I'm familiar with programming/scripting.I started playing with Visual Basic when I realized my tech school had it installed on the network computers, and became a bit addicted (within a few days) of the possibilities it contains.I've started writing something basic.. a number guessing game in a Windows Application.

I have a form, which holds several comboboxes, textboxes, checkboxes.I use an msaccess database to store the values into.When I enter text in a textbox and then click the save button I get the following error:conversion from string "" to type 'double' is not valid.But I really don't understand, the field of the database where the textbox text is being stored in is a text type.I searched google for it and the problem seems to be that the type of data from the textbox isn't the same as entered into the field of the database.But the strange thing is, is that as far as I can see, it is.[code]
I wanna perform a function like this. When you save a record, I need the primary key of that record to be auto-generated (X001). Say, when you create a new record and save it, it should be saved like X002 automatically.So to test this before I implement that on this project I'm working on, I created this little program.form.png
All its supposed to do is, when you click on the OK button it shows a code that is fetched from a database table. (X001). Then when you click on it ober and over again. The number should increase. X002, X003, X004... so on.Here's my code
Imports System.Data.SqlClient Public Class Form1 Private Sub btnOK_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOK.Click[code]....
But when I run it, it throws this conversion error.exception error.png.I know its pretty straight forward so I tried to correct it with what I know

I've been just making random programs trying to get the hang of the new language this time I was making a leap frog game where it switches back and forth beetween frogs every time a button is pressed. It also checks if the frog can land in the text box above the button pressed, if there is another frog there a message box will pop up saying sorry space is filled other wise the frog should land there.
[code]...
The error message says "Conversion from string "frog1" to type 'Double' is not valid." I understand what a double is but I've tried And If and that causes a bunch of errors.My Question is whats wrong with this cod and how can I make a double if statement???PS I did try to make an array to shorten this but thats in a different fourm will post URL later
I created an application in vb.net 2005. It works fine on my machine. I tested several different test machines and all were working fine. As for the client, it's generating an error. My application reads from an excel sheet and imports the values to an oracle database. the error being generated is: "conversion from type string to type double is not valid". Why is it generating only on the client's computer and not mine?
a user will enter a number, n, which ranges from 1 to 30. they will also enter a "P" or an "S" (sum or product). depending on which was selected, it will calculate the sum or product of the numbers from 1 to n.i'm having a conversion error on line 5 stating "Conversion from string "S" to type 'Double' is not valid."

I'm doing some error debugging trying to get the errors on our website down to a minimum and there seems to be an error that is popping up quite a lot Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid.
I'm unable to replicate this problem but I can see that it is happening.I've been looking through the code in one of the pages and strolled across this
Dim varWeek As String If varWeek < 10 Then 'Do something' End If
Could this be causing the problem as it is trying to see if a String is less than 10 which is an Integer?As I said before as I am unable to see this error in the first place so changing this to an Integer doesn't change anything on my system.
I'm new to this board and I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I have a problem that needs to be resolved before 9:30PM tonight.

I have a bad bug in my program where if a user presses the check(calculate) button when there is no input in the textbox the program displays this error: "Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid." I would like to resolve this but I am not sure how to do the conversion. I was thinking possibly CType but I am hearing talk of parsing. How do I go about this? the textbox is called mskTxtInput and the button object is called btnCheck which does all the calculation and processing.
