I'm new in this forum, and I'm a very very very basic user of the VB. How can I create a list of strings? I'm trying to make a chat with a robot. I put 2 labels. And my code is:
Dim mylist As New List(Of String)
mylist = "hello", "bye"
If Not Label1.Text = mylist Then

Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?
View 2 RepliesHow would I create a list of elements in VB.NET, save it to a .dat file, and make Ruby re-create such list (as an array) with such elements (they will be strings, booleans and integers)?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a form that accepts names (or any strings) as input and stores them in a object. See attached form sample.Form Image:
Operations: ï Initially the NumericUpDown object on the form should be disabled.The user enters a value (string) in the textbox and clicks the Add button or presses the Enter key to activate that button.The application then stores that name in a List object, and displays the last entry in the Label underneath.The NumericUpDown should become enable after the first entry. The user should be able to move between all the values entered using NumericUpDown.
I am trying to create an application that will randomly select 14 "stations" (strings) from a list of 33. My thinking is that I have a for/next loop that randomly selects a number between 1,33 which is then inputted into an array (arrnumber) I then want those random numbers to then be used to call the Station name which is saved in the second array, and then for the selected stations to be populated into a listbox (potentially by storing those names selected in a new array?)
Various people have suggested either using a list (of t) instead of arrays, or a Dictionary(?) or perhaps even a database, though I am not all that confident with VB to be able to know where the best place to start with that is. So if anyone can offer any advice, pointers as to how I can link my 2 arrays (I am pretty sure I know how to make the array populate a listbox) I would be very much obliged.
Public Class Form1
Dim Stationid() As String = {"Cardiovascular Examination", "Respiratory Examination", "Abdominal Examination", "Abdominal Examination with Stoma", "Groin and External Genitalia Examination", "Cranial Nerves Examination", "Arm Examination", "Leg Examination", "Parkinson`s Examination", "Cerebellar Examination", "Speech Examination", "Hand Examination", "Elbow Examination", "Shoulder

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.
I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:
I have to write a function that returns array of strings.
How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.
Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?
I have 36 numbers and I want to get all the possible 3 number combinations of these 36 numbers. This is what I have written. It's clunky and it gives repeats also. Any help?:

Dim Triples() As String = Nothing
Dim count As Integer = Nothing
For i = 1 To 36
For j = 2 To 36

View 3 RepliesI am working on this project and I am suppose to overload the method to allow strings instead of integer. Allow the user optionally add a thried string from a third text box. Okey I am trying to under stand this good. This is the code I have:
This is my overload class
Public Class OverloadEx
[CODE]........................
So with my overload class instead of integer I should put string there? If the user clicks the add button it will allow the user to add all 3 text boxes but when the user click the add string it will allow the user to add all three text boxes to string. So do I click the add string button to overload it to that one just like I did with the add?
If I can generate a list of random integer with a click of the button and put the results in a list box using VB.Net but how do I randomly change several integer number generated by button 1 by clicking button 2? How I retain the results of button1 and change the results when clicking button2?I try before but the two button function code cannot relate to one another.

View 4 RepliesI would like to write a function GetHashCodeOfList() which returns a hashcode of a list of strings regardless of order. Given 2 lists with the same strings should return the same hashcode.
ArrayList list1 = new ArrayList()
list1.Add("String1");
list1.Add("String2");
[Code].....
I can first sort the list, then combine the sorted list into 1 long string and then call GetHashCode(). However sorting is a slow operation. I can get the hash of each individual string (by calling string.GetHashCode()) in the list, then multiplying all hashes and calling Mod UInt32.MaxValue. For Example: "String1".GetHashCode() * "String2".GetHashCode * ... MOD UInt32.MaxValue. But this results in a number overflow.
since this

Dim test As New List(Of Integer())
test.Add(New Integer() {1, 2, 3})
test.Add(New Integer() {1, 3, 3})
test.Add(New Integer() {3, 2, 3})

does not work, how would you do the distinct?
How can i get the integer value alone from the combobox list. For examle, if the item in the combobox is "ABC 01", i want to get the value "01" alone into my code for processing. How can i do it?
View 3 RepliesI have two List(Of String).Both Lists contain duplicate strings. I want to pick out all the strings which are contained in both the Lists. For example:
List1 ={"10X100","10X100","10X100","50X100","50X100","100X100"}
List2 ={"10X100","10X100","20X100","50X100","50X100","100X100","200X100"}
So, the result should be: List3={"10X100","10X100","50X100","50X100","100X100"}.How to do this?
Ok so what i'm trying to do is grab some strings from a list box and put them in an array so i can list them in a message box each index of the array on a new line

This is my first time posting here although I have been lurking for quite some time. I'm stuck with a problem I have seen before and never solved: I have a long list (~23,000) of alphanumeric strings that I'm reading into a List(of String) from a text file, and then sorting. When I iterate through the list after sorting, it appears to be correctly sorted EXCEPT that the element that was originally at the beginning of the list is now at the end (and it should be somewhere in the middle after the sort)Here is a sample input:
PRE1-PRE2_00015648
PRE1-PRE2_00015649
PRE1-PRE2_00015650

Update: I didn't make it clear but I meant this to be a question about where/how I would use a function to return a list of strings when I'm trying to just work with classes.I have a class called Account.
I have data access class called AccountDAO.I have various functions that return lists of objects like GetAllAccounts, GetAccountByID etc.I want to populate a drop down list with just the account names and nothing else. It's proving rather slow when using lists of objects and databinding them to the dropdownlist.
I feel like I should be using a simple "Select Account_Name From blah" type statement and returning a list of strings but I don't know how to work this into my class and data access class.
i have a list of strings
Public baseList As New List(Of String)
That I fill with a list of base words, but I now need to build a new list of words in which will contain a list of every combination of words in the baseList (given that each string is less than the maximum length i specify)For Example if baseList contains
horse
at
ten
football
and the maximum string length is set to 10, the finalList would contain
horse
horseat
horseten
horseatten

how to build finalList from baseList?
I need to fill a List with data from a DataColumn fetched in dataset. How can I achieve that in 1 step without looping through the entire table in dataset.I want something like this:
Dim lst as List (of Integer) = ds.Tables("Customer_Data").Columns(0)
However the above line is wrong as System.Data.DataColumn cannot be converted to System.Collections.Generic.List(Of Integer)
Is there a way to get an integer value from a DataRowView? I have a list box with datasource set to a binding source. I would like to be able to do this:
dim num as integer
num = lstBox.SelectedValue
But I receive an InvalidCastException:
Conversion from type 'DataRowView' to type 'Integer' is not valid.
This is how I fill my list box:
myDataAdapter("SELECT CustID FROM Customers", cn)
myDataAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "Customers")
myBindingSource.DataSource = myDataSet
[Code]....
I have one list box this works for and one it doesn't, so far. The only difference that I notice is: the one that works, the Query in the data apapter retrieves and auto number from my access table, the one that does not work, the Query in the data adapter retrieves a number.
Or, is there another way I should go about this?
The application that I am trying to make is a form with a list box for CustID, OrderID, ItemID, and others. The CustID is from table Customers, OrderID is from table Orders, and ItemID is from table Items.
1. How can I populate a List(of Integer) from datarow
2. How can I take only certain columns from datatable.select() and copy the data to datarow? So it's like this: datatable dt has columns ID,Name,age,address and DOB I want to take only the columns name, address and age where age>40 and put the result set into a datarow dr.
i want to build a datatable where each cell has a list(of integer)
is there a way to force the table to add automatically a new empty list(of integer) in each cell every time a new row is created without adding this cell by cell ?
In .NET which data type do you use to store list of strings ?Currently I'm using List(Of String) because it's easier than Array to manage and add/remove stuff. I'm trying to understand what are the other options, when they become handy and when I should avoid List(Of String) usage.
