Thanks, it worked.

Suggest me what should I do to verify that a file has modified by its hashvalue.

Thanks.

You need to compare the hash value of the file against the value you got at a previous point in time, i.e. keep a record of all the hash values when you first index/create/whatever, the file.

I do not exactly understand what you mean.

To verify if some file was modified, I would compare the now new computed hash value with the one
of a previous computed hash value (for example at creation time of the file).

To compare these 2 values you could to a string or byte array compare.

Is this the answer you were looking for?

Actually I want to check whether file is modified,infected or corrupted by some viruses or malascious programs. Since you all told to compare hashvalues with previous computed one, I have no hashvalue at previous time.
So if you have any idea to do so suggest me..

Thanks.

Your stuffed then without knowing the original hash!

Use some virus checking software then.......there are plenty of them on the net, some free, some paid for.

If you don't know the hash value of the uncorrupted version of this file, then you will not be able to check for some file corruption.

In a good anti-virus-software there are many ways to reach this goal (in general they combine the following steps):

1. (very simple) Check the last-modified property of the file.
2. Do a first scan of all files and store the hash value of these files, after that the software
can check if the file was modified.
3. Scan the file data for some known virus-signatures (short byte sequences extracted from an infected file/virus).
4. Do a heuristic file scan.

Thanks for your help. I got what I wanted.
But I have still some doubts. As you suggested the approach, I have confusin in (3) Scan the file data for some known virus-signatures (short byte sequences extracted from an infected file/virus).

Could you explain this??

Covean27-Jan-10 4:34

For example this is the signature of EICAR-testvirus/testfile.

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

If you insert this string in a file (for ex. in a textfile), every anti-virus program should find an infection of this file! (but its not dangerous in any way)
See this wikipedia article.

This quote I found somewhere in the net:
"A virus signature is an unique string of bits, or the binary pattern, of a virus. The virus signature is like a fingerprint in that it can be used to detect and identify specific viruses. Anti-virus software uses the virus signature to scan for the presence of malicious code."

I have use a datagrid in my sales software, now when the user select any item and qty i want to calculate its value in another columns.

say for example:
Col "Items"
Col "Qty"
Col "Rate"
Col "Total Value" - I want to calculate the total value.

Thanks,

Here is a code snippet that I found online a while ago that helps:

Try this code in DataGrid CellEndEdit Events (note: this will sum the items
not multiply. So you will just modify it to check whether the cells have values and then multiply the values. i am to lazy to retype it)

Dim iTotal As Integer = 0
With DataGrid1
For i As Integer = 0 To .ColumnCount - 2
If Not IsDBNull(.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(i).Value) Then
iTotal += .Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(i).Value
End If
Next
.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(.ColumnCount - 1).Value = iTotal
End With

Retrieve data from listview to textbox (VBA Access 2007)

26-Jan-10 20:46

Hi Sohil,

You can use the Datagridview_CellEndEdit() for manipulating the calculations. For example, from the below, suppose your "qty" column number is 3 or your "rate" column is 4 then, it can be...like the following

Private Sub MyDataGrid1_CellEndEdit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles MyDataGrid1.CellEndEdit

If e.ColumnIndex = 3 or e.columnIndex = 4 Then
Try
MyDataGrid1.CurrentRow.Cells("total value").Value = MyDataGrid1.CurrentRow.Cells("qty").Value * MyDataGrid1.CurrentRow.Cells("rate").Value
Catch ex As Exception

End Try
End If

End Sub

Hi Experts,
I'm quite new to VB6 & I need to know how to update a field using ADODC in VB6.I think it can't be very heard.but I'm unable to find my error in my code.These are my file Details...

Database - Access97
Database name - db1
file name - FileTbl
fields - Number,Date
Textboxes - txtNum,txtDate

First I need to enter the number & date in textboxes & when I press the ok button, i need to find the record in field "Number", with the value which I entered in the txtNum & need to update field "date" with the value in txtDate.That's all.
I think it's very simple,but I tried many more times..Still I'm unable to understand my mistake. Confused | :confused:

Please Help Me...This is my code...

Private Sub cmdOk_Click()
    Dim conn As Adodb.Connection
    Dim rs As Adodb.Recordset
    
    Set conn = New Adodb.Connection
    Set rs = New Adodb.Recordset

conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Documents and Settings\db1.mdb"

conn.Open

rs.Open "SELECT * FROM FileTbl WHERE Number =" & Me.txtNum 
rs!Date = Me.txtDate
rs.Update

rs.Close
conn.Close
Set cn = Nothing

End Sub

Thanks a lot.... Smile | :)

Thanking you !!!

New to VB6?? Don't bother. Stop now before you pick up a bunch of very bad habits and start by learning VB.NET.

VB6 is long since dead and is no longer supported by MS.

I also refuse to help on VB6 questions anymore because I believe it just promots people to want MS to keep the thing around and working on future versions of Windows.
