VS 2008 - How To Refer To Objects Via String

May 9, 2011

I have lots of labels that I need to refer to.
E.g. label1 = listbox1.selecteditem.tostring & "123"
label2 = listbox1.selecteditem.tostring & "123"

I have 20 labels which i need to repeat the same process for. What I found was this code which always gives me the null reference error.
CType(Me.Controls("Label" & i), Label).Text = "what i want here"

I have stated dim i as integer = 1
And later i = i + 1 until it is 20.

I've tried i.tostring and cstr(i) when referring to it but it keeps saying it doesn't exists even though i have labels 1 to 20 named label1, label2 etc. on my Form.

Refer To Form By String?

Dec 20, 2009

How do I refer to a form in my project by using a string variable? I'm running Visual Studio 2008.My main screen has a number of dropdown menus that, when an item is selected, a form will open:

Dim Mdi_frm_Doors As New frm_Doors Mdi_frm_Doors.MdiParent =Mdi_frm_Doors.Show()In this example, I am providing the name of the form directly (frm_Doors). What I would like to do is refer to the form as a string variable.I'm already doing something similar to access specific controls on other open forms (where str_Field is the name of the control I am accessing):

Index And Length Must Refer To A Location Within The String?

Jul 7, 2009

why this error happens with a bit of code i was trying? The code is actually intended to be for an onclick event, so it actually works there.

But im just curious as to why it errors as an onchange event. This is 9am pre-caffeine, so the reason is probably starring me in the face! On a form i have a text box, and a combo box. The combo box has various options in it, natch. Its a search form, which then fills a gridview with the results.

Drop down list options are: home number, mobile number, post code, Name, DOB

I thought id try and be "clever" and do away with the need for the combo box. Since a mobile number begins with "07", names are just characters, postcodes are character character number, and home number is all numbers and doesent begin with "07", and date of birth has /'s in it.

So i tried this to test the idea:

Private Sub AppSearchTB_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AppSearchTB.TextChanged
Dim TLength As Integer = 2

Index And Length Must Refer To Location Within String?

Sep 13, 2011

I am trying to get the first 50 letters, so I used the subString function to get it. As you can see, I used this code to get it:
<%# Eval("BannerDescription").ToString.Substring(1, 50)%>

But unfortunately it's not working and an error message is coming up:
Index and length must refer to a location within the string.
Because the user is the one who is controlling the data entry! Some times he gonna enter 10 letters other times maybe 1000 letter?

I tried them all but can we use it this way :
<%# IIf(Eval("BannerDescription").ToString().Length > 49, Eval("BannerDescription").ToString().Substring(0, 49), Eval("BannerDescription"))%>

VS 2008 Exactly Does The Margin Refer To When Printing?

Apr 20, 2009

I've built an app, that draws text to four rectangles on a pre-printed page with a design, I'm wondering what the margin refers to?

Also our printer doesn't print all the way to the edge, there's a white border, about the height of this little guy:If I printed from a printer that prints to the edge, will the text be in the same position as it would be if it was printed with the border around it, the text should be in the exact same position right?

.net - String Where In LINQ To Objects

Jun 5, 2012

I have a linq query like that:

Elementos = From b In Elementos Where b.Value.IdGrupo = 0 Select b

"Elementos" is a dictionary(of long, MyObject). MyObject has approximately 50 properties.

The problem I have is that I have a new requirement to accept string parameter with a "where" condition. Something like "property1>10 and property2 like 'anystring' or property3<=25". (That means any property could have a condition. I have string and numeric properties.)

I'd like to keep using linq, adding the condition as it comes. I'm aware that it could produce an exception if the condition is misspelled or something, but that's acceptable (by try catchs). I wouldn't want to parse the string to build parameters or anything.

In .NET String.Format Is Accepting Objects Of A Type That Don't Match The Format String

Jul 7, 2011

I have a function that is getting passed a String and a DataRow.The String is a custom formatter. The idea is to do this

String.Format(passed_in_String, DataRow("ColumnINeed"))

The reason this is being done is at this point we have no idea what the column contains.However, if the formatter is "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}" and the DataRow("ColumnINeed") is an integer containing 42, String.Format is returning: MM/dd/yyyy In this situation I need it to throw an exception instead of returning nonsense.Is there anyway to make String.Format throw an exception if the object does not match what the format string is expecting?
