When you do GetFiles() you can specify a search pattern such as *.txt. How can I specify multiple patterns. For example, in windows search you do *.jpg;*.bmp;*.gif. I tried that but no luck and the msdn not work. Is this possible?

changing the way the site search is done from just search a phrase as one string to searching a phrase "as multiple words" search. For example, if I search "cute puppy" right now, it will search it for "cute puppy" as phrase and won't match just "cute" and "puppy". The way the search is implemented is by passing a search phrase to a Stored Procedure in SQL Server.So now, I need to change to site search so when "cute puppy" is searched, it will search two words.... "cute" and "puppy" instead of just "cute puppy". Below is how the store procedure is implemented

Im making a search function for an application and they need to be able to search by any value in the DB in any of the three tables. Im wondering the best wayto about this. 2 of the 3 tables have the same columns while the last one is totally different. Below is what I kinda "thought" itd look like but no.
"SELECT * FROM cases, opencases, staff WHERE Crime ='" & txtsearch.Text.ToString & "'"
I need to query the results the user can search for anyterm and if it matches something in the columns it return it to the user. Im wondering if the best way to go about this is to maybe query all the tables and then put all the matching records in a seperate table and the dgv look at that table or how to exactly go about it.
I'm supposed to write a program that displays the following patterns, one below the other:

I get the first pattern using this code.

For j As Integer = 1 To i 'number of *
Console.Write("*")

When I try to do the 2nd pattern I get a square of 10 asterisks.Here's what I have:
For l As Integer = 1 To 10 'number of new rows
For k As Integer = 10 To 1 Step -1
Console.Write("*")

I'd like to tell a regex statement to get the text between two patterns IE: find /* and */ and get all text between it.
I can do Dim rRegex As New Regex("/*|*/"), which will find all matches of /* and */ in order, but what can I do to get the text between them?
(I think that regex is correct, I might be wrong though)
I want each Match from my rRegex variable to return the text between the two patterns in the regex, if that makes sense.
This program would allow users to click a button and display three different types of patterns (shown below). The user could also enter the number of rows they wanted to display and a character that they wanted to use for the pattern (*, &, etc).[code]...

Recently I needed to compare a suggested pattern for IDisposable and object finalization with the auto-generated one we which VS2005/VB.NET provide. We have used the auto-generated one a fair bit, but after looking it the two side by side I had a number of questions about the VB.NET implementation..

Overall I am confused by the supposed added value of having an extended code-path that executes when Dispose() is called explicitly(as opposed to having a common path that is executed regardless of whether or not Dispose() was called explicitly). how it does anything other than delay the actual release of managed resources if Dispose() isn't called directly. In essence it seems to only work to make the managed resources unreachable in the object graph, orphaning them until the 2nd GC run rather than freeing them at a point where they are known to be no longer needed.
Who started the pattern making in AVATAR pictures??I've seen none with circles, ovals or any curves in yet either.

View 2 RepliesEvery table I have has an 'UpdatedBy' field which lists the user who last made an update to the record. I need a way of searching every datatable for that username and returning the count of the rows where the LastUpdated field is equal to a parameterized username. How can this be accomplished without writing a seperate query for each datatable that does the same thing and running each query one at a time? I'm not sure if this can accomplished somehow in the dataset itself or if a SQL Function could do this.
View 2 RepliesI am doing a simple database project.I need to give the input in the database which is an access db from my input form and i have managed to do this part right.then i need to retrieve the details from the db using multiple search fields and show them in the datagrid view.I have 8 search fields(5 textboxes and 3 combo boxes). I also have included 4 other buttons which respectively clears the search boxes;clear the results of the gridview; show all results from the database;go to the input form and offcourse 1 search button.now all the buttons working fine except the search button. actually when i click on the search button if i include sql query for all the search fields only the first one works and also if i have clicked any other buttons before clicking the search button nothing happens, no result is shown and it happens the same if i search once and clicked any other buttons and come back to search, no result. I need to show the results in the gridview depending on the user input on those search criterias. user should be able to search in any combinations.I am using the below codings in my search form. the combo boxes are not bound.datagrid is bound to database though.

I am trying to search one column (Titles) of an Access database using an SQL query. The search entry comes from a split string passed to an array and inserted into the SQL command.
This works well, however, the results I get back are for entries containing EITHER of the keywords entered, not entries containing ALL keywords entered.
The code I am using is::::
Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearch.Click
dgvSearch.Visible = True

The loop is working, but acting as a new search as opposed to searching the results of the previous search.
is there a way i can get my datatable to have multiple constraints that are attached to a unique id? an example of what i'm talking about is if i have a unique machine but it's on many lines, can i show that somehow in a datatable? the reason i'm asking is that i have code that sorts the data by line number and shows the relevant machines in a combo box based on the line selection out of another combo box. i'm having to input the data into the datatable (as a starting point for the data base) and it's very tedious. i'm entering machines that have the same name in multiple rows because the line number is different. i can't figure out how i can add multliple values into my line number column so that it will sort properly when queried.an example of what i'm asking with regard to the datatable is as follows:
Machine LineNumber
slicer Line 1, Line 2, Line 4
conveyor belt Line 1, Line 6
So that when called to fill the combo box, the correct one is called.The code i'm using to sort right now is as follows:
Private Sub linecbo_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles linecbo.SelectedIndexChanged
