Hello Mohsen,
your question is way general. as we don't know are you using web services or simple aspx mechanism. or is your application a windows app that refrences a web service.
I suggest you try the TaskVision sample from the MSDN or download it from http://www.windowsforms.com/[^].
It should give you a great insight on how to use webservices to get what you want done.
Cheers

Hi, got a problem that no search seems to help with. I have a PictureBox control (VB.NET) on a form (181*136 in size) in which I am loading selected pictures from an OpenFileDialog.
The majority of the pictures are going to be the average 3*4 aspect ratio but there are going to be some that are either longer or taller than this.
The Stretch Property is great in the fact that it sizes down the pictures to fit, but the ones that are not to the 3*4 aspect ratio are too stretched.
How can I keep the aspect ratio of a picture and at the same time get it to fit into the PictureBox control?
Many thanks for the help.

This is some code I found on the internet and it worked fine for me.
Module Main
#Region "InstallFont"
Declare Function WriteProfileString Lib "kernel32" Alias "WriteProfileStringA" _
(ByVal lpszSection As String, ByVal lpszKeyName As String, _
ByVal lpszString As String) As Integer
Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" _
(ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal wMsg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, _
ByVal lParam As Integer) As Integer
Declare Function AddFontResource Lib "gdi32" Alias "AddFontResourceA" _
(ByVal lpFileName As String) As Integer
Const WM_FONTCHANGE As Integer = &H1D
Const HWND_BROADCAST As Integer = &HFFFF
Private Function InstallFontIfNeeded() As Boolean
'
' Check for font
'
Dim bFound As Boolean
For Each ff As FontFamily In FontFamily.Families
If ff.Name = "barcoding" Then bFound = True
Next
If Not bFound Then
' If bFound Then
Dim intReturn As Integer
'
' Copy font to fonts folder
'
Dim fi As New System.IO.FileInfo(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location)
Dim strWindows As String = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("WINDIR")
Dim strPath As String = String.Format("{0}\barcoding.ttf", fi.DirectoryName)
Dim strFont As String = String.Format("{0}\Fonts\barcoding.ttf", strWindows)
System.IO.File.Copy(strPath, strFont, True)
'
'Add font
'
intReturn = AddFontResource(strFont)
Trace.WriteLine(String.Format("Add Font {0}", intReturn))
'
' Tell operating system font installed
'
SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_FONTCHANGE, 0, 0)
'
' Store the new font settings
'
intReturn = WriteProfileString("fonts", "Barcoding (TrueType)", "barcoding.ttf")
Trace.WriteLine(String.Format("Write profile {0}", intReturn))
End If
Return bFound
End Function
#End Region
Public Sub main()
If InstallFontIfNeeded() Then
Application.Run(New Form1)
Else
Process.Start("barcode.exe")
End If
End Sub
End Module
Let me know if it works for you or not.

Moving the motor is a very hardware specific issue, with little to do with VB. You'll have much better luck if you search Yahoo or Google for specific projects. Try searching for "VB6 stepper motor parallel".

That's because I DIDN'T ASK ONE! 
I know exactly what he's talking about. It can be done, but Code Project is not the proper forum for such a project. There are pitfalls that must be considered outside the real of programming, such as current draw that could exceed the limits of the port supplying the power...
Next time, check the message that your replying to. This is the second time you've posted an answer to the wrong person. Now, because you replied to my post, the person that is actually looking for an answer will NOT get an email stating that you replied to HIS POST.

Youe question really belongs in the Embedded/Mobile Forum[^]. The .NET Compact Framework doesn't have the full support of the full framework and those issues are better handled in the other forum.

I would like to develop a a full screen application in Pocket PC. The meaning of "full screen" is the app. will cover the whole physical screen including "Start" button of Windows in PPC.
Sorry, i 'm new to PPC programming. I saw a PPC application in market. Once the PPC is switch on, it will open the app. directly with full screen. Then the user are not able go to windows but only the program itself. The 4 shortcut button is dedicated for the functions of the application.
Thus, the users are no chance to access windows setting, other programs and so on.
they called it as KIOSK mode...is there any sample code inteads of buying "Spb Kiosk Engine".
I tried to search in google but most of the website introduce "Spb Kiosk Engine".
Any API or Library for VB.net for KIOSK?
Thanks for help.

Your question really has nothing to do with VB.NET, or any other language for that matter. What your asking is specific to the Pocket PC platform, and therefore really belongs in the Embedded/Mobile Forum[^].

I was told that VB.Net has the capability of displaying a Balloon Tooltip but no one seemed to know how to do it.
There are lots of projects on The Code Projects that use C# to create balloon tooltips but nothing in VB.Net
Does anyone know how to implement Balloon Tooltips in VB.Net or have a project that shows how to create that type of tooltip.
Thanks

No I dont have any examples. But why dont you just use an assembly generated with C# in your VB.Net app?
|
|
|
|
|
I tried to do that with 2 c# projects but I couldn't find enough info on how to use it after I added it to my references.

I downloaded that before going to this message board and I couldn't get it to work. However, that has been about a week ago and I've forgotten what problem I ran into.
I'll look into it again. But if you had to do something to make it work I would appreciate finding out what you did.
