) + ('O' << 16) + ('C' << 8) + 'L'...by using the chars as values and bit shifting to get a UInteger.
Can this be replicated in VB?
[Edit] This appears to work but it feels a bit 'hacky'. Is this the best way in VB?
LOCL = (Asc("L") << 24) + (Asc("O") << 16) + (Asc("C") << 8) + Asc("L")[/Edit]

Hi Dave,
two comments:
- in the C# snippet you are using characters, and just assuming they are ASCII; if they were not, their higher byte wouldn't be zero, and clash with the surrounding characters.
- in the VB snippet the intention is clear, however this time you are using strings, not characters. A VB character literal is written as "L"c, however it works as is since ASC takes the first char of a string! I don't know how ASC would react on chars that aren't ASCII though.

Hi Luc,
Yeah, I'm aware of that - but in this particular sitauation they are guaranteed to be between 0 and 255 so ASCII is a safe assumption.
Would the VB be better as
LOCL = (Asc("L"c) << 24) + (Asc("O"c) << 16) + (Asc("C"c) << 8) + Asc("L"c)?

Yes, that is what I would write, but then I don't do VB either.
Anyway, I am not sure what your intentions are, maybe it should become a little method, with a for loop, and all. And maybe all you need is an irreversible hash as in String.GetHashCode()?
