The following code allows words to be added to a listbox. Add the word to a text file and create a folder with the word as its name. The second part undoes the actions.If I try to delete the word immediately after adding it one of two things happen.
1.An error is reported stating the path cannot be found. Although the listbox index value is correct according to the code the error is pointing at that index +1.
2.The code continues to the point of requesting conformation to delete the folder, still pointing at the index value +1. I the action is confirmed the wrong folder is deleted.
However if I stop debugging, then run the code again all works correctly.Is it likely to persist when the application is compiled?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to take the amount entered in a text box and save that to a sql database in decimal format. The field in the table is set as decimal 7,2
The amount a user inputs is save to the table. However it rounds the decimal amount. eg. 10.55 saved as 11.00 & 10.45 saved as 10.00 I'm using visual studio 2010 and vb.net
myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("customer_contribution", Convert.ToDecimal(CType(Me.FormView1.FindControl("CustomerContributionTextbox"), TextBox).Text))
I've also tried it without the Decimal conversion and end up with the same results.
myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("customer_contribution", customer_contribution)

1) A string with a value as a date, which would be "10 January, 2011" for example: strDate1 would have the value of "10 January, 2011"
2) A start time, for example: strStartTime1 would have the value of 9:45
3) An end time, for example strEndTime1 would have the value of 18:00
