Dim Foo as New FooBar
Foo.Property = "Test"
Loop
In VB.net, does this create a new Foo instance every for every loop? Or just one Foo instance with block level scope? Do all blocks (If..EndIf, For..Next) work the same in this regard?

I'm currently designing an assembly that will be used by third parties. One of the classes has a long process of TCP connections and it informs about its process using events. For example
''# Do stuff that takes some time
RaiseEvent CompletedFirstPartEvent()
''# Do stuff that takes some time
[Code].....
What I've seen if that if the handler of one of those events takes too long (or even worse, it blocks) I can have timeouts and it's hard for the developer to see that one class is not working fine because his handler is taking too long.
I was going to fire the events in a new Thread to avoid this issue but this looks strange to me because I've never seen something like that, what I've seen until now is the developer spawning a new Thread if his handler was going to be timeconsuming. So the question is:
What would you do? Create a new thread or force the user to create his own thread? (Or is -there a better approach that I don't know?)
I'm not looking for anyone to complete my "home work" assignment for my A-Level computing as I've done this now and I think it's impressive. What I am now looking for is help in extending what I have done and making it better.
History:I have built my application in Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition. It is a Console Application. After filling in the questionnaire the user gets given results and all this information is stored in a .txt document (Notepad). I want the data that is put in to the application to send infomation to the user's e-mail address. I have been looking around the internet and it says it could do it but it needs Outlook express.
I am creating an Excel add-in written in VB.NET. I would like to bind KeyDown and KeyUp events to the spreadsheet to record when the user presses and releases the arrow keys while navigating the spreadsheetIdeally, these events would be built into Excel alongside the native SheetActivate and SheetSelectionChange events, for example. Alas, they are not.

I have created a simple program which uses a two tier structure of SQL Tables.At the top level, one record holds the date of the activities and linked to it using its primary key as a foreign key, three subordinate tables hold time stamped records.The issue I have been unable to solve is that before adding any of the lower level records for a given date, a newly added top level record must be saved to the database.Doing this manually is simple - but can I rely on my users to remember to do this before they start plugging in the lower level data?I thought not, so I am looking to save the top level automatically.I've failed miserably but I refuse to believe that it's not possible.
View 14 RepliesI have multiple level of For Each and in each level, i have a Linq that is the 'In' criteria as in:
[Code]....
It will go inside each for (because the value is not nothing), however, it will only loop (next) in the very inner 'For Each t In tFor'. After it is finish inner loops, the outer Fors' or Next will not execute... even thought there are more than one values in that 'In'... like 'sFor' or 'fFor'. i've noticed while debuging, while break at the for (for example 'sFor', before stepping in), i get the error message:
"Enumeration yielded no results" when i expand the result for that variable and it will not step into it. but if i do not expand the result, it will step in. It seem that some how, once an element is accessed for that 'In' collection, it breaks (meaning does not loop for the rest of the elements) the next for that collection is this a bug or am i missing something in Linq? BTW: i believe it has something to do with the SqlDataReader in the Linq. I'm working with IAsyncResult.

I have been working on a VB app to edit an excel document. I want to keep my excel workbook in scope for the whole app.
For example here is how my program looks now
private sub
open workbook
end sub
private sub
reference workbook
end sub
I want a way to just call my workbook at the top and have all of my subs recognize it. I guess like a global variable or something.

how to declare scope for variables outside their class?
Here's what i have in a class known Create_User:
Public Class Create_User
Public conn As New SqlConnection(My.Settings.HotelConnectionString)
Public usercmd As SqlCommand
[Code]....
How can i increase the scope of these variables to be used in another class? I dont want to keep declaring them again and again.
I'm moving from VB6 to VB.net and there are a few things confusing. In vb.net, your program just automatically has a form, now the form in in a class and so it may or may not be there. In vb6, the main subroutine controls program flow and I don't see that in vb.net. However, my biggest problem is that I have a com dll that has a connect class with events. I need to be able to access these variable outside of that class. I don't understand how to do that. I can't seem to declare public withevents outside of the class and in the namespace so it can be shared with other code. Its say "not valid" in Namespace.
So what is the best way to do that. Do I create a set/get property for the class that holds this value? And, if I do that, is the connect class automatically instantiated as a part of the COM dll? Right now I don't instantiate the connect class, I assume the application does. But I'm not sure exactly how the property of the class would be set...perhaps I would need to call the property set from the on-connection method. Anybody know what the answer to these two questions are and this 3rd one? How can I have a variable that has "events" have scope across the entire project?
I am writing an App that automates file uploads from users desktops to a specified file server. On the first run of the app, I need the user to select a file server and save it for all other users of that PC. I thought I could do this
with application settings but it appears it is not suitable for this purpose. I need suggestions on how I can make this work.
I thought about a registry setting but the user may not have permission to edit the registry based on group policy/security settings.
I also thought about creating an XML file with the file server name that I can read from the installed project directory, but I was hoping there was a more streamlined way.
Below is example code of what I want to do:
Public Class Test

I am porting php code to vbnet (i'm a little better at vbnet than c#). In the php is the scope resolution operator.
Here's the bit:
$args = phpZenfolio::processArgs( func_get_args() );
Equivalent in c#/vbnet?The whole function is the following which i gues is equivalent to the sub new in vbnet.
public function __construct()
{
$args = phpZenfolio::processArgs( func_get_args() );
$this->APIVer = ( array_key_exists( 'APIVer', $args ) ) ? $args['APIVer'] : '1.4';

I have a Function for checking the input in a textbox and only allowing Numeric & Backspace; everything works fine so far. My form is for financials and it has about 20 textboxes; they all receive Numeric only data; there is NO alpha data on the entire form required. Note in the snippet below that I don't even need a decimal point as well.
Is there a way to handle ALL textboxes on this form without having to place the Function call in each textbox KeyPress event. took a long (5 year) hiatus from developing VB6

I have a public variable which seems to be going out of scope. I am confused as it has been dimensioned as a public variable: Public xlCell as As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range
I originally had all my code in the same module in the same project and it was wrapped within a For/Next Loop (Example 1). I decided to clean up my code and make it more modular (Example 2). All the code is still in the same module in the same project.
Upon doing so, my public variable is not recognized in any of the private subs that I have created. I keep getting the following error: Message="Object reference not set to an instance of an object." When I test the variable using ?IsNothing(xlCell) in the Main Sub I get False in the main sub. this tells me te variable is recognized. However as soon as the Call SelectCaseSub() is triggered, I get a True value for ?IsNothing(xlCell). Why is this? Shouldn't this variable be in scope regardless?

I'm trying to create a simple media player that will scan a directory for certain filetypes, add them to a playlist then play a random playlist entry - changing every x seconds.I figured this would be simple in VB and, to an extent it was. I have the code running that chooses the directory and plays the random file.I just need to now make this repeat every 30 seconds or so.I have all the coded attached under the sub for the 'open' function of the player so it's quite flat. I think I need to use a timer here, to trigger the routine to pick and play the media every 30 seconds?In doing this I think I need to break the variables out of the function I currently have as they need to be shared between the timer loop function and the central 'creating file list' function.
I'm having trouble - I'm no coder (as you'll tell!) and although getting this far was easy I'm now (I think) bumping into threading / variable scope issues which are a bit of a brick wall.I've tried making the variables public / global by declaring in the class rather than the sub but I get errors at runtime. Presumably because of how I'm creating the windows media objects? [code]

If I want to narrow scope of a variable in C#, I can introduce additional braces - i.e.:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)[code].....
In the ide, I can no longer reference y outside of the scope introduced by the new braces. I would have thought that this would mean that the variable y would be available for garbage collection.(it is interesting to note that when viewing the compiled code using reflector it appears that there is no difference with or without the additional braces)Is there any way similar to this to narrow scope when using VB.net? Does this have any impact on when variables defined in the inner scope may be garbage collected?
