I guess this is really a Visual Basic question, but I am trying to implement a choice of Strings statements based upon the month.
example: I am making a monthly free drawing, and I have made a SQL db table that has the months as the primary, then the prizes. I want to be able in VB to get the current date (which I can do) and make 12 IF statements that are the Months so that the proper data is pulled from the table.
IF CurrentDateTime.Month = 1 then SelectStatement = "SELECT FirstPrize, SecondPrize, ThirdPrize FROM MonthlyDrawing WHERE Month = January" and so on
So if I know how to get the current datetime, how do i access the month part and apply it? AnnualCountDownTime.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString("D" This is what I currently use to display the time.

Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?

I am trying to figure out how to do this:
if (phrase = hello) then
"say hello"
if (phrase = how are you?) then
[CODE]...
So basically, I want it to work like a timeline. If I say hello, then it will respond and move onto the next if statement. Get it?
Here is the code I have now:
If phrase.Result.Text = "hello" Then
synth.Speak("Hello to you too")
If phrase.Result.Text.Contains("How are you") Then

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))
[code].....
It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.

I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:
I have to write a function that returns array of strings.
How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.
Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?

I have been looking for examples to find the string between two strings. This top one works fine;
Public Sub ReadData(ByRef keywordStart As String, ByRef keywordEnd As String, ByVal filename As String)
Using reader = New StreamReader(filename)
[Code].....
Now the first one is fine - Ext_Volume is result of the string between the strings <Volume> and </Volume>. <Volume> and </Volume> are unique so this is straight forward.
However the second one - "^FDExp:" is unique, but "^FS" is not unique. There are occurances of "^FS" before and after "^FDExp:".
How do I get the string to search AFTER the occurrence, not before etc?

Dim StringStartposition As Integer

I have a DataGridView that has some columns with dates. It binds to an in-memory Datatable which gets loaded from an string array of data passed back from the backend Some of the rows returned have nulls for the date columns. Solution 1: If I define the Date column in the DataTable as "string" I can easily convert those nulls to empty strings and display it in the grid as empty strings (desired results). However, if the user clicks on the date column header to sort by date, it doesn't order the rows as you want. You get a purely string sort order. Not acceptable

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 with VB.NET, and in class we were assigned this project: A procedure should calculate a 2% price increase on all red shirts, but a 1% price increase on all other items. In addition to calculating the price increase, the procedure also should calculate the new price. You can use the variables strItemColr, strItem, decOrigPrice, decIncrease, and decNewPrice. Format the original price, price increase, and new price in the lblOriginal, lblIncrease, and lblNewPrice controls, respectively.

I am very new VB .NET and just starting If statements. My problem is: Write an If statement that determines whether the variable CurrentBalance is greater then 1000.01. If it is, multiply the variable CurrentBalance by 1.005. Otherwise, multiply CurrentBalance by 1.007.So far I have
Sub Main()
Dim currentBalance As Boolean
System.Console.WriteLine("Enter Current Balance: " & currentBalance)
If CDbl(currentBalance) > 1000.01 Then
[code].....
I really don't even know if thats how I should be starting. Not sure what to put after the first Then on how to make it multiply currentBalance by 100.5.
