I am using vb.net 2003 for a stand alone windows program. I access an Access database file via Jet 4.0 and OleDbDataAdapter.
The program is like a "check book" for commercial fishermen to track their landings in relation to the amount of "quota" that they have been assigned. The program is structured so a fisherman can enter multiple boat names and track each one seperately. To work on a particular boats account, the fisherman would select a boat name from a drop down list. The boat name is then captured and assigned the string variable name of "xid" and in a Module have this code:Public xid As String
I have used the DataAdapter Configuration Wizard to setup the data connection and assign the DataAdapter and DataSet. I went into the code and manually entered a WHERE clause to filter the data for the selected boat. The proper syntax was an issue that I had a problem with earlier, but once I got that correct, the program worked fine. The code that works is below:
[Code]...
i'm using a foreach to loop through my regular expression like:
For Each secwordMatch As Match In secwordmatches
Dim secWord As String = secwordMatch.ToString
Next
[code].....
Say that i have the following code that parse about 20k records from the DB.
Code #1
vb.net While reader.Read()
list.Add(If(Integer.TryParse(reader(0).ToString, 0), Integer.Parse(reader(0).ToString), 0))
End While
And then another code which does the very same thing but it seems to be a little cleaner.
Code #2
vb.net While reader.Read()
Dim storeowner As Integer = 0
Integer.TryParse(reader(0).ToString, storeowner)
list.Add(storeowner)
End While
This is what i am confused about; does the compiler creates a new variable automatically when i use the if statement without strictly declared variable? What approach is better in sense of performance?
I was wondering if it was possible to change the default variable name that shows up in the auto-complete for a Try-Catch block. It populates as:
Try
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
I want it so it populates as:
Try
Catch excError As Exception
End Try

Notice the catch (Type) instead of catch (Type myVariable). Is this possible with VB.NET, or do you always have to declare a variable when you catch exception types, like so:

View 1 RepliesI have a vb.net dll which I imported in an unmanaged c++ project.I successfully created an object of the class object using:
CComPtr< IWSconnection > pIWSconnection;
pIWSconnection.CoCreateInstance( __uuidof(IWSconnection ) );
Then, when I tried to call a method from the dll:
pIWSconnection.connect(...);
I am getting an error: pIWSconnection undeclared identifier.Why would the object work with 'CoCreateInstance', and not with 'connect'?

View 1 RepliesI have a program in VB.Net that receives mails from Outlook, extracts attachments and inserts the attachments into a table through a query. I would like to put the query/queries in a Try/Catch block, but cannot do so as Outlook exceptions cannot be caught, and it gives me an error, and unless I put a very specific exception, I cannot catch it. Is there a workaround?
Edit:
Try
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
Exception is underlined and when I hover on it, it says: "Catch cannot catch type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Exception' because it is not in 'System.Exception' or a class that inherits from 'System.Exception'". This is affecting all my other code which I'd like to put into a Try/Catch block.
The following code causes a "Warning" that Variable is used before value assigned.How do I restructure this Try/catch to eliminate error on the myreader.close command in the Catch part? Code appears to work fine but I dont like Warnings. [code]

I need to catch log4net exceptions (its own exceptions not app exceptions logged by it). I wish there's a way of doing it this way: [code] I have this code implemented and there's no errors in compilation but i force log4net to have an error (pointing to a non existing database in the config file) and nothing is threw.I've tried the listener aproach: [code] and it's writing the errors to log4net.txt, the forced ones i mean.This last aproach has a couple of drawbacks: it won't append every error to the file, if the error is the same it doesn't write it, i can't get the listener to write every error to that file, only one (I don't know how to fully configure the trace listener, it might be that). Thus it won't append the date and hour to every line wich is a necesity for me. Finally i can't give structure to it (xml). Even if the listener work i need to use the try/catch aproach, since i'm using ExceptionHandling from Enterprise library to log the errors in my app.

I have a project converted from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2010. It compiles and runs.
When I prune "unused references's from this project as listed by Visual Studio, the project fails to compile with the subject error message.
In particular one of the "unused refererences" is to "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll". The IDE does not allow me to add back this particular reference.
What do I need to add back as a referenceto get this items?
A few weeks back in reply to a thread, I said then that it's sometimes worse to use a Try/Catch when there's nothing in the Catch!There are exceptions to that I'm sure, but too often the Try/Catch is used with a blank Catch that makes even the developer scratch their heads when the program crashes because they have nothing to go on (by their own doing).DevExpress (and I'm a big fan of their stuff) has a little three minute video that encapsulates that concept well and I thought that you all might enjoy watching it:[URL]
View 1 Repliesi already finish this module but while doing 2nd module i notice that my 1st module doesnt work anymore, then i checked my code, i double click the control at design time and thats it instead it brings me to my actual code of that control, it brings me to another event, like this, this is where my original codes are placed:
Code: Private Sub lblSupplier_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub then, after the poblem occurs, the control created another event like this:
Code:Private Sub lblSupplier_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub notice the difference, they are the same click event but the other one has an "_1" at the end of click.
1. Write a Visual Basic Console Application which creates two DateTime objects. One DateTime object should be used to store a value for date purchased. The second DateTime object should be used to store a value for date paid. See below for more information.2. Assign values to the two DateTime objects. See page 197 in your Doke & Williams book for help with this step.3. Use the toString method to display the two DateTime objects. See page 197 in your Doke & Williams book for help with this step.4. Compare the two dates to determine which date occurred first.

Anyone know of a product/solution that creates web forms on the fly? I want to allow my users to create their own web forms.
View 1 RepliesI have a Car object that does a few things, but I need the program to create New Cars without having to write the code for every new one. Basically, the user checks some combination of Checkboxes and then pushes a button. And I need the program to create a New Car with a unique name for each combination of checked Checkboxes when the button is pushed.
For example, if Checkboxes 1,3,5 were all checked, it would create a New Car that had a different name than the New Car that is created when Checkboxes 1,2,3 are checked.
But I also need the program to be able to check when a New Car has already been assigned to some combination of checkboxes, so that it doesn't create a New Car every time that Checkbox 1,2,3 are checked and instead will use the Car that was already created.
The sample program for the Chart Control is written in C#. It provides VB snippets but there appears to be a key piece of information missing or at least hidden. Can anyone explain to me what is needed to get the Chart Control working in VB.NET VS2008 Pro?Using the Chart Controls sample, I tried to create a RangeBar. The only thing showing is a big red X across the chart. Here's the code almost exactly as taken from the VB sample:
