I'm building a new web app that has a requirement to generate an internal short URL to be used in the future for users to easily get back to a specific page which has a very long URL. My initial thoughts are to store a number in a database and output it in a HEXADECIMAL value to keep it shorter than an integer. TinyURL.com seems to use something other than HEXADECIMAL (multiple case letters mixed with numbers)

I'm a huge music person (got my own lil record thing going) but I'm wanting to design a program that would make music in my way. I have a decent amount of background knowlege of Visual Basic and Java I'm just wondering how could I execute this whole project. The Project is making a MPC Sampler. MPC is a drum machine; a machine with buttons that once you press it that it will play a sound from a drum (ex: snare, kick, tom, ect.) . So I would want to make some pads on my program that each have their own sound. Total of 16 pads. Which the design wouldn't be hard to make nor would the functionality of it having the play back sound (in my opinoin it wouldn't be hard atleast). But the thing is I wanna map out these pads to number keys on the number pad or keyboard. I'm not so sure how to do that. But that's all the easy stuff...
Also finding information is making a sound directory. What I mean by this is that I want to make a User Interface that will open up a file directory of sounds and the user can select what "kick" or "snare" sound he may want for the kick or snare pad. I don't know how to do that or even know what to search; neverless I don't know if this whole project idea is a good idea for Visual Basic or another programing language.
Also LATER ON I am wanting to add a record and export function that alows users to..well...record and export their beat or instrumental ha. That doesn't seem too too complex (mainly due to the fact that all it needs to do is record the users key strokes and then show them and play the sounds, but obviously it would get more complex than that.)
Here is an image of one of many MPCs but one with a directory - [URL]

I want to bitwise turn off the left most bit of a Short value (&H8000) and leave the other bits as they are.

Isn't there any shorter way with bitwise operators?

View 1 RepliesI have a date field in my Access database that I want to display in a textbox with a colored back color. This is VB.NET 2008. A datetimepicker has a format property (short) but the datetimepicker does not allow the color I want. No problem, it's just for display so I'll use a textbox. But the textbox shows the date and time. How can I get rid of the time in the textbox and just have the date? The field in the Access table is Date/Time with a format of Short. I think Access always stores the time.

We had a Nullable object must have a value error today on this line of code:list = From x In Me Where x.FooDate.HasValue AndAlso x.FooDate.Value.Date >= barDate
Funny thing is that I feel sure this used to work fine (and there has always been a sprinkling of null values in the underlying data). And logically it looks fine to me. The check for HasValue and the AndAlso look as if they're going to shield us from any Null danger.But it seems suddenly they're not. Am I missing something?OK, we can correct it to this, which eliminates the error:
list = From x In Me Where If(x.FooDate.HasValue, x.FooDate.Value.Date >= barDate,False)
But this looks to me less readable. In simplifying the above code to shorten the line I left out a crucial chunk of the code. The original problem should have read something like:
list = From x In Me Where x.FooDate.HasValue AndAlso x.FooDate.Value.Date >= fromDate And x.FooDate.Value.Date <= toDate
Because of the rules of shortcircuiting and operator precedence (as outlined in an answer to a long ago question of my own) I needed to add brackets round the second part of the instruction in order to stop LINQ evaluating the second x.FooDate.Value.Date:
list = From x In Me Where x.FooDate.HasValue AndAlso (x.FooDate.Value.Date >= fromDate and x.FooDate.Value.Date <= toDate) LINQ really does obey AndAlso and force me to look more closely at the original problem.
