Filter DirectoryInfo Files By Date In Asp.net?
Oct 9, 2011I am populating a datagrid control using files in a specified path (DirectoryInfo).I would like to filter the files based on a user specified date range (start date & end date). While search S/O, I found this post, but I am getting an error on DateComparer ("'DateComparer' is a type and cannot be used as an expression.")
Here is my code:
Dim dirInfo As New DirectoryInfo(strDirectoryPath)
Dim dStartDate As DateTime = "03/01/2011"
Dim dEndDate As DateTime = "6/30/2011"

May 31, 2012I'm trying to pull a table from an SQL database and sort it on the "Date From" (DtFr) column, which represents the start of a lease. I thought it would be as easy as this:[code]......You were right about the string value. I added a data column called sortDtFr to the datatable and gave it System.DateTime as a datatype and iterated through the rows setting the new column's value equal to the old one casted as a Date.

View 1 RepliesChart: Sorting Axis By Date?
Jun 8, 2011Using the System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting objects/namespace, am having problems getting by chart to sort axis of dates properly.My data looks like this (dates in US format):
Product Quantity SaleDate
A -- 2 -- 5/1/2011
B -- 1 -- 5/1/2011
C -- 1 -- 1/1/2011
B -- 2 -- 2/1/2011
I'm creating a stacked column graph like this, where dv is a dataview of the datatable:
vb.net
chSales.DataBindCrossTable(dv, "Product", "SaleDate", "Quantity", "") chSales.AlignDataPointsByAxisLabel() For Each cs As Series In chSales.Series cs.ChartType = SeriesChartType.StackedColumn cs.YValueType = ChartValueType.Int32 cs.XValueType = ChartValueType.DateNext
So this produces a stacked column graph with 2 A's, 1 B in May 11, etc But the date order is Feb, Jan, May, regardless of how I sort the datatable provided to the chart.
.net - Databound DataGridView Not Sorting Date Correctly?
Nov 19, 2010My DataGridView is not sorting my date column correclty and it doesn't seem to be sorting it by String either. The column is bound to a date property, all is done using the designer.The set which I'm viewing it on is 424 entries long, there should be two entries for each date and they should be next to each other (regardless if sorting by date or string)The last few dozen entries are sorted correctly but the initial entries are not.Initially every second entry at the start is correct. Here is an extract if some of the sorting it does.(The beginning of the sorted grid is on the left, and the end of grid is on the right)

Sorting Needed After Reading Values From Several Files
Apr 28, 2009I am still trying to accomplish a tiny flatfile based database. So far everything works fine except for the fact that 'data records' are not sorted alphabetically. My 'data records' are saved in files and their filenames are used as ID. Now all the data are stored iin the files, so, my application reads out the values and adds them to the 'database'. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any way to sort this added data alphabetically by name - everything else works perfectly and I am almost finished, except for the sorting.

Sorting Group Of Files Using HashTable - Visual Basic

i'll have more than 500 no of files in the below format:

High-Score Table : Sorting Values From 2 External Text Files?
Mar 7, 2011Program : my game is a frogger port, you make the frog cross the road until you run out of lives. When you die, you are asked to enter your name and the name is appended to the end of file called names.txt, the final score is appended to the end of a file called scores.txt.Using the System.IO functions, i read the contents of each text file, and load the contents into two separate strings (one for names, one for scores. These two long strings are then broken down using Split() command, transferring the pieces into an array. (again 2 arrays - one for names, one for scores). The contents of both arrays are then loaded into 2 listboxes, 1 for scores, 1 for names.
Problem: i can sucessfully load the contents of both files, and display them side by side - but i want to re-arrange the scores so that they are in descending order. While doing this, i need to make sure that the player name matches up with the score - so the order of the names being displayed would have to be changed aswell. After spending many, many hours trying to do it myself i have had to give up - i'm clueless. My first issue is converting the score array into integers so that the array could be sorted, the second problem is then sorting the names so that the scores and names match up.

1. Search the directory for .xml files
2. Find any .xml files and convert names to strings
3. Store the strings in a dropdown menu, so that when one is chosen, it loads that profile.

DirectoryInfo.GetFiles, Sort And Queue?
Jun 24, 2010How do I (i) sort the array of type FileInfo returned by the DirectoryInfo.GetFiles method by (file) CreationTime in descending order and (ii) once the array is sorted efficiently load it or convert into a Queue object (of type FileInfo) for subsequent processing. I thought of using the queue object as it handles things on a FIFO out basis and I'll be adding to the queue as new files arrive.

The data is sorted, even when new items are added to the ObservableCollection, however the date/time isn't being correctly sorted. The data is sorting based on the date however it is very much random when it comes to the time portion. The following is an example of the outcomes I am experiencing:

Is there anything that I am doing incorrectly in this method that would cause the time portion not be included in the sort? Is there a better way of doing a sort?
