Very New To Visual Basic And I Have Some Questions
I'm very new to visual basic and I'm trying to create a program which will view a specified website when the URL is typed in the Textbox and Button is clicked.
Once the website is opened. I want my program to search that website for a specific HTML string (ex; <img src="images/ex.gif"> ). If it finds that specified string, it will do a popup notice and say "String Found". If it doesn't find it, It will refresh each 3-5 seconds until that image is found in the source code (the page is a PHP page and it dynamically changes).
Can anyone help me with this?

Visual Basic 101 Questions
I'm really new when doing projects with visual basic. so please bear with me. I just work out my first project and it turned out really good but I have several questions.
1) I noticed all my macros/vb code ended up on the excel sheet and not a module is this good/bad? It works fine but This created a problem with size which was resolved by reducing lines of useless code.
How would I separate a Private/public sub into module format?
I've tried to separate the two items and put into a module but I haven't broken the code.
(Example this continuous string is all located on the sheet and nothing is in the modules) It happened by mistake but works very well.
Private Sub CommandButton23_Click()
' SISAC Import Utility
destfile = ActiveWorkbook.Name
' open file
inputfile = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show
If inputfile = False Then Exit Sub
inputfile = ActiveWorkbook.Name
ActiveSheet.Range("D1").Select
inputSISAC = Selection.Value
Select Case inputSISAC
Case "v2004a"
CS_SAC
Case Else
' this displays a message if the value of cell D1 is not v2004a.
MsgBox "The file you selected was not a valid SISAC v2004a input file."
End Select
End Sub
Public Sub CS_SAC()
Workbooks(inputfile).Sheets("areas").Range("B2").Copy
Workbooks(destfile).Sheets("SENIOR MEMBER NOTES").Range("b1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues
2) It seems smarter to put items into the module to save and isolate different tasks. So if I put a macro into a module how do I call the module for tasking?
3) what is the difference between a private and public sub
Thanks
Some Questions In Visual Basic 6
Hello everyone,
I have a question in VB 6:
1.) Currently, I am working on an application, which has two textboxes and a button to "clear" them. However, I am not sure how I would go about coding the clear button to reset everything that the user would type in the textbox. Does anyone know how to do this??
If someone could answer this, it would be much appreciated
2 Questions On Visual Basic 6!!!
I have two questions to ask about form interactment and they are as follows;
1. How can you make a form the main form because im sick of having to go back to the start to access the form i want to preview in run mode. Then after i can change it back. Also how do you cut a form out of one project and put it in another project.
2. How can i create really good looking text and make it 3D and basically just make a title that stands out.
Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!
Visual Basic Questions!
Hey Everyone im back again now
Anyways i have two points really to ask. One point is very basic and im sure you can help me with but the other point im just curious about. Anyways
1. When i load forms up i use
load form1
form1.show
and when i close them down with a back button i use
Unload me
Whats the way to load a form and close the previous one leaving just the loaded form loaded.
2. Is it possible to have a button or something where when you leave the mouse over and it opens another part (Like windows does when you leave it over programs) and then you can click on those selections that have opened up.
Thanks
Visual Basic 6 Questions
I'm trying to make a CSS generator, so bare with me here.
How can I make a button that will save the contents of a label to a text file? Either that, or copy it to the clipboard.
And is it possible to make a label pop-up in a new window (full screen) with that button to save/copy it?
Another question, I set up a list thing, now I want it when they click a list item, a frame will appear, such as they click body, and the frame called Body will appear and replace the frame that was there already. Say, Links frame was open, and I want the Body frame to take it's place when body is clicked in the list. Is this possible, where each frame has it's own buttons, inputs, variables, and commands?
One more, I don't know how to put this in question form, so say I have a combpbox, that looks like this:
-Option1
-Option2
-Option3
I want the user to select one, and then be able to output the choice, say they choose Option2, when the click the generate button, Option2's value would show.
Some Really Basic Visual Basic Questions
Hey all,
...I'm stressing the really here. Reading through some of these topics, it looks like you guys are all really advanced in this program.
I, on the other hand, am a complete VB newbie who needs to hand in a stupid project for calculus class tomorrow.
Long story short, we need to create a basic job application, about five or six forms long.
I have no idea how to code the buttons that I'm using. I need to make one command button send the user to the next form, and I need to make another exit out of the project entirely.
How would I go about doing this?
Thanks!
Essential Questions About Vba And Visual Basic
Hi ^^. First time I am new using vba (thank you dear Boss) so please excuse me for what I will ask.
1. Is it possible to directly call vba functions from a visual basic form?
2. Practical question:
I have to write a program in visual basic 6.0 that checks each fields of a column in a .csv file and compare them to the information in another column in another file; to see if they are in. In fact I have to make an application with it because the people that will use it aren't familiar with using macros.
Until now, my boss used that macro:
Sub checkReceipts()
Range("I2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-4],'[myreceipts.xls]Receipts'!C1:C2,1,FALSE)"
Range("I2:I65500").Select
Range("I65500").Activate
/* why can't we directly put something like Range("I2:I65500").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-4],'[myreceipts.xls]Receipts'!C1:C2,1,FALSE)"??? */
Selection.FillDown
Columns("I:I").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
I don't really understand. Ok, the lookup functions seems to be used to check each field of my myreceipts.xls file but:
why when I am trying to do the same in visual basic 6.0 does it take like 15 times longer?I am probably doing the same the function does which is cheking the information by comparing two arrays...
Is there a function like VLOOKUP I could use directly from visual basic (for my application) that would be as efficient (fast) as this one?
I found something like this while browsing the net:
Dim Arg1 As Object
Dim Arg2 As Object
Dim Arg3 As Object
Dim Arg4 As Object
Dim returnValue As Object
Dim worksheetFunction1 As WorksheetFunction
returnValue = worksheetFunction1.VLookup(Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, Arg4)
But how do I use it? If I am right the returnValue should be my receipcolun I want to check if it is already in my receiptbook am I right?
so I should also make a second worksheetfunction for the .filldown right?
EDIT: Ok, first post AND in a wrong section >.< (I beg your pardon )
EDIT2: yeah, while reading me again it seems a bit confused, but my main question is why when I am cheking my receipts using the vb6 application I made which opens the 2 .csv file (1 with the list to check and the second with all the existing ones) and cheks for each of the new receipt if it is already in the receiptbook... just why does it takes so much longer than the macro my boss used to use?

I Have Two Questions About Visual Basic 6 And Flash (Actionscript)...
I am developing a program with visual basic 6 and flash/actionscript.
I also want the app to include a internal console window in one of the forms.
So I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone...if you don't mind...
Here is the first question...
I am developing the GUI entirely from flash 8 and I was wondering...how do you use TSetProperty properly in visual basic 6? The syntax I think for this is:
ShockwaveFlash1.TsetProperty "target", property, value/expression
I tried to do this in visual basic and I get "Method for 'tsetproperty' of object 'IShockwaveFlash' failed"
What does this mean and how I execute this properly and error free?
Second question...
Is there a way to make a embeded console window that will run from a form and respond to basic user input? For a long time I have been creating batch files with visual basic and running them from a temp directory. But my goal is to create a seamless intergration between dos and visual basic.
I hope you will be able to answer my questions.
Thanks.

Help: Beginning Visual Basic Student Has Some Questions...can Anyone Help Me Out?
Hey all, as the topic implies, I'm a student in a beginning Visual Basic class. For our end-of-the-semester project, we need to code a simple (though complex for our understanding level) program that shows we've gained an amount of knowledge from the course.
For my project I'd like to do a guitar tuner...A program that will play the sound of a guitar string being plucked with the click of a designated command button. I would have six buttons, each corresponding to a string on a guitar.
Here's my question: Is it relatively easy to embed sounds in a program and have them readily available to play at the click of a button? If it invovles a lot of complex code not fit for a beginner I'll have to think of something else to do, but if it's simple enough I'd love to tackle it.
Any help would be appreciated!

Random Questions In Visual Basic From A Database
Hello,
Some of you may remember me from the other day. I have decided I would like to try the approach of loading the questions for my "Who Wants To Be A Millioniaire" game from a database. I get the basics of creating a databse in Visual Basic like
1) Choose Add-Inns -> Visual Data Manager
2) Choose File -> New
3)Choose Microsoft Access -> Version 7.0MDB
4) For the name of the database I put "Millioniaire"
5) Then I clicked Add Field Button
Now I am not exactly sure on what to do? I know I need to add a table and I know how to do that, my question is how do I set up my table? How do I make it so it can check to see if the answers are correct and also I am in need of some help with the Visual Basic coding to import information from a database.
As you can probably tell I am not to fermilliar with databases
I thank you for any help you can assist me with!
Regards,
Mario
Visual Source Safe..and Some Basic Questions
Hi there, pardon my ignorance but what is Visual source safe used for? What happens when i say yes to Visual source safe when it asks if i want my project to be source safe? Also, when i try and save my current project under a different name, and i change the code and form layout of the current project, both projects have the same changes made to them.
In this way, how can i make changes without affecting the other because i would like to test differnt things on the second project without altering the first one.
Lastly, why is there an error message at the end when i try to package my program. The error message is "Make sure that you have access to the drive...."
Thank you.
Yours Sincerely,
Dexton
Two Newbie Questions: Shortcut Parameters + Visual Basic With Databases
Hello,
Im new to this forums so im a newbie.
Im having problems, Is there any way to use parameters with Visual basic programs?
Like shortcuts?
like:
"C:myprog.exe" /Hey
Is there any way to get this information? Because it could be useful to automate some tasks.
another question is:
Where is the best place to learn about Visual basic + Databases, because ive read alot. And none have worked for me (not at all)* and my book only helps me with spreadsheet databases...
I need to be able to very quickly check against the database using a loop or somthing like that.
Like a powerful quick search, when it finds somthing i dont want it to stop..just remember the collum/field/table where it found it on.
i just need a starting point so i can accomplish this. The things ive read are all based on ACCESS databases, This is what i like and should be quick + easy for me
Thanks!
*The examples dont seem to work right on my PC (errors and such)

Visual Basic Items Removed From Visual Basic.NET
A while ago (maybe up to a year) I had found a web page (probably a Microsoft MVP's home age) that had a list of about 100 things that were removed from Visual Basic in the transition to Visual Basic.NET. As it is, I would like to look at that again, but I can't seem to find it on my computer. Does anyone remember this page and/or have a copy of the link or the file that was on it. It has particular things like Debug.Print is no longer valid and MsgBox function is not supported. I've look on Microsoft's website and found a great deal of information about implementation difference, but I can't seem to locate this particular piece. If anyone could help I would appreciate it very much.
Thanks in Advnance

What Are Advantages Of Visual Basic .net Over Visual Basic 6.0?
I am thinking of installing Visual Basic.net (standard version) in place of Visual Basic 6.0. I dont know what are the disadvantages of it and I am hesitating to do that. I thought that I should ask the forum before making this decisions.
Would someone help me to know the followings.
1. If I install VB.net, and if I do programming in VB.net, will I be able to run it in Visual Basic 6.0?
2. Can I do everything that I do in Visual Basic 6 in Visual Basic .net?
3. Are there things that I can do in Visual Basic . net which can not be done in Visual Basic 6.0?
4. Would you recommend Visual Basic.net in place of Visual Basic 6.0?
Thanks in advance.

Basic Question About Excel Macros And Visual Basic
I have a macro in Excel that takes some input on data ranges and produces charts based on the input. I want to place those charts (a number of them are generated) at a certain point in my excel worksheet. I know I can nudge it over by a certain amount but I can never tell where Excel will place them so I would like to just say "hey chart, sit here". Being able to do that in relation to cells would be great. Also, I would like to know if there is any way to resize the chart without using the percent. Once again, in realtion to cells would be great. Thanks for your help.

Visual Basic Development && The Visual C++ Shared Objects
I having a really irritating problem. I'm developing an Add-in in Visual Basic... however, to do the development I'm doing, I require the "Visual C++ shared Objects" reference to be added to the project.
Here in lies the problem. I also need the VB command left [as in left string copy - ie. left("aaaaa", 2)] The only problem is that by adding the "Visual C++ shared Objects" reference, the LEFT command is overridden with the C++ version which returns a long (or something like that).
In the References window, I've already set "Visual C++ shared Objects" to the lowest possible priority... is there anyway to get around this arrangement?
Thanks in advance,

How To Access Visual FoxPro Data In Visual Basic

Dumb Question About Visual Basic / Visual Studio...
From someone who has been programming as long as I have, this has got to be a dumb (DUH!!!) question. But if I don't get it answered, I'm going to continue to run around in circles. The problem stems from what appears to be a simple name change, and the fact that I only upgrade my software infrastructure here every few years, so I miss what's going on.
VB6 appears to be the last (terminating) version of Visual Basic. There will be no VB7. But, clearly, the language itself is not being terminated -- just called something else, or is being "assimilated" (resistance is futile) or absorbed into a larger platform, losing its identity as a stand-alone programming environment.
How does Visual Studio relate to Visual Basic? Is the "next generation" version of Visual Basic now being called Visual Basic.NET? Is VB.NET part of Visual Studio? If I get Visual Studio, is VB.NET automatically part of that package? Or is Visual Studio one thing, and VB.NET something else entirely, ordered as two separate things? If I want to keep programming in VB (as a programming language/environment), do I now have to get Visual Studio instead?
Sorry to bother the more enlightened souls here with a DUH question -- but I gotta ask SOMEBODY...
Thanks. You folks have been a GREAT help here.
Most Basic Of Questions - How To Obtain Basic 6.3
Well I know this is going to sound really stupid, but here goes. I used to do some Basic coding in the very old days before VB (can you imagine a time like that?).
Since then I've been doing other things not related to programming, but now I have a need to sort out an application that uses VB 6.3 to merge various bits of Word and Excel.
I have Win XP and Office 2000 Professional on my PC, I know that there is a VB Editor within Excel, because it pops up to ask if I want to debug the application. But I can't see the full VB programme.
I presume that it is not included in Office 2000 Pro and is a separate programme that I have to buy? (Sorry, that I'm so out of touch). I also see that VB6 has been superseded by Studio and COM superseded by NET, but the application is writen using 6.3, so that's what I will have to use.
But where do I get it from?
