I am trying to count the number of times a specific character is in a string. The problem is when I run the program the letter doesn't advance from "d" in the string "debugging" and doesn't display the number of time the character "g" is found.
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

How can I count the amount of times a character appears in a string?
The assignment is to create a program with 2 text boxes, label, and a button. We then need to type a phrase into the first text box, and a character in the second. Then click the button and then the label will display the output of how many times the character in the second text box appears in the first.
I have all the above setup except for how to display the amount of times the character appears in the first text box, here's a picture:
I have an SQL database with a single table with several colunmns. I want to count how many times a certain number appears in one of the columns. E.g. I have the following:
A B C
8 4 6
0 9 3
1 4 6
4 7 1
I want to count the number of times 4 is used in column B. I have looked at using the following, but not sure if this is even the right approach:
Dim db as New MainTblDataSet
Dim BCount = Aggregate B In db.MainTbl Into Count(B.B = num)
where num=the number I am counting the instances of (4 in this case).
The hope is that BCount will equal 2, but it returns 0 every time.

i have a datagridview linked to a access DB that right now looks in the 5th column and counts the number of "c","o" (completed and open) but it gets the count from the entire data base. I am able to filter the ones for a certain day and view them on the grid but how to count the number of occurrences that are visible and not the ones that have been filtered out?

How do I count the number of times that a string appears in another string. I know this code:
If odocument.ToString.Contains("window.alert") Then
pops = pops + 1
End If
But that will just see if the desired string contains "window.Alert" once, rather than how many times it does contain it.
input = "my mother is a great lady" output = A -3, B - 0, C - 0, D - 1, E - 2
I wanted to count the number of times letter A - E is in the input string.
How do I check to see if the first character of a string is a number in VB.NET? I know that the Java way of doing it is:
char c = string.charAt(0);
isDigit = (c >= '0' && c <= '9');
what is the vb.net equivalent to vb6 String(number,character?
View 3 RepliesI'm scanning through all characters in a textbox. Then the program counts how many of each character is in the textbox. Here's the code which adds all characters to a list:
For each c as char in TxtBox
list.add(c)
Next
Everything's working fine, except this will also add returns to the list, which I don't want. I thought I could write like this:
If c <> chr(10) Then
list.add(c)
End If
We have a customer, who prints a large number of a batch job to a reporting service. When printing large batches of jobs, occasionally he would get a WebException from reporting services saying "The underlying connection was closed".What is the work around for this? Somebody added this portion in the code [code]It doesn't seem to fix the issue though. The customer still notices the Web Exception when she prints a large job to reporting service.

View 3 RepliesI have this program generating a firstname and lastname from a file. When I run this program I enter information in three textboxes. The first two are the salary low and high(salary1.text, salary2.text) and the last one is the number of "copies"(copies.text) that I want.. When I put a number such as 10 in the text box it outputs some of the same names. The firstname file has around 100 records and the lastname file has about 1000 records Why is it generating the same name The problem is even worse if I do something like 1000 copies.. it outputs the same thing 8 times and then does something different another 8 times

An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in System.Data.dllAdditional information: Input string was not in a correct format.Couldn't store <AH25> in ProductCode Column. Expected type is Int32.

Do Until record = TAProduct.GetData().Count

It only seems to work if the first column is an integer datatype, which is the case for my other tables, but the table which I am currently dealing with using a string datatype. Is there another way to count the number of rows without using SQL statements or can I adapt my existing code in some way?
I have a datatable that stores information on employees. What i'm trying to do is use it to run a seniority list looping through the table using the current system date.

but i get an error that it cannot be converted to date.

For each character of this string I want a new character out of the string and then remove the character from the list of characters that still maybe used for other characters. It may not get the same character, you could basically just call this encryption, but it's not what I am making. I don't want to waste my time doing this one hour while VB can do this for me in <1 second.
I am writing a hangman type game and I am displaying the word to the user in a label as all *'s, but I cannot figure out how to have just one of the *'s changed in the label to the correct letter when the user inputs the correct letter into the text box and clicks the check letter button.Everything else in the program works perfectly, except for this part.[code]When I use the .Replace it changes all of the *'s to the correct selected letter.
View 2 RepliesI have an application where event driven events are already detected. Each time an even is detected I increment a counter.I would like to add the following functionality:
1.) I would like to create a time stamp each time an event is detected and store them in some kind of data structure.
2.) I would like to count how many events are being stored (or in essence count how many events have occurred in the past 10 seconds, not once but continuously).
3.) I would then like to discard of any events older than 10 seconds note events are interrupt driven and can occur more frequently than once a second, but updating my count of how many events have occurred in the past 10 seconds can be done as infrequently as say once a second.
there are any nifty in-built .net methods that can essentially return either the number of occurrences of each element in an array, or simply return the modal value.
