Downloading multiple files from a Datagrid with #ziplib with VB.NET

Michael L

I have a problem and all the parts to fix it.

I have a datagrid on my page that gets all of its information from a MS
SQL Server 2000 Database. I do not have the option to go to VS.NET
2005 or ASP.NET 2.0 yet as my host is not that at that stage yet. I
have PDF files that I want to download but I want to do something
similar to what google does and have a checkbox in front of each box
and have the application zip them into one file and download them upon
the click of a download button. This all is going into a DotNetNuke
Module.

I have built the DotNetNuke Module and I have the SQL Stored Procedures
built and I have found #ziplib which will handle the file compression.
I figure I can code the usage of this library into the event handler of
the download button, but the #ziplib is mainly written in C# and I am
not all that handy with C# yet. There are some samples with the
source, but nothing really that I have found use of. I have found an
example on www.codeproject that does exactly what I need but once again
in C#. Has anyone used this library in VB.NET or has anyone seen an
example using this library? Any help would be excellent. Its the
missing link for me and the first time I have tried file compression
components with an ASP.NET application.

Thanks,
MIchael

Problem with downloading ActiveX control in IE 6 SP1

by: fniles | last post by:

We created an ActiveX control and marked it as safe for scripting using Implements IObjectSafety. We then created a CAB file and signed it using Verisign. We also created a license file (LPK file) for it. We use this control on an ASP page. We put the CAB file for the AX control and VBRun60.CAB in the same folder with all the ASP files. When we call the ASP page using any machine with IE 6 SP2 (we tried it with multiple IE6 SP2...

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

by: Oralloy | last post by:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

AI Job Threat for Devs

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
