I'm making the transition from VB6 (at which I was quite proficient) to VS2008, and I'm running in to a few 'snafoos' as I go. The most recent one (which I haven't yet been able to work out) is I'm trying to figure out how to pass a control (specifically a 'picture box' if that matters) to a function in a seperate class. This was pretty straight forward in VB6, but for the life of me, I can't seem to figure out how to declare the subroutine.
VB.NET is not letting me dance with both feet, or piss with both hands. I've got one foot and one arm tied behind my back at every turn. I want to use this statement in a function: Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS) Seems doable, right?
Function ReadFileStream(ByRef FS As FileStream, ByRef DS As Object) Dim Formatter As New BinaryFormatter FS.Position = 0 Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS) End Function
Right? I mean, CType only accepts a class name as the second argument. I can't give it an instance of a class, or it croaks. Yet if I try to pass the class name as the argument to that function: DataInfo = ReadFileStream(FileStream1, DataStruct)
VB.NET croaks on this, too, complaining that "'DataStruct' is a type and cannot be used as an expression.". It's used as an expression by CType just fine outside of the function. Does the VB.NET legislature provide a clause that allows for a 'Type' to be passed as an argument in a function? Writing all the supporting code ten million times to deserialize a file using CType ten million times in a large application will get very complicated and tricky very quickly. It should be handled by a routine so that any cases and adjustments that come up can be dealt with in one spot.
I have a function that requires a form passed to it. Currently im using:ByVal oThisFormA As FormIf I do this though, obviously where I require txtboxes etc from the form being passed in arent recognised. e.g txtSurname is a textbox on a form called frmCustomer I have, but unless I use byVal oThisFormA as frmCustomerI will just get an error txtSurname is not a member of System.Windows.Forms.Form
I have to ask a stupid question:How to pass values from my form into the controls of other form?I made textbox and button in my form1 and Label into the form2 When I click the button, I want to pass the values of the my textbox in the form1 into the labels of my form2
I create tabpages at runtime each having a flexgrid controls. I need to pass these flexgrids of each tabpage as a parameter to a function byref. This is the code .
I am working on an application using a form with textbox controls as a menu. Pressing enter while the textbox has focus invokes another form and hides the menu form. The reason for this is a requirement that the mouse must not function at all in thisapplication. Not my idea but it is my job to make it so.The problem I could use some. When the user presses enter on the textbox on the menu form the keypress event is used to invoke the selected data entry form and the menu form is hidden. When the data entry form opens the cursor is supposedto be in the first field on the form but the first controls keyup event triggers and the enter keypress from the menu form is still active so the cursor moves to the second control on the form. Having the enter key move to the next field like tab does is also a requirement.
In the keypress of the textbox on the menu form e.handled is set to True but that does not prevent the passthrough. I realize there are many ways to force this to work as I intend by putting flags and so on in the data entry form but I have many to deal with and would like to find a solution I can apply on the menu form rather then adding code to every data entry form to compensate for .NET deficiencies.

is the above bolded line a correct .. it s not working too and the above code is used to generate a random password for users which should be displayed on the text box?
I am having a problem figuring this out. The text that is bold is where the problem is.

pass an array to a function, like the code below shows
Private Sub SomeFunction(ByVal PassedArray() As String) For i As Integer = 0 To PassedArray.Count - 1 Debug.WriteLine(PassedArray(i))
[code]....
But is there a way to pass a constant array to a function in VB .Net, for instance in PHP you could write
function SomeFunction($array) { for($i=0;$i<count($array);$i++) {
[code]....
So to reiterate: Is there any way to pass a constant array directly to a function in VB .Net? Is there any benefit in doing so? I imagine a few bytes of memory could be spared.
PS.SomeFunction({"some", "array", "member"}) ' this obviously gives a syntax error
It looks like passing a list's enumerator to a function "byval" is quite different than passing it "byref". Essentially, regular "byval" passing will NOT change the caller's "enumerator.Current value", even if the function advances the enumerator. I was wondering if anyone knows why this is the case? Is an enumerator a primitive like an integer, without an object reference, and hence changes to it don't get reflected in the caller?This function is byval, and gets stuck in an infinite loop, spitting out "1" message boxes, because the enumerator's "current" never advances past 5.[code]The difference between the two functions is only whether the listFirstItem__ function accepts a byval or a byref enumerator.
I am trying to use a simple quicksort routine for a multidimensional array but cannot figure out the syntax. I am stumped because it works fine in VB6 but no luck in .Net

Trying to generate a Datagridview based on a query which is working fine.
Basic method is:
Create DbAdapter (MySQL) Create DataSet Fill Dataset with DbAdapter.Fill Set Datasource of DG to Dataset Works fine, have used a commandbuilder to handle updating, inserting and deleting. Where this doesn't work is if I pass a MySQL function in my query, e.g.
SELECT FROM testtable TestID, SomeFunctionForward(someproperty), anothersfield
A quick check shows the field omitted from Update and Insert. How do I go about 'setting this property' so it will work on the query with the CommandBuilder. It needs to be done in inverse, i.e.
INSERT INTO testtable TestID, someproperty, anothersfield VALUES SomeFunctionBackward("somepropertyvalue"), "anothersfieldvalue"
i have a very simple problem but i can't figure how to fix it.I'll explain, i have 3 array named "Auto, Legumes, Films". I i making a function so whenever the selecteditem of the combobox change(Auto, Legumes or Films) the name of the selecteditem is passed to a function. The function use this name to display the items of the corresponding table in a listbox.The 3 different item name in the combobox match the name of the 3 tables, so i want to be able to re-use the name dynamically in my function.
Code where i call the function: Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cbchoix.SelectedIndexChanged
This maybe academic but I'd like to be able to pass the MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod() to another function. That way I could split apart the different parameters in one place. What I'm currently doing is something like this...
