I would like to define an interface in the same manner as IDispose. By this I mean that when the interface is implemented it would add functional code.
For example when IDispose is implemented it adds a fully defined Dispose method rather than just an empty sub routine.
How do I limit an Interface when defining it? What is the correct technical term for what I am describing?For example, I want MyInterface to only be implemented for objects that implement IList(Of T) and ICollection(Of T).

I am using Excel interop in my VB.NET program. My problem is that I can't seem to figure out how to write to Excel *and* define the Range using numbers.Alright, so I have objects being created depending on the file that the user opens. So there could be 100 objects or there could be none. Now each object has an array of values, and these arrays contain nearly 15000 elements. So here is what I want to do but I can't figure out how to escape using the LetterNumber:LetterNumber combination.
For every object I want a new column to be occupied and for every element in the objects array I want the row to be occupied. I figured the easiest way to do this was using a for loop but, again, I can't use numbers.
For columns = 0 to NumberOfObjects
For rows = 0 to NumberInArray
Cell(0,0).Value = myObjectsCollection(column).Array(rows)
Next

How do we create relation ships between tables using a sql query?im using MS Access and VB.net.
View 2 RepliesI used to do this is VB6:
Type Record
A As Long
B As String
End Type
Dim Rec As Record
When I keyed in "Type" in my declarations, I was asked to change it to "Structure". After that, I was not able to define anything inside. So, what do I need to do?
I have to define a name for a varying-length column of cells. The name is used later to define the range for a Data Validation List. I just cannot figure out (and the Help Function isn't assisting) how to define the Name, say "DropOrdNum" using a variable as the address for the last cell in the range. It is easy to define a name for "O13:O2000" - no problem, but then I have a whole lot of blanks in my drop-down list. But how do I define a name for "O13:LastCell", by making "LastCell" the Range Variable (am I correct in this) for the address of the last cell in the active range and then defining the name "DropOrdNum" as being the range "O13" to either "O(the row number of the last cell)" or "LastCell", being the address of the last cell in the active range, which varies by the hour?

View 1 RepliesSo my latest project focuses on sending txt commands over from my cell phone to my email, which gets read by a program, that carries out the specified command. My latest command i want to implement, is being able to define words, and have it send me a txt back with the definition.

At first, i tried to read websites, and simple redirect a webpage to google definitions, but that led me nowhere.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a property and declare it as a dictionary. This property will be updated and called upon throughout my project. I may be complicating the issue but here is what I have...

What I wish to do with the dictionary is to keep a record of the amount of items selected, the Key will be the Integer in the dictionary and will be the ID of that item in a database while the String will be the name of the item matched to that ID in the database.The user will be allowed to enter up to no more than 10 items at a time (overkill but necessary for the unknown).I was originally going to use an array statically declared allowing up to 10 items (eg. Private Shared m_ItemName(,) As String = New String(9,9) {})

View 1 RepliesI have created a custom control using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008 that gives extensive mapping and tracking functionality to a search and rescue app. The problem I am having is that in a number of places I need to define the path to the main applications executable in order to find a number of directories the control needs to function properly. Everything works fine when I am using it in VS but when I try to embed the control in a form in a separate solution I get the following error:

This seems to indicate that it is looking for the GISDataDefault directory in the Visual Studio program path but I have used Application.StartupPath to define this location throughout the control.
This error only occurs when attempting to embed the control in a form outside of the controls solution. The solution I have created to develop this control has two projects (one for the control and one for a test form to do the debuging)
