Forms :: Input Starting And Ending Time
Nov 2, 2009
I want to make a very small program where the user inputs a starting time and an ending time that is in "clock time (?)" and the program converts it to total minutes in one box and a decimal total in a second box. I have 4 textboxes, 2 are masked text boxes (military time) for input and two are not, for output and the math is coming out weird.
If I put a start time of 0925 and an end time of 1015, the results I'm expecting would be 50 total minutes and .83333 total as a decimal. I don't think I'm converting the textbox input correctly as I'm not getting anything near that. I am using a button to calculate and another to clear the boxes, just FYI. Also, I'm not sure what to do about any times that span the noon hour except to use an absolute value.
Public Function Time()
Dim StartTime As Double
Dim Endtime As Double
StartTime = txtStart.Text
Endtime = txtEnd.Text
txtDecimal.Text = (Endtime - StartTime) / 60
txtMinutes.Text = Endtime - StartTime
End Function

it was regarding in vb.net text operations, i want to replace the text by finding some particular text.but the problem arises when the starting and the at the end delimiter of the string is something same every-time but middle thing keeps on changing so how can i work out with that?? str = Replace(str, "abcdparameter = xyz123;", "abcdarameter = my defined parameter;")
i tried to learn some regular expressions but i am not able to get that.the xyz 123 is same every-time....and also there is one delimiter at the end of the parameter string so anyhow you can select the whole line and replace it.

I'm using VB.Net in an ASP.Net 2.0 app to run some regular expressions that remove some unnecessary markup. One of the things that I'd like to do is remove span elements that don't have any attributes in them:[code]I'd like to remove the outer span elements. Unfortunately, my regex above gives me this as a result, since the closing span matches the first one it comes across:[code]

I'm trying to extract a piece of text from within the string, defining both a starting point and an ending point. For instance, say I want to search for the text found between "That is a " and " car" in the string "That is a red car", so it would return "red".I know you can use .SelectionStart and SelectionLength, but the length of the word can change, so the selection length can vary. What I want is to establish a specific starting point and a specific ending point from which to extract the text from the string.

How do you input binded Radio button if checked values "String" to the data base using query Like if check radio button Male the gender in the database will be "Male" And female if otherwise the ,database column is string in my db and my dataset is radio button the inputted record should have male or female in gender column. I'm confused also with date time picker in vb and it is date/time format in database column.

I have a user interface with pushbuttons, each starting a different process. Can I manage these pushbuttons via usb numpad? i.e. if 1 is pressed at numpad, pushbutton 1 will be clicked (so process 1 will start); if 2 is pressed at numpad pushbutton is 2 will be clicked and so on.

I am just starting to get back into VB programming, and I'm looking for a more elegant solution to an application I'm developing for a production line.I have a series of labels with manufacturing steps. The background color of the steps needs to change to green as the process steps through. Right now it is working as it should, it just seems a little too much like brute force programming.
Right now I'm using a Select statement to change the color of EACH label. The first portion of the Select statement is below. With this method I have to do this same thing for each case.

I create an app, with it when I click a button it opens a new form on a second monitor.
This works perfectly, but every first time the app start and I open the second form, on my primary screen (right side) I see the border of the second form. When I click the button again, the form is hidden, and when I click it again, it appears again but then the border is gone.

I would like to capture a start and end time in format hh:mm.Instantly I thought a datetimepicker would be the most suitable component (see code below)[code]Now I'm unable to find a datetimepicker solution to allow settings of intervals like in the numericupdown control and unable to even set a mindate/maxdate in time format. Does anyone have a solution for these requests? I then thought about using a numericupdown control to capture hh:mm time but I could not find a way of doing this in ONE control rather than two whichwould involve code to ensure only valid hours/min values could be selected i.e. 0 - 23 and 00-59 and other date to string conversion/validation.For such a commonly recorded element I'm surprised to find little in the way of solutions other than third party controls.Does anyone have ideas for a way forward for a control to capture time as hh:mm with interval controls for hours and minutes?

I have been trying to check if a user has input a specific time format into a textbox.For example
1- User enters time in hhmm format
2- Checks the input
3- If wrong, MessageBox.Show("Need hh:mm time format")
I have only used IF statement with IsNumeric to check for number input but was unsuccessful with various attempts I can think of for checking a time format as I need Option Strict On and have the following error: Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'String' to 'Date'.Is there a way to like check if the hh:mm has the ":" separator too?

I'm currently in VB class at my highschool and we just got chapter 6.1 to read on this online textbook that we follow. Anyway, we are doing loops now and the problem reads "Write a program to request positive numbers one at a time from the user in an input dialog box. The user should be instructed to enter -1 after all the positive numbers have been supplied. At that time, the program should display the sum of the numbers." So far I know this much
[Code]...
Now I know this isn't right But I can't find out how I'd pull out the numbers the user entered to get the sum of them and not include -1 because as it stands, when I hit ENTER with -1 the label just shows -1.

Trying to imitate a Messagebox - in that, a sub will not continue until the user "deals with" the pop up.
For example, in a sub, I want a Form to pop up, and ask a user a question, and give them 3 options. I want to make it so the user must click an option, and then the sub that called it can carry on it's way.
I believe I need a function to make this happen.

I am wanting to write an application which opens a delimited text file (either comma, pipe, colon, semi colon) and displays the file on the form. The same feature is in Excel when you import a data file. After selecting the file it shows the contents and you can choose the delimiter. Once the delimiter is chosen the data shown reflects this and updates to show the correctly formatted data.

I am new to visual basic. Below is my
Private Sub todayMonth_Validating(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles todayMonth.Validating
Dim tb As TextBox = DirectCast(sender, TextBox)
If Convert.ToInt32(tb.Text) >= 1 And Convert.ToInt32(tb.Text) <= 12 Then
tb.Tag = True
[Code] .....
Actually, I wanted to validate the todayMonth textbox just to input number between 1 to 12. The problem comes out when I do this procedure : Lets say I input an interger 11 and it passes the validation and proceed to another textbox. Then I click back to the todayMonth textbox, it shows this error :
"Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid."
I don't know why my value in the textbox is "null" or empty . I still saw the value 11 on the textbox.

I am creating a project with a maximized per-pixel alpha form. However, the normal input events (MouseDown, MouseWheel, KeyPress, etc) are never raised. I've been able to create some bare-bones functionality by overriding the WndProc method, but some things elude me. For example, I want to detect mouse wheel scrolling. When I check for the mouse wheel message, it works fine. Then I try to use the GetLParam function to get a MSLLMOUSESTRUCT with the scroll data. However, when I try to use it, I always get an error:"Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt." What can I do?-Must Program! Error: Not enough time to program
