[Seach Within Textbox Problems]

Cyber,

Your "reversestring" function is clever, but I think not necessary. Try the InStrRev function, it was made to search backwards. try this.....

Public Sub FindNext(ByVal Value, ByVal Direction, ByVal CaseSensative)
        If Value IsNot Nothing Then ' Only run if Search String is not Null
            ' Set The CaseSensative to the appropriate Search Method
            If CaseSensative = False Then
                CaseSensative = CompareMethod.Text
            Else
                CaseSensative = CompareMethod.Binary
            End If

            ' Set Search Start Location Based on Selection Length
            Dim varPosition As Integer = frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionStart + frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionLength

            ' Search for the Text In the specified Direction from the text cursor
            Dim lengthPosition As Long ' Declare Search Result Variable

            If Direction = "Down" Then
                lengthPosition = InStr(varPosition + 1, frmNotepad.txtNotepad.Text, Value, CaseSensative) 'Find Value After Caret varPosition
            Else
                If frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionStart > 0 Then
                    lengthPosition = InStrRev(frmNotepad.txtNotepad.Text, Value, frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionStart, CaseSensative) 'Find Value After Caret varPosition
                End If
            End If

            ' Select Searched Text
            If lengthPosition > 0 Then
                frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionStart = lengthPosition - 1 ' Move Caret to Start of Text
                frmNotepad.txtNotepad.SelectionLength = Len(Value) ' Set Length of Selection to the Search String
            Else
                MsgBox("Cannot find " + Chr(34) + varFind + Chr(34), MsgBoxStyle.Information) ' Display Message if no more Instances of Search String in Specified Direction or None at all
            End If
            CaretRefresh(frmNotepad.txtNotepad) ' Scroll txtNotepad to Caret Position
            SetCharacterPosition() ' Update Line / Character in Status Bar
        End If
    End Sub

[I Have a Small Request]

ok its been a month and i was wondering if anyone would be able todo this for me. i know its not to difficult todo but i have no programming skills unfortunately.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

If this is easy please tell how you believe it can be done. You can reshack the dll and change the icon pictures, but then they will perform wrong function when clicked. The dll is compiled and no source available, so can't recode it. Unless I am missing something it's not that easy.

[Ethernet Switch]

no, no central computer. like ring said, connect broadband modem to switch uplink, pc's to other switch ports. as long as switch is powered any or all computers can be on or off.

[Ethernet Switch]

If I understand the question correctly, answer is yes... you can share internet connection with switch. Like you say, only one can transmit at a time on hub, switch is full duplex, more like smart bridge than hub.

[Seach Within Textbox Problems]

Your editor looks just as you described you would make it... clean, simple and functional. I like it.

Problem #1. Cursor position starts at 0 but instr() function would consider that place in string to be 1. Just add 1 to varPosition in this function and should work OK

If Direction = "Down" Then
    lengthPosition = InStr(varPosition + 1, frmNotepad.txtNotepad.Text, Value, CaseSensative) 'Find Value After Caret varPosition
Else
   .....

I try to take a look at looparound problem tomorrow.

[Best compression tool]

I love freeware and IZArc does everything I need. Handles RAR, 7z, ACE plus every other format you can think of. Makes nice self-extractors too.

[I am patriotman68]

Hi patriotman,

Thank You. Don't know what else to say except thank you again and welcome to the forum!

[Seach Within Textbox Problems]

Hi Cyber,

Sent you a PM a week or so ago asking how this was going. Hopefully you just overlooked it and didn't blow me off.

If you would like me to try to debug, zip your code and mail to dettest@comcast.net. Can't really tell what is going on from the snippet you posted because referenced functions are not included.

[How to remove bg color on shortcuts?]

Not sure if 2k3 is same as in XP, but in XP you would go to my computer/ properties / advanced/ performance / visual effects and check "Use drop shadows for icons on desktop"

hope that helps, I dont have 2k3.

Has no effect on speed, just a different way of passing connection info that makes deployment easier.

The best way to silence critics is to impress them, not mad rad faces. Short of that ignore them. You should consider editing your post before you find you are on same dead end street again.

[unattended installs]

I heard that it is. I have tried a few times but will keep on trying. Practice makes perfect right? What is the dif between a cmd. and batch. I can convert a txt to both?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Basically they are the same, except win9x does not support .cmd

It is mainly a naming convention then. Scripts that use NT-Only functions should be named .cmd, while scripts that can also run on win 9x should be named .bat.

That's pretty cool (even though this is English forum). Bet it's not too long before browsers are sporting universal translators.

[[VB] getting files from ftp]

try opening for input with lock.

Open "c:\test.txt" for input lock Read as #1

and trap the error 70 that occurs if file is already open.

if it opens without error, close it and do your transfer.

[[VB] DSN's]

Rather than creating a dsn, try using a dsnless connection.

You pass all connection info as as string in your code.

To create your connections, create a text file and name myconn.udl. Then in properties set all of the correct parameters and save it, then open in text editor to get the connection string that you will use in your code.

google "ado dsnless connection" for more info.

you could also set the connection to use the .udl file itself and include it in your install.

Thx SiMoN. I put Dux on for my nephews computer (9 and 12) They love 'em.

[Aurora - Part of The ABI Network]

The evil makers of aurora somehow evade the "adware" tag. maybe it is because they offer a uninstaller, even though they make it impossible to find.

http://www.mypctuneup.com/

Aurora is "Nail.exe" BTW, if you want to remove it manually. After this run Hijackthis to find it's other crumbs.

also, this post really belongs Here, just for future reference.

I love every tune by The Offspring... like audio meth to me.

My fave of all time is Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Child. This with some good phones will blow your little mind, as Jimi would say.

or winsockxpfix?

[Unable to boot due to no pagefile. Help plz.]

I never tried regeditPE on win2k but it's worth a try.

You will need BartPE and RegeditPE.

Or BartPE and UBCD4Win, which includes regeditPE and lots more.

Unfortunately, making these disks is at least as much work as installing windows, probably more. And you need a working computer to make them. Be worth it in the long run though.
