Ex : in your MyForm application, you have a resources file which has values :
+ A string : MyID = "......."
+ An image : MyImage = "......."

you can try this :

'Declare an instance of resources
Dim MyResource As System.ComponentModel.ComponentResourceManager = New System.ComponentModel.ComponentResourceManager(GetType(MyForm))

'Get string's value
Dim StrMyID as string = MyResource.GetString("MyID")

'Get image
Dim ImgMyImage as System.Drawing.Image = CType(MyResource.GetObject("MyImage"), System.Drawing.Image)

hi
thakns a lot for you . i have overcome my problem using your example but wat actually i tried was i added a resx file and tried to acces the resource from that file but failure only. while using form1.resx file i am able to do that.

normally if we add a item like 'form', 'class' etc we can acces like form1.show ,dim a as new class1 but resource1 (my resx file name) is not available in the list why?. do you have any idea .

Hi ,

Im trying to transform an xml document with a style sheet that includes a vbscript file with vb script functions, using .net 1.1 and vb.net i get the following error when the code block attempts to transform the xml file.

The scripting language 'vbscript' is not supported. Cry | :((

Ive googled with very little help can someone please offer me a solution or advice !!

From my understanding this is .net security kicking in by not allowing server side scripts being included which may contain bad code nice but in this case its not helping me, in this case my intentions are good so i need this script to be trusted

Thank you in advance. Smile | :)

powerpoint automation via Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint in vb.net

Hi!

I am doing a powerpoint automation via vb.net

A list of records in a grid (from sql server) is rendered into a 2 slided ppt template. each row represents 2 standard slides. The automation is quite slow if there are about 40-50rows in a grid as the final ppt will be 80-100 slides.

i automate the ppt on its minimized state. somewhere in a article i saw if i set its state to invisible it could be faster by 15% but when i set its property to invisible i get an error saying it cant be invisible. could someone give me an idea how could i get this automation more faster. currently if there are 30rows it takes about 1hr to render all those in powerpoint. I really need to speed up this process.
any help or idea on how to achieve this will be really great.

thanks in forward

You have to run the installer for .NET then run your msi. You can't integrate it unless you write your own program to run the installer, and it obviously needs to be in c++.

No No sorry boss , i did not mean that.
i was trying to get some information about the deploymnet steps in vb.net.
Ones i have created the deploymnet project for my application.
then i am getting the error that the deployment project does not contain the .net framework exe.
But i have added to it.
May be i was wrong in pursuing the right steps to create a deployment project.
Now what i wanted to ask is that is there any link that illustrates the deployment steps...... including the way how to add the .net framework exe.

You can get the names of all the installed printers from the System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters collection. Then in your printing code, you can set the PrinterName property of your PrinterSettings object to the name of the printer you want to print on. To start the printing code, all you have to do is call the Print method on your PrintDocument object.

I don't have the time to put together a sample. I've already given you all the pieces you need, plus they double as search terms for use with MSDN or Google. You have to understand how the pieces work, then how they fit together. You'll be able to build this if you put the time into it.
