I'm trying to set multiple variables using a textbox.The way I'm trying to do it is have each variable seperated by a space so like this:#If textbox1.text.contains("test") then set variables from textbox1.text for each " " in textbox1.text define new variable(value, string1, string2, int1, int2, int3, int4, int5)#End If I just don't know how I would code something that can set these variables from a single line of text in a textbox seperated by nothing other than just spaces.
I have 10 forms and say 5 text box's on each one so a total of 50 of these text box's. But the program is only using one of these forms only (user selects the 1 Form out of the 10) so I was wondering can these forms Share the input text box's? I am thinking NO, if so then the only thing I can do is just use 5 shared variables that all the forms can utilize.
I have code, shown below, that works all except for 1 thing: The variables being passed byRef get passed, but once modified in the else section of the "if me.invokerequired" code of RecordData, the variables are never updated in the calling function. To reiterate, the calling function does not receive the updated data that is in the variables custid and amt.When debugging, I see the data change in the else section of "if me.invokerequired", but once it returns from the callback the data is missing.[code]
Is there a way to give a value to multiple variables (integers in this case), instead of all at once?
For instance, I have Dim aceVal, twoVal, threeVal, fourVal, fiveVal, sixVal, sevenVal, eightVal, nineVal, tenVal As Integer and, pending listbox selection, I'd like to assign threeVal fourVal and sixVal all values of -1.
i would like to say i am a novice programmer, in year 12. I am designing a small game for my HSC and one of my forms is getting very cluttered with controls and code. To resolve this cluttering, i have had the idea to create new forms for some aspects of the game (such as different game modes and so on). However, in order for that to happen i have to drag some variables of the new form to the old form, (these variables would be just booleans or integers to say whether you lost a game or won a game or something that would carry on to the main form.)
I have a sub which requires multiple counter variables. Is there a more efficient way of doing this. My example is simple. Image if I had 20 separate counters I was trying to manage. I would have to create 20 separate variables and then increment each in the desired place in the code.
Dim Counter1 as Double Dim Counter2 as Double Dim Counter3 as Double
I am trying to have it so that when a user hits a button to enter a shop, it will open a popup window which will have the shop's goods. The only problem is I can't figure out how to keep the variables working between the two windows.
I need to get the variable 'gold' to transfer to and from form2(the shop window) and whatever is bought at the store to transfer back to the main window.
Right now, when I go to form2 all the values are 0, and all the variables I used on form1 are undeclared on form2.
How do I access variables from form1 to show up in form2? Is there an easier way to accomplish this than using a separate form?
What is the cleanest way to assign a value to multiple variables? For example, how can I assign FALSE to each of Label1.Visible, Label2.Visible, Label3.Visible, Label4.Visible, and Label5.Visible.Is there anything like
This is my first attempt at writing a program that accesses a database from scratch, rather than simply modifying my company's existing programs. It's also my first time using VB.Net 2010, as our other programs are written in VB6 and VB.NET 2003. We're using SQL Server 2000 but should be upgrading to 2008 soon, if that's relevant.I can successfully connect to the database and pull data via query and assign, for instance, the results to a combobox, such as here:
[Code]...
How do I execute a query so as to assign each field of the returned row to individual variables?
<pre-question blab>// skip if you want Might as well consider me new, as I haven't programmed in years, and that was only tinkering in Java. Trying to get back on track a bit, so starting with VB to get the feel going to continue learning. I don't mind putting in the effort to learn and look up, I just am not 100% sure what I should be looking into at the moment... Old programming I did was nothing advanced, only little things like calculators, notepad-esque writers, and that sort.</pre-question blab>
I'm BASICally wanting to know what I should look into for saving multiple variables of a custom class object to be loaded later. I've seen some things about text, and I can do that fine, but don't think it would be the proper/best way of handling things at all. I also saw some talk of XML, SQL tables, etc. I just need a point in the right direction.
For a bit more info on my actual project, I was tinkering with a 'simple' program to allow users to create rooms/objects/etc., which will then be converted into Inform 7 language (an interactive-fiction language).The variables needing stored are objects with a number of string variables and integer variables. I need to be able to save those, then load them out later into an array of said objects.
For anyone needing a more VISUAL image of what I mean, here are a few screenshots to show you what I mean. Also, if anyone has ever used Adrift, it is (at the moment) very similar to it, but for the Inform language.
I need to pass two variables/strings to a background worker at the same time. he background worker needs to return the first variable, and the time consuming boolean result of the second variable.From what I have read, I can only pass an object that contains multiple variables.This is where I get confused
I'm looking to be able to save and load the content from multiple structured arrays and variables into/from an encrypted file, is there any reliable source of information or tutorial that I'd be able to use for this? I've never written a program in visual basic that writes to/reads from a file.
I'm using a Listview in VirtualMode, so I can 'add' a lot of files almost instantly. A Listview in VirtualMode does not allow sorting, so I need to sort the data myself. The data is stored as a List of Structure (it's faster to load than a List of ListViewItem). The code below works fine, but I need to sort based on multiple variables in the Structure. Code:
Anyone know right off hand a cleaver way to chop up a Text value from a table... Scenerio is this I have one table with a name (Smith, Timmy Alan) in a table text(30) format. I can pull the value to a string in VB but I want to only take the last name for one string and the first for an other string.
I'm making a IM LAN Chat, and I don't want to limit it to a specific number of chats that can be open at any given time (By re-producing the forms and setting variables once a chat is open).
I have some code where I am trying to use variables in a tabpage. The first tabpage only has one text box for user entry (miles.text) and a button to do a calculation: traveltime = mileage/speed. The value from miles.text is stored into a variable called mileage while the speed used is stored in a variable called speed (me.speedtextbox.text).
Ordinarily, doing val(variable.text) works like a charm and it's not doing it in this case. When the user enters 100 for the mileage, it should be divided by 65 (the number in the database) and, therefore, the answer should be 1.53 hours. In my case, I'm getting "infinity" and whenever I do anything else with the variable, I get "when casting from a number, the value must be a number less than infinity." But it is! It's only 65 and I double-checked that the dataset said that too, which it does. Not sure why I am getting this error.
i'm having is I have a 4 comboboxes with values connected to the items. I have textboxes set up so the values of the items show up. The items are concatenated ("" & processor(0))The processor variable contains the number, so how would I add numerous variables together to display in another textbox.
I'm facing a problem with my current member card reader development.
I'm reading the card number (just a serial number of 4 digits) with a card reader. this seems to work fine (even converting the text string to integers).
This number is then put in a query to find the exact record that corresponds with this number
I recieved a gift recently visual studio 2010 ultimate a nice suprise I have been repairing and building PC's and networks for years working in local shops and buisnesses, but always wanted to learn programming so my GF purchased this for me nice suprise. So here is my beginner question. I am making a program that will take check info ( check number, amount, date and person or buisness wrote to). I have no plans on using it just trying to learn variable structures and arrays and thought this type of program was a good start. Now I would like to take the text of a text box in runtime and use that to input a new check number into the variable structure. Just so I am not confusing anyone I will write the basic code
[Code]....
So what I would like to do is use a textox labeled check number to add check numbers into the checkrecord structure instead of having to add them into the code manually is this possible?
I have a form with a few text boxes, one of which has it's contents stored to a integer variable.
The value stored will end up being one of a few numbers ranging from 12 to 98, and I need to the same number of new variables as the number in the textbox.
Can I automate the creation of new variables based on the value stored, or do I need to define the max number required and just ignore the rest when using less?
I made a simple textbox with a submit button and a label and when you type in something into the textbox and hit the submit button what ever you typed in the submit button is suppose to show up in the label box but i type in DaFallenAngel in it and it only shows D why is it only showing D and not the full name? [code]
I am writing a program where I would like the user to be able to save the contents from multiple textBox into a file and the retrieve the contents late.
In VB.NET I would like to create a complicated data structure with multiple types of data stored in an array like format (see below). I am trying to create a data structure that would look something like this: [Name; xLoc; yLoc; zLoc; [Jagged Array]] Note: Name needs to be dimensioned as a string, xLoc and so forth as integers. The Jagged Array would look like this:
Last year (2010) I came across a FANTASTIC command that allowed me to take a string of variables with a common delimiter and break it all back out into separate variables (possibly an array) with one statement.
[Code]...
As long as the delimiter was a unique specifiable character, this one-statement command could break it out into elements. my memory and point me in the right direction.
I define some global variables of a class as follows:
Private Class MyClass Private var1 as Decimal Private list1 as List(Of string)[code].....
But I found that after this form is closed, all above variables, var1, list1, list2 still exist in memory. I thought they should be collected by gc since the form is already disposed as I confirmed.
Add: I have monitored half an hour after the form is closed. But these variables are not collected by gc. I have an automatic update procedure on the form which uses above variables.Since the above variables still hold values, the automatic update procedure is always called which causes exception. (One quick fix is to check if form.isDisposed in update procedure. But I do not think this is elegeant. Besides, these variables occupy memory.)
