Formatting Output In List Box ?
Jun 7, 2011
I'm having trouble lining up data from a file with their respectable columns in a list box. I am using print zones to space out data evenly, but when i run the program the output is still messy. So I need lining up columns properly together. As of now, the first 2 list box items line up with each other perfectly, the data i am looping through to add to list box is not lining up correctly. I have changed my zones several times, but still no luck.
A chunk of my code (some) :
Dim fmtstr1 As String = "{0,-5} {1,20} {2,7} {3,7} {4,7} {5,7} {6,7} {7,8} {8,12}"
Dim fmtstr2 As String = "{0,-5} {1,20} {2,7} {3,7} {4,7} {5,7} {6,7} {7,8} {8,12}"
Dim fmtstr3 As String = "{0,-5} {1,10} {2,7} {3,7} {4,7} {5,7} {6,7} {7,8} {8,12}"
[CODE]...

Ex) Dim fmtstr as string="{0,15}{1,10}{2,8}" if I understand correctly the leftmost number is the zone number and the number to the right is the character width?

Is there a rule of thumb used to set the character width of a zone?
For example:
Dim fmtstr As String = "{0,-10}{1,12}{2,14}{3,12}"
lstcolleges.Items.Clear()
lstcolleges.Items.Add(String.Format(fmtstr, "College", "enrollment", "endowment", "public ss"))
This will align the text nicely into a list box. How do I determine how to set the character width?

I have been searching for a way to format output using writeline/write (streamwriter)using RTF tags and wondering if there is a syntax for this, if it exists. I have not been able to find a resource which clearly explains how to "pretty" up output sent to a file.
The reason why I am asking is because I want to "print" results from my program into a file that, at the very least, would be centered, tabbed and even bolded where possible without requiring the user to go and futz with it. I think I saw that Crystal Reports won't work with VB 2010 Express and, quite frankly, just want to create a file with output.

So I'm attempting to get three variable to print in a string, but I can't figure out how to make the Concat or Join commands to work properly. I've tried assigning the strings to a defined string variable and then "concatting" that and trying to do it in one big line. I keep getting an error either way. Here's what I have so far:
Str1 = PaymentNumInteger
Str2 = NewBalanceDecimal.ToString("C")
Str3 = MonthlyIntPayDecimal.ToString("C")

I am building an XML string programatically using the XmlWriter ...
sb = New StringBuilder()
writer = XmlWriter.Create(sb)
writer.WriteStartDocument()
[Code]......
I want to be able to output the XML to a TextBox control on a ASP.NET webform. When I do output the XML I don't get any line breaks or indentation in the XML. The XmlWriter does not seem to have any properties to set formatting. Is there anyway to retain formatting and indentation?

I'm using the following function to generate a list of users connected to a selected database. How would I change this to a single line for multiple identical results?For example: "sa (3) - MYCOMPUTER" rather than listing "sa - MYCOMPUTER" three times?
Function ConnectedUsers(ByVal SelectedDatabase As String, ByVal SelectedInstance As String)
Dim myCommand As SqlCommand

I would like to have my output in columns, and the numbers in two digit after the decimal.
I am writing a data validation app where the app asks the user for input like give me a number of double type: and hopefully the user will comply.
But the app will test some validation rules and then:
1) if the user simply pressed enter the app will tell the user all sorts of reasons why the input was rejected. And that part should look like a table with columns for the entry, if it passed true, otherwise false and then the reason line empty input. Or this number is a string.

How to format numbers in VB.Net. All I want is properly inserted commas in my final output. Such as:
lvwItem.SubItems.AddRange(New String() {ConvertToMegabytes(CULng(LogicalDrive.TotalSize)).ToString})
I have three functions which I use to convert various numbers to MB GB and TB. I would like to have the final output number be properly formatted with commas as necessary.
Private Function ConvertToMegabytes(lngbytes As ULong) As String
Return (CDec(lngbytes) / 1024D / 1024D).ToString("F1") & " MB"
End Function
Private Function ConvertToGigabytes(lngbytes As ULong) As String
Return (CDec(lngbytes) / 1024D / 1024D / 1024D).ToString("F1") & " GB"
End Function
Private Function ConvertToTerabytes(lngbytes As ULong) As String
Return (CDec(lngbytes) / 1024D / 1024D / 1024D / 1024D).ToString("F1") & " TB"
End Function

Working on a class project where one heading in a lisbox has to be indented while the subsequent information has to be right-justified. Not sure how this is done.Have tried writing code like:
'To list cost of parts in listbox
''Formatted so value is in U.S. currency
lstTotal.Items.Add("Parts" & ControlChars.Tab & ControlChars.Tab & ControlChars.Tab & parts.ToString("C"))
But using ControlChars.Tab over and over again doesn't seem very efficient. The spacing in the listbox looks uneven and the code looks more cumbersome--less easy to read.

I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?

While I understand there are properties of MailItem that would allow one to programmatically create a formatted email, I would prefer the ability to copy the body of an email that is already formatted to my liking (bolding, italicizing, embedded pictures/tables, set margins, etc.) copy and paste it to a newly composed email such that this formatting is preserved.
