Get Index Location Of A Piece Of Data In An Array

Sep 15, 2011

I am trying to import a text file into a data table using VB.NET. I need to loop thru each line of the text file and put certain elements of that line in a new row of the data table. The line may contain 50 elements, but I only need to get 15 of them. The very first line is a header row, which contains "File Name", "Object Name", "Object Weight", etc. The trick is the element locations move from file to file. For example, "File Name" element may be located at 0 in one file and then 15 in the next file. I need to find the exact location of my desired elements and save them to a variable. Then use that variable to locate the exact piece of data in the text file line to place in my new row.

The code below obviously doesn't work, but it kind of illustrates what I need to have done.

Try
With dt
.Columns.Add("fltObjectWeight", Type.GetType("System.Double"))
.Columns.Add("vchObjectName", Type.GetType("System.String"))

Comparing Array Index To Combo Box Index?

Nov 14, 2010

I am coding a program for a movie trivia game that randomly shows a movie quote and the the user selects a movie name from a combo box that matches. I used a array for the movie quotes and a comboBox for the movie names. I have coded a portion of the program but I am stuck on how to compare the array quote being shown to what movie the user selects from the comboBox. I have tried numerous different things but none seem to work right. The way I have it coded now it shows that every movie I pick that it is right even if it is wrong. I am going to show part of the code here and also attach the entire solution for anyone that needs it .

VS 2010 Array - Small Report Card Project - Pull 5 Students With Each Student Having 5 Test Scores A Piece

Jan 13, 2012

I'm basically trying to do a small report card project. I only need to pull 5 Students with each student having 5 Test Scores a piece. The full Code of what I have for the submit button is below. I have actually 3 questions.

1. I always seem to have trouble with them unless I initialize them when I dim them. Is there a better way than below

2. The below code works really well for Student 1 and all 5 test scores. Rather than do that code 5 times though, what is the best way for me to basically state that IF dblStudent1(intMax) = 4 Then Change dblStudent1(intMax) to dblStudent2(intMax) etc.

3. Would this be better suited towards a multidimensional array ?

Private Sub btnEnterGrades_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEnterGrades.Click

Dim strStudentNames() As String = {" ", " ", " ", " ", " "} ' Holds the 5 Students Names
Dim intMax As Integer = (4) ' Place Holder for Student Number

Index And Length Must Refer To A Location Within The String?

Jul 7, 2009

why this error happens with a bit of code i was trying? The code is actually intended to be for an onclick event, so it actually works there.

But im just curious as to why it errors as an onchange event. This is 9am pre-caffeine, so the reason is probably starring me in the face! On a form i have a text box, and a combo box. The combo box has various options in it, natch. Its a search form, which then fills a gridview with the results.

Drop down list options are: home number, mobile number, post code, Name, DOB

I thought id try and be "clever" and do away with the need for the combo box. Since a mobile number begins with "07", names are just characters, postcodes are character character number, and home number is all numbers and doesent begin with "07", and date of birth has /'s in it.

So i tried this to test the idea:

Private Sub AppSearchTB_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AppSearchTB.TextChanged
Dim TLength As Integer = 2

Index And Length Must Refer To Location Within String?

Sep 13, 2011

I am trying to get the first 50 letters, so I used the subString function to get it. As you can see, I used this code to get it:
<%# Eval("BannerDescription").ToString.Substring(1, 50)%>

But unfortunately it's not working and an error message is coming up:
Index and length must refer to a location within the string.
Because the user is the one who is controlling the data entry! Some times he gonna enter 10 letters other times maybe 1000 letter?

I tried them all but can we use it this way :
<%# IIf(Eval("BannerDescription").ToString().Length > 49, Eval("BannerDescription").ToString().Substring(0, 49), Eval("BannerDescription"))%>
