Storing Data In Classes?
Apr 25, 2012
I have propetie get set classes, and a constructor to quickly set them all.The only concern I have is that the byval in the constructor class and the byval in the set() properties, might be inefficient because the parameter is copied twice? Should I use ByRef? Or is that too dangerous?

I am wondering the best way to store an object in memory that is used in a lot of classes throughout an application. We have multiple databases, 1 per customer. We also have a master table and each row is detailed information about the databases such as database name, server IP it's located and a few config settings.
I have an application that loops through those multiple databases and runs some updates on them. The settings I mentioned above are updated each loop iteration into memory. The application then runs through series of processes that include multiple classes using this data. The data never changes during the processes, only during the loop iteration.
The variables are related to a customer, so I have them stored in a customer class. I suppose I could make all of the members shared or should I use a singleton for the customer class? I've never actually used a singleton, only read they are good in this type of situation. Are there better solutions to this type of scenario? Also, I could have plans for this application to be multithreaded later.

In Java you can store a class in a separate file and instantiate it from a method in another file as long as the class file is in the same directory but this doesn't seem to work in Visual Basic.

I am reading data from a socket (as bytes) and storing this data in a string. Then later i need to access specific bytes within the string and do some math with them. However the bytes that I read back from the string are not what I am expecting.

I need to store data in a grid like this:
{0,1,2,3}
{4,5,6,7}
{8,9,10,11}
{12,13,14,15}
I know I can use multi dimensional arrays, but Is there any easier way to do it? Also I need to get values from it like myData.Item(0,1) would return 1.

I've linked the two using the standard data sourcing method and I now need to use the data that is read in to it on another form. The idea of this is that I'm creating a wage calculator and the employees are stored in a database and can be viewed on a vb form, however, I now need to use the data of their pay/hr to be used on another form to calculate the wage.I have tried to declare a public variable across the two separate forms, and on the button that takes you to the other to set this variable as the contents of the text box which is displaying the pay/hr using the following
Public Class ManageUsers
Public HrlyRate As Decimal 'Declaring global variable to use between forms
'Some other code in between relating to rest of the stuff on the form
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
RatePerHourTextBox.Text = HrlyRate 'Saving private variable to global variable
Calculation.Show()
End Sub
End Class
Then on the other form I have used this code to do the calculation:
Public Class Calculation
Private Sub calculation_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
End Sub

I'm having trouble trying to put together some code for an array. What I'm trying to do is get data entered from a text box and store it in an array.What I then need to do is take the entered data and make it appear in reverse order to what it's been entered and show this.

I'm trying to learn visual basic and i've made my application all work and now I just need to make the listview save data.As far as I know, I can create a database with all the relavent tables in it for each column in the listview. For example in a database, I will have a table that will have four columns because I have a four column listview. Each row must be tied together though.
The other option is to create a text file and use some xml or seperate them with commas. which one should I go with? I'd rather do the database one, but I really have no idea how to go about it.

I have a question. I have a asp site that keeps track of inventory. I currently have it as to where any updates to the inventory, an email is sent with the new changes. How can I get it to send the old changes and the new changes. I know I will need to somehow temp store the old values to use them in the email, but I can't figure out how to do it. I don't want to store them in an actual database table.

is there any way to keep data stored in an application retrieved from web references like we get data [items] invoked in a listbox from web references and then after publishing it when once exe. is run the data is invoked or retrieved from web references. so that when next time once again exe. is run the retrieved data will be there instead of waiting services to get data.

I am making a small tool that require some calculation. I am using hashtable to store values that I need to calculate. This tool continuously extract data on specific time interval(30 seconds) from webpage and add those data into the hashtable. Now the problem is I need to store the previous extraction data and when new extraction occurs, I need to deduct the previous data from new data.

On first run it shows the result of Data3 = 100 which is currect. But on second run I need to redefine the value of Data2 = Data1 . So I need a result of Data3 = 0 on second run. This may not be the proper way to do this sort of operation. I have also tried using listbox, listview and even textfile to store the Data2 and recall that on second run. But could not make it possible.
This is the last phase of my tool and I am stuck with it.

What SQL Server data type should be used to store RichTextBox text? The reason I ask is because the BOL indicates not to use text or ntext anymore because these data types will be excluded from future versions of SQL Server.

I basically need to hold a lot of data - the structure is that of a five dimensional array holding integers.What would be the most efficient way of storing this in a file (I was thinking of XML - your opinion?) that would also be quick to extract.

I have a whole bunch of information that has been parsed from a web page and i want to insert the data into a multi-demensional array and the compare the data of a certain array element to another array in the same format to determine which is missing/added.So if i have this:
Type of animal | Color | Age
Cat, Brown, 15
Dog, Pink, 6
Fish, Orange, 4
[code].....
I only want to compare the type of the animal and the color and age is irrelevant.I want it to let me know whats missing and what's been added.Sounds bizarre but yeah. It doesn't need to be arrays, it's the only thing i know of though.

I have the book "Visual Basic 2008 Step by Step", I am in the final chapters and have completed all of the walk through and demo programs thus far. I am a beginner but I also have a basic understanding of quite a few program statements and objects. My Goal: For the sake of simplicity I will use an example. I have a Tetris game, the player loses in the first level earns 25 points they click the save score button. , they play again tomorrow and do 1,000 levels and earn 25,000, now their score is 25,025.
Then they play my blackjack game, they gain 25,025 points when they start automatically from their Tetris game, they earn 25 points in blackjack click a save score button, now they have 25,050. [Thus far I have 2 games, and they both share a score that will need to be added to in the future]

There are "text" files, there are databases, I used to use a record (now called a structure) in a ".dat" file, but I'm having trouble finding documentation support in vs2010. So I'm thinking maybe it's time to move up to ... ? databases? ".txt"s? The current app I'm trying to write will only have a couple of hundred "records" at the very most; Old vb6 command like LenB which would return the size of a file in bytes is no longer, and I can't find how len( .."as byte" of file) would actually be implemented. len( <filename>, as byte) isn't the correct syntax - what is?
Is there some thing less dramatic than a full blown database? Or getting used to how a database uses SQL and all that goes along with that shoud be something to get handy with?

I am trying to store 8 separate pieces of information in a text file (like a database) [but not a SQL database], consisting of integers and strings. How would I use an array to do this? Will an array collect data from text boxes (I also want to display the 8 pieces of information in separate boxes). also how would I save the text file so I can open it again or open a different text file (database?), from within the program?
EDIT: I see I need to use readline and writeline to read/write from a text file but how would I find specific data to show in my boxes?

I will need to store 3 tables of data. Instead of implementing an entire database backend, I just want to store the record for these tables in application.settings.I don't care about security. Is it advisable to do it with application settings? how else would you do it? Perhaps storing a matrix in application.settings would be OK?

I have a piece of code written in Visual Basic:
Dim n As Double, i As Integer
n = 4
Dim Ramp_length(1 To 4) As Double
For i = 1 To n
Ramp_length(i) = Cells(13 + i, 5)
'Cells(65 + i, 7) = Ramp_length(i)'
Next i
Is there a way I can reproduce the result without declaring the array with a "fixed" length? I eventually want the code to read off a column of data with unknown length and store it in an array of equal or smaller length so it can be altered.
