I'm coding an application in visual basic in which I have a riddle that the user is supposed to answer in a textbox, then press a button to proceed. Depending on whether or not the answer is correct, different events are supposed to active. Below is what I've tried, but it's not working. Any ideas?
(can you tell I'm a complete beginner haha)
The best way to do it is to ucase(answer) then you check the answer like this
answer = ucase(answer)
if answer="SHORT" then
msgbox("correct")
else
msgbox("Incorrect")
end if
Just utilize the echo command and get a warm-up of what your creative senses want before you head in any particular direction.
Just pop open a terminal and type the following:
echo '<anything harmless/logical/beneficial/creative/fun/funny/amusing/SYNTAX-RELATED>'
echo 0111 (NON-EXPLOITABLE)
echo 0111USER9390(MY IDENTITY)
echo 0111USER93908F13(OPTIMAL/RELEVANT)
echo 0111USER93908F13+SOLVE/SCAN.BIOLOGICAL (MAKE IT UP AS YOU GO)
Do not forget to use <0 Contractions and avoid " or you won't get magic HASH WINNERS!
Just kidding.

I happened to come across a file while changing images for a Toontown Rewritten's Context Pack I've been working on and I stumbled across this file marked
Butterfly7198.txt
and upon clicking on it, I was greeted with the following prompt that reads
"Hi. This isn't part of any grand story arc or anything. We're not using this as
some gimmick to announce some bold new feature. There's no big pot of gold at the end of this rainbow. We're looking for people with technical talent who want to help work on

Then I was greeted with a weird chain of letters and numbers on which I could only assume meant that this was encoded in some language I had no Idea about. The following goes

I was wondering if anyone knew exactly what either language this was encoded with or whether or not there is someone out there that CAN help me decode this.
(Note: I tried using a Decoding website but from all the languages I checked, none of them were matching the language I was trying to find out. This has been boggling me ever since I started working on this 2 years ago.)
It appears to be BASE64 encoded at least in parts. Putting it through a BASE64 decoder gives the text below which includes a few hints as to what this might be.

I have a Page in Lotus, which has an action button.
This button must be not visible when user is not part of role Admin or Supervisor.
The way i did this is by adding this formula:
#IsNotMember("[Admin]"; #UserRoles) | #IsNotMember("[Supervisor]"; #UserRoles)
But it does not work..
If I have only 1, like: #IsNotMember("[Admin]"; #UserRoles) And the role Admin, then as admin I can see it.
But I also would like to have that if user is from role Supervisor and not Admin that he still can see the button.
What to do?
Knut's answer is correct. My answer shows why, and gives an approach to hide-whens that almost always makes them easier to figure out.
Notes has been using hide-when formulas forever, but people really tend to think in terms of see-when in their requirements! We know when we want to see things (when we're Supervisors or Admins in this case). And we're really bad at turning those see-when requirements into hide-when formulas because we're really bad at remembering DeMorgan's Law, which says things like: ^(P & Q) == (^P | ^Q)
So if we state the requirement this way:
Hide when the user isn't a Supervisor or an Admin
we tend to have trouble turning it into the correct formula with two #IsNotMember calls (which are implicitly logical Nots), because we forget that Ors have to turn into Ands in order to get it right. But if we think of it this way:
See when the user is an Admin or the user is an Supervisor
It's easy to see how to express it:
#IsMember("[Supervisor]"; #UserRoles) | #IsMember("[Admin]"; #UserRoles);
Or using the power of formula language lists, we can shorten that to this :
#IsMember("[Supervisor]": "[Admin]" ; #UserRoles);
To turn that into the equivalent hide-when, all you need to do is put a logical Not around it like this:
! (#IsMember("[Supervisor]": "[Admin]" ; #UserRoles));
You can do that with any see-when formula - just surround it with parenthesis and put a ! in front of it, but in the special case of a formula that just uses #IsMember, you can just change it to #IsNotMember, which brings it back to Knut's solution.
Formula
#IsNotMember("[Admin]" : "[Supervisor]"; #UserRoles)
returns #True if user has neither role "[Admin]" nor "[Supervisor]". Use this as hide-when formula for your button. Only Admins and Supervisors will see the button then.
I have a little problem about my .ini file. I am using LabVIEW to pilot a Power Supply GPD-2303. And I have to configure the Voltage and the Current searched for each cards. These datas are in a Database but I have only a read access on it.
Voltage, Name, AlphaNumCode... Are not a problem because it will probably never change so my code is looking like:
[AlphaNumCode]
VSET_1=VALUE
VSET_2=VALUE
CSET_1=VALUE
CSET_2=VALUE
Assembly_PN=VALUE
That's to set Voltage, Current at the start of the execution on LabVIEW and give an Assembly PN "IF KQG then AssemblyPN= 1633".
That's the situation. The problem is there:
[Assembly PN]
CURRENT1_PROG_SEARCHED=VALUE
CURRENT2_PROG_SEARCHED=VALUE
CURRENT1_BLANK_SEARCHED=VALUE
CURRENT2_BLANK_SEARCHED=VALUE
I want to transform it, because if this value is not a fix value. I am looking for Something like:
[Assembly PN]
CURRENT1_PROG_SEARCHED="VALUE IN COLON W, LINE X"
CURRENT1_PROG_SEARCHED="VALUE IN COLON W, LINE X"
CURRENT2_PROG_SEARCHED="VALUE IN COLON X, LINE X"
CURRENT1_BLANK_SEARCHED="VALUE IN COLON Y, LINE X"
CURRENT2_BLANK_SEARCHED="VALUE IN COLON Z, LINE X"
I have found: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/149090
But it show how to interact with the colon but not with a specific case. Is there a command?
That's the last thing I have to do in my Internship to end this project and I do not like let things unfinished.
Hope someone can help me or give me documents to learn how to do it, it will be great :)
Edit:
Yes, this article show how to access data by a text file, and the text file is linked to the data in the database, I was thinking that could work.
I am clearly new about database so I am sorry about the lack of knowledge I will try to do my best, but using SQL server and System DSN to Access it in LabVIEW.
The ini File is read in a LabVIEW Program
By"COLON" I mean "COLUMN
Edit:
I send you my Sub VI and a picture of my code, that's what I want. still having 2 days to end it so I hope you can read me guys!
[1630]LINE=WHERE (OC=1630);
[1631]LINE=WHERE (OC=1631);
[1632]LINE=WHERE (OC=1632);
[1633]LINE=WHERE (OC=1633);
[1635]LINE=WHERE (OC=1635);
LabVIEW Picture of the Sub VI 25/07/16 using DB Select Tool Kit
Best regards,
Robin.
I have found a solution, in fact I am using a .ini file to send a condition:
Just to know: (OC = Assembly Number)
In my .ini I have:
[1633]
OC=WHERE(OC=1633);
Then I send it to the condition in DB Select Tool Kit and I enter the column / table where is the data I am looking for.
Then if a new card need to be test they just need to make a new line in the .ini file:
[XXXX]
OC=WHERE(OC=XXXX);
Thanks for your help that problem is resolve, I hope it can help someone that want to make communication between LabVIEW / .ini / Database
Best regards,
Robin
I have a web app that is all run via one perl file that works with a database. At one point the user can execute an action that takes a lot of time (it adds a bunch of rows from one table to another). Is there a way I can have a wait .gif or message show while the sql is executing, and then have it disappear once it's over? I'm pretty new to perl, saw that this was possible through Javascript and the PleaseWaitButton though. Any help would be much appreciate though. My code for the lengthy update part is below, so I image whatever thing would need to be inserted somewhere in there:
if((#inTable[0])==0){
my $update = `perl /stockhistory.pl
my #updatearray = split(" ", $update);
my $val;
for(my $i = 0; $i < scalar #updatearray; $i+=6){
$val = eval{ExecSQL($dbuser, $dbpasswd, "insert into PORT_ModernData (SYMBOL, TIME, OPEN, HIGH, LOW, CLOSE, VOLUME) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?)",undef, $stocksy,, $updatearray[$i], $updatearray[$i+1], $updatearray[$i+2], $updatearray[$i+3], $updatearray[$i+4], $updatearray[$i+5]);};
}
}
Thanks for any and all help!
The way I understand your problem, I would suggest Javascript, though I do like avoiding it myself.
This way, the user can click the button, triggering the sql get, and the message comes up, while the server does what it does, when done, Javascript can tell the user so and provide the link, data or whatever the result is.
With perl, this would involve a more complicated procedure including further server/client communication.
I would gladly be corrected, though, if anyone knows better.
I am new here. I am very happy that I joined this website, because everyone here is so smart!
Now, let's cut to the chase! Hopefully, I will be able to explain everything properly.
I am creating a Visual Basic application. It's supposed to reassemble a so-called "fake programming language." It's having some issues though.
Let me show you an example before explaining:
If RichTextBox1.Text.Contains("console output >'insert comment';") then
Console.WriteLine("insert comment")
End If
Now, what I want here is a custom input. (if someone types "I want cookies" then I want the console to say that!
For instance, if I type:
If RichTextBox1.Text.Contains("console output >'Insert something here';") then
Console.WriteLine("Whatever the user wrote!")
End If
I just want to possibility to write whatever I want, that's all! I hope I made myself clear, because I am having a hard time explaining here. Help is appreciated! Thank you!
You need to match just the part with the console output > and then replace that portion of the string with empty space, like this:
If RichTextBox1.Text.Contains("console output >") Then
Console.WriteLine(Replace(RichTextBox1.Text, "console output >", ""));
End If
