Here is an example of my xml doc:

However, only the first phone number (Office) displays in the listbox. The phoneinfo collection has both <phone> elements, but the For Each statement doesn't seem to iterate thru.
Is there a way to remove 'this' item from a collection, i.e the one I'm working with, or do I always need an index?
For each ThisItem in MyCollection
if a=true then MyCollection.Remove(ThisItem)

I'm building a WP7 (VB.NET) app and have a custom class, PinInfo, of which I have two ObservableCollections, TempPins and FavoritePins.
In various parts of the app, I need a unique identifier to get a reference to a particular PinInfo in the collection, so at present, I assign an ID to the PinInfo when it's added to the collection, then later get a reference to the pin via the ID.
For example, if I create a button to delete a pin, I set its tag to the pin's ID, then the button click handler reads the button's tag to get the corresponding pin from the collection (via LINQ).
I generate the ID by adding one to the last-assigned ID, but these lists are often modified (i.e. items removed), so I end up with needlessly large ID numbers (e.g. just a few items, with IDs in the thousands).
I have a collection as such
Private Shared ReadOnly thermoPaths As New ReadOnlyCollection(Of String) _
({
"thermometer_000_108x320.jpg",
"thermometer_010_108x320.jpg",
"thermometer_020_108x320.jpg",
"thermometer_030_108x320.jpg",

Is there any way to get the index of the changed item? I couldn't find any examples.
View 1 RepliesI am using VB .NET 1.1 and wanted to make sure if inside a key value pair class "Dates" (collection type) a key by name "TerminationDate" exists.
If Not Dates.Item("TerminationDate") Is Nothing Then
'Do x y z'
End if
But this is throwing an exception: Argument Index is not a valid value.
In a list of timers, how do I determine the index of the item that elapsed without having to iterate the collection as shown below (e.g. can I pass a paramater to OnTimedEvent, or can the collection raise an event to say which item fired???). It's the individual timer index that I need as I'm using it to refer to something else.
(I wont know how many items I'll have in the list in advance so I can't create an individual event handler for each timer - I don't think I should even if I did).
Public Class Form1
Private _timers As New List(Of System.Timers.Timer)
Private Sub Form3_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Can I use LINQ to return an item in a collection that is the same TYPE as the items in the collection? I am a LINQ Noob trying to avoid looping.
Dim mostRecentlyCreatedQuestionnaire As ParentQuestionnaireItem =
CType((From P In questionnaireCollection Order By P.Metadata.CreateDate Descending).Take(1), ParentQuestionnaireItem)
I get an "unable to CAST" error when I include the CTYPE function. I kind of expected that error, but I imagine that if I coul dnot do this, LINQ's usefulness would be diminished and therefore assume that there must be a way..

View 9 RepliesI am creating a simple website using the language of VB.NET, I am having trouble with one part at the moment and could really use some help.
At the moment I have items that are stored in a database, when the homepage loads these items are added to a Gridview which allows the user to select the items they wish to add to their shopping cart. Once an item is selected from the gridview it is added to a collection. That collection is then added to a Session. This is the code I have for completing that task.[code]...

I wanted to create a custom control with a custom Item-Collection in it.(Similar to the ListView Items, but with other properties)I wrote a Class that holds properties of a single Item data (ClassItemData) and another class that "Inherits System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection(Of ClassItemData)". The Collection class contains a public event (ItemCollectionChanged) which is raised when "ClearItems", "InsertItem", "RemoveItem" or "SetItem" is called. (I used "Overrides" on all these functions and added the Raise Event to them.) The event is handled in the custom control itself and causes the control to refresh/repaint itself. The collection class contains also "Default Public Overloads ReadOnly Property Item(ByVal index As Int32) As ClassItemData" which returns the Item at the speciefic index.
The control refreshes itself when I place the control on a form and use code like: ControlName.Items.Add("TestItem") Unfortunately the control does not refresh itself when I use: ControlName.Items.Item(0).Visible = False The value of the Item itself has changed after this, but the control does know about the changes and does not refresh itself. If I do a manual repaint/refresh of the control, it looks all fine, but it does not work automatically. Does anyone know, what I have to add, so I can handle an event or something in the control when a property in the ItemData class has changed? How do I recognize changes in existing items and raise an event in the custom event?
Is it good practice to store sub-collections of item X inside a parent collection of item X for caching 'filter-queries' which are performed on the parent collection? (They won't be used together (as in color AND type).) Or is it also ok to just Loop over the collection and return the correct entities in a temporary collection?

View 15 RepliesI have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

I've been working with a CMS called InsiteCreations 2008. I'm running into an error I just can't wrap my head around. I would even be willing to compensate anyone a small amount over paypal, for a solution. The error is rare in occurance, and appears when clicking about 3-4% of links to other pages within our CMS.The full code page is quite large, but there seems to be only one function associated with the error. The error also only appears when not logged into the CMS. If logged into the CMS, clicking the link simply displays the page as normal. I have already checked permissions on the page from the CMS admin console, and it is public.
The error message is as follows:
Server Error in '/' Application.Collection index must be in the range 1 to the size of the collection.
Description:
An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
