I have an integer that is storing the result of a division between two numbers. I usually receive an result that looks like 5,2496874654. How can I limit the variable length so it looks more 'approximated', like 5,25?

How do i declare a variable length array in VB.NET?
In VB6, i would just put:
Dim sArrayList() As String
But when I do that in VB.NET, it highlights my array name and says "unused local variable". What do I need to do to get it to work without an error?

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to call the GetInterfaceInfo Windows API - it accepts a structure as one of its parameters and this structure has a member that is an array. The API populates the contents of the array when it is called and there can be any number of items in the array. How can I define such an array in my structure?
If I just use a normal .NET array like so then the program just crashes (no exception thrown)
<StructLayoutAttribute(LayoutKind.Sequential)> _
Public Structure IP_INTERFACE_INFO
Public NumAdapters As Integer
[Code]...
and this works fine, but the problem is I have to define the SizeConst attribute as you can see to something large (64 in this example) so that the API doesnt fail because the array wasnt big enough. Firstly this is a waste of memory as in most cases the number of items the API sticks in the array will be less than 10, but secondly if there was ever a case where the API wanted to put more than 64 items in then it would fail.
Using ReDim to set the length of the array at runtime seems to have no effect, and that SizeConst attribute has to be set to a constant value so there's no way I can dynamically set it.
Is it possible to have a 2 dimensional array of a type struct such that the size of the last dimension can vary by element of the first?eg:-structure mydatadim param1 as integerdim param2 as byteend structuredim main_array(100,10) as mydataThen at anytime change the size of the last dimension like...redim main_array(10, 5)redim main_array(15,7)leaving all other array entrys' last dimension unchanged and independent??VB2005 starter

View 11 RepliesI have 2 arrays X(n) and Y(n). I would like to pass them between subroutines:

The problem comes when n can be changed in sub1 say a textbox. How do you transfer an array of variable length between subroutines?
I have a problem when debugging a code. On top of class I declare an array, and the length of array is an integer variable which is applied value below declaration of array.
E.g. class declaration
Dim array1 (2, integer) as string
Public Sub
integer = 5
End Sub
So basically, array is created with integer being 0 or whatever, because it is declared before integer was assigned a value. But the problem is, I need it to be declared at class variable so I can use array in different subs.
I am wanting to create 2 tables called Stores and Locations. Locations is a table containing a unique location_code and a location. Stores is a table containing a unique store_code a store name and a variable number of location_code's and a relationship is set up between the 2 tables.
creating the Stores table in particular the location_ code. Can rows in a table have differing numbers of columns? as a particular store type could be in many diferent locations. I feel it should be possible to set up some sort of array of Location_code's in the Stores table.

Using VB or C#, I am getting a string of variable length from the database. This information is sensitive information that only certain users will be able to see.I have two cases that will use the same logic (I think).scenario 1: replace all characters with xscenario 2: replace all characters with x except the last 4 characters (assume length > 4 - this check is being done).I thought that this would be easiest using Regex.Replace(input, pattern, replacestring). As opposed to a lot of string handling with substrings and forcing a length of 'x's.
View 2 RepliesWhile using the Socket.Receive method to receive messages through network, you should define a variable as the buffer and you have to specify the length like this: Code: Dim _ReadBuffer As Byte() = New Byte(LENGTH) {} My question is: What is the bad thing about increasing the length of this variable even if the received messages are sometimes shorter? (i.e. if some body let it 10000).
View 1 RepliesI have an existing vb.net application which uses a home grown database. The database has over 60,000 unique multi-field records in it.The user can search in each field using drill-down to find a record, and then can add that record to a separate database.(60,000 collectibles described in a master database. User can drill down by category, manufacturer, year produced, etc. to find a record and then add it to their own 'collection', 'wanted', 'have for sale', or 'spares' database for record keeping.)
Instead of having them drill down, I would like for them to be able to perform a search and have all of the results (any amount of matches from 1 to 60,000+) appear on a scrolling form with a checkbox next to each so that they can simply check any that they want and do a mass add to their list databases.
The part I cannot figure out is how to have vb.net (2008) create a variable length scrolling form with the results, and how to identify the checkboxes (generated by the system for search matches) to see which, if any, have been checked by the user.

I have a field displaying on a datagrid that the user has asked to be variable length based on the data that is returned. Is there an easy way to determine how many characters are returned for a field and then converting that to a pixel length so that I can change the length of the field in the code.

If using the following in an if statement I get an error: If trg.Name.Substring(4, 6).ToUpper <> ("ABCDEF") Then I get the error: "Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length"
I assume this is because the string (trg.name) is too small for the 4, 6 substring. What would be the correct method of working around this problem? VB.net Studio 2008.

Maybe I missed it in here, but I couldn't get a search to find anything.
Is it at all possible to change the length of a tab in a normal TextBox. I hate how deep the tabs go. I'd like it if they were a bit smaller.
Seen this in
Dim file as FileStream = New FileStream("myfile.text", 0, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim reader as BinaryReader = New BinaryReader(file)
Dim data as Byte() = reader.ReadBytes(CType(file.length, Integer))
Why is the file.length being converted to Byte, when Integer range is greater, and the code not failing to do so? I don't understand.
I have a string:
0E0100000000000000000003CB7352
I need to be able to look at Offset 14 and Length is 1B. I need to be able to look at bit 0 - bit 5. I have NO idea how to read data like this so I wish I could be more specific but I can't. Can someone tell me how to read the specific bits and translate them? I have no idea how to google this. So if someone wants to point me to a search pattern. That would be awesome too.
Here is a chart that describes the bits:
bit 0 : Light LED (head) status, 0: OFF, 1: ON
bit 1 : IR-Radar power status. 0: OFF, 1: ON
bit 2 : IR-Radar detector status: 0: fine, 1: barrier detected.
bit 3-5: Charger staus
0x00 : nothing happen
0x01 : charging completed.
0x02 : in charging
0x04 : something wrong, error occur.
bit 6,7: undefined, do not use.
Is there any container that would hold a number that is 10,000 characters in length? would I have to create one? If so how would I go about doing something like that?
