Switch/Cases accept only primitive data types, such as byte, short, char, int.
If you are checking for a string, a case becomes much more complicated to use.
It is better to use a Switch/Case when you are dealing with options, where you can associate each option with a Letter or Number.
If statements should be used when more complex comparisons are made, and can be grouped using the AND/OR keywords.

Hello Everybody,
This is my first ActiveX control. I am desinging this control in VB6.0
I design 2 ActiveX Contrls One is Vertical Toolbar & second is Horizontal Toolbar.
I desing both of them. requirement of project is whenever user click on button of Vertical toolbar, Horizontal Toolbar will be created & displayed at position adjacent to clicked button.
(I think you got Problem Statement of project)
Now problem is whenever I am tying to create instance of my Horizontal Activex in Verical Activex control's Click event. Vb fired run time error on following SET statement
Public Withevents obj as HorizontalToolbar
Set obj = Controls.add("CntHori.TbrHorizontal","obj1")
Here CntHori is Lib name & TbrHorizontal is Control name.
Error name is ---> Obj not SET.
I try in this way assuming thta above code will create flyout Horizontal Toolbar on users form. Is there any different way to design flyout toolbar / control in VB.
Second Difficulty is when user move his form (during run time) how to get position of my placed Vertical Toolbar or user form's (Left,Top) so that i can move my flyout toolbar.
I think all of you get my difficulty.
If ther is any better way do this please tell me.
Your Suggetions Are most valueable for me. Deadline of project is 2 day only
Please Help Me.

You'll be muich better served by a virus scanner than wasting time writing this yourself. Chances are you won't find the virus being launched from the most obvious place in the registry to do so.

The most importance thing is checking the name of the virus. My computer at workplace are affect with the virus. I try to load anti-virus to scan it but an anti-virus is stop functionning. Everytime that I used to clean the virus is checking for the virus name and find the specific method to clean it (i read symantec documentation). I cannot use FixTool to clean it because fixtool is clean for one type of virus, so I need to check the name in the registry (i forgot to tell you, when i open registry editor it is close again). So that is why i need to check the content of the registry from the specific location (especially: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run) and find the name of the key parameter that virus drop, then I will know the name of the virus and the specific FixTool and method to clean it.

Like I said, you finding the virus running from this key is very rare. Don't expect to find the name just sitting in the open like you expect. Anyway, here's the example of what you're looking for. This assumes there is a Button on your form and a ListView setup for Detail mode....Good Luck!
Imports Microsoft.Win32
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Private Sub btnReadRunKey_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnReadRunKey.Click
Dim regKey As RegistryKey
Dim keyValue As String = "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run"
regKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(keyValue, False)
Dim regNames As String() = regKey.GetValueNames()
For Index As Integer = 0 To regNames.GetUpperBound(0)
Dim newItem As ListViewItem
newItem = ListView1.Items.Add(regNames(Index))
newItem.SubItems.Add(regKey.GetValue(regNames(Index), "*** NO VALUE ***"))
Next
regKey.Close()
End Sub
End Class

Hi,
I'm writing a Messaging app to be a GUI Net Send (like some of the articles), but want to have a history of messages received. I want to be able to catch a Message Window (from Net Send) if it appears, get the text from it, and then close it.
I've been told I need to use the windows APIs, like FindWindow, but I have no idea how to use them in .NET. That and I have no idea how to work out what the class name of the message window is.
Can anyone help?

Hi,
i am working on a project which involves writing from a windows form and webform in .NET to the system registry. Could anyone provide me information or sample code on how do i do that.
for example if i want to write something to the registry when i install a software on a system for the first time or every time the form loads, etc...
Could someone also provide me information on where do i find information abt system registry data and how to edit it or modify it.
Any sample code would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

When you load the form:
Use savesetting() to save the setting to the registry while you load the form.
Use getsetting() to get setting from the registry.
When installing the application:
If you are doing the setup project, there will be a choice whether the application need to write to registry or not.
Try to search for it in the .Net Documentation or search in the Object Browser.

Create a setup project and use Registry Editor to create registry entries on the target machine during the installation.

Just completed a conversion of an asp site to asp.net. I have an issue though, right now, we have alot of email etc with old links that link back to the asp files. I need a way to automatically redirect any .asp request to redirect to it's corresponding .aspx file. (page.asp to redirect automatically to page.aspx). I also need to include the params (if they exist) in the requesting query string. I've searched around and I've already changed to my appMappings in IIS to point to the ISAPI dll for .net (for .asp file extensions). By just doing that, the .asp request still goes down on a 404.
I've also tried to implement a 404.asp to auto redirect and that works fine except that it loses the query string parmameters after redirecting to the 404.asp.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Ok, I thought databinding in .NET would be oh so simple, turns out, I'm finding that I am writing the same code whether I Bind or Not! All of these stupid little examples on MessageBoards and MSDN suck! They never cover the REAL topic! How the heck do you save data to the DataView you've bound to, and then, once you re-populate your Data from the Database, how do you rebind your Controls? Or do you even need to!??
Well, here's what I am running into. First off, DataBinding works great! I can Bind and Navigate Records with ease. However, when I go to save, I run into problems since I am using DataRelations. I cannot use the BindingManagerBase of the Form to call "Me.BindingContext(Data).EndCurrentEdit" because then all my changes in Child Tables are GONE! Gone I tell you!!!
So, I am forced to use DataRowView variables when attempting to Save, which I connect to Me.BindingContext(Data).Current and Me.BindingContext(Data, DataMember).Current respectively and then call the "EndEdit" Method of those Rows. However, this causes an additional problem. Now, I have to write code which forces the values of my Controls into the Values of the DataRowView Variables (ex. dRow("Column") = TextBox1.Text)! So in other words...I just lost my DataBindings!???
What the @##$% is going on here!?  Has anybody in the world actually got DataBinding to work with a DataSet that has multiple Child Relations?

my problem: I don't know how in VB6:
1) override DllRegisterServer in "ActiveX dll" project
2) explicitly assign GUIDs or registration script
In fact, the question is: are there in VB6 some patterns
or best practices to implement Plug-in's? (e.g. plug-in
category in Registry and interface to implement)?.. If
the common practice is the same, how to implement it by
means of VB?
Thanks,
 )

You can't do either of these things in VB6. You can if you write your ActiveX .DLL in C++.

I Know  ( I have 4 years experience programming ATL
and VC++. But the situation is following: I need to reengineer some set of components, implemented
in VB6, that I see to be easy implemented via one major
component and a set of plug-ins. I see that, but I cannot do that! I can rewrite the code in VC++, but it will take time and is not a fair solution. Also, I won't do that alone: I have only VB and Delphi developers.
I thought in VB might be some patterns to do that, avoiding
change of programming language and environment!
In fact, I am interresting in some way to do that, not
exactly by means of methods mentioned above. If I cannot
explicitly assign GUID, I could set "compatibilty" with
previous versions of my component etc, e.g. inherited
from MSIDL-compiled TLB.
Thanks for your answer,
