I am creating a VB.Net program to deal out five random playing cards.For that purpose i checked the following tutorial - [URL]..It works great. But It has too much functionality I just want to get rid of the unwanted code to just dealing out 5 random cards. functions and classes from thius program that I should use.
View 2 RepliesI have code to deal cards and compile a string list for player and dealer. I want to rank the cards for both player and dealer. I dont know how to compare characters in a string or text (which would give me a starting point).
My Code:
Ive got 16 cards to make 8 pairs (simple) ive got it to detect a pair by piccard1.image.TAG what i need to do is though, make the 'tag' part random, 0-15 so i can give each card a tag, but it has to be unique and i cant make it give 16 different number.
View 2 RepliesI need to make a matching card game in VB 2010. i have generated my cards but now need to show the cards for 10 secs then change the cards to (AppPath & "Cards ed.png"). then when a user clicks on the card the card will flip over.*How would i set a timer to turn all my cards into*(AppPath & "Cards ed.png") after 10 secsbut still have the values from the array and when i click the cards they flip over (from red card to numbered card)
Code:
Private Sub Place()
Dim Counter As Integer = 1
For Row As Integer = 1 To Int_Grid_Size

I'm trying to make a program that'll play the card game "War". I've started to code the dealing process, but it doesn't seem to be working. I currently have 3 comboboxes on the form each with numbers representing different cards, 1 that contains all the cards to be dealt, 1 that contains the user's cards, and 1 that contains the computer's cards. I plan to just draw random numbers from these comboboxes for the dealing. However, nothing happens when I click the tool-strip button that's supposed to deal the cards. [Code]
View 5 RepliesBelow is the code that we have been working on. We have bolded the parts which we are unsure about - they are producing errors. (its near the bottom)The program is designed to generate a random hand of cards out of our list of them. This program is a smaller version of what we hope to have in the full one - ie. It tries to get a random hand of 3 cards out of a possible 5.
The part we are having errors with is getting the images to display on each of the 3 'picturebox' objects using a loop (so we don't have to type each picturebox individually).

I'm trying to make a "guess the musical interval" game, which will play two separate random audio files in succession.So far, I've got it doing that quite well. Here's my issue:I have a list of check-boxes listing off the different intervals that I want potentially hear when I click btnPlay. i.e., if every musical interval's checkbox is checked, I want it to potentially play any interval (unison - octave). Easy.However, if I uncheck "unison" I want my random number x to be not equal to my random number y (x <> y)If I uncheck minor 2nd, I want random number x and random number y to never be 1 number apart (x - y <> 1)?
Here's my code, I'm sort of getting lost here. I can't get inequalities to work, it says "expression is not a method."
Public Class Form1
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

View 1 RepliesI am using VB 2005 and MS Access 2007.Some of business name has apostrophe(') and I need to know how SQL deal with this name.For example
sqlStr = "SELECT * FROM AddressTable WHERE BusinessName=" & "'" & updateBName & "'"
in this case, if updateBName is "Den's Nail", the real SQL is
"SELECT * FROM AddressChangeTable WHERE BusinessName='Den's Nail'"
and this code generates Error Message.Is there any way to prevent error ?Or do I have to remove all apostrophe(') in Business Name?

View 1 Repliesbasically i've gotten myself into a mess with some last minute project work. shame on me and all that but thats college students for ya. basically i seem to be having problems assiging a simple integer to some pictures in an array. now. basically its a card deck. i've looked this up so many times yet nothing comes to me that fits my code or the way i've been taught. in any case i've got an imagelist and put it into an array to symbolize a deck. now. as i'm doing blackjack i need each card to have its own value. so obviously 2 of hearts value = 2, king = 10 etc.so what i've done is created a function that calls on a string. and used a select case to give a value based on the filepath of the image. however it failed hoplessly. heres a piece of the code:
Sub getcardvalues(ByVal card As String)
Select Case card
Case "decklist.images.item(2club.png)"
value = 2
[code]....
despite this seemingly simple solution i can't seem to pull out the path of these cards as a string. the array simply gives me a number and the actual picture dosnt want to be a string. so my question is this. how can i pull the image path out of the array (eg: deck(1) = decklist.images.item(3club.png)) and turn that into a useable string?

View 4 RepliesI have a program that I have been building for quite some time, which is sort of a media center type of program. One of the features it includes is a CallerID and call management system that I have integrated into it.I am actually turning the ringers off on my phones, and the program will have it's own ringer instead. One reason i'm doing that is, it is programmed only to ring if I actually have the number already in my phonebook (i.e. no more telemarketers), and other features like quiet time (after a preset time, let's say 11:00 the phone won't ring).So anyhow I have 2 sound cards in my system. One sound card is connected to my living room home theater, which would be for watching tv, movies, etc.The other sound card is going to a separate amplifier that will power speakers that are throughout the house. I want to be able to programatically tell my program to output sound on the secondary sound card.It will be just a simple wav file, and hopefully speech as well (using the system. speech.speech synthesizer).So no matter if your watching a movie, or playing xbox (meaning the stereo will no longer be playing audio from the computer),when the phone rings you will hear the ringer over the speakers, along with a voice saying "Joe Schmoe is calling".I don't know if I can specifically have it play certain sounds over one card, or if it is a per application setting.For instance, if you are watching a movie (meaning the movie is playing through the windows media player control, inside of my program), and the phone rings, I want the phone to ring on the other card without changing the audio from the movie. If i'm not able to do it that way, and if the program itself is only able to play through one card at a time, I will simply make the caller id portion it's own separate application, that way I could make it happen.

My app is basically talking to a device via RS232. I need to 'listen' to the data received and do certain things based on it, update labels, etc. When I started, I only had a couple cross-thread calls and I used JMC's example to get by that. Now my app is bigger and I am calling the ThreadProcSafe all the time. I am hoping there is an easier way so I don't have to create sub routines for every control. Here's the relevant parts of my code.

I was trying to add two quantities at different rows of same description i.e same product_name and same item_pack.1st I want to check the table if it contains the same description or not by comparing with the first record and so on. When found, I'll add up the quantities and then to delete that particular row (to avoid duplicate search). But when I delete the row the particular row, next time it throws an out of index exception
View 2 RepliesI've received a text file in which the text is like this, ãYAHOO.COM. When I'm debugging in Visual Studio, the value I see for the character is "�"c. Firstly can anyone tell what is the character before yahoo. Is it a special character or some html character, and what is the character that I'm seeing in VS while debugging.So it goes like this, the ascii value of the character turns out to be 63.But when I write the value to a file it generates 3 characters whose ascii values are above 127.
