The problem has nothing to do with either. If you want to successfully write code, no matter the language or technology, the single most important skill you must have nothing to do with programming. It's the ability to do research. How to find information using, and refining the correct search terms, how to hypothesize, and how to test those hypothesis. If you don't know this skill - learn it. It's far more useful than knowing how to write code.

All you need is font, and calculate check digit when forming the bar code (ie Code+CheckDigit).
And I _assume_ that, as you might be printing bar code labels to be pasted on products, and the labels might not be large enough to be scanned, if you use a normal printer, you should get a bar code printer instead. The ways of configuring the bar code printer should come with the bar code printer.
To use the barcode reader, you don't usually need to do much else, as the reader acts as a keyboard. Just make the cursor is on the capturing control (textbox) and the barcode is of correct code.

Thank you very much, I got the concept. Now, I'm getting barcode fonts and paper about how to generate checking digit (I got it from one article about barcode in this website and he posted the URL to find out how to generate barcode checking digit) and I will implement it.
Thank you.

CodeProject holds over 30 articles on barcodes, some use special fonts, some draw
the lines themselves.
in 6 hours you could have read all of them.

I have a dll file can be linked with VB 6.0. In VB 2005, I tried to use "Add Reference" to link the dll, but I got an error for checking if the file is assembly or COM components. Can I do "Declare" like VB 6.0 to call functions in dll?
VB 6.0->
Public Declare Function Cmod2WireWriteBlock _
Lib "cmodcomm.dll" _
(ByVal DeviceAddr8 As Integer, _
ByRef InBuffer() As Char, _
ByVal BUFSIZEcount As Integer) _
As Boolean

Add reference is only good for COM or .NET dlls. p/invoke may work.

Heya,
Just a quick question. I am writing a stack application in which there is one requirement that data structure must make use of a block of memory allocated when the stack is constructed. Now which data stucture is most appropriate for this. Is it sensible to use linked list or not.

A Linked list, by its very nature, is dynamic; you can't use a stack for it.
Unless I'm making a huge mistake (and I've made plenty in the past  ), you are going to be stuck with arrays*.
* You _could_ also use fixed-size stacks and queues and dequeues, but they're just sexed up arrays. 
Cheers,
Vikram.

A linked list by it's very nature is in fact a stack without push and pop functions.

Your best bet would be to ask this over at the Mathematics and Algorithms[^] forum.
(if it were me, I'd just allocate an array and keep an index to the top of the stack. since you're dealing with a fixed size predetermined from the start, that's how I'd do it.)

Hello, I am using VB.Net for a database application. From VB.net form I call second application (VB or VB.net based) and as soon as second application finish process I have to refresh my current form with some updated data. Can anyone please help me how to do it.

Just grab the return value of Process.Start, then wait for that process to end.

Many thanks for your reply. Let me be more specific to my problem.
- I am calling an 'Outlook 2000 New Message window' from VB.Net from.
- On Email ItemSend event I am updating the database by using a VBA macro
and closing Message window.
- When I get focus back to my VB.Net application, I want to refresh my current form with recently updated data.
I am using the following code to create a new mail.
Public Sub NewEmail(ByVal txtEmail As String, ByVal intContId As Long)
Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim objNamespace As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim objMAPIFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim objItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim objProp As Outlook.UserProperty
objOutlook = New Outlook.Application()
objNamespace = objOutlook.GetNamespace(Type:="MAPI")
Try
'creating a process but it's not working
Dim Proc As New Process
Dim ProcInfo As New ProcessStartInfo
ProcInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
ProcInfo.FileName = ""
ProcInfo.UseShellExecute = False
Proc.StartInfo = ProcInfo
Proc.EnableRaisingEvents = True
AddHandler Proc.Exited, AddressOf ProcessExited
Proc.Start()
objMAPIFolder = objNamespace.GetDefaultFolder & _
(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox)
objItem = objOutlook.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)
objItem.To = txtEmail
objProp = objItem.UserProperties.Add("ContactId", & _
Outlook.OlUserPropertyType.olNumber, False, False)
objProp.Value = intContId
objItem.Display()
objOutlook = Nothing
objNamespace = Nothing
objMAPIFolder = Nothing
objItem = Nothing
objProp = Nothing
Catch ex As Exception
msgbox err.message
End Try
End Sub
I would appreciate if you kindly guide me how to include a process object in this function. If you think there is a better way to solve this problem, kindly let me know.
Thanks again

Does any one know what is the fastest method of fetching data from database servers?
DataAdapter.Fill()?
DataTable.Load()?
DataReader?
|
|
|
|

DataReader is the quickest, but it has limited use. It gives you a read-only, forward-only cursor on the recordset that is returned.
DataAdapter (and DataTable) is the most flexible of the built-in controls, but is also slower. It gives you a completely navigable and editable copy of the recordset returned from the database.

The problem I am having is I need to enter values in a text box on a form
and transfer them to an Excel sheet. I need to be able to input up to 25
"scores" For example I submit 77 then click submit it runs the following code
For i = 1 To 25
'count = count + 1
'score = txtscore.Text
'Sheet5.Cells(i, "a").Value = score
'Next i
The problem is it enters score for all values A1:A25 I need the score to be entered in A1 then input another number into txtscore which is my text box. Then after I click the submit button I need that value to be placed in A2 and so on and so forth. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I don't know VBA, but

it seems clear to me that when i is 1, it will go into A1, when it's 2, it will go in to A2, etc.

Thanks. It does go into A2 and so. However, I need the value in the text box to go into A1. Then I need the value/variable cleared then once another value is entered in the text box I want that value in A2 then cleared then A3 etc.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'txtscore.Text = ""
For i = 1 To 25
' hours = Cells(i, "b").Value
' rate = Cells(i, "c").Value
count = count + 1
score = txtscore.Text
Sheet5.Cells(i, "a").Value = score
txtcount = Sheet5.Range("B2")
txtmean = Sheet5.Range("B3")
txtstand = Sheet5.Range("B4")
Next i
End Sub

You're not going to use any kind of For/Next loop at all in this. You simply keep track of the row you're in in a simple integer variable. Every time you click Submit, or whatever you're calling your button, you put the textbox values in the cells, then increment the variable to point it at the next row. Check the variable to see if it's gone too far and adjust as you see fit. Then, you do nothing... The whole process starts over again on the next button click.

I have a question:
How can I create a search textbox that would find a certain person in my phonebook. I have created an acces database with a table phonebook. I imported it into my project and then created a form on which I dragged this textboxes which are connected to different fields ( firstname, lastname, adress, number, etc. ) via lets say phonebookBindingSource. I am describing this so in case you write a code, you could write it specificaly for my case. Any comments are very welcome othervwise it's like useless
help tutorials which are made for those who already know all that not for those who want to learn. Anyway I have tried quite a lot including building queries in access and then using that in VB and it doesn't work.
I should write the lastname in a textbox and then clik search button. So I suppose I shuld writte in a Button1_Click Subroutine what?...
But the primary key is on ID not on Lastname or name. There can be different persons with the same lastname so with each click it goes to the next and when at the end of table the procedure should go round again. The easiest way and comments pretty please.
