No. We don't supply you with source code for anything. We'll help with any specific problems you have writing your own code, but we're not going to do your work for you.

Why on earth would anyone still use VB6 ? It's so dead that anything that was still going to be in use this far out, should have been converted to a real language, long ago.

I may be new to these forums, but I'm pretty sure that you will struggle to get help with that question. Even if your own intentions are honest, I'm not calling into question the legitimacy of your own project. But others that view these boards might not have the same things in mind.

You're going to have to precisely define what you mean by "access that program by internet". What does the app do?? Where do you want the code to run?? Do you want it to run on the server and just expose a user interface acrossed the internet, or do you want to download the app to the local machine and run it there??

Hi Dave,
By the help of you & mr.Johan I have completed this small project. But I have 3 more users located in different place. Not in LAN. Now my intention is, those users has to connect with my server, and through this program, they have to give entries and feed their data's.
For that what I have to do? Can you provide any samples to learn?
ThankYou

No need to download anything, just they have to connect with my server & run my program.
ThankYou

And what sort of services does this server expose? Is it a file server, web server, SQL Server, ftp server, ... What does this server host that the clients need to connect to??
If your app is already installed on these remote clients and you need them to connect to a SQL Server on your end, you need to expose the SQL Server using different methods other than normal access. Exposing an SQL Server directly to the internet is as about as safe as dousing it in gasoline and lighting a match.

Hi all,
I am newbie in vb.net and I have a simply (I think) quenstion.
I have tree Pictures Boxes and I want when the user clicks the button the first time the PictureBox1 to be filled and when the user clicks for the second time the PictureBox2 to be filled and so on.
I have succeed to doing that using if statement and I was wondering if I could do that by using a loop.
Thank you in advance

You could, but why would you want to?
If the reason is that you want a lot more pictureboxes than just 3, then it will be easier to create and place a new picturebox each time the user clicks the button.
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

Why would you need a loop?
If you wanted to fill all three pictureboxes every time the button was clicked, a loop might be useful, but not for individual fills.

I was thinking to avoid to write the same thing three times.
For example I am imaging that it could like the following:
for (i=0, i<3, i++)
PictureBoxi.Image = CropBitmap(GetWindowPicture(PictureBox2.Handle.ToInt32), 100, 100, 50, 50)
so the first time the result would be
PictureBox1.Image = CropBitmap(GetWindowPicture(PictureBox2.Handle.ToInt32), 100, 100, 50, 50)
the second
PictureBox2.Image = CropBitmap(GetWindowPicture(PictureBox2.Handle.ToInt32), 100, 100, 50, 50)
and the third time
the second
PictureBox3.Image = CropBitmap(GetWindowPicture(PictureBox2.Handle.ToInt32), 100, 100, 50, 50)
May I accomplised that in VB.NET, to create the full name of the Picturebox using a variable?

I'm afraid not.
You could put the pictureboxes into a collection and get at each like:
Dim activePicBox AS PictureBox = myPBCollection(i)

May be like this(in C#):
((PictureBox)(this.Controls["PictureBox"+i.ToString()]).Image
Not sure if doing things like these are recommended.

I am looking to retrieve a value from an existing file and copy it to a new one, for the sake of a header. The value is a date. I am using a mix of old and new files, some have the information I need and it has to be copied to the new file, some older files don't and new data will need to be written in it's place to the header.
The question is, can I use ->
If ('Old Chicken' Is Nothing) Then
'Fill the freezer'
Else
'Put Old Chicken In New Freezer'
End If
Or would it be sesible/is it acceptable to ->
Try
'To put old chicken in new freezer'
Catch As Exception
'Call it quits and just fill the freezer'
End Try
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The if/else approach. What if you get an exception in the try block? (Not because Old chicken is nothing but some other reason)

Good good. I'm pretty new to programming and VB especially. I'm just worried that the if/else would just throw an error if the object I was trying to acquire did not exist at all and wasn't just empty. Thus the code would exit anyway, the try/catch would solve this. But yes, I take your point, if there was any other error in this snippet, it would be rather sidelined.

Best would be to use if/else inside try/catch.

Maybe I should reword my question... All these answers are helpful (as a n00b anything that helps me learn is a good thing, so thanks).
But when I test for the is MyChicken = 'null' (or similar), I get a NullReferenceException. I'm guessing because the old files header does not include a reference to the 'Chicken' I seek, so it looks for the chicken doesn't find it and exits code, saying it's not there, not even bothering to check for it's 'nullness'.
I guess I mean...
If MyChicken is there at all
'Put it in the freezer'
Else
'Create a chicken and put in in the new freezer'
End If
If you'll excuse all the poultry references.

You're on the right track though.
The best way to go is to start of with the Try Catch block and MsgBox(ex.ToString) in the Catch clause. Turning on line numbers in your code editor is also a good idea.
Then when you get these NullReferenceExceptions, you'll know exactly which object is causing the error.
Next thing is combining checks, on separate lines, so that you always first check for Is Nothing, and only then for anything else like null or empty strings, etc.
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

Thanks for the proTip. I'm testing the object key for 'is nothing', I figured it would be the best place to start, this is where I get the error, on the first line of said conditional (if null etc...).
I have since discovered .contains, useful. Having jumped from C++/C all these VB short cuts and lack of pointers is giving me much fun/joy/sarcasm. Thanks for all your help though guys, there are some good snippets there.

Depending upon how you are pulling the value before comparing it, you may be able to check for nulls with the following statement:
If myValue Is DBNull.Value Then
'Handle the Null value
Else
'Value was not null
End If
Hope this helps.
