In what situtations is it best to use reference arguments to return values?
Sub Example(byref value as integer)
value = 3
End Sub
In what situations is it best to return the value (perhaps in a structure for more complex types)?
Function Example() as integer
return 3
End Function
Module Module1
Public Structure structure1
Public TRANS() As structure2
End Structure
Public Structure structure2
Public X() As Integer
End Structure
End Module

I want my function to return a value of a structure. The function is supposed to change the values and then return the answers in one structured value. Here is my code... as you can see it does not work... it needs a LOT of things. I placed question marks were i am really lost.

I am trying to do a simple program where I have a public structure and public function in a code file, the problem is I want to return two integers. Here is the code from my code file.

I have a windows app that references a web service I created. In the web service, I created a function that needed to return more than one value. Because of this, I created a public structure in the web service:
Public Structure MyRecordSet
Public lstOfDataInRecord As List(Of String)
Public iNumberOfRecords As Integer
End Structure
Here's the function - the return value is MyNewRecordSet:
Dim MyNewRecordSet As MyRecordSet <WebMethod()> _
Public Function GetDataReturnList(ByVal sql As String, ByVal sTableName As String) As MyRecordSet
MyNewRecordSet.lstOfDataInRecord = New List(Of String)
[Code] .....
Anyway, I see it's a conversion issue, but not sure how to resolve it. This is my first attempt to use a public structure in a web service and receive a return on it from my app.
I'm trying to return code like this (can be found here):
{"hotspots": [{
"id": "test_1",
"anchor": { "geolocation": { "lat": 52.3729, "lon": 4.93 } },

I have problems with array of structures.my structures are like this
structure order
xxxxxxxxxxx
yyyyyyyyyy
zzzzzzzzzzz
end structure
and then I created many array of structures, like this private arrayorder (100) as order
now i need to sort the entire xxxxxx member of the array of the structure with a function, but I dont want to use loops with arrays indexes to access the information. I want to know if there is another method to reference the array and the member of the structure to get the data.
Is it okay for a structure variable to hold a small number of reference types? I thinks it's fine because the pointers themselves are not that big, regardless of what they're pointing to. But I never did fully figure out the whole heap/stack thing, so I'd like to make sure.
View 6 Replies, I was wondering if it was possible to reference a member of a structure by using a string variable. Here's an example of what i'm talking about:

Now, I know that you would usually reference the value in any of the members by using the following (String1 in this case)

How would I define a LINQ Query to Sum all of the Product.Cost values in the List? In other words, what would be the LINQ Query in VB.NET to return the value 120.90, which reflects the sum of all three Product Cost values in a single LINQ Query?
I epochly failed creating an array structure. How would I build it like I tried to do with values for each data type.

I have a user defined structure in a list that I am trying to change the value for in an individual element within the list of structures. Accessing the element is not a problem. However, the compiler complains
"Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of the assignment"when I try to update the value.For example:

Dim first as String
Dim last as String
Dim age as Integer

I have created two structures, one named "Product" and the other named "Item". These structures are quite similar but are at the same time quite different from each other. The structure definitions are as follows. Ultimately, I declare arrays in my containing class which access these structures as a type. Their declaration: "Products() as Product" and "Items() as Item". All has been fine and dandy until one day, I go to change the items Enabled() values, and something happens. Not only does it change the Items(index).Enabled(index) value, it does it on the corresponding Products(index).Enabled(index) value, even though it was never specified to do so. Also, nowhere in my coding have i defined this sort of thing to occur. It is rediculous, because I watch it happen. I turn on the watch window, and debug one step at a time, and every time, I watch the Item line step, I look down at the arrays of products and items, and both values have changed. How do I get this to stop, and only change the Item.Enable value??

In a public module (codefile) I defined a data structure called db_connection,then declared a variable of that type like so: Public db_con as db_connection I pass db_con to a sub. I expected the db_con structure to be populated with values after the call to the sub. It does not.This is something I have done for years in vb6.What might have changed to prevent this from working?
View 2 RepliesI have a class (using a class rather than a structure only because I can set a default field value for the fields I declare in the class) and I'm using a web service that returns information (demographic information) in JSON. I am using LINQ to get the values of each "entry" from the returned list and in that, I have to parse through and pull out the actual data that I want.Here's how I have it doing right now (just a start, there are 44 of them total, thus my question which will follow the code):

I'm working with a class that inherits the XElement class.The new class is called MXElement.It adds some new functionality to it for navigating through the XML tree, as well as some more information regarding attributes, but that's not particularly important.My problem is that I have an XML Tree filled with XElement objects.However, when I create a new MXElement object from the XElement object before, it is just a copy of that object. This means that any changes that I make to this object will not effect the original tree.I suppose what I'm asking for is a way to build in the functionality for my MXElement class and keep references to the original XElement objects.If possible, I would really prefer to keep MXElement a child class instead of building a lot of extension methods for XElement.

View 2 RepliesIf a use the NPV() function in Excel (2010) with a discount rate of 5% and 10 cells that each contain 505,000 the resulting NPV function call "=NPV(5%,C2:C11)" returns the value of 3,899,496.
If I use the Financial.NPV() method in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace (in my C# application) and pass in a discount rate of 5% (as a double) and an array of 10 doubles with a value of 505,000 each, the VB function returns the much lower value of 100,999.99 (plus a few more decimals).
When I do a
Request.Querystring("key1")
Request.Querystring("key2")
The system doesn't seem to parse the second ?/value out but treats it as if key1 was all one string, e.g. [URL] ...as if it completely ignores or doesn't parse out the second (or other if more) key/value pairs.
Need to return the greater of 3 values. Each value is based on user input and system calculations. Requirement = the greater of (Req1, Req2, Req3) Have tried a number of "If" "Else" and Ifs within Ifs "<" and ">" combinations without consistant results. This may seem simple to some but I am relatively new to VB. My search on MSDN was not fruitful.

View 2 RepliesWhat I need to do is to have my program look at 2 different values then return a value.
Here's an example:
If my tube material = SA-214 and the tube gauge = 20 then my tube wall thickness = .032. The thing is I have 5 different types of tube material and 12 different tube gauges so based on which tube material is selected and which tube gauge is selected the tube wall thickness will vary. So if I select a TM of SA214 and a TG of 14 then my tube wall will be .076.
