I can not column 4 of my Datagridview1 to display numbers as ###,###,### with not decimal places it seems stuck in Scientific notation mode, even though I have set it several different ways in the menus.How do I set it in the program like I set the column width.
DataGridView1.Columns(2).Width = 80This is in VB ExpressGary
6/0
6/1E-10
6/2E-10

I need those in there true form not scientific notation, how do i do this in vb.net?
The only post I can find on this matter is one that coverts the double to a decimal before converting it into a string. However the numbers I'm using are far larger than what a decimal can store.
Example: 1/(16^10)
So how can I convert the solution to the problem above. Which equals 0.00000000000090949470177292824, to a string value that is exactly as it's shown?
Cause when I convert this to a decimal I still end up with a string in scientific notation..
I've written a small program that does some calculations and I want to display some of the results in scientific notation. For example, I want to display 0.005 as 5.0E-3.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a project that involes reading an Excel file, picking through it, then creating a flat CSV file. One of the the data elements I am picking up is a 9 character string that may be numeric, or contain one or more alpha chatacters. Excel has a nasty habit of converting long numerics to scientific notaion. I can overcome this by converting the "general" string to "TEXT".
However, there is one instance where I can not get the function to work...the string is "90333E108" ( the CUSIP for USU). Regardless, the text string is saved properly into the CSV file. When opened in a text editor, it reads correctly.
When opened with Excel, it is in scientific notation. Changing the field to "text" from "scientific" still displays "9.03E+112".
how to create an csv file that Excel will open and read correctly?
You can test this by creating an Excel workbook, format all cells as TEXT and add the following data:
90333E108

I've got an app that sometimes stores some decently small numbers, such as 0.000023425. These numbers get loaded up in TextBox controls for users to edit.
Dim number As Double = 0.000023425
someTextBox.Text = number.ToString() ' Shows "2.3425E-05"
As mentioned, the text that shows is 2.3425E-05, which isn't exactly intuitive for the user to see, plus I have numbers even more precise (out to 19 decimal places). I would like the output to be fixed point. Of course I could easily and cleanly do:
number.ToString("F20") ' Shows "0.00002342500000000000"
But then there's an annoying number of zeros left over. So, to fix that, I could do:
number.ToString("#,##0.####################") ' Shows "0.000023425"
Which is what I want, but is there any better way to do it than to have that giant ugly format string there? So, ok, it's not that ugly, but surely there's a different way, right? My goal is to show the raw value being stored in the DB in a friendly way, and I would rather not have to force a format on the number at all.I found that changing the underlying datatype to Decimal solves the issue.
Dim number As Decimal = 0.000023425
someTextBox.Text = number.ToString() ' Shows "0.000023425" instead of "2.3425E-05"
So it sounds like Doubles aren't precise enough to be displayed normally?
I was using the following code:
If Entry.ToLower = "test" Then
Dim test As Double
test = Double.Parse(InputBox("test", "test")[code]....
to check if I can inputoutput scientific numbers tofrom Double.I was able to output the data successfully. (With "E" instead of "* 10 ^" but that's fine)But when I input the same number error occurs.
"System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.

I am trying to have a firm grasp of VB.NET and wondering if there is a way to use a double dot notation instead of the single dot notation people are normally accustomed to?The double dot notation that I want to implement is shown directly below:

Currently, the only way I know is by using the call shown below which I suspect is not using the full capabilities of .NET:
Validations.IsValid(PersonData.Birthdate)
My code is shown below:

I am using oracle connection to my datagridview and my oracle table contain two fields 1)id and 2)allow id of type number field and allow of type char(1) field {for storing if true then 'T' and if false then 'F' in table)

I use code to connect datagridview with datasource is
CODE:
DataGridView filtering. I have this data bound to a combobox:
Product Index
Prod1 1,2
Prod2 7,8,9
Prod3 10,11
Actual Table structure is:
Index Product
1 prod1
2 prod1
7 prod2
8 prod2
9 prod2
10 prod2
11 prod3
(Product is the Display Member, Index is the ValueMember)
On the combobox's SelectedIndexChanged event, I'm filtering the DataGridView:
DGVCustomers.DataSource.DefaultView.RowFilter = "indexes like '%" + MyDropDown.SelectedValue + "%'"
If MyDropDown.SelectedValue is "1,2" then any record without either number will not be shown , in addition "7,8,9" will only show customers with that string... etc etc. How can I filter the DGV correctly with the CSV style data? (It's not my data unfortunately!)
Is it possible to give individual cells in a data grid view row different styles such as backcolor, fontcolor etc?
I do not mean giving the whole row a new style, only a specific cell.
A datagridview is sorting numerical values (when clicking the datagridview column header text) in the wrong order based on the initial digit:

I am developing a project using VB2010. In the attached example I created a Form.
On tha form I put a GroupBox Containing a DataGridView.
I am trying to set, at Design time, the ColumnHeadersDefaultCellstyle Font of the grid, defining the Font, the size and the style (Bold). After saving the project or running it, The Font properties of the grid headers are changed to the Font properties of the containing
GroupBox.
Why is that so? How can I set, at Design Time, a different font for the Grid Column headers and the GroupBox?
To demostrate the problm - Try to modify the Font of the grid headers, in the attached example,
to "Bold" "Size 12", Run the application and see the result.
how i can change the native scrollbar style in my application to my custom style. I can adopt a custom scrollbar to attain this purpose but this will not serve my purpose because i want this attribute in entire application. Like it the text in textbox gets longer than its bounds than the scrollbar appers are my custom bar not the formal ones

I'm trying to build a scientific calculator with vb .net, except it is vista glass :-p
I basically want the user to be able to enter an equation like SQRT(5 * 6) / (2 ^ 4) and then I want vb to use system.math to solve it. If I write this in my code, vb is able to do it, so how could I do this at runtime.
Show me a link to the source of a good scientific calculator example?

I've created an application where our clients can have access to our program by logging in. It uses our database for most information. I want to implement a richtextbox where it saves notes but i don't know if i should be saving that information as a file or what. Also I also have an application that handles everything that deals with our clients I also want to implement a messaging system that can leave a message to the client upon opening the application if they are missing any information that we require. Can someone point me the right direction on where to learn about this.

Can this query be written in Query Notation ?
Introduction: Probably a year or more ago I asked if was possible to use the Mathematical functions in Windows Calculator or use any DLL file it may use without a satisfactory answer. As I require the greater accuracy of Windows Calculator in String format. Would it be easy to keep switching between a Vb.Net Form windows based application and Windows Calculator and, using SendKeys, get results back to a Vb.Net application using Copy & Paste via the clipboard but to do this in an automatic fashion at all please?
What I am particularly interested in is getting Log10 or LogN results and also doing ARC or INVerse LOG10 or INVerse LogN calculations. But I require the greater accuracy of windows Calculator. Additionally, would it be possible to assign a keyboard keymap to each key in Windows Calculator so that, for example, the L key would be assigned to clicking the LOG10 button, ALT for the Hyp checkbox, SHIFT for the INV checkbox and so on?So imagine sending key sequences to Windows Calculator to completely automate it. And Windows Calculator has been updated too in WINDOWS 7, would that make it any easier to work with?

I am deveolping a charting program and have a need to have dynamic draggable labels on the chart for notation purposes. Everything works fine until I try to drag a label past the 32767 (16 bit limit).
Here is the code that I drag the label with:
If ISDRAGGING = True Then 'DRAGGING LABEL
If CURRENTLABEL.Tag = 2 Then
CURRENTLABEL.Left = 0
[Code] .....
I have tried to create a new label and override the Top value with a Long Value, but it still does not do the trick. Hhere is my attempt to overload the top value to an integer.
Public Overloads Property Top() As Long
Get
Return _Top
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Long)
[Code] .....
The charts are dynamically generated from a database and represent depths. Usually at least 10000 feet are plotted at 5 pixels per foot. So some labels will be created or dragged below this 32767 line regularly. Any way to be able to drag the labels past this limit, or possible another option to be able to view these long charts.
