If I use code such as NewName = StrConv(OrigName, vbProperCase) to convert names to proper case, i.e. with initial capitals, I get unwanted results with Irish names like the following:
O'neill instead of O'Neill
O'grady instead of O'Grady

To convert a string to proper case what's .NET equivalent of Visual Basic strConv Function?

View 1 RepliesI just came across an interesting scenario. I have a class in C#:
[Code]...
As C# is case sensitive, this will treat the two variables A and a as distinct. I want to inherit the above class in my VB code, which is not case sensitive. How will the VB code access the two distinct variables A and a?
Is there a way to enforce case sensitivity in VB.Net file-names?
The primary issue that I am trying to solve is the difference in how Windows doesn't care about the case of a file-name, but other tools, like Subversion, do care about the case of a file-name

View 2 RepliesWe are running .NET 2.0 ASMX web services on Windows 2003 server on IIS 6.0. We have migrated a legacy VB 6.0 application to .NET 2.0 application using VB.NET. CDATE function is used at many places and we did not replace that with .NET equivalent date functions. After migration, code was working fine for many years.Recently, we have started encountering issues on our production servers where the below code fails:
CDATE("11 Jul 2011 21:10:27")
Error: Conversion from string "11 Jul 2011 21:10:27" to type 'Date' is not valid."If we perform an iisreset, the same code starts working fine. Could this be due to some recent patch for Windows server/ .NET patch?
I have a datareader reading Date feild from the CSV file as string. it retreives the first record as "03/06/2009" successfully. My system datetime format is dd/MM/yyyy when I insert these values to an access table it put 06/03/2009 i.e makes it 6th March 2009 instead of 3rd June 2009 and so on for the values upto 12th June....after that it starts treating the date monthly correctly..

Using the IDataReader's GetSchemaTable method I gather the CLR type of the column, such as "System.Int32", and whether it IsNullable. However, I'd like to keep the code simple, and instead of having a property that looks like:

I wrote my own database handling code (actually, I write T4 text templating files that generate my database code for me) and part of it takes care of converting values from a database (as Objects) to the desired types.
I have been using this generic function successfully:
vb.net
Public Overridable Function ConvertType(Of T)(value As Object) As T
Try
Return If(value IsNot Nothing AndAlso value <> DBNull.Value, DirectCast(value, T), Nothing)
[Code]....
Simple enough, but it doesn't work... The return type of the function is (and must be) T, so I cannot return a Boolean because a Boolean cannot be converted to T!
Well... It can in this case, because I specifically check that T is Boolean, but the compiler doesn't know this so it doesn't allow me to return a Boolean. I cannot cast the boolean to T either.
