I'm wondering if this is possible, I want to be able to call functions from within the program itself by means of an ArrayList? I want to be able to do something such as:
FunctionsList.Add(SomeFunction)
FunctionsList.Add(SomeSub)
For Each Function in FunctionsList
Call Function
Next
Would this be possible? It's important for a project I am working on.

I want to change ListBox1 with ArrayList. But I couldn't find how to use adding a string to ArrayList in tread.
i am trying to add items to a Listbox, but first i need to know if the item is already in ListBox. I know how to compare the selected item in a combo with the arraylist. I use this
If Indicadoreslist.Contains(Me.ComboBox2.SelectedValue) Then
MsgBox("It exists")
Else...

Public Class BasicInformation
Public maleFirstNames As New ArrayList
Public maleFirstNames.Add("John")
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
I want to declare a set of arraylists and the base values so that they are available throughout the entire program. When I set the declaration for the array list as public and attempt to add a value to the array the add.("john")is underlined in blue and it says end of statement is expected.
I'm trying to do is take each item from an arraylist, that is populated through a structure read from textfiles, then loop through them adding each result from the arraylist to a new line in a textbox. What I'm getting is that it's adding only the last item to the textbox rather than listing them, yes I have multiline set to true. Because of the potential size of the arraylist I have it running in a background worker. Once it's complete then I'm trying to populate the textbox. All the code is working fine to that point it's just populating the textbox correctly is my problem.[code]I've tried adding vbnewline, vbcrlf, cblf at the end of the statement as well as placing the text statement in both the runworkercompleted sub as well as in the delegate with the same result.
View 5 RepliesI am having issues adding a custom object to an arraylist at runtime.
Details of what Im trying to achieve.
My object is Fixture which represents a light. My light has the following properties:
Name, isMover, HighlightValue, UserNumber, Channels.
Channels is a dynamic arraylist which lists all the different channels of the fixture. A channel could be the lights colour or its intensity. A channel has the following properties:
Type, FeatureGroup, Value, Universe, Address, Slots and Offset.
Slots is the same again, breaking down to another ArrayList with more details.
Code:
Private Sub Patchingtest()
Dim TestFixture As New Fixture_Structure
Dim Intensity As New Channel

I have a function which iterates through the TextBoxes in my form (and its child controls) and adds each TextBox's name and text to an ArrayList using a structure I called valTxtBox.
Here's a snippet of the
VB.NET
Public Structure valTxtBox
Public nome As String
Public texto As String
End Structure
[Code] .....
Now, the problem is that if I call Clear() for valsTxtBox in the getctrls() function, not all the elements get added to the ArrayList. However, if I don't call Clear() it works just fine. BTW, I'm using VS2008 express which might be relevant.
I am trying to add values from Arraylist to particular column of grid view.
As:
If (Arr_NewContacts.Count > 0) Then
dgvStayout.Rows.Clear() ' **GETTING ERROR HERE**
dgvStayout.Rows.Insert(0, (Arr_NewContacts.Count - 1))
For i As Integer = 0 To Arr_NewContacts.Count - 1
dgvStayout.Rows(i).Cells("Name").Value = Arr_NewContacts(i).ToString
[Code] ......
Datagrid property like AllowUserToAddRows and AllowUserToDeleteRows is already set to true.I am using above code on lost focus event of one of text box.
I found that if using ArrayList, all clone/CopyTo/Add command are shadow copy, not separate copy. How can I do such that after an ArrayList A is "copied" to ArrayList B, change in ArrayList A will not reflect to ArrayList B?

My problem is that I am creating system tools for windows with a good gui and I don't know how to start with it. One of my difficulties is making code for calling any window tools for example, defragment.msc, backup, system restore, registry editor(I knew there's already a thread in here but it is closed).In short, I will create a "Utility tools ALL IN ONE" for my project somewhat like a registry cleaner or advance system optimizer and the likes.
View 6 RepliesWhat I am doing is iterating through all the groups that belong to the top group (Generic reports). Then I take advantage of the GroupPrincipal.GetMembers(True) which will recurse through a given group name. I test to see if the user exits under that group and if true I put the group name in an arraylist.
I use the for each principal in GroupPrincipal.GetMembers to loop through each returned user to see if they exist.
Is there a way to put all the returned users Principal.Name from a given group in GroupPrincipal.GetMembers into an ArrayList? This would allow me to to use Arraylist1.IndexOf to search for user. Which would be much faster then iterating through a returned list using the for each construct.
Sub RetAllMbrs(strUser As String)
Dim oPC As PrincipalContext = GetPrincipalContext() '<- this is function somewhere else in the code

I have an arraylist (arrFirstArry) which I use to populate another arraylist (arrNoDuplicates) preventing any duplicates from being added. This works fine. What I would also like my code to do is prevent adding any partial values which may exist from being added. i.e. my array is like this

What I need to do is read an ArrayList in My.Settings and add another ArrayList to it. The first think I'm trying to do is load My.Settings.Records into myArrayList. I'm not quite sure on the proper way to do this. I've tried things such as Dim myArrayList As ArrayList = My.Settings.Records, I'm not sure if I need New and I'm not sure if I need .Clone or .CopyTo.
Then I have another ArrayList myArrayList2. To get this into myArrayList I've done: [Code] Then to save it back to My.Settings I've done. My.Settings.Records = myArrayList. The problem is I keep on getting Object reference not set to an instance of an object error on the AddRange line. My.Settings.Records is definitely an ArrayList and it will sometimes = Nothing. The objects will only ever be strings.

there are any nifty in-built .net methods that can essentially return either the number of occurrences of each element in an array, or simply return the modal value.

View 22 RepliesI'm adding labels at runtime to my form with a tag. Let's say I have 3 labels with the tags, "1", "2" and "3". I'm adding the tags by counting the labels + 1. When I remove a label with tag "2" from the form there are only 2 left. When I add a new label it will add a new tag "3", but that one already exist. So my "solution" isn't a very good one Although tag "2" is free, I want to give it "4". Any thoughts on how to code this properly?

Where can I find the list of those methods or classes (alternatives for the VB6 functions) ?(For eg: when I tried to find the difference of 2 dates, I couldn't find any other alternatives.

The main thing I'm not understanding is how to open a file (in a filestream I presume) and then to either read or write a certain offset from the file. I'd also need to convert the string I'm writing to hex before I actually right it, but I've got that under control. Here's the current functions as they were written:

I am having a really hard time with the hour(TimeOfDay) VB Express 2010 command, is there any one reading this that could enlighten me on this problem please.My local machine time is in standard time, but the VB hour(TimeOfDay) command sent to a text box on my form is in Military time, is this a bug or do I need to use another command that I am not aware of, or can I use the format command to force it to
standard time and if so how do I accomplish this task please as I have battled with this for few weeks now and I am all out of ideas as to the nature of the problem.
I know about the following:-format(TimeOfDay,"h:mm:ss") 'displays time in standard time with out a padded zero format(TimeOfDay,"hh:mm:ss") 'displays time in standard time including a padded zero!
format(TimeOfDay,"H:mm:ss") 'displays time in military time with out the padded zero!
format(TimeOfDay, "HH:mm:ss) 'displays time in military time including the padded zero!
how could I do the same with the format(Hour(TimeOfDay),"?") function I also notice that the minutes and seconds can include or exclude the padded zero, I would also like to have control over these two commands please.
1) Is it possible to access the Excel mathematical functions without actually opening Excel?
I was thinking of through a DLL WinAPI call or maybe a delegate function or smaller program?
2) Does anyone know of a MS link or area that gives instruction on "how to" use every function of every Windows DLL at all?
Or for all those that Microsoft have chosen to document online at least.
