Difference In Date Format Causes Unexpected Error
Feb 4, 2009
Ok so i have a date time picker that holds a date that was entered by a user. My program works fine when ran on a computer using English(US) regional settings, but when i take it to a computer running any other regional settings, I.E. English(UK), which is the 2nd most common regional settings that will find its way to this program, I recieve an error because the Date format is backwards. What i'm curious about is how can i grab the system Regional Date format in order to rearrange my Date to fix its context?
I know that since the date is stored as a string i'm going to do something along the lines of this to break it apart:
Dim temp()
temp = Split(inputarray(7), "/")
inputarray(7) = temp(1) & "/" & temp(0) & "/" & temp(2)
i am almost 100% sure the above code will take a date in MM/DD/YYYY format and rearrange it to DD/MM/YYYY format.

I get this error when I run the application Incorrect syntax near 12, on debugging I found that this error is caused due to the # along with the date. Dim backdate as datetime backdate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1)
on binding the data to the grid to filter the backdate records this error is caused Incorrect syntax near 12.
myqry = " select SRNO,SUBJECT,ID where datesend =" backdate Now i am trying to extract only the date or shall I divide the date into day , month and year with DATEPART and take into a variable or convert the date or what should i do

example: inside regional date format setting i set "Short date format dd/MMM/yyyy" and inside vb.net program i set "strSQL = strSQL & ",'" & Date(Date.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")) & "'" ----> working fine. if user changed the regional date format setting to other format like "mm/dd/yy" facing problem during saving record into sql table. error date conversion. It's possible to avoid using computer regional date format from vb.net? or have any other way...

conversion of date
if i used -- Date.parse("28/01/2011")
it gives me error as "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime."
so then i modify above code as -- CDate("28/01/2011").it gives me error as "Cast from string "28/01/2011" to type 'Date' is not valid." I used convert.todatetime also date.parseexact but nothing is working..

I'm trying to write a program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date.This is what I've got so far:
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub
[code]....
That's what it looks like so far. I was wondering how you can automate the top label so it automatically comes up with the date when the program is run.Plus, I need to know how to display the dates difference (how many days have elapsed between the system date and the user's chosen date) in the bottom label.

In duplicated code using Lockbits in VB to obtain the address of Bitmap.Scan0, the first is OK, in all applications, but the second NEVER is. What is the explanation please? Surely both StartAddrA and StartAddrB should be valid pointers to Bitmap.Scan0 for calls to valid, functional ASM code in the functional DLL. The error is, it seems, in the VB Lockbits process. Using VS2010 Beta 2 and XP.

We have an application (Vb6) that gets installed at all of our client sites and they often (Vista/Windows 7) run into a the error message Unexpected error, quiting after a install on a new machine. The problem comes about when the UAC is on and the application is trying to create registry entries in areas it doesnt have access to because the application is running as a standard user. If the user runs the application as an admin the first time, everything sets up and life if good.
My question is, what is the most elegant way to setup those registry keys without forcing the user to run as an admin the first time? We could force them to run the applicaiton as an admin using a manifest file, but I dont want them to have to run as an
admin every time, just the first time.

I am reading a large number of XML files and do not want my program to bomb on exceptions. I am making great strides in reporting the errors, skipping the offending files and continuing the import process. However I am having problems with XmlExceptions. I get the following XmlException on the While textReader.Read() line of my program:
Quote:
XmlException was unhandled
Unexpected end of file has occurred. The following elements are not closed:
my:PicInsert, my:PictureGroup, my:myFields. Line 153, position 430817.
I am finding some of the reasons why, missing tags etc, but those aren't really my concern. I just want to report the issue and continue. I am thinking about some kind of check for a valid xml file but fear that that might not catch it all. For example I had a image tag in one of the files that was missing an alt="" attribute and I am not sure if that would invalidate the entire XML file.What would be the best way to trap and deal with the exception with out causing interuption to the program?

I am attempting to import data in a batch from an Excel Worksheet to a Sql Server database. Everything works except for the one date field in the spreadsheet. The date returned is off by four years from the value in the spreadsheet. Example: The Excel sheet has a date 10/24/2010 14:18, but when I look at the column in my query, the date is 10/23/2006 2:18. This pattern, 4 years and 1 day earlier, is repeated for every row in the worksheet.
The Excel column comes to me as a custom type, formatted m/d/yyyy h:mm. I receive this from an outside vendor and having them change the column is not going to be my simplest solution.
For what it's worth, the relevent part of the query is:
