I'm currently stuck with a very rare answered question:
I have a .dta-file on my computer which contains different data. A normal text editor can't read it as it is binary.
To work with this file, I need to convert it to a .csv-file. I've made my way through Google-results, but I just get info about R and Python, nothing about VB.NET/C#.
Is there any way to convert a .dta file to a .csv in .NET?
I can't really give more information as that is all I can say about it (never worked with .dta before).
As Google does not give me any real help to that, I bring my question up here.
Thanks in advance.

a good friend of mine is currently writing a book for his PhD, and asked me if I could help him automate the process of checking all his given sources (hyperlinks). I've searched all over the internet and could not find any helpful tip on how to help him though. I've came across iText7 and iTextSharp, but could not manage to make them work.
For the beginning it would already be a huge help, if I could just look out for the links (by parsing the whole pdf into a string, and search for the //.../ tags?), and show them in a listbox.
I was not able to find any link using the iTextSharp ANNOT function, so I guess the pdf he gave me is not correctly formatted.. I should still be able to parse the text and search for links (RegEx), right?
Does anyone have a hint for me, on how I could make this work? Thanks in advance!
Hello I am trying read data from .fit extension file from c#.
I need to fetch workouts data from that file.
I have some sample files using and I am using idk at https://www.thisisant.com/resources/fit
I am unable to find any sort of documentation or any.
Any sort of guidance in this regards will be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
If you head to their page (https://www.thisisant.com/resources/fit/), and click the "I agree" button on the bottom, you'll get a zip with a whole bunch of PDF explaining what's what, plus some code examples for C# (and c,cpp, java as well).
What is it exactly you can't find ?
I have just started looking at some work related with reading a mpeg-ts file. This is my first project with video streaming and my first task is to read the program names from the file.
I am currently looking at FFMpeg and FFProbe and have experience in C# and wanted to know which tool/language I should use to do this?
Or do I need another tool or language?
I have launched TSReader and I can see the PAT section which contains the information.
I've had good luck with NetBeans Java IDE and the ProjectX source code. since ProjectX is designed to transform different formats, it tends to have a lot of descriptive info about the file available on the UI and relatively easy to figure out variable naming in the code as well.
Contrast with other programs, which may be more mysterious in their decoding of the format, because they don't ever display the raw header info and don't have those variables named so clearly in code.
Hi i'm new programming and i have written few application to access pdf content by using some dll files, but now my question is how can we write our own dll to access the pdf files. I know it's a big process but i'm very much interested to learn about this. any one please help me.
You can start by reading the PDF specification (warning 32MB behind this link) in order to understand how the PDF file format is implemented. This is necessary if you want to be able to parse it and extract the information you are interested in.
In the meantime (as this reading might occupy you during a certain amount of time) if you have pressing project deadlines you probably want to use an existing library such as iTextSharp.
I know it's a big process but i'm very much interested to learn about this.
That's true. I'd like to suggest to study some open source APIs (iTextSharp) and PDF SDK.
I'm building an Android app that's reads comments from an MS Power Point file.
As i get it ill have to use some API, or build a program in C#.
The problem is that i can't find a way of doing that.
I would like to hear some suggestions or to hear from programmers that accomplish
that, or something similar.
If you can use the power point api that would be the best way however I don't know if that available on android. This is a link to the binary file specification for ppt files.
