Conversion from C# to VB.Net - Visual Basic Discussion Boards

One possibility is that you create a LINQ query that queries the source datatable and fetches the columns that match in the target datatable. When looping through the results, add a new row as an object array into the target table or create a new table and use that.

Have a look at Creating a DataTable From a Query (LINQ to DataSet)[^]

whats the code for command buttom to call the report with crystal report there are have 2 details in 1 report with database acces in vb6..pls help thks

Please read http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/1278601/How-to-get-an-answer-to-your-question.aspx[^].

It requires a lot of code and no one can or will just write it for you. Do you have a more specific question?

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I'm using the example provided earlier in a previous post of mine.
I want to convert this sql linq statement into a queryable, so I can adjust the take and skip,
But I can't figure out how to Join and do Multiple contains using IQueryable.

So I wrote this which works, but now I only want to take the data I need, and not the whole table that matches. I thought I needed to go IQueryable for the Take and Skip, not being to add that to the code below. If I'm wrong, please let me know.

Dim p_pageIndex as integer = 1
Dim p_pageOffset as integer = 10
Dim p_SearchQuery as String = "Kneepads"
Using context As New DBContext()

Dim pResults = _
(
    From pi In context.ProductInfo
    Join pik In context.ProductInfo_Keywords On pik.ProductID Equals pi.ProductID
    Where pik.Keywords.Contains(p_SearchQuery.Trim) _
    Or pik.Stream.Contains(p_SearchQuery.Trim) _
    Or pi.PartNumber.Contains(p_SearchQuery.Trim)
    Order By pi.PartNumber, pi.SDescription, pi.Description Descending
    Select
        pi.ProductID,
        pi.CategoryID,
        pi.SubCategoryID,
        pi.SDescription,
        pi.Description,
        pi.Thumbnail,
        pi.PartNumber,
        pi.Price    
)

In the example above, I have multiple contains from 2 tables that are Joined, I can't figure out the wording for the Join or multiple contains. the multiple OrderBy's was from a previous version in TSQL where I used ORDER By RANK

Dim context As New DBContext()
Dim items As IQueryable(Of PRODUCTINFO) = context.ProductInfo

'Sort
items = items.OrderByDescending(Function(m) m.PartNumber).OrderByDescending(Function(m) m.SDescription).OrderByDescending(Function(m) m.Description)

'Filter by Rank
items = items.Where(Function(m) m.PartNumber.Contains(p_SearchQuery))

'Get a Single Page of Data
If (p_pageIndex = 1) Then
   items = items.Take(p_pageOffset)
Else
   items = items.Skip((p_pageIndex - 1) * p_pageOffset).Take(p_pageOffset)
End If

pResults = _
   items.AsEnumerable().Select(Function(pi) New searchIndex With
   {
       pi.ProductID,
       pi.CategoryID,
       pi.SubCategoryID,
       pi.SDescription,
       pi.Description,
       pi.Thumbnail,
       pi.PartNumber,
       pi.Price
   }
)

How to Use Tessnet2 Library[^]

The above code is easy to use... and works well.
Add the tessnet2.dll to the references, add the "tessdata" folder to your project, insert the VB code in a Sub... done.

BUT TESSNET2 IS DEPRECATED.

Someone knows where to find as easy to use VB.net code and a tessnet302.dll working with Tesseract 3.02??

Where does it state that? If it is deprecated, then there will also be a recommended alternative.

Looks more like there's a new version of Tesseract, and not of the Tessnet library.

Google never heard of the file. Are you sure there is a new library for the new version of the product?

Please I'm using vb.net 2013 and Microsoft office 2013. The below code is able to display the datagridview

into excel 2007. But the code does not display onto excel 2013 and no error gets reported. I suspect the

excel 2013 format could be the cause but i do not know how to go about it.

<pre lang="vb"

Dim ExcelSheet As Object
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer

'create object of excel
ExcelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
ExcelBook = ExcelApp.WorkBooks.Add
ExcelSheet = ExcelBook.WorkSheets(1)

With ExcelSheet
For i = 1 To Me.DataGridViewGCL.RowCount
.cells(i, 1) = Me.DataGridViewGCL.Rows(i - 1).Cells("GclNo").Value
For j = 1 To DataGridViewGCL.Columns.Count - 1
.cells(i, j + 1) = DataGridViewGCL.Rows(i - 1).Cells(j).Value
Next
Next
End With

ExcelApp.Visible = True
'
ExcelSheet = Nothing
ExcelBook = Nothing
ExcelApp = Nothing

></pre>

Which version of Office do your interop-dll's target? If you are using the files from Office 2007, then it probably will not be able to read a 2013 file, since Excel 2013 did not exist at that time.

Thanks for the response. I have excel 2013 and the code executes well in vb 2008 and excel 2007. From the references tab, Microsoft Excel Object Library 15.0 exists. Is there anything I have to do again, please? If you could link me to any code concerning that, i will be glad. Thanks

Should be the correct version. In your loop, add the statement below;

VB

System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ExcelSheet.cells(i, 1).Value)

After that, run the code again and see if any values are printed to the output-screen. If there's no data, then you either have no data at that point, data might get converted from the wrong type, or you might be looking at another file than you think you are.

VB

ExcelSheet = Nothing
ExcelBook = Nothing
ExcelApp = Nothing

I could be wrong, but I suspect when you set all those objects to Nothing, the Excel app is removed from memory and hence is unable to display your worksheet.

Perhaps you can comment those lines out and try?

Many thanks. I commented out those lines, but nothing displays. I dont know what to do now

Does an Excel window open? Do you mean the worksheet has no data in it?

Thanks for the message, big bro. Yes, an excel window opens and the worksheet has no data in it.

Well, I guess then you have to run it through the debugger and make sure your DataGridView actually has data in it.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a good library that is able to read/detect barcodes inside a pdf file.

Until now I only found paying ones who are quite expensive and the customer where I work for is a small company that starts with digital archiving but where we need to be able to detect barcodes in tiff and pdf files.

Can anybody advise me a component for this that is not paying ?

Kind regards,
Vincent

VB6 is deprecated; it is no longer actively supported.

If memory serves correctly, you'd have to position the control by hand to have it on the location in the grid where you want it.
