May I have some help on coding this in VB.net console app
If the user selects the ‘Enter RLE’ option:
a. the user is asked how many lines of RLE compressed data they want to enter
b. the program should check that the number entered is greater than 2 and if it isn’t display a suitable error message and get the user to keep re-entering the number until it is valid
c. if the user entered a valid number, they then enter the compressed data one line at a time until they have entered the specified number of lines
d. once all the compressed data has been entered, the program decompresses the data and displays the ASCII art image
e. the user is returned to the main menu.

asked for few solutions. Didn't ask you to complete the whole code.

You didn't ask anything at all. You just posted a bunch of "requirements" for an application and left it at that.
You never defined what you meant by "help".
There is nothing in this app that is complicated at all. It's just an input, an if statement, loops, and printing. Every piece of this app would have been covered in your class.

You basically dumped your requirements but told us nothing about which part you are having troubles with. Remember we know nothing about your current knowledge, we cannot access your mind, so without any issue description your "question" only looks like a 'please do it for me' type of question.
I'm really not trying to be harsch. Maybe reading How to get an answer to your question - Visual Basic Discussion Boards[^] would give you some clues about why we need you to be as specific as possible when you post a question.

Then what are you asking us for?
You've titled your post "cant get Ascii art to display after the RLE file" but haven't shown us any of your code.
So to show you any way of doing this we would have to write (all) the code from scratch. This is not a code writing service. Show us that you have at least tried something and we are usually more than willing to help, but posting angry faces in reply is not a way to gain our good favour

I'm trying to create a CustomBorderlessForm and paint myself. I've gotten the basic functionality
to work but have this issue.
I have derived a TestForm from the custom BorderlessForm and when dropping a menustrip
or toolstrip onto the TestForm, these controls dock at the top of the form overlaying
the title area which I draw myself. I have tried a number of solutions with no success
and now I am just trying to do the simplest thing I can think of.
I have created a property on the BorderlessForm to Enable or Disable showing a MenuStrip.
When Enabled on the derived TestForm, I create a MenuStrip and place it on the TesForm at a specific location.
This works but I cannot edit the MenuStrip from the Designer. Below is code for a custom
ParentControlDesigner in which I am trying to EnableDesignMode to allow editing of the MenuStrip.
However it still does not work.
I have tried debugging into BorderlessFormDesigner below but the Designer does not hit the break point within Initialize(). To do this I have setup the project in MyProject to execute a new instance of VS and load the project. Within the new instance of VS I open the TestForm in the Designer but the Designer does not hit the break point. I've tried setting a break point in both the
first and second instance.
I've done this sort of thing before with other projects with success. I'm guessing maybe these
controls to not support this type of functionality.
If this is possible I would appreciate some advice.
Thank you.

Hi All,
I have a MS Word fillable form template that has many fields I wold like to have an interactive QR Code to incode three fields [Account Number], [Form Name] and [Date] that once the user fill out the form the QR will capture the data entered and generated like pdf forms.
I have downloaded a free QR Code font but unfortunately, it generate many qr for each character not combine to one.
Is there any work around by useing VBA to combine them to one QR?
By the way I found a built-in QR in MS Word 2013 but I do not know how to use it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I've no idea how many chars fit in a QR-code; but that may be important before you decide to encode three fields.

As far as I know, you cannot create a valid QR code using only a font.
A QR code is data encoded into a specific visual format. You're going to need some app or extension for Word to create the QR code image and embed it into the Word document.
I don't know of any as I have no need for anything like this.

Good morning, all -
I'm trying to write some code in an Excel macro to allow me to rename files on an SFTP site before downloading them using wininet.dll.
I've managed to get a simple block written that works well against a test server, but it fails when I try to access the actual server I need.
I suspect that it's because this server uses Port 22, not the standard Port 21. But, I can't see how to change that Port address to what I need.
In InternetOpenA, I've tried setting dwAccessType to INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PROXY (3) and lpszProxy to ftp=ftp://Proxy1:22 (with my specifics replacing the placeholders). But, no good. InternetConnectA refuses to connect. InternetOpenA works fine and returns a valid handle, but I just can't get a connection.
So, since this code worked on the test server using the defaults, I figure I'm not modifying the Port properly for use on my specific server.
All that being said, my question, I think, is; how do I change the port address in the InternetOpenA function?
Oh, an afterthought - would that this is an SFTP, not FTP, be an issue?
Thanx in advance for any assistance!

That's what I did. I tried populating nServerPort with my port address, but no good. Then, further searching informed me that nServerPort is not an actual address, but a flag with values 0-5. I tried using 5 and then set up the address in dwService with port 22 specified, but InternetConnectA still returned 0.

Unfortunately, my programming fu is not as up to the task as I would like. I didn't do any error checking as, well, it wasn't returning an error, as best I could tell. It just wasn't making a connection. As far as the code was concerned, it was doing what it was supposed to do.
Of course, this is all assumption on my part. I'll look at the link you provided, see if I can wrangle out an error code and see what it may be.
But, as I said, the code worked fine with an FTP test site - test.rebex.net - using the default port, 21. The server I'm trying to get to works fine with FileZilla, so the site works, but I think the problem is just the port address; especially as I can't find any way to change it.
I'm wondering if, because it's an SFTP server, if that may be causing an issue, too.
Well, I'll see if I can get an error code and go from there.
Thanx!

That is why you should use GetLastError: to find out why it failed.

That should be easy to test by using the ftp prompt from a command window.

Based on results when I searched on how to utilize GetLastError, I found that it was not recommended because basic makes a lot of other API calls that will displace the error. So, the suggestion was to use Err.LastDllError.
I did that and got an error of 12002, Time out. So, that seems to verify my presumption that it's the port address setting.
Port 21 is failing, because the server isn't listening to that port - for security reasons - and I'm not successfully changing the port address to 22, the one it is listening to.
So, I guess my bottom line question is, how do I change the port address using InternetConnectionA in wininet.dll? The methods that I tried all failed, so I'm doing something wrong.
