- 4 years ago, my friends said that using XML to access information directly through the Web is much better than using program (FTP) to download files (read information) then upload files (write information).
- In my question, I did mention that XML does not access directly to MS Access database, but through an .ASP file. In that ASP file, the Request XML commands will be handled and it will connect to MS Accesss database to read/write information ... then it will Response back to the Client
I hope that I explain mt question well enough. There might be a better way to access data trhough the WEB without Download/Upload files through FTP?

Ok, now I get to see your problem. Actually you and your friend have a very wrong handle on how this should work. What you need to look into are database driven web pages. This is completely different to what you are thinking of. Todays structure is more like:
Database - SQL Server with stored procedures to service the clients - lives near/on the web server
DAL - VB project that connects yor OM to the database - lives on the web server
OM - Object model - VB project that represents your objects (tables in database or entities in the UI) - lives on the web server
Code behind - VB attached to your ASPX pages - lives on the web server.
ASPX - UI served up by the web server to the client and uses code behind to connect to the OM which uses the DAL to connect to the database to get the data
Ajax as well on the ASPX pages.
So life is a little more complex than you envisaged. There are 3 distinct languages required for this development (TSQL, VB and javascript). If you are going to pursue this you should start with database design, get your data right and the rest will be simpler (not easy but simpler).

Thanks for detail explains, I think I have to change our approaches and start the way as you suggested

Hi all, Is it at all possible to have an SQL trigger (which fires every time a row is inserted in a certain table) raise an event in a running VB application ?
Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to accelerate your car using breaks... 
Jokes apart NO. But I suppose, your application is the one which is inserting the data in the table or there is some external source of data?
If former is the case, you can better tackle the event in your application itself.

Perhaps not triggering an event per se, but Microsoft SQL Server does have the ability to work with COM objects, which you could use to signal an application.
The method I've used may be a bit Rube Goldberg-ish, but it does work for what we need.
An incredibly simple VB6 COM object was created which does nothing more than issue a TCP connection request to a computer and port specified in the lone Ping method. A multi-threaded VB.NET application was written which listens on a given port for inbound connection requests. When one is received, the connection request is dropped and a short countdown timer is started. Additional connection requests reset the countdown. When the countdown has elapsed, the pending items in the queue are processed.
We have also used SQL Server's COM object functionality to make a better email component (one that can take queries and format the results as HTML tables).

Depends on the version of SQL Server you're using. It won't be an event like you see in, say, the button class, but yes, you can get notifications. Google for "SQL Server Notification Service".

It seems that I can assign the value of a cell by dbl-clicking on the cell like this
In this event handler
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellContentClick
TextBox1.Text = dgView1.CurrentCell.Value
However the first column of data does not work the same way. If I dbl-click on it It does not fire the event but if I click on the column header the data will populate the textbox??
Is there something I am missing??

Are you certain you are clicking on the 1st column and not the header for the rowheader column.

I want to do some scientific calculations to evaluate a scientific equation.
I want to develop a component in VB.net to perform the arthematic calculations with required precission(Which is more than 30 digits after decimal point).
Can some one help me with this.

In the early '80s, a friend wrote an application on an 8 bit machine to calculate PI to the nth decimal place. Obviously, the floating point accuracy of an 8 bit machine would not suffice, so, he stored his data in character strings and manually performed the necessary calculations one column at a time. Assuming you have a formula or some other such means, use character strings and arrays.
Enjoy!

I am looking some thing like PI calculations
I tried it in the following way. Write a method for userdefined datatype and then use the operator overloading concept for operators(+,-,*,/) to perform arthmatic calculations with that new data type.
Public Function UDDouble(ByVal strDouble As String, ByVal intScale As Integer) As String
'Dim obj As String = "1.12345678903322112233"
Try
Dim strTemp As String() = New String(intScale) {}
Dim temp3 As String = ""
If strDouble.Contains(".") Then
Dim temp1 As String = strDouble.Split(".")(0)
Dim temp2 As String = strDouble.Split(".")(1)
If intScale > temp2.Length Then
For i As Integer = 0 To temp2.Length - 1
temp3 += temp2(i)
Next
For j As Integer = temp2.Length To intScale
temp3 += "0"
Next
Else
For i As Integer = 0 To intScale - 1
temp3 += temp2(i)
Next
End If
temp1 = temp1 + "." + temp3
Return temp1
Else
Return strDouble
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw New Exception(ex.Message)
End Try
End Function
Dim arr1 As Double() = {2, 2, 7}
Dim arr2 As Double() = {1, 2, 8}
Dim arr3 As Double() = {0, 0, 0}
Dim carry As Integer
Dim borrow As Integer
Dim chrOperator As Char
Dim holdDigit As Integer
Select Case chrOperator
Case "+"
For i As Integer = 2 To 0 Step -1
'for addition
holdDigit = arr1(i) + arr2(i) + carry
carry = holdDigit \ 10
arr1(i) = holdDigit Mod 10
Next
Case "-"
For i As Integer = 2 To 0 Step -1
'for substraction
holdDigit = arr1(i) - arr2(i) + 10
borrow = holdDigit \ 10
arr1(i) = holdDigit Mod 10
If i = 0 And borrow = 0 Then
Throw New Exception("2nd number larger than first one")
Else
If (borrow = 0) Then arr1(i - 1) -= 1
End If
Next
Case "*"
For i As Integer = 2 To 0 Step -1
'For Multiplication
holdDigit = (arr1(i) * 128) + carry
carry = holdDigit \ 10
If i = 0 Then
arr1(i) = holdDigit
Else
arr1(i) = holdDigit Mod 10
End If
Next
Case "/"
'for Division
For i As Integer = 0 To 2
holdDigit = arr1(i) + borrow * 10
arr1(i) = holdDigit \ 128
borrow = holdDigit Mod 128
Next
End Select
Can some one let me know wether this approach is correct or not? If not please let me know the best possible way to do this.

Hi
i wants to create(Write) file in selected font, can i have any idea?

No, you can not. 
Plain text files do not contain any information regarding formatting like font size, color, margin etc...

I believe, he is looking for .txt and not .rtf

Oooh, yeah. You're right.

Your asked essentially the same question 7 hours ago... try to work it out for yourself.
Write it out on paper and work through the problem.

Dim Count as Integer<br />
For each i in MyArray<br />
if i.contains = "YourString" then<br />
count += 1<br />
next<br />
Something like that?

Do you think any body has this much time to read your code.
Please be specific of your requirement
