Which of the following is more readable and preferable?
This, where the default value is assigned in the declaration:
Dim isLastWeekOfPeriod As Boolean = False
If periodInfo.WeekCount = weekInfo.Week Then
isLastWeekOfPeriod = True
[Code].....
I'm sure it is negligible, but given that I want to assign true to a boolean field from within a method, does this choice make any difference? If so, why? field = true; // could already be true, but I don't care
View 4 RepliesI am using a boolean embedded in a for next loop. I thought the value would ALWAYS default to false inside this loop, but it seems to hold the value of true inside the loop, even when moving to another value of i. What's up with this?
For i as integer = 0 to 5
im b as boolean
se boolean value later...

I have a problem during defining a Sub routine in VB.Net. I am defining a sub routine which is as under
Private Sub ActivateControls(rdbutton as RadioButton, Optional txt as Textbox, Optional txt2 as Textbox)
End sub
When I call this sub routine It gives me the Error that Each Optional Parameter must specify a default value. So, Here I can't understand that what can be the default value of a textbox. What default value I can use here to remove this error.

View 9 RepliesI need to assign a varible in a while clause. I.e., i would do it in php like this: while (!is_bool($char=$this->getChar()) in every loop, the function would assign $char a value, the is_bool function would test it, and the code INSIDE the while clause would have access to that $char.
View 4 RepliesHow can I assign a value to a message box for when the default value displayed in the text box is unchanged. ie. If my default value is 17 and the user clicks ok without retyping a number, the Input value displayed in a textbox will be 0.
Currently I have:
Public Class Form1
Dim MyValue As Double
Private Sub But_EnterInput_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles But_EnterInput.Click
MyValue = CDbl(InputBox("Input a value", "Data Input", "17", 200, 400))
[code]....
This works however if the user types 17, the textbox will read 0. not what i want.

From what I read it is a good convention to name a method that returns a boolean value with the prefix of "is" or "has". So in keeping with this convention I am trying to name a method in my program with this prefix but I am running Specifically I have a class called Day. It is a simple class with a few data members and one method that returns a boolean value of true or false. The name of the boolean variable is isSpecialDay. This class has a method called isSpecialDay which takes the date of the day, applies some criteria to the date and then sets the variable isSpecialDay to true or false. My problem is that the boolean variable is named isSpecialDay and so it the method. What should I do?
Public Class Day
Private TheDate as String
Private DayName as String

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?

Is it possible to set a project default for VB.NET winforms projects so that the default Modifier for controls added to winforms is Private (not Friend)?I know there's a "modifiers" property in the properties window so I can set it for each individual control however I would like to change the project so from now on myself and other developers have to specifically decide to change from friend to private. (Which I would strongly discourage them from doing).I believe there is no way of doing this, but on another forum a while ago someone mentioned it would be possible with an add-in (but didn't name the add-in or where to get it).

We have a great book written for Visual Basic 2005 that we type code that is prepared in advance. We are using Visual Basic Express 2008 and normally this works really great; type the code run the program and it works, however I am running into a snag.
The textbook shows the following code: IN THE(General) (Declarations)AREA we are told to type the following:
' Create a Graphic object to use with the game's bitmap
Dim myGraphicObject As Graphics = Me.CreateGraphics
' Create an empty Bitmap Object
[Code].....
is there a difference between VB 2005 and VB 2008 that would be causing the errors? or am I missing something subtle maybe mistyped?
