VS 2008 - How To Put TimeStamp On Items When Entered
Jul 13, 2009
My boss wants a time stamp on items as they are entered, so far I can pull the current DateTime from the system. Problem is when it does this it has a # at either end for instance:
Dim dtNow As System.DateTime = System.DateTime.Now
When I put a break on this dtNow is #7/13/2009 10:48:46 PM#
Our back end is SQL and I have added a column of TimeStarted and I want this data to be input here, issue is SQL does not like the # symbols, how do i Trim these things off so that it will take the DateTime. I put the code in the form load event
Dim dtNow As System.DateTime = System.DateTime.Now
GetDataTable("Update AuditProducts Set TimeStart = '" & dtnow & "' where ID = '" & txtID.ToString & "'")
txtID is a hidden textbox used to pull the ID of the specific item that was just created. I went directly to the SQL server and placed this query without the # on the date time and it went in no probs.
I am trying to program the hamming code in vb... theoretically i understand and know how to do everything, first problem I've encountered is dynamic arrays in vb.net ... is it possible to determine the length of an array from the number of items entered in it, since I have no means of figuring out an exact number or length prior to several mathematical function which outcome will be the data .. directly saved to the array !!
Hi, I'm working on a program that reads text entered into a textbox and creates a list of items by separating entries by commas. Everything is working fine, except, because I am using an array to store the items in the list, I have a limited number of entries. This is only a problem because, as it is written currently, each comma counts as an individual entry. Therefore, users can enter ",,," for example, and it would use up 3 places in the array.
I'm looking for a way to check to make sure there is text after the comma before adding an entry. I've attempted to use the .substring command to check the character after, which works until it gets to the last character. Because there is no character after that, it will give an error.
Here is my code for extra clarity:
Public Class frmMain Dim intCounter As Integer 'Stores the # of commas in the string Dim Messages(49) As MessageProperties
I am creating a Calender application using the monthly calender control.I am trying to implement a search for the calendar so a date can be entered into a text box which intern moves the calender to show the date entered. I have been try to figure this out with no luck, is it even possible to do?
I'm pretty sure 213 is the ftp status code, and then 20120512102159 would be 2012, 05(may), 12(12th), then probably HH MM SS... But this doesn't match my local system, so possibly the FTP server's local time?
Anyhow... This value is a string, am I missing some obvious value of just the date? Otherwise, how do I get this string as a datetime value?
In .Net/VB.Net, what is the best way to embed a timestamp (simple text like "2011/Jan/13 13:44") into a bitmap image?
I am loading images from a database, and they come without a timestamp embedded directly in the bitmap. What I am trying to do is add a timestamp to the image when I save it.
I'm having trouble getting a data stamp to format correctly in VB.NET I need a date stamp exactly like this:
December 10, 2008 at 1:27 PM In VB6, this works perfectly.
Code: Format(Now, "MMMM d, yyyy at H:mm ampm") I can get everything except the Timestamp in VB.NET. Code: Format(Now, "MMM, yyyy 'at' H:mm AMPM") produces - December 10, 2008 at 13:13A12P12
I need 1:13 PM, not 13:13.I can't find anything to format the time to AM/PM vs. military time.I've tried String.Format with no luck either.
I am trying to connect ftp from my vb application code is
Quote: Try Dim ftpReq As FtpWebRequest = WebRequest.Create("*****") ftpReq.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectoryDetails ftpReq.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("***", "****")
[Code]...
My first issue is that ListDirectoryDetails appears to list the modified date/time instead of the create date/time. My second issue is that the date/time field appears to be limited in size to the point it lists the year or time but not both. I can live without the year but I must have time.
Is there anything I can do to guarantee I always get the time and ensure it is returning the create/date time instead of the modified date/time? If not, is there another way to get this information?
Examples: -r--w--r-- 1 root public 1602 Mar 11 13:31 file1.txt -r--r--w-- 1 root public 2514276 Nov 05 2008 file2.txt
I'm working on a query where I only want to use the 8 first characters entered in to the textbox. Is there some attribute to textbox that allows me to do this?
I have the following linq statement to go through a dropdown menu's sub items and get what items are checked: vb Dim UnselectedItems = From xItem As ToolStripMenuItem In tsiSelectObjects.DropDownItems Where TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem AndAlso CType(xItem, ToolStripMenuItem).Checked = False
I get this error tho: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSeparator' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'. As you can probably guess i have ToolStripMenuItems and separators in there
However the AndAlso should short circuit in the case where the item is not a ToolStripMenuItem and it doesn't seem to be doing so (as TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem=false in this case)?
I have to load a data-file (articledata.txt) which is then being used into different other excels which filter out the needed data. After X hours the data-file will be updated, so now I'd like to inform the user that newer data is available (so they can refresh the excels).
I would think I can use the time-stamp of the file when I load it, save it, and then compare it (every X time?) with the time-stamp of the data-file to see whether it has been updated, but I have no idea how to get the timestamp out of the file.
When I click on the Save button in the interface it executes the SaveData() steps. But I am being told that I need to update the date stamp on the Access file. How I would make this change?
Private Sub ProblemTableBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click (ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e AsSystem.EventArgs) Handles ProblemTableBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click SaveData() End Sub Private Sub SaveData() [Code] .....
I need to begin working with milliseconds in .Net 3.0. The data will be returned from an Oracle Database and if I understand correctly Oracle can only store dates that use milliseconds as a TimeStamp. It does appears that the Date type in .Net can handle milliseconds but when I have tried to retrieve Timestamps from Oracle stored procedures in the past I ran into a nasty error. Can .Net handle the Oracle timestamp data type or do I need to bring it back as a VarChar and cast it to a date type?
I have a directory that I need to search. The search will look for all files inside that directory and all the subdirectories. The filenames will output on a listbox. The problem is when I run the search, it returns all the filenames plus the full path.[URL]..I only want to show the filename and if possible, the file creation date.
Listbox output should be:
Filename1.doc File created on 2007-10-02 Filename2.pdf File created on 2007-10-15 Filename3.xls File created on 2007-10-17
I need to validate timeStamp - user input (Format 20091124052714 a.k.a YYYYMMDDHHMMSS)Thought I can use regular expression class object & use IsMatch funtion but not able to find any such regular expression.
An user is allowed to enter as well a value in the numericupdown box manually.. How to capture what he has entered?So far I have:
Private Sub NumericUpDown1_ValueChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles NumAmount.ValueChanged btnAdd_Click.ForeColor = Color.DimGray If NumAmount.Value > 0 Then
[code]....
The above works also if I add a value manually and press enter... But according to the exercise it should directly notice a manually entered value without pressing enter. How to do that?
how do you restrict letters from being entered into a textbox?I know it invloves textbox_TextChanged but i don't know who to do so.
Edit: I figured out that Letters(25) = (a b c etc...) can be used but how to not enter the letter? Uhm.. Like, the user enters "a" and the program recognizes it using an IF statement. How will it NOT enter the letter into the textbox?
Is richtextbox can save a text within its control? What control in vb.net that could save the text being entered within its control paticularly, if any? I need somebody that could give me an idea on what control to use to save the text within the control. I'm not trying to save the text anywhere. I want to save it within the control. I don't have to save it with a filename and a path location. Just like this forum, which everytime you post and reply to a thread, you will have to enter your message in a certain workspace and after you submit, it will save within the control so everytime you open your thread you will see the messages. What control do I need to use in vb.net to do that? info especially the codes to save the text string within a certain control?
I'm making a hangman game (yes everyones starting point) and got the basics running. I've added so extras to it, such as reading in random words from a text file, only allowing capitals to be entered, an option of guesses the phrase etc. All very simple but a nice way to learn.
Anyway, I want it to show the letters that have all ready been entered between each guess. I want to do this by using an array and making sure the same letter cannot be entered more than once into this array.
So far i have the following:
Sub Main() Dim GuessLetter As Char Dim LettersGuessedArray(26)
[Code]....
and i do not know why. I want it to output the letter entered from the array "LettersStoredArray".
I've been developing a vb.net client that connects to a Webservice using SOAP. This Webservice needs the SOAP message to be signed and have a timestamp.To this point all is possible, using WSE 2.0 SP3 I've able to sign the message and include the Security tag into the SOAP Header and the timestamp tag is included too, as you can see in this sample:
I am trying to create a table in VB, with the datatype or Rowversion(TimeStamp) for SqlCe.I can not set the .datatype to SqlDataType. Timestamp, gives an error, but I dont see it, main form just loads, bypassing all breakpoints.Is there a way to set the datatype using .net or am I going to have to do Sql Statements?
I'm creating a game using vb.net and whenever the user inputs something to my program it displays the time and the time displayed until the user inputs something again the the time changes. I have my program display each individual timestamp but I would like to know if I would be able to save the values and all display at the end of my game in a new form.
The code I have is the following: (in timer1=tmrReadInputs): For I = 0 To 3 If (Convert.ToInt32(DataValue) And CInt((2 ^ I))) <> 0 Then lblBitVal(I).Text = "1" Else lblBitVal(I).Text = "0" TextBox1.Text = Trim(Format(Now, "hh:mm:ss tt")) End If Next I tmrReadInputs.Start()
So when the value changes from 1 to 0, the textbox displays the time. How can I save the different time stamp values? I heard StreamWriter can work but I keep trying that and it doesn't work
