Like Colin said, a candidate for a genetic algorithm. Can we give you the code? Hell No! This is classwork! Get together with someone from class to hash this out. We can help with questions about problems you're having with code, but in no way will anyone here write the code for you.

hello,
i am trying to write a program that hooks an existing socket(opened by another application),
reads the data that the app is sending/receiving
and sends my own data through that socket.
if you dont know an excact solution, can you please point me to a tutorial about hooking sockets?
thanks,
GX

Simple, you don't. You can't hook a socket opened by another application. Just think of the security risks and you'll understand why.
Now, you CAN intercept the network traffic the socket rides on. This would require writting something akin to a packet sniffer. If your serious about this, then I suggest you can get an idea of what this involves by picking up the book "Network Programming in .NET". Try Amazon...

then how do programs like WPE (winsock Packet Editor) and NetXRay work?
i have read a few tutorials on sniffers but that's not what i need. i need to be able to send data through that socket too.
thanks for the reply!

Those are also packet sniffers. They don't hook into an open port, but actually intercept ALL traffic going in and out of the NIC. Filters allow you to see the traffic on specific ports. This is what's probably making you think you can hook a port. If you can intercept all the traffic, you can also stop any traffic you want, alter any traffic you want, and create any traffic you want. Think of how a Firewall works.
Better yet, you a complete understanding of how this stuff works, pick up the book. Chapter 13 covers exactly what you're looking for. But I'd read the whole thing first.

Hello,
Using VB.NET, I have developed a code which runs on PPC and XP.
For the moment I have two projects, one for Windows Application and one for Smart Device Application, and when I do a modification in one project, I copy and paste the code into the other project.
My question is: Is there a means to have only one single common file holding the code and which can be "loaded" in into one of both projects?

I have a binary file (3D object file .LWO format) and I am having terrible joy getting the information out that i require.
The file consisits of several Chunks which relate to different 3D data. But for the moment I am interested in only 1 section known as the PNTS chunk. The file format viewed in a hex editor is as follows:

The data I require is the list of points in the PNTS chunk, The first 4 bytes that follow the PNTS header text are the length of the chunk (so I am lead to believe). Following that each co-ordinate is made of 12 bytes, 3 axis create a co-ordinate X,Y,Z which are 4 bytes each. In this particular 3D model i chose a real basic cube 4m each side. so there should be 8 points to build the object. 8*12 = 96 which should be the same as the length set by the 4 bytes following the PNTS header. Whichever way i try to read the file the most I am able to get is the first Y co-ordinate to the end, therefore im always missing the first X co-ord of the first point, I have tried moving my current file positions to get this value but to no avail. Instead of pasting here every way i have tried to read this file, is there anyone here who could suggest the best way in vb.net to get this information?
I need to seek the PNTS Header, get the length of the PNTS chunk using the next 4 bytes, then read in the VB SINGLE vlaues to hold each x,y,z co-ordinates. The points are stored in IEEE Floating Point 32bit Hexadecimal. I can read in the HEX no problem but again I am not qualified enough to do the mathmatical conversion required to convert to decimal.
The points should be as follows:
-2: -2 : -2
2 : -2 : -2
2 : -2 : 2
-2: -2 : 2
-2: 2 : -2
2 : 2 : -2
2 : 2 : 2
-2: 2 : 2
For some reason when i read from the start of this chunk i always get -3.5 for the first co-ord when using the binaryreader object in vb.net
I would appreciate any help or pointers anyone can give me
Thanks in advance

I would like to begin to learn how to make my own custom controls. However, I have absolutly no worthwhile knowledge on how to do this. Could someone point me to an article, explaining simply, but throughly the process of making my own controls?
Thanks -

hi
How can I work with DAO databases and recordsets in VB.NET.please send me an example code.
thank you so much

Sorry man, as far as I know, DAO is not present any more in VB.NET. If you want to work with VB.NET try to use ADO.NET. Try to check the information from here[^] about using ado.net with vb.net.

What do you mean by this question? You mean how to use the progress bar (like copy the file in windows explorer)? If so, try to check the information from here.[^]

I have an ms access db with many 'views' (queries) within the database that I want to use with ADO.NET but it seems I'm having to reinvent the wheel to use them the way i want.
Simplified example:
Lets say i have a query within Access
"Select FirstName, LastName, FirstName + ' ' + LastName as FullName FROM Customers"
Now I use that in a DataTable bound to a DataGrid -- When i enter (or edit) the FirstName and LastName and move to the next row it doesn't update the 'calculated field' FullName.
I know I can make a 'Calculated Column' and make it work but im trying not to have to write so much dang code and use what already works. Am I just missing somthing obvious? Is there a way to tell ADO that the field should calculate 'LIVE' using the sql, or do I have to insert into code every calculation done with the data as a calculated column?

That's because it's not a calculated column. It's a 3rd column, called FullName, in a table returned by the Jet Engine, which did the "calculation." In order to see the changes with the code you've written, you'll have to write the FirstName and LastName fields back to the database and then refresh the dataset, thereby returning a new FullName column.

I have written a routine to manipulate a large bitmap (actually it is a raster image of a map).
After loading the bitmap into memory I have used DrawImage() to zoom in and out and scroll the map in a picturebox.
However, the quality of the same bitmap in the picturebox is OK, but no where nere as good as the image displayed in the windows Picture and Fax viewer. Can anyone explain why? Does the windows viewer use GDI+ or perhaps DirectX. Is there a way of tweaking drawimage to get better results.
thanks in anticipation.
regards,

Please note that I am a beginner VB.net programmer. Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
I am trying to sort a datatable loaded from an SQL db table. There are 2 sort keys, both ascending, and 9 other columns. The primary key, "PurchaseOrderID", can contain nulls, although it is usually a string of format "999999_999". After loading the ds, I use the following code to try to sort the records:
Dim myDataView As DataView
myDataView = ds.Tables("tPIA").DefaultView
myDataView.Sort = ("PurchaseOrderID, TimeNeeded")
The problem is I need the rows with null values in PurchaseOrderID to all sort to the high end. I know one can write a custom comparer to modify sort order but I haven't seen the syntax of how one can use a comparer with a dataview.
Can this be done? If so, what's the syntax?
If not, do you have any other suggestions? I originally loaded the SQL table into a Collection but there didn't seem to be a sort method available there. So I loaded the Collection into an array and wrote a custom comparer, but then I couldn't seem to sort on the 2 fields, as required.
Thank you,
mif

Try this
MyDataView.Sort = "PurchaseOrderID, TimeNeeded ASC"
-or-
MyDataView.Sort = "PurchaseOrderID ASC, TimeNeeded ASC"
Use DESC for Descending
*EDIT*
I just tried it with a dataview containing null values and it sorts the null values to the top of list in my datagrid. I really don't see a problem with your code. I thought maybe the parentheses in your .sort code was the problem but it works either way.

Thank you for the help - however I am not getting the results expected. Although ASC is the deafult, I did add ASC to both sort keys:
myDataView.Sort = ("PurchaseOrderID ASC, TimeNeeded ASC")
Here is a sample of the output, where PurchaseOrderID is column(2) and TimeNeeded is column(9) on a 0 to 11 basis:

Take a look at rows 126 and 127 - although PurchaseOrderID has been {unspecified} through this point, TimeNeeded has jumped backwards from 12/31/2029 to 1/28/2005. The watch has these colums delimited by "#"s so I have reason to believe that .net is indeed seeing the fields as dates and not strings.
Can you offer any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Are you sure the data isn't being handled as a string? I made a quick table in ms access and it sorted it fine with the "TimeNeeded" column as a DATE/TIME but when i changed it to a string it basically returned results like you show. Double check the column data type:
Debug.WriteLine(MyDataSet.Tables("MyTable").Columns("TimeNeeded").DataType.ToString)
Do the same for your PurchaseOrderID column. Other than being the wrong datatype I can't understand why it doesn't work for you.
