Hello everyone:
I need guidance on how to start with this small project.
I need to implement a web interface that will access applications that developed in vb.net with sql back end.
What I mean is the following:
I have two small applications, one is fire arms registration and the other is logistic.
Both apps reside on the same sql server.
I want to have a web interface that will point to each one base on the user access.
that is if the user is from fire arm than fire arm registration app will launch and so on..
of course this can for a number of applications.
The general purpose of this, is to have access to these applications via the web.
what best solution to use in order to accomplish this task.
I would like to know what i need to consider first in all aspect of this task.
Thanks in advance for your guidance and help.

What do you mean 'access applications'? You want to give a WEB UI to it or launch an exe? If launch then, since it's a web interface, exe needs to be downloaded to client system and then launched. If you do a process.start on server, it will not be on client system and they will now see/know.

Thanks for reply:
I want to give a WEB UI to it. All the user ought to do is to simply log in through a web interface.
Be mindful the application is an executable, it can be installed on a client machine.
For the WEB UI, it will be installed on the server.
The application can be accessed directly on the server or through the WEB UI.
I do not want to user to download anything. Simply login and based on his/her login ID will determine which application that will launch.
Once again thank you.

Launch where? On client or server?
If server, what's the use?
If client, you understand that it has to be downloaded on client system and then installed to be used.

Thanks again
On the server

hi
your feedback will be appreciated.
thanks
|
|

|

Well, I was waiting for your full response.
I did asked this too: If server, what's the use?
Can you share the expected workflow from logging in to returning back something to user.
I get that one executable needs to be picked, what after that, what role does it play and how does client come to know/use it. Since it will not be downloaded and will be launched on server side, what are you trying achieve?

Thanks again,
This is what I want to accomplish:
Let's say I have two applications developed in vb.net with sql as database namely fire arms registration and vehicle registration respectively.
these two applications centrally reside on the same server. i want to allow authorized user to access these application through a WEB UI.
For example, if I am way from the office location and I need to use any one of these apps, I can simply login to a web interface and perform any operation i so desire as long I have access privilege.
These applications are executable. it can be installed on a client machine as they are being deployed right now.
there is a need to have these apps available through an URL...
I hope that I am a little clearer now and you can have an idea of my train of thought and process.
Thanks a lot.

ASP.NET
Still sounds like a trick-question. You'd have to write a Web-UI.
Or use something like Citrix.

I am Creating a Client that uses email to send and recieve text messages. I only have to problems when i recieve the mail from the server it goes into my listbox but how do i make that listbox string, when selected, open the body of the message in a richtextbox. Here is my code so far.
Also here is a picture of the GUI so you can see the problem a little more clearly.
Click Here For GUI Picture
The messages are put into the Inbox i just cant display the body of the message in the richtext box when selected from the listbox. Any Help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim strMailServer, strUsername, strPassword, strFrom, strSubject, strToo, strBody, strMailContent As String
Dim popConn As Text_Me_Now.POP3
Dim mailMess As Text_Me_Now.EmailMessage
Dim intMessCnt, i As Integer
strMailServer = "pop.gmx.com"
strUsername = "xxxxxxx@gmx.com"
strPassword = "xxxxxxx"
Button2.Enabled = False
popConn = New Text_Me_Now.POP3
mailMess = New Text_Me_Now.EmailMessage
popConn.POPConnect(strMailServer, strUsername, strPassword)
intMessCnt = popConn.GetMailStat()
If intMessCnt > 0 Then
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
For i = 1 To intMessCnt
strMailContent = popConn.GetMailMessage(i)
strFrom = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "From:")
strSubject = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "Subject:")
strToo = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "To:")
strBody = mailMess.ParseBody()
ListBox1.Items.Add(strFrom & ", " & strSubject)
Next i
End If
popConn.CloseConn()
Button2.Enabled = True
End Sub
Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object,

You appear to have extracted all the relevant information for the message, but the only thing you are storing in the ListBox items collection is the from and and subject parts as a single string.
ListBox1.Items.Add(strFrom & ", " & strSubject)
I would suggest that instead of storing this string, that you instead define a class to hold the relevant information.
Something like this:
Public Class MessageItem
Public From As String
Public Body As String
Public Subject As String
Public Sub New(ByVal From As String, ByVal Subject As String, ByVal Body As String)
Me.From = From
Me.Body = Body
Me.Subject = Subject
End Sub
Public Overrides Function ToString() As String
Return From & ", " & Subject
End Function
End Class
Instead of adding items directly to the ListBox, you bind the ListBox to a List(of MessageItem). Define this list at the form level like this:
Private Messages As New List(Of MessageItem)
In the FormLoad event handler, place this statement:
ListBox1.DataSource = Messages
The ToString Function defined in the class will provide the text displayed for the item in the ListBox.
Now in your button_click handler, replace this code:
'call the functions to get the various parts out of the email
strFrom = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "From:")
strSubject = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "Subject:")
strToo = mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "To:")
strBody = mailMess.ParseBody()
'add email details to the list box
ListBox1.Items.Add(strFrom & ", " & strSubject)
with this:
Dim msg As New MessageItem(mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "From:"), _
mailMess.ParseEmail(strMailContent, "Subject:"), _
mailMess.ParseBody())
Messages.Add(msg)
Also replace ListBox1.Items.Clear() with Messages.Clear()
Now in your ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged method you can set the textbox text with something like this:
RichTextBox1.Text = CType(ListBox1.SelectedItem, MessageItem).Body

Sorry, it's been a busy day at work...
When you search AD, you need to search in a Container, not an OrganizationalUnit. Change your strSearchOU from "OU=Users" to "CN=Users".

Now I've run into another issue, I get this error when running the script.
User LDAP://CN=First Last,CN=Users,DC=Domain, DC=local Get LastLogon Failed. The directory property cannot be found in the cache.

I am making text to speech converter in vb.net. I want a sliding volume button for the volume adjustment, I have tried it but its not working and I want one button which works for both pause/resume together with a timer that shows how much the time is taken in reading text. Please help me with simple and easy codes it would solve my problem because its my project and here is my code for tts:
Public Class FormTTS
Public SAPI = CreateObject("SAPI.spVoice")
Public Paused As Boolean = False
Private Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, ByVal bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Integer, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Integer)
Const KEYEVENTF_KEYUP As Long = &H2
Private Sub btnread_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnread.Click
SAPI.Speak(TextBox1.Text, 3)
TextBox2.Text = "0"
Timer1.Interval = 500
Timer1.Enabled = True
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
MessageBox.Show("You didn't fill in the fields!")
End If
End Sub
Private Sub btnpause_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnpause.Click

I wish to design a small application to read very lengthy datas in a single page with scrollable manner...
I mean, in single page 3-Datagridviews and some pages of text needed to read from a split container....
For that I wish to have a lenghty form to achieve it in a single page through scroll bar...
Does any body can show the details..... VS-2010
Thanks ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

The DataGridView has something called "virtual mode". Instead of databinding (and the overhead), it simply requests the values that should be on-screen. That means that you can display the first records immediately after loading them. There's a walkthrough[^] on MSDN.
For it to work nicely, you'd load your data on a separate thread, using a reader, and synchronize every now and then (every second or every 100 items).
