I am using IE to run open a link and perform a calculation. These calculations take some time, and I'd like to generate an excel file that stores the calculation duration. Only time indication I'm currently aware of is the status bar on the bottom. How can I get that value and import it into an Excel worksheet?
Alternatively, if there's any other workaround to just getting the time required to run a page and storing the value, please let me know.
Best,
George

I am very new to LabVIEW and what I want is to know if it's possible to modify an indicator. I have a loop, and in every iteration I want to add a new value (given by the user via a control) to that string indicator, and to display it? I tried many ways, but since it is an output none of them worked. Is it possible to do that? Thank you.
I have also tried using a feedback node, but I think this somehow gives me an infinite loop.
In LabVIEW, an indicators state will be updated every time that it receives a new value.
By far the easiest way to do this is to simply run a data-flow wire into an indicator terminal.
Beyond that you have local variables, and property nodes which add additional concerns.
In your case it looks more to be an issue with the logic associated with your display update than with your actual updating of the value.
(Additionally, why are you using a string display to indicate a numeric value? Using a numeric suddenly simplifies all of your logic.)
To keep a running total - or similar value - in a loop, use a shift register.
This is just a minimal example in which the loop repeats every second until you click the stop button, but you can adapt it to how you want the control flow to work.
So I am doing a reminder tool in Visual Basic for myself and I added a MonthCalendar to the windows (check image). It runs great. User writes down the name and a date (in 24 hour format for now) and then when you click the add reminder, it registers it into the listbox and also writes it into a file so when user closes and opens the application, it stays there. When the time in my PC coincides with the one in the program, a message pops up. The only thing left I'm having trouble is with dates.
I want to be able to choose a date and a message popping at that day with the time. I know it might be simple, but for some reason I can't think of a way and searching around didn't help me.
Here's a snippet of the code I have for when the time coincides:
If (TimeValue(Now) = time) Then 'Dim time As String = l.Substring(0, 9)
MsgBox(msg)
End If
I thought using an If statement similar to this would work, but it tells me that dates really don't go well with boolean and I tried looking around the subfunctions, but I've yet to find any.
To be clear: The only thing I need is to be able to register the date. Here's an image of the designer view.

Use a Timer. Calculate how many milliseconds there are until the event and set the Interval of the Timer to that value. The maximum Interval value gives you just over 24 days. If you need more than that then simply set the Interval again when the Tick occurs. You keep going in jumps of ~24 days until you get to the event.
I have a tabular report that has Show/Hide grouping on the rows. The end user wants all data displayed when first running the report, which is no problem. It covers roughly 3 or 4 pages. Can I make so that if I hide all the data, it then refreshes to show the "rolled" up table on a single page rather than split across multiple pages?
Go to properties window of the cells you are toggling display.
In the InitialToggleState property select False, it will show all data when you running the report initially.
Let me know if this can help you.
I decided to go with the report all rolled up when first run. Expanding from that state seems to keep the report on a single page plus I can roll it back up to a single page (although probably simpler to just re-run it).
I created an application with Access (2013) with VBA. This application crawls a website and inserts some records into database. But it takes too much time.
My solution is to make load bars for waiting. But currently I use the event Form_Current(); and when I set the load bar's value (it's my function) setBarLoadValue (25) Nothing is displayed on the screen. Why ? Because my function run yet.
My question is: How I can manage the event to simulate a load bar in real time ? (Don't want to wait till the end of function to see 100%).
The following link has a beautifully designed Progress status bar. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=265537
The author of the code has provided a Class where you have a Form that acts as a Meter and you basically set the values. It could be real time enough, have a look. I use it in my application and works great.
Finally I found an solution !
Solution
Step1
You must enter this code in your code
DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, Me.Name
Me.Repaint
DoEvents
With this code, you display immediately the form
Step 2
Now, when you want to display something, you must just do that: DoEvents.
When you use DoEvents the form refresh and you can display the new state of the progress bar.
Note: This solution work with Access 2013. Maybe it's not supported with other version.
I'm using VBA in Excel to extract data from a WRQ Reflections session (Version 12). We have done this for years and I'm using the same code (see below) that I have used before to page down.
Once all of the data on a particular screen has been extracted, the code below is run to move down to the next page. Then we extract the data and when finished, we run this code again until all of the data is extracted from all of the screens.
I've used this with many macros before. The problem with this macro, is that when this code is run the first time, Reflections jumps to the last screen instead of the next screen. I can manually page down and the screen moves down page by page. I've tried a number of things but it always moves to the last screen; which means the macro does not extract the data between the first and last screen.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help.
