I have an app that contains a DataTable that I must summarize. In that table is a Status column (also the index order) and I want to write a loop in which I compute the count for each status. So I wrote my loop and tried to use the compute function of the Datatable class, but I cannot get it working due to some constraints - specifically this...
[Code]....
You can see what I am doing here is grabbing the string value of the Status column, and then trying to get a count of how many records have that Status. My ultimate goal was to cycle the Table and count each time the status changes. But the error I get has to do with where I store the Status in a String, and then issue the second parameter on the Compute function which contains a variable (sumString) and this is where Compute is crashing - and of course, I can see why - my Status is not literal and thus not in quotes.
Generally speaking, is there any way to manage this kind of thing? In my (very) old FoxPro days one would use a macro such as "Status = &sumString" and VFP would translate sumString to its literal. I have never discovered a way to do that in .NET.
I'm currently grabbing HTML from my site using webrequest and storing it in a string.

Would using a webbrowser control be a better idea?

I read the following question to download a web page whose contents is coded in UTF-8. The page is then converted into a byte array, while I'm using a String to read contents from the page.
I need to turn UTF-8 into Latin1/ANSI since that's what RichText and MessageBox seem to use (I'm getting funny characters).
Is there a more direct way to donwload a UTF-8 page and convert it into ANSI/Latin1?
Edit: When callig MessageBox, accented characters are not shown as expected:
Content = CStr(e.Result)
'Théâtre, Métro
MessageBox.Show(Content)
