I have an application that processes Word documents. In order to work on the files, I run them through ConvertDoc to convert them to rich text files first. This is fine if I have 10,000 files to process, but when I want to do just one file it would be nice to be able to operate on the file...

Thank you. That information is great. What I need to do is remove an embedded graphic (a certification icon) from the file, and then save it as text or RTF. Is this possible from a macro? David

I have some word perfect files (200K+) that I need to open with a VB program and then make some formatting changes. Is there a control like the RICHTEXTBOX control that allows me to open a .wpd file and then operate on it? Or could there be a WORDPERFECT.Document object like the WORD.Document...

Johnwm, Thanks - that is what I was looking for to get the money thing taken care of. But for restricting the use of a software package - what data do you store for a license? And where do you store it? Do people use the NIC address? Computer Name? Do you store the data in the win.ini...

Thanks for all the advice. It turns out that we never could get the Access pages to work, and had to go back to just Front Page. It works now pretty well. Thanks! Faye and David

Hello, I am a consultant and have found that some software I have been using in my consulting business is sellable to a number of companies. (I wrote it, so there is no licensing issue for that.) I would like to have people download the softward from my website, but am not sure how to handle...

I have a data access page that reads a MS Access database. This works fine when the mdb file is on my c: drive, but when I put it on the webserver I get an error message: Microsoft Office Web Components could not open the database "\\website\test\fpdb\database.mdb". My connection string now...

Mastakilla, Thanks. That is exactly the information I need. Strange how hard it is to find just the right bit of information when you need it. David

Great idea. I had overlooked the obvious. Is there anyway, though, of referring to the fetched recordset? Would a recordset still be 'alive' on subsequent calls to the class?

I am just learning about vb 2005 and I really like a lot of it. I have a question about the proper use of a class. I have a need to look up a doctor's patient, and other information about the patient( visits, contacts, etc.) This is what I have so far: Public Class Patient Private...

Thank you! I was just trying too hard, I guess. FWIW, there is an extra ")" in the da = New SqlDataAdapter line. And it also required Imports System Imports System.Data Imports System.Data.SqlClient But that is exactly what I needed. Really appreciate the hand up. David

I am a VB 6.0 programmer and am trying to convert to VB2005. The app I am working on is one that extracts a comma delimited file from a query in SQL Server. I can do this easily in VB6, but am really struggling with how to do it in VB2005. I have gone through a few books and I know how to use...

Doh! Thanks! I can't believe it was that easy. David

I have been reading the online documentatin but have not been able to make this work. I have a table with a SEARCHNAME column which has uppercase lastname, firstname middlename, for example: "LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME M" "LANDRY, FILBERT W" I want to search based on partial last and first names...

Eman_2005, Thanks for your reply! The documents I am opening are mostly small (100K or so). The whole process only takes a couple of seconds so it is not long, unless you are processing 100,000 file or more. And every time I talk to them there are more files. Not it looks like maybe 200,000...

Hello! I have a large number of Word documents (> 100,000) that have to be processed. 1. Read the .doc file 2. Extract account number, name and date 3. convert to RTF format 4. write HL7 messages around the rtf component 5. write the file I have read the previous notes and tried using Word...

I have an application that reads an HL7 file, pulls the data from it, and then writes the data to another file, usually another HL7 file. This is like a very basic interface engine. I would like to design some classes, but am unclear how they should be designed. Would these be the right...

I am writing a program to read HL7 messages from a file and then load the data into a database. I have a program like this working in VB6, but want to use vb.net for this one. What are the classes I would use? The message (file)? Each segment in the message(MSH, EVN, PID,...)? What would the...

I have an application where I display a multiselect list box. That is fine, but now the user needs an additional field in the list box where they can type a number. The list box is variable in length, depending on the specific database it is run for. For example, the list box might be...

Ok, I got this far: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Create Table #tmp_table ( InsDeposit money, PatDeposit money, InsBucket0 money, InsBucket1 money, InsBucket2 money, InsBucket3 money, InsBucket4 money, PatBucket0 money, PatBucket1 money, PatBucket2 money...
