<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="printingtext"></a> 
Printing text in BASIC is done with the <b>Print </b>statement. Similarly, in Visual Basic, you use the <b>Print</b> method. This method works on the object you wish to print. This object can be an entire form, the <b>Debug</b> object, the <b>Printer</b> object, or a Picture control. We’ve already talked about how the <b>Debug.Print</b>
 method directs output to the Immediate window (in Chapter 3). The other
 methods display their output on their respective objects:
<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li> <b>Form1.Print</b> sends output to <b>Form1’s</b> background.<br /></li>
<li> <b>Picture1.Print</b> sends the output to the <b>Picture1</b> control.<br /></li>
<li> <b>Printer.Print</b> sends the output to the printer. </li>
</ul>
<b>WARNING: Recycled paper versus recycled electrons</b>:
 When testing your printing programs, remember that most of the methods 
and properties you will use on the Printer object also can be used with 
the Picture control. So for most of the examples in this chapter, I use 
the Picture control to show you how the various methods and properties 
work. Feel free to try any of these programs out using the <b>Printer</b> object by substituting <b>Printer</b> for <b>Picture1</b>, sending your results directly to your printer. Only your recycler knows the difference.<br />
 <h2>
Printing to and beyond the Edges</h2>
The <b>Print </b>method works much as you would expect. Each time you call the <b>Print</b> method, the output will begin at the start of the next line, except if the previous <b>Print</b>
 method ended with a comma or semicolon. In that case, the print would 
be continued on the same line. Listing 9.4 contains an example of code 
that allows printing beyond the right edge, and Figure 9.3 shows the 
results.<br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.4: Command1_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim i As Integer
Picture1.Cls
For i = 1 To 100
   Picture1.Print “abcdefg”;
Next i
End Sub</code></pre>
<div class="blue">

 <div class="blue">
 <b>Figure 9.3: </b>Any printed output beyond the right edge of the control is lost.</div>
One limitation of this approach is that, eventually, you will reach the 
end of the object. If you continue to print to the object, the text will
 fall off the end of the paper or screen and not be visible. Likewise, 
if you continue to print on the same line, it will also fall off the 
edge and be lost. Neither of these conditions will generate an error or a
 warning. Listing 9.5 contains an example of code that allows printing 
beyond the bottom edge, and Figure 9.4 shows the results.<br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.5: Command2_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command2_Click()
Dim i As Integer
Picture1.Cls
For i = 1 To 100
   Picture1.Print “abcdefg”
Next i
End Sub</code></pre>

 <div class="blue">
 <b>Figure 9.4: </b>Any printed output beyond the bottom edge of the page is lost</div>
<b>NOTE: Clearing the object</b>: The <b>Cls</b> method is used to clear the contents of a form or of a Picture control and to reposition the cursor to the beginning.<br />
 <h2>
Printing in Columns</h2>
Just like in the original BASIC, if you separate values by commas, each 
value will start at the beginning of the next print zone. Print zones 
are aligned based on absolute measurements, not characters. This makes 
it easier to create columns, as long as your data is not wider than a 
print zone. If it’s wider, you need to be careful to ensure that you are
 starting the data in the proper print zone. The code shown in Listing 
9.6 creates columns with commas. Figure 9.5 shows its output.<br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.6: Command3_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command3_Click()
Picture1.Cls
Picture1.Print “abc”, “def”, “ghi”, “jkl”, “mno”, “pqr”, _
   “stu”, “vwx”
Picture1.Print “abcdef”, “ghijkl”, “mnopqr”, “stuvwx”
Picture1.Print “abcdefghijkl”, “mnopqrstuvwx”
Picture1.Print “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”, _
   “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”
End Sub</code></pre>
<div class="blue">
 </div>
<img border="0" src="https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC134106.gif" /><br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Figure 9.5: </b>When you use commas, columns will line up as long as they are close to the same size. </div>
<b>TIP: Things go better with Tab</b>: One of the functions available for the <b>Print</b> method is the <b>Tab</b> function. The <b>Tab</b>
 function will position the output cursor at a particular column in the 
output field. The width of a column is determined by the average width 
of all of the characters in the current font. This is not the most 
accurate way to align columns of information, but it is better than 
relying on the effect of commas and semicolons.<br />
 <h2>
Positioning the Cursor</h2>
Another way to control printing alignment is by positioning the cursor. Each object (<b>Form</b>, <b>Picture</b>, and <b>Printer</b>) maintains a cursor that describes the current position on the object. Two properties describe the location of the cursor: <b>CurrentX </b>is the horizontal component, and <b>CurrentY</b>
 is the vertical component. These properties can be read to find the 
current location or assigned a value to reset the cursor to a new 
position. As usual with these objects, all measurements are made in 
twips. (Recall that one twip is exactly one-twentieth of a printer’s 
point, and there are 1440 twips to the inch or 567 to the centimeter.)<br />
 
The code in Listing 9.7 shows how to move around a PictureBox control using the <b>CurrentX</b> and <b>CurrentY</b> properties. I save the values of <b>CurrentX</b> and <b>CurrentY</b> into the string t before I execute the <b>Print</b> method so that these values remain unaffected by the printing process. Figure 9.6 shows the output.<br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.7: Command4_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command4_Click()
Dim t As String
Picture1.Cls
t = FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentX, 0) & “,” & _
   FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentY, 0)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 0
Picture1.CurrentY = 2880
t = FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentX, 0) & “,” & _
   FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentY, 0)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 2880
Picture1.CurrentY = 0
t = FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentX, 0) & “,” & _
   FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentY, 0)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 2880
Picture1.CurrentY = 2880
t = FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentX, 0) & “,” & _
   FormatNumber(Picture1.CurrentY, 0)
Picture1.Print t
End Sub</code></pre>
<div class="blue">
 </div>
<img border="0" src="https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC147119.gif" /><br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Figure 9.6: </b>You can use the CurrentX and CurrentY properties to control the position of a PictureBox control. </div>
<h2>
Positioning Text</h2>
So far, I haven’t talked about where the cursor is oriented with respect
 to the text you’re going to print. Maybe it’s obvious, but the cursor 
is always at the upper-left corner of an imaginary box that surrounds 
the text. The actual size of the box is determined by the size of the 
tallest character in the text string, the sum of the widths of each 
individual character in the text string, and the font used to display 
the text string.<br />
 
Because this is a rather complicated process, Visual Basic includes two methods that return the size of the string: <b>TextWidth</b> and <b>TextHeight</b>.
 Also, if you have embedded carriage returns, these methods will compute
 the total size of the box based on the size of the longest line and the
 total number of lines.<br />
 
The code in Listing 9.8 shows how to display the same string of text in 
four different quadrants surrounding the center point of the cursor. 
Figure 9.7 shows the results.<br />
  <b>NOTE: Why is there a small space below the text string and behind the text string?</b> This is because the <b>TextWidth </b>method allows for space after the last character in the string, and the <b>TextHeight</b> method includes space above and below the string. This way, you don’t need to worry about where to place the next string. <br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.8: Command5_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command5_Click()
Dim t As String
t = “Hello”
Picture1.Cls
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440 - Picture1.TextWidth(t)
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440 - Picture1.TextHeight(t)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440 - Picture1.TextWidth(t)
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440 - Picture1.TextHeight(t)
Picture1.Print t
End Sub</code></pre>
<div class="blue">
 </div>
<img border="0" src="https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC43566.gif" /><br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Figure 9.7: </b>You can use the TextHeight and TextWidth methods to control the position of text. </div>
In this example, I begin by printing the first string starting at 1 inch
 from the top and 1 inch from the left margin (remember, 1440 twips 
equal 1 inch). Next, I print the second string immediately to the right 
of the first string. I compute its new X coordinate by subtracting the 
width of the string.<br />
 
The third string is printed above the second. Its X coordinate is 
computed by subtracting the width of the string from the 1440-twips X 
coordinate. Its Y coordinate is computed by subtracting the height of 
the string from the 1440-twips Y coordinate. Finally, the last string is
 printed above the first by subtracting the height of the string from 
the 1-inch Y coordinate.<br />
 <h2>
Changing Font Characteristics</h2>
One of the nice features of Visual Basic is that it has the ability to 
use multiple fonts in a single object. This means that you can make a 
block of text bold, italic, or underlined. You can also change the size 
or even the name of the font you wish to use. This allows you to present
 information more dramatically by emphasizing certain items.<br />
 
Doing this in Visual Basic is fairly easy. All you need to do is change 
the Font object associated with the object you are using. In Listing 
9.9, you can see that I copied the same code from the code shown in the 
previous section and inserted some changes to Picture1’s Font property.<br />
 <div class="blue">
 <b>Listing 9.9: Command6_Click Event in Print</b></div>
<pre><code>Private Sub Command6_Click()
Dim t As String
t = “Hello”
Picture1.Cls
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.Font.Bold = True
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440 - Picture1.TextWidth(t)
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.Font.Italic = True
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440 - Picture1.TextHeight(t)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.Font.Size = 18
Picture1.CurrentX = 1440 - Picture1.TextWidth(t)
Picture1.CurrentY = 1440 - Picture1.TextHeight(t)
Picture1.Print t
Picture1.Font.Size = 8
Picture1.Font.Bold = False
Picture1.Font.Italic = False
End Sub</code></pre>
As you can see in Figure 9.8, most of these changes did not materially 
change how the information is aligned. However, in the upper-left 
corner, where I changed the font size to 18, you can see that the text 
is pulled slightly away from the other three text blocks. This is 
because the padding areas above, below, and to the right of the text are
 greater in an 18-point font than in the standard 8-point font.<br />

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic1"></a>Introduction</h2>
In
 this article, I will walk you through the steps of building a Visual 
Basic® 6.0 ActiveX® dynamic-link library (DLL) that will make it easy 
and efficient for you to track and prevent 404 (Not Found) errors on 
your site. Sure, some stats packages will do parts of this work for you,
 but most are not flexible in their "out-of-the-box" feature set. Now 
you will have a chance to expand the techniques in this article to have 
your 404 tracking and trapping do just about anything you want it to do.
 Or, you could use the same techniques to build your own ActiveX DLL 
that has nothing to do with 404 errors.<br />
 You might have already 
asked yourself why I chose a DLL instead of simple Active Server Pages 
(ASP) code, or even an Include file. A compelling argument against using
 a DLL is the debugging process. Because Internet Information Server 
(IIS) holds DLLs in memory, and unless your application is set to run in
 a separate memory space from the other applications in your Web server,
 IIS must be restarted when you make changes to any DLL attached to the 
server. This slows the debugging process somewhat, particularly in the 
fine-tuning stages.<br />
 With those problems aside, I chose a DLL 
mainly for performance reasons. Compiled code is known to be more 
efficient than interpreted code, particularly with advanced tasks such 
as the one this DLL proposes. Also, aside from the obvious performance 
gains, by storing your business logic in a compiled format:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li>Your code cannot be easily "borrowed."</li>
<li>Your application cannot be easily compromised by someone who decides to modify your code.</li>
<li>Microsoft SQL Server passwords and other sensitive data are better shielded from prying eyes.</li>
</ul>
While
 these benefits are always important, they become even more so when your
 code is going to be distributed, placed on a shared server, or placed 
on a server completely outside of your control. In my case, I place the 
integrity of the code at a much higher priority than whether or not it 
will be stolen.<br />
 <h2 class="dtH1">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic2"></a>Prerequisites</h2>
Before we start, let's make sure you've got the goods. You will need the following items installed and running:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li>Microsoft® Windows NT® 4.0 (Workstation or Server), Service Pack 4 or later.</li>
<li>Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack (IIS/PWS 4.0).</li>
<li>The latest Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) release (2.1 Service Pack 2 at the time of writing).</li>
<li>Visual Basic 6.0, Service Pack 2 or later.</li>
<li>SQL Server 6.5 or later (you could use Microsoft Access, but in this article, SQL Server 7.0 and a stored procedure are used).</li>
</ul>
<blockquote class="dtBlock">
 <b>Note</b><code>   </code>If
 you are running Windows 2000, there are no service packs, you cannot 
update core MDAC files, and you will have to add IIS (if it isn't 
already installed).</blockquote>
To add IIS:

<br />
<ol type="1">
<li>In Control Panel, click the Add/Remove Programs icon.</li>
<li>Select <b>Windows Components</b>, then click the <b>Add/Remove</b> button. This will open the <b>Windows Components Wizard</b> dialog box. (Do not attempt to install the Option Pack or MDAC updates on Windows 2000.)</li>
<li>Select the <b>Internet Information Services</b> check box.</li>
<li>Adjust <b>Details</b> as necessary.</li>
</ol>
Additionally, you will need to run this on a computer where you have appropriate permissions to do the following things:

<br />
<ul>
<li>Create a custom 404 page for your Web site(s).</li>
<li>Register a custom DLL on your server.</li>
<li>Restart the Web server (during development). I recommend using a workstation or noncritical Web server for development.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="dtH1">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic3"></a>Quick Overview</h2>
Here are the steps involved in creating this system:

<br />
<ol type="1">
<li>Install prerequisites and verify task permissions.</li>
<li>Enable the custom 404 error page through Internet Services Manager.</li>
<li>Create and test the database and schema.</li>
<li>Create a new ActiveX DLL project and add appropriate references.</li>
<li>Write the code and compile the DLL.</li>
<li>Register the DLL on the development computer.</li>
<li>Edit the 404 error ASP page to instantiate the object.</li>
<li>Before deploying to the production computer, test, test, test!</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="dtH1">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic4"></a>Preparing IIS</h2>
Create
 a file called 404.asp and place it in your root folder (or the folder 
of the application). This will serve as a replacement for the bland "404
 Not Found" error page, and will be the calling point of the component 
we're creating. Feel free to customize it with graphics, a friendly 
"sorry" message, and of course, links to the rest of your site.<br />
 <blockquote class="dtBlock">
 <b>Note   </b>If
 you use graphics or links on this page, remember to use absolute 
references or virtual reference "FROM THE ROOT." This file will "run" 
where it's called, so if you use <code><img src="images/logo.gif"></code>
 where logo.gif is in /images/logo.gif, then a 404 hit in the /test/ 
folder will result in one of those lovely broken images (since 404.asp 
is "running" in /test/ it is looking for /test/images/logo.gif instead 
of /images/logo.gif).</blockquote>
<ol type="1">
<li>Open Internet Services Manager.</li>
</ol>
If you want the file to apply to your entire site:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li>Right-click the machine name in IIS.</li>
<li>Click <b>Properties</b>.</li>
<li>Select <b>Master Properties</b> for the WWW Service, then click <b>Edit</b>.</li>
</ul>
If you want the file to apply to a specific application:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li>Right-click the name of the application in IIS.</li>
<li>Click <b>Properties</b>.</li>
</ul>
<ol type="1">
<li>Click the <b>Custom Errors</b> tab.</li>
<li>Scroll down and select 404.</li>
<li>Click the <b>Edit properties</b> button and change the <b>Message Type</b> to URL.</li>
<li>Enter /404.asp or /<application>/404.asp as the URL.</li>
</ol>
<div class="fig">
<code><img alt="" border="0" src="https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC3204.gif" /></code></div>
<div class="label">
<b>Figure 1. Custom 404 error dialog</b></div>
The
 beauty of this solution is that when you use an ASP page to process 404
 errors, the query string includes the page that was being requested 
(and the headers often provide information for the page that contained 
the bad link). You can do many things with this information. On the 
front end, the most important thing would be to conditionally offer 
appropriate alternatives based on the requested page (the ultimate goal 
is to build a learning application that adapts this for you). On the 
back end for each request, you would need to notify the site with the 
bad link; maintain a database of frequently requested 404 pages (and 
their preferred alternate pages, if any); and replace those nonexistent 
pages with a redirect page (optional). In this article, we will simply 
be logging the 404 entries (future articles will cover these other 
areas).<br />
 <h2 class="dtH1">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic5"></a>Preparing SQL Server</h2>
The
 last thing you have to do before creating the DLL is set up a database 
to store the data. (I chose to use SQL Server because of its flexibility
 and scalability, though you can certainly use any ODBC-compliant 
database—as long as you are aware of possible limitations.) The database
 in this article is called "track404" and the table is called "stats." 
Stats will initially consist of six fields:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li><b>id</b> (INT IDENTITY), which represents an index field.</li>
<li><b>ip</b> (VARCHAR 15), which represents the user's IP address.</li>
<li><b>url</b> (VARCHAR 255), which represents the URL they were trying to access.</li>
<li><b>ref</b> (VARCHAR 255), which represents the URL they came from (e.g., a bad link).</li>
<li><b>dt</b> (DATETIME), which represents the exact time they entered the site.</li>
<li><b>ua</b> (VARCHAR 255), which represents the browser they were using.</li>
</ul>
Here is a screen shot of the table from within Enterprise Manager:<br />
 <div class="fig">
<code><img alt="" border="0" src="https://i-msdn.sec.s-msft.com/dynimg/IC118985.gif" /></code></div>
<div class="label">
<b>Figure 2. New table in Enterprise Manager</b></div>
Next you need to add a user to this database. To do this:

<br />
<ol type="1">
<li>Under <b>Security</b> for this SQL Server Registration, select <b>Logins</b> and add a Login named "stats" (with any password you choose).</li>
<li>Give the user permission on your new database.</li>
<li>Once that user is added, right-click your new table and click <b>Properties</b>.</li>
<li>Click the <b>Permissions</b> button in the top right corner, and give the user "stats" INSERT permissions.</li>
</ol>
Instead
 of relying on simple insert techniques, you can compile the typical 
insertion code into a stored procedure. It is a simple stored procedure 
that accepts five string parameters as inputs and inserts them into a 
table. This will be faster than a general insert, and while the 
difference is negligible now, the added efficiency of stored procedures 
will be significant as your tracking system gets more elaborate. Here is
 the code from the stored procedure:<br />
 
<div class="codeSnippetContainer" id="code-snippet-1">
    <div class="codeSnippetContainerTabs">
        
    </div>
<div class="codeSnippetContainerCodeContainer">
        <div class="codeSnippetToolBar">
            <div class="codeSnippetToolBarText">

To give executive permissions to the stats user:

<br />
<ol type="1">
<li>Under <b>Stored Procedures</b> in this database, right-click and select "<b>New Stored Procedure</b>"</li>
<li>Name it STrack404, and insert the above code. Click OK.</li>
<li>Right-click, then select <b>Properties</b>.</li>
<li>Apply exec permissions for the "stats" user.</li>
</ol>
Finally,
 we need to create a connection string, which will be used in the 
component later. If you're not using integrated security, you must add 
the user ID (UID) and password (PWD) into the connection string, as 
shown in the following code example:<br />
 
<div class="codeSnippetContainer" id="code-snippet-2">
    <div class="codeSnippetContainerTabs">
        
    </div>
<div class="codeSnippetContainerCodeContainer">

Test your connection string in a simple ASP page before proceeding, 
and make any necessary corrections before moving on. There's no greater 
frustration than having to recompile a DLL simply to straighten out a 
botched database connection string. Here is an example of what your test
 ASP page could look like:<br />
 
<div class="codeSnippetContainer" id="code-snippet-3">
    <div class="codeSnippetContainerTabs">

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic6"></a>Starting the DLL</h2>
Open
 Visual Basic and start a new ActiveX DLL project. The first thing you 
want to do when creating a project is right-click the Project Name and 
change it, as well as change the initial class name to something you'll 
remember. Naming a project "Project5" does very little to set it apart 
from "Project3" or "Project4." In this case, they are named "Bertrand" 
and "track404," respectively. (Incidentally, unless other project 
changes are made, this will cause the ProgID of the compiled DLL to be 
"Bertrand.track404," and that is what is used in the <b>createObject()</b>
 call from ASP. Also, the compiled DLL will be called "Bertrand.dll." 
You are more than welcome to use any name for your project and DLL. Just
 make sure it's unique so that you won't be crosswiring anything in the 
registry.<br />
 Next, select <b>Project</b>, then <b>References</b>, and add the following references:

<br />
<ul type="disc">
<li>Microsoft Active Server Pages Object Library.</li>
<li>Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library.</li>
<li>Microsoft Transaction Server Type Library.</li>
</ul>
These references allow you to use the intrinsic ASP objects (<b>Application</b>, <b>Request</b>, <b>Response</b>, <b>Server</b>, and <b>Session</b>) and ADO objects (such as <b>ADODB.Connection</b>).<br />
 <blockquote class="dtBlock">
 <b>Note</b><code>   </code>In
 Windows 2000, as you can see in the following screenshot, the Microsoft
 Transaction Server Type Library reference has been replaced by "COM+ 
Services Type Library."</blockquote>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic7"></a>Into the Code</h2>
The first item we're going to need is the <b>Request</b> object. In this initial build, we have no need for <b>Session</b> and <b>Application</b> variables, nor for the <b>Response</b> and <b>Server</b> objects, so there's no point in introducing them into your code. The <b>Request</b> object will allow us to retrieve the user-specific information we'll want to track. We'll also set up our <b>Connection</b> object and <b>Logic</b> variables, as shown below.<br />

Below is a very simple function that grabs any <b>Server</b> 
variable and removes the always troublesome apostrophe, instead of 
performing this code each time it is required. I called this function <b>getSV</b>, and it is as follows:<br />
 
<div class="codeSnippetContainer" id="code-snippet-5">
    <div class="codeSnippetContainerTabs">
        
    </div>
<div class="codeSnippetContainerCodeContainer">
        <div class="codeSnippetToolBar">
            <div class="codeSnippetToolBarText">
                
            </div>
</div>
<div class="codeSnippetContainerCode" dir="ltr" id="CodeSnippetContainerCode_0c707293-25e4-4675-aa7d-b24973a9d95c">
            <div style="color: black;">
<pre>  Public Function getSV(ByVal str As String) As String
     getSV = Replace(objRequest.ServerVariables(str), "'", "''")
  End Function

</pre>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The above code retrieves information such as the user's IP address 
and the URL they were referred from (if that information is available). 
Now, create a method called <b>Log()</b>—; this is where all the action takes place. Once the <b>Request</b> object is created, we call <b>getSV()</b> to get the user-specific variables. We set <code>boolValid = false</code>
 so that the default is to NOT log this hit into the database unless the
 404 page was accessed legitimately. For example, if someone just types 
in the URL of your 404 page, the hit shouldn't be logged.<br />
 Next 
you need to test that the length of the query string is at least four 
and that the first four characters are "404;". If both conditions are 
true, you then set the boolValid flag to true, and parse the URL for 
everything after the server name (that's the reason for <b>vntServerName</b>).
 For example, if the user attempts to get to the URL 
http://yourserver/page.asp, then the only relevant information is 
/page.asp—no sense filling up the database with 
http://yourserver/prefixes (unless, of course, you're using a common 404
 page for several distinct domain names in a multiple host header 
situation, in which case you can simply remove the last if/end if 
block). As mentioned earlier, there are safeguards in place that do not 
log the entry if there is no query string. Additionally, we don't log 
the entry if the file requested was Favicon.ico (which happens when a 
user adds your site to their favorites in Internet Explorer 4.0 or 5.0).
 This will be addressed more in future articles.<br />

That's it for the code. Select <b>File</b>, then <b>Make</b> 
Bertrand.dll, and you're almost set! Now, in case this doesn't compile 
for you right away, code for a batch file is also included that will 
allow you to quickly restart IIS and other dependant services. (As 
previously noted, once a DLL is attached to IIS, it's very difficult to 
"detach" it.) A shortcut to this batch file is sitting on my taskbar, 
which should tell you how often I use it. It is called Restart.bat and 
contains the following code:<br />

The last two commands are only necessary if you run a File Transfer 
Protocol (FTP) service and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) service 
(our workstations here, for the most part, only require the first two 
lines). Once the Web server has been stopped, you can recompile your DLL
 without getting a Permission Denied error.<br />
 The final two steps are registering your new DLL and writing the ASP code to call it. Click the <b>Start</b> button, point to <b>Run</b>, and type in the following (replace <path> with the absolute path where you saved your DLL):<br />

Now that may not be everything. Once you port this DLL 
to the production server, you may have problems if the correct Visual 
Basic run times are not installed. You can get around this either by 
using the package and deployment wizard, by installing Visual Basic 6.0,
 or (recommended) by installing the Visual Basic 6.0 run time library on
 the server (you can <a href="http://download.microsoft.com/download/vba6/utility/1/win98/en-us/vbrun60sp3.exe">http://download.microsoft.com/download/vba6/utility/1/win98/en-us/vbrun60sp3.exe</a> <a href="http://download.microsoft.com/download/vba6/utility/1/win98/en-us/vbrun60sp3.exe">Download the run time library here</a> and read about it in <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q235/4/20.asp">VBRun60sp3.exe Installs Visual Basic 6.0 Run-Time Files</a>).</div>

<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="404track_topic8"></a>Conclusion</h2>
Well,
 happy coding. Within no time you should have a stats table full of 404 
information, just waiting to be extracted. Here is a sample ASP 404 
page, as well as a small sampling of test data retrieved from the SQL 
Server database instantly:<br />

<b>Figure 4. Sample 404 page</b></div>
Stay
 tuned for the next article, where I will enhance this component to 
provide a viewing and maintenance interface for the stats, and reveal 
methodology behind making this application smarter. In the meantime, you
 could expand this technique to other kinds of errors.<br />

 by the TransparencyKey, which only makes a form and its controls 
completely transparent if they are the same color as the value specified
 in the <strong>TransparencyKey</strong> property. When this property is
 set to a value less than 100% (1.00), the entire form, including 
borders, is made more transparent. Setting this property to a value of 
0% (0.00) makes the form completely invisible. You can use this property
 to provide different levels of transparency or to provide effects such 
as phasing a form in or out of view. For example, you can phase a form 
into view by setting the <strong>Opacity</strong> property to a value of 0% (0.00) and gradually increasing the value until it reaches 100% (1.00).</td>

elements that include text are displayed from right to left.
If the control is a top-level control, the user's operating system is
 queried to determine whether the control needs to enable right-to-left 
support.<br />

The following are a few examples of how control elements are affected by the <strong>RightToLeft</strong> property value of <strong>RightToLeft.Yes</strong>:<br />

<ul>
<li>Vertical scroll bars are displayed on the left side rather than right side of scrollable controls.</li>
<li>Horizontal scroll bars start with the scroll box (thumb) right-aligned.</li>
<li>The check box element alignment, controlled by the <strong>CheckAlign</strong> property, is reversed for CheckBox and RadioButton controls.</li>
<li>Text displayed in the title bar of a Form is right-aligned. The icon
 and control box retain their left and right alignment respectively.</li>
<li>Items in list box, combo box, and up-down controls are right aligned.</li>
<li>Menus are displayed right-aligned.</li>
<li>The alignment of toolbar buttons on a ToolBar control or the alignment of text on a ToolBarButton is not affected by the <strong>RightToLeft</strong> property.</li>

Comparison Between VB 6.0 and VB.NET Objects, Part 1

<p><div class="post-info">
</div>
<span class="body">With this article, I want to provide a 
detailed explanation of the Form object's Property Window changes (from 
Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic.NET). This will be very useful when you
 come from a Visual Basic 6 background. This article is not just aimed 
at VB6 veterans but to anyone starting with Visual Basic.NET—as you will
 see.<br />

First off, start with the Visual Basic 6.0 Form property descriptions and settings.<br />

<h3>
Visual Basic 6 Properties Descriptions and their Settings</h3>
Have you ever wondered what all these properties do? I have found 
myself seeing a Form property in the Properties Window, and realising—I 
haven't used it before, or I don't know what exactly that particular 
Property does. So, what I've done was to compile this list of Visual 
Basic 6.0 Form object Properties along with Descriptions and Settings, 
which will be a handy reference to anyone using Visual Basic 6.<br />
