I'm working on a program to delete files from a certain folder after they have aged a certain amount of time and either match via regex or extension. I'm running into an issue where files() could be:
files(0) = Nothing
files(1) = Nothing
files(2) = Nothing
etc....
Right now the way it is written, I could place
Else
log(1) = data(1)
log(3) = "Array field empty"
InsertLog(log)
And the program would log as many files as file(i) = Nothing holds. This would create redundant database records and is not wanted. Is there a way to figure out if ALL files(i) = Nothing and then place code in there to insert into the database?
'If log(3) is successful that means no files were old enough or deleted successfully
If log(3) = "Success" And IsArray(files) Then
For Each file In files
If Not file.IsNullOrEmpty(file) Then
'If files is actually something insert into the log
log(1) = file

I have a form with a textbox, and i would like validation to occur so that a blank field is not allowed e.Cancel = String.IsNullOrEmpty(TextBox.Text) Does not always work, because it still allows me overwrite an existing field with blank spaces, and then update.
I started editing an existing code (basicaly to learn vb) without any real previous experience. Well let's get to the point;I have a form that gathers data from db ordering by user ID (on click count).I have one DataGridView with a list of user,some have data in db, some have not. I came so far that if I CLICK on a user that have data, all data is dissplayed in 6 dinamyc textboxes.If user has no data inly first (emty) row with 6 dinamyc textboxes is created.
BUT THE POINT IS (my question to you) - I have a button that simultaneously adds a row of dinamyc textboxes bellow and multiplyies textbox04 (name is clickcount & 4) and textbox05 and displays the result in textbox06.I want to add a messagebox that shows if textbox04 & 05 are empty and in that case exits sub. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click 'Reset warnings[code].......
The problem is that if you never enter anything into a cell for a new row then that cell is never validated. This is a problem because I have columns that should not be null. I am doing the check in the row level validation and storing the information about which cells are empty that should not be empty. The row level validation works fine and the row level validation error indicator goes on,(red exclamation mark at the beginning of the row) but I also need a visual indicator on the individual cells that are in error.
I am thinking that setting the HasError property for the cells that are in error should cause them to display n error style (the default red border). Is there a way to this this either from XAML (perferably) or from code?Alternatively I could cause those cells to re-validate when the row editing is finished. Does anyone know how to do this?
I have large lists of account numbers in an array to validate. They have distinct patterns of characters so ve decided RegEx is the best method. As it is I loop through every element and match. Is there a better way? I saw they Array.TrueForAll Generic Method but after messing with it a bit it seemed that I would have to write a separate function negating the benefit.
On a button click I need to test whether or not an array has been filled, if it has the user gets linked to a new form otherwise they receive a message box telling them to first assign values to the array.
I've tried 'If MyArray Is Nothing Then....' and 'If MyArray.Length < 1 Then...' but neither seemed to have worked.
find the first empty value on an array?Say I have a directory and will occasionally be adding and removing items from an array to represent this. How would I go about making a loop until the entry is empty. I've tried various things like if null and that sort of thing but none of them seem to work- the problem is I guess that this array value is empty and the system can't deal with it without throwing an error message.Creating an array of a set size from the start isn't an option as I've no idea how big the directory will ultimately be.
Lets say I declare a public array for a structure, and initially I give it 99 indexes (well 100 with base 0), how would I get the first empty index? I thought of doing it like this but a structure array cannot be nothing:
Dim index As Integer Dim RecipeItem As New RecipeItem RecipeItem.name = InventoryList.SelectedIndex RecipeItem.amount = AddItemAmount.Value For index = 0 To _recipe_item.GetUpperBound(0)
What is the best way to take an array in VB.NET which can either be Nothing or initialised and give it a length of zero?The three options I can think of are:
ReDim oBytes(-1) oBytes = New Byte(-1) {} oBytes = New Byte() {}
The first example is what most of the developers in my company (we used to do VB 6) have always used.
i noticed a problem with a program i made that occurs when an array element is called to use but is empty under a certain condtion therefor throwing an exception. i tried to define that element after the array was initialized to give it a default to use, but its not workin for me?
How do you declare an array when the array is initially empty?? I am taking multiple measurements from a meter that I want to put into an array. How would I declare that?? Here is my code to accept the last measured value.
HTML Dim measResult as string For I as Integer = 1 to 4 measResult = objDevice.gpibRead(i, 30) ''30 is the buffer size Next
How can I set up measResult so it is an array that will hold all of the measurements from the meter?? I have tried Dim measResult() as string, Dim measResult() as String = objDevice.gpibRead(1, 30) but no luck.
I have an array set up to receive the names of forms when they open. The form name is sent as a Form not a String therefore when I run my code I cannot check for whether the field is empty in the normal way (ie. array(1) = "") as the "" are only usable with strings!
Dim Forms(24) As Form Dim i As Integer Dim Free As Integer = -1

I only need a solution to do the same as array(1)="" but for windows forms.
I have a large one dimensional array that is called ArrayHold which is populated at runtime. I run a loop to scan through the array to find out which elements need to be removed based on a few parameters. This all works great, now I am left with two arrays. The original one and a new one which contains the locations of the elements to be removed.
Original Array: ("A")("B")("C")("D")("E")("F")("G")("H")
Second Array with index/count of elements that needs to be removed: ("0")("3")("5")("7")
End result should be preferably not in a new array but a "ReDim" of the original array:("B")("C")("E")("G")
What would be the simplest way to achieve this? I could run a loop to make all the elements that need to be removed "0" or ""? Would there be an easy way of resizing and array by dropping/removing all the white space or empty elements?
I am trying to create a code where I placed sets of numbers in an array.I'll use a masktextbox to have the user enter the numbers to match what's in the array. If the user enters the number, ex: social, and the data is correct (matches the numbers in the array), something happens if the number entered in the masktextbox does not match any of the number sets in an array then another thing happens.The masktextbox so far only validates format and gets number only, however, I want the number entered to match whats in the array.
i have a string array that i want to output to a text file. the array size is 10000. i fill the array starting from 0 with some strings. at the end, i only want to show the array from index 256 to the last array that is not empty (for eg. if the array is filled with data from 0 to 2000, i only want the text file to show the data from 256 to 2000 and ignore the remaining strings). Is there any function to do this?t i use is shown below
Dim myArray(10000) as string Dim strArray As New System.IO.StreamWriter("c:List.txt") strArray.WriteLine("{0,10}{1,30}", "Index", "Symbol")

I have a DataGridView that has some columns with dates. It binds to an in-memory Datatable which gets loaded from an string array of data passed back from the backend Some of the rows returned have nulls for the date columns. Solution 1: If I define the Date column in the DataTable as "string" I can easily convert those nulls to empty strings and display it in the grid as empty strings (desired results). However, if the user clicks on the date column header to sort by date, it doesn't order the rows as you want. You get a purely string sort order. Not acceptable
This must've have been asked before but I couldn't locate it. In a mixed code project (VB and C#) we were debugging some old Visual Basic code where a statement as follows could be found:
If Request.Params("xxx") <> "" Then 'do something
I considered this a bug as Request.Params could be null, in which case the statement would've become false which wasn't the idea. So I thought. I just found out, -- probably for the tenth time and I will keep forgetting -- that the following two statements are not equal, while Nothing in VB should be equal to null in C# (thought I):
if(String.Empty == null) // always false If String.Empty = Nothing Then ' always true
Should I dismiss this as a typical Microsoft backward compatibility effort, or should I consider this a huge error in the VB.NET compiler? Does anybody know the Microsoftean opinion on this oddity?
I have an array of people stored in a custom structure array... how can i copy this array to a temp array so that the temp array has all the same values as the original custom array?
I am trying to create the following program Store in a 1d array a set of 5 place names and in a 2d array the distances between the places. Ensure that the order of the places is the same in both arrays. When the names are places are input the distance between them is displayed. If they are not both in the table a suitable message is displayed
Dim town(1 To 5) As String
Dim Dist(1 To 5, 1 To 5) As Integer
Dim First As Integer

I think the best way forward is pass a parameter to the function findnumber.
I'd like to write a license management based on a wcf services.
How can I ensure that the (end)-user/"hacker" can not replace our license management services with a corrupt server?
Our license server is hosted on our server in the internet. When the server send corrupt data to the client the complete license management concept is destroyed.

i have 3 div tags.Each having no. of textboxs and button.Each textbox having validation.For all button causesvalidation property is true.If i click "button1" in "div1" tag will cause validation of other textbox in other div tags.I dont want to do this ? How to avoid this?
Ok.. i'm trying to validate a textbox, and i think i got the code pinned down, however,after it is validated.. how do i loop so it lets you input the data in again after you have entered incorrect data
Do NameNew = txtName.Text If txtName.Text > 100 Then MsgBox("too high")
