Hi, There are ways, but you need to consider carefully what simoutaneous updating you wish to do. For example if you have a database of names and addresses and two people wish to update it at same time, then if they wish to update different records, no problem should occur. …

Are you sure these people aren't trying to track your equipment so they can steal it ? Or maybe hackers can find your equipment when you are using it ?

If you were watching a film was laptop on carpet, bedclothes, etc. I have this and it blocks air vents, causing laptop to overheat and stop. The moral of the story - always put your laptop on a smooth surface so air flows around it.

Hello, I use streamwriter/streamreader for writing and reading text files. To read files you need something like s1="path and filename" Dim rf As New StreamReader(s1) linne=rf.readline . . rf.close For writing to files you need something like Using outp As New StreamWriter(data_path$ & Convert.ToString("weight.dat"), True) outp.writeline (var1,var2,.....) outp.close Don't forget …

Alternatively, create a query in access which has all the information (fields, data selected, etc) you want, then access the query and not the table in your program.

I am writing a VB.Net (VS 2015) application to control equipment in real time which is connected via USB ports. The equipment requires that text string, terminated by a chr(13) be sent. Most commands will get a response back. For example one command (set VALVE1 ON) will open a valve …

I assume you can get the results you want in the database with a query and report ? If so then access the query from VB6 and do what you will with the results.

To answer your question - yes it is possible. I am not a C expert, but the principle I would use is to read in line by line. For each line see if the users' string exists. This assumes that the string you are searching for is completely on a …

As some of you know I am moving to VB.net from VB5. I see that to read and write to text files there are two options 1) Use System.IO.File e.g Filewritealltext ( options...) or 2) Use Streamwriter e.g Dim ts as StreamWriter( options...) Are there any differences, apart from syntax, …

Should the slashes after website name be pointing other way ? I am not sure why you have two references to website.com in your link e.g http://www.website.com/www.website.com\images\logo\logo.png

I think whatever forum you are on people tend not to put a sensible title on their posts. e.g 'Please help' Now that the forum is tagged based it is more obvious. Before if you saw a post in VB5 or 6, for example, wheich was titled 'Please help' then …

Are you using Excel ? if so then write your results to one sheet. Then put a page heading in, via Page layout, then hit print button. You can scale it to get more on a page, etc.

I need to interface to a USB device from VB.net, where I both read and write to the device. Are there any programing differences between the different USB interfaces, i.e 1,2 and 3 that I should be aware ? Does it matter if say a USB 3 device is plugged …

Hello, I know VB5 better than 6 but in this statement of yours If Data1.Recordset.Fields("C_Number"**) = Text15.Text(i) the index has got to be on recordset, surely, because you have multiple records in recordset and not in Text box ? Hope this points you right direction

Hi This is not a language that I am familiar with, but in line 6 you have int countlev_easy = 0,countlev_med = 0,countlev_hard = 0; In the test you appear to be comparing these variables with letters, not numbers ..........
