I need to allow the user to drag & drop items from a list, possibly on ComboBox or other list, onto cells of their choice on a datagrid. Suggestions? I am working in VS2013. I will then need to be able to know the cell row and column for each item. Example "Test" is dropped on row 3, column 4. I...

Jebenson, Thanks! That was what I needed, got it working.

I need to be able to create additional PictureBox controls at runtime in VB.net script, there will be one PictureBox already on the form. I then need to position it relevant to the previous one. I will have the path and name for the image files and I know how to load that to the control. At...

Sorry, as this is VB script, not Visual Studio, I thought this was where I should be. I know what works in VB.Net in VS may not apply in the script.

I need to be able to create PictureBox controls at runtime in VB.net script, load an image to them from a file, position it relevant to the previous one, and size the PictureBox to fit the image, limiting it to the page size. I will have the path and name for the image file and know how to load...

Thanks Swi & dilettante!

I need to get specific data from an XML file into an array in VB6. What is the preferred way to do this? Parse through the file until I find what I need?

The code that Hypetia posted in thread222-1066475 works great, however I need to save the users 16 custom color selections to an array. I did not see where these colors are actually saved in the Registry, can someone point me in the right direction or offer any methods to get the current custom...

Thanks again for the help. Your suggestion for .MsgNoteText got me to the point that I could attach a single attachment, however multiple attachments failed. Then it dawned on me that I am using Base 0 and you are probably using Base 1, so I adjusted the code accordingly and multiple...

Thanks for taking the time to help. I had already reviewed the posting you suggested, indeed it provided the inspiration for the code you see in my listing for the attachments. The string array is initially dimensioned to 0, then is resized each time a file is added to the list to be included...

I need to add the ability to include attachments to email sent from a VB6 app via MAPI. The attachments paths & filenames are saved to an array previously. If I have a single attachment the routine errors out at .Send with error 32002 "Unspecified failure has occurred". If I have multiple...

I am sure this is an old topic, but I need to find a good tool to use to help develop HTML Help for my current VB6 application, with an eye towards being able to port it over to .NET in the near future. Recomendations?

I had already looked into what you suggested, however there were a few negatives also, such as no window could be moved over the "protected" one. I was able to rearrange my code and achived the needed result, though i am still not pleased with it. Thanks for the suggestion, I appreciate it and...

This is a simple problem but is causing me some grief. I have a subroutine in a module that displays a form with a progress bar, loads another form, then unloads the progress bar form. One problem is when this is all done, the main form that calls all of this vanishes behind any other open...

I am using Wise Windows Installer v6 Professional, and need to set the install folder for an application to a sub-folder under one that contains a specific INI file, or from a Registry value that contains the root folder that I want to install my application under. As an example if the folder...

Mike, Sorry if I have not been as through with info as I should have been. SQL Select that errors using Transform: SELECT DISTINCT PADR(ALLTRIM(TRANSFORM(gjdtl.gdacct)),20),gjdtl.gddesc FROM gjdtl ORDER BY gdacct DESC The error message just says "Function is not implemented". I like the...

OK, Things are working well at the moment. I was not able to get the Transform option to work, errored out. I used the exact same syntax as with STR, just replaced STR with TRANSFORM. Current Select: SELECT DISTINCT PADR(ALLTRIM(STR(gjdtl.gdacct)),20),gjdtl.gddesc FROM gjdtl ORDER BY gdacct...

Mike, Thanks for the help, your suggestions on the Order By will be useful. I did have the field used by Order By listed in the Select, just without explicitly listing the table name also. Testing showed it worked either way. I tracked the problem down to having tried to use the STR function...

JRB-Bldr, Thanks for the tips. You are correct, I am not trying to change the actual data, what I really am trying to do is to load a grid with data, and have it all be character type data in the grid. Perhaps there is a better way to do what I want, I am doing this so a user can use a filter...

I have a need to change the data type on specific fields when i open a Visual Foxpro DB in Visual Basic. I am using the following select string format: select distinct cast(numeric_field as Char(30)),another_field from database_table This errors out as unrecognized Visual Foxpro, where am I...
