How exactly do you think changing the extension on a file name will affect the content? Follow the link I provided and see what you need to do to read a cursor file and interpret (and display) its content. .NET even contains a class to do most of the work for you: Cursor Class (System.Windows.Forms)[^].

Thank you I'll refer to it! But I tried to load a cursor file using these methods, it didn't give any errors but at runtime it says that the cursor file is damaged. I even tried system cursor files! I just want to give a preview of the cursor to the user, changing the mouse pointer is enough, don't need to view a preview on a picture box.

What is a filr? Those examples should work with a valid .ico file of the correct size.

Yeah youre right i should just stick to the lessons rather than try to do new things, that was files by the way, i've mistakenly typed it as filr! Thanks!😐

Could have been some new kind of file-type I never heard of

Not everyone is here to learn; some people get impatient if they don't make any progress. If you change your username to something that I can remember, then I'll try to be answering with a bit more detail next time

In a vb.net 2010 application, I have the following code setup so far:
Dim _dtEmailaddress As DataTable = SelectEmailAddress(_dtPersonID(0)("SPA_PersonID"))
Dim _email As String = String.Empty
If _dtEmailaddress.Rows.Count > 0 Then
If IsDBNull((_dtEmailaddress(0)("email"))) Then
_letter = _letter.Replace("&SPA_EMAIL.EVAL", "")
Else
_letter = _letter.Replace("&SPA_EMAIL.EVAL", _dtEmailaddress(0)("email"))
End If
End If
I need to be able to check for email addresses that end with '@opd.org' in the reference called _dtEmailaddress(0)("email").
Thus can you show me the vb.net code so I would know how to use only email addresses that end with '@opd.org'?

Pull the email address from the relevant field and check for the address you want to test against.
|
|
|
|

In addition to Richard's answer...
Becasue _email variable is type of string, you can use string functions, such as EndsWith, Contains, etc.
If _email.EndsWith("@opd.org") Then
End If

Thanks! That answers my question!

How to create a school database using own code. the program should update and display

Hello
I am working with a piece of VB6 code that reads data from an instrument through the USB port.
The instrument uses an FTID USB chip and the data is read by the host byte by byte from the USB bus using a driver supplied by FTID.
Each data byte is returned as a string character and then converted using the function Asc(string).
The problem is that on Windows 10 machines running chinese, the data returned is corrupted.
I think this may have something to do with the longer (2 bytes per character instead of one) character coding used for chinese but I have not been able to understand the issue.
Any suggestions?

Use AscW instead.
AscW returns the Unicode code point for the input character. … The returned value is independent of the culture and code page settings for the current thread.
(The documentation is for VB.NET, but the same comments apply to VB6.)

Thanks Homer.
I tried AscW(string) but I still get the same error. For example:
instead of reading 0 22 129 0 22
in the chinese PC I get 63 63 63 0 0
I also tried changing the regional settings in the PC to English but that did not work either.

How about AscB?
But really, if you're going to be converting bytes to and from strings, you should be using a format like Base64[^] instead.

AscB no good either. Thanks.

The issue of presenting characters in the correct format depends on how they are encoded and what font you use. The first thing you need to identify is exactly what, and what form, is the data that is being read from the chip.

Thanks for your reply. The code reads data (not text) from eeprom in the instrument. The FTDI driver (which I have no control over) returns each byte read from the USB bus as a string character.
That is why I use Asc(string) to get me the byte value that I need.
The problem, for example:
instead of reading 0 22 129 0 22
in the chinese PC I get 63 63 63 0 0
Thanks again

That makes no sense, you cannot read 0 as 63 without some fairly bad code. You need to capture each character as it arrives and display it as a numeric value.
