Dr WahabGoogling "VOIP in Java" PRODUCED 1,080,000 hits some of which are tutorials, and there are some specialised forums - may be some help to youFrom the sounds of the post, you are apparently a JAVA novice. I really don't THINK that VoIP is the first project you should tackle.

Is there anyway to popup a message with a batch script where the user has to click OK for the batch file to run?

I current have it so that it pops up a message and the user has to click OK and then ENTER in the command prompt but this is a problem because the command prompt gets hidden behind another active window. Any help is appreciated.

============================================================
msg %username% Click OK and then Enter to start backup.
pause
============================================================

Also, if you can tell me if the following script can be shortened or rewritten so it is closer to scripting standards, that woudl be great.

==========================================================
msg %username% Click OK and then Enter to start backing up your OUTLOOK Email

pause

if not exist "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\null" mkdir "c:\Documents and Settings\%

username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup"

if not exist "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Archive\null" mkdir "c:\Documents and

Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Archive"

xcopy "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current" "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My

Documents\Outlook Backup\Archive" /d/e/c/q/h/r/y

rmdir /S/Q "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current"

if not exist "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current\null" mkdir "c:\Documents and

Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current"

if "%date:~2,1%"=="/" set TODAYDATE=%date:~0,2%-%date:~3,2%-%date:~6,4%

mkdir "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current\%todaydate%"

taskkill /IM outlook.exe

ping -n 60 127.0.0.1>nul

xcopy "c:\documents and settings\%username%\local settings\application data\microsoft\outlook" "c:\Documents and Settings\%

for /f %%i in ('date /t') do (
if %%i==Fri if exist "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Current\**-**-****" rmdir /S/Q

"C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents\Outlook Backup\Archive\"
)
msg %username% The backup has completed. Click OK to close.
============================================================You could try using the msg command with the /time:xx and the /W switches. Used correctly you can eliminate the pause with it's additional interrupt to the console.

Batch files? Standards? You're KIDDING, right? Writing batch language has been an exercise in spaghetti code since 1980. If your code WORKS, don't mess with it.

8-)Thanks for the help...the "msg /W" works great.

Hi there,

I am stumped.

I am connecting to a database programatically using the data object on the form.

The Microsoft Jet database engine COULD not find the object . Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly. (Error 3011)

I receive the above error witht the FOLLOWING syntax:

datAppeal.DatabaseName = App.Path & "\esltdb.mdb"
OpenDatabase App.Path & ("\esltdb.mdb")
datAppeal.RecordSource = "Select * from APPEAL where PERSNO like " & nPersno & ""

I open this form from my main form and only want to display data relevant to the id number from the main form.

Please tell me where am I GOING wrong.

Regards
ChristoI would think you need an object variable that represents the database object that you want to open.

Code: [Select]
Set database = workspace.OpenDatabase (dbname, options, read-only, CONNECT)


Also you might check what App.Path RESOLVES to. Personally I tend to use ADO, write the code inline, and use the MSHFlexGrid to display the data.

Hope this helps. Thanks it worked

I want to create a batch file or somethink similar which when run will ask for the computer name then open a file on that computer.

I have wrote the following which asks for you to input the computer name


@echo off
set /p dwd=Type the computer name:

I then want the result of what was TYPED to be put in the following. where the dwd number would be what they typed

\\Dwd1a595\C$\WINNT\Version.bmp

is this possibleI THINK this was already ANSWERED in the DOS section:

\\Dwd%dwd%\c$\WINNT\Version.bmp

Please don't duplicate your POSTS. It only creates confusion.

Im USING C++ Visual Studios 2005 express edition.
Im having a problem with this code:

float quad1(float a, float b, float c)

{

float d;

float e;

d=Math.SQRT(b*b-4*a*c);

e=(-b+d)/(2*a);

return e;

}

And here is the error:

c:\documents and settings\zach williamson\my documents\visual studio 2005\projects\workplace\workplace\workplace.cpp(42) : error C2065: 'Math' : undeclared identifier

c:\documents and settings\zach williamson\my documents\visual studio 2005\projects\workplace\workplace\workplace.cpp(42) : error C2228: left of '.Sqrt' must have class/struct/union

type is ''unknown-type''

Am I not including a library?I'm not a C++ programmer, but it doesn't appear you have a library reference. The following code will compile, whether it produces the right result is another matter.

Code: [SELECT][highlight]#include "math.h"[/highlight]

float quad1(float a, float b, float c)
{
float d;
float e;
[highlight]d=sqrt(b*b-4*a*c);[/highlight]
e=(-b+d)/(2*a);
return e;
}

I did find out that there is a difference between sqrt and Sqrt. I have no idea if this is significant to your program. 8-)Aha! So there is a math library. Thank you so much!

hi,

i downloaded a utility from this SITE called "bat2exe.com" which converts .bat files to .com so that the source code is unreadable.

but there is a problem with the utility. it does not open any files.

i want it to open a .TXT file in the same FOLDER as the .com file but it just shows the message "bad COMMAND or file name"

please help me
Thanks.

this is what i had typed


@echo off
j:\readme.txt
@pause

(the j: is my HD DRIVE.)readme.txt is not an executable file. Try: edit j:\readme.txt

Bat2exe has many known problems. It does not handle IF statements very well and is totally clueless with FOR statements.

Hope this helps.

I suppose this isnt really PROGRAMMING PUT it's the nearest topic.

I cant find out how to output data (e.g. BIRD) that is within several columns of one EXCEL datasheet into a new datasheet.

The thing is that BIRD isnt always in one of the 9 columns, so I only want the rows pasted that actually have the word within the row's nine columns.

This is what I think it should be like (similar):
CODE: [Select]=IF('ALL CUSTOMERS'!J2:R1216>=BIRD;"BIRD FOUND";"")

This should mean that if in my Excel sheet "All customers" within the nine columns (J-R) the word BIRD is found, then the rows with BIRD FOUND should be pasted on my fresh sheet, otherwise blank.

Hi,

is there a function to send a mail in C++ BUILDER?

Kind Regards,
RowinThis component (not sure if it's free) may be helpful:

Send Mail

There is also an C++ Builder action CALLED Tsendmail. Try GOOGLE for more details on that.

Good LUCK. 8-)

How do I get RID of the "Gateway" logo that appears as my computer boots? I would really like to PUT something eles there if I knew how. Suprisingly I found a lot of websites for CHANGING your logo.
Just search for "computer startup logo" in any search engine.

Beware: You have to change your SYSTEM BIOS code and then re-flash the BIOS. The slightest mistake will TURN your computer into an expensive paperweight.

Good luck.

I've just finished mastering DOS commands and programming to the point where I make commands appear at will. Now, I want to further my education of programming with Visual Basic, to learn the ropes. HOWEVER, I STARTED with Visual Basic .NET 2003, and all the books I have assume I know Visual Basic 6.0! Where can I go to learn the basic fundamentals uf programming? (Currently, most of the book's code looks like gibberish.)I'm not sure that anybody masters the CMD processor commands, ESPECIALLY since it changes with every version of Windows. Be that as it may, VBScript might be good next step. Scripting offers objects, methods and properties but still maintains a text file environment run under an INTERPRETER as opposed to full scale compiling and linking.

You might want to CONSIDER rewriting your batch files as scripts. It's not as easy as it appears. A site that can help you with tools, examples and hints can be found at: Windows Script

Good luck. Hey, I know I'm no expert compared to you, but I have done everything my current version (5.1) gives me. I guess I got ahead of myself. I just mean I'm "good" at it. That IS a good idea, by the way. I'll do that.

Hello
am a JS programmer
i am strugelling in creating a SCRIPT that will make my website background same as the USER window background

is it possible by JS ?
can you please tell me how if possible in and PROGRAMMING language so that i will SET the background directly the the user PC as my site looks like DESKTOP look

Hi,
I need a bit of help with a complex batch file i am TRYING to create on Windows 2000 (and hopefully it will work on XP as well...but that's an ideal, not a requirement)

Basically i have a Jscript i want to convert to a batch file to calculate the date from the last defined day of the last 7 days. I will paste the Jscript info at the end of the post for you to get a better understanding of what i am trying to do.

For eg the script will: get date of last Monday (or other days), show in format DDMMYY or YYMMDD or even MMDDYYYY (must be able to be adapted for each situation) and then use that calculation as part of a command.

I am using wget (and other programs) to download files on a daily basis that have the date as part of their file name. So i need the date of the day i specfy to be included in that command. For eg: http://www.somesite.com/files/file290606.ext

However i may need to download files dated on Monday only made available later in the week. So for eg today might be 29/06/06 (or any date up to 7 days past the file date) but i need a file from Monday which might be 260606.
* Please note I cannot calculate from "X" days ago as the day i download the files will vary.

Here is the Jscript i have been using which should help you understand what i am talking about:


Quote

function getDateOfLastWeekday(weekday){
var date=new Date() // Get current date
var difference=0 // Set the difference between the date we want and today
if(date.getDay()<weekday){ // Has the desired weekday passed?
difference=7-(weekday-date.getDay()) // Yes, figure out how many days ago that that weekday occurred.
}
else{
difference=date.getDay()-weekday // No, figure out in how many days it will occur.
}
new_date=new Date(date.getTime()-difference*86400000) // Make a new date by removing 86400000 milliseconds for each day from today's date.
new_year=new_date.getYear().toString().substring() // Get the year, convert to string and remove first two numbers
new_month=new String((new_date.getMonth()+1)) // Get the month, convert to string
if(new_month.length==1){new_month="0"+new_month} // Prepend a 0 if neccessary
new_day=new_date.getDate().toString() // Get the day, convert to string
if(new_day.length==1){new_day="0"+new_day} // Prepend a 0 if neccessary
return new_year+new_month+new_day // Smack it all together in one big string and send it back to whoever asked!
}

var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
Shell.Run("http://www.somesite.com/files/file"+getDateOfLastWeekday(6)+".ext");

// It takes an integer between 0 and 6 as an argument (above 6 is accepted but might give incorrect results).
// 0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, ..., and 6 is Saturday.
// It returns the date of the previous weekday that matches the argument in the form of ddmmyy.

// So you could do:
// Shell.Run("mms://somewebsite/"+getDateOfLastWeekday(3)+".wmv");

Thanks for all the work you have done Dilbert. It's much appreciated.

I tested the script and it came back with :A week ago, it was day 31 of May, 2006."
I'm in Australia so the date today is Thursday 06/07/2006.

A week ago, it was day 28 of Jun, 2006.

Hi

Is there a way to check the value of a statement that RETURNS a select query? Here is the one line of code that I am talking about:
Return "Select a.CASE_NO_ID , a.SURNM_X, b.APP_INDEX_ID, b.VRDCT_I From WORK_OBJ a, APLCN b where (a.CASE_NO_ID = b.CASE_NO_ID) and (a.CASE_NO_ID = '" & CaseNumber & "') and (a.CHNGE_DATE_TIME_D >= '" & StartDate & "' and a.CHNGE_DATE_TIME_D <= '" & EndDate & "') "

I PASS this value to another function which populates a datagrid.
I am using ASP.NEt and VB.net.
I need to see if the above value is empty or null. That is, if there are no ENTRIES in the DB that match the select statement criteria, and thus is null. Currently if its null the program breaks.

Not REALLY enough information to go on, but if you are using an OleDbDataAdapter and have defined a datatable as the source for the GRID, you can use the datatable properties rows.count to check if you returned any records.

Good luck. 8-)

Hello everyone and how are all of you?
Freinds actually I just STARTED learning JAVA language. I want to know that can we use Java for advanced network programing (also include hardware programing), virus programing, security programing, interactive programiing? I need this information becasue I am planing to take Java as professional language.
I shall be very thankfull to you.
Do take care of you and others and be happy.
Bye...
DrWahab
Well, yeah, I guess you could. The software on the tills I use at work are coded in Java, and are all linked to a big database in Hemel Hempstead; there's your network PROGRAMMING for starters.

If you are planning a career in this, you may be as well to learn a BIT of C as well - this is the language that Java (and most other programming languages, come to think about it) is based on. It should be pretty easy to pick up if you know your Java. You'll avoid C LIKE the plague generally, but for lower level tinkering or for speed-critical apps it's something pretty handy to know.yeah you could use java for programming.But c++ is better if u ask me.

Hi,

Ive created a datagrid completely programatically. however Im having trouble in CREATING a way fro the user to select a row when the page is viewed.

the datagrid itself diplays CONTACT information. the Database itself hold many fields for a particular contact. I only wish to display a couple of these, but then when the user selects a row they wil be displayed all the relavent contact info about that user.

Any Suggestions?

}hi,

how exactly do you want the user to select the row? Meaning the user clicks on a row and then you go to a new page where the user can edit the row and perform some kind of a database update on the data?

asp.net 2.0 has a built-in control for this, or are you using asp.net 1.1?Use the "Property Builder" link under the datagrids properties.
Go to the "Columns" option. Uder "Text" enter 'Select'. Under "Command Name" enter 'Select'. Under "Button Type" select LinkButton. The select Column must be bound

You can select any row from the datagrid and it will be displayed as the highligted row in the grid.

The HIGHLIGHT row event is called SelectedIndexChanged event. The event is called when the select column is clicked. The select column can be added to the datagrid using the property builder explained above.

// This event is fired when the Select is clicked
private void Select_DataGrid(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// prints the value of the first cell in the DataGrid
Label2.Text += myDataGrid.SelectedItem.Cells[0].Text;
}

I work for a company where users do not read or indeed follow any instructions they are given.
So they don't know how to add printers which are easily available on the network, through the printer wizard or using start - run - \\servername\printershare
I now need to create a bat or exe file that we can put on their desktops, that enables them to INSTALL any printer the dummy WAY
basicly I need a bat or exe file that includes user input. All our printers are on one server , all they would need to do is to enter the printer number they WANT to print to,once they have managed to open the file on the desktop that is ) has anyone any idea how I would go about that?I'm guessing this would be a start:??
Code: [Select]@echo off
set /p pn=Type the printer number you WISH to print to:There should be someone able to finish that off for you!!! You would get more response if you posted this in the "MICROSOFT Dos" section!

I have created a batch command that RUNS everytime a user signs up in a terminal server, it maps DRIVES and calls an HTML file. The problem I am having is that once the batch file ends, the icons on the desktop are not being refreshed, the user has to manually press F5. Is there a way to refresh the desktop with a command rather than having the user press F5?

Thanks,

JackieFirst, I would SUGGEST that you use scripts instead of batch files for this. Scripts are significantly more powerful than batch files, especially inside the Windows environment. In a SCRIPT you could send the F5 keystroke or actually call the refresh method.

hi guys
is there a way to save your songs online so that you DONT lose them all when REFORMATING?More info subject:maybe required.....and thanks for posting!well here is a idea, Get yourself a Gmail account you get somthing like 2.5 gigs of inbox space.

then EMAIL then to your gmail.

I can send you a invite for it if you want!These are not answers to your query but do you have enough hard disk space to PARTITION your drive and move all your music files to a second partition - say partition D: - then you can format C: without OVERWRITING them? You could use Partition Magic or some other (maybe free) partitioning tool.

Other options include slaving a second hard drive and using that to store your precious tracks

As I said, not answers to your query but viable alternatives. If you find site which will freely store my files for a while please let me know.

Good luck

Does anyone know of a WAY to send a email with an Attachment to a Email account using VBScript and or batch file??

Code: [Select]
Dim objMail: Set objEmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
objEmail.From = "FromEmailAddr"
objEmail.To = "ToEmailAddr.com"
objEmail.Subject = "subject"
objEmail.Textbody = "Body"
objEmail.AddAttachment "FileToAttach"
objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "YourSMTPServerName"
objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25
objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Update
objEmail.Send

set objEmail = Nothing
WScript.Quit


You fill in the from and to email addresses. Fill in the file name to attach and your SMTP server name (get from your ISP). Do not change sendusing or smtpserverport settings.

Hope this helps.

I know the ASM code to read the IDE header, but I do not know how to add ASM code in VB

Might be easier to assemble your ASM module and make the call from your VB program. The linker should make all this possible. It's easier to combine object modules than source modules.

whats the difference between Visual C++ and C++??


i was at barns and noble yesterday looking for a C++ book and there were two kinds one for visual C++ and the other for just C++... whats the difference between them??

i got a book called ABSOLUTE c++ by Walter Savitch Second edition.

it was $100 BUCKS but oh well as long as i learn im kool with paying that much


TIA

unlovedwarriorDon't forget you can get tutorials for free online

Visual C++ means you can use it to create WINDOWS based applications with scroll bars and BUTTONS and things whereas non-visual C++ (as far as I know) can only be used to make console/DOSish style programs. Visual C++ can do both. But the chances are you will first learn to program console applications, before advancing onto visual ones which require you to know the language well. Therefore either book will be helpful. In this day and age it's unlikey the C++ one doesn't cover the visual aspects, unless it is a very old book, and you need to learn how to make console applications before visual ones, learn to walk before you are wrong.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong...but i can still make windows right with non visual?? like ERROR windows? and stuffHow am I supposed to know? You haven't told me what version of C++ you are using.the non visual for now..This is a console application of Chess I am making which has been made rather fuzy when converting to GIF, so you know what it LOOKS like. Unless your version of C++ is 20 years old it is 99% certain you are using Visual C++. When you start a new project you get a selection. Eg I chose to make a console application. Some of the other choices would have been for Visual applications, where you make programs that have buttons scroll bars text boxes and such. It depends which type of protect you want to make. If you're learning, chances are you will spend a lot of time making console applications so you can concentrate on learning the langauge without having to worry about the visual aspects of it yet.k i no the book is an 06..i also found a good tutorial on http://www.cplusplus.com

I want to RUN my Clipper programs on a stand alone PC using Win 2000 and be ABLE to print using HP PCL. The printer on this system is a HP 720c. My programs process OKAY but I can't get any output to the printer. The printer is the default printer and is CONNECTED via a parallel port.

I suceesfully run thiese programs under Win 98 and Win XP using a HP laserjet III printer and a HP 855Cse printer. I'm able to change fonts, control my spacing, etc with no problem on these printers and OS.

Any suggestions?Do you have your drivers updated?

Just wondering cos, I have just started using it, and think it is a great program!!!Ive Played with it a bit, its Fun and Easy to use , but not very Power FullWhat programming language do you think is powerful and fun?(ish)??Never heard of it until you brought it up. Seems geared toward gaming apps.

What programming language do you think is powerful and fun?(ish)??

All the programming languages are fairly powerful

I TRIED to recover Windows 98 on an old Toshiba 7202 - the error message said corrupt or missing himem.sys and a couple other toshiba specific files. I bought a recovery disc on-line and followed the instruction --- "format /s c:\" . know it only loads DOS and nothing ELSE.
Dir c:\
command.com 93,000 ( thats all)
Dir d:\
file not found.
Could i have lobotomized the ROM? What can i try next?You've lobotomized your hdd by using Format which wipes everything from the hdd partition. You should have used the command SYS C: to just transfer the DOS without formatting. Then you have loaded the DOS which will have installed three (maybe 4) files one of which is Command.com. The OTHERS are hidden files ( Attrib +H). If you wish to view those files use Dir /AH (see the Dir command for other parameters).

If you really have a second partition D: you MIGHT be able to recover files from that but looking at your Dir result I doubt it exists.

Good lucklobotomized the ROM whats that MEAN??

The following BATCH FILE works (with the real email addresses). I need to have it instead of check if there is a file named open_dt_events.txt, check to see if there is data in the file...the file is always GENERATED, I only need to send the email when there is data in the file.
I was thinking of checking if filesize was greater than 0 or something like that but I've had no luck so far and I've WASTED a whole morning on this.
Any help would be appreciated by this novice...
Thanks...

Is it possible to use MPLAYER inside a QBASIC application?
I tried with SHELL but it closes the application and retuns to WINDOW when opening WMPLAYER.I may be wrong but QBASIC is strictly DOS and WMP is Windows. There was (is?) a program CALLED DOSAMP that may be of some help.

A search on Google should GET you started.

Good luck.

I'm trying to setup different mIRC remote connection sripts, so I can make one FILE for each network that connects to different channels.

I found some info on the net where I have it setup to:


on *:START: {
server irc.gamesurge.net -i nick nick1 [emailprotected] me -j #test1,#TEST2
}


That will connect me to the server and join the test channels, but that network I can also /msg nickserve and identify myself. The problem is, I don't know how to include that /msg into the remote script so I can be identified before joining a channel.

My next solution was to create another section that says:

on 1:connect:{
/msg nickserv identify me
/join #test1
/join #test2
}

but when I load 2 remote connections into 1 mIRC window, it will perform those joins in both networks...


Any Ideas on how to load multiple remote connection scripts to
1. /msg nickserve different passwords pending server you connect to
2. make it so those join commands will not join #test1 and #Test2 on both networks? (I WANT to join SPECIFIC channels based upon which network I connect to...)

HI

Here is the problem:ACCESS to the path containing 'hash.web' is getting denied. I get this when TRYING to run my Asp.net and C#.det application. The following is the solution to it. But I dont know how to implement the solution. I dont know where to find the exclusion catalog.

Solutions:
• Keep Indexing Service Manual or Stop It
• In Indexing Service Preferences, Make C:/Winnt/Microsoft.NET to be excluded or placed in the exclusion catalog so that Indexing Service will not access this location

Also are there any other solution suggestions??

Hi

Problem solved. Just thought that i'd post the solution.

i GRANTED write PERMISSIONS to the asp worker account in this folder:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files
and now it works.

i know java and im learning c++.but i dont know where to write the script so i could do programs.help me
thxI saw your post in the DOS forum, but since you bring up Java and C++, I'm gonna guess you have a windows machine.

With any language all you really need is an editor (notepad or wordpad will do, some language processors come with an IDE), write your program, save the file and then point the compiler or intepreter to your file.

Perhaps if you could be more specific as to what you need to accomplish, we could be more helpful.

Let us know. ok IVE writen a simple program in WORD pad.But when i open the file it shows me the code not the CREATED program.
What language were you writing it in?
What did you name the file?
Is it supposed to be compiled or INTERPRETED? C++ is compiled, Visual Basic is compiled, VB Script is interpreted.I was writting in c++.The file was named hello world.rtf.Why didnt it work?



Because it can't be named with the rtf extension (That is the extension for wordpad (Rich Text Format) and you must have a C++ compiler to compile it before you can see it run. It will then be an exe or dll etc. as you specify.

Where can I get a compiler?Here's one.........

Do you have to download some sort of compiler to COMPILE logo scripts??(I'm sure you do).
If so, could someone PLS provide a link to download it??Go to the external LINKS section of the &GT;Wikipedia<. Plenty of leads there.

Here is the situation I have a program for managing snooker hall lights for billing and accounting, it was running on win98 2nd edition, the COMPUTER crashed after many years. I managed to make an image of the hard drive, and retrieved the folder with the program in it, reinstalled win98 2nd edition, on another comp, and dropped the folder into C: Drive, I got the prog running, installing all the MISSING files/dll it required. The way the program works is when you flick on a table light on, the program starts billing that table, at the END of each shift you used to be able to PRINT all the table totals, this is were my problem is, I cant register binprn32.dll, in the error log it reports it can’t find this dll. I have tried registering it manually using “regsvr32” and with a dll register tool but it still failed, the program is doing everything else but printing, when you attempt to print the printer flashes, so I think the info is getting there.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.Either you have to be in the directory where the DLL resides, or you can supply a path to the DLL on the command line when you register it..

Did you search for BINPRN32.DLL? Did you find it? It may not have made the migration on to the new machine.

the dll is in the system folder, i copied it over from the COPY i made of the original hard drive, i can find the path to the dll, but i get "failed to register"

ThanksYou can check out this site for any clues:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q249873/#XSLTH3128121123120121120120

One possibility is that the DLL is corrupt, but Microsoft can explain it better.

Good luck.

Hi,

i need to unregister a lot of dlls that are inside a specific folder.
I know that regsvr32 can do this... but just one by one.
So i'm wondering if it is possible to create a batch file that can give me all the file NAMES so i can unregister with regsvr32.

Any ideia?!
Tkx to all help

This little snippet illustrates one way to do this. Fix up the file names as necessary.

Code: [Select]
dir /b path\*.DLL > dir.txt
for /f "delims= " %%a in (path\dir.txt) do (regsvr32 -U %%a)
del dir.txt


Hope this helps. Helped a lot Thank You!

Can you explain me what is that STUFF of "delims= "?
No problem. delims= is used to list the character delimiters of the incoming data. In this case a space. Generally it's used in conjunction with the tokens= parameter which allocates the number of variables available to the FOR.

Clear as mud, right?

For the Microsoft explanation, type for /? at any command prompt.By the way...

It's possible to run this batch file remotely?
I can ACCESS the file and run it on other machine... but i want to run on that particular machine accessing by other one.

Confused?

I live my life in state of confusion. Of course I'm confused

ok, ive got My SQL SERVER 2005, ive installed it to my programs list

what i want to do is link the server to this MMORPG game im creating but when i try to import the database server it says server cannot be found

im trying to do it in front page

when i clicked on import, i went to options then clicked browse(or something similar) i went to 'New Network Place' and put the localion of the s=database server which for me WOULD be

http://My SQL Server 2005/logon

then it said connectig to server, then after a while it said server could not be found

anyone could give me some help i would appreciate it (if you can UNDERSTAND what im trying to say)

THANKSYOU're trying to use a web protocol to ACCESS MySQL. But it's not a web server; it's a database server. If you need a web interface, you'll first need a PHP-enabled web server (IIS is okay, if you have it, but I'd recommend Apache, which is free), then you could install phpMyAdmin. PHP is free and readily available.

Right now our thinking is to have a webpage for client to input data, and send the data back to the server, which is using linux.

The PROCESSING data part is writing in C and our NEXT step is to try to connect these two components.

But I am not sure how that could be DONE, any suggestions?

Thank you so much.The most OBVIOUS solution is to use a server-side web scripting language, such as PHP. Does this involve database interaction?

Learning PHP would be a cinch for anyone with a C background.

???I cant find text on creating a beep command.
Im tring to do a program for a class at school. it ask to add a beep to one of the processes but I dont know how to create a beepAlt+007 seems to be the answer. Go here http://www.jpsdomain.org/windows/winshell.html and scroll down to "Simple Utilities"

Good luck

thanks ill try that right now so i can download my programNot good, not good; that makes every KEY you hit beep,
I need it to only beep once when it's time for inputnow i need to know how to make it stop!Please post your scriptThe beep quit when I shut down. I uploaded my script without the beep, the second one on there works, the Ctel ^ G. just havent gotten far enough to know how to add Ctrl and Alt to scrips yet. But im stll learning. I did get credit for trying to find a working solution. Thanks for the help.What the instruction means is that at the point where you want a beep you hold down the ALT key then type 007 on the numeric pad to the right of your keyboard then release the Alt key. Before doing this you must hold down CTRL and hit the "p" key to indicate that the following CHARACTER is a "special", release the Ctrl key after typing p. This will put some sort of special character in your script depending on what OS you are using. I tried it in a straight .bat file created using Edit and it works in Win.98se and XP Home.

The sequence could be like this:

CLS
(hold down Ctrl and hit p then release Ctrl)
(hold down ALT and type 007 on the numeric pad then release Alt)
(a special character will be seen here)
DIR C:

On execution a beep will be produced and a directory listing will follow.

Hope this makes sense to you.This help me UNDERSTAND how to put a special key into a script. I am Taking UNIX/Linux networking this summer.

All last year we were in Windows 2000 sever, and in the fall I will be taking win xp 2003.

So any thing I learn will help me.

I started with dos v.1.22 back in the early eighties, everything was command line then so I am enjoying Linux.
Thanks again.

i need ONE with the ODDS of winning.

anyone KNOW where to get one?Are you able to program in PHP yourself? If you make a start on the script, I can offer suggestions. Do you simply want a function that returns the number and the colour? Or one that handles lpacing bets, ETC?Quote

Are you able to program in PHP yourself? If you make a start on the script, I can offer suggestions. Do you simply want a function that returns the number and the colour? Or one that handles lpacing bets, etc?

Okay, well that's a pretty straightforward script. Can you answer my first question?

ok is there a way to make a program that will restore your internet settings back to default? like could you do it in C++ or vbscript or something??

TIA

unlovedwarriordon't know whether it will work, think you could do is to EXPORT the internet settings from the registry and then import back everytime you START the COMP (via batch ?) , or double click on the .reg file
I think the registry key for internet settings is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\
anyway, have to test it out first ..ok
thanks ill try that when i have time

I'm using a list BOX to open queries. It is working just fine but now I need to add reports. How do I adapt the following code to accommodate queries and reports? Thanks, in ADVANCE, for any help.

Dim DocName As String

DocName = Me!ReportsList.Column (0)
'Used to TELL which report it is.
QueryName = ReportsList.Column (2)
DoCmd.OpenQuery DocName

Exit Sub
End SubI take it the Me!ReportsList is the list box object?

and this list box has a row SOURCE of?

Are you planning on putting queries and reports in the same list box? If so you are going to have to know the object type and do an "if" or "case" statement based on the type.

DoCmd.OpenQuery DocName
or
DoCmd.OpenReport DocName

how would i get a batch file to start when a user LOGS in??Try opening the startup folder (Start==>Startup) and create a shortcut to your batch file.

Keep in mind that batch files require the command processor to run and can create unanticipated problems during startup.

8-)like what??Hard to say. With no knowledge on your batch file, would not any problem would be unanticipated?

An real world example might be your batch file runs a report against a file on a network share before the share has been mapped.

Just make sure that the required resources for your batch file will be available during the startup.

8-)the batch file i WANT to autostart is a timed shutdown for the computer...Timed how?

Elapsed time from the startup? EX. Computer runs 7 hours then shuts down.

Scheduled time? ex. Computer shuts down at 6PM.

For the first one I would write a windows script as DATES and times are better handled with script than with batch code.

For the second one, I would use the task scheduler and simply schedule the shutdown.

8-)

windows script??

umm.. LET me turn to wise old king google 8-)

I PURCHASED a paint by number program and I need to add my own color palette. I created the color palette in a different program and now when I save the palette and change the file extension to the one the paint by number uses, I get the following message: "An attempt was made to access an unnamed file past its end." Can someone help me get this color palette into this program? PLEASE!!! What paint by number program and what program created the color palette? Try PUTTING your message into a search ENGINE. I got 129,000 possibilities with Google.

Can the paint program create it's own palette? In general, the file extension indicates the file format, but changing the extension does not change the physical format of the file. (ie: you cannot change a text file into a Word doc simply by changing the extension)

Good luck.

Win XP Home - VB 4.

Just STARTING to learn VB and have a problem with foreground color in a text box. When viewing the form the text is WHITE (the background color SETS ok) but regardless of which forecolor I select in Properties the color does not change. When the prog is Run the forecolor changes to something like a buff color. The color hex number in the forecolor selection box remains as it was set by me.

What am I doing wrong please :-?How many colors is windows set to display? Right click the desktop, then click the settings tab and check the values.

VB will attempt to do what is programmed. I suspect the problem is further up the food chain when it comes time to display the control.

Let us KNOW. 8-)

Thanks Sidewinder.

R.clicked desktop then clicked Properties>Settings. This shows the Screen Resolution and Color Quality but no number of colors. R.clicked the VB shortcut and set the prog to run in Win 98 compatibility mode with 256 colors without that making any difference.

Any other suggestions please :-?The 256 colors was going to be my next suggestion.

Is this the only control on the form with this problem? If so, try DELETING the control and recreating it; you may have inadvertantly clicked a property that contradicts a foreground color setting. (enabled for instance).

I'm pretty much out of ideas. Never seen this problem before and Google is fairly quiet on this subject.

Good luck. 8-)
Thanks again. I went right back to the beginning and 'rebuilt' the form and still have the same problem. I'm using the Sams Publishing 'Teach Yourself VB.4 in 21 Days', this is day 8 and I haven't got past Day 2 in the book [smiley=grin.gif] But then the book doesn't say which 21 days LOL

I'll Google for a specialised VB forum and post there.

Thanks again.

H..Problem caused by own stupidity. Believed was changing the TextBox but the Form Properties were in view.

Also the Properties instructions for the TextBox make no mention of making Enabled = True. They do mention making MultiLine=True but making this False changes nothing. Perhaps a bit of confusion there as well as here.

Thanks

H...
