For some time I try to get the comma instead of the decimal point, but the labels I use won't display a comma. For some reason I don't understand, the msgbox() does the trick, but is useless in my application. This is my last desperate piece of code I tried but it also failed.
Expresserprijs = EuropluscolNL(ArrayCol, 2) - EuropluscolNL(ArrayCol, 1)
' All above are "Doubles" and are fed with data like 21,45 (with comma's that is)
Decimaalteken = Expresserprijs
' Decimaalteken is a string
MsgBox(Decimaalteken)

My user requests to change the . on the numpad to a when entering text in a multiline textbox.So I was thinking about the KeyDown event.To determine if the numpad . was pressed I can do something like this [code]But now how do I change the returned charachter as a , ? All e.Key... properties are ReadOnly. The KeyPress events let me change this by providing e.KeyChar, but in that event I can't check for the numpad .
View 2 RepliesIn VB.Net, is there a way of auto-detecting the culture of a string representation of a number? I'll explain the situation:Our asp.net web site receives xml data feeds for boat data. Most of the time, the number format for the prices use either a simple non-formatted integer e.g. "999000". That's easy for us to process.Occaisionally, there are commas for thousands separators and periods for the decimal point. Also, that's fine as our data import understands this. Example "999,000.00".We're starting to get some data from France where some of the prices have been entered with the periods and thousands separators the other way around as that's the way it's done in many European countries. E.g. "999.000,00". This is where our system would interpret that as nine hundred and ninety nine pounds instead of the nine hundred and ninety nine thousand pounds that was intended.
View 2 RepliesIs there such a thing as a type similar to a point, but contains a pair of decimals, or a pair of doubles, rather than integers? I searched the forums and google with no luck. I can't believe this has never come up before, I must have been using the wrong search terms.

How to add decimal point (with two decimal places) to string, without converting string to decimal? For example (Dim str1 as String), regardless str1 has value: 100 , 100.0 , 100.00, or 100.5 , 100.50..I'd like to get the output: 100.00 or 100.50, with two decimal places.

I'm trying to parse csv file with VB.NET.csv files contains value like 0,"1,2,3",4 which splits in 5 instead of 3. There are many examples with other languages in Stockoverflow but I can't implement it in VB.NET.Here is my code so far but it doesn't work...

I was wondering how i can get as far as the second point in a Double. I have a double that will contain a number such as 12.98 but when i try to show it in a textbox it shows as 12.98000000000000000 I know this is because its double but im unsure about to to retrive only as far as the .98 and get rid of all the 00000000000000
View 2 RepliesI want only 2 digit after decimal point WITHOUT rounding..but format function return value after rounding u can try
Format(0.016,"0.00")
this return "0.02"
but i want "0.01"
OR any function which can use instead of 'format'..?
intLoginTime = txtLoginTime.Text
intLogoutTime = txtLogoutTime.Text
[CODE]..........
The problem is that the numbers seem to round after the decimal point, so if I entered a login-time of 8.15 and log-out 9.30, instead of showing 1.15 as the difference, it shows '1'. is there a way around this?
I'm struggling to solve this problem and am throwing it out to y'all...
For example, if I had a value of 6.5, (representing 6.5 feet), I'd want to separate that value into two values:
6 - 12" sections
1 - 6" section.
This initial value could be any number from 3-16, in .5 increments. (3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, etc.)
For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?
[Code]....
So I need a format string to pass to String.Format that would "move" the decimal point.I can't perform any math operations before doing the String.Format, so it has to work right off the bat.Basically I'm emulating a formatting string from a proprietary server. In it if I say:
"MR2"
for the value:
12345
The result is:
123.45
I'm close with this, but it's not spot on:
String.Format("{0:#0.##}", 12345)
an extra, but not necessary... there is also MR2Z, which moves the decimal 2 left, but if the value is 0 "" is returned.
If I have the code:Dim x as Decimal = 100.0m
Is it casting from a double to a decimal implicitly. How would I do this explicitly in vb.net?

I have
Dim InputVariable as Double
InputVariable = Val(InputBox1.Text)
Now I am in Germany and we enter decimal values with a comma, like 53,52. When I enter this into my InputBox, the InputVariable shows only 53 after Val(). This is caused by entering the comma as decimal separator instead of the dot. When i enter it with a dot, like 53.52, the variable has the correct value. Is there a workaround, so that i can use the Val() function together with german input of comma decimal symbol and my variable gets assigned the correct decimal value instead of cutting it off?

My chemistry calculations program, written in Visual Studio 2008, VB.Net (Win XP), gives completely wrong results when a Comma is used as Decimal Symbol.The calculations are only correct with a Dot (.) as Decimal Symbol.How can I make the calculation results independent of the Decimal Symbol? (Dot or Comma)?(For example Excel calculates correctly with a Dot or Comma as Decimal Symbol)I have found an old thread adressing the same problem, but no simple and easy solution was given.

And how to check for example: is 12.3.2010 member of this string up.
If it is, messagebox ("true")

It's important to say that size of the string is not specified, so it can have more dates.
How to get the second decimal point?
View 7 RepliesIs there a format string to format a decimal to 000000000,00. So first 9 digits, right padded with zeros if needed; a comma as fraction separator and two fraction digits.
0 => 00000000,00
12 => 00000012,00
987456,456 => 000987456,46
So something like myDecimal.ToString("D9") together with .ToString("F2").
I'm trying to extract a piece of text from within the string, defining both a starting point and an ending point. For instance, say I want to search for the text found between "That is a " and " car" in the string "That is a red car", so it would return "red".I know you can use .SelectionStart and SelectionLength, but the length of the word can change, so the selection length can vary. What I want is to establish a specific starting point and a specific ending point from which to extract the text from the string.
