Using MS Word To Do Full-text Indexing To A Document.
Hi.
I'm doing an EDMS application and I was wondering if it is possible for a VB application to do a full-text index/search on a document using MS Word?
For example, I scanned a document. Then I do a search using the VB application to search for any document containing the word "certificate". Is it possible for the VB application to use MS Word for this function?
Thanks.

Full Justifying Text In A Rich Text Control
I'm trying to create basic word processing functionality for text in a rich text control. I can do bolding, underlining, bulleting, etc., but I don't know how to change the justification. I would like the user to have their choice of left, center, right, and full. If anyone knows how to do this please let me know. I've been struggling for a while on it.

Full Text Search
Guys and Gals,
I would like to be able to perform a full text search on a directory. This directory contains many files and i'd like to be able to search for one or more words in the contents of any of these files. Does any body have any suggestions on how this could be done using VB6? I thought there may be an API call that I could use in windows as explorer comes with the same type of search I am looking for. Any Ideas?
Full Text Search Vb6
Can someone show me how to perform a full text search through a VB program please?
Full Text Index
Hello.
I use full text index on my DB.
I use the incremental population as I need to index, on the spot, every new record in specific table and right after that I use a query to search the new inserted record.
Sometimes it seems like the population is not complete or not done at all...
How can I operate the incremental population from VB ?
I know the "sp_fulltext_catalog" but how do I use it and Is there any sign that the index is done ?
Thanks.
Full Text Searching
hi all,
How can i enable full text searching (indexing)-- If you might recall ... when windows is newly installed .. and for the first time you go for windows help ... it gives a message Preparing Index for first use.
This type of search is far more faster and accurate than the usual
select * from tablename where fieldname like 'abc%'
Is there any windows component that can be used or any third party product available ?
thanks

Receiving Full Text In Mscomm
I am receving text messages, similar to instant messaging program using an IR modem and MScomm.ocx . Sending is not a problem but when i receive a text data with more than 8 characters, it will go to a new line. Eg.
Sender : hello world
Receiver : hello wo
Receiver : rld
How can i fix this problem? I tried increasing the in/out buffer size but to no avail. I thought of breaking the data into different packets and transmit, but i do not know about how to do that. Any suggestions?
Thanx!
Opening A Full Text File
Here is the code I am using:
Private Sub cmdOpen_Click()
Dim data As String
Open "C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsMy ProjectsVisual BasicKidWareTestsStop Watchactivities.dat" For Input As #1
Input #1, data
Close #1
txtSavedActivities.Text = data
End Sub
The only problem is is that activities.dat contains more than just one line of text that I would like to open into my text area. How do I do that? With this code it only opens up the first line of text.
Full Text Search In SQL Server For Use In VB
Hi,
Yesterday while i was reading a book of ASP, i read that SQL server has some service called full text search which will help to quicker adhoc and wild card searches. Instead of using the LIKE key word in sql statement through a ASP program which tend to slow down the processing, we can use the CONTAINS key word in the sql statements for quicker results.
I am not yet clear about the concept, its userfulness and how it should be used in VB?
Can anyone describe the FULLTEXT search functionality and how effective it is when compare to normal LIKE queries?
Thanks in advance

Full Text Index Question
I am having some difficulty with a table that contains 2 full text indexes. Both fields are defined as char, and one contains a city name, while the other contains a SPLC. A SPLC is a number used in the trucking industry that looks like this...
501234 000
511243 250
123432 251
They are assigned by a government agency to deliverable locations around North America. Anyway I need my users to be able to search for SPLC's either by city name or by full and/or partial SPLCs. Sometimes they only know the first 6 digits or so... okay, so that is what I need. I thought I could use the full text indexing on the SPLC field because it is defined as char (have to accomadate the space). The problem I am running into is this...
If I use CONTAINS(SPLC,"250") for example, I will get back any SPLC's that have the 250 for the last 3 digits after the space. However, if I search like CONTAINS(SPLC,"501234") I will not get anything back, even though it exists in my database. Is their something special I need to do to make the indexing work on numbers in a character field? I mean, there isn't a whole lot to mess up in building a full text index...
So, if anyone can help, or has heard of this problem before, I would be grateful.
Creating A Full Text Index
I'm trying to create a full text index on one of my tables, but I'm getting the following message and the index is not added to the full test catalog:
"The selected table has no unique single column index on a column that does not allow nulls.
Can someone shed some light on this please? My table has 3 indexed primary keys defined.

Text Overlay (Full Screen) ?
Hello VBCity Community,
My problems is as follows and im sure that you chaps will have a few ways of probably going about this.
Scenario - Full Screen DX Window (Game/App/Etc).
Question - I have Hotkey`setup to Enable/Disable items whilst the Game/App is in progress although my problem is, The only way i can let the user know that the *Mod* Is active is by giving them an "Audio Wav" or something of that nature.
Is there anyway i can "Force" a simple "Text" overlay onto an active DX full screened app ? thus the user will then have a "Visual" aid to suggest to him her that the items have been enabled.
Many Thx, i hope i makes sense there.

Replace Text With Full ASCII Code?
does anyone have that code that will replace everything in data.txt with it's ASCII code? or a function that will do it? Something like this:
Private Function ASCII(data As String) As String
data = Replace(data, ">", "%3E")
data = Replace(data, "`", "%60")
data = Replace(data, "{", "%7B")
data = Replace(data, "|", "%7C")
data = Replace(data, "}", "%7D")
data = Replace(data, "~", "%7E")
data = Replace(data, ":", "%3A")
data = Replace(data, ";", "%3B")
data = Replace(data, "<", "%3C")
data = Replace(data, "=", "%3D")
data = Replace(data, Chr(34), "%22")
PostASCII = data
End Function
I dont think i can find all the ascii. does anyone have it done already?
Combo Box - Showing Full Text In Dropdown
This is my first post, so hello all. I'm glad I discovered this forum, it been of great help.
OK, I have a simple VB combo box and the old problem of not being able to see the full text of the dropdown items cos the length of the text is too long.
I've read in previous posts how to increase the size of the dropdown width, but I was thinking more in the line of Windows explorer and how it shows a tooltips type label if the text doesn't fit within a window.
So my question is how can I show the full text in a combo box, where the text is longer then the width of the drop down without increasing the width of the dropdown.
I've seen many standard windows applications using a method of displaying a yellow tooltips style text to show the full text in listboxes, tree views etc, but how can I do this with the standard combo?
Full Text Search && Retrieval... On A CD?! Cheap?
I'm starting the process of creating a CDROM distribution and will be writing the systems in VB.
One of the functions of the CD should be free text searching on the 10,000 (or so) documents stored on it(html or text).
I'm pretty comfortable with our Website implementation of this as IŽll be using ColdFusion with Verity as the indexing software. Works a treat. Trust me.
Anyone have any fine ideas on products thatŽll allow me to implement the same speedy search results / indexing on the CDROM using a VB program?
I've seen a few products on the market but at prices of $6000+ (with extra licensing costs too! Marvellous...)
As this CD is likely to be for fairly limited distribution it's simply not worth the cost. Any one seen any MUCH cheaper products that'll do the job?

Print Image Full Page With Text Overlay?
Hey all,
As a possible solution to this thread, I've decided it might be easier to make the pdf pages i need into seperate images and print the images (taking up a full sheet of paper) with a text overlay of the text i was trying to put in the pdf fields when I need to. My only problem is that I have absolutely no idea how to do that.
I need to make sure the image file stretches across an entire page, and there needs to be a way to put text on top of the image file (so it appears as if the text is actually right where someone would write information).
Any pointers? Any help would be great, I don't mind using the API at all, and I'm willing to do a hunk of this myself..I just need some direction.

Printing A Full Page Image With Text Inserted
I am wanting to create a program that a user can input certain information and then have that information printed on a pre-designed form (a .gif, .jpg, etc... image). What I am having problems with is taking the textbox information and adding it to a picture then printing it. I thought about using printform, but the image does not fit on the page. I was going to use a picturebox, but I don't know how to print one using the image and the textboxs I had put on there. Is this possible or is there an easier way? I greatly appreciate any help on this subject.

Indexing
I have used VB6 and have had a great time indexing text boxes, label, command buttons, etc. However, VBA doesn't seem to have this capability, is that correct? Is anyone aware of how to add this wonderful and seemingly simple feature to VBA? Thanx.
Indexing
how do i change the index value of a control?
I have 5 textboxes and a commandbutton on a userform. when i click the button i want the data to creae a line on a excel spreadsheet.
But if i add another text box i want to be able to click the button without changing the code for the button.
They way i thought of would be when i click the button it changes the buttons control index to the total number of controls. This would then be the last control so i could then loop through the other controls to retrieve the data.
How would i do this?

Indexing 2 Controls
Is it possible to "index" a textbox?
I am trying to create a "search" function for a listbox via the type text/find in list method. The problem is , even if you "find" the wanted text in the listbox, it will only find the text if it is the first word in the lists index, for example, if the listbox.list(x) text = [for example]:
mp3 food, dog dogs
if your search text is m, mp, or mp3 it will be found, BUT.. if your search text is fo, foo, food it will not find that line see what i mean ?
so , essentially what i want to do is find ANY text in a listbox whether or not it is the beginning of a line, as the only codes ive found here or elsewhere will only find the text if it is indeed the beginning of that line and not an addtional word
any ideas ?
Thanks ...

VB List Indexing
Hi can anyone advise how I call on a range of data for example B1:Z1, in my current code below I am using & to add all the row and column data together, I would like to avoid this approach.
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
With Me.ComboBox1
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set SourceWB = Workbooks.Open("DATA LOADER.xls", _False, True)
Header.Value = SourceWB.Worksheets(2).Cells(Me.ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1, 2).Value & " " _
& SourceWB.Worksheets(2).Cells(Me.ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1, 3) & " " _
& SourceWB.Worksheets(2).Cells(Me.ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1, 4) & " " _
& SourceWB.Worksheets(2).Cells(Me.ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1, 5)
End With

Indexing A String
Is there an easy way to index the characters of a String in VB. I can't believe that there would not be an easy way to do this. I need to be able to loop through each character in a string and it has turned out to be a pain in the butt!
In Java or C: myString[index]
In VB: <Your solution here>
Indexing A Big File
Hi, I'm glad to find this site. This is my first post and I hope to get real help.
To give a background, I have a big file (approx. 700,000 records and growing) stored as fixed-length string. Every month, I receive approx. 12,000 records from other source and approx. 2,000 are new. To check which among these 12,000 records are new, I have to search that 700,000 records reading from first entry to last entry for every record in 12,000.
If a record in one of the 12,000 is not in the 700,000, a copy of the former will be added to the latter. The process really takes days to complete with the computer running 24 hours.
I am thinking of indexing the 700,000 file but I can't, unless I will convert it, perhaps, to MDB and use the indexing feature of that platform. But that 700,000 record file must maintain backward compatibility that I cannot change the format (I just inherit it). The record can be accessed using UDT.
Now, the help that I need; is there a way, or, can anyone help me with knowledge on how to go about indexing this file? A tip, link, or anything. Asking for codes may be too much as I expect it to be very large too, but if you can spare me, even with old codes that I can probably start with, I would appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
Indexing TB Problem

Any help would be phenomenal! Thanks
