Single Stored In A String?

Aug 9, 2011

I am struggling a bit with a string conversion. My platform is VB in Visual Studio 2010, windows form application. What I have is a Single float that occupies four characters of a string. Where Chr(0) is the LSB of the single and Chr(3) is the MSB of the single. This string is loaded by a built in function that communicates to an external microcontroller via tcp/ip that I do not wish to modify. I am having trouble figuring out a way to get these chars from a string to a single data type. I dont need to convert the data, just move it. But I keep getting type errors and not sure how to handle it in VB.

How To Call Stored Procedure And Retrieve Single Return Value

Jul 22, 2010

I'm new to LINQ and am having a problem getting proper results from a simple (working) stored procedure that takes no parameters and returns a single Integer. When calling this sproc with LINQ its returnvalue is always 0. When run using tableadapter or directly on the sql server it works, returning 6 digit values like 120123.

Here is my LINQ code:

Dim MeetingManager As New MeetingManagerDataContext
Dim MeetingID As Integer = MeetingManager.NewMeetingID().ReturnValue Here is the NewMeetingID procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[NewMeetingID]
AS

BEGIN

Making A Stored String Into A Web Address?

Dec 5, 2011

I'm attempting to use a product I've designed that stores 2 files on my web server space so I can access my stored data from anywhere. They are getting stored in the correct folder, but have several ___ (underscores) at the end of the file names.I'm sure it has to do with the way I bring back the stored string:My 2 variables are FILE1LOCATION (STRING) and FILE2LOCATION (STRING) They look just fine stored and recovered, but must not be.I recover them by the following code:

FileOpen(1, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData) & "myfoldermyprogmyinfo.dat", OpenMode.Binary)
FILE1LOCATION = " "
FileGet(1, FILELOCATION1_UPLOAD, 40)

How To Escape Single Quote In String.Format

Jun 24, 2010

While searching on how to escape a single quote in String.Format, I found the answer at SO: Escaping single quote in String.Format(). It seems to be different for VB though. I tested it, and indeed C# needs

string s = DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM d \'yy 'at' H:mmm");
while VB needs
Dim s As String = Now.ToString("MMM d 'yy 'at' H:mmm")

Why does C# need a double backslash, and VB a single backslash? This might be a bit of a silly question to C# users, but while I can read C#, I'm not used to writing it.

VS 2008 Calling A Stored Procedure In .NET For Connection String?

Oct 26, 2010

I have been creating some asp.net sites that connect to an AS400 for data and I use a SQLDataSource for this with the following connection string (changed for security reasons). Now I need to create a winform application in VB.NET and am wondering how I would do this? I have only used MSSQL in winforms and use the sqldatareader for Select statements and execute non-query for others. I need to call some stored procedures on the AS400 passing parameters. I was hoping to do this by code like I do with MSSQL rather than drop in controls to bind to.


Provider=IBMDASQL.DataSource.1;Data Source=192.168.100.2;Password=xxxxx;User ID=xxxxx;Initial Catalog=S12345;Default Collection=AABBCC

DB/Reporting :: Single Character With In A String Search In SQL Query?

Jan 14, 2011

I am trying to do a SQL query that checks for the presence or absence of a character's occurance in a field / column as a condition to retrieve the row. In this case I only need to test for existance of the specified character and in a similar query to test for the non existence. Not where it is or how many, just is it there or is it notI am using VB express.net 2008 and it uses, I think, MS SQL Server 2008.Using VB's instr() I can tell straight away if a string does or doesn't contain a character, but I would like to know this before I retrieve the row.

using the

WHERE .... and [mytable.myfield] LIKE 'Q'
or
WHERE .... and [mytable.myfield] NOT LIKE 'Q'

produces a result, but not a correct result. It does something but I can not say that it is working even part way.CHARINDEX gets an undefined function error MATCHES also gets an undefined function error?CONTAINS looks like it should work but I am still getting sytax errors with it, so I don't know how to use that predicate yet.
