i am converting a string to double?i would like to know in advanced whether it would case an error to convert a string to a double. for example if i try to convert "hello" to a double, it would give me an error. is there a way for me to know ahead of time whether converting something will cause an error?
View 2 RepliesI was trying to convert from Double to String and everything working fine. But when I tried some bigger number with fractions in it. I got the number but rounded. I tried something like that:
Dim dd As Double = 1235212435.3453636
Dim str As String = dd
MsgBox(str)
But what I got is 1235212435.34536 instead of 1235212435.3453636

I want to convert an array of numbers to a string with a colon imbetween splitting it. I tried:
StringA = Join(Array(), ":")
I get the error: 'Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array.'I seem to get this error alot in my programming but don't exactly know what causes it. Even if I can fix this error I heard that Join only works for string arrays so this wouldn't work anyway.
I'm new to VB, I'm now want to know how to convert received string to double.I'm receiving string as 420.8 280.9 140.2 like this from serial port.. and transferred it into textbox..I'm using following code to split string and to convert to double

The only post I can find on this matter is one that coverts the double to a decimal before converting it into a string. However the numbers I'm using are far larger than what a decimal can store.
Example: 1/(16^10)
So how can I convert the solution to the problem above. Which equals 0.00000000000090949470177292824, to a string value that is exactly as it's shown?
Cause when I convert this to a decimal I still end up with a string in scientific notation..
I'm trying to delete the 2 last characters of a string if they are "||". This is my
Dim MyReader As Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser
MyReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFieldParser(playlist)
Dim TextFields As String() = MyReader.ReadFields()
Dim last As String = TextFields.Last
If last.Substring(last - 2) = "||" Then
last.Remove(last - 2)
End If
But it gave me the following error on the highlighted line:
"The converting from the string to the type Double is not valid."

It also checks if the frog can land in the text box above the button pressed, if there is another frog there a message box will pop up saying sorry space is filled other wise the frog should land there.

just hoping that someone may be able to assist me to convert system.array to double() array.
Declarations are as follows:
Private f_Data As System.Array
Private f_Measures() As Double
Private f_NumberOfObservations As Integer
I then 'fill' f_Data from a range in an Excel worksheet as follows:
f_Data = wsXLSData.Range(wsXLSData.Cells(1,1), wsXLSData.Cells(8, 1)).Value
This seems to work OK. Upon checking f_Data is indeed filled with 8 double type numbers.
I then try to convert this system.array to a double array as follows:
For i As Integer = 0 To f_NumberOfObservations - 1
f_Measures(i) = f_Data(i + 1, 1).value
Next
I then get an error pointing to the line ' f_Measures(i) = f_Data(i + 1, 1).value' of type MissingMemberException was unhandled by user code'
I make a query in coding. But I got conversion error.My query is below

Exception error is like

Actually, in my report, i wanna show if it's zero then '-'. If i set it in this string.I got another error like below The provider could not determine the Decimal value. For example, the row was just created, the default for the Decimal column was not available, and the consumer had not yet set a new Decimal value.

If Double.Parse(list_numbers.Item(i), possibledouble)
list_numbers is a list of strings
list_numbers.Item(i) = "0.000"
possibledouble is a double
debugger returns "input string was not in a correct format"
i thought that the double parse would convert the string into a double format of "0.0" but it gives me an error.
I'm reading Lat + Lng coordinates form my database. I need to convert them to double. This is what happens:

I want to convert the string value "13.3939" into a Double yet when I tried Convert.ToDouble("13.3939"), Double.Parse("13.3939") and CDbl("13.3939") they all returned 133939.0. Does anyone know how to do this properly?
View 1 RepliesIs there an efficient method in VB to check if a string can be converted to a double?I'm currently doing this by trying to convert the string to a double and then seeing if it throws an exception. But this seems to be slowing down my application.

As I compare the DSO with the DSO para, it seems doesn't compare both data at all. I have been converting the DSO as double first between comparing it as if i compare with string it doesn't work.

I have a problem that seems trivial. In an argument to an activity I need to supply a path.
This is done by this code:
String.Format("a
-bd -y -tzip {0} {1}* -r",
Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory,
"output.zip"),
BinariesDirectory)
However, the directories parameters contain spaces so they have to have quotes around them. I tried with single quote ' that works fine to put in the string, but the command shell executing the command ignores these. So it has to be double quote "
I have tried all methods I have fount on the Internet, for example to have a backslash before the double quote and to have three double quotes, but nothing seems to work. I get a compiler error as below.
Error 4 Compiler error(s) encountered processing expression "String.Format("a -bd -y -tzip "{0}" '{1}*' -r", Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory, "output.zip"), BinariesDirectory)".Comma, ')', or a valid expression continuation expected.
I created an application in vb.net 2005.It works fine on my machine. I tested several different test machines and all were working fine. As for the client, it's generating an error. My application reads from an excel sheet and imports the values to an oracle database. the error being generated is: "conversion from type string to type double is not valid". Why is it generating on on the client's computer and not mine?

I'm trying to match on some inconsistently formatted HTML and need to strip out some double quotes.
Current:
<input type="hidden">
The Goal:
<input type=hidden>
This is wrong because I'm not escaping it properly:
s = s.Replace(""","");
This is wrong because there is not blank character character (to my knowledge):
s = s.Replace('"', '');
What is syntax / escape character combination for replacing double quotes with an empty string?

How do I get around this? What I am trying to do is, I really want to use TextBox's for input to enter numbers when the program is running and I also want a MsgBox to appear if an input is not entered because these numbers are important to a final formula further down.
