I want to enlarge an image, possibly up to 32 times or 64 times bigger than original dimensions (so that the user can see each pixel) if possible. The following is a simple function that I have to enlarge an image.
Private Function xEnlarge(ByVal Source As Image, ByVal Rate As Double, Optional ByVal Quality As Drawing2D.InterpolationMode = Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic) As Image

I've had no issues with this in C++, however, in Visual Basic 2008 (not sure about 2010), when I run a Do loop of any type, and run a comparison to 0, or even 0.0, the code loops a second time.
[Code]...
To my knowledge it should cancel after the 5th line, since the condition is satisfied. However it does not. Instead it runs the loop one last time.If I put in a comparison of any number higher or lower than 0, it works as it should, and cancels properly when the 5th line is written. So 1, -3, 0.0001, etc. works, so the problem lies with 0.
Now I do not know that much about the debugger, but it should be mentioned I'm running express edition, and I could not find anything that lets me see how each line compares. Nor, after an hour of searching online, could I find a single forum where this is answered (though perhaps that is due to how I worded my search).
If someone could explain to me why the comparison does not work as it should and loops a second time when comparing to 0, or even 0.0 (one person thought it was a difference in balance being double and 0 being an integer),
How do I check if 1 file is the same as another file? For example, lets say I have to files. Both have the same name, but different contents. How would I "compare" the files and tell if they are the same or different?

Is there a way to compare a string to see if it matches more than 1 value?

I'm wondering if there is another way of comparing two byte arrays, that isn't going through each index of the array.[code]But that would give me false negatives. If I wanted the real results then I would have to add a Not.
View 4 RepliesThis is the code I have in one button and I have 2 listboxes that will be filled with the info it gets.This code should compare 1 avi file to one jpg file and see if they have the same name. If YES then it will add the avi path to one listbox. If they don't have the same name OR the .jpg doesn't exists it will add avi path to another listbox.. But currently it is adding the avi name to both listboxes.

I am making a app that reads options of a ini
dim config as new iniconfigsource("patch.ini")
dim test as string = config.configs("news").getstring("test")
Then I made a dropdown with options
I want my script to compare the values of the dropdown with the string readed from the ini
then uses it as selected value (the so called standard value) the one uc without clicking on the arrow if the none of the values match with the string value of the ini then it executes
dropdown1.selectedindex = 0
I have a combobox that displays saved names from the fullname column of my database. This works fine, all the items under the fullname column are added to the combobox. However, I also have several textboxes on the same form that also need to display data from the database, from the same record. So I was wondering if this was possible:

I have these list of RS-232 strings declared in my public class
Public Class TouchInterface
Dim WatchTVbtnCmd As String = "rs232command1"
Dim VolUpbtnCmd As String = "rs232command2"
Dim VolDownbtnCmd As String = "rs232command3"
Dim SystemOffbtnCmd As String = "rs232command4"
Dim RadiobtnCmd As String = "rs232command5"
Dim MusicbtnCmd As String = "rs232command6"
I then have this private sub. For the sake of this thread, what I would like to do is get the name of the label that was clicked which in the code below is already done, convert it to string (not sure if this needs to be done), this is also done in the code below. Next I want to compare the labelnamestring to all the variables in the public class to find out which one it is equal to and then disply that variable which should be my rs232 string in the message box. I have also added "Cmd" to the variable names above so I also need to work out how to add the text "Cmd" to the string to properly compare.
Private Sub Musicbtn_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles WatchTvbtn.Click, VolUpbtn.Click, VolDownbtn.Click, SystemOffbtn.Click, Radiobtn.Click, Musicbtn.Click, GardenVolUpbtn.Click, GardenVolDownbtn.Click, GardenRadiobtn.Click, GardenOffbtn.Click, GardenMusicbtn.Click, GardenMediaCenterbtn.Click

I was just wondering if a computer would add two numbers together (positive) faster that comparing two numbers.
I was thinking that it would be comparison (best case) due to the fact that the 0th bits could be different right off the bat. Where as when adding, moving from bit 0 to N is mandatory for addition.
But then again a computer may add/compare differently than I am imagining.
Just wondering if anyone knows why does my authentication server fail at comparing strings? Also is there a better method of comparing strings than what im using below? User types in a textbox then sends text to server, server then checks it

I'm trying to make a Lottery program on visual basic 2008, but there's one thing that I am stuck with.Note: My explanation may be hard to understand, so if you would rather have me send you my code and see how it works, I'm fine with that. My code is pretty long so far, so I didn't know if i should post it on here.
My program has 6 picture boxes lined up horizontally, and has one text box underneath each one. There is a play and stop button on the bottom left corner.I've altered my program to have animations for the picture boxes. Instead of having a random picture picked, I have it so that each picture box scrolls through a series of 10 numbers when the user presses play.
When the player presses stop, the picture boxes stops scrolling, and random pictures are displayed in each box. (The picture is really just a black circle with a number in it).The text boxes below the picture boxes are for the user to put numbers in. These are the numbers they select for the lottery. Now this is my predicament. Since the picture boxes decides what the winning lotto numbers are, how can I compare the numbers in the text box to the pictures?
I have just started using vb.net and I have a checked list box with times throughout the day shown as

00:45 - 00:59
What I am trying to find is a way to get the current time and find which list item it fits into. What I think I need to do is to first of all get the current time and then go through the list splitting each item into 2 times and seeing if the current time fits. For example: Split the item 00:00 - 00:14 to 00:00 and 00:14 and then check if the current time is more than 00:00:00 but less than 00:14:59 and if so do certain task.how to go about taking each list item and splitting it into 2 separate times so I can check between them?

View 2 RepliesI am trying to write an app which allows the user to input two times , in a maskedtextbox, and take those two times and add them together then output the result to a third maskedtestbox, I havent seen anything else on the web with the same problem, only with fixed date or time, nothing that the user can change.
I am guessing you have to input the a maskedtextbox as a string then parse them to datetime, add the two together and the convert the date back to a string at runtime my code always bails out with a datetime conversion

I have about 1.000 text files in a folder, and I wanto to make some statistics reading the files content.In the first place I store the files path + name in a MyFiles() array, then, when I press a "Start" button I read the several files:
For x As Integer = 0 To MyFiles.Length - 1
FileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(MyFiles(x))
(data processing)
(data processing)
next
then I have copied and pasted the first 500 files in a new folder and added to the code if x > 500 the stop The strange thing is this: to elaborate the 500 files of the second folder takes about 4 seconds, to elaborate the first 500 files of the first folder (THAT ARE IDENTICAL TO THE 500 FILES OF THE SECOND FOLDER) takes 7 seconds.The same identical code takes different times to elaborate the same identical files if they are stored in different folders with different files number.
im struggling a bit and was wondering if anyone can help. Im looking to compair 2 sets of datess and times, for examp2 textbox1 27/02/1980 23:00 and text box 2 having the real time date and time.

Can anyone show me how this is done as i have no clue where to start.

how to get the time difference between 2 date & times Where
from_time falls >= 22:00 of the From_date & the to_time falls <= 06 of the To_Date
for example:
From_Date = 01/01/2011 20:00 ' Where Work Started
To_Date = 02/01/2011 08:00 'Where Work Ended
Time_Covered_Between_22TO06_As_Night = 22:00 to 06:00 is 08:00 hrs How to equate it?
