What would be the best approach in Vb.Net to generate music notation by importing a MusicXML (example below)

I am trying to have a firm grasp of VB.NET and wondering if there is a way to use a double dot notation instead of the single dot notation people are normally accustomed to?The double dot notation that I want to implement is shown directly below:
PersonData.Birthdate.IsValid
Currently, the only way I know is by using the call shown below which I suspect is not using the full capabilities of .NET:
Validations.IsValid(PersonData.Birthdate)
My code is shown below:
vb.net
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
modVar.intDay = 25

I'm trying to make a "guess the musical interval" game, which will play two separate random audio files in succession.So far, I've got it doing that quite well. Here's my issue:I have a list of check-boxes listing off the different intervals that I want potentially hear when I click btnPlay. i.e., if every musical interval's checkbox is checked, I want it to potentially play any interval (unison - octave). Easy.However, if I uncheck "unison" I want my random number x to be not equal to my random number y (x <> y)If I uncheck minor 2nd, I want random number x and random number y to never be 1 number apart (x - y <> 1)?
Here's my code, I'm sort of getting lost here. I can't get inequalities to work, it says "expression is not a method."
Public Class Form1
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

Our programming teacher taught us to use the Hungarian notation (e.g. intMyInteger, strMyString,...) while programming.But I have heard somewhere this isn't actually used in the professional world. Is this true?
Edit: I just found out this is actually "Leszynski"
I've created an application where our clients can have access to our program by logging in. It uses our database for most information. I want to implement a richtextbox where it saves notes but i don't know if i should be saving that information as a file or what. Also I also have an application that handles everything that deals with our clients I also want to implement a messaging system that can leave a message to the client upon opening the application if they are missing any information that we require. Can someone point me the right direction on where to learn about this.
View 2 RepliesIs there any official notation for private fields? Like mVar, m_var or another notation?
View 10 RepliesI've got an app that sometimes stores some decently small numbers, such as 0.000023425. These numbers get loaded up in TextBox controls for users to edit.
Dim number As Double = 0.000023425
someTextBox.Text = number.ToString() ' Shows "2.3425E-05"
As mentioned, the text that shows is 2.3425E-05, which isn't exactly intuitive for the user to see, plus I have numbers even more precise (out to 19 decimal places). I would like the output to be fixed point. Of course I could easily and cleanly do:
number.ToString("F20") ' Shows "0.00002342500000000000"
But then there's an annoying number of zeros left over. So, to fix that, I could do:
number.ToString("#,##0.####################") ' Shows "0.000023425"
Which is what I want, but is there any better way to do it than to have that giant ugly format string there? So, ok, it's not that ugly, but surely there's a different way, right? My goal is to show the raw value being stored in the DB in a friendly way, and I would rather not have to force a format on the number at all.I found that changing the underlying datatype to Decimal solves the issue.
Dim number As Decimal = 0.000023425
someTextBox.Text = number.ToString() ' Shows "0.000023425" instead of "2.3425E-05"
So it sounds like Doubles aren't precise enough to be displayed normally?
The only post I can find on this matter is one that coverts the double to a decimal before converting it into a string. However the numbers I'm using are far larger than what a decimal can store.
Example: 1/(16^10)
So how can I convert the solution to the problem above. Which equals 0.00000000000090949470177292824, to a string value that is exactly as it's shown?
Cause when I convert this to a decimal I still end up with a string in scientific notation..
I can not column 4 of my Datagridview1 to display numbers as ###,###,### with not decimal places it seems stuck in Scientific notation mode, even though I have set it several different ways in the menus.How do I set it in the program like I set the column width.
DataGridView1.Columns(2).Width = 80This is in VB ExpressGary
I've written a small program that does some calculations and I want to display some of the results in scientific notation. For example, I want to display 0.005 as 5.0E-3.

I am deveolping a charting program and have a need to have dynamic draggable labels on the chart for notation purposes. Everything works fine until I try to drag a label past the 32767 (16 bit limit).
Here is the code that I drag the label with:
If ISDRAGGING = True Then 'DRAGGING LABEL
If CURRENTLABEL.Tag = 2 Then
CURRENTLABEL.Left = 0
[Code] .....
I have tried to create a new label and override the Top value with a Long Value, but it still does not do the trick. Hhere is my attempt to overload the top value to an integer.
Public Overloads Property Top() As Long
Get
Return _Top
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Long)
[Code] .....
The charts are dynamically generated from a database and represent depths. Usually at least 10000 feet are plotted at 5 pixels per foot. So some labels will be created or dragged below this 32767 line regularly. Any way to be able to drag the labels past this limit, or possible another option to be able to view these long charts.
I am working on a project that involes reading an Excel file, picking through it, then creating a flat CSV file. One of the the data elements I am picking up is a 9 character string that may be numeric, or contain one or more alpha chatacters. Excel has a nasty habit of converting long numerics to scientific notaion. I can overcome this by converting the "general" string to "TEXT".
However, there is one instance where I can not get the function to work...the string is "90333E108" ( the CUSIP for USU). Regardless, the text string is saved properly into the CSV file. When opened in a text editor, it reads correctly.
When opened with Excel, it is in scientific notation. Changing the field to "text" from "scientific" still displays "9.03E+112".
how to create an csv file that Excel will open and read correctly?
You can test this by creating an Excel workbook, format all cells as TEXT and add the following data:
90333E108

can i use an inverse notation in the databindings to enabled or disabled one checkbox?I have a form that has several controls binded, and if i have true in one field in the database i need to check checkbox and disabled it.Something like:

chk.DataBindings.Add("checked", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
chk.DataBindings.Add("enabled", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
This can be done directly?
I'm working with Ticks a lot at the moment and when setting a timespan/similar, I find the shorthand exponent notation 3e6 far more easy to read at a glance than 3000000
VS converts to the long form as soon as it tidies up the line.
Is there any way to turn off the editor feature which reformats this?
for example i have a.exe and b.exe ( the a.exe is an vbApp, and b.exe is an executable file ), now.. it is possible to include the b.exe into a.exe and then running it from a.exe, for example importing the b.exe into vbProject and then running it without extracting it.

I have created a web service in a virtual directory using VS 2008. I have tested the service by going to the .asmx page and everything is working fine. So I selected the "Add web reference" option under the solution and typed in the .asmx URL. It found the web service successfully and added the reference to the project. However, when I try to import the service namespace using the same name as the directory under the "App_WebReferences" folder, it doesn't recognize the name and gives me an error if I try to import it. Have I missed any steps in the process?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to write my first DLL and am struggling to get it working correctly and am receiving a variety of errors. For my Hello World DLL I was trying to follow this page [URL].. but as it was very old and referring to VB 6 I am now trying to use the instructions on this page: Essentially, what I have done is to follow all of the instructions on the second link, but then instead of calling it from C++ I call it fro my VB application (I have successfully managed to call DLLs from VB in the past). When I try to call the Add function (or any others) I get a BadImageFormatException error thrown saying "An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)" but I don't know what I am doing wrong. I have tried calling an alternative C++ function that is declared as a void and takes no arguements in order to completely avoid the problem of matching the data types but I get exactly the same error.
I gather that this is sometimes to do with target architectures, and have tried setting the C++ compiler to build it as both a Win32 DLL and as an x64 DLL, and each time changed the VB settings to match the outut type of the other but this doesn't seem to make any difference, and for some permutations even makes it worse with it saying that it can't find the entry point in the DLL that I'm calling.
I am completely new to this and am now at a loss for what to try and what could be going wrong,. The VB import is as follows:Private Declare Function Add Lib "DLL_Test.dll" (ByVal a As Double, ByVal b As Double) As Double Private Declare Sub HelloWorld Lib "DLL_Test.dll" ()
I inherited a DLL project developed in VB6; this project has to be integrated to a VB.NET GUI. At the moment, the project is integrated succesfully except for one detail that it is taking a lot of my time.
Every time that has to load a form from the COM DLL, the execution of the program loops and gives an OutofMemoryError -- I imagine the error is because the executing is looping by trying to load and reload the Form1 from the DLL. So, is it possible to import graphical controls and components along the DLL, such as Form1? or, do I need to separate them in order to import the DLL succesfully?

Ok, I've been fighting this for days and so far haven't found very much helpful information on the web. Apparently this isn't a very popular thing to do since there isn't much out there. I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I don't know very much about dll's or implementing classes in vb, so please correct me if my thinking is wrong.If it's relavent I'm using Visual Studio 2010.I'm working on a much larger project, so I've created a greatly simplified version to test and and ask questions about.Here's the situation:I've created a class in c++ that I now need to create an interface for in vb. As I said before I've created a much simpler class and compiled it as a dll. There are two functions in the dll:
[code]...
The setTestVar function simply sets the value of a member variable, and getTestVar returns the value of that variable. I load the setTestVar function from the dll like this:
[code]...
Then when I click a button, I call:setTestVar(9) This results in an "AccessViolationException was unhandled" error. "Attempted to read or write protected memory...."After thinking about it, I guess this would make sense if the constructor in the dll was never called (and thus the variable into which I'm trying to store data doesn't exist).So the question becomes, how do I call the constructor in the dll from vb such that I have some sort of handle or reference to that object when the call returns from the dll? Without a handle, I won't be able to access any of the member variables. Is this thinking close to being correct? Or is the problem something entirely different?So again, how do I call the constructor in the dll (from vb) and somehow have access (from vb) to the object that it creates?

View 3 RepliesIn VB, when we adding a new references - in my case web references -, it simply type namespace followed by the class name to make a new object.For example:
Dim obj As NamespaceName.ClassName = New NamespaceName.ClassName
Then I apply this concept in C#. So my code will be:
NamespaceName.ClassName obj = new NamespaceName.ClassName
...and it doesn't work.Actually, is there any difference about Importing Namespace between those two?And also can you give me a little explanation about Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports in VB?
UPDATE:My point is why "In C#, When I've typed NamespaceName, the ClassName was not listed in the Intellisense?".However, it did well in VB, do I have to import something?Maybe, there is something to do with the term "Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports". (CMIIW)
