if i use this :-
rs.Open "select PDATE,plan,NAME,PQNTY from purch where pdate>=" & DTPicker1.Value & " and pdate<=" & DTPicker2.Value & " order by name,pdate", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
no any record found and rs = 0 but if i use this
rs.Open "select PDATE,plan,NAME,PQNTY from purch order by name,pdate ", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
rs.Filter = "pdate>=" & DTPicker1.Value & " and pdate<=" & DTPicker2.Value
then get records in rs, Why above side command not run.

Drop the string concatenation garbage for building this SQL statement and use parameterized queries instead. They will escape and translate your DateTime values properly. You don't mention what database you're using but what you've written really doesn't work for any database I know of.
And this looks like VB6 code. Why on earth anyone doing is still doing new VB6 developement in this day is beyond me. VB6 is long since dead.

Hi guys,
I've read articles about; "Sending and receiving data from RS232 or USB ports" or, "Using vb.net to switch on/off electrical devices", but conversely in my case I want to just using a simple electrical switch to do something in my vb.net application (via RS232 or USB port). For example; if user pushed an electrical switch button which is connected to the RS232 or USB port, then simply a text same as "Pushed" appear in my application's text box.
Briefly, could we connect an electrical switch without any circuit or board to USB port to do something simple in our application?
Any suggestion or experience?
Thanks.

Short answer: No.
Longer answer: you would need some interface between the switch and the computer's port that converted the elctrical current into the correct signals for the computer. Try searching Google for computer switches to see the sort of devices that are asvailable.

No, as a USB port doesn't know how to interpret a "row" of switches. There's various projects, with prebuild general-purpose controllers and open source to control the hardware, like this one[^]. Alternatively, find a cheap USB-joystick and a large hammer

Connect a switch to a USB "port", hit the switch just once and you'll short the USB out and possibly kill the USB controller on your motherboard.
USB ports are not "ports". USB is a BUS, not unlike the expansion slots (bus) inside your PC. Without an interface chip on the switch to tell USB that a device is there, you cannot listen for the changes in the switch.

As other have already pointed out. Direct connection to USB is hazardous to the health of the USB ports.
However, perhaps if you got hold of a USB-Serial adapter it should be possible to use it on the Carrier Detect/CTS/RTS/DTR/DTS. whichever is available at the serial port.
an additional smoothing capacitor & resistor above 1K-ohms in series should help filter out the switching noise/limit current demand.

Thank you dusty_dex, that's what I was searching for.

Hi again.
I am a little confused about setting up delegates. I believe this is correct:
If I have a number of individual statements such as:
MyLocalTreeView.TreeView1.SelectedNode.Parent.FullPath
MyLocalTreeView.TreeView1.SelectedNode.FullPath
MyLocalTreeView.TreeView1.SelectedNode.Expand()
Me.MyLocalTreeView.TreeView1.Focus()
am I correct in assuming that separate delegates for each must be built, if they do not all happen together in some recurring usage where they would all be lumped together in one sub?
Thanks for your help!

Are you using the term "delegate" correctly? Delegates are basically function pointers that can be passed around like variables. In VB.NET delegates are created using the AddressOf operator. See this: Delegates in VB.NET[^]
Maybe I'm not getting what you are trying to do? Are you talking about a subroutine to do all the above operations in one call?

Hi, Ron. Thanks for your response.
I am referring to the fact that a form's controls cannot be directly accessed via a thread other than the main thread that runs the form itself. Delegates are required. That being the case, if I have a TreeView that must be updated from a second thread, do I need to create separate delegates for each and every method I will use for the TreeView? It seems that unless I always use multiple TreeView methods in a set order, and put all of that into a sub that will have a delegate assigned to it, then I will need to do them all separately.
Hm...just thought of this...Unless it is possible to create a delegate for the entire TreeView class.

Yeah, "delegate" is not the right term.
Operations on UI items can only be performed on the thread that created them, typically (almost always) the UI thread. When you want to do something, you have to Invoke on the UI thread. Don't confuse the word invoke with delegates, a delegate can be invoked, but its really not the same concept. You can create a delegate to invoke on the UI, but there are other options.
The Control.Invoke method invokes on the UI thread, you don't have to use the TreeView.Invoke for just treeview items, you can update any UI item in that invoke call since its running in the UI thread. You can even run complicated sets of code in there if you want that have nothing to do with the UI.

Ah, cool. Thanks for the clarification. I think you just made my day in getting my mind around delegates and Invoke, and how they relate.

This may be of help for referencing items on a separate thread:
Create an extension method to invoke items:
Module Extensions
<Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension()> _
Sub SynchronisedInvoke(synchMe As ISynchronizeInvoke, action As Action)
If Not synchMe.InvokeRequired Then
action()
Else
synchMe.Invoke(action, New Object() {})
End If
End Sub
End Module
Then you can reference the item on the other thread with the use of a lambda:
lblMessage.SynchronisedInvoke(Sub() lblMessage.Text = "Hello World")

Sorry for responding late. My A/C went out last night, and I need to get a window unit in for temporary use. In the meantime, it is 91degF inside my home and I can only use my laptop for brief stints, that with a cooler pad underneath. My desktop computer needs to stay shut down.

Hi
Can some one help. I'm trying to run the following script but nothing happens
Option Explicit
Public objShell
dim in = "C:\test3.pdf"
dim out = "C:\test4.ps"
set input = in
set output = out
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.shell")
objShell.run "c:\pdftops.exe -nocrop -noshrink -level3 %input% %output% "
|
|
|
|
|
First, I assume you have run the pdftops.exe file with the defined inputs from a command prompt and it worked correctly.
Having said that, are you sure the input and output parameters are even being passed to the command line?
My suggestion, build the command line and replace the input/output parameters with the actual equivalents.
sCommand = "c:\pdftops.exe -nocrop -noshrink -level3 " & in & " " & out
objShell.run sCommand
|
|
|
|
|
Of course it doesn't work. The command line you ran was exactly:
c:\pdftops.exe -nocrap -noshrink -leve3 %input% %output%
VBScript does NOT do "automatic" variable replacement in strings. A string it treated as literal. The contents are not modified by what is in the string.

|
|
|

Further to the other comments, SET in vbscript doesn't set an environment variable; it assigns the reference-type value on the right-hand side to the variable on the left-hand side. Since you've specified Option Explicit and you haven't declared the input or output variables, this should fail.

1. in is a keyword. Do not use it.
2. Write the strings something like this...
objShell.run "c:\pdftops.exe -nocrop -noshrink -level3" & input & " " & output

Hi, all.
Once again, vb.Net shows how convoluted it can be. Or I'm just stupid.
Assume I have a background thread running. Then, if in the Immediate window, I type in
?m_Thread.ThreadState.ToString
I get back, "Background".
But if I first assign ThreadState to a string variable:
Dim ThreadState_str As String
ThreadState_str = m_Thread.ThreadState.ToString
and type in
?ThreadState_str
I get back:
"Background, WaitSleepJoin"
What is going on here?!
