Text Fields Truncated To First Character Only?
Nov 20, 2010
I'm working on a project using SQL Server Express 2008 R2 and Visual Basic 2008.My table has 8 text fields, each using the data type VarChar(num) with the number(num) ranging from 5 to 50. There are also number fields and a boolean field in the table.When I try to insert or update the table in Visual Basic the program runs through to completion, but the VarChar fields only contain the first character. The other fields come out fine. If I create the record in SSMS the fields are not truncated.

I have an observation to share about the 1st character of a checkbox text being truncated when the FlatStyle property is set to system. Details follow: I am using Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008. Development Edition
A few details copied from the Help -> About -> Copy Info button
Version 9.0.21022.8 RTM
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 3.5
Installed Edition: Enterprise
Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 91904-270-3624373-60139
Here are the steps that I followed:
File -> New Project -> Windows Forms Application
Double clicked the CheckBox from the Toolbox and it started to show up on Form1.
In the CheckBox properties, I set the following:
Text: Windows
Font Name: Arial
The Font Size is left to the default which happens to be 8.25 in my case.
FlatStyle: System
Now note the 1st character of the CheckBox. I see the "W" truncated. I tried modifying the CheckAlign and TextAlign property values as per this page: [URL]. But could not find a reason. Changing the FlatStyle or the Font size seemed to work. But for this specific set of property values, the W isn't rendered correctly.

I'm reading in an excel file with the following code:
Function Read_Excel(ByVal sFile As String) As ADODB.Recordset
On Error GoTo fix_err
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
rs = New ADODB.Recordset
[code]....
Cells longer than 255 chars are getting truncated, and I'm not sure if there is a way to stop it easily?
Update: The truncation only seems to happen if I select Distinct. If I leave the Distinct off it shows the full cell.

experience on how to create an engine using C# (VB.NET is okay too) that is generic enough to handle most cases of MS Word text fields I need to fill with data I'm getting from a database? In short, I'm about to embark on this little Office automation excursion and I'm hoping a little bit of feedback here.

i have a strange problem. my programme writes to an Excel File, and enters data fround on a Word file and another Excel File.
the problem is sometimes we get an error message advising:
"The Picture is too Large and will be Truncated"
does anyone know what this means and how to avoid it?
it does not affect the programme from continuing after hitting OK, but i would like to know what can be done to correct it.

I am using the following code for a combobox to display a series of codes depending upon the value entered in combobox1. This works fine except the column being displayed contains a 6 character field (A99999) and I would like to display only the last 5 numeric characters rather than the whole column. otherwise I shall have to add an additional field into the table which contains just the numeric part of the code.
Dim LowestVal As String
LowestVal = ComboBox1.Text & "00000"
Dim HighestVal As String
[Code].....

I'm working on a feedback form for my project that has labels for questions, and text fields for answer input.For my feedback form, I need a code that "binds" or links all the label(s) text and textbox(s) text. Basically, almost like a survey. I need all this text to be able to be sent to an email address.

I tried searching for a solution, but couldn't find anything, so if I am re-asking a common question, don't beat me too badly. For a class, I have to create a form that allows someone to enter in the names of six students, as well as five test scores each. It also averages the scores, and displays them in a label.
What I am wondering is if there is a way to clear the text from all 36 text fields, as well as the 6 labels without having to do everything individually?
I could certainly go through, and write out txtField1.text = String.Empty 36 times, but it seems there would be a more elegant solution. Also, if there is a way to do so, would the same would apply for putting the data entered into an array, or saving it to a file?

I am writing a little program that does the following:Allows the user to enter a id number.Then when the find button is clicked, we connect to the database and run a select statement for the id.I am trying to figure out how to get the first name, last name and birthdate into textboxes on my form.
I would like to have a way to display a messagebox if the resultset = 0 so as to tell the user no records found.Then if the information is correct I am going to have a button to update the information which is going to call a stored procedure I have in place to update the record.how to make the connection which I think I have working and then loading the individual fields into the appropriate textboxes.

I have a series of text boxes in my form that can accept 6 digits. Upon entering the 6th digit I want the focus to move to the next text box. Is there a way to initiate a Tab command (just putting chr(9) didn't work...so that may be wrong) once the counter hits 6? I currently have the following code, using the .focus command but I am hoping to not have to create 25 subs to set focus to the next. My current
Private Sub txtEnter1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles txtEnter1.KeyDown
[Code]...
I can't just add txtEnter2.KeyDown (etc.) to the Handles of the sub declaration because then they would all set the focus to txtEnter2 instead of to the next text box. I'm sure it is something ridiculously easy but it is escaping my grasp.

This gets data from Excel and puts it into a table. The first 2 rows of data are placed into the table. All the fields columns are the same type and nothing is larger than it should be name is varchar(30) team is varchar(3) pos is varchar(2) rest are int or double. I place an i in front of integers s in front of string and so on. The 3rd row crashes with the following message at Command.ExecuteNonQuery() String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated.

I'm currently refactoring an old Visual Basic DLL (VB.Net), which stores all of its data in one module called Globaldefinitions as public fields. There are about 200 fields, referenced thousands of times all around the code:
Public Module Globaldefinitons
Public a As Short
...
Public zz10 As Double
[Code]...
I need to change the module into a class with non-shared fields. This means, each and every of these thousands of references needs to reference the instance of that class:
globalDefinitionsInstance.a = 5
How do I go about this efficiently?
Regular expressions operating on the source fall flat. Refactoring tools like Re-Sharper or CodeRush don't seem to offer this functionality. Visual Studio 2010 cannot do it automatically either.

I'm not getting this at all I suppose. I've tried so many variations to split the lines into individual fields and I still cannot get it to do what I want.
I have to get lines from a sequential file which read like:
CODE:
And load them to a listbox like this:
CODE:
With the ID # padleft(10, "0") and the commas eliminated, and only the Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial showing.
This is my mess of a code (it is just one of many variations)
CODE:
I've got the ID field right but the rest just shows up as it is in the file commas and all.

I need to build a rather simple form for collection some information from our membership. It has 4 Text boxes and one Submit button. The contents of the text boxes need to be emailed to a fixed Address and a fixed Subject. Before I got to fancy I tested the form to see if the email portion worked which I did get the email but not all the data. I am trying to stick with VB as I had experience with it years ago.
My problem seems to be in building the string for the body of the message. Trying to use StringBuilder but my syntax is messed up somewhere. The Fields that I have are: Name, Phone, Email Address: and Comments. They are named in the form as txtName, txtPhone, txtEmail and txtComments. [Code]

web page has a few fields to allow the user to enter payments. After the system processes the payments, the fields weren't cleared out.so my task is to simply clear them out.[code]The procedure is writing an HTML receipt into the strBody and displaying it to the user.They see the 'File download, do you want to open or save this file' and can open the receipt in ms-word. Without those three lines, the resetting works. So clearly they are messing up something, I just don't understand what.I've got a workaround, but I'd like to know what is going on.Even to the tune of is this a correct way of creating/downloading a document.This in an inherited system, the original designer is long gone.

I am using crystal reports with vs 2008 express and i am having trouble with one part. I have a parts filed in my database and I need to insert each part into a different unbound field. I have been trying to use the split function but I can't get it to work. The parts list can unlimited so there is no way i will know how long to loop for. This is how the string appears in the database.
Airfliter - 1 - 12 + Oil - 1 - 12 + FuelFilter-2-3
Each is separated by a + and PartName-QTY-Cost is the break down of each part its self .

I have a series of text fields on a simple form (inside a group box) I would like to enforce all the text be upper case upon submission to the database. I know I can use the Ucase command. The question is implementation. How can I very efficiently force all the field values to upper case vs. say doing Ucase(TextBox1), Ucase(TextBox2).... ( I have 12 fields in this case) Is there a way to treat the text boxes as a collection and do it in one shot? Just trying to be very efficient and create clean, tight code even on such a simple thing.
