I'm wondering, Windows is installed with a current language... Isn't it possible to get those strings from a file? On a XML/INI/Database-base? Something like:
Dim LANG As My.Computer.Culture.Language = My.Computer.Culture.Language.CurrentLanguage
Dim Cancel As String = LANG.Cancel
Debug.Print(Cancel)
'Output: Annuleren
The issue is in a windows based client-server application.In the GUI, the system date value is converted to string and is stored in a text box, which is displayed while the dialog gets loaded.How to change the format of date so that when the form loads the date is displayed in en-US culture irrespective of the regional setting of the system(for eg: regional setting of the system is "fr-FR").

I have multi language application where i am using "en-US" and "ar-KW" languages.I also have WinForm where I am using the DateTimePicker control.When the user logs in, if his default language is "en-US" it saves the record but when he has default language "ar-KW" then this date format is not saving in database, and produces an error. Why?
The datatype of the Employee DateOfBirth field is smallDateTime in SQL Server.I am using the following code in VB to save the record. There is a normal INSERT stored procedure in the backend.

I have a website with three domains .com, .de and .it
Each domain needs to default to the local language/culture of the country.
I have created a base page and added an InitializeCulture
Protected Overrides Sub InitializeCulture()
Dim url As System.Uri = Request.Url
Dim hostname As String = url.Host.ToString()

But of course the InititalizeCulture then overrides whatever button selection has been made. Is there any way that the InitialCulture can check whether a button click has occurred and if so skip the routine?

View 1 RepliesI have very simple project in VS 2005 (close to hello world). This project is referencing few other DLLs that I have built on the side using command line scripts. These DLLs are fine and working perfectly. None of these DLLs are defining a specific 'Locale', so they default to locale = 'null', and everyone seems to be pretty happy with that.However, one of these DLLs, say XYZ.dll, must link/reference a third party DLL which defines locale= 'Neutral'. I can see that quite clearly with ildasm:[code]If I remove the third-party dll reference from my XYZ DLL (removing some code then not linking against it), I can compile my basic VS project without any problem. The problem is that I do need to link against this third-party DLL and would like to use Visual Studio.Does anyone know about this "Culture name not supported" error?
View 1 RepliesI am working on a website web site where each user has a culture setting to allow control of resources displayed. The main page has two views, one the log on screen, the second the main menu.
When first loaded the page displays with the culture settings of the previous user (if any). If I then log on as a user with a different culture setting the view changes to the main menu without changing the culture. Go to another page and the user's correct culture settings are picked up, go back to the main menu, uses the correct culture etc.
This is logical but is there a way (without redesigning the site to have a separate log in page and main menu) to reset the culture to the new user's when switching view?
I have a drop-down asp:listitem box that looks perfectly clean to me. It functions like when the first time you change a language on that page (Say, English to Swedish), it does change the text to that language.
The second time you try to change the language (Swedish back to English -- or any lang), it just reloads the page and then you have to select English a second time to actually change the page back to English.
I tried removing lines from the code behind, one at a time, but nothing changed it.
My .aspx page is like this:

How can I convert String to Decimal in finish culture (fi-FI)? The following works well in (sv-SE) but does not in (fi-FI)

I'm learning about the cultureinfo and doing ok but there is one thing I can't work out.I'd like to know how to find out the display settings of the date for the user pc.For example, I have an American bought laptop using the us culture so the date will be MM/dd/YY but I have changed the date setting to read dd/MM7YY. So that means I haven't actually changed the inbuilt cultureinfo, I've just "altered" a setting and it's that setting I want to access. When my project starts I have a label that I want to read as dd/MM/YY.With another pc it might be different - the culture might be uk but the date setting might be changed MM/dd/YY so I want the label to read MM/dd/YY etc etc etc.If the cultureinfo hasn't been changed then I want the label to read whatever the date is set to etc.
View 1 RepliesI have:
1 ComboBox(cboCultureInfoNumeric) with the required CultureInfo.
1 Textbox(txtNumeric)
1 Label(Label1)
When the user change the Culture info the decimal point or comma change in the textbox(txtNumeric) nicely.What i try is to change also the text in Label1 by the culture info.If the user change the CultureInfo to German the Label1.text = �German�If the user change the CultureInfo to Spanish the Label1.text = �Spanish� And so on�
What I have do is :
1 - Set the Form1 Localizable property to true.
2 - Set the form's Language property to "German (Germany)".
3 - Set the Label1 Text property to "German".
VB make the file -> MainForm.de-DE.resx with name: Label.Text and value: German
4 - Set the form's Language property to "Spanish (Spain)".
5 - Set the Label1 Text property to " Spanish ".
VB make the file -> resx
6 - Set the form's Language property to "French (France)".
7 - Set the Label1 Text property to "French".
VB make the file -> resx
8 - �The TextBox with the numeric value�s change when the user change the CulureInfo but not the Label1, why?It work perfect when I put �Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-FR")in the MainForm.designer.vb before InitializeComponent function and in the New function.But I want to use the ComboBox�
I have a winform application written with vb2010.I changed the "Language" property of a winform of my application to german, only for testing purpose. I built the application and in my indebug folder it was created a new de folder with the localized resource file "appname.resources.dll". Then I set back the "Language" property to (Default) and "Localizable" to FALSE and built again the application, but the de folder with its appname.resources.dll were created again. I have controlled each form in my application, the My Project setting too,nothing points to any other culture. I deleted the whole debug folder, but after each build, I get always the de subfolder.I cannot understand what is changed in my application now: why does the compiler create a localized resource if I set back the form properties?I repeated the same for a new culture (afrikaans), to discover any changes in the form properties: I found nothing that could help me, but now I get two subfolders.: de and af

View 4 RepliesIs there some way of programtically changing the culture for a multi form application on startup so that the application will interpret date formats correctly. For example if the aplication runs on a machine with a en-US culture it would be able to take a date from a database in the MM/dd/yyyy format and convert it to a date object and when the same application runs on a en-GB machine it can take that same MM/dd/yyyy date and convert it into a date object without getting a date format exception.

View 39 RepliesIn VB.Net, is there a way of auto-detecting the culture of a string representation of a number? I'll explain the situation:Our asp.net web site receives xml data feeds for boat data. Most of the time, the number format for the prices use either a simple non-formatted integer e.g. "999000". That's easy for us to process.Occaisionally, there are commas for thousands separators and periods for the decimal point. Also, that's fine as our data import understands this. Example "999,000.00".We're starting to get some data from France where some of the prices have been entered with the periods and thousands separators the other way around as that's the way it's done in many European countries. E.g. "999.000,00". This is where our system would interpret that as nine hundred and ninety nine pounds instead of the nine hundred and ninety nine thousand pounds that was intended.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to upgrade a project from VS2005. It is a VB.NET project B that depends on a C# project that references a C++ dll, A.dll. I am getting an error saying 'Unable to find assembly A_class, Version 2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))

It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.
I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:
I have to write a function that returns array of strings.
How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.
Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?
I have been looking for examples to find the string between two strings. This top one works fine;
Public Sub ReadData(ByRef keywordStart As String, ByRef keywordEnd As String, ByVal filename As String)
Using reader = New StreamReader(filename)
[Code].....
Now the first one is fine - Ext_Volume is result of the string between the strings <Volume> and </Volume>. <Volume> and </Volume> are unique so this is straight forward.
However the second one - "^FDExp:" is unique, but "^FS" is not unique. There are occurances of "^FS" before and after "^FDExp:".
How do I get the string to search AFTER the occurrence, not before etc?
Dim str As String
