I need to generate a report that shows the 52 weeks of a year (or 53 weeks as some years have) and their start and end dates. There is an ISO spec to do this but seems awfully complicated! Im hoping someone knows of a way to do it in C# or Visual Basic (its actually for Visual Basic 6 but I will try port it across)

View 3 RepliesI need want to create a array for the days of the week.
Dim DayOfWeek As Integer = Date.Today.DayOfWeek might give me 1 meaning monday, and i want it to looking in the array for the value 1 and find the one that matches.
I have this requirement in my app. I need to define a week, so for example, I have a GameWeek table. it has weekid(PK),description column. Then I have a GameWeekDay table which has an ID,WeekID (fk to above table), GameDate, isValid (bit field). So once I create a week, I need to select valid days for that week. so I will have a checkbox column for a user to click a day. and on saving, I will save the Date and the checkbox value to my GameWeekDay table. What I need is a clever UI design.

A form that will have a drop down menu that will display the drives available in My computer. I really only want this list to show USB drives, but I wouldn't know how to limit the list to only show certain drive letters. And then how you would know what Drive letter would appear.So they would select there backup location from the drop down. Then the next option would be to select from 3 or 4 different different options that would have have radio buttons next to the options that you could select. Would be like: Playlists, Schedule, Media Library. They could select all or one of these. Each of these would represent a folder, or File that would be copied to a folder on the selected USB drive. Then the final button would be labelled Backup, and upon pressing that depending on what options were selected files would start to copy.
Now I know how to do the final copy part kinda, what I don't know is how to do is select the destination on the fly from what was selected in the drop down menu. And then how to make sure that what is being copied is that that is selected from the check boxes.

View 5 RepliesA routinely used application suddenly became impossible to access, with and error code indicating that the "VB Backup\Backup" file cannot be found. When I click File Open, the projects display as always. I select the application, double click the .sln file--and nothing happens. When I try to access the .vb file in Solution Explorer, it says "Cannot find VB Backup\Backup Files."
What are the Backup Files, when are they created, and why would they suddenly be "gone?" Is there any way to rebuild the Backup Files? I used the application last night and it worked fine. Today it can't be opened because the Backup Files cannot be found.
I have backups of the application folders, but get the same error message. Cannot be opened because the Backup FIles cannot be found.
how to get the name from dayofweek? [code]
View 3 RepliesSorry in advance. I emailed myself my coding since I don't have vb on my personal computer. Sooo, the format is going to be off. But my program allows the computer to generate a random date. The user has to guess what day of the week the random date lands on. I have written the whole code. It all works except when user checks his/her answer. The answer always comes up as incorrect. Here is the coding:
[code]...
So I can't figure out how to find the first day of the week. I also need it in a format like ("yyyyMMdd")
Right now I only have it telling me its Sunday. I need the exact date.
Dim FDW As Date
FDW = WeekdayName(1, FirstDayOfWeek.System)
MessageBox.Show(FDW)
I need a function that will give me the day of the week for any date...and possible assign the day of the week to a string...

I have a ComboBox where I select which day of the week I want it to update. And each week at that day, at a predefined time as well I want it to add 1 to an integer. I want it to continue doing this until I stop it. When I close the program I want it to do a check on start up if it has past that set date and time, if it has it should add 1 to the integer again, if 2 weeks have past I want it to add 2 to the integer.
View 14 RepliesI have this app written in VB.Net with winforms that shows some stats and pictures on a bigscreen monitor.I also monitor the memory usage of sad app by using this. Process.WorkingSet64
I know windows does not always report the correct usage but I just wanted to know if I didn't have any little memory leaks which I had but are solved now. But the first week the memory usage was around 100MB and the second week the memory usage showed around 50MB.
So why did it all of a sudden drop while still running the exact same code?I can hardly imagine that the garbage collector kicked in this late since the app refreshes every 10 seconds and it has ample time in between those periods to do it's thing.Or perhaps there is just better way to get memory usage for a process that is more reliable.
is there any ready to go solution within the microsoft framework, regarding conversion of date to day?For example, i would like to convert this string 21/03/2010 (dd/mm/yyyy) to Sunday?
