    Time limit for function execution

    still working on it, I got started with it, couldnt get it to work but I should take a bit more time, thing is that I'm not programming normally so I have to fit it in somehow:) will post again soon once I had more time to finish it and get it to work, assuming that I will succeed:)

    Time limit for function execution

    Thank you very much for this very elaborate explanation! Sorry that I respond a bit slow but I was stuck on some other things for a few days:) I will try this solution asap and post back if it indeed works, after reading this I do think that this would indeed solve the problem! cheers

    Time limit for function execution

    not sure what you mean now? I hope I didnt give you the impression that I didn't appreciate your post. What I meant was that I didn't really know how to get started with this type library you see? With an example of how to use such a library, also in relation to URLDownloadToFile, I think I...

    Time limit for function execution

    hmm thanks ok this is not straightforward indeed. Does someone have maybe an example of something that is comparable to what I need to implement here? Of course I'm not asking for someone to do my programming work but a rough example of something that is comparable to the code I would need...

    Time limit for function execution

    hmm ok thanks for that info, I didn't notice that. However, I'm afraid I'm also not sure how to implement these "callbacks". Would I be able to build this into my VBA routine? If so, how would I do this? Maybe someone has an example?

    Time limit for function execution

    thanks for the reply! Well, pressing ESC is not really an option as the VBA routine I'm using is going through a long worksheet with a list of web pages so the routine should be able to go through the whole list without human input, you see? Does everyone think it is impossible what I want...

    Time limit for function execution

    Hi all, I'm using the function "URLDownloadToFile" which I found here: http://www.ex-designz.net/apidetail.asp?api_id=498 This works well but in some very rare cases a web page cannot be downloaded and Excel simply hangs when executing the function for that web page. The function doesn't seem...

    set var in VB.NET and get the value in ASP

    I'm working on an application based on ASP but with underlying VB.NET code. I need to display some values in the ASP page that are in vars in the VB.NET code. Currently I'm doing this in the VB.NET code: Session.Item("Varname") = NameOfVbVar And this in the ASP page: value='<%=...

    FileUpload component does not work

    thanks I didn't include runat="server" for the input tag, that was the problem. The shorter way of getting the file is also very nice:) thanks again

    FileUpload component does not work

    Thanks, I try to use that collection but it does not (yet) work for me. I use this form on my page: <form id="Form2" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <INPUT id="Testfile" style="Z-INDEX: 107; LEFT: 344px; WIDTH: 240px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 104px; HEIGHT: 24px" type="file">...

    FileUpload component does not work

    Thanks, I understand that the only alternative would be to use a standard HTML element but my concern is how to handle the file upload after the form is submit. I need to open the file, read it line by line and based on the information on the file add or edit records in a mysql database. I...

    FileUpload component does not work

    Thank you for the fast response! This means that I can't use the FileUpload control at all I guess? But what would then be the best method to handle a file upload? Thanks!

    FileUpload component does not work

    Hi all, I'm new to ASP and I'm working on a project based on ASP and VB.NET. I want to use the FileUpload component on my website but I am not able to do so. I use Visual studio .NET 2003. The FileUpload component is not in my list of Web form components (design view). If I switch to...

    Change focus from other thread

    thank you for your suggestion for improving the procedure! I added Application.DoEvents() but this does not solve my problem, the textbox still does not get the focus.. Any other ideas?

    Change focus from other thread

    In my application I start an additional thread which continually checks the idle time of the system. If the system has been idle for more than 30 seconds, the thread navigates the application to the begin screen by calling the function "ToBegin()" of frmmain. This works fine except for the fact...
