Place pictures in listview items (bigger than LargeIcons) evermood8-Dec-04 6:50 evermood 8-Dec-04 6:50  Imagine a listview with only one column. I would like to place an existing *.jpg or *.bmp at the place of an item and in the item below text associating the picture. The LargeIcon View with ImageList is nearly perfect, but the icons are too small for my pictures. I have the idea to place picturboxes at the place of the items, but how. It must be at runtime. I could also make a datagrid if this works easier. Please give me some code example. Thanks I am in Very bad position please Help (Runtime Error 430) sathiyaram8-Dec-04 6:43 sathiyaram 8-Dec-04 6:43  Hi, I have developed one application using Vb6.0. The application will use my custom dlls. I made installation package using Microsoft Package and deployment wizard, it was running perfectly. If the client wants some changes then i will do modifications on the custom dlls and compile the dlls. one moretime i will make the installation package with the revised dlls. Like this i made lot of versions on my application. Now i installed .net, i made slight modifications just commented a message box on the dll code and compiled. I verified with the application without making package, it run perfectly. I made package, and run on the same machine, Now i am getting the Runtime error 430, whenever my application is try to run functions on the dll. I refered the MSDN, they given the solution to unregister the dll and register manually. I did but then also i am getting the same error. Then I upgraded by latest MDAC_TYP.EXE, then also i am getting the same error. Please help me to comeout of this problem past 10 days i was not able to do anything.

Project compatibility is the default, which will cause new GUIDs to be created each time you compile the DLL. Existing COM clients will break, unless you either repoint their references to the new version of the DLL or compile them together (in a project group). Also, look up Binary compatibility in VB6, GUIDs, class IDs, interfaces IDs, etc. to learn more about this process. I hope this helps you and/or points you in the right direction. Pete Re: I am in Very bad position please Help (Runtime Error 430) sathiyaram8-Dec-04 20:36 sathiyaram 8-Dec-04 20:36  Hi Pete, Thanks for your suggestion. Initially my VB6 DLL Project was with Project Compatibility. After getting this error , i referred the MSDN and changed VB6 DLL Project to Binary Compatibility, then also I am getting the same error. The setup.exe was created using microsoft Package & Deployment wizard for my application. Before installing the setup.exe, in development version the application is running without any problem at all with the modified DLL. The error is particularly arising, after installing the application using setup.exe. I tried with various combination of including MDAC_typ.exe different version. Then also no improvement. I found one thing that after installing my Application,if i unregister the dll in system dir and register again the dll manually using regsvr32, it is working fine. If i uninstall my application and again i reinstall the same story is repeating. I have to provide the application to my client. Please suggest me how to verify compatibility on GUIDs,Class IDs, etc., because i haven't worked on system level. With Regards Sathiyanarayanan Re: I am in Very bad position please Help (Runtime Error 430) Peter939-Dec-04 6:36 Peter93 9-Dec-04 6:36  Hi Sathiyanarayanan, Unregister all previous versions of your DLL on your development box. Turn binary compatibility off for now. Put your VB6 app and DLL in a project group. Compile that (do a full build). Copy the DLL created to a sub-directory of your project directory, called "Reference" Set binary compatibility on your project, pointing to the DLL in the "Reference" directory. This is your reference. Do NOT do subsequent compiles to this directory. Whenever you release a new version of this DLL, place it into the "Reference" folder. This now becomes your new reference. This ensures you don't lose compatibility from version to version of your DLL. Basically, this DLL in the "Reference" folder is only there to maintain the specific interface, class and programmatic IDs for the DLL, so they don't change from build to build and version to version (for existing interfaces). Then, build the setup package and try installing on a clean machine without any previous instances of your DLL. The topic of GUIDs, Class IDs, Interface IDs, etc., is very large. You could look at the VB6 project file to see what the GUID is for the DLLs you are referencing. You can view the COM interface(s) a DLL exports with a tool called "Depends.exe", installed with the rest of the Visual Studio tools. I can only give you general pointers in this area, as you will have to do a lot of research on your own to learn about this. Any book or website covering COM will be able to explain these topics in detail. Good luck.

I need to produce a report on those using more than 500Mb Thanks. Re: Mailbox size Dave Kreskowiak8-Dec-04 7:07 Dave Kreskowiak 8-Dec-04 7:07  I think you have two problems. The first is CDO won't do this. The second is weather you can do it at all depends on where the mailboxes are stored. Is this an Exchange Server?

Re: Mailbox size Dave Kreskowiak9-Dec-04 0:52 Dave Kreskowiak 9-Dec-04 0:52  I don't know how to do it exactly. Check into the Exchange SDK on MSDN. You could probably enumerate the user stores URL's, convert the URL (in file:// form) to a path and get the size of the folder from that. Just an idea...

THANKS Re: Xml help please Dave Kreskowiak8-Dec-04 3:43 Dave Kreskowiak 8-Dec-04 3:43  If your using a DataGrid, your grid should be sourced (DataSource property) to a DataSet object that contains the actual data your changing. When the changes are complete, you can have the DataSet object write the data out to an XML file. Checkout the docs on the DataSet class here[^] on MSDN.

For instance ask for user credentials before resuming print job. Thanks Brandon http://print-track.sourceforge.net Re: Monitoring Print Jobs Dave Kreskowiak8-Dec-04 3:37 Dave Kreskowiak 8-Dec-04 3:37  You can EASILY get around such security by just printing directly to the printer using IP Print. No print queues involved... In any case, the better way to do that is to rely on the security features of the O/S. BTW: A small job can still get printed before you have the opportunity to pause it.
