Visual Basic

Try using Int32.Parse() This function converts a string into a Int32 type. You can find more info in Help Free your mind...

I had this problem once. I moved my code to another machine and it worked fine. In the end I reinstalled VB and all was fine. Also make sure you have all Services packs (for windows and VB). I ask myself what did I do today? I don't like the answer!

How to make the other form be a member of the MDICHILDREN? I want to call a second FORM from the first FORM through a button(first FORM is already a MDI CHILD). How to make this second FORM be a part of the MDI? thanx!

And C# is missing this functionality (unless you like to have 10's of overloads). This is one of the main reason I am still mainly developing in VB.NET. Has everything C# has (almost) plus some extras... I also feel the IDE is much more responsive with VB.NET... My 2¢. Carl

I have asked a great Delphi coder to code something that detects if the framework is installed. If it is, it launches my application, if not, it tells the user which version is required (1.0/1.1) and gives the option to install it (from the CD). Very efficient way of doing it. The good thing about it being done in Delphi is that it requires no external DLL or runtime (VB6 would require VBRUN6.DLL). It could also have been done in C++, but we felt Delphi was a better language for this purpose.

I'll bite! Ummmm... no.

Of course remember to show it non modal... No Matter where you are, there you are

You are right I wanted to do that... But How to capture TCP/UDP or only TCP will also do now???

Kinda tricky question - ADO is a BIG topic... You can start with something like the code below (quick'n dirty) - remember to make a reference to some version of "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects Library" or other in your project. Dim DBConn As ADODB.Connection Dim RS As ADODB.Recordset Dim ConnectionString As String Dim Query As String ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\myDatabase.mdb" Query = "Select * from myTable" Set DBConn = New ADODB.Connection DBConn.Open ConnectionString Set RS = DBConn.Execute(Query) Do Until (RS.EOF)     MsgBox(RS.Fields(0))     RS.MoveNext Loop RS.Close Set RS = Nothing DBConn.Close Set DBConn = Nothing I would recomend that you download "Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.6 SDK from" Microsoft. It's quite informative and containes a lot of examples for Visual Basic... (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=cf5bf48d-9bbb-4ca2-9b03-4ee000db37ff&DisplayLang=en)

They have samples for accessing generic HASP DLL which is in C++ or Visual Basic 6.0. You could call generic DLL (Win32 DLLs) in VB.NET. Shouldn't be a problem. Sonork 100.41263:Anthony_Yio

Thanks, I appreciate the help.
