Please post your code.

what i want to do is to create a voicespeech that will "say" a message that i have already written.. so what i'm doing is that i'm including "using SpeechLib;" and then when i want to choose "SpVoice" method it won't show up .. so i couldn't use it.. that's the problem

OK, lets try the obvious stuff first:
1. Have you added the Assembly to the project (as per the first picture on the answer here http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vbpowerpacks/thread/87c15a18-dd30-4ebd-9775-3777c3225168[^]
2. Sometimes [often] the intellisense on Visual Studio goes wrong. Have you tried restarting.
If you've tried 1 & 2 you'll need to post some code so we can see what might have happened.Antoine de Saint-Exupery: Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

Hello guys ..... I have developed my own POS System using C# which supports POS Printer and Normal printers ... But this days in our country the Government came with a new POS Printer which is called BNC Printer. I think what makes this printer different from others is that it has a network connection with the government which sends every transaction to their Database. But my POS System is not unable to print using this printer. Even the Printer doesn't have a driver ... So any body who has an idea on how to work on this Printer, Please help me??? ... Other wise my System will be out of use a little bit latter ... Please help me .. Thank you.

I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that. All Toronto weekends should be extremely wet until we get it automated in regular forums, not just QA.

There are some software companies whose POS System works on this new printer!!! ... So there must be some dll file or a code which helps to print !!! any clue??
|
|

sure, just look at how they do it. Maybe the printer works with an existing driver. Maybe there is a driver you don't know about. And maybe there is sufficient documentation and some company did create a driver, so you can go and negotiate with them.
Whatever it is, enforcing the use of a specific printer and not providing a solution to the driver situation makes no sense.

Since this is a business , no body is not willing to give what they got!!! It is like find the dll file from some where else then write a code by your self..... @ least if we got any file,documentation or dll file .. I will probalby do the rest of work my self ... But do u think that I cant get any documentation online??

How could I possibly know, you did not even mention the manufacturer nor exact model?

U must b kidding ... am tlking abt a printer
|
|
|
|

and how is this printer connected?
|
|
|
|

until now wat i've in mind is zat .... it is a cash register printer by its self ... so zat u can work on it alone with out using computer ... but we wanted 2 use z cash register's printer .... until now wat i heard is that it has no driver ... but there are other companies who wrote the code .... so if u have any clue please helpp me .. thnx
|
|
|
|

That sounds like an interesting challenge ...
Question: This device is a cash register, as seen very often in shops?
If so, some of them have a RS232 interface for communication (loading PLU´s, sales info ...) and also a communication software (I had to deals with such a device 15 years ago, so my knowledge is definitly NOT on the state of the art) for transferring data to/from the device.
If not, I have no more ideas.
|
|
|
|
|
what u r saying is right .... am talking about transfering data from/to the cash register .... but z printer has no driver ... but if i got the interface ... can i transfer my datas????
thnx a lot

Hi,
AFAIK a lot of applications can work on each PC without an explicit installation. I do it all the time.
It depends on the EXE's dependencies; if you don't need external DLL files (other than the ones you may ship with the EXE and put in the same folder), if you don't need a .NET Framework (or are absolutely sure it is already present), then copying a folder is all that is required. You may need to take care of folder access rights, but that is about it.

this taken from another forum i'm on, however they dont seem to have an answer.It is 2 posts i have put into this 1 post to show the progression.
POST 1
Hello, i'm trying to create an XML database to hold names.
It's for a game based on film making. I have 3 forms 1 main form 1 for naming the film 1 for archives (to view what films you have made in the past)
Basically in the name the film form you add the name into a text box, to avoid using a database orginally as i don't understand them fully i used a list.
NAMING FORM
using System;<br />
using System.Collections.Generic;<br />
using System.ComponentModel;<br />
using System.Data;<br />
using System.Drawing;<br />
using System.Linq;<br />
using System.Text;<br />
using System.Windows.Forms;<br />
<br />
namespace Pmanager<br />
{<br />
public partial class Shoot : Form<br />
{<br />
string moviename;<br />
public List<string> FilmNames = new List<string>();<br />
<br />
public Shoot()<br />
{<br />
InitializeComponent();<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
moviename = textBox1.Text;<br />
<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
listmethod();<br />
foreach (string Item in FilmNames)<br />
{<br />
MessageBox.Show(Item + "\r\n");
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
public void listmethod()<br />
{<br />
<br />
FilmNames.Add(moviename);<br />
<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}
ARCHIVES

public partial class Archieves : Form<br />
{<br />
Shoot shoot = new Shoot();<br />
public Archieves()<br />
{<br />
InitializeComponent();<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void Archieves_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
foreach (string Item in shoot.FilmNames)<br />
{<br />
textBox1.Text += Item + "\r\n";<br />
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
<br />
}<br />
}
However it became apparent that why i try to view this list in the archives it wont store the data and writes over it because I am recalling it. So I believe I need a database. I chose to use XML as i dont seem to understand sql to well
in my program main I'm creating a new XML database, this works fine. But i'm not really sure how to store the film names from the txtbox input in naming and displaying in archives.
So I'm unsure where to go, documentation I've looked at doesn't really give an indication, so if anyone could help or if there is a way of storing the list between forms it would be much appreciated.

POST 2
Ok so i started working on xml databases and I got one working that both writes and reads, However it will only write or read 1 field and any added fields on top will overwrite the preceding one.I know this is because I am asking it to only write 1 xml string "ID" so i tried to add a list into the equation and now i'm fully stuck.
