Visual Basic :: Making A Program Run For All Users

Making A Users Input Become A AutoNum Field
I have document that has 3 sections in it which i have set eaction section number as an autonum so that if a user deletes say section 2, section 3 will become section 2 etc.

I have created a form that i want a user to add new sections to the document. The users enters in the new section number and title of section.

How do i make the section number that the user types into the form a autonum field?

The output after user clicks ok shows "Section <2> - Name of Section"
How do i make <2> an autonum???...

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Problems With Multiple Users Making Updates In Access
Hi,

I'm running into some problems with an Access application where multiple users are using one Access Database for Data Entry.

The users use multiple checkboxes on a form, to fill a seperate table based on which checkboxes are checked. I loop through all of controls on the form and update my table as required. The problem is that when all of the users (approx. 10) are using the form, the system starts to lag to the point where their updates are taking up to 7 minutes. Here is the Code that I'm using to fill the table.

<code> For Each myControl In Form.Controls

        If TypeOf myControl Is CheckBox Then
            If myControl.Value <> True Then
                strQueryString = "insert into tbl select '" + myControl.name + "' as value2,

                CurrentDb.Execute strQueryString

            End If
        End If

    Next myControl
</code>
I've tried CurrentDB.Close but it doesn't seem to help. Any thoughts??

Graph9.exe; Do Users Need It To Use My Program?
I have just created an EXE which has numerous graphs in it. I originally used those from MSCHART, but found this very limited. I then switched to MSGRAPH which is alot more functional. However I noticed, that when I run my program, GRAPH9.exe (from the Microsoft Office Directory) is launched in the background. Does this mean that potential users of this program must have Office and or GRAPH9 installed on their PC. I was really hoping to make this a completely independant program. Would using MSCHART be any different.

Thanks in advance

Program With Users, And Passwords
hey guys, what's up? this is my first post on any forum at all, so i really need some help! here's the story. i am trying to create a program sorta like the logon screen of windows 2000. i have a place for a user name, and password. i have 3 users, and 3 passwords. you can select the user name by a drop down box. the problem i am having is that the computer isn't able to know which username belongs to which password. so is there a way to determine that? i was told that it might work through ADORecordSet, but wasn't quite sure what that was. eventually i want to build up on my program with several more users. ALSO, is there a way that you can COMPLETELY LOG everything that someone does with your program? if there is please let me know! thanks!

My Program Won't Fit On The Users Screen!
So you read the title, and you're thinking "man, this guy is thick. It's the screen resoloution". Haha

Anyways....

I installed my app on a few computers today and some of them don't display the screen properly. I developed the app using 1024 x 768 resolution so naturally anyone using 800 x 600 will have issues. However, these computers are using the correct resolution. For some reason though everything looks as though it's set to 800 x 600.

I think it has something to do with the font. The offending computers seem to have much larger font and it also shows up in a different style. I've encountered and fixed this problem before (long ago), but I forget what it could be.

Help?

How Can I Prevent Users From Uninstalling My Program?
Hello,

First and foremost, I am NOT attempting to create spyware, or so...

I am creating a program that hides sensitive data, so logically I have to forbid anyone from uninstalling the program except the person who had install it first.

So my question is:

How I can prevent the client from uninstalling my program unless he log in with a password to the program, then he can uninstall it from inside.

I want if he tries to uninstall it from the control panel, a message box pop ups asking him to uninstall the software from from inside. I saw many program does it.

Please tell me; is it done by code or registry or what?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Create One Instance Of A Program When Switching Users In Windows
Hi,
Does any1 know how to startup a program when windows loads then when you switch users the same instance of the program is working in the background .
For example for Prog A:
windows starts
user1 logs into windows
progA is loaded
then if you switch user to user 2 using the windows function
progA is still running in the background for both
and if the 2nd user needs to run prog A it will load the same application as was loaded in user1's environment, instead of creating a new instance of prog A

I know I could startup my program using either the current user or local machine in registry but they seem to open a new instance of the same program when you use the switch user function . I am also using windows XP

thanks

Domain Based Users - Program Cannot Insert Or Update A Record
Hi guys,

I would like to ask for your help because my problem is freaking me out...

I have this application written in vb6. This app connects to the SQL server 2k complete with the latest SPs. The SQL server is installed in NT 4 server, also with the latest updates. Usually, our SYSADMIN updates our machines everytime there's an update available from Microsoft.

My application was written at home on a win2k pro machine(stand alone) with SP3,vb sp5 and mdac 2.8. I tested my app before delivering at it was fine. I tested it on XP and it worked fine after I register some DLLs manually.

The problem I have is on the networked environment. The users on this network is on, let's say, domain A. So users are actually created on the NT server. A PC local account(ordinary not admin) is also different. When I connect to the database, I get this error that I'm not allowed to update the database when I try to update a value. I also unable to insert a record but I can read the records. I already set the permissions for the database user.

My additional questions are:

1. Do I need to specify a (SQL) user name on my ado connection string. Is this better than using trusted connection? Security wise, I know this is better.

2. Is having multiple domains affects the read write process of the SQL server? I think the sysADMIN wants to integrate the domain user account to the SQL user accounts.

And one more thing. Why is it that in my app, datagrids of my app installed on XP machines can show the records and those in win 2k cannot? I copied and registered the DLLs from my XP machine to WIN2K pro and it is still not working. MS Visual Studio Installer should copy and register DLLs for us, shouldn't it?

Thanks a lot!

This One Program I Am Making
Im making this one program for quake 3. It’s to add colors to your name. In quake the code to make your names into color is basically a "^" sign with the numbers 1 through 6 for different colors. for example "^1" makes your name red, and “^1Hello ^2Bob” would make Hello red and Bob green. In the program I want it to do this. I have a rich text box linked with command buttons that tell it to change the selected text in the textbox the color of the button you click on. How would I do the coding? I am thinking it would be a lot of If and Then statements. I have a text box at the bottom that when you press create it should write the code into the txtCode textbox. Any ideas?

I Am Making A Program And...
hi

i am in the process of designing my program and now am ready to begin contstructing it on VB.

what i am working on at the moment is adding a button using the HoverCommand UserControl which i obtained from a link provided to me on this site.

i only have 2 questions - firstly i intend to use my program for commercial purposes (if possible) and i understand that i need to display some information about the original coders of the HoverCommand control >>> can anybody tell me what i should include in code or maybe within the program itself (like in help section...maybe?)

secondly i am actually not sure how to add the user control to my new project - is it a case of putting the control file into the same folder as my project and then copying the code over or what? i've never done this before and would like to know how i can begin putting it on my app immediately.

otherwise thx,

I want to make a simple program with 2 textboxes and a button on a form. When you hit the button, it sends a message(designated by Text1) to a user on AIM(Designated by text2).

Making A Program That...
Hey all. I am a hardcore level editor for a game Drakan: Order of The Flame. I have recently found a way to do something with the character files that allows new vertecies to be added to them using an ASCII editor. This process takes a long time and I am fairly new to Visual Basic Programming. I want to know If anyone would have a general Idea of what I need to do to make a program that:

1) Allows you to enter the Vertecies of one file

2) Merges or allows you to copy+paste them into another file

3) Creates and Saves a new file.

As of now, It takes about 2 hours to just add and texture one of these modified files. I am the only one that currently knows this technique but If I can make this program It could allow all other PCL creators to make new characters. I don't know if this is enough information for you to help me but if you need more Info I can give it.

I posted one of the files that I would like to be a "Production" of this program. They are the REC files and can be opened with any text editor.

Thank You,

Making A Program Just With Api
HEHE...... sorry but I still know so little about API, and still got much to learn.

Okay.... i know how to make buttons and forms with just API, but what I want to know.... is how can you make a command for it, like, if they click the button..... APIs doesn't have stuff like "Command1_Click", "Text1_Change" etc.. How would you make one in API?

If you can't explain, any codes would be good enough..... or both should be perfect..... If none of the above then, "WHERE ARE THE API GURUs!?!?! HELP ME OUT!"

Thank you.

There is a problem in thius program as this is my first time using vb4 and my vb6 can't work as there say that I need to reinstall MSDN eventhough I fully installed it! (This is the 2nd problem I hope people can help me too...)

Firsty of all, this program has a click button, when clicked, will first activate the internet explorer, then stop to alert me and allow me to go to the website i want and go to the "submit" button on the website, then i can fill in what i want, then i press "ok" from the msgbox to continue the program and let it send "enter" to the "submit" button in the IE5.5 and then wait 10secs for the website to submit the details and then autorefers to another page in IE, after my vb wait 10sec, it will then SendKeys "%{LEFT}", True and so IE would go back to the "submit" page again. and the process repeats again for 100 times.

the problem i met in win98 is that IE keeps opening and opening and doesn't give me time to input the info on the website and i'm not sure if the keystrokes is working.

hope that someone can help me correct the thing above or at least suggest an alternatives...

this program which i want to create, main objective is to submit information on a website 100x. hope that someone can help me on that.

thanks alot
