Alright, I'll have to get more basic facts about the printer first then?! Thanks anyway.

A bitmap consist of a header telling wich color depth it has how large it is and the data describing the image etc, etc. This is what is supposed to be sent to the printer coverted to ASCII characters. I'm not talking about ASCII art, and it is not "commands" which tells the printer what to do, it is just plain data that the printer interprets as an image. At the moment I haven't got the actual printer model and hence no manual. I thougth that this was a common problem for which there are quite a few solutions to?!

I actually don't have access to the printer at the moment to be able to test and the thing is that the printer can handle either the .PCX file format or ASCII format. According to the project specifications I must convert the .BMP-file I have to ASCII.

Hi everyone. I´m on the hunt for some good code examples on how to convert a bitmap file (In my case a monochrome bitmap) to an ASCII string. This ASCII string will be sent to a QLS-printer to be printed. There must be someone who has run in to the same problem as myself, would anyone like to share his/her experience? Thanks!

Well, the probability that I get values less than E-999 or greater than E+999 is more or less zero, but I thought that it would be cleaner if I could handle both positive and negative values with one format string. I use doubles, but thats not carved in stone...

Hi! I'm looking for a format string (to String.Format()) which is capable of handling the following criterias: My input is a real value like -0.00123456 or 1233456.134 etc. I want the output in scientific representation like "-1.234560E-003". I want the output string to ALWAYS be 14 chars long no matter what. How does the correct format string to accomplish this look like? I've tried "{0:E7}" for positive values and "{0:E6}" for negative values. But this doesn't cover values greater than 9.9999999E+999 and values less than 1.0E-999.

Allright, but how do I do this (I'm fairly new to C#). Is there some examples out there which I can take a peek at?

Hi. I'm developing a small Windows forms application on which I must apply logon security. I need to verify that the user exist in the AD, is part of a certain group and has the proper role. I also need to take care of the fact that the computer might not be connected to the network hence no contact with the domain controller. Does anyone have an idea on how to implement this in a simple way?

I think that this is not the way to do it. I need code examples (C#) on how to access files on a remote computer. Not just to map a network drive. There must be another "cleaner" method to do this. Or am I completely wrong here?

Hi! I'm looking for an example on how to program file access on remote computers. I know the path (share), filename, the username and password on the remote computer, but I don't know how to program the access control. I saw a post in another forum on the internet where someone suggested to use the NET USE command. To me, that doesn't look like the ultimate solution. I read somewhere about Generic prinipals? But there are no examples whatsoever on how to do it?! Does anyone have any experience with that? Regards Mats
