Ignore Dashes In Values When Importing XLS Into SQL
May 12, 2009I have an xls file that needs to be imported into SQL Server directly from .net. I figured out how to do this, but now my problem is the data. The following data is in the xls file: Name, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone. The phone number can come in in various values (with dashes and without). I have no way of controlling this data because it is an export out of some third party application. My problem is that the numbers with the dashes are being ignored by the Excel import. I am using the OPENROWSET to import.

Replace Dashes With A Solid Line?
Feb 23, 2012I am using word 2010 VBA to clean up a "dot matrix" looking report. One thing I want to do is replace a row of dashes with a solid line. I think the code would look something like this:
count strings = "-------------------"
for each strin (i)
select string
delecte selection
move up
insert solid line
next (i)
Or if it can be done as a find and replace all that would be even better, but I cannot find how to replace a row of dashes (text) with a line object.
Add Dashes Automatically While Typing A Phone Number
Mar 31, 2010I have searched on google and asked friends, but have not figured out a way to add dashes while a user is typing either a phone number or a social security number or something of the like. I am using Visual Studio 2008, VB Windows Form. This is not for homework but I enjoy adding things to certain projects and thought this would be neat to incorporate into one of mine. I am also curious about allowing the user to enter the first three numbers for their area code and then send the focus to the next text box so that the user can type the rest of their number. I was thinking I could do something with the text box text entered event procedure where I would send the focus after three characters entered. Not 100% on the entire idea or if there is an easier way.

View 7 RepliesGame Programming :: Display In A Label The Appropriate Number Of Dashes?
Oct 12, 2004I trying to display in a label the appropriate number of dashes based on the number of letters in a word that the first player entered.
Basically, when you click play, the first person enters a word, then the second player guesses what it is. That person has 2x #ofletters of incorrect tries. I just need to figure out how to get the dashes to display based on # of letters and not a preset one of 5 dashes. The original program accepts only 5-letter word so that line of code is Me.lblWord.Text = "-----". I have modified it so the user can enter any # of chars. I tried making the above line with a lot of dashes so it but the leftover dashes will stay there and the game won't end. Here is what i have right now for my play button:
Private Sub btnPlay_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPlay.Click

Extract String From String When Only Beginning Of String?
Aug 12, 2011Basically I have a webresponse stream:dim lol as string = readstream.tostring there is a lot of information within the string but only one link starting with http: located near the end of the string - however there is no constant character point where I can start... (i.e. 38)
I want to extract the link from the string i.e. dog cat plane car [URL]..that is approximately how it looks above - words and url substituted I want to just extract [URL]..I had an idea of parsing the string from http: to the end Then after that splitting the string up again to remove the }], however it does not return anything

Asp.net - Decimal.parse Fails For Currency String Created With String.Format?
Apr 5, 2011I have a field that I display via: String.Format({0:c},amount) This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception: amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency) I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?
