I have a form with 2 radio buttons where the "checked" property is false, yet when the form loads the first radio button is selected. I tried .refresh and no positive results... Grrr! Also, the ampersand in the "text" property is not showing the underscore during runtime. This is with the entire project.
View 16 RepliesToday I installed VB 2008 express and having some older experience with VB at school I tried to translate some algorithm functions to VB. I came across these lines which are very simple.I had one textbox and wanted to show The result is x when i click the button. so, here is the part of the program.
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer
Dim w As Integer
[code]....
Because I write on paper in pseudo, "The result is", x would be correct and would show The result is x but instead, VB finds error. Does , indicate space here or does it recognise it as something else?

View 3 RepliesIn my program I have a linklabel that is used for local directories and it gets the directory from an XML file, but whenever there is an ampersand in a directory name I get errors. I've tried adding "ToString", having two ampersands (&&), and puting quotes around the directory in the XML file, but it doesn't work. Is there any way for it to treat the ampersand as a regular character? Here's the code that pertains to the directory path
'this part loads the xml file and sets the inner text to the proper variable
'let's pretend the directory in the XML file is "C:\foo & bar\"

I've tried:
Const amper As String = "" & ""

'Save and close button text
Const amper As String = "" & ""
ToolStripButton1.Text = "Save " & amper & " Close"

Am I using both methods wrong?
I have a data table being returned that populates a repeater. One of the fields has the & character in the data and displays perfectly within the asp:literal on the screen. The source shows the & character un-encoded.My question is this: Does it NEED to be encoded? A co-worker is insisting that it must be encoded in order to be "HTML compliant". But it works perfectly for display purposes. Is this REALLY required for any type of compliance that I should even be worrying about?
View 1 RepliesWhat's the trailing ampersand on VB hexadecimal numbers for? I've read it forces conversion to an Int32 on the chance VB wants to try and store as an Int16. That makes sense to me. But the part I didn't get from the blurb was to always use the trailing ampersand for bitmasks, flags, enums, etc. Apparantly, it has something to do with overriding VB's fetish for using signed numbers for things internally, which can lead to weird results in comparisons.
So to get easy points, what are the rules for VB.Net hexadecimal numbers, with and without the trailing ampersand? Please include the specific usage in the case of bitmasks/flags and such, and how one would also use it to force signed vs. unsigned.
I have a cookie saved to the user as follows.[code]...
The SearchText stores a value they have input in a previous page. We have observed if there is an ampersand in the cookie (eg Tyne & Wear), then the cookie doesn't save subsequent values (SearchType).

Is there a problem with an ampersand in the name of an MSSQL table name.? I'm converting an Access db to MSSQL and a table like Ta&ble1 gets upsized to SQL Server no problem. Do you guys see this as a problem in subs that use a reader when used with a stored procedure that uses this table?

View 3 RepliesI dynamically create buttons on a form and use the button text as ids so that I can pass that to an SQL query to pull saved data about that button when necessary, but I also use an image over buttons that have information saved about them. What I need to know is how do I keep the text on the button from appearing when there is an image assigned to that button? By default vb.net shows both the text and the image and no TextImageRelation values allow for the image to take precedence. I tried changing the text color to transparent, but the outline of the text is still visible through the image. Is there anyway to keep the text value as it is but just show the image on the button?

Hence after a new staff created, user can click on new button at the bottom to show a new staff form and close the previous one (parent form).
I have the following code under new button click event but i found that the previous form (parent form) somehow is still held in the memory.
What is the correct way to implement this and make sure parent form is released from the memory every time i click on the new button?
