I am doing my school on project on rs 232. it involoves VB. I have found out how to save text in .txt file in the code. But i have no idea when i save this particular text for instance with time and date oso..
For example my i can do this.I want to save " Hi i am VIJAY "
when i open the text file i can see " Hi i am VIJAY"
But what i want is When i open the text file i want to see " Hi i am VIJAY 10:35 24/01/2010 "
I am using VB 2008 and want to record a start date and time and then the stop date and time in a rich text box, i can get the start time into the box but so far can only stop the time instead of 2 seperate times, what i have is a drop down box with a list of computers 1-10 i was trying to get it so you picked a certain computer and that went into the text box then you started the timer and that was recorded, finally you stopped the timer and that was recorded but as i am a total newbie it does not work
I want to save datetimepicker value of date and time in two separate text files. Currently, when I select a date from datetimepicker and save it in a text file it saves both date and time as below:
5/11/2011 8:25:06 PM What I would like to happen is as below: Datefile.txt saves 5/11/2011 Timefile.txt saves 8:25:06 PM Alternative solution that can work for me would be, if the time (only the TIME) can be modified after saving as below: saved datetime into text file is 5/11/2011 8:25:06 PM
How can I modify the time only to say 12:00:00 PM. By doing so I would like to keep time as 12:00:00 but date can be changed by the user using the datetime picker.
I have an ASP.NET application with a SQL Server back end. I am storing all my dates in UTC format and doing the appropriate conversions to the local time zone of the browser viewing it. One of the pages asks for a start date and end date (no times).
I am taking the start date and setting the time to 00:00:00 hours (midnight) and I'm taking the End time and adding a time of 23:59:59, so that the date range covers the whole day. Now what I'm trying to do is do a SQL query to do a search for records in this date range. The problem is, the data in SQL is in UTC time and the user is typing their dates and times in their local date and times. My quickest solution was to convert the date and time to UTC, then search the records. However, by doing this, I am to believe ASP.NET converts the given time and date to UTC based on the server time zone. How can I convert a date and time to UTC time based on the time zone of the user?
Thought I'd see if Stack overflow is quicker than me testing something while I get a thousand interruptions from other work :)
I'm updating an old VB net application and trying to refactor some of the logic as I go. The app looks for data from a single date across a few tables and writes that view to a file.
Writing the query in SQL I'd get the equivalent of
SELECT * FROM table WHERE CAST(FLOOR(CAST(table.date AS float))AS datetime) = '15-Jul-2010'
Ideally I'd use
SELECT * FROM table WHERE date=@input
and add a date object as a parameter to a System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand instance
Are those two comparable? Will I get the results I expect?
In OrderDate text box, default date is today (e.g. 05/19/2010). Once user change it, how to code to save to SQL server as DateTime format? For example, user may change OrderDate as "05/12/2010" but will save it as "05/12/2010 09:17 AM" (time is current time)
i'm having a problem how to code to save the value of my dtpicker as string not in date/time value. i formatted my dtpicker as mm/dd/yyyy. i want it to save in my database as string format. my datafield in my database is in text format not date/time. is it possible to save the value of dtpicker as string format?
i want to save the value of date time picker control object to mysql but it kept saying error.the code perfectly works for text box values but it doesn't work for date time picker control.
to trace the days of a program installed in user's computer.However, the user can changes the system time of his computer to a advancing date. How can I get a SNTP time from internet to solve this problem?
The problem that I'm having is that when I try to select a different date, the text doesn't go away. That may make no sence, but let me tell y'all what I've done.
1: Created a GroupBox 2: Put a DateTimePicker in the GroupBox 3: Put TextBoxs in the GroupBox 4: Changed the DateTimePicker to look like this: A)Checked - False B)Allow Drop - True
I thought that if I changed that, then the text in the text box would go to that specific date. It didn't do that, it just stays the same. What I'm trying to do is enter text in say 3/7/11 and when I choose date 6/12/12 it will display blank text boxes for me to enter something different.
I have a program that reads a file with Pacific Daylight Time, I want users to see the time and date in their local environment.
At present I have in Australia a time difference of 18 hours, so I have a list box with -24 to +24 and currently set at 18, my code is elementary as long as I have moved past day one of the month it suits me personally, but I want to distribute my app, so I need something better.
The Now() function in VB.NET returns date and time which is different from the system time that I see on the right-bottom on the notification bar. It is 15 hours slower than the system time. Has anyone ever met this problem? I'm using .NET 2.0.
I'm try to come up with a way for a user to enter a date and time into a textbox and for that value to be saved as a datetime variable back into a database. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a clever way to restrict what values a the user can enter so that the datetime datatype isn't corrupted. I've been playing around with the date time picker but I cannot seem to get that to work for me. I'd like the user to either pick the date and time from a picker and save that into a variable. Or I've seen applications where the textbox will automatically have a formatting type of template that makes it hard for the user to enter an invalid date and time.
I have created a text box....a button and a date time picker control. I have showed the calander control on click of the button event....when a value is selected in the datetimepicker the value should be showed in the text box...I have done this....in the datetimepicker value change event
But then I want that the datetimepicker control to hide again...but this code I cant write in the value change event since if I write the hide code in datetimepicker value change event it will hide it every time...cant write in lost focus also since it will have to wait till the focus is lost. cant write the code in text box value change event since the value will be changed after every click in datetimepicker I want to write the code when the value in calander is doubleclicked...
I have two date time pickers , namely "Date_of_ReturnDateTimePicker" and "Date_of_IssueDateTimePicker". Now, what i want to do is, that when i press the "total" button, the value of issue date should be deducted from the return date value, and the difference in days should be put in a textbox.
I am getting an error where the data is retrieved from the MS Access Database "Date/Time" field.The attached the error. Other fields which have text data type are working fine
Using the datetime function to determine lapse time. (Subtracting one from another.) Then placing the answer into two text boxes one with the date and one with the time, later to be placed in a database as two seperate fields. Was thinking I could convert the date/time to a string if necessary then use simple stringmanipulation.... however fear it won't be good programming and will effect resources and end program speed.
I want to get complete date time from the available UTC Time.I am having Utc Time in the following format "1181782412" and want to create date out of it.I have tried
Dim convertedDate As Date = Date.Parse(Date.FromFileTimeUtc(129071462695206431))
I'm doing an error log in my code and I'm trying to output the errors to a text file with a specific date/time in the title so they can differentiate. I've tried things like logname = "C:Documents and SettingsSeDingDesktopErrorserrorsLog " & DateTime.Now.ToString() & ".log" But I get this msg "The given path's format is not supported." all the time.
What i am looking to do is to be able to save/load all the values filled into a form. For example The user has entered the
name: "Tim" address: "123 Fake Street" phone: ""
And then saves. When the come back and load this i want to be able to load it back exactly like that so the can continue with what they are doing. And if there are to open a different person they can continue with that one where they stopped. I want to be able to save them all at once and load them at once.
Just getting started in VB.NET. I would like to add X-number of text boxes at run time. And then be able to address them by their index or some sequential numerical value (like an array)
This is what I have so far:
CODE:
When I turn this into a loop to create multiple toolboxes, how do I assign a name to the controls, or will all of them be named "MyTextBox" ? I'll increment their position so thats no problem.
I have a datetime picker in one of our apps. When loading up the win form I need the date time picker to default to the Wednesday following todays date. Any idea how to do this? We are using .Net 1.1 for this app.
I'm using VB 2010 Express. I'd like to ask about tree nodes - in my application, the user can change the nodes and add more. When I leave the application, I would like to return and for the new nodes to still be there. I've tried My.Settings, but I've decided there must be another way to do it in a file. For each node, I need to save the key and text, and reload it next time.
