I am working on a mortgage payment calculator that has three user input textboxes (amount, interest, term). The interest input is a MaskedTextBox masked to (00.0). The issue I have is that if the MaskedTextBox is has no user input when the calculate button is selected then I get the error "FormatException was not handled" "Input string was not in the correct format", I highlighted the section in the code below. I'm quite positive the error stems from the MasketTextBox mask of 00.0, the decimal I believe causes the issue when no other data is entered.
After experimenting around with DevExpress controls and adding them to my form, Custom mask do not seem to work on the MaskedTextBox. If I place a custom mask and debug, I get a null reference exception.
It seems to be the maskedTextBox's mask property that is doing this. I have tried setting the mask through design and by code. However, neither way works.
My question is, is it possible to use a TextBox as a maskedTextbox? To be able to format it? I need the user to enter in hours, minutes, seconds like hh:mm:ss or 00:00:00.
Here's the error I get:
"NullReferenceException was unhandled. Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I am creating a WinForms application using VS.NET 2005, VB.NET, and SQL Server 2000. My problem is the MaskedTextBox control. I can successfully insert the value in an SQL Server table column as smalldate such as 3/17/2009, but it displays as 31/72/009.
I tried the following with no success:mskLastPayment.Text = Format(rdr!LastPayment).ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")mskLastPayment.Text = rdr!LastPayment.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")mskLastPayment.Text = CType(rdr!LastPayment.ToString(), DateTime).ToShortDateString
Does anyone know how to set the maskedtextbox to a currency format that actually works? I have set the mask to $999,999.00 but the user input looks like this 120,0 instead of this 12.00. It seems like the maskedtextbox would be able to handle this type of input without using the keypress events to alter the text.
For two days I have been looking for a way to enable button when MaskedTextBox is completed but no luck.The button does get enabled but not until you type(hit) a key after all characters(numbers) have been entered.To work around this, I adding two different events for the MaskedTextBox like the example below.
Private Sub MaskedTextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MaskedTextBox1.TextChanged 'If MaskedTextBox1.MaskCompleted Then
My code is not working it highlights this intHoursWorked = Convert.ToInt32(strHoursWorked) when i run the program and says 'format exception was unhandled' ? Someone said to just initialize the value of lblleftoverminttl ,txtttlminworked, intHourlyPayRate but im not sure what that means?
Here is the rest of my code:
Public Class Form1 ' Weekly pay for an hourly employee
Private Sub btnWeeklyPay_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
im calculating fare amount from 2 masktextbox mtxA and mtxB, i use the format 0000.00 ,, i was able to convert all prompt char values from mtxA and turned them into really zero but however it doesnt do the same on mtxb, though ive used similar code.. so my flow should be: whatever i values i put on mtxA.. on its textchange,its current value should be also put to mtxB plus an additional of 200.00
as an example : if i put on mtxA = 0030.00 mtxB = 0230.00 should be the display
but what is shows on me is mtxB = 2300.00 and also if i save it on the database .00 is not added,.....im tired fixing this so i try to use textbox instead of maskdtextbox, what i did is put lots of conditions and function on keypress to have the same format 0000.00 but i failed because everything on my code mess up whenever the user tried to edit the text according to textbox current position..check textbox.text current length from 0 to before the cursor location...but i dont know what code i should use to get the length..
This May sound strange but I have about 10 Visual Basic book, including two references that don't explain this property. It is mentioned but there are not examples as to how to use it.
I just came across this property MaskCompleted but I am not sure how to apply it so that MaskedTextBoxes are not left empty or a message is generated.
GPA 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 through 4.0 alredy entered in a listbox in propertiesradFemale, radMale, btnCalc btnExit: lblMale, lblFemale, lblAll to store averages. There are no text boxes.Please look at my code and tell me what I'm missing.... I'm sure it has something to do with the listbox...

I posted this in the wrong part of the forums. Using visual basic 2008 and keep geting this message whenever I try and test this calculator program I've been mucking around with for the past 2 hours.
I'm doing a simple calculator program calculating Pennies, Nickels, Dimes and Quarters. I made a Try-Catch statement so that if the user enters letters into the text boxes, they get an error message. However, if the user leaves one field blank, the error message still pops up. What's the code so that I can get Visual Basic to recognize that an empty field is the same as 0 so that that message doesn't pop up? [Code]. What do I need to add to it to get that Error Message to stop showing when the user doesn't enter a value into one of the text boxes?
I'm having an issue trying to get a wage calculator to recognize an overtime formula. The calculator has to have the overall function of figuring the gross pay, Federal Tax Withheld (15%), and the net pay based on the hourly wage and hours worked for the week. The issue I am having is the wage * 1.5 entry (underlined) where it sates it is not an array or a method and cannot have an argument list. If anyone can take a look at this for me and guide me as to why this error keeps coming up and what I can do to make sure it doesn
I have written the below code for a payroll calculator. When I run the program, it gives me my own error message box no matter if my number of hours fall within the 5-60 hours range as I have stipulated. Is there something wrong with my code? (well, obviously there is something wrong--I just cant find it!)
CODE:
'This program calculates the Gross and Net Pay as well as the Tax Deduction amount of an employee's wages when given the input of Employee Name, Tax Rate, Hours Worked, and Hourly Pay Rate.
I am getting two errors for "expression is not an array or method, and cannot have an argument list," When debugging, the formula works quite well. However I will lose points for blue squiggly lines. I am not allowed to use any built in functions like math.
When i upgrading visual basic 6.0 code to VB2008 by the tool of visual studioïTool->upgrade visual basic 6 code, an error arose.The following is the error message: "File I/O error:the given path's format is not support. Delete _vbsnipup directory and try again."
I get this error when I run the application Incorrect syntax near 12, on debugging I found that this error is caused due to the # along with the date. Dim backdate as datetime backdate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1)
on binding the data to the grid to filter the backdate records this error is caused Incorrect syntax near 12.
myqry = " select SRNO,SUBJECT,ID where datesend =" backdate Now i am trying to extract only the date or shall I divide the date into day , month and year with DATEPART and take into a variable or convert the date or what should i do
Dim E_ID As Integer E_ID = Convert.ToInt16(Request.QueryString("ID"))
But when it executes, I always get a FormatException:
error: Input string was not in a correct format.
What could be causing this?i am sending value like this.

Ok so i have a date time picker that holds a date that was entered by a user. My program works fine when ran on a computer using English(US) regional settings, but when i take it to a computer running any other regional settings, I.E. English(UK), which is the 2nd most common regional settings that will find its way to this program, I recieve an error because the Date format is backwards. What i'm curious about is how can i grab the system Regional Date format in order to rearrange my Date to fix its context?
I know that since the date is stored as a string i'm going to do something along the lines of this to break it apart:
