VB Accessing C++ Api
Hello!
I am writing an application that uses an C++ API. Everything works just fine. The C++ API is connection to a Corba source and returns data to my VB app.
The problem is that when I try to run the applikation in Break mode VB always crashes when I push the stop button.
I can step through the code without problem, the problem is when I try to stop, to return to design mode.
Does anyone know a problem like this??
Thanks in advance

Accessing A CD Via MCI
Hi,
I've been trying to retrieve the identity of a CD currently in a CD-ROM drive, using:-
mciSendString "info cdaudio identity wait", strReturn, 64, 0
However, the problem is, I have 3 CD-ROM "devices", the first being a virtual one (which simply allows me to browse through CD image files), and 2 other CD-ROMs.
It appears that currently MCI is attempting to access the virtual drive (which has no file loaded) and returning an error. I can play CD audio from the other drives fine, however, so is there a way of telling MCI which drive I want it to access?

db.Open
rst.Open "table1", db, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
Now what code do I add to directly access ,say ,Row5 of table1?

Accessing WMP
Hello I am trying to create a music database program and I thought that a neat idea for the user would be that if they are connected to the internet they can retrieve the CD info.
I was pondering for the longest time how to do this to save the user from having to enter so much information about the disc and the number of songs. We all know that everyone pretty well has Windows Media Player and I thought if there was some way to access the dll so when the user has a CD in the drive it can scan that, find the CD info off the internet and add that to the GUI.
Any other idea's that I should think of or concepts to think about? I have no problem with the database part it's just trying to get the artist name, disc name and song list without the user entering that all in.
Thanks

Ok i have a big problem:

I don't know any C++.... If someone could help me how to declare the DLL calls in VB, i would be VERY thankfull...
I tried it with:
VB Code:

But it returns me an errorcode: 453: Can't find entry point typIsamCreate in Ramadb32.dll
...
Thanks for taking the time to answer me.
Accessing SAM
I tried to access the SAM file which is located in the WindowsNT system directory.
The exact path is C:WINNTsystem32config and the
filename is SAM.
When I try to access this file in any way e.g. using the
TYPE command in the command prompt, or using notepad
to read the file, I get an error message that this file
is used by another process and is not accessable.
I can't even copy it. I can only read its attributes.
The SAM file saves the passwords under WindowsNT.
I can't read the file alltough I'm the administrator.
Is there a way to gain access to SAM?

Accessing The Web In VB
Hi all,
I'm new here, and new to VB. Not my tool of choice (I miss my semi-colons ), and frankly, I'm having a hard time getting things to work the way I want.
My boss has asked me to parse a word file (office 2000) and examien all the URLs to see if any return a 404.
Well, I can grab all the urls easily enough (MS Word's collection of them is very handy). But I am not sure how to create or open a connection, or how to check the return on it.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks for your time,

Accessing DLL X From DLL Y
I'm trying to find a way that I can reference a DLL X from DLL Y. The problem that prevents the normal method, is that I cannot allow a reference to DLL Y in DLL X, and I have to use ASP code to pass the name of the DLL X.class to DLL Y.
The problems are this:
1) dim oDB as new stringVariable
where stringVariable contains the DLL X.class, but the
system tries to create oDB as "stringVariable"
2) How do I reference the other DLL (whose name is in
stringVariable) without creating a reference in the first DLL
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I'm not sure if this is possible, but any help would be apreciated.

MTS And Accessing COM
Hi all,
My question is based on already existing implementation that has Thread Manager component created in C++ outside MTS - why did they have to use one?... read next…
I have messages coming from MSMQSeries, accessing COM components in MTS. Can I have a multithreaded process running on the MTS, that picks-up the msgs from the Queue and manages a msg processing transaction for each msg concurrently
OR do I have to create a multithread Manager outside of MTS and have it pass a thread for each message to be processed in its own thread in MTS.

Accessing .mdb With UID And PWD?
Hi!
I am new to databases in VB.
The access XP i have on my laptop is set up to use a username and password at startup, because of other applications we use in the company. And, every new database i create with Access gets the same protected rights.
When i try to open such database from my VB6 project i get erros
telling me i do not have the rights to read the records.
I started trying with the "Data" control in VB, but someone told me that DAO is a much better "thing" to use, so i added reference to DAO 3.6. Still i have not figured out how to connect to the table i just created in Access.
I have upgraded VB6 with SP5.
Any comments that can guide me in the right direction are much
appretiated.
Thanks

Accessing VC Compiled DLL In VB6
I am trying to access some functions in a DLL created in VC. When I make the call to the function VB returns the error that it can't find the DLL. I've checked the spelling SEVERAL times. It's spelled correctly. I've also tried placing the DLL in the local folder where my VB APP is, in the Windows System folder and in the Windows System32 folder. The VC program finds the DLL in all these locations, but the VB program does not. I've even tried hard-coding the path to the DLL. Still no luck. Here's the declaration and call:
Declare Function ZMDOpenPort Lib "ZMDSerialComm.dll" Alias "OpenPort" (ByVal port As Long, baudRate As Long, parity As Long, stopBits As Long, nCOM As Long) As Long
Call ZMDOpenPort( MyPort, MyBaud, MyParity, MyStop, MyCom )
Accessing The Registry
Is there any one way that is more proper for accessing the registry than another using VB6?
Accessing 64-bit Registry Key From VB6 (32-bit App)
Greetings!
OK, here's the thing:
One of my application needs to get information from the registry key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMyAppWhatever
But, when I run the same application from a 64-bits machine, it seems that my application tries to look somewhere else:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMyAppWhatever
(This is the registry for 32-bits application).
Now, what I would like to know is if there's an API that exists that would allow my 32-bits application to access the 64-bits registry.
If none available for VB6, mayby in vb.Net? If not, any luck in C++?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Accessing .exe-files

Accessing An .INI File [VB6]
I am writting a program that needs to store information such as the Database Connection String and Application Folders in a Config.INI file. Now I know there are special methods to access .INI files (sections and so forth) instead of treating it as normal text file.
So assuming the file exists [Config.ini] and it would look like this:
[Connection String]
DatabaseConnectionString = BLA
[Folders]
ApplicationFolder = C:Root
How could I, in code, access these fields and be able to retrieve information like the Connection String and Application Folders.
Any clues? Help? Thanks,

Accessing TextFields In VBA
Hi I'm totally frustrated with my program. I created 160 TextBoxes in a word document. With the help of the good folks on this site, I finally found a way to access the textBoxes. I'm using the index of each control for access.
The problem is, the index is not equal to the name of the textbox. For example: I expected TextBox1 to have an index(1) and textbox2 to have index(2) and so on; it does not happen that way.
They are all out of wack. The indexing donot go in order. Does anyone have any ideas that may help me?

Accessing Checkbox Value

Accessing A Website From VBA
Hi,
I'm trying to read some HTML data from a website - specifically I have the captions from the "news" section on my website show on the main login form in an Access DB I use.
Basically, I've currently got the data coming from a text file - I'm storing the headlines in a textfile on a server all machines on my network can access - but we need to roll-out the application for users who don't have access to this shared drive - so I'll be posting the headlines/news on a secure section of a website they can all access.
The website is password protected - the url to get to the page would be something like this: http://www.mysite.com/app_news_headl...ryan&pass=pass - the script makes a session cookie when the user logs in.
Can anyone help me with this problem? IE point me in the general direction of a component or something that can do what I required? It's pretty simple to access as static HTML page via VB/VBA (I've done that in the past), but I've never been able to do it with the session-variable login kinda website..
BTW I can't change the site - it's "company policy" for everything to be in PHP, and I'm not going to be responsible for the site itself......
Cheers in advance.
