View 3 RepliesI'm reading a cell value from a Datagridview, and this works fine in other projects, but not here?
HTML
Dim OldGUID() As String = Nothing
Dim X as Integer = -1
For X = 0 To Me.DGView.RowCount - 1
If Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value.ToString IsNot String.Empty Then
OldGUID(X) = Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value
End If
Next
It fails on the line: OldGUID(X) = Me.DGView.Rows(X).Cells(0).Value
with: NullReferenceException was unhandled - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
The Cell has a string value and during debug I see the value, but it fails anyway.
How do you read the data from a file on the computer? I have an mp3 stored on my root folder and I want the form to read the raw data from it so I can do some encryption etc.
Dim fileOpen As New IO.StreamReader("C:file.mp3")
Dim stream As String = fileOpen.ReadToEnd
TextBox1.Text = stream
I have come up with this 2 methods of reading all records on a database table. Both work nice but I would like your expert opinion on which delivers best performance and why.We are reading table "DATA" and filling an array called lstData with the contents of the "Data" field.
1) Method one is using the bindingsourse to go through all the records.
[code]...
My guess is that the first method, while simpler to the eye could use more overhead. What I really would like to know is if the second method really delivers better performance and if it is worth doing all the manual SQL queries.
I figured a fix using if statements which lets me click the button without issues, except just 1; it doesn't read from the listbox. here's the code i'm working with
Private Sub Button5_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
Dim a As New Random
[Code]....
I need it to be able to read from the listbox while it is closed, instead it just thinks that nothing is in the listbox, but when the form with the listbox is open, it reads from it perfectly, what shall I do?

My app has a series of parameters that is to be stored in an external files. Eventhough the "parameter" file could be edited by the end user, I really don't care that much about what the user does to them.
So my two questions are, what is the most effeicent means of reading and writing a file and in what format should the file be in? When I say effeicent I mean, what utilizes the least amount of memory during the process, is fast, and disposable.
Example: XML, Text, something else. StreamReader / StreamWriter or what ever.
still pretty new to programming in general, but I have most of the basics figured out.I stumbled across this problem today, though. I wanted to try making a simple encoder/decoder. However, I am having trouble getting characters from a string.
I have a list(of char) to separate the individual letters in the message (letterList), and textToConvert is the text that the user types in to be encoded. Here's the section of code my problem exists in:
For i = 0 To textToConvert.Length - 1
letterList(i) = textToConvert.Chars(i)
Next i

how to read data from a USB Port.

How I am making it work, is the software starts with a list of EVERY word. And when you spellcheck, it checks to see if the word you typed in matches any word in the list of every word (dictionary). And if not, it's misspelled. If so, then it's all coo'.The problem with this, is that I can only spellcheck one word at a time.So, I was thinking of somehow reading a sentence by words. Taking each word in order and putting them into a string. Then checking each word. My software is a learning software. I have a website that is meant to teach you computer programming. And one of the courses is Visual Basic (.NET).Visual Basic seems to be a popular programming course in High Schools so I decided that it would be a great language to add.

How to save colors to Access Data Base and read them after?
View 1 RepliesI have to create a school reward system. Currently i have written code for creating user accounts and logging into the system. I have been able to write to the file i need to and i have been able to log in. However i can only log in for the first saved account. when i hover over the stored variable whilst stepping through it appears that unnecessary gaps have been added to stored information...User.stored username is the data structure type that i have stored information as...
user.storedUsername = " TestStaff "
I believe it should be like this:
user.storedUsername = "TestStaff"
what is the easiest way to step through a string in this manner... I want to have my program look for one keyword and then another.. in otherwords it needs to find "hello56" and THEN find the word "bob" there are so many places the word "bob" is but I need to locate the "bob" thats after "hello56" Hope this example is clear.

This code will create several tables in the dataset: one of them is "Adv" table, which contains ALL "adv"s from BOTH "orders". This is not what I want.I can handle this by just reading it as a text file - line by line... But I believe this is not the correct way to do this, since there are many tools in VS to do this (right?) ... and also, maybe I can learn something from this "chalange" This is when I ask for your support. How can I do this the "correct way"?
I am creating some reports using object datasources.in my software the user can create a list of products specifying a code, the product name, the price and the vat rate (this last two attributes will be used as suggestions when the user will place the product inside an order).When a user creates an order he can place products within it by specifying for each product the quantity and he can also override the suggested price and the vat rate.So basically i have two models to represent the products:
ProductModel (used to define product name, product code and the default suggestion for price and vat rate)OrderProductModel (used to place products within an order, specify the quantity and override the default product suggestion for price and vat number)
ProductModel:
id
code
name
[code]...
(suppose orderProduct is an instance of OrderProductModel)Now the question is "how to define the report rule to access to code and name?"...I am using visual studio 2010 and by reading here:[URL]they says that the syntax: =Fields!Object.Value.attribute no longer works...
