If I dim an array to say, 5 elements, should it not fail if I go to add a 6th? I thought this used to require a redim. In .NET 2.0, I have a character array of length = 3. When I populate it from the db, one record had 4 characters in it and it successfully added all 4 characters to the array?

View 3 RepliesI don't know if I can do this here...but here goes. I want to generate a unique ID of fixed length The trouble is, the code example I found on the web is in C# (or C maybe) which I know nothing about. I tried a web-based C# to VB.net converter but the result doesn't work so its hard to understand what's going on (especially since I have not worked with bytes either this makes it more difficult).

I've a text file which has some data written. Records have Starting character as "#2" and Ending character as "#3" in ASCII respectively and the file includes series of records, but not written as Line by Line. The difficulty I'm having is, to how to transfer those data's into a database. The File comes a 7mb file and looping character by character then noting down the Record Starting Character and Record ending Character, and finally substring them is not feasible as it take more time and makes the computer slower. I would like to know is there any easy way to transfer them?
View 3 RepliesI'm parsing fixed length file with .NET 3.5 and Regex. This file is from bank. In customer name sometimes there is one characters from this set &,(),[],',"". These are characters, so far I've encountered. There can be anything else. Because of this my regex is failing. My regex is [A-Za-z0-9s-.,'""""(){}[]]{35}. Is there any wild card I can use for special chars rather than specifying individually. I also tried . but didn't work.

i am trying to import a fixed length text file into an access database (accdb). I already have the table created but it doesn't have to be that way. i am wondering if i know the field lengths, can i a use a SELECT INTO query to get the data into access. or do i need a schema file?
View 1 RepliesIn my application, a string generated its length can varying from 1 to 100 (not using random number algo). But I want if length is less than 7 than need to add integers 1,2,3.. untill its size reach to 7. I implements it using while loop as :
If generatedUserName.Length < 7 Then

Is any other better way such as enbuild function Tostring() with some parameter?
so i have a file that i need to read in vb.net. Each line is 32 chars long and each line consists of multiple fields. Meaning from char 1 to 9 it idicates ID then char 10 indicates an identifier,11-14 indicates a value field. I've looked at Readblock and it's not the tool for the job. Is there a way to break up each line into its respective fields other than just reading the whole line and breaking it up as a string?
View 3 RepliesGot a dll from a supplier that I need to call. His declaration is Declaration with Microsoft Visual Basic: [code]Now, the Sting * 20 is clearly not VB.NET, and sure enough it crashes when run - "Attempt to read or write in protected memory" and that leads me to think that there is something with that string definition - or possibly the I_Ref definition which hasn't been defined as fixed length.I've tried <VBFixedString(20)> when defining O_Err, but I have a feeling that it might not be enough when the function declaration is like that (not specifically fixed length). I cannot figure out how to specify this correctly.As a small hmmmm, the above is pasted directly from the suppliers documentation, but that't will never work, as there is a "," missing after I_Range as long... Clearly not something he has pasted from a working program.

View 4 Replieswhat do you think would be the best way to load a fixed length text file into ms access? this is how i would normally do it if it was comma delimitted:
sql.CommandText = "SELECT * INTO [tblMailList] FROM [Text;DATABASE=" & FilePath & ";HDR=NO].[" & FileName & "]"
sql.ExecuteNonQuery()
In languages like C++ and Java, it is possible to declare an array of an arbitrary size and then give it a specific size later in the code.

View 3 RepliesI am using VB .Net to access the eBay API and store all completed orders in a database. This database is then fed into a proprietary shipping system, which can not handle an order number larger than 20 characters. eBay returns an order number like so 230407279314-680141236013 which is too long. The order number is always 12 numbers a hyphen and 12 more numbers. What I need to do, is turn this (the result can be alpha numerical) into a shorter, unique order key to store in my database alongside the true orderId (so that this can be referenced by the shipping software instead of the actual order number). The reason for the 20 character limit is the barcode algorithm used. Is there any way to achieve this in VB .Net 2010? This number can be anything unique, so long as it does not exist already (even a good uniqueid function would work, but I would have to query the database to make sure it isn't taken)

VS2010 (SP1) / .NET 4 on Windows XP. The question is simple, the answer; not so much. When generating a salt, should the LENGTH of the salt be random, fixed or a random number within a (min/max) range? I am using RNGCryptoServiceProvider to generate the salt, just unsure of the length of the salt.

I have a field displaying on a datagrid that the user has asked to be variable length based on the data that is returned. Is there an easy way to determine how many characters are returned for a field and then converting that to a pixel length so that I can change the length of the field in the code.

If using the following in an if statement I get an error: If trg.Name.Substring(4, 6).ToUpper <> ("ABCDEF") Then I get the error: "Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length"
I assume this is because the string (trg.name) is too small for the 4, 6 substring. What would be the correct method of working around this problem? VB.net Studio 2008.
In VB6 I load a recordset containg all of the records (6 fields per record)in a table into an XArray and then manipulate the records in the array and then write them back to the original table. The array issorted by the first field (1 to maybe 8000 or more) I need to find records in the array by an ID field and then move them (because of some external criteria that happens many times) from say number 400 to number 375. Then all of the other records between 375 and 399 were renumbered up 1 to fill the gaps left by the move.
The XArray worked well as it could find and also move to a next record easily to facilitate the revisions to each record quickly. Everything is done in VB6 in code and nothing visual needs to be shown to the user until say 2000 of these external changes are complete. What is the best, most efficient way to do this in the .Net framework in VB2010. Datasets, Dataviews. tableadapters, arrays. enums ?

I have a VB.net console app and I am opening a function in a dll written in fortran. I am passing 3 arrays through the function by reference. When they come back out the otherside they ahve all tunred to arrays of only one element And that element is 0.I read on the internet somewhere that when doing this kind of thing it is a good idea to only pass the first element of the array into the function.I tried changing my function declaration to accepting single elements rather than single dimensional arrays, and now the arrays are the same length before and after the function call, but they don't seem to be changing at all, so i'm not sure that this is working
