    - Collision Hi, I know this is becomming a cliche topic right now but I'm totaly new to collision dection. I know there is XNA... but that is for C# and I use the Visual Basic Express Edtion. So I basicly want to know who to get started with this. Some methodes I know are boundery box checking and sphere checking, colour based checking and pixel based checking and probably more... But I don't really know how I can link a boundery box or other to the VB Express Edition. So in general I need to know some basic stuff and start Thxn in progress Forcecast Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Why am I getting "End of statement expected"? Then in that case you have to store the old value somewhere to compare the current value either in a static variable as you exit the even or in a member variable. The IS keyword is used of reference types and a string is a value type and you use "=" for that. Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Read data from serial port .. ? In order to use the Windows API you first need to download and install the Windows Platform SDK and then adjust compiler settings as described in Getting Started. You would get the first error message if the compiler does not recognize HANDLE, which is a Windows API datatype. Once the Windows API is in place, I would first get the serial IO working and then and only then add the GUI. For the IO test I would make two Console applications, one that writes and another that reads. Writer: void main ( ) { initsio ( 0 ) ; unsigned char * data = "abcd\r\n" ; int nbytes = strlen ( data ) ; int errcode ; int lasterror ; writesio ( nbytes , data , &errcode , &lasterror ) ; // error checking is omitted } reader: (without error checking) void main ( ) { initsio ( 0 ) ; int ndatabytes = 0 ; char data [ 100 ] ; int errcode ; int lasterror ; int timeout = 100000 ; // 100 seconds while ( ndatabytes < 100 ) { readsio ( 1 , data+ndatabytes , &errcode , &lasterror , timeout ) ; if ( data [ ndatabytes ] == '\n' ) { break ; } ndatabytes++ ; } } First start the PC with the reader, then the PC with the writer. When the serial IO is working you will need to define the data transmissions protocol. This may be very simple or quite hard depending on, for example, if the computers are equals and both need to be able to send or receive, or if one computer is Master and the other is a Slave, whether data is binary or text, whether data volumes are small or huge, whether the two computers need to send and receive at the same time etc. You may also want to decouple the GUI from the data comms on each computer by making the GUI and data comms run as separate processes.This is easy to do with the Windows API, but I would not know if it is as easy with managed solutions in VC++ 2005.

    - Overwrite Picture Question Hi MLyons10, As I understand from your description, you would like to load a image file to a PictureBox and replace it with another one in the PictureBox at runtime. My suggestions just as follows: 1. Try to embed image resources into your project and get them at runtime. Sample codes as follows : Stream imgStream = null; Bitmap bmp = null; // get a reference to the current assembly Assembly a = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(); // get a list of resource names from the manifest string [] resNames = a.GetManifestResourceNames(); // populate the textbox with information about our resources // also look for images and put them in our arraylist txtInfo.Clear(); txtInfo.Text += String.Format("Found {0} resources\r\n", resNames.Length); txtInfo.Text += "----------\r\n"; foreach(string s in resNames) { txtInfo.Text += s + "\r\n"; if(s.EndsWith(".bmp")) { // attach to stream to the resource in the manifest imgStream = a.GetManifestResourceStream(s); if( !(null==imgStream) ) { // create a new bitmap from this stream and // add it to the arraylist bmp = Bitmap.FromStream( imgStream ) as Bitmap; if( !(null==bmp) ) { pics.Add( bmp ); } bmp = null; imgStream.Close(); imgStream = null; } } } Try to check out this article about " Embedding and Using Resources in C# " for details - http://www.devhood.com/tutorials/tutorial_details.aspx tutorial_id=75 2. Try to load an image to the PictureBox according the following samples and check if it is faster for you. public static void LoadImage(String path, PictureBox box) // Load image file <path> into picturebox <box> { Image image = Bitmap.FromFile(path); Bitmap thumb = new Bitmap(box.Width, box.Height); Graphics gr = Graphics.FromImage(thumb); gr.InterpolationMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.Low; gr.DrawImage(image, new Rectangle(0, 0, thumb.Width, thumb.Height)); box.Image = thumb; image.Dispose(); gr.Dispose(); } Check out this thread for details - http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=646583&SiteID=1 Hope this helps, Citizens on the earth Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Linking VB and C# solutions together...how?? That said, if your using VB Express and not Visual Studio, I'm not sure that mixed language solutions are supported in the VB Express product. So you could do a project reference as suggested by Nobugz I think you may have to upgrade to Visual Studio to support mixed language development within the same IDE, or use VB And C# Express products separately and build the project and then manually link to the DLL by adding a reference to the DLL rather than the project. If you want to use both languages in the same IDE, I'm sure you'll need to upgrade to Visual Studio Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Publish Prerequisite Problem jankonijnenberg, It seems that your project is not compiled in VB Express Edition. I guess you are programming in Visual Studio 2005 and your project need a packege from J#. In this situation, I suggest you to completely install your VS and download the SP1 for the IDE. Generally speaking, when you compile the project on the .NET Framework 2.0 successfully, the project will work fine. When publishing, the .NET Framework provide the ClickOnce technology for your deployment. You can either publish the project by localhost and install them in the web browser, or publish on your local disk with an exist path then click the setup file to install. I hope that your problem has been solved now. If you have any question, please reply me. Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions

    - Events for ComboBox thats inside a dataGridView Hi again... i'm facing a new problem, related to the same subject. I have two arrays: array<String ^> ^name; array<String ^> ^age; name[0] = "paul"; name[1] = "john"; age [0] = "30"; age[ 1] = "40"; And I have a dataGridView with multiple rows, and just two columns... on column 1 I have a comboBox with: this->option->Items->AddRange("name"); this->option->Items->AddRange("age"); on column2 i have an empty comboBox called res And deppending on the choise of the first comboBox on column 1, i need to add on the comboBox on column 2. Example : If i choose on comboBox thats on column1 the "name", on comboBox thats on column2 need to appear the choises "paul" and "john". If i choose "age", so the second comboBox need to be "30" and "40". My question, is how can add strings on other comboBoxes looking first on the previous comboBoxes (allways inside a dataGridView) I have this code already: [code] private : System::Void dataGridView1_CellEndEdit(System:: Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms:: DataGridViewCellEventArgs^ e) { if(e->ColumnIndex == 1) { String^ s =dataGridView1->CurrentRow->Cells[0]->Value->ToString(); option->Items->Clear(); int line = e->RowIndex; if (s== "name" ) { for ( int i=0;i<name->Length;i++) { //this->res->Items->AddRange(name[ i ]); /*this will write on all rows...i want to manipulate only the current row*/ } } else if (s== "age" ) { for ( int i=0;i<age->Length;i++) { // how can i write the age array on comboBox(column 2) } } } } [code] thanks very much for the help Tag: Visual Basic Express Edition Attributes of Any file Visual Studio Express Editions
