I'm trying to find a tidy way to set a string using an if else statement according to a numeric value. The only complication is that there is a possibility that this value may contain text. So it needs to handle that situation too.
So this is the basic code:
If cint(QtyShop) > 0 Then
msg = "Stock found in this shop"
ElseIf cint(QtyAllShops) > 0 Then

I have a program I made in VB 6 which has probably hundreds of thousands of lines of code.
Is it complicated to convert it to VB.Net or is it not worth it?
My main problem is that VB 6 doesn't work in Win 7 so I need to use the XP emulator each time I make an update.
I have an interesting project that i would like to complete. I have a batch file used to ping our locations. Has 1 simple input but i dont understand how to get this to work in visual basic 2010.

View 3 RepliesI am refining my VS2010 control renderers and I'm working on the TabControl at the moment. If you take a screenshot of the VS2010 IDE and zoom in on the background of the TabControl (where there are no tabs), then you might see that it consists of a pattern of dots with a slightly different color than the surrounding background. I am trying to draw these dots (yes, I'm going for perfection), but I cannot find a brush that allows me to do this.I am pretty sure I'd have to use a HatchBrush with the right HatchStyle, but I cannot find a matching style.Here is a screenshot showing:
1. The VS2010 background I'm trying to draw (higher contrast and brightness otherwise it's hardly visible),
2. The HatchStyle that is closest to this (DottedDiamond)
3. Why this HatchStyle is not correct (it's missing dots where the green dots are, which I photoshopped in).
Now of course I'm going to have to draw the pattern twice (there are two patterns, offset by 1 pixel, with a slightly different color), but the more pressing problem is the green dots seen in the third image. They aren't there with the DottedDiamond style, and no other style (I think I've tried them all, but hey I might have missed some..) produces a better output.
Does .NET have built-in techniques for more complicated forms of iteration like the following:
1. Iterate over rearrangements of a list.
2. Iterate over subsets of a list.
3. Iterate over all indexes of a multidimensional list.
4. Iterate over all "combinations" of a list, i.e. all subsets of a list of a given length, where subsets that differs only in their ordering occur only once total.
I recently had cause to do (1) and my method was ugly, slow, tedious, and generalized poorly, which is why I ask. I can think of better ways, but it was garbage code anyway [brute force checking that there are precisely 576 seven-digit numbers made up of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 that are also divisible by 11]. The others are just for my own curiosity.
Im trying to tackel a forever complicated process of comparing listviews
Imagine two listviews (listview1 & listview2) both have 4 colums.
On clicking a command button i want it to go through colum 3 of each row on both listviews ( one and two ) and see if they match, if they dont, do a msgbox of the text of colum 3 of that rows text in listview2.
Suppose I want to broadcast CTRL+C to my program without using complicated code (accessing Windows API) to do it.

The problem, The INSERT statement works fine in the form load but not in the button click event?
I was convinced that If <expression> Then <statement [:statement]> Else [statements] in concrete form of If a = b Then SayHello() Else SayBye() End has sense. I read article on msdn on If-then-else, but I forgot why I was reading, so I concluded, that snippet above means this
If a = b Then HelloIsSaid : IsNotEnded Else ByeIsSaid : IsEnded But I have tested it now, and I see, that Else without statement is nothing more than decoration. It would be pretty good if it had function I described. Do you think its good request? Or do you know any circumstance where this Else has some function?

View 3 RepliesI'm writing something that will examine a function and rewrite that function in another language so basically if inside my function F1, i have this line of code var x=a.b(1) how do i break up the function body into symbols or "tokens"?I've searched around and thought that stuff in System.Reflection.MethodInfo.GetMethodBody would do the trick however that class doesn't seem to be able to have the capabilities to do what i want..dit 2:basically what I'm trying to do is to write a program in c#/vb and when i hit F5 a serializer function will (use reflection and) take the entire program (all the classes in that program) and serialize it into a single javascript file. of course javascript doesn't have the .net library so basically the C#/VB program will limit its use of classes to the .js library (which is a library written in c#/vb emulating the framework of javascript objects)
View 4 Replieshow to use them then before, but am still a little confused with a few aspects. Here goes:
1.) Lets say you have a method that checks for a certain condition(s) and if it fails Throws an exception. Does it have to be in a try/catch block? Meaning can the "Throw" statement exist in a block with no try/catch statement?
2.) Now lets say we have a method that has a try catch block and in it there is a throw statement. When the throw statement is executed does it first try to find an appropriate catch block in the same method or does it immediately go back to the calling method without looking at the catch statements in the current method where the exception was thrown?
3.) I created a custom exception class that inherits from ApplicationException. Next I created a method which has a catch block that catches this type of exception and does some action. Is the System(i.e CLR) smart enough to throw an exception of this type, or does it only throw exceptions from SystemException?
4.) I know that some people are more liberal in their use of exceptions and others use it more sparingly when truly strange stuff happen like the DB going down. I am writing code where I am getting some info back from the database, converting it and then storing it. Sometimes there might be data that comes back from the database and other times the field is empty and the Null value comes back. Therefore in the instances where Null comes back from the database I should not convert the value to anything, since I will get an error. What should I do in this situation? Should I let the CLR throw the exception when it goes to convert the Null value or should I check for the Null value and if it exists not convert?
5.) In general when I throw exceptions, is it sensible to only throw exceptions of the type Application Exception or are there instances where the programmer throws exceptions of the type SystemException?
I'm building a listview search feature in my app. (See the code below). It works really well, except if you search "T" then the code removes all items, if you search "t" then it removes every item except for those starting with "t". Is there any way to make a 'like' statement, or use some kind of wildcard to make the statement not case sensitive?

I have coded a case statement that changes the background colour of a panel. [code]When the code is run, it works for the case of colour1 that is NOT 1 or 2. However, when the colour1 is 1 or 2, it is supposed to pick a number from set array and run another case statement. Instead, it only picks the last value (for 1, this is 5, and for 2, this is 7).

I've read that you're only supposed to use a Using block on objects that have a .Dispose() (i.e. implements IDisposable), which is why I'm thinking there shouldn't be a Using on "writer", but instead a writer.Close() at the end. But "file" has both a .Dispose() and a .Close(), so which do I use? The Using or a file.Close()?
Note: I'm using an XmlWriter because I can customize the output. I removed the settings here, though.
