m_ListOfsAllFields.OrderBy(Function(x) x.DisplayOrder)
here I have DisplayOrder = 0 for 2 fields, so orderby is messing up and not ordering properly. How can I use orderby to order this collection?
The problem is: I have a list of objects, with some containing the same PlanId property value. I want to only grab the first occurrence of those and ignore the next object with that PlanId. The root problem is a View in the database, but it's tied in everywhere and I don't know if changing it will break a ton of stuff nearing a deadline.
So, if I have a list of PlanObjects like such.
Plan1.PlanId = 1
Plan2.PlanId = 1
Plan3.PlanId = 2
Plan4.PlanId = 3
Plan5.PlanId = 4
Plan6.PlanId = 4
I want to take a sub-list from that with LINQ (italics mean an item is not included)
Plan1.PlanId = 1
Plan2.PlanId = 1
Plan3.PlanId = 2
Plan4.PlanId = 3
Plan5.PlanId = 4
Plan6.PlanId = 4
For my needs, it doesn't matter which one is taken first. The Id is used to update a datsbase record.
I'm having a problem implementing Scott G's Dynamic.vb extension at [URL] in my vb solution. I've searched StackOverflow (80+ Q&As) and numerous other sites without much luck. I'm using VS 2010.I've included Dynamic.vb in a problem with no root namespace, and then added a reference to that project in my main one. I'm getting intellisense for 4 overloads (rather than 2) so I'm pretty certain that the extension is in scope.I was having a tough time with clauses, especially the OrderBy as Scott demonstrated. If I simply pass a string as Scott's VB example did I get the error "Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'OrderBy' can be called with these arguments."
The line of code is:
Dim FilteredComponentList = From Component As MX.Component In ComponentList.AsQueryable _
.OrderBy("Name")
So I found other references that stated to pass a Lambda expression. So I tried this and at least I get no error, even if the sort function still doesn't seem to work. Here is the code that compiles and executes.
Private Sub SortByColumn()
If Not cmbComponentFilter.SelectedItem.ToString = "All" Then
Dim FilteredComponentList = From Component As MX.Component In ComponentList.AsQueryable _
[code]....
When I interrogate the dgvComponents.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).Name it gives the objects property I wish to sort by, but the sort still isn't working. I'm concerned why I can't get Scott's implementation to work, but I've heard his keynotes and read his blogs, so I'm guessing the problem lies with my implementation.
I'd like either to work but need to understand why as well. Why doesn't passing a string work? Isn't the PARAMARRAY declared in the function optional?
I am trying to pass a lambda function to Linq's orderby and cannot get it to work.
The relevant code is:
Dim myordering = Function(m) m.Count
If isAlphaOrder Then
myOrdering = Function(m) m.Key 'Order by Alphabet

I have a method in a webservice that has parameter with which users can decide how they want to order their results. This is a List(Of String) with the names of the fields in the order they want to sort them. I know I can normally order on multiple columns by doing the following
Dim test = Bars.OrderBy(Function(x) x.Foo) _
.ThenBy(Function(x) x.Bar) _
.ThenBy(Function(x) x.Test)
However in this case this won't work since I can't chain the ThenBy function because I'm adding the sorting orders in a loop. To use ThenBy I need an IOrderedQueryable collection. This is how I would want it to work
Dim sortColumns = {"Foo", "Bar", "Test"}
Dim query = From b in Bars
For each column in sortColumns
Select Case column
Case "Foo"
query = query.Orderby(Function(x) x.Foo)

I'm trying to use LINQ to identify if there are more than one of any type of product. In SQL, this would work something like:
SELECT Product FROM SOME_TABLE HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
I can't for the life of me work out how to do this in LINQ. I was following someone who did something like this:
Dim q = From row In d.AsEnumerable()
Group row By New { column1 = row("Product"), column2 = row("Value") }
Into grp
[code]....
But I get an error when I try to actually use 'q'. how I can make this work?
I'm using VB .NET and I know that Union normally works ByRef but in VB, Strings are generally processed as if they were primitive datatypes.Consequently, here's the problem:

secondFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop & "2.txt").Split(vbNewLine)

View 4 RepliesI have a form where two fields on the first page of the form make up the primary key. I want to check for duplicate values before attempting to insert the record, since I don't want the user to go all the way through the form only to find out they can't submit it. So I'm trying to check for duplicate values when the user tries to go to the next page of the form. I wasn't quite sure how to do it, and sure enough I'm getting an error. ("Object reference not set to an instance of an object.") The problem is apparently in my if statement, "If myValue.Length > 0 Then", but I'm not sure what needs to be in place of that.

If there is only one item in the database, then this code works. If there is more than one record then the error is produced that it is trying to produce duplicate values. This is down to the Primary key in my database which is the only thing that cannot have duplicate values. However, when I remove the primary key it has the predictable problem that it goes crazy and does weird things.
I had restart my program for 5 times, and i still can get through it. the due date just around the corner.
