Can anybody make a program in VB.NET (not in C#) to retrieve device information and detect when a device gets connected to a PC.I have already tried my hands in it but not get any related atricles on DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE or GUID cass.Can it be done through System.InterOpServices.DLLImportAttribute?Mention the classes and properties of that classes.

Please Send me the solution ASAP

Re: displaying checked itmes

7-Nov-06 5:00

I might be wrong but I think that the only way to do this is by writing a driver. Devices being connected/disconnected cause an interrupt at KERNEL level, and those addresses are out of bounds in user mode.

Do it with array of check boxes and run over it. if Chk(i).checked=true then msgbox (chk(i).text)

Printing problems in VB

MyFathersSon5-Nov-06 5:58

Hi all,
I'm trying to print out text and graphics on the same page using VB's Printer.Print

For i = 0 To List2.ListCount - 1 Step 1
Printer.Print List2.List(i)
Next i

If Clipboard.GetFormat(vbCFBitmap) Then
Printer.PaintPicture Clipboard.GetData(), 0, 0
Printer.EndDoc
End If

The graphics gets printed out, but the text from the list box doesn't. Any ideas on how I can resolve this? Thanks

Looks like the graphic might be overlaying the print buffer.
I would try the simplest approach first, and put an EndDoc after the listbox loop and see if that will flush the buffer without advancing the page.
Failing that, you might have to set the text and graphics onto a Form or Picture box first, and then call PrintForm.

Thanks for your suggestion. I placed a Printing.EndDoc statement as follows:

For i = 0 To List2.ListCount - 1 Step 1
Printer.Print List2.List(i)
Next i
Printer.EndDoc ' added

and this printed both text and graphic, but on separate pages. I'm not sure how to carry out your second suggestion.

That's what I was afraid of...
Been a long time since I messed with that. I wish I had a good example for you, but there should be a bunch of em out there (good ol' Google).

Boy, you're being a P.I.A. today.

You're gonna owe me a cut of that app. Laugh | :laugh:

Ah hell now i came to another bottleneck... um (feels very stupid) how can i use this to display the actual total size of a drive because so far i can get it to say 16Bytes when it should be saying 250GB (well in that region)

OldWarhorse5-Nov-06 7:32

Try something like this:

Dim dr As New System.IO.DriveInfo("C")
Dim sizeInBytes As Long
Dim sizeInGB As Single

sizeInBytes = dr.TotalSize
sizeInGB = sizeInBytes / 1000000000
TextBox1.Text = String.Format("Total Drive Size in Bytes:  {0}", sizeInBytes.ToString("#,###,###,###,###"))
TextBox2.Text = String.Format("Total Drive Size in GB:  {0}", sizeInGB.ToString("###,###,###,###.00"))

You can play around with the verbage, divisor value, and formatting as you prefer.
