View 5 RepliesI would like to know how can I use (read and write) a value in each of my forms. To make it clear: I have 2 forms, Form1 and Form2. I've a string, called string1. If I use in Class Form1 (e.g. at Form1 load) Dim String1 As String, Form2 can't read or change it, because it only exists in Form1. So I would like to have a, let say "general value", a (for example) string, which every form can read&write.

This function doesn't work if I change the input argument 'pdu' from a string to an int.Would someone please help me figure out what to do here so that the checksum does not add the ascii value of the int argument but rather the actual integer value?I took out a few lines of the actual function but it adds the input argument to a packet sent out via TCP protocol.This function shows the integer value just fine in the string that gets encoded as a byte array. the checksum is wrong.!
''Public Function buildpacket(pdu As Integer) is what I want.
Public Function buildpacket(pdu As String)

I'm just wondering if it's possible to display a string in a integer column in a DataGridView? The reason I'm asking is that I have a column wich displays the place for each runner (it's a sports application). And if the runner is disqualified, it will display "DSQ" instead of the place.
Now, if I want to sort by clicking the column header, there's a problem if there are more than 10 runners. If there are like 12 runners, the sorting will be like this:

I have a LINQ2Entity problem, I want to get the value, string, from a database, so I select FProducts.Serial_number, and to end the query, I do .ToDictionary. The problem is, it tells me that it doesn't have sufficient parameters, to convert ToDictionary. So I need something like select FProducts.Serial_number, Nothing). ToDictionary. Also FProducts.Serial_number, 0).ToDictionary doesn't work.

I'm trying to add a datagridview in vb.net, but it does not allow me to change the connection string or the database that should be imported to connect to it. The only thing that I'm seeing is the previous ms sql database that I connected with datagridview and everytime I click the new connection, the window closes and it leaves me with the datagridview with the previous connection that I have. And its not applicable because, now I want to connect it with mysql. Not ms sql. Its some sort of a cache like feature in vb.net, how do I get rid of it. so that I can add the new connection for mysql? Do I need to reinstall visual studio 2008?

How do I convert from a string to an integer? Here's what I tried:
Price = CInt(Int(txtPrice.Text))
I took out the Int and I still got an exception.
I know this is a proper enum:
Private Enum Months
JANUARY = 1
FEBRUARY = 2
...
End Enum
However, I want to have an enum where the string will solely be integers.
Example:
Private Enum ColumnCounts
01 = 5
02 = 4
03 = 40[code].....
Essentially, I didn't want to put the f in there, just wanted to do 01. The way this will be called is:
Select Case (nRecordType)
Case "01"
...
Case "02"[code].....
Because I'm not making an instance of it and not calling a constructor, there's no way to autopopulate a Dictionary.And I don't want to convert to integer so I'm not going to do an array. That is just in case eventually the value gets above 99 and the next value would be A0.I'm trying to think of easy future changes to this and backwards compatability.If you need more explanations, let me know.
Edit 2:This is what I've done now and I think it should work:
Public Class Part
Private Shared columnCounts As Dictionary(Of String, Integer) = New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
Public Shared Function ValidateColumns(ByRef lstFiels As List(Of String)) As Boolean[code]....
I can't verify that it's going to do what I want to, but it doesn't give me an error when I build it so I'm crossing my fingers.

I am working on a form of copy protection for some software i am developing. In order to generate a unique license for a machine i am aquiring information about the hardware the software is running on. For this task i aquire the 'BIOS version' of the machine using the Win32 libaries. As the BIOS version format can vary from machine to machine i need to be able to convert a string value to a integer so i can perform a mathmatical calculation on it.
A typical BIOS version output may look like 'GBT42302e31' for eg once all the spaces and characters are removed. However this output can change dramatically between motherboard manufacturers.How do i convert the value 'GBT42302e31' to a integer like '5356243' for eg so i can then perform a calculation or hexidecimal conversion on it?.
I have tried the following and they all fail with numerous conversion errors:Cint Convert.ToInt64()
I want to take each character in a string and multiply it by 7 then 3 then 1. And then loop back to 7 etc. This is what I got but it doesn't work
For Each ch As Char In row("SCAN2").ToString
product = Convert.ToInt64(ch) * 7
Next
Lets say the first character is 8. It should be 8 * 7 = 56
but I get 392.

I am writing some code which needs me to parse the integer from a string. For example:
Dim str as String = "300ML"
I need to store the 300 to an Integer and discard the "ML" from the end. I can't seem to find a sensible way of doing this other than using RegEx. However, for the life of me I can not get my head around RegEx.
Im working with a file and need to set the value of a variable from an integer(which it is in the file) to a String(to be consoled out). Im receiving an error in the if statements.
