I am having problums with Ignore Case in searching. I got a checked listview and a listbox, it searches and fines just the exact word.
For i As Integer = 0 To (Me.Special_Search_Histroy_CheckedListview.CheckedItems.Count - 1)
'Dim itemString As String = Me.Load_Search_name_Listbox.Items(item).ToString
Dim strr As String = (Me.Special_Search_TextBox.Text)
Dim path As String = (Me.Special_Search_Histroy_CheckedListview.CheckedItems.Item(i).SubItems(0).Text)
Dim readText() As String = File.ReadAllLines(path.ToString)
[Code] .....
I have written the code below to check and see if the text the user entered into the txtbox already exists as an item in a listbox before adding the new item. This works well; however, if say "Fish" exists in the listbox but the user entered "fish" in the textbox, the item is added to the listbox. I do not want this because the item already exists. How can I modify my code so that the comparison is not case sensitive?
'Check to make sure the active medication does not already exists in the list If lstActiveMeds.Items.Contains(strActiveMeds) = True Then MessageBox.Show("The active medication you entered has already been added to the list.",
I'm having issues with finding something in list, and removing the item, ignoring the case of characters in string.
The code goes: Dim listItems As New List(Of String) Dim pattern As String = "AbC" Dim array() As String array = {"ABC", "abc"} listItems.AddRange(array)
Here I'd like to remove all items from listItems, that are abc, no matter what case single characters of item are, including mixed case items. So in this example, every items should be removed listItems.Remove(listItems.Find(Function(r) r = pattern))
If I change pattern to match the case of item, then item #2 gets removed: pattern = "abc" listItems.Remove(listItems.Find(Function(r) r = pattern)) How can I find item in listItems, ignoring the case characters in pattern?
I need help with creating a simple search function for an app im making. It shows recipes of various drinks.I want it like when I press "Search" on the main menu a new form should open containing all I need to search for a drink E.g if I search for "A night of passion" it should look through all the forms and then open the form containing the choosen drink.Could something like this be possible?
I've just started developing web applications for the first time. Im developing an ASP.Net Website. Ive started transferring code over from my windows application and found a few errors. In my windows application I had a search function in a form where on click the text in a text box would search the first list box and print any matches in the second list box. [code] In my website an error pops up highlighting the line "words = lstSearch1.Items.Item(a)" and says that the value of the list item cannot be converted to string. How do I go about fixing this or is there a different way of implementing a search function in an Asp.Net website?
I have a folder with a whole lot of music in it (*.mp3 files.). Now on my form I can play these songs in playlists, and other extra's. But now what I want to finish it, is to create a search function. Here is a picture of my Form. And what I want to add is a Listbox, TextBox and a button.
When I type: "Eye of the Tiger" in the Textbox and click the Button, All *.mp3 files in my folder, and the subfolders, with "Eye of the Tiger" in it, are added to the Listbox (The full name, like: "Survivor - Eye of the Tiger") will show at the Listbox. How can I do this, in an easy way, if possible.
I've been using text.indexof() to see if a string is located inside another string, however is it it possible to do a case sensitive/insensitive search option? I've been looking around Google and not having much luck with it.
A huge bonus would be if it could count the number of occurrences inside the string!
Here's the situation: I've got a form that has - RichTextBox - OpenButton (to load RTF file) - SaveButton (to save RTF file after editing) - Textbox (for search phrase) - SearchButton - ExitButton - 2 RadioButtons (WholeWord and MatchCase search)
All of them are working just the way I want them to except search features; I don't know how to write them properly. At the moment, they search and highlight only the first word they encounter. E.g. say I search for word "the" in the document, only the first "the" it encounters is highlighted. The rest is just untouched.
I understand this is because I've only got few lines of simple code as follows If rtfText.Find(txtSearch.Text, RichTextBoxFinds.WholeWord) = -1 Then MessageBox.Show("No results returned. Please try again.", "No matching results.", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information) End If
I did try a few other snippets I found on the Internet including While loop but they didn't work as I wanted them to, and I couldn't understand them either. What I want is, which ever search option is used, when the matching result is found; it will highlight that word and when I click it again it will move onto another word. If I keep clicking, it will highlight the same words (but located in different areas) throughout the whole document and at the end, it will send back to the first matching word. Just like Adobe Reader search.
I've recently learnt that Regex class maybe used to develop case insensitive searches. I have a registry search program that will return only the exact matches from the registry. I need to make it case insensitive. how to do that using regular expressions in vb.net 2005. Im posting my code below:
Sub SearchSubKeys(ByVal root As RegistryKey, ByVal searchKey As String) Dim matchtype As String = Nothing Dim str(5) As String
I'm creating a search function to search through a binary file and find a record based on the users input. Surprisingly, that isn't the problem! The problem I'm having is that as part of this I'm using a procedure to display results in text boxes, and I'm getting the error "Too many arguments to private sub display customer"I've encountered this error before, but never really knew what it was... Here is my code.
Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearch.Click FilenameCust = "F:\College\CustomersFile.bin"
Im making a search function for an application and they need to be able to search by any value in the DB in any of the three tables. Im wondering the best wayto about this. 2 of the 3 tables have the same columns while the last one is totally different. Below is what I kinda "thought" itd look like but no.
"SELECT * FROM cases, opencases, staff WHERE Crime ='" & txtsearch.Text.ToString & "'"
I need to query the results the user can search for anyterm and if it matches something in the columns it return it to the user. Im wondering if the best way to go about this is to maybe query all the tables and then put all the matching records in a seperate table and the dgv look at that table or how to exactly go about it.
What's the best way to handle this situation: I have this generic function Function FieldValue(Of T)(row As DataRow,fieldName As String) As T Return If(row.IsNull(fieldName),Nothing,CType(row(fieldName),T)) End Function In the special case where the field value is null and T is String, I want to return String.Empty instead of Nothing.
could someone help me with some simple coding methodology for doing database searches within the ExecuteReader function that will return results regardless of case?For example, if the variable to search for within the database is John Smith,I would want the search to be successful if john smith is the user-provided variable.
If I use code such as NewName = StrConv(OrigName, vbProperCase) to convert names to proper case, i.e. with initial capitals, I get unwanted results with Irish names like the following:
O'neill instead of O'Neill O'grady instead of O'Grady
I wrote my own database handling code (actually, I write T4 text templating files that generate my database code for me) and part of it takes care of converting values from a database (as Objects) to the desired types.
I have been using this generic function successfully:
vb.net Public Overridable Function ConvertType(Of T)(value As Object) As T Try Return If(value IsNot Nothing AndAlso value <> DBNull.Value, DirectCast(value, T), Nothing)
[Code]....
Simple enough, but it doesn't work... The return type of the function is (and must be) T, so I cannot return a Boolean because a Boolean cannot be converted to T!
Well... It can in this case, because I specifically check that T is Boolean, but the compiler doesn't know this so it doesn't allow me to return a Boolean. I cannot cast the boolean to T either.

what i need is if the ALT key is pressed to ignore it. Like for example if you hit Ctrl+Alt+Del it opens the taskmgr. So all i need is for when the form is open if you hit Ctrl+Alt+Del the Alt key wont work so then nothing happens. Well either the Alt or Ctrl key
I have a form that contains a picturebox and in form_load event it gets a picture from a website with already known link..[code]and it works okay when the user is connected to the internet but it shows an error and it will stuck there if it's not connected..What should i do in this case..Should I ignore if there is no connection or is there anything else I could do ??Or what could I add to my code ??
i have a program using a select case to convert letters to special charaters. My question is how can I get the code to read upper and lower case letters without having to put the upper case letters in my select case statement. Example: Part of my code is
How can i do a workaround for this? I two databases(.sdf). Database A has table A1 Database B has table A2 Table A1 is an exact duplicate of A2 minus 3 columns My dataset(.xsd) is based off of tableA2 in Database B. I can fill all my tableadapters in Database A and all info in table A1 using the dataset. My problem lies when I do TableAdapter.Update() for Table A1(Since the dataset has the 3 missing fields) it tries to update table A1 with info that isn't there and I get an error. How can I update table A1 and ignore the 3 missing columns using the single dataset? Or is TableAdapter.Update() designed to Update the Database with all columns found in the dataset ?
I am currently trying to create a search function on a page in VB.NET which will allow me to search a database for a customerID from a textbox called txtSearch and then present it into a datagrid.
So far I can display the customerID's manually by using
SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerID LIKE 'A%'
but cant figure out how to replace the A with data which will be inputted into the textbox.
