I have to make this program to keep track of product description, ID, price, and quantity. I am manually coding some and the user can input products as well. I want to display the product and it's ID in a listbox and put price and quantity in seperate labels. [code] My question is how do i keep the array index numbers sorted so when i click an item in the listbox it will show the price and quantity in the labels for them?
View 1 RepliesI have a structure called 'Scheme' and in my program I want (ideally) an ArrayList of 'Schemes' (so i can add, remove schemes etc.). However, within the 'Scheme' structure, I want to have an ArrayList of 'Item''Item' is another structure. Are there any solutions out there for iterating through these arrays quite easily?
How can I easily add multiple Items to a Scheme and mutliple Schemes to my Scheme array. Code is below. When I try to add Items to a Scheme, I get the 'Object not set to a reference of an object, try the 'New' keyword', but you cannot declare 'New' keywork within a structure.

And then Im suppose to make four buttons recieve, ship, value, and print and it suppose to update the new quantity on hand text box this homework is really getting on my nerves Ive been tryin to do it for 2 weeks this is what i have

I read in the Book "Mastering Microsoft Visual Basic 2008" about "User-Defined data types".The example given is creating a Structure as follows.I wanted to check that so I wrote all the code given; I used a TextBox and a Button for this.(I didn't include the "CheckDate" here; that is in the book)
Structure CheckRecord
Dim CheckNumber As Integer
[code]....
The problem is this does work.What I get is "00000". and I found out that the "Checks(4)" Array does hold any value ie: on keeping the cursor over that, it shows "CheckAmount 0.0, CheckNumber 0 , CheckPaidTo Nothing ".
I'm currently doing this project where i have to create a program that let's the administrator manage students (and their tests.) I have decided to use Random Access file in this project.because structures will need fixed lengths...i don't know how will i search through the students (a function of the program) when each student structure has a different length because of the number of tests they've done.* I have created a variable in the aStudent structure so that i can know the number of tests a student has done...but don't know how to use it.

I want to create a relational database in VB2010 and I am attempting to accomplish this goal by creating a structure of records to be stored in a Random Access File.For each record, I want to organize each fixed-length record so that 4-integer sets of data are stored into a a multi-dimensional array.But when I try to write the code below at the module level, I get an error.

of Random Access File [code].....
Since I want to read/write/save the data in this structure to a Random Access File with a fixed record length size, I need to exactly specify the size of the record...which is, of course, determined by the array's dimensions.If I could accomplish this strategy, then I could search this random access file for a match of search criteria consisting of 4-integers with any of the 4-integer sets of data in each record and thus find, edit, delete and search records...therby retrieve information from my database.
Is my program design inefficient? Is there a better way to handle perhaps hundreds of thousands of records? The IDE keeps telling me that I am using a deprecated method of file I/O when I use FileOpen(), FileGet(),FilePut() and should be using MyFile.I am entirely comfortable with my time-tested method of data storage that ensures the security of disk storage while exposing only one record at a time to the PC's volatile RAM, thereby not allowing all my data exposed to possible memory corruption on a PC left on for hours, which would be the case if I loaded the whole file as a monster- sized string or stream. Also, these older file access methods allows my code to run on PC's with modest amounts of memory.
i am currently running a program that will allow me to save all data on the form to open and edit at will. It uses a structure of 8 arrays, each with 16 values to save the information.
When i try to save the text into the array, it tells me that its a bad record length and crashes.
Here is the

I have the following code... in an MDI application. [code] Various lines of code which put data into the Myinstance and then save the instance into the ArrayList.I have buttons which run procedures and functions in the formchild and also in the Class1. I need it so you can jump between formchild instances, and when you do so and click a button on that form, it will run the Class1 code but using the data in the arraylist and myinstance that was set previously by the selected formchild. Then if you switch to another child it uses data from this form. Can this be done by declaring the arraylist with more dimensions and then refer to the records with the index of the selected form instance, e.g.Selected Child is index(3)
View 1 RepliesI have created an MDIparent form and a MDIchild. There is a button on the parent which makes multiple 'clones' of the child form, each time its clicked.I also want (maybe with a module) a set of variables, and array of a structure but these are available to each copy of the child, but each copy's variables, arraylist etc contain its own data?Therefore if you select child1 the variables and array will have different data to child2, child3...etc...
View 3 RepliesI have written a ActiveX DLL in VB 6 which is like -
[Code]...
When I do this everything works fine and I am able to pass value to dll. I am passing two structures arrays and other single values like int and double etc. So far so good. But when I insert this code in another application (created in same vb.net 2005) where I actually intent it to use then i get the following error -
System.Runtime.InteropServices.SafeArrayTypeMismatchException
Specified array was not of the expected type.
I am puzzled as to why is this happening. I checked basic settings and they are same. In short the code works if i create a new project and go on but does not work and gives error if I insert in an existing application's code where i wanna use. To test I created a dll without passing structure arrays and then it worked in that application.

I'd like to give a homework assignment to a person learning VB.NET. I'd like it to use basic inheritance and a variety of data structures including queues, lists, arrays, or stacks in a windows forms application. I was thinking of a pizza-ordering application. This would allow them to utilize some basic inheritance and practice using .NET UI elements.

View 2 RepliesI am not a program designer by any means but I would really like to start getting a better grasp of how to do it and a better understanding of the .NET languages in general (VB, C#). I was reading a book by Wrox - Professional Visual Basic 2008. In it I believed it mentioned that Modules are slowly going out of existence. I can see why most coding would go into a class object but I would assume modules would always be necessary to at least keep the code clean.
Also, I have been searching for a good source on software design but I can't seem to find any recent books published. I might be searching in the wrong places but I would really like to get my hands on one.
I want to create program in vb2008 express with ms access database. Can somebody help me so i can learn how to program using classes hard coded. I have learned vb6 before but it has a big difference on vb2008.
I have a database named "DATABASE" in ms access 2003 and the details are: Table :
EMPLOYEE(EmpNo, EmpName), DEPARTMENT(DeptID, DeptName), CATEGORY(CategoryID, CategoryName), SUPPLIER(SupplierID, SupplierName), ITEM(ItemID, Itemname), ITEMLIST(ItemListID, ItemID, ItemDescription), INVENTORY

All the CAPITALIZED name are Table and all items inside the parenthesis are fieldnames. I don't know where to start on working on this RECORDS. I was able to understand visual basic 6 a bit, and i am trying to apply the coding to VB 2008 but all i get is errors. I am hopeless now and i need help to be able to start my programs. If someone can give me a sample code, i think i would be able to trace the line of code to be able to understand it. I am currently an inventory manager on the small company i was working with and i like to organize my record by using database.

I am new to using VB2010 (and coding in general). Also brand new to these forums . Okay so I am making a program that: allows the user enter the number of customers served for each of 12 months into an array. The application should calculate and display the following statistics: total number of customers for the year, the average monthly number of customers, and the months with the highest and lowest numbers of customers. Use inputBox to get user input. Do not accept non-numeric or negative numbers.
The problem that I am having is that I do not know how to display which was the best and worst month. I imagine I need something that targets the highest/lowest number and finds the text in the corresponding index but I'm not sure how to do this.

Now I see that VB tells me that label arrays are no longer supported But I also see that VB2010 is providing the relevant logic to update each of the label array fields I was until today using VB2008, because after running this application it crashes with a report of stack overflow, I assume it is related to the label arrays, but have no idea. So I have upgraded to VB2010.
In VB2010, I note that the immediate window is reporting A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll Now I have used label arrays for showing columns of like data, generated by a for loop. What should I be using it its place, maybe a grid..
I have to write a program using 2 parallel arrays representing grade point and grades. The grade points range from 0 to 500, however, we are only to use the minimum points per each letter grade in " points " array. This is shown in the code below. You then enter a number from 1 to 500, representing the grade points, and in turn it spits out your letter grade.My problem is this. When I enter a number, say 200, I get a letter " D " grade instead of an " F " grade. It appears that every number range I enter gives me one letter grade less than what it is supposed to be. Also, any number 450 to 500, representing an " A " grade does not even register in my Grades Label.

View 2 RepliesI'm attempting to create a list of structures that contains a list of structures. I can't seem to figure out how to properly allocate the object for the inner list of structures. I expect the outer list of structures to have a couple thousand entries and the inner list of structures to be fairly small at 2 to 10. Both lists will grow over time but the number of elements within the inner list will be constant for an instance of the outer list. Meaning, if an instance of the outer list has 2000 entries each of those will have the same number of elements on the inner list, say 4 entries.
Here is a simplified code fragment. This fragment makes no attempt to create the instance of the inner list "StructBlist" since I can't figure out where to put it. Tried "New List(Of StructB)" in the declaration as well as "Alist(0).StructBlist = New List(Of StructB)" but neither works.
