Double To Decimal Conversion Error
Feb 11, 2009
I am writing a program that asks the user for their name and the number of pieces they completed. The employees are paid more depending on the amount of pieces they have completed(i.e. <200 = .50 per piece, 200 to 399 = .55 per piece, etc.). I have to display the amount earned when the user enters the info and hits the calculate button. I have to use Select Case.
I was thinking this would be an easy program but I keep getting an error for each Case saying "Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'Double' to 'Decimal'. I don't understand why it thinks it is a double. It says I can correct this problem by adding "Cdec" before each equation(i.e.

So, yes, I've tried with these three formats, and the problem remains the same:I have a string, "s"For Each s As String In stringarray and this array is recieving data from a streamreader that is reading a csv file. The data I'm having dificulty reading are these very specific numbers(yes, only these numbers, because phone numbers get home safe and sound).The numbers I'm talking about are usually decimal.ValueList.Add(Convert.ToDecimal(s))
Now, when I convert them like that, they always bring a "D" alongside with them. I've personally checked the string multiple times, and it just has a "1", and somehow, my list recieves "1D" as a number, same thing happens with decimal numbers(0.29D for example). I've tried with Doubles and Integers, the result is the same.

a user will enter a number, n, which ranges from 1 to 30. they will also enter a "P" or an "S" (sum or product). depending on which was selected, it will calculate the sum or product of the numbers from 1 to n.i'm having a conversion error on line 5 stating "Conversion from string "S" to type 'Double' is not valid."

I have code that loops through a string array to add words one at a time to a line of limited length. I am trying to fit a phrase on up to four lines, centering the words on each line. My code appears to add the first word but on the 2nd word I get a "conversion from string "IS" to type 'Double' is not valid" error.
Here is my code so far:
varResult = Split(strPhrase)
intWordCnt = UBound(varResult) 'count words in phrase
'make words fit on one line
[Code]....
The phrase in strPhrase is "GOD IS LOVE"
I don't understand why I am getting this error when I didn't on the first loop through the code and it Put the word "GOD" into the line.

I've been just making random programs trying to get the hang of the new language this time I was making a leap frog game where it switches back and forth beetween frogs every time a button is pressed. It also checks if the frog can land in the text box above the button pressed, if there is another frog there a message box will pop up saying sorry space is filled other wise the frog should land there.
[code]...
The error message says "Conversion from string "frog1" to type 'Double' is not valid." I understand what a double is but I've tried And If and that causes a bunch of errors.My Question is whats wrong with this cod and how can I make a double if statement???PS I did try to make an array to shorten this but thats in a different fourm will post URL later

I wanna perform a function like this. When you save a record, I need the primary key of that record to be auto-generated (X001). Say, when you create a new record and save it, it should be saved like X002 automatically.So to test this before I implement that on this project I'm working on, I created this little program.form.png
All its supposed to do is, when you click on the OK button it shows a code that is fetched from a database table. (X001). Then when you click on it ober and over again. The number should increase. X002, X003, X004... so on.Here's my code
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Public Class Form1
Private Sub btnOK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOK.Click[code]....
But when I run it, it throws this conversion error.exception error.png.I know its pretty straight forward so I tried to correct it with what I know

For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?

If I have the code:Dim x as Decimal = 100.0m
Is it casting from a double to a decimal implicitly. How would I do this explicitly in vb.net?

I'm doing some error debugging trying to get the errors on our website down to a minimum and there seems to be an error that is popping up quite a lot Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid.
I'm unable to replicate this problem but I can see that it is happening.I've been looking through the code in one of the pages and strolled across this
Dim varWeek As String
If varWeek < 10 Then
'Do something'
End If
Could this be causing the problem as it is trying to see if a String is less than 10 which is an Integer?As I said before as I am unable to see this error in the first place so changing this to an Integer doesn't change anything on my system.

I have a bad bug in my program where if a user presses the check(calculate) button when there is no input in the textbox the program displays this error: "Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid." I would like to resolve this but I am not sure how to do the conversion. I was thinking possibly CType but I am hearing talk of parsing. How do I go about this? the textbox is called mskTxtInput and the button object is called btnCheck which does all the calculation and processing.
Private Sub btnCheck_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCheck.Click
pic1.Visible = False 'hide picture
pic1.Image = My.Resources.A

Let's say I want to convert a Double x to a Decimal y. There's a lot of ways to do that:
1. var y = Convert.ToDecimal(x); // Dim y = Convert.ToDecimal(x)
2. var y = new Decimal(x); // Dim y = new Decimal(x)
3. var y = (decimal)x; // Dim y = CType(x, Decimal)
4. -- no C# equivalent -- // Dim y = CDec(x)
Functionally, all of the above do the same thing (as far as I can tell). Other than personal taste and style, is there a particular reason to choose one option over the other?
EDIT: This is the IL generated by compiling the three C# options in a Release configuration:
1. call valuetype [mscorlib]System.Decimal [mscorlib]System.Convert::ToDecimal(float64)
--> which calls System.Decimal::op_Explicit(float64)

I am working on an application that allow the user to store data as numbers.These numbers are later on used for calculation. The number can be of any type and are saved as string. The problem is when they are used for calculation how can understand when it is better to treat them as doubles and when as decimals?

How come a double and decimal treat 3 and 3.0 and 3.00 different?
For example:
Dim dbl As Double = 1 / CInt(TextBox1.Text)
MsgBox(dbl)
If I enter 3 in the TextBox I get: 0.33...
If I enter 3.0 I get: 0.033...
If I enter 3.00 I get: 0.0033...
How do I treat them all as 3?

I write a program to convert Decimal numbers to Binary numbers. It is working well. But I want to control the bits. i.e - We can write 31 as a) 11111 or b) 011111. When I run my program it displays 11111. I want to take input bit from a text box and display it like 0011111 or 011111 or what ever bit I input. How can I do that ?
Private Sub DecToBin()
Dim i As Integer = txtDec.Text
Dim binary As String = Convert.ToString(i, 2)
txtBin.Text = binary
End Sub

I'm writing a small program that will convert a negative number (e.g. -200) to a hexadecimal number (e.g. FF38). And back to a decimal number. FF38 back to -200. (I can only use two bytes when converting back and forth.)
Question: is there a function in VB that will help?

here is a very important matter to be corrected as soon as possible. generally,type double can display an answer correct to more than 20 decimal places. yes,it works fine until here except for exponential system. whenever i try to find a decimal raised to the power of a proper fraction, i get a correct answer but only upto 13 decimal places. that is not fair at all! it is important to get as high precision as possible. consider this example:-

i want that number of correct decimal places or approximation,which a windows 7 calculator has. i believe that this is someway easy to get rid of. please support.it is important for programs like calculator,worksheets,databases,etc.

I'm struggling to solve this problem and am throwing it out to y'all...
For example, if I had a value of 6.5, (representing 6.5 feet), I'd want to separate that value into two values:
6 - 12" sections
1 - 6" section.
This initial value could be any number from 3-16, in .5 increments. (3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, etc.)
