Is it possible to create a program to run a program in another time?I mean you can run a program and give it a different time, such as three hours against the program (only by that program) say that one hour is?
What is the syntax that should be used in order to check if 08-Jan-2010 is before or after today.
I mean:If 08-Jan-2011 < today's date Then msgbox("08-Jan-2010 is in the past") Elseif 08-Jan-2010 > today's date msgbox("08-jan-2010 is in the future") Else msgbox("08-jan-2010 is today's date")
I want to quickly limit the time that someone can use my program and do it without licensing software for now. Can I use an If'Then statement to check to see if today's date is later that a date that Ihard type similar to this conceptually. I am using VB2008.
If today's date > 1-1-10 then Messagebox.Show ("Your trial period has expired.") Else Form2.show()
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?
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
While trying to set date time using SetSystemTime by passing the Structure.Only the date of the system is changed.Time is also gets changed but incorect time is showing in the System Clock of the Taskbar.e.g When I pass the following Structure(timeStru) to the SetSystemTime [code]...
I made a little application that check the servers and if the servers go off for more than 5 mins then the program will sent me a mail.My problem is how do I compare the server date time witch display in a textbox to the real datetime which display in a label also how do I run the program constantly till the user decides to exit by clicking on a exit button.
I've got a VB.Net form application that dynamically loads user controls based on which navigation link the user clicks on. I'd like to make it easier to use at Design time by putting a link of some sort to open the User Control at design time. The link would go onto the form in the space where the User Control will be going. This just saves a little time from having to browse through the files to open the correct file.
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?
I am attempting to import data in a batch from an Excel Worksheet to a Sql Server database. Everything works except for the one date field in the spreadsheet. The date returned is off by four years from the value in the spreadsheet. Example: The Excel sheet has a date 10/24/2010 14:18, but when I look at the column in my query, the date is 10/23/2006 2:18. This pattern, 4 years and 1 day earlier, is repeated for every row in the worksheet.
The Excel column comes to me as a custom type, formatted m/d/yyyy h:mm. I receive this from an outside vendor and having them change the column is not going to be my simplest solution.
For what it's worth, the relevent part of the query is:
Would it be possible to search a table, confining to a specific date range based on a date-time column, and get a count of the 10 most used words in a particular var-char column excluding a list of words?All in SQL?Currently I am pulling out the records that match and sorting through the contents outside of SQL, I would think where I can do it directly on the server it would be more efficient.(SQL 2008)
i am using date time picker and i am selecting 1 date from calender.after selection of that date i want to refresh date time picker i.e. it should display todays date.
I have an Sql server 2005 table called Emploeefl with 2 fields, EmployeeCode and Date of Birth. The data type for the date of birth is Datetime. I have a Date time picker on a vb.net 2005 form called dtDateOfbirth. When I click on the save button I get the error message "Conversion from string 'yyyy/MM/dd' is not valid. Below is the code
Dim newQE_Date As Date newQE_Date = Format(Me.dtDateOfBirth.ToString, "yyyy/MM/dd") 'newQE_Date = String.Format("2008/09/10", "yyyy/MM/dd")
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 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 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 have a problem. I'm making a alarm clock and I need a way of converting a "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss" format into a date time format. This means I'll be able to compare the dates in a listbox using the for each function, to the current date and see whever it has passed and therfore the alarm should be deleted. It is currently in a string form so I can't use < and > to compare it to the current date as that is in a date form. I've tried using CDate but it doesn't work as it only will convert these formats:
I have a date entered in from at DateTimePicker (dtDate.Value) and am writing it to an access database. This insert code works without the date, but not with it.
cant seem to get this to work , I am tryin gto get the date from last week exactly 7 days ago i get an error when i try this "cannot convert to date "
