I am having trouble creating a console application with these specifications:
* Declare variables named HoursWorked, HourlyRate, GrossPay, and NetPay, each having a data type of Double.
* Read values for the hours worked and hourly rate.
* Write the statements to multiply the hours worked by the hourly rate to calculate the gross pay. Calculate the net pay by multiplying the gross pay by 0.80.
* Display the gross pay and net pay (formatted for currency).
This is what I have so far:
Sub Main()
Dim HoursWorked As Double
Dim HourlyRate As Double
Dim GrossPay As Double
[code]....
I don't exactly understand what it means to "read the values for hours worked and hourly rate". Does it have something to do with "Read Line"?
how to create a console application that asks the user to input his or her first name and last name separately. The console application will display a message that varies according to the user. Then combine the two names into a single string variable named fullName, so that they 'll output a full name.
Basically i am creating a console application that will create and store client information as a .txt file it is going okay but i have come across a slight hick up i want to use something on the lines of this .....
dim lastname as string Do Until Integer.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), LastName) = False Console.WriteLine("Invalid input, Please try again") Console.Write("LastName:-")
[code].....
this works fine to trap out numbers from letters but the problem i am getting is when the program calls uppon LastName it is recording 0 and wanted to know if there is a way of getting past this ..... so basically i need a way to allow letter but not numbers and symbols and then dispay a pernolised error message but at the same time use Stream writer to save was the answer is in a .txt file.
I have a console application I'm using to run scheduled jobs through windows scheduler. All the communication to/from the application is in email, event logging, database logs. Is there any way I can suppress the console window from coming up?
I am currently working on an application, where I am using a console application, that will set up the application prior to the main form is run. This is no problem I've got that all working perfectly, the only problem I have is that the console is showing while the application is running, I was wondering whether anyone knows any way in which I would be able to hide the console before it gets shown to the user.
How do I get the console from closing immediatley upon opening in a Console Application program? I have all of the code written but when I run the program it pops up the console window and then immediatley exits so I am unable to read what is in the window to see if my program is operating correctly. This is the first time I've ever used a console window so I don't know where in the code I would need to put "whatever it is" I might need to put to keep the window open until closed by the user.
It sounds confusing but it's not really. What I need is basically a way to emulate the console style text, without using a console. What I'm really doing is trying to do a matrix effect on my form background, by drawing symbols and moving them, alternating their colors (see this video for what I mean).
Is there a way to do this effectively with a timer and a draw event, with the timer calling the draw event and changing the intervals?
I found a great way to get the equations of calculations from application to Microsoft word file with MimeTex here-[URL]
But unfortunelly the code is only for Microsoft Visual Studio Solution under the Eq2ImgWinForms folder, but I use on my application Visual Basic language (Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition).
how could I use the same thing on my application with Visual Basic?
Can I Post a Windows Application that uses Excel for live data calculations? Basically from the Windows app, a user makes a menu selection and which in turn opens an excel file in memory using it for calculations. These files are put together by different groups and formatted for the Windows app to build interfaces based on each file.I also accompany an .mdf file as well. Is all this possible for customers to access and run this with Windows Azure.
I'm developing a Silverlight application where I want to simulate a console. There are a lot of ways to represent this - StackPannels, grid of TextBoxes, etc - and I was wondering what the bets fit would be?
Display an 80x20 grid that scales based on parent size Be able to update an individual cell's character Be able to set a cell's forground and background color
I know, not the ideal environment for games. However, I do love VB.net and would like to try.Currently, I am creating a console version of a roguelike (hack/slash ascii adventure) and need some help with the theory. The implementation I can handle.
In the game loop, if I redraw the map every time an action happens, there will be an awful flicker.Should I: a.) set up movements so they rewrite the area the player was at, and then write at the tile the player is going to
I'm having trouble figuring how to code the calculations for a Pocket PC application that calculates the cost of a cell phone bill. From a Pocket PC the user should enter the number of minutes used during the past month, in order to calculate the cost of the cell phone bill. The plan allows 300 minutes for $29.95 per month. For each minute over 300 the cost is $0.17 cents per minute. Tax and Fees are $4.85 a month.
1. User enters the number of minutes used during the past month.
2. Based on plan rate of 300 minutes for $29.95 and 17 cents for each minute over 300 calculate the cost of the bill including the fixed cost of $4.85.
3. The user must be able to initiate the calculation and display the individual charges and the total cost of the cell phone bill.
4. The user should be able to clear the number of cell phone minutes, the individual charges and the bill total
If negative number is enterd for the cell phone minutes, the user should be advised and asked for a valid entry If non numeric value entered for the cell phone minutes, or if left blank the user should be advised and asked for a valid entry.Application is deployed on the Pocket PC emulator built in VS 2008
Enter # of Minutes ________ (user enters) Regular Minutes Charge ___ (29.95)
I am trying to use the System.Diagnostics.Process class.I have the following Windows Forms application. It consists of 1 Button and 1 TextBox. The only code is for the button click event as follows.

I have a fully functional multi-threaded VB2008 console application that I need to convert to a windows forms application. I am doing this to add additional functionality at a later time. How would I go about doing this?
I have a console application code below. I am trying to convert this to a windows based form application but I don't know where to start. This code asks you to input a website and then it gives you the IP address for that particular website the user enters. All the code works fine but I want this in a windows form application.
using System; using System.Net; using System.Net.Sockets; class GTest
Okay so basically I want to see if I can make an windows application or just a console application in VB.NET that will verify an MD5 Checksum. I have no idea how to start this out, but I have the ideas of what I'd like to make it.
detect whether the current application is a console or a winforms application.The reason that I want to do this is that I am developing a library with a global error handler in it and I need to know what type of application it is in order to be able to subscribe to the appropriate exception event.Obviously I could get the user to pass in a parameter specifying what type of application it is, but I would rather deal with that automatically so its all encapsulated from the user of the class.
We currently have +- 20 different console application developed in VS2008 and running at different scheduled intervals, all controlled by Windows schedular. The problem we have come accross is that it is becoming increasingly difficult to manage and maintain these console apps. In some instances a console app will just fail or never run to start with and this creates a lot of problems. In many cases one console app is dependant on another and if 1st one fails well...you see where this is going.
I am looking for a new solution that will help us to trace, debug and manage these console apps better. We are preferably looking for a gui front end, maybe windows app where we can set the intervals for them to sun and view some error reports if they did not run.We are port all the code for the console apps to which ever new appliocation we develop.

I have a shared class library which is being used by an asp.net web application and a console application.In the web.config of my web app, I have a sectionGroup within the configSections declared, and then the matching settings.
I am maintaining some VB.net code and I am more of a C# programmer. I have taken over maintaining several projects from people who have since left the project. The manager tells me that some of the VB.net programs are console applications. Yet in looking through the source code I am not able to distinguish wether the code is for a console application or for some other VB.net program like a VB.net windows application. Can someone tell me if there is a way to determine if a VB.net program is a console application.
I have a console application that asks the user to press number 5 to close the application. but i don't know what code to put so when the users press 5 the console application just closes?
i have created a very simple console application in vb.net that emails me some info from the db daily. everythign works in my dev environment, however when i move it out to production and try to run the executable, i get the following error message:"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. please close the program"i have put in some exception checks in the code:
Dim output As String Try output = FormatIndividualRecords(False)
When I call a different sub from the main sub in my console application, I have to type in the word twice for it to go to the sub. But I have noticed that it only does that when I have it to be recognized at the second instance (I think I used that right). What I mean by that is this.
Sub Main() if console.readline = "Test1" call _Exit_()
[Code].....
If I type Test1, it will call the _Exit_ no problem. But if I call _New_, I have to type it in twice.
I also tried putting them both into if statements instead of elseif.
I have also change the order of the calls, this is where it get interesting to me. If I were to change the call from "Test1" to _New_ ()(So, instead of calling _Exit_(), it will call _New_()) If I do this, then the _New_() will work no problem and I don't have to type it in twice, but I do for the _Exit_() now.
