View 3 RepliesI'm working on a larger VB application (framework v3.5) where the compile time continues to get slower and slower the larger it grows. It currently takes about 7 minutes to compile just the extensions project. We have other similar projects in C# that don't experience the slow compile time.
View 1 RepliesIf I have a very large function/sub in a class that is an instance method (i.e., not Shared), do I gain or lose anything by moving that to a shared method and then declaring a small stub method for the instance use?
I.e., I go from this:
Public Sub MyBigMethod(ByVal Foobar As String)
If String.IsNullOrWhitespace(Foobar) Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("Foobar")
End If
[Code] .....
My thinking is I save on memory size per each instance of the object. Because each instance only has to lug around the stub method which handles calling the shared version and passing an instance of itself to the shared method so that it can do whatever it needs to do. But I'll wager that I sacrifice a very teensy amount of speed because of the added function call overhead.
I am opening a large PDF file using the following
Process.Start(Application.StartupPath & "PREVI.pdf")
I have two questions:
1) Is there a way to go directly to a page number?
2) Can I write a code to have the table of contents show up on the left side of the document so users can click on to go to different sections of the document, not sure if this needs to be done while creating the PDF or if we can do it by code.
I am facing an amazing problem in my application. On my Developement server when I am running my application, then there is one function where I am trying to put whole stringbuilder contents in a string object. This Function is used for paging the reports.For that I am using a method of Stringbuilder.tostring() and when I chek the value of this statement (stringbuilder.tostring()) it shows no such interface is supported, which later on throws exception of system is out of memory. Here i am using .net 2.0 framework and sql server 2005 database.But when I run the application on stagging server then there is no such exception thrown.[code]

View 3 RepliesI would like to step through each *.txt file in a given directory, open it, find and replace all, perhaps a thousand, occurances of a given string (e.g. "00/00/00"), then close and save file, and step to next one in the directory to do the same find and replace. I've been looking at filestream classes and regular expressions but don't see a clear way to do this.
View 4 RepliesI'm faced with a (fun, actually) data mining problem; I have raw ASCII files from instruments, and I want to move that data (~100 GB) into a database, then be able to run various algorithms determining correlations of time series, etc. I would like to write the mining algorithms in Visual Basic (.net, VS 2010 right now), and be able to do visualizations with VB code I have in hand.On the nature of the data: think of a set of several thousand devices, each recording a measurement at a given interval - so I'm talking time-series vectors.
I spent today re-acquainting myself with VB.NET's interface to (in one case) a Microsoft Access database. What used to be fairly simple - DAO I think it was - involved tables, recordsets, etc (and that would likely be fine). Now I seem to be required to have a weird variety of generally useless objects, e.g. 'adapters', 'datasets', etc. The problem is that I know exactly what I need, and all this extraneous stuff just gets in the way (certainly in coding complexity and opaqueness, and likely in efficiency as well).If any of these mechanisms gave me a kind of virtual access to the entire dataset, and let me control caching parameters, etc.it might be great, but I found nothing along those lines.
Anyway, I tried a number of different approaches, and none seemed at all aimed at what I need to do: efficiently do math on a large dataset. I can't believe I'm the first to have this problem, but I can find no useful wisdom out there. I'd be comfortable with pretty much any underlying database mechanism: MySQL, SQL Server, MS Access, but ideally something generally SQL based (I may eventually have to transition this entire system to draw from a client's SQL database, though that's not an overriding concern now). Other than that I want simplicity and efficiency. I thought my old ODBC techniques would work, and to some extent they do, though modifying tables seemed to have bizarre problems (no errors, but not modifications either).
I do have a fairly aggressive deadline to show some algorithm results, so my focus in the short term is to get something reasonable working *in* the short term - in other words, it's less important to me to pick the 'fastest' relational database than it is to pick a database that lets me focus on coding the algorithms, not working through tedious data access coding. If this db could be any smaller, I'd have tried to do it all 'in memory' at least for proving concepts; I don't want to have to learn an entire jargon and approach just to be able to retrieve data points, and write out new info (e.g., first derivatives of time series).
Perhaps I'll need to bite the bullet and just write something myself, a .dll perhaps just to save and restore large time series vectors. It seems a bit frightening to me that one would have to do this in this age, what with all the database systems out there, but I don't have much time to work through arcane interface logic.
I am currently helping to write a Visual Basics program that was originally writing with access.The Original Access program has been used and modified over the past 5 years, During that time the database has gotten pretty big.The problem I am having is If I add the entire database to my data sources it creates data tables for every Table and Stored procedure even when they are not currently used in the program resulting in a 20+ minute build time just to debug.I am currently only adding Tables and Stored Procedures as i need them, so its not that much of a problem now, but as I continue to work and add tables the build time is going to go back up, and Id hate to have to wait 20+ minutes to test a small tweak I made.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load a large CSV file into a Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 database. I've tried using the following: Using MyReader As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser("filename.txt") MyReader.TextFieldType = FileIO.FieldType.Delimited MyReader.SetDelimiters(",")Then splitting the data with MyReader.ReadFields() etc, before using this data to add rows to a dataset in a database table in my project. However, my CSV files are very large, at above 9.5 million rows, and this takes forever, if the computer doesn't crash also. Does anyone have a better idea for what to do? I would like the CSV file to be loaded into the database table, to enable me to sort it, and undertake some querys and maths. The CSV data structure is:2,193,761.40000000000012,43,1510.22,8,1929.60000000000012,22,2564.52,22,2791.70000000000032,19,2971.6000000000004

View 1 RepliesThe Adventureworks database is used extensively for tutorials in Visual Basic applications. This has many tables that can be bound to a solution. What I would like to know is, when using such a large database with many tables and using lots of them, is it better to construct your program with a number of projects all under one solution or to put everything into a single project. If you use a number of projects, what is the syntax for accessing each module from a menu strip in your main form? I know how to do this in a single project - all you do is Form(x).show. In Adventureworks, you have a table for Employees that could be put into a single project with a number of forms - one for data entry, one for displaying all of the employees, a filter to a single employee, etc., etc.
If two small projects rely on each other for some reason, again the syntax for linking them could be an issue. Would it be better to combine them into a single project? My reason for asking is that I would feel safer if I created an application on a project by project basis and then brought them all together in one solution. This way they can be tested individually and then linked together where necessary. Making a disastrous mistake in one then only requires a small re-write rather than the headache caused by a total crash of the whole solution. I would like to know which option professional developers take. I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional and SQL 2005 Express
I'm developing a VB.NET application to obtain data from any data source (using an odbc connection string), and because this i can't use specific .net connectors like MySql.Net connector and i can't previously know if the file/DMBS supports LIMIT parameter. This app will read data from a table in the data source and use the information to make some files. At this point there was no problem with some tables because they are less than 3,000,000 records length, but there is a table that has 5,000,000+ rows length, and when i send the query the connection is lost. I'm working with OdbcDataReader, because i read on MSDN site that this is the best way to read a table one row at time and i just use each record once.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI want to write a program to do Markov chain, but my states are quite large. First of all I calculate all the transition probabilities and revenues for all states(1381860 total states), and store in a multidimensional array. Public RevArr(0 To 9, 0 To 750, 0 To 282) As Long
After that the iteration of markov chain should use these as inputs to calculate the steady-state probabilities. But when I try to run the main code I got this error.Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.
The following is the declaration of second array I add just another dimension for storing all the iterations, but I get this error. Dim stateprob(IT + 1, 0 To 9, 0 To 750, 0 To 282) As single
Im struggling on how to open an excel workbook without one of two problems.
1. After the first workbook is opened and I close the workbook, if another is opened the worksheet area is "transparent", as in, you can see the desktop or any open app behind excel.
2. Closing excel and opening another workbook after X times (4+?) via the vb.net app I use causes the computer to reboot.
I am stuck thinking it is the method used to open excel within the app.The code below has two methods, both produce the same affect. One method is blocked (makes it easy to test either one).[code]I have two buttons that open workbooks, both have identical code less the workbook requirements.Is there a better or best method to use for opening excel workbooks from vb.net?

I would like that someone show me (with code) how to add a new row to a bindingsource. The same thing that the bindingNavigator does but writting myself the code.The fields of the table appear in the form using TextBox. When I click the button "ADD NEW", the textBox must be cleaned and must be ready to introduce a new row.

I have 4k records in access database. And one of the field value contains ~100 lines each so and one other field has ~25 lines. So total database size reaches ~30MB and it takes lot of time 15-20 seconds to load the database in vb.net using odbc [URL]..and updating of any other small fields also takes time due to database being large
So as an alternative I used rtf file (txt files were not preserving all the newline characters). So these file are around 5-10kb only. But for 4k records and 2 fields I have now 8k files. And copying of these 8k rtf files is taking huge time for 5MB transfer it takes an hour or so.So is there any other alternative for storage of this data. So that it will be portable and easily loaded/accessed/updated from vb.net?
Saving data from textboxes to a dataset Default Values - Binding Navigator But i could not do it or didnot understand how to do it. I have a Binding Navigator created by the wizard, I want to put a value "A" in a Textbox when adding new record (press +). I had tried to use this code in txt_site_GotFocus and BindingNavigatorAddNewItem_Click
View 2 RepliesI need to insert values into a text-box in a database form, after a 'Add new record' event has been executed
If i code the 'add new' button click event on the binding navigator my code is run first before the record is inserted. This over rights the displayed record then the new record is inserted. Where can i place my code to run after the record has been inserted
I think I started out with a misunderstanding of what happens with addnew() and canceledit().
I have a strongly typed datasource in memory.
I call bindingsource.AddNew()
Later I find that the record the user was trying to add already exists, so
bindingsource.CancelEdit()
I have not set any properties other than datasource on the bindingsource.
My assumption was that the CancelEdit() would rollback the blank row added by the AddNew(), but I'm getting some odd errors which lead me to believe this is not true.
Could someone verify that CancelEdit() leaves the new row?
I am trying to use a bound datagridview and through the add button on the bindingnavigator adding a new row to the bindingsource and then pass two variables to the datagridview in the new row so they can be associated with the proper ids. I then have a save button for when the end user is done inputting the rest of the data for that record.
The code is below:
Private Sub BindingNavigator1AddItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
AddressesBindingSource.AddNew()
AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("caseNumber").Value = Me.CaseNumberTextBox
AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("interestID").Value = Me.InterestIDTextBox
End Sub
I am attempting to convert and Access CMS to VB and possibly vb.net.
Im using a bindingsource to add new records to my db using bindingsource.addnew()When this is evoked, it seems to automatically increment the recordcount and then blanks out the content of every bound to that tables bindingsource. So that all fields in the new record have to be filled in manually.I would like to be able to pre-fill some of the data in the new record. for instance, when a user adds a new record, have a specific column in the new record automatically populate with the selectedvalue of a combobox.I assume this means I may have to manually code up my own addnew routine, but google has let me down on where to start.
