    Speed of upload of a file to an ftp area - why slower than a manual upload?

    Hi all. I have a general query regarding uploading a file from within a VB.net program to an ftp area. On my computer, in a VB.net project I am developing, any file is uploaded quickly to a private ftp area to which the program has access. One of my customers has the same application and tried...

    Getting through the anti-virus or firewall to connect to on-line database

    I ran a tracert at the command prompt and got this reply from godaddy support: I attach the code I am using to upload a file to the existing godaddy ftp area. It works perfectly (and quickly) on my development machine but takes a long time on a customer's computer running the same code but...

    Getting through the anti-virus or firewall to connect to on-line database

    I have successfully used the connection string to access the MySQL database on my development machine since May 2016, and other customers in the UK and Italy have successfully connected for several months.

    Getting through the anti-virus or firewall to connect to on-line database

    Hi I have a VB.Net application which runs on the local machine and connects to an on-line MySQL database. What do I have to do to get the customer's computer to allow the program through the firewall (if that's the right expression) so it connects to the database? This customer uses Windows...

    How to stop Windows 10 from enlarging pre-sized forms

    Hi. I usually set my form size to slightly smaller than the customer's screen size, and often I have hidden non-visible groupboxes just below the bottom of the form. The customer slides the form up to the top of their screen and, if their physical screen size is bigger, Windows 10 will show the...

    Connecting to on-line MySQL database via Wordpress

    Hi. I have a MySQL database on-line hosted by godaddy. I have a VB.net application which connects to it fine - but directly to the MySQL database which means only certain IP addresses can connect to it. I have a travel agent customer who wants to connect to it from various computers in Europe...

    Using GenericUriParserOptions in a Net Compact Framework 3.5 project

    Hi. I have a handheld terminal on Windows CE6.0 Net CF3.5, and need to send urls to a web server without letting it include the (buggy) extra backslash you get when you convert the url to %5C and %2F etc. (encode all the parameters using the RFC 3986 standard). To this end I need to use...

    Could not find schema information for the element 'uri'

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Xml\Schemas\DotNetConfig20.xsd. However, it contains lines I don't need, I only need the lines as in the top chat box above.

    Visual Studio 2010 and Windows 10

    I've just noticed there are some lines out of place when a Windows 10 customer runs the program. In my Windows 8 version the black lines (here highlighted in yellow) are correctly placed but in the Windows 10 version, they are not. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Visual Studio 2010 and Windows 10

    Hi everyone. I am developing in Visual Studio 2010 (v.10). Does it have any issues with Windows 10 that you know of? If I upgrade to VS14, what differences will I notice (regardless of any Windows 10 improvements if any)? Thank you.

    Code signing and certificates

    Hi. I am trying to make it so my programs are more easily installed on customers' computers. So I obtained a Code Signing Certificate (at great cost and many hoops to go through) which is now installed, backed up and configured into a P12.pfx file. In the VB My Project Signing tab that...

    How to get the names of files to be downloaded (Using client As New Net.WebClient)

    Using client As New Net.WebClient: this seems to only download a file whose name you know. Is there a client.DownloadFiles(whatever, whatever, "*.csv")? Or a strFileNames = client.GetFilesInRemoteFTPFolder(whatever), so I can parse the file names from the result? Thank you.

    Using client.UploadFile changes text file

    I should add that the manual method I use to download the uploaded file does not introduce the unwanted line feeds.

    Using client.UploadFile changes text file

    Hi. I am using the following code to upload a file from the desktop to an ftp site. On downloading the same file from the ftp site, I find the file has extra line feeds that weren't in the uploaded file. client.UploadFile("ftp://myfiles.myftp.net.uk/www.mydomain.co.uk/httpdocs/FolderName/" &...
