i use csv file to populate my dgv. now i wanna eliminate duplicates from my dgv. i knew it could be done using unique datatable. but i wanna eliminate it from dgv not from the dataset or datatable.to understand it in better way- i wanna check column1 if the vales in column 1 are repeated then the entire row must be deleted i.e the duplicate row must be deleted( if column 1 has 2 duplicate values then 1 row must be deleted)

Depending on the data being used, I can have up 10,000 items in each of the 2 ListBoxs. I need to find and remove any Duplicates between the 2.I am currently using the method of select and Item from Listbox1 and search in Listbox2. If I find a match, then remove both items. This goes back and forth until all the duplicates have been removed. This take some time.Currently have the code in Old VB6 and VB2008 Express.
View 5 RepliesI have my code it is able to read a text file and do checks each line if there are 7W and 5L in that particular line, if no matches it will remove that line... 1 problem i face now is that, there are duplicates in my textfile..Im not sure how am i going to remove the duplicate in the text file. I want to know if there is a way to integrate an additional function inside my code to check if that particular line is a duplicate so i can accomplish 2 tasks at 1 time... Since there are about close to 1million records in my text file.

This seems like a simple question, How do i remove duplicates from a string collection?

View 1 RepliesI know how to remove duplicates in an array (have a simple function for that) but now I was trying to do the same in a matches collection and I can't get anything to work somehow.
In this case the matches collection has a few duplicates that I want to remove.

I have a semicolon delimited string (e.g. an EMail Address List returned from a database or a textbox). How do I separate the string into an array, sort, and remove duplicates? The code below works to separate the string and sort the results, but doesn't remove the duplicates. I could probably then loop through the array and copy to a new array to eliminate the duplicates, but there must be a better way to do this using the VB.Net Array, String, and Collections handling classes.
Dim s As
String =
"Test; Test8;Test1;Test2;Test3; Test8;Test4;Test5; Test6"

Ok, I found some code online on how to do this, but they only compare the Listview.item.text, and they don't care what is in the entire ListViewItem. Is there any code to remove duplicates in a ListView that checks to see if all the subitems are the same as well and THEN removes the entry? [Code]
View 7 RepliesI started programming Visual Basic .NET a few weeks ago. I wanted to make a tool to remove duplicate lines from a listbox. I have the following

For i As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1

I have this code to return a list of fund sources for our organization.
Dim FundSourceList As New List(Of FundSource)
Dim fs As New FundSource
If results.Count > 0 Then[code].....
The problem is that when I loop through the resulting FundSourceList all it shows is the last value. For example, if I have three fund sources (state, federal, athletic), then when I use this code to loop through all I get listed is athletic, athletic, athletic.
For Each FundSource In FundSources
Debug.Print(FundSource.FundDescription)
Next
So I change the code to this. I moved the creation of the fs variable inside the loop.
Dim results = From result In dsResult.Tables(0) Select result
Dim FundSourceList As New List(Of FundSource)
If results.Count > 0 Then[code]....
This works fine but now I'm creating a new class over and over again. It seems a little inefficient to me. Can I not create the class outside the loop and use it over and over again?

View 2 RepliesI have a list of objects, each with 2 relevant properties: "ID" and "Name". Lets call the list "lstOutcomes".I need to check the list for duplicates (meaning object1.ID = object2.ID, etc.) and set a flag (valid = false, or something) if there is at least one duplicate. Also, it would be nice to send a message to the user mentioning the "Name" of the object, when it fails.I am sure I will need to use the Group By operator to do this, but I am not used to doing that in LINQ, and the examples out there are just not helping me. This article seems to be close to what i need, but not quite and it's in C#.
Here is a starting stab at it...
Dim duplist = _

Okay so i have a very large list of string (500 000 strings) i want to check the number of duplicate strings and maybe even isolate the duplicate strings if i can.
i cant find a fast method to do so :S
i tried using a string array (slower than list) takes ~15mins
i tried using list with the code below takes ~10 mins
that wont cut it :S i need something faster.

All the items ordered this week are in ItemsOrdered and all the items not in the items in the database are in the ExistsingItems list. using these two lists how can i find items that are in ItemsOrdered but not in ExistsingItems.
