I'm putting a feature into my program that allows a user to type a web address into a text box. If there is nothing in the text box and the user hits go, nothing happens. If it is in an incorrect formatmy program will change it to the correct format,me code:
' Create a request for the URL.
Dim request As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(HttpStatus1 & tstbUrl.Text)
' If required by the server, set the credentials.

Here is the problem, I have an Access form and a textbox for an e-mail address. The email address is not required, I only want to check for a valid email address when a value or address has been entered into the e-mail filed. Example: If e-mail is not empty or if email field has a value, then check for the follow elements, matched the email address with the required format. If the e-mail field is empty, do not look for anything, move on.

Basically, I have a list of dates in a SQL table with some statistics next to each of them. I want to compare the dates in the table with a certain date I choose. However, my dates in my table are stored as Varchar(50) (and have to be). Apparently I can convert the date in the table into date type but I don't know. Does anyone know how? My current code can be seen below.

I have a form which contains a checkbox field. On page load I want to create a separate checkbox for each customer in my Database. The code I have to create the checkboxes for each customer works fine. However, I also want to check in the database if the customer is set to unauthorized if they are then I want to check there box. I also have code for the case where the user checks a box. If a box is checked I update the database setting the unauthorized attribute to true. My problem is when I check a box it works fine and the box is checked, however if I reload the page all the boxes are unchecked. So either my database update is not updating the database or the way I check on page load for checked boxes is incorrect. Any ideas?
The code for the asp checkbox field:
<asp:CheckBoxList id="check1" AutoPostBack="True" TextAlign="Right" OnSelectedIndexChanged="Check" runat="server">
</asp:CheckBoxList>
The Code for the page load:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim sql As String = "SELECT Name, unauthorized, ID FROM Customer ORDER BY Name"
Dim dt As DataTable = db.execDataTableQuery(sql, "Customer")

I am trying to check whether a row is getting inserted into my database. It is throwing an error even when it does insert (it's a database issue that will get resolved later when I get a newer version of Microsoft Access), so I can't check whether the insert is successful based on whether there's an error or not. I think I need to check the AffectedRows of something, but I'm not sure what. I've been looking for info on how to do this but I can't figure out how to make it work for my exact situation. Here's a general idea of what my code looks like:
Protected Sub Wizard1_FinishButtonClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.WizardNavigationEventArgs) Handles Wizard1.FinishButtonClick
[Code]...
But the numInserted is coming out as 0 every time even though the insert is successful. It may have to do with the fact that myIns1.ExecuteNonQuery() throws an error even though the insert is successful.
-EDIT- I discovered that the "duplicate values" error is because it is somehow attempting to insert the record twice. I have no idea why it's doing that though.

I am trying to figure out how to check a string can contain a certain value.In the begining I had a checkbox and wanted to hide a ceratin field depending upon which checkboxes were selected.The problem with this is that the value is always = to the first value.
I got around this by writing these values into a hidden textBox and using a loop.So now I have a textbox and if the user selected the 1st and 3rd choice the textBox would = "AC" If they selected all choices it would = ABCD etc...How can I determine if the values in my textBox contains just letter 'B' ?
I tried this:
--------------------------
Dim values As String = [String].Empty

If item.Selected Then

I would like to be able to check (maybe via a boolean value or something) that this result returned a query. I'm using VB.net.
I've been wondering how to do that for a while. (I never really needed it so far ). I wanna make e.g. a simple alarm script (waits for 6.30 am and makes a beep). The only way I could think of it is make a loop in the main function which loops until 8 hours later. Is there any other, more civilized way (probably event?)

View 6 RepliesIn my application i have set a reference to an activeX component that has been written in vb6(that's not important) What i have done is Here (woo my first hyperlink i hope it works lol) But this is neither here nor there, what i would like to do is put a check to see if the object that has been assigned the activeX component has been assigned it. What i can think of is:If myObject Is Not Nothing Then'set some other stuff End If
The only trouble is, obviously i have an error. Over the Not Nothing I have the following error: 'Is' requires operands that have reference types, but this operand has the value type 'Integer'.Is the type 'Integer' at the end there refering to the Nothing being an integer -1 or 0 and i'm not sure how i would reference the type active x.my question: How can i check if the activeX component is an activeX component and not a whisp of thin air/nothing.
I am trying to make a form that is connected to all my systems at work, this form will not be doing much, it will have an image representing each system, all I want the application to do is if one system is down, the image will turn into red, and if its up, it should be green, to be more clearly and make it simpler, I want it to be linked to more than one destination, each time one link goes down, its image changes to red, and that it. But the problem here is i dont know where to start from, specially that I don't know how to link and get a true or false for the connection!
View 3 RepliesThe following piece of code executes a SELECT query and places the result into a textbox, but if the query returns nothing an error appears saying that there is no value and it won't continue the lines of code after it.

How would I change the code so that it checks the query to see if it returns a result? I'm still not too sure what the SqlDataReader can do fully, so I'm not sure if it can check for a result.
what the following code is ment to do is generate a bunch of numbers between 1 and 49 using the while loop to check if two of these numbers are the same. Problem is two numbers are still being generated the same and I know that the numbers generated again will not match them originals so it stops the loop.

I've got a heavily used web application that, for the first time in 2 years, failed doing an equality check on two doubles using the equality function a colleague said he'd also been using for years. The goal of the function I'm about to paste in here is to compare two double values to 4 digits of precision and return the comparison results. For the sake of illustration, my values are:
Dim double1 As Double = 0.14625000000000002 ' The result of a calculation
Dim double2 As Double = 0.14625 ' A value that was looked up in a DB
If I pass them into this function:
Public Shared Function AreEqual(ByVal double1 As Double, ByVal double2 As Double) As Boolean
Return (CType(double1 * 10000, Long) = CType(double2 * 10000, Long))
End Function
the comparison fails. After the multiplication and cast to Long, the comparison ends up being:
Return 1463 = 1462
I'm kind of answering my own question here, but I can see that double1 is within the precision of a double (17 digits) and the cast is working correctly. My first real question is: If I change the line above to the following, why does it work correctly (returns True)?
Return (CType(CType(double1, Decimal) * 10000, Long) = _
CType(CType(double2, Decimal) * 10000, Long))
Doesn't Decimal have even more precision, thus the cast to Long should still be 1463, and the comparison return False? I think I'm having a brain fart on this stuff...Secondly, if one were to change this function to make the comparison I'm looking for more accurate or less error prone, would you recommend changing it to something much simpler? For example:
Return (Math.Abs(double1 - double2) < 0.0001)
Would I be to try something like:
Return (double1.ToString("N5").Equals(double2.ToString("N5")))
