Converting Time Formats Displaying In Label On Screen

Sep 24, 2009

I have a variable which I called ElapsedTime. I press a button and it displays the time in seconds since clicking the button, into a label . I did it with HTML
Private Sub Timer2_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer2.Tick
LblElapsedTime1.Text = ElapsedTime
ElapsedTime = ElapsedTime + 1
End Sub
Private Sub BtnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnStart.Click
Timer2.Enabled = True
End Sub
This updates every second a bit like a simple stop watch. Great so far, because I do need the elapsed time (in seconds) for later use in my app. However, whilst elapsed time is being displayed in this label on the screen I want it to be shown in HH:MM:SS format. How can I convert it into a new variable " ElapsedTime2 " so that I can show it in the desired format yet still retain my original " ElapsedTime " variable for later.

VS 2010 Converting Keys To/from Different Formats?

Aug 3, 2011

I have a lot of keyboard keys stored in different formats. For example, "Up" may be stored as a string, as a decimal (200) or as hex (C8). I need to convert all of this different representations to strings so they can be easily understood by the user, and then back again when I save them.When I capture the key press using the KeyDown event, I can grab the decimal value from KeyEventArgs.KeyCode, which can easily be converted to hex if needed.

Tip OleDbException On Regional Date/time Formats?

Feb 4, 2010

Using OLE and Jet, you may receive errors when saving system dates and times to databases in different regions.Consider what happens when saving dates and times returned using the Now() function in Canada or the US: the date string "#2010/02/03 08:59 AM#" will save fine. If using 24 hour time, the string "#2010/02/03 08:59#" will also save fine.

If you change your system region to Spanish (Peru) or Spanish (Mexico), the ante meridiem changes from "AM" to "a.m." (or "p.m."). The date string becomes: "#2010/02/03 08:59 a.m.#"Note that this will NOT save correctly to the database and throw a System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException. The workaround we use is: Public Function clean_date(ByVal strDate As String) As String Dim str_buffer As String

Formatting Excel - If I Try Using Style.numberformat With The Date And Time Formats, They Don't Change And Are Entered As If Didn't Change The Format?

Mar 11, 2011

I am throwing some data out into Excel and am having some formatting troubles. I have 5 columns (date, time, a long number I don't want displayed in scientific notation - text is fine, text, text). I can get it all working with numberformat, however I have to do them different ways.

Date works this way cell.numberformat = "m/d/yy" and it formats it to say 3/1/11

Time works this way cell.numberformat = "h:mm AM/PM" and it formats it to say 8:07 AM

For the long number cell.numberformat = "@" and it doesn't change the format and it gets displayed in scientific notation

BUT if I use cell.style.numberformat = "@" it works as it should, but it messes up all of the date and time cells. Apparently when you use style.numberformat, it doesn't just apply to the cell you're working with. If I try using style.numberformat with the date and time formats, they don't change and are entered as if I didn't change the format at all.

Displaying Form With WMP Control On Another Screen?

Jun 11, 2011

I am writing a program to control light and sound for a show I'm working on.
The program has buttons and stuff controlling music and sound effects but I am at a loss as to how to get the video part to work.

My computer is hooked up to a projector in extended desktop mode. (I can't change that, otherwise my control panel would show up on the big screen.

I need the video to display on Screen 2 (the projector), so I made a form and used this code:

Dim screen As Screen
screen = screen.AllScreens(1) 'the array is 0 based
Form2.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual
Form2.Location = screen.Bounds.Location + New Point(0, 0)
Form2.ShowDialog()

to display it when I press a button. This worked fine, I set form2's border to none and fullscreened it, tested again, no probs. My problem arose when I tried to add a WMP ActiveX control. I ran the program, pressed the button, and... form2 (along with WMP) appeared on my laptop display. I desperately need this by tomorrow. If no solution is available, is there an alternative to WMP?

Displaying Text To Center Of Screen

I know i've made a few posts previously on this, but none have fully worked. I now have my program doing everything I need it to do, except having the ability to display the text to the centre of the screen. It needs to be able to perform the same functionality it does on the form but without the form being there (e.g. the letter disappearing after being pressed)

Converting Signature Display On Screen To BMP Or JPG

May 26, 2009

I am working on a project where I have a signature displayed on the screen that is drawn via code based on data that has been transmitted from another device. This is from one of the samples from MS. The signature displays on screen just fine but I need to convert this to a bmp or jpg so I can save it to disk and/or print it on a report.

Code:
PrivateSub DrawSignature(ByVal g As Graphics)
' background
g.Clear(Color.Cornsilk)
' border
g.DrawRectangle(Pens.Gray, 0, 0, pictSignature.Width - 1, pictSignature.Height - 1)
' return if don't have a signature
[Code] .....

I have tried creating a new bitmap from the image property of pictSignature but it is empty even though it has an image displayed on screen. This is the first time I have tried to work with this type of coding and am totally at a loss as to what I need to do to get a bitmap from the data.

Displaying All The Users Guesses On The Label?

I've managed to create my game which is working fine. woop woop... (quite an accomplishment for me I must say :-)) My problem now however, is displaying all the users guesses on the label. My code looks at the users guesses and a simple message box tells the user if the guess is higher of lower than the random number generated. I'm simply stuck as to how I am able to retain each guess, and the corresponding result via message box, which will then display via the label.

Converting Time To Different Time Zones?

Feb 20, 2011

I have trying to complete an assignment where I have to convert a string from user input to all different US time zones and then display them. At first I tried doing this just by using math but it seemed extremely inefficient and messy so I was told to use the DateTime function which seems easier with the exception of one thing - I have found absolutely no examples of converting time to different time zones. I was able to take the string and convert it to UTC time thinking it would make it easier but now I don't know how to convert them to PST, EST, MST, or CST. I included the function below:

Private Sub timeDifference()
Dim meridiem As String
Dim ante As String = " AM"[code].....

Asp.net - Converting Decimal In A Label To An Integer?

Mar 28, 2011

Currently using VS2008, VB.NET, SQL.

I have a FormView from a Data Source that is getting some fields that are stored as Decimals in the SQL Database.

I am grabbing the field from the FormView as such:

Dim AvgTicketL As Label = CType(frmMerchantProfile.FindControl("F10Label"), Label)

I need to take this value, and convert it to an Integer, then send it along to an API. I have the API Calls done, tested and working, but I'm getting an error as when it is getting this value, the API is returning "Must be an Integer" error.

What I have tried so far:

Dim AvgTicketL As Label = CType(frmMerchantProfile.FindControl("F10Label"), Label)
Dim AvgTicket1 As Integer
AvgTicket1 = Double.Parse(AvgTicket.Text)
Do something with AvgTicket1

I have also attempted to Round the Value, then convert it and call it - no luck.

Checking the value of AvgTicket1 (Writing it out to a Label or Response.Write) shows "100", where the database value was 100.00. But the API is still getting 100.00, apparently. Any other conversion method that I've attempted states errors that the Label cannot be converted to Integer.

What are some methods I can successfully convert this value to an integer from a label?

Dynamically Created Label Data Not Displaying?

May 26, 2010

I'm programatically creating labels in programatically-created panels, and have run into an issue--the label's information isn't completely showing! COnsistently only the first few characters are consistently displayed. I've tried bringtofront, but it doesn't work at all. And the characters stop well short of the panel barrier--does anyone know what to do about this? I used messagebox.show(labelname.text) to make sure it wasn't working properly, and sure enough all the characters I want are in the label, but aren't appearing.

Keypress Event - Displaying Images In Label

Mar 28, 2010

I need to display images when I press a key on the keyboard. I have a form with a textbox and a label on it. When I type a letter in the textbox it appears on the label. I got that part to work. But now I want to display a image in the label when I press a key on the keyboard. I have found some images on the internet that I want to display when I press a key on the keyboard. For example when I type the letter A in the textbox instead of A appearing I want an image of an apple to appear, or if I type the letter B a banana would appear, or if I type the letter D a dog would appear. I have been searching on how to this I came across the keyboard event such as the keypress event. Can I use a keypress event of the textbox to do this. Can I assign a certain image to a certain key on the keyboard, and have that image display whenever I press that key.

VS 2008 Storing Information To An Array Or ArrayList And Displaying Each Item In Label?

Apr 22, 2010

I have a list of names in a database and what i want is to get all of these names and display them in a label or a text box to the user on the website. I have tried to do this using a for loop but it is always overwriting the label each time. I have a list of 10 different names in the database and what it is doing is putting the first name in the label and then overwriting this with the second name and so on until it reaches the last name. I think i need to store each of the names from the database into an array or an arrayList and then make the label display all of the contents from the array or arrayList. The for loop i have used for this is:

Dim g As SQLadmin = New SQLadmin()
g.DB("SELECT nameOfPerson FROM Persons")
For i As Integer = 0 To g.array.GetLength(0) - 1

[code]....

i can select the names from the database and store them in an array then make the label display each of the names.
