Currently I have been writing subroutines in a activex dll to carry out functions in my main program but I have hit a little snag when trying to return a function when an if statement is triggered. What I want to do is for the dll to check if a function in the my.settings of the main program is true/false and if it turns out that it is true/false in the settings it will trigger the if statement in the dll which will then send data back to the main program - seem simple? I am also wondering, can you transfur boolean settings for enabled textboxes through functions stated in the subroutine of the dll?

I am currently writing a scalar valued function and I'm having a few issue with the returned result. I have narrowed the problem down to a calculation that convert the difference between two dates as a percentage/decimal. No matter what I try the return value is always a whole number
set @earnedpremium = (@premium * @pretripearnings) + ((@premium - (@premium * @pretripearnings)) * cast((datediff(day, @outdate, @experiencedate) / datediff(day, @outdate, @returndate))as decimal(5,2)))
The cast section needs to return the percentage, I know the rest is working fine through some elimination and testing.
What is the cleanest, most readable way to String.Format a decimal with the following criteria
start with a sign symbol (+ or -)
a fixed number of fraction digits
no decimal separator
right aligned
pre-padded with "0"'s
From what I read it is a good convention to name a method that returns a boolean value with the prefix of "is" or "has". So in keeping with this convention I am trying to name a method in my program with this prefix but I am running Specifically I have a class called Day. It is a simple class with a few data members and one method that returns a boolean value of true or false. The name of the boolean variable is isSpecialDay. This class has a method called isSpecialDay which takes the date of the day, applies some criteria to the date and then sets the variable isSpecialDay to true or false. My problem is that the boolean variable is named isSpecialDay and so it the method. What should I do?
Public Class Day
Private TheDate as String
Private DayName as String

My user requests to change the . on the numpad to a when entering text in a multiline textbox.So I was thinking about the KeyDown event.To determine if the numpad . was pressed I can do something like this [code]But now how do I change the returned charachter as a , ? All e.Key... properties are ReadOnly. The KeyPress events let me change this by providing e.KeyChar, but in that event I can't check for the numpad .
View 2 RepliesHow would I go about rounding up decimal numbers to the nearest 2 decimal places? For example $7.0000032 would be $7.01 In theory, VB would make it $7.00 but if it is > $7.00, I want it to reflect that to the nearest penny... so $3.0000001 would be $3.01

Is it casting from a double to a decimal implicitly. How would I do this explicitly in vb.net?
1) One Decimal Varibale stores a decimal value
2) The value must be converted in string ( some time the comma is used as decimalplaceholder some time the dot)
3) the user modifies the value
4) i need to riconvert the string back in decimal
how can i do this
so:
Variable 123.34D ----> textBox 123,34 or 123.34 -----> variable 123.34D
Is there a way in VB .NET to have a decimal variable with 40 decimal places?
View 3 RepliesMaybe this is just a really basic question that everyone knows the answer to, and is why I couldn't find the answer. What I want to do is pretty simple. I want to declare a custom type that's just like a Single, except when you access the value, you get the value rounded to the second or third decimal place. Something like this:
Dim MyNumer as TwoDecimalNumber
MyNumer = 1.124
Msgbox(MyNumber) 'This would pop up a box showing "1.12"

Problem: Using the sub routing below, when adding a value to another value the results eventually change from 2-decimal places to multiple decimal places.Basically, the amount stored should always only be 2 decimal places, because the values passed in are always 2 decimal places. Output from calling the sub routine multiple times.
Running total = 329430.75
New Withheld Amount = 710.79
Running total = 330141.54

As a workaround, I have a new routine that uses a custom round function to properly store only 2 decimal places - as the VB round function does not perform the type of rounding desired.I understand that we are removing the value from the dictionary and adding it back..

I'm working up a system where I plan on using RealProxy objects to enable intercepting method calls against a set of objects, handling the call, and then returning appropriate results. This works just find for simple return types like strings or ints, but I can't seem to return objects from the RealProxy.Invoke method. Everything works. I get no errors, but the returned value is always NOTHING, instead of an object.
I've worked up the smallest sample code I could, and have included it below. Essentially, just call RPtest and single step through. The code creates a simple object, RPTestA, with a string field and an object valued field It then retrieves the string

View 1 RepliesI am working on a little Hardware interface project based on the Velleman k8055 board.The example code comes in VB.Net and I'm rewriting this into C#, mostly to have a chance to step through the code and make sense of it all.
One thing has me baffled though:At one stage they read all digital inputs and then set a checkbox based on the answer to the read digital inputs (which come back in an Integer) and then they AND this with a number:[code..]
I have not done Digital systems in a while and I understand what they are trying to do but what effect would it have to AND two numbers? Doesn't everything above 0 equate to true?How would you translate this to C#?
I am converting some C# code to VB, the following code is part of a function
if (bool.Parse(v["Parent"].ToString()))

The code throws an error "String was not recognized as a valid Boolean" But if I use this code
If CBool(v("Parent").ToString) = True Then
e.Row.CssClass = "Parent"
End If
It works fine, which is great
I am using a boolean embedded in a for next loop. I thought the value would ALWAYS default to false inside this loop, but it seems to hold the value of true inside the loop, even when moving to another value of i. What's up with this?

I'm taking a course in Visual Basic 2010 and I'm trying to get a grasp on this new term called a flag. I kind of understand that it has something to do with a boolean condition. I don't quite understand what a flag is. I see references to it using the term flag. I understand it has something to do when a boolean, a condition triggers a flag. But what is the flag.
