Hi techgnome

Apologies, I wasn't very clear in my last reply. The objTablerecords is empty so the for each loop just gets skipped over. I've attached 2 .xml files, the "BinLocations.xml" works...

Thank you techgnome, that worked like a charm.

Below is a code sample of what I'm trying to do, the api is returning a result but the objects are empty and I cant figure out why. Can you spot...

Hi All

Hi wqweto

Thanks so much, the "Accept" did the trick and I'm now getting the result back in XML.

I've attached the XMl sample in the message, I need to populate the response data into a grid...

Hi wqweto

Thank you for your reply, I have changed the vb6 code to the samples below but I still only get json back. Am I correct in in thinking that this is on the web api side and not the VB6...

Thank you dilettante

I'll have a look at that tool, I'm going to try and get the response back in XML as that would be easier to handle.

you're 100% correct, the output is in JSON, do I have to change anything in the VB6 code to get the response back in XML ?

Hi DEXWERX

Are you referring to the data in the text document ? The web api is only set to return XML.

Hi dilettante

Thank you for your reply and clearing up my question about json. The data I'm getting back from the web service will be used for reporting purposes so some data could be quite large....

Hi All

I'm using a VB6 app to get data from a REST web service, I'm getting the correct results back from the web service but the data is returned in XML format, I've tried to get the data back in...

Many thanks again

Hi All

I'm busy re-writing a VB6 application into VB.NET, they used Component One's vsFlexgrid control quite extensively, and they use its textmatrix property all over the place. My question is, ...

Great advice again, thanks dday9

thanks dday9, the hiding of the form did the trick. The only thing is that now the forms load even doesn't fire once the form is hidden and then shown again. That's not a biggy I can sort that one...

Hi All

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi All

I'm using ESC/POS commands to print a QR code onto a till slip, everything works perfectly as long as I encode only 10 digits or characters. The moment I try and encode anything longer than...

Thank you Bonnie West, that works like an absolute charm :)

Thanks for all your help LaVolpe i learned a lot from our discussions. Just one question, what in that header file cleared things up for...

Hi dilettante

Here is the header from the c code.



#include <stdio.h>
#include <tchar.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>

Hi Lavolpe

I've changed the byRef variables to long, and now at long last i'm getting data back. BUT the data is incorrect LOL, could this be because it is unicode data ? I've also removed the...

Hi Lavolpe

DetectTransactionCode is a function in the dll. Below is how i declare the function.

Thanks LaVolpe

I've managed to make some progress and would say i'm about 80% there, i still have a few kinks to work out. One of them is that the return values are in unicode, i'm working through...

Thanks for the replies, and sorry for the confusion, i meant procedures. There are only 2 procedures within the DLL that i need to call. I'll give the suggested link a good read and see what i can...

Hi All

I'm busy with an integration to a third party vendor, and they have supplied me with a .DLL that I need to use. The problem is that it is not a COM object so it doesn't register in windows,...

Hi All

The documentation unfortunately isn't very helpful, the Token is supposed to be a 6 - 12 digit OTP and that's about all the information I can extrapolate from their masterpiece reference...

Hi All

A strange one here that I haven't encountered before, I have to integrate to a third party application. Everything has gone swimmingly until I found a sub with a ByVal as token, I get a...

Hi All

Thanks so much for the great advice, I spoke to the vendor that we are integrating to, and it turns out that I only need to call 4 of their functions. So I'm going to keep it simple and...

I'm completely lost LOL

Hi All

Has anyone tried printing a QR code using ESC/POS to a thermal receipt printer ?
I cant seem to find much info on this, any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I have the feeling that that this port shares some relationship with the LPT1 port. In saying that, sending the kick stings that normally work to this PC's LPT1 port doesn't work at all as the ports...
