Culture Info - Get The Sytem Date Display?
Aug 6, 2010
I'm learning about the cultureinfo and doing ok but there is one thing I can't work out.I'd like to know how to find out the display settings of the date for the user pc.For example, I have an American bought laptop using the us culture so the date will be MM/dd/YY but I have changed the date setting to read dd/MM7YY. So that means I haven't actually changed the inbuilt cultureinfo, I've just "altered" a setting and it's that setting I want to access. When my project starts I have a label that I want to read as dd/MM/YY.With another pc it might be different - the culture might be uk but the date setting might be changed MM/dd/YY so I want the label to read MM/dd/YY etc etc etc.If the cultureinfo hasn't been changed then I want the label to read whatever the date is set to etc.

The issue is in a windows based client-server application.In the GUI, the system date value is converted to string and is stored in a text box, which is displayed while the dialog gets loaded.How to change the format of date so that when the form loads the date is displayed in en-US culture irrespective of the regional setting of the system(for eg: regional setting of the system is "fr-FR").

I have:
1 ComboBox(cboCultureInfoNumeric) with the required CultureInfo.
1 Textbox(txtNumeric)
1 Label(Label1)
When the user change the Culture info the decimal point or comma change in the textbox(txtNumeric) nicely.What i try is to change also the text in Label1 by the culture info.If the user change the CultureInfo to German the Label1.text = �German�If the user change the CultureInfo to Spanish the Label1.text = �Spanish� And so on�
What I have do is :
1 - Set the Form1 Localizable property to true.
2 - Set the form's Language property to "German (Germany)".
3 - Set the Label1 Text property to "German".
VB make the file -> MainForm.de-DE.resx with name: Label.Text and value: German
4 - Set the form's Language property to "Spanish (Spain)".
5 - Set the Label1 Text property to " Spanish ".
VB make the file -> resx
6 - Set the form's Language property to "French (France)".
7 - Set the Label1 Text property to "French".
VB make the file -> resx
8 - �The TextBox with the numeric value�s change when the user change the CulureInfo but not the Label1, why?It work perfect when I put �Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-FR")in the MainForm.designer.vb before InitializeComponent function and in the New function.But I want to use the ComboBox�

I am working on a media player, and I would like to setup a local playlist feature. I am using a single ListBox and its "Display-" and "Value-Member" properties. The display is the song's Artist and Name, and the value is the song's file path (i.e 'C:UsersUSERMusicetc.').To write the file path to the .txt file, I believe I can use the following code:[code]

I have multi language application where i am using "en-US" and "ar-KW" languages.I also have WinForm where I am using the DateTimePicker control.When the user logs in, if his default language is "en-US" it saves the record but when he has default language "ar-KW" then this date format is not saving in database, and produces an error. Why?
The datatype of the Employee DateOfBirth field is smallDateTime in SQL Server.I am using the following code in VB to save the record. There is a normal INSERT stored procedure in the backend.

For example, today is 05/11/2009, I have two text box.
Actually it means that whatever what date i choose within the current month, the two textbox will display the last three months date.
For Example, Current Month is November 2009 , Textbox 1 will show 01/08/2009, Textbox 2 will show 31/10/2009.
Another example is Current Month is January 2009, Textbox 1 will show 01/10/2009, Textbox 2 will show 31/12/2008.
May I know how the vb.net code should look like?

I am trying to read the pc system information so that I can retrieve the time and date format.
My code below:
Dim Info As System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo
Info = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat
Debug.WriteLine(Info.LongDatePattern)
Retruns in debug: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy"
So I have 2 questions;
1) Why is there, a dd after the MMMM.
2) My company has small franchise branch offices round the world - France, USA, etc. What I am trying to do is get the date format so I can decide what country I am in - then when I print out the date on my order labels I can change the date format to suit Americans or Europeans etc.

"Getting a list of system tray icons/programs has been a thorn in my side for the past year can get the list as long as explorer is running, but the second explorer is closed, the list will not populate. I'm frustrated beyond belief that I can't find the proper API calls to get the information. If anyone knows how to do this, PLEASE share it here!! I know it is possible, because other shells do it. -Ray"

I am trying to do a form it has 2 comboboxes and I have the arrays set up one of the combboxes is for pizza size and it has 4 selections and the other combobox is for crust style it has 2 selections. The user has to pick on of each and it pills the price from the array and then displays the price in a text box. I for the life of me can't figure out how to get it to pull the info from the array and then display it in the text box, it either displays nothing in the text box or a 0 or 1.

I just wanted to try something I had in mind,
Code:
Dim mTreeNodeCollection As TreeNodeCollection
mTreeNodeCollection.Add(New TreeNode("ddsf"))
above produces a 'System.NullReferenceException was unhandled' which is fine.
So I thought dam I forgot to initialise it!!
Code:
Dim mTreeNodeCollection As New TreeNodeCollection
mTreeNodeCollection.Add(New TreeNode("ddsf"))
Now it does not run but i get
Quote:
Type 'Sytem.Windows.Forms.TreeViewCollection' has no constructors
so how the hell I'm I going to get it to work?? can I only Add to a TreeNode collection , a TreeView?

How to set current year in AssemblyInfo file?
I used
Instead of this:
<Assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright 2012, Company Name.")>
tried this:
<Assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright" + DateTime.Now.Year.ToString() + ", Company Name.")>
I get invalid constant error.
I don't want to use registry key entries, what is the optimum way of doing this? (so that when a user right clicks on EXE & looks for assembly information can see current year).
