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 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

My first issue is that intGallons wont round up properly at 231, like in the image below, instead intGallons stays at 2. The second problem is with the format of listbox. I would like each variable under the proper column. I tried using
lstOutput = String.Format("{0,5} {1,15} {2,15} {3,15} {4,10} {5,15} {6,15}", intRoomNumber.ToString("n1"), intSquareFeet.ToString("n"), intGallons.ToString("n1"), decPaintCost.ToString("n"))
but I get an error about string not being able to be converted to listbox.

I've been making a scheduling program using the calendar object.I can manage to select any date with a single click with a message box pop up entering a memo for the date selected. After pressing ok, the memo is displayed in a list box, with date.
1.Unfortunately the date is being displayed twice - perhaps because i used .selectedrange in the handler ? i would like it to be listed only once
2. the memo comes up on a separate line, ideally id like it to be displayed on the same line as the date.i tried ListBox1.Items.Add(whendate, memo) but it cant compile, so ive had to put each line in seperately
3. I would like to mark the sundays and national holidays in red color (the calendar is only set for a year so i dont mind doing them by hand, however the only tool i can find in the Monthcalendar1 properties is MonthlyBoldedDates, and no color assignment [code]

I've start on another program and I'm confused whether to use a listbox or listview to display output. I have 2 books but neither mention the use of Listviews and they don't cover using Listboxes for displaying output, and will be used in combination with combo boxes as this is how the user will enter the information. I know I want to use a global variable to total scores if this makes any difference at all.

i am having trouble displaying the values i get from an IList(Of T) and displaying that in a listbox found on another form. I have used a for loop to get the values from the IList, then i can display that in a msgbox. for eg:
Dim j As Integer
Dim path As String = ""
For j = 0 To best_tour.Count - 1
[code]....
best_tour is ot type IList() path keeps the name found in the list everything works fine inside the loop..but it does not populate the lst_output listbox.I have tried using files, but in vain. It just get the values from the list but does not display that on the listbox.If that can help, then listbox is found in a panel on the form2, but taking it out of the panel does not affect anything.

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?
