Our CRM 2011 database contains approx. 20000 contacts, and I need to loop through all of them using the SDK. Currently I'm finding the following linq query takes a very long time to execute:

I'm essentially re-learning VB for the first time in 15 years to try and accomplish this task - I have a project to do for work which involves taking .doc files which contain hundreds and hundreds of names, addresses, e-mail addresses, and amounts they donated to the non-profit I work at, and inserting them into Outlook's contacts. I'm trying to piece together the bit I've figured out about Outlook/VB integration to do so, but unfortunately, most of the information I can find is the other way around - getting info FROM Outlook and inserting it elsewhere.
The doc file is essentially formatted like this:
FirstName LastName
423815 Central Park West
FirstNameLastName@Somthing.com
$3000.00
And repeat.
So for the email addresses, I obviously need to look for the @ and copy from the previous space or line break to the next - that's the theoretically easy part, along with the money donated, since I can similarly look for the $. The part that I forsee stumping me is, how to discern first and last name, and treat them accordingly, entering them into the right fields in Outlook? Same with the address.
Is there anyway to create a a Contact List using ListView?
Like Textbox1 is the first column
Textbox2 is second column and so on?
Then it will add when you click a button?
I have a datetime datatype field in mssql2005 database ...
which retrieves the date in gridview as .. 4/7/2011 12:00:00 AM
but i want it retrieve date as 7-Apr-2011
For some reason vb keeps changing my dates format and removes the 0s at first this wasnt a problem but it really messes up my sorting in my gridview.
Dim aftersubtraction As Date
aftersubtraction = departuredate.AddDays(-dates1.Text)
dates.Add(aftersubtraction.AddDays(-gracep.Text))
I'm getting System.NullReferenceException error when I try to add the employee info to the Employees list.

Dim dateRead As Date
intRead = CInt(txtReading.Text)
dateRead = txtDateTime.Value comes from a date/time picker
txtTest.Text = dateRead

lstListView is just a standard lstbox. Have no idea why this is happening or how to fix it. I can post the rest of the code if needed.
I've searched and searched for an answer to my question, but as of yet, have yet to find a solution to what I'm looking for. My background - 6 months out of College (Computer Studies)
Right now I'm working on a program that is going to be used to handle database information (Access 2007). On the main form the user can select 3 pieces of required info from drop down list boxes. Those are required. Then after that they are able to enter a first name and a second name. They then add that name to a list box below. They can add as many names as they want to a list box. Then from there they have the option to either just save the info, or if required (which will more then likely be the main option) print each person in the list their own certificate. I have designed a separate form laid out the way required for the certificate.
The trouble that I'm having at this time is that I am unable to make the printing process show all of the certs that are going to print in a print preview. I have been able to get it to only show one. The form is set to load where hidden = true.
I want to make a ToDo list with extra info, like this:
Activity1
- Place
- Start time
[Code]....
I want to be able to show and hide the 'place, start time, end time, etc' with a button. I thaught it might be usefull to use Treeview for this, but how do I use Treeview? I got textboxes for activity and place and etc., datetimepicker for start and end date/time. how to use treeviewer for this?
For a class project I am supposed to search through the attached file, and write to a new file the years between 1789 and 2009 that are not present in the fifth field. What is my best bet for determining what years are not present?
[Code]...
Should I make an array of integer between 1789 and 2009, then search for every year in the file, then set a flag to false if not found; is there a simpler way to accomplish this using LINQ?
I have a table being imported into my VB application that has 3 columns. I have written code to import the table, and have written code to display on the first column (country) in a list view.
What I want to do now is have the user select / highlight an item in the list view, and have the third column (currency) related to that selected country appear in a text box when a button is clicked.
Here's the code I've written that successfully imports the data and displays the first column:
Private Sub frmCountry_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim dataCountry As New DataTable()
[Code]...
Should I perhaps use something other than a list view?
So I have a program that is supposed to support a small business. I have the work completed and the professor said it was correct but I wanted to go do a little extra.Basically, on the Order screen, you begin to type the name of a customer/supplier/employee into a text box and a list of names that fit the criteria pops up in a list box (lbMatchingAccounts). When you select it, you can hit enter new order and be transported to the Order Details screen to enter the new order.
What I wanted to do was to create a new list box (lbOrderId). What I want is to be able to select a person from lbMatchingAccounts and have all their Orders populate in lbOrderId.

Okay I'm making a song organizer and I have a program that will load the files in a folder into a box and display the songs info into a list view. That part works fine but when you click the button to make it do anything it will get the variables that it need from the tags on the cells for each song but for some reason the one for the Album just disappears... I tried having it just show the value in a message box and it works fine. Just when I try to combine it with another variable then it wont show at all. Heres my code

I'm making a database app. I've finish the search, add new, and add function. What I'm trying to do is to expand the functionality of the add new item function.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to do is fill out a form with certain info, put the info into an array, and write it to a listbox using loops, arrays, and maybe a function if I need one. This is for VB2010 and here is what I have so far... I think there are ways to make it shorter but I cannot figure it out.... maybe just brain dead from all the coffee I have been drinking!

I've tried applying several suggestions found on the web, but still experiencing cached results when querying CRM 2011 with linq. My web.config reads as follows, which is supposed to disable result caching:[code]I can live with that, but it would be nicer, instead of recreating the context, to have a way of ensuring no caching either in code or in web.config.
View 2 RepliesSo I have a Powerpoint presentation. It contains numerous images on it, referred to by image X. (So it's the same image but on multiple pages) These same images on different pages/slides have different width/height attributes associated to them. So even though they're the same image, they may not be the same size.
So there exists a scenario where an image exists on a lot of the slides. I want the ability to replace all of them at the same time (quickly) without having to go through each slide and separately replacing X, one at a time with the new image.
Is this possible? (yes/no)How would this be accomplished? (abstract - high level explanation is only required)
