Sorry for the spelling error there and glad it helped. You can click the Not Yet Answered button if this is working for you.

At least you rolled with my typos too. Thanks for that. At least it's not like one job I had where they insisted to redefining int, Int, true, false and so on. But I did not complain as a few week job took months.

Why they do that? (bad grammar intentional) "Productivity."

I'm not sure how much research you did on this and I'm a little concerned about the typos in your post.

Did you try a "Cors Everywhere" solution for testing? http://pointdeveloper.com/how-to-bypass-cors-errors-on-chrome-and-firefox-for-testing/

My view over the years is that there were and are some thousands that made this mess. There have been efforts to clean it all up but since it's a commercial enterprise there is a limit to what they'll do.

OK, so there is no master plan here so it would be a never ending slog to find all the data types used by all C++ and Windows API today.

This is why I never tried to learn me all (Pokemon?) but only dive back into the areas I need to understand and little more.

There are academia types that will disagree so I'll tell why I took this approach. "I want this app in 2 weeks." (Obvious Money Pitt reference?)

Actually I did nothing of the sort in my app since I had no files or devices open so I had no work to do on a pause or resume. BUT I get it you may need to respond to such events. For this I think we need to open the big book about this. I'd start at this chapter:
https://developer.android.com/training/basics/activity-lifecycle/pausing.html

First, don't spam. Next there are sites that cater to this sort of thing and I found them with this google.
https://www.google.com/search?q=officiant

So have you signed up with those?

My classic understanding of this is you can't just send a new page and the browser update. So let's step back to how a browser in the most simplest way works. For simplicity the browsesr is called "browser" and your web server is called "server."

Browser starts up and you type in some URL. Then the request is made and the server responds. Server sends the HTML and once the end is done, anything else is ignored by the browser.

So how to update in 5 seconds? In your server, replies in the HTML code to reload the page in some number of seconds. Try the refresh code such as http://www.beansoftware.com/HTML-CSS-FAQ/Refresh-Page-After-X-Seconds.aspx

There are more advanced ways that you would code up, but let's go with simple.

You left out the story, details so I'll take a leap that this is some drive you want to recover files. I'm having pretty good luck with Recuva. Try that.

If you want to "fix" the drive then more details are needed and often I have to run GPARTED (it's a boot item and on the web so I don't write at length on it) or DBAN to wipe the drive to start over. If the drive seems broekn, then it's replaced.

Seems to be a desperate move. I only do one at a time till I find it. Then if it works, I stop fixing it.

Just so folk know, there are prior discussions on this one. https://www.google.com/search?q="cannot+resolve+symbol+'R'

So far the only way I've seen such is to have a powershell commnand then pipe that to a text file which you read later.

Remember, I expect you did prior research on this.

Mix in Gparted. Here's a tutorial (one of many on the subject.)
https://www.geekyprojects.com/storage/how-to-clone-hard-drive-to-smaller-drive/

This applies to USB drives as well. I had a client that came back with "but it says hard drives."

Nod to drivers and such in prior replies.

But the story is a little light for me. For example when Flash changed it's default to use hardware acceleration you saw a lot of issues from lockups to other symptoms including your PC.

But here's where your post is light. It didn't meantion it was using a browser, flash or such. Since I am guessing here you should try a google on how to disable hardware acceleration of Flash in the browser you are using.

@Kjell_1, avoid these old posts.

This is one ancient post. But I'll add I did successfully install W10 to a Dell Inspiron E1505 with 1GB RAM and 120GB SSD. While one can find the machine specs it has the CoreDuo (32 bit) and onboard graphics. It appears W10 can run with 1GB and maybe less.

As this was a free laptop to us the 15 bucks for the 2GB memory upgrade was done and that's all it can support.

That tag, is it from PHP? http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php

I suggest you avoid tags like that and use PHP for the tag then supply ypur PHP code and where you are stuck

Since the filename has the .CSV why bother with filetype. Just grab the last 3 letters of the filename if filetype is ""

It's not a setting. Read "\@ "d" * ordinal" at http://www.addbalance.com/word/datefields1.htm

While your question looks incomplete, Google did get it right. Example:
https://www.google.com/search?q=how+i+read+plc+tag+in+.net

So there it is, the PLC maker should have articles how to do this.

The thing is, all you listed do exist. Folk have been creating apps with VB for decades now. 25 years in fact https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Basic

So it's your thesis, you may have to forget that it's entirely new and create yet another such thing but with your new ideas on the subject.

This has been kicked around a lot. So I'll end my answer with "Clonezilla."

Still want to work hard at this? Read priors like http://askubuntu.com/questions/426507/how-to-i-copy-bootable-usb-flash-drive-to-larger-drive

Sort of. You usually work with your Oracle point on this. Usually it's the person that admins your Oracle system. Not only must they create the tables, but setup permissions and tell you where the server is and so on.

I'm seeing folk plow headlong into systems without any classes or seminars. That's OK in my book but is a recipe for trouble either in deployment or in the Oracle lead in your company telling you no. You should have them in on the design from day one.

@Ritesh,

In the next week I will be able to try W8.1 in VirtualBox hosted by a W10 Pro. It's not that I'm doing this for you but I'm going to try it as I can slip that in some current work. May be a week or two.

But and this is a big one, I'm an old hand at drivers. The host machine will be spotless and current on drivers. I don't have anything iffy as to the video area going on like an Intel GMA that could run out of video memory and do odd things.

Also, I re-read your top post and it sounds like you are not trying another install in a VM. I know folk that want to repair a blown Windows OS but as time wears on I'm less inclined to fixes rather than a do over.

PS. Added this with edit. It looks like the host will be some old Core2Quad HP d5000t with an older Nvidia GT240 in it.

For me I head to tutorials like http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_function_closures.asp

I see typos and spelling issues in your post. But past that a query browser does not do this. To me, a query returns results so no update is made and thus you can't use this to pass data. I'd think over what you want to do and code accordingly.

Time passes and folk have written other things about this like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27678477/read-from-a-file-while-another-process-is-writing-to-it-using-stdfstream

First the images in your sample receipt look well over 100 pixels in any direction.

Second I can't get where you send the image back to the server. I know it's bad form but an example of sending the image back to the server and storing is beat up at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13198131/how-to-save-a-html5-canvas-as-image-on-a-server

There's a lot of moving parts here.

Clicked around and can't see a receipt to check on this for you.

I'm on travel for a few days, just post a link to a receipt so I can take a look.

That's a vague question. But the file was sent as it was uploaded so all that's there is there. That is, the old meta data in files have been a curse to some. Example:

Your electronic files may include "metadata"—previous drafts, revisions, and even comments meant for exclusively internal use. The metadata associated with your documents may contain confidential or privileged information. It may also include information damaging to your position in the matter at hand.

In addition to basic information such as your name, initials, firm name, names of previous authors, and where the file was saved, the metadata may include "redline" revisions in the document, hidden text, and comments. This article tells you how you can protect yourself from metadata issues in Microsoft Word and WordPerfect.

I'd stop crossposting on the web if you can't correct your spelling errors. It shows you can't be bothered to fix your spelling or worse when you do that.

I defer to http://php.net/manual/en/language.operators.precedence.php as you did ask it to concatenate " AS " to $index.
Sorry if you feel shortchanged here. It's one of those questions that pop up a lot.

Try this instead.
echo " AS ", $index - 10 . " - " . $index . " SA ";

The only Hun I studied was called Attila. And you do not want me to be like him.

Now that we know it's PHP, add print statements so you can grab those strings to test in your SQL command line tool.

I am not guessing this is a setup error or this is your just installed server as you didn't give up a story about this.

Well there is some good news out there. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/iPhone/Conceptual/iPhoneOSProgrammingGuide/BackgroundExecution/BackgroundExecution.html is a rather long read but here's my answer. Your app developer needs to step up to your requirements. I'm not your app developer so take this link back to them and tell them to make it happen.

Then that's your answer. Tell them only 32 bit OSes are supported. I know companies that do that since they are loathe to update their apps.

Did you test your SQL commands the old fashioned way? That is, you have your strings from lines 10 to 12 so you test if those are OK in your command line SQL tools. I won't guess what script language this is, so in your future posts tell what the language is so folk can comment if you need to wrap your code in try...fail blocks.

The only helpful advice is to not change a thing. If you have it working with an older office then keep on using that version. Any change will incur problems and more costs.

You claim they have financial problems and since those older Office versions run even on Windows 10 (VB6 does too) my advice is to not change the system.

Sorry no. I have not touched a VB5 for decades. I think we left it back in 1998. Good luck with this.

PS. You tagged your post with visual basic 6 and I thought VB5 was just a typo since I haven't found that in the wild since, well, 1998.

As you read in these forums it's rare to get others to write code for you. You get to write the code and then tell where you need help on a few lines.

Here you have the beginning of your specification but no app or code.

Break down your specification to small steps. Code each step. Design your system, implement it and then you should be done. But if it fails, it's either the design on maybe you didn't know the language could do something. Right now your post sounds like you are searching for someone to write it for you. If so, your are now a business in search of programming staff.

I see this kicked around a lot such as this prior.

To see which is the most efficient you would have to benchmark and I didn't repeat what was covered in the prior discussions. However I always ask if select * is needed. Did you really need all that?

This reads like a two part question. The first part looks well done as I read priors at https://www.google.com/search?q=Mysql+change+varchar+into+date

The second part is not clear. You should expand what your specifications are.

I don't think I can help you. You omitted answers to my questions but I will try anyway.

https://www.google.com/search?q="tamil"+language+typing+software finds free ready to use Tamil language typing software. I think it's best you use such software as your programmer skills improve.

Here's what I would test. When the receipt is on screen, do a right click on the image and check its properties.
Also, use a snipping tool to copy it, save it and check its properties.

I think this is your fourth question about the same problem you are trying to solve. While each post has a slightly different twist, they all seem to be about the same thing. But I never quite get what the problem is. That is, one time it's this, another time you write you can't use something and now this.

Rather than post this many times and never reveal the full scope of what you are trying to create, try telling the full story and what your app is trying to do.

The tag you chose seems odd as well. I don't see if this is a language or what OS is in play. By the function names I would be guessing Windows but now with Windows 1 to 10 and about the same in Windows Mobile and Phone, you may have to also tell what the target is as well as show your work to date and what language. May as well tell if you are using Visual Studio 2099 too.

Share a web site with that code so I can check something.

Yes. Thanks again. I should have clicked answered and will now.

I guessed that much. The tab does read Unanswered so it seems odd to have Answered posts showing.

At least other areas seem to have settled down.

https://www.daniweb.com/community-center/daniweb-community-feedback/threads/505143/login-posting-issues-today is currently top of the https://www.daniweb.com/unanswered list. Open it and on the top right it's marke Answered.

Odd why it do that.

You can start by putting in more debugging output where you think it's not working.

Also you can write antoher app that does that directory work and learn how to get that working on its own. In psuedocode:
Read a string from the user.
Get the directory and print it back to the user.

I looked at log4net and can't seem to see why I would use it. .net has some log classes already.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.visualbasic.logging.log(v=vs.110).aspx is for VB.net but you should find the same in C# if you search.

I'm seeing new programmers and website creators arrive without basic search skills. Here's an example search:
https://www.google.com/search?q=to+run+gmail+Adwords

Hmm, seems to be answered. Are you doing your basic searches? Or did you just forget?
