VB6 Conversion To Wrapper To Prevent Null Exceptions
Sep 14, 2010
We are converting a large VB6 application to VB.net. The problem we have all over the code is the .NET converter did not "reorder" the "IF" and other statements in the code to stop execution when a DBNull value exists. For example, we have code like this all over the place.
"If rRow.Item("av_election_id") > 0 And (rRow.Item("Challenged") <> "SUSPD" Or IsDBNull(rRow.Item("Challenged"))) Then"
This causes a error when "rRow.Item("Challenged") is dbnull
The line of code below corrects this issue but we have thousands of lines of code to reorder and refactor.
If
dtAVVoterRow.Rows(0)("av_election_id") > 0
And (IsDBNull(dtAVVoterRow.Rows(0)("Challenged"))
OrElse dtAVVoterRow.Rows(0)("Challenged")
<> "SUSPD")
Then
creating a wrapper class or something to allow us to keep the first example of code above where it will not throw an error when encountering a Null value? I don't know if a wrapper that reordered the If statements, or captures the error but continues the execution somehow?

I'm practicing on this one, and I know it would be better to just use a string variable instead of a class. I have another working program using a string variable, but on this one I wanted to make it use an array of class objects.
I keep getting null reference exceptions at the line where the object is assigned the textbox text.[code...]

I am trying to load an image onto a web form depending on the image's URL path inside a database. I can get this to work, however I am trying to display a dummy image incase the record in the database has no image and the column is NULL.
Below is the code that I imagined would work but I receive an error:
Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'String' is not valid.
'// Load Item Image in imgMenuItem Image Control //
If (Not IsDBNull(Rdr("img_url"))) Then
imgMenuItem.ImageUrl = Rdr("img_url")

I've just skipped around a few inbuilt VB classes' methods which throws exception. of all that i've came across, methods may throw multiple exceptions but ALL of them are exclusive, meaning there is no way 2 exceptions will ever occur simultaneously, yea and i was trying to make my class throw 2 exceptions simultaneously, hence this question, must all exceptions be exclusive?

I'm trying to add a control on my form and each time an error pops up : "Failed to import the ActiveX control. Please ensure it is properly registered". I'm currently upgrading from VB6 to VB.NET (VB2010 running on Win 7).I installed vb6 on my win 7 PC and i can still add that control on any form - so definitely the OCX is properly registered. My guess here is that VB.NET is unable to create a COM wrapper for that OCX.

I would like to create a .exe wrapper for a Flash Player using VB.NET. I am having a few problems.1.I seem to remember being able to import Flash Player as a control into Visual Studio (2008 Pro). For some reason, I can't seem to VS to import it anymore. (I tried using the OCX from Visual Studio) Perhaps I'm looking for the wrong file. What file am I looking for?
2.Is including Flash inside of a VB program legal?
3.When a control is included in a VB.NET program (such as Flash) does the control need to be distributed in a separate file, or will the compiled application contain it in the ".exe"?
I was able to import the control as the Flash10b.ocx from c:WindowsSystem32Macromed directory as a COM component. Question 2 and 3 still remain.Is there documentation on the ActiveX control? I am trying top figure out the API for ExternalInterface.

I have created a customized list (by implementing IList) where I added a few special methods. Sometimes (but not always), I only want to expose this list as read-only. To do this for normal lists, I use the Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection wrapper, which works fine typically. But it seems by passing my customized list through this wrapper, my added methods are no longer visible, which defeats the whole purpose of having this customized list object in the first place. How can I create a read-only version of a customized list?

I have a file called CalcProg.DLL written in Delphi which is used in Plaxis. I am planning to write a VB.net wrapper for this DLL. The problem is that I don't know what function names there are in the DLL. I was wondering if there was a wrapper generator so I could input a DLL and the generator generates a dummy CalcProg.vb with the function names so I could have a VB class that does something like this:

building a ASP.NET profile wrapper to use with an ObjectDataSource control. I would like to have the serialized profile data that I have defined in web.config be accessible via a FormView control within a user control. I'd like the users to be able to view and update their profile data. I have part of the code but am lacking the experience to complete it. I'm using a aspx page with some text boxes and having users update via a simple form now but I need something more reusable and efficient, not to mention moving the logic to a middle tier. I see that the ObjectDataSource control has some intrinsic ability to view profile common data but that seems to be limited.
Namespace SiteMemberShip
Public Class ProfileWrapper
Private FirstName As String
Private MiddleName As String

This is annoying. I'm trying to put a wrapper around some functionality that uses a web service to return some information. The intention is to wrap all of that communication into a dll such that the user can simply call functions from the dll to get back information, without needing to care about the service.As far as I can tell, that isn't possible, because the service information, as far as bindings and endpoints, HAS to exist in the app.config of the program that references the dll. That means that anybody using this dll won't just be able to add a reference to it and use it, like they would with any other kind of dll, they must also edit their app.config to add in a bunch of information. That's a simple copy and paste job, but it's incredibly unfriendly, and exposes some of the internal workings of the dll to casual inspection.

I am trying to speed up the development phase by using codesmith for generating the business class DAL and info class for the tables of my project. There are about 50 tables with relationships parent child many to many and for retrieving data I have to code several inner joins in stored procedures. I have to combine fields from many tables and this makes working with the info class difficult. Is there anyway to generate info class from stored procedures or to be more exact is there a way to parse the result set of the stored procedure and to generate the info class with properties for every column in that result set.

I'm creating a program in VB.net that does the following:At a high level I receive a file in email, put the attachment in a monitored folder, import the text file to excel, format the excel, and then email the excel file to a list of recipients.
Here is my plan:
Completed: Outlook VBA to monitor all incoming email for specific message. Once message is received drop attached .txt file in a specific network folder.
Completed: (VB.net) Monitor folder, when text file is added begin processing
Not Complete: (VB.net) Import text file to Excel
Not Complete: (VB.net) Format Excel Text file.(add in a row of data,format column headers with color/size, add some blank columns, add data validation to some of the blank columns that allow drop down selections)
Completed: (VB.net) Save file.
Completed: (VB.net) Send file to list of recipients.
Obviously the items above that are not complete are the bulk of the work, but I wanted to get some advice on what some of you think would be the best way to approach something like this. The import and formatting of the file are causing me some problems because I just can't decide what would be the most efficient way to do this.
The way stated above. Import to excel -> format Having a template excel that contains all of the formatting already done for me and attempting to transition the data to this document (no clue if/how I can do this). Is it even feasible? Have the template already created and then import the text file to a new excel file, then transition that data to the excel template?
Something I thought about, in terms of formatting the document, was to record a macro of me doing all of the formatting that I'm going to need and then attempt to convert that macro into my vb.net code, but I'm not sure if that will work. I will need to verify that the text file comes in the EXACT format every time correct?
