I have no idea how to do this, but I want to create a [I dont know what it is called] to allow me to convert a class property to another type.The I could use the following w/ the new type:
Dim stringPhoneNo as String = "(111)111-1111" Dim typePhoneNo as PhoneNumber = stringPhoneNo.ToPhoneNumber()
When a custom class overrides the ToString() method, the C# IDE uses this function to display the class in the debug mode(tooltips, watcher etc) Does the VB.NET the same? I have impression that overriding ToString() method does change nothing. I mean, in the watcher I see Name myBusinessObjectInsnace Value {MyNamespace.myBusinessObjectInsnaceType}
View 4 RepliesIf you try to compile the query below in Visual Basic .NET, it fails. From x In {1, 2} Select x.ToString() The error given by the compiler is: Range variable name cannot match the name of a member of the 'Object' class. There is nothing wrong with the equivalent C# query, though: from x in new[]{1, 2} select x.ToString()
This does not happen with the ToString overload that takes a format (it is a member of Int32, not Object). It does happen with other members of Object, as long as they don't take an argument: with GetType and GetHashCode it fails; with Equals(object) it compiles.
My problem is that I'm trying to parse a String to a System.Drawing.Color. Im trying to set up a simple notepad, here's part of my code:

Try
Dim cdlg As New ColorDialog[code].....
I've googled like crazy and tried MSDN but I can't get a clear answer what to use ToString for.
View 11 RepliesI just converted a VB.net solution into C# solution. But lots of variables have been coverted like:
string var1 = (string)1;
string var2 = (string)intVar; //intVar is a int value
I just want to convert all (string)XXXX to XXXX.ToString() by using some Regular expressions or some other replace methods.
Many times i was not getting correct output,then i put .tostring() at the end then it gave good output.so basically why do v need this?also Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar()) why convert to int32?
View 1 RepliesConverting an object .tostring() removes the leading zeros. The object is not a fixed length, so I can't do object.tostring("0000000") where the number of zeros represents the fixed length.
An example object value is "0357" when I convert that object .tostring it becomes "357".
Is there a method for keeping the leading zeros where the length is not known?

VB.NET 2008. How could I make a new line inside the ToString() Function that VB already have. How to do like a .WriteLine() but inside the ToString() function. In my case, this inside of a class of course. I don't know if you get me. All I want to do is to show a fraction in the normal way not using the slash(/). Showing the numerator on top of a line, and below it the denominator. This inside the VB pre-made ToString() function.
This is what I've tried;
Public Overrides Function ToString() As String
Return Me.numerator & "/" & Me.denominator
End Function
Output example: 2/3
But this is not what I want.
When I am concatenating object values together to form a string in VB.NET, is there a difference in performance or a recommended best practice between using the & concat or the + concat with calls to .ToString() on each object?
Example (which is faster or best practice):
Dim result1 As String = 10 & "em"
Dim result2 As String = 10.ToString() + "em"
I've been programming in vb.net a lot for the last 9 weeks and I have just come across a lot of double functionalities (hope I used the right word for that).For instance, you can use CInt, CType, Directcast or Convert to turn something into a integer. (Directcast doesn't really belong in that line but whatever).
With calling methods you can do DoWork() or call DoWork()With returning values in functions you can do DoWork() = 3 or return 3 Why is this? Is it just to make the transition frm vb6 to vb.net easier? Or about giving the programmar a lot of options. I must admit I don't really like to have that choice, I am always in doubt whether I am using the right method .
Is the default format of ToString dependent on anything server related? Here's the issue: I'm testing and have tested an application on my local machine and ToString(), by default, is returning in a format of "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt", however on our server it appears to be returning as "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt" which the consuming application is not expecting and causing errors.
Dim uvExpireDate = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(1)

I have a custom business object which overloads the .ToString() function. It also implements IFormattable.ToString, so I can define my own custom formats.This approach seems to work everywhere in my app, except .rdlc reports. For example, I have a text field on a report with the following expression:
=Fields!MyField.Value.ToString("lr")
"lr" is a custom format I have created. When running the report I always get #Error as the output. I've placed breakpoints in my .ToString function and stepped through the code as the report is running, and I know the function is returning the correct value, but the report just doesn't seem to be capable of receiving and displaying it.
I have a collection similar to:
Public Class MyCollection

EDIT: I know that I can use DebuggerDisplay, but unfortunately it is very limited. The class in reality is quite complex and I need to have the possibility to define a logic in what I show during debugging, if possible.
Why does: DateTime.Now.ToString("M") not return the month number? Instead it returns the full month name with the day on it. Apparently, this is because "M" is also a standard code for the MonthDayPattern. I don't want this...I want to get the month number using "M". Is there a way to turn this off?

View 12 RepliesI built a simple vb.net winforms project that pings IP addresses and logs the results. It works fine on most machines I've tried it on. I log the status result of the ping System.Net.NetworkInformation.IPStatus) by using the IPStatus.tostring method.
Normally this returns a text result such as "Success" or "TimedOut"Yesterday, on one machine it returned "65" ...which is not one of the enum values. I have a feeling it might be a combination of values. I ran some test code:
Dim status As System.Net.NetworkInformation.IPStatus
status = Net.NetworkInformation.IPStatus.Success
MsgBox(status.ToString)
Which returns "Success"And this: status = Net.NetworkInformation.IPStatus.BadDestination Or Net.NetworkInformation.IPStatus.BadHeader MsgBox(status.ToString)
Which returns "11050" I suspect the "65" I saw was the result of some combination of enum values. Is there any way I can change the code in my second example to show the text names of both values? That is... any way I can see ALL values in this variable?
I have a program that will copy files from 'SWV' to 'SWV20090824' - todays date...It works great, except that todays date is being interpreted as '20093324'.the '3324' portion changes every time, suggesting that it is somehow reading the time or something else instead.[code...]
