Converting String Back To Array For Accessing Individual Elements
Aug 9, 2011
I have the following function,
Dim results() As Object = Me.Invoke("webdirect", New Object() {Company, LocationCode, CustomerNumber, OrderNumber, OrderRef, OrderDate, WebLines})
o_Company = CType(results(1),System.Nullable(Of Integer))
o_LocationCode = CType(results(2),String)
o_CustomerNumber = CType(results(3),String)
[Code] .....
So the return type of this function is a string, but I would like to get it back to its original form so I can access the individual sections i.e. o_LocationCode,o_CustomerNumber, etc how can I do that ?
Entire functions looks like this
Public Function webdirect(<System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute(IsNullable:=true)> ByVal Company As System.Nullable(Of Integer), <System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute(IsNullable:=true)> ByVal LocationCode As String, <System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute(IsNullable:=true)> ByVal CustomerNumber As String,
[Code] .....
Called like this
Dim returnArray As String
returnArray = client.webdirect(10, "123", "123", "123", "147", "2011-11-1", webLinesArray, 10, "", "", "", "", "", webRespArray)
No errors on run time but the string seems to be just blank, thats why i was wondering how I convert the string back to the array so I can access the individual elements.

I have a string of bytes which I am reading from a microcontroller via a serial port which is as follows : 02 10 18 14 CB 73 43 D3 14 00 0D 00 09 00 1B 00 04 B8 3C 00 00 24 00 30 AB
I would like to write some code to place each the bytes into an array with each element of the array consisting of one byte each.

I'm trying to convert a large array to a string, and then back into the array again after sending it over a network connection. No problems with that, but to keep my string as small as possible, I want to convert each array element into a single byte. I know that each element is going to contain a number no bigger than 100, so there will be no problems keeping them all 1 byte long. Problem is, I can't find the correct conversion commands. I think I should use 'Chr' to convert them into a string, but I can't work out how to convert that back into a number at the other end.

I am looking for something that will convert a byte array to a string and back, anything in-build that does it as this method would:
To string:
vb
Dim b = ByteArrSerialize(Obj, Compress, EncryptKey)
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder
For Each item In b
sb.Append(Chr(item))
Next
To byte:
vb
Dim b(0 To Len(TheString) - 1) As Byte
Dim bCount As Long = 0
For Each item In TheString
b(bCount) = Asc(item)
bCount += 1
Next

I'm trying to write some of my own linear algebra methods, and I'd like them to work independent of the number of dimensions of the array. However, there doesn't seem to be any generic method, that I can see, for looking up a particular element in an array of arbitrary size. I mean I could write code to find the rank and then use (), (,), (,,), (,,,), etc, but that seems rather cumbersome.

I 've an ArrayList and to join all its elements with a separator in one string I m using...
Dim s As String = String.Join(",", TryCast(myArrayList.ToArray(GetType(String)), String()))
however, I would know if there is a smarter/shorter method to get the same result,or same code that looks better...

I am storing a value (represented as a string originally) like this -2345678901234.12345678912 - in a double variable. After storing, it is represented in an exponential format (with an e). How do i convert this exponential representation to the original(string) representation?

I've got the following simple code to convert Bytes to a Hex string :-
Code:
Shared Function BytesToHex(ByVal bytes() As Byte) As String
If bytes Is Nothing Then Return ""
Dim S As String = BitConverter.ToString(bytes)
[Code].....
The HexToBytes routine obviously can take a lot longer to complete than the BytesToHex routine and is noticeably slower when dealing with a lot of data. As I'm converting a lot of hex strings back to bytes, I wondered if there was a more efficient way of doing it without looping through the whole string as I am doing?

It's a list of computer systems, basically, that the user can purchase.I need to read this file, line-by-line, into an array. Let's call this array csvline().The first line of the text file would stored in csvline(0). Line two would be stored in csvline(1). And so on.(I've started with zero because that's where VB starts its arrays). A drop-down list would then enable the user to select 1, 2 or 3 (or however many lines/systems are stored in the file). Upon selecting a number - say, 1 - csvline(0) would be displayed inside a textbox (textbox1, let's say). If 2 was selected, csvline(1) would be displayed, and so on.
It's not the formatting I need help with, though; that's the easy part. I just need someone to help teach me how to read a CSV file line-by-line, putting each line into a string array - csvlines(count) - then increment count by one so that the next line is read into another slot.So far, I've been able to paste the numbers of each system into an combobox:
Using csvfileparser As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser _
("F:folderprogramnameprogramnameinDebugsystems.csv")
Dim csvalue As String()
[code].....
But this only selects individual values. I need to figure out how selecting one of these numbers in the combobox can trigger textbox1 to be appended with just that line (I can handle the formatting, using the string.format stuff). If I try to do this using csvalue = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I get the following error message:"Error 1 Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String'."If I then put it as an array, ie: csvalue() = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I then get a different error message:"Error 1 Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array.

I'm trying to do some validation testing in VB.NET. If Entity.WeekEndDate.ToString = String.Empty Then ErrorList.Add(New cValidationError("id", "Incorrect Week End Date"))
Where WeekEndDate is of type Date. When I originally build the object, how can I insert a value into WeekEndDate that will generate an empty string(ie. "") when converted from a Date to a String?

Working on a personal project.Originally had the file loaded had the program read a number and had trouble converting that number of total seconds into a TimeSpan.Finally got it working with a simple code, after COUNTLESS tried of different code.[code]Now I'm stuck converting that Timespan (in the DD:HH:MM:SS format) back to a integer of total seconds.Tried a bunch of codes I could think of but it was time that I had a fresh idea from other people.

but I am getting the following error "array initializer is missing 1 elements"The other line that I am having trouble with and getting the same error is control = (Control) mi.Invoke(this.Page, new object[2] { ucType, null });

Let's say I have regular string called tempstring, and I want to change a specific item in that string. Like if tempstring = ";1;2;3" and I want to change the "2" to "Baboon." Here's my best solution on how to do it:
vb
Tempstring = ";1;2;3"
'Datasplit tempstring
Dim datasplit As String() = Tempstring.Split(New Char() {";"c})
[Code]....
This works, however, it feels a little heavy. Is there an easier way to do this? Perhaps a way to directly replace datasplits without readding them all to another string one by one using a loop?

I have an access database with one table and 4 or 5 different fields.
All I need to do is be able to be able to use a loop to read the values in a specific row and column and store it in a variable (or array).
I don't need the code for the loop or anything, just the syntax for reading the value of a specific row and column in a table to a variable.

A brief about the foundation of the program: I have created a VB2010 Windows Form application that connects to a Microsoft Access database. A datagridview is used to show all the data of the database. Then, a filter is used to filter the dataview (the BindingSource actually) and show the filtered db's data.
Let's say this is how I filter my BindingSource:
MyBindingSource.Filter = " price > '110' "
This would cause the dataGridView to filter the data (correctly), and let's say 10 rows are now displayed. What I am trying to do now is to get the sum of the values of one column of these new data. For example each of the 10 rows have a 'price' column which contains a double value. I would need the sum of these *filtered* values.
I found on the Internet that I may be able to transform the BindingSource into a DataTable and I could, but now I don't know how to access the values inside this!

I am trying to do a conversion of a sting to an array name. I have a few arrays called "f2250", "f2255", "f2260" and so on. When a user enters say 2.50 into a textbox, the program needs to be able to reference the f2250 array. Now ive managed to sucessfully code the creation of the string ie "f2250(1)" (Ive added the (1) as a test to refrence an index). How can I use that string to now return the value that is in the array? Does the string need to be converted into something else?

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 am working on a mini project that requires me to take a 8 byte hex string that I received from the Serial Port and convert it into a Byte Array and display it on the screen.An example of the string that I receive is 01050001FFFF8FFB
I am currently using the System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(str) to help me achieve this. However I realised that if this does not support extended ASCII so whatever byte that is > 7F, I will not get the right value.My current code is as follows:
vb
Private Sub SerialPort1_DataReceived(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.IO.Ports.SerialDataReceivedEventArgs) Handles SerialPort1.DataReceived

Okay I am working on a Voice Recognition Application that has a chat bot in it. When voice is recognized it converts the recognized string into an array and checks if the first or last value of the array is either computer or the Bot's Name. However, I am still very new to VB.NET only been programming in it for a few days. (I know ASP and VBscript really well though) When it goes through the check I get an exception how do I fix this?
