View 5 RepliesI am trying to create and initialize an array of structures of a fixed size. Each struct will be populated when a button is clicked. Here is an example of my struct:
public structure buttonStruct
dim x() as Boolean
dim y() as Boolean
[code]....
In my form_load function I am declaring the array of structs and:
Dim BtnStruct(15) As ButtonStruct
BtnStruct(0).Initialize()
[code]....
Whenever a specific button is clicked, I am trying to collect data and store it in the respective struct and so for example, if button 1 is clicked then I will store the data associated with button 1 into BtnStruct(0). The position of the button is stored in a public variable called BtnNum. If I attempt to store information in the struct inside another function as follows, I receive an error
BtnStruct(BtnNum).x(pos - 1) = temp "btnstruct is not declared. it may not be inaccessible due to its protection level"
I have a Structure, and I am having trouble initialising it. Specifically when I try to populate the Vector3 variables, it tells me that they are Nothing, so I need to make them New when the array of this structure is declared.[code]Structures cannot declare a non-shared 'Sub New' with no parameters.I have no parameter to supply, and this will be an array so I'm not even sure how I would supply it.The second option to fix the error is to make the Sub New shared, but then I get other errors: Cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an explicit instance of the class.Does anyone know how I can resolve this. My end goal is to have an array of this structure type with the Vector3s ready to use.
View 6 RepliesNow all went well about from using the structure correctly. The working of the structure was perfect. How ever i missed Two important issues. The structure needed a fixed size of 10 items (9 in programming terms starting from 0) And also out of the 5 items allowed to be chosen as one of the member types for the structure a limit of 5 items of that particular type.
[Code]...
Public Function Foo() as String() Dim bar As String = {"bar1","bar2","bar3"}
Return bar End Function
My situation is similar to the code sample above where I'm returning a string array from a function.
What I would like to do is just return the string array without having to declare a variable first and then return the variable.Something like this, although this obviously doesn't work:
Return {"bar1","bar2","bar3"}
Is it possible to do this, I can't seem to find a method that works?
I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns. My goal is to have the font dynamically change size to be as large as possible without overflowing the fixed label size.

above code throws me a "Collection was of a fixed size".
I have subclassed a control that would be vastly better if it was a certain size. At first, I thought I could simply set the height and width in the constructor. That would annoy people, as the control would be placed on the form at some size, and the size would then shift when the program starts, but it doesn't work anyways because the control constructor is called before the size properties are applied to it. Is there a way to fix the size of a control at design time? The only controls that I can think of that don't have the ability to be sized are pretty highly specialized.
View 3 RepliesIs it possible for a richtextbox to have a fixed size? For example, 5 would mean that the richtextbox would only show 5 lines at a time.
View 3 RepliesI am developing, in VB.Net, an application that reads from text files using a FileStream Object. I do not use a StreamReader, since the buffering it does makes it impossible to use Seek.hose text files form a database, with both index and data files. In index files, all fields are fixed-length, which is not the case in data files.I've recently run into a problem. Since some of my files contain accents, the corresponding characters take more that 1 Byte. Therefore, when I seek in the index file, and offset appears the rest of my index file is not read in the right way
View 4 RepliesI have a gridview which automatically adjusts with the dataset but i want to adjust he size a bit
can any one tell me how to set the column size to a fixed size
In languages like C++ and Java, it is possible to declare an array of an arbitrary size and then give it a specific size later in the code.

I have two datagridviews in my app. They're related. When there is no record in the parent datagridview, I select the "New Row" and then press the Add Button in the child datagridview's bindingnavigator. Then I get that exception:
InvalidOperationException: Item cannot be added to a read-only or fixed-size list.
I know why this happens.When I add new record to child datagridview, parent datagridview's new row loses focus and then delete row. So this error occures.How do I prevent my program from this exception. Remember, it's only occures if there is no record in the parent datagridview.
I would like to take print on pre-printed stationery where I need to fixed up my data in very particular place. Also the paper size is 10 inch by width and 6 inch by height and it is continuous paper which need to be take print from dot matrix printer.
View 1 RepliesI need to limit a Textbox and DataGridView to only enter text in the fixed size of the cell/textbox on the screen. So I have limited the cell/textbox so user can not change it size. Both allow multiline and wordwrap. cell/textbox is sized to accept 5 lines of data (wordwrap or enters) This is like an online form.So the text enter will be printed so I can not allow scrolling in the cell/textbox.
How can I stop the scrolling of the text inside the cell/textbox.
Also : if the user Paste into the cell/textbox how to truncate text if larger than display area.
sample settings:
DataGridView1.AutoSizeRowsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeRowsMode.None
DataGridView1.AllowUserToResizeRows = False

I have a class file which contains a structure like this.
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)> _
Public Structure SampleStructure
<FieldOffset(0)> Public field1 As Int16
[Code]......
I have a structure which includes this...
Structure MasterStruct
<VBFixedArray(98)>
End Structure
When I create the code to initialize the Sections array like this...
Dim MasterX as MasterStruct
Dim Temp as Integer
For Temp = 0 To 98
MasterX.Sections(Temp) = 0
Next
VS 2008 tells me that MasterX.Sections "is not an array or method, and cannot have an argument list."
What i am doing is inserting the first element in array3 into the first index of array4
then im checking second index of array3 and if this is the same as the 1st array then dont insert into array4 as this will be a duplicate.[code]...
I am trying to write a program that will use a Structure with <VBFixedString(4), VBFixedArray(10)> Public Test1() As String. Back in vb6 it was in the Type statement as Test1(10) as string *4 When I hit the line ".Test1(X) = TB1" i get the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
[Code]...
The file structure is fine for retrieving data from the file but when I go to write data to the elements and hit any of the fixed array elements, I get an exception error. this has got to be a sytax problem I am just not seeing.
It seems that I am not addressing the array member correctly yet the same logic pulls it properly from existing records on file.
in a Module I have the structure as follows:
Structure INVOICE
<VBFixedString(6)> Public NUM As String
<VBFixedString(2)> Public SYMBOL As String
[Code]....
please tell me what is below code doing? is it creating array with two values or its creating to string index which will take value later? [code]
View 4 RepliesI (SQL Server DBA) have inherited a VB App, being called in a TSQL Script, that creates a PDF using the Crystal reports. Until a month , PDF was being generated with correct extension and size, but for some unknown reason the app creates a non PDF file with Zero size. Interestingly the script that calls the App and send the PDF created as an attachment in an email via MS Outlook, sends it as PDF with data.
Also when trying to open up the same 0KB file in Acrobat, gives an error:
"Could not open because it is either not a supported file type or the file has been damaged (for example it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)"
FYI, the Exchange server was upgraded so the email isn't working either and its causing a great pain for management to not to be able to have that report.
I have a Comma Separated value file in .txt format... simply put, its a bunch of data delimited by commas and text qualifier is separated with ""For example:
"So and so","1234","Blah Blah", "Foo","Bar","","","",""
"foofoo","barbar","etc.."
Where ever there is a carriage return it signifies a new row and every comma separates a new column from another.My next step is to go into VB.net and create an array using these values and having the commas serve as the delimeter and somehow making the array into a table where the text files' format matches the array After that array has been created, I need to select only certain parts of that array and store the value into a variable for later use.... how to make the array and selecting the certain info out of it..
I am creating a List(Of String), always of size 9.This list contains True/False values. I need to go through this list and find the 3 values that are True (will never be more than 3, but could be less) and then set 3 string values in my code to the 3 index's of those values + 1.
Here is my current code:
Private Sub SetDenialReasons(ByVal LoanData As DataRow)
Dim reasons As New List(Of String)
With reasons

I had 3 True's next to each other in the array and the code failed with an exception saying count must be positive or something.Now if there are less than 3 True's, it should set the remaining DenialReason's that haven't been set yet as blank (however they are set as blank in the constructor already to account for this).
being used to PHP and the easiness of creating arrays with no specific size... I'm hating arrays in VB.
Is there a way I can create an array who's size I won't know?

I'm converting an application from VB6 to VB.NET, and am required to declare and initialise some controls in code (control arrays). I have it declared globally, so other forms can access the data stored within them, and then I try to manipulate them inside the Form_Load() sub:

What is the maximum size of a multidimensional array in VB.NET (in my case two-dimensional)? I'm using Visual Studio 2008, Framework 3.5 I found in msdn [URL]: "The length of every dimension of an array is limited to the maximum value of a Long data type, which is (2 ^ 64) - 1. The total size limit of an array varies, based on your operating system and how much memory is available. Using an array that exceeds the amount of RAM available on your system is slower because the data must be read from and written to disk." However, I am trying to use an array of data type single, with dimensions 64513 by 301 but Visual Studio seems to freeze when I execute the line to redimension the array ( Redim myArray(64513, 301) ). I have 4Gb of RAM and am using Windows XP (32-bit).
