VS 2005 Use & In String Won't Convert
Jan 27, 2011
For a labels text I need to use the & symbol in the text, so I did this:
Const symbol As Char = Chr(38) and I am using like this:
Me.Label1.Text = "Welcome to A " & symbol & " R Storage Management Systems" I am looking for this because it is how the business name is spelled: A & R Storage
any other Char symbol I use in place of 38 will display the Char, but not the ampersand, it leaves a blank spot. Any advice. And yes I know the & is used to concatenate string variables, but I should be able to use it as a Char.

I am trying to convert a string to double and it is giving error. Bye the way it is not giving error on my PC but it gives on some pc's where other clients are using. String is retrieved from xml data.
<data><vitals>
<username>aiglemedia</username>
<balance>49.60</balance>
</vitals></data>
vb code
Dim curBalance As Double
xmlNode = xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("vitals")......xmlDoc contains the above xml data
curBalance = System.Convert.ToDouble(xmlNode.Item(0).Item("balance").InnerText)... I think so error is on this line.
Below is the link for the error given by the client who is using the app [URL]

First the CINT etc commands will not work for this.I have the following value 2A000000412DF21B in string displayed here as hex. It should convert to 3026418950686503451 but instead I'm gettting 3026418950686503424.I take the string and convert it to bits 0010101000000000000001000001001011011111001000011011 then using a simple function I loop through and calculate the value. how to convert what I have in string to the number above.
Dim dbA As Double, dbB As Double, intX As Integer
Try
dbA = 1 : dbB = 0
For intX = Len(strB) To 1 Step -1

I have a column of data in my text file datafile coming over as a string value 06/05/2011 12:00:00 AM opened in notepad all my fields are in quotes. "06/05/2011 12:00:00 AM"If I open the file in excel it displays 06/05/2011 0:00 If i then save that file back into excel it removes the quotes 06/05/2011 0:00 If I open the excel saved version my schema file will read the date as a date But If I open the version that has the quotes "06/05/2011 12:00:00 AM" and manipulate the string to "06/05/2011 0:00" and try to parse the column I get error string not recognized as valid date time

I'd like to convert a string which contains a decimal number into string that contains the binary value, the octal and the hexadecimal value of that decimal number.Afterwards I also like to convert a string containing a binary, octal and hexd. number into a decimal string.Basically I'm looking for the functions:
dec2bin
dec2oct
dec2hex
bin2dec
oct2dec
hex2dec
I'd not prefer to rewrite a function, I'm sure the framework must have these functions already.

Currently, I'm using the following code to pull info from the management class.
[code]...
I'm also pulling info from the bios, disk drives, video, etc. What I've noticed, is although it runs fine on my pc, it may error out on some pcs since it is hardware dependent.I'm having trouble implementing a check to find if it exists before I convert to a string and add it to my overall string.

I'm working on a mass text replacer program because I'm sick of all the 10-day trial ones out there that aren't very good.The entire program is basically finished (All easy stuff), but now I need to code the actual replace/delete stuff, which I'm stuck on because apparently the way I originally intended to do it is not possible.
The way it works is you load a text file (.txt, .cfg, .ini, .doc, etc.) which opens a StreamReader which writes all the data into a listbox. Then you pick whether you want to replace or delete a string. If you select replace, then you enter the string to search for and in another textbox you enter the string to replace it with.
The way I originally intended to do this was like this:
If o1.Text = "Replace" Then 'The option
Replace(txtfile, str1, a1) 'txtfile is the data, str1 is the string to find and a1 is the replacement
End If
The problem is, I believe this method requires txtfile, str1 and a1 to be strings, but they're all 1-dimensional string arrays, which cannot be converted to strings, or at least I don't know how to convert them.
A friend told me one way I could do this is to open both a StreamReader and StreamWriter and do the replace/delete line by line as they are entered into the memory and write them to a temporary file which is then copied over the original. I can do this kind of, but I still don't know the proper way of doing the actual replace code because the string to find and the string to replace with are still 1-dimensional string arrays rather than strings.

Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String' And Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated This is my code.

I have a piece of code that I got from the Garmin Web site and I need to convert it to VB.NET 2005.

I tried all kinds of online or converter programs that I found on the web but none of them managed to convert this simple program. My knowledge of C is not sufficient to do it manually.
