If you need to know what i'm doing this it it:I'm parsing a webpage that lists information such as; Name, Site URL, How many members etc.And thats fine, but i want to put the names in a listbox, and then when the user clicks a name in the listbox it displays the other data about that name such as the site URL and how many members they have.This is easy to do but i have made my listbox sorted so the names display alphabetically, so then my strDBData index's don't line up correctly, to fix this i need to sort the

I just need to know where my code is jacked -up at, I get an error when I created the module level variable ( class statement must end with a matching end class) problem is that every time I add an end class the next procedure is wrong with the same error, so what can I do to resolve this and why is this error coming up. Ultimate goal of this program is to add the invoice totals to the next element in the array each time the user clicks calculate, which displays in a message when the user clicks the exit button, also this code will sort the invoice totals in the array.
Public Class frmInvoiceTotal
Dim SumInvoice(4) As Decimal 'Delareation of two module- level variables
Dim I As Integer = 0' the index I can use to work with this array
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
[Code] .....

I have a List(of String()). I have written a custom comparer (implements IComparer(of string)) to do an alphanumeric sort.Is there a way to sort the List using a given index to determine which position in the String() to sort by? In other words one time I might sort by Index = 0 and another time by Index = 3. The length of all String() in the list is the same.For reference this question is similar to Sort List<String[]> except I am using VB.net and that question is hardwired to Index=0.
EDIT from OP's comments:I started simple with the non custom comparer but I am getting an error: expression does not produce a value. Not sure what I am doing wrong.Here is the code:
Public Shared Function SortListOfStringArray(ByVal ListOfStringArray As List(Of String()), ByVal SortByIndex As Integer) As List(Of String())
Return ListOfStringArray.Sort(Function(x, y) x(SortByIndex).CompareTo(y(SortByIndex)))
End Function

I made an object that has several properties one of which is an integer.
I put all the objects into a list, and I wish to sort that list by the integer property, with the object with the highest property at item 0, with the object with the lowest property at the highest item # ( count -1).
I made the list of that item, as in
Dim GameList as new list(of clsGame)
And I wish to do something like the following
GameList.Score.Sort()
What is the syntax to do that? I looked up the MSDN and didn't really understand what it was trying to say

Return x.Name.CompareTo(y.Name)
End Function

I have a List(Of T) storing a list of Custom classes called Advertisement. Each advertisement contains 3 properties, Year, Make and Model. I need to sort the list By Year, then by Make and then by Model. I have a property in the Advertisement class called Vehicle which returns a formatted string with the Year Make Model like 2007 Toyota Tacoma and ive been sorting on that but its not working how I thought it would. Basically I want to sort the list by Year (decending; lowest year first) then sort by the Make and Model (in alphabetical order) Is that even possible? Here is the code ive been using.

I'm having a bit of a 'brain doner' moment here
I have a list of Objects. Each of these Objects contains a list of other Objects (pseudo code) :-
Private Structure Object1
dim Name as string
dim ListOfObject2 as List(Of Object2)
[Code]....
I need to sort the list of Object1 by the Value in Object2. I have a comparison class which sorts Object2 by its Value nicely.

What would be the fastest way to sort a list that contains a list of objects, based upon another list? An example follows:Say I have multiple lists of employees. Each individual list has a common property value, say "Department". So I have a list of employees, in one list they all have the department string value of "Sales". In another list all the objects have a department value of "Finance". These lists of employees are then contained in a list which holds them all.
I have a second list, which should drives the sort order of the employee lists. The second list simply contains a list of strings like, "Finance", "Sales", "IT" and so on. I'd like my lists of customers to be sorted in the order of "Finance", "Sales", etc.I'm using VB.NET in .NET 2.0

In my program; I need to collect a sequence of events in a variable of some sort. Each time the Sub is initiated, it should add one random event to the sequence (so that it gets longer each time) and then run through the sequence.This is rather difficult to express.What I'm trying to do, is create a Simon Says game with the four buttons.After the sequence goes through blinking the buttons, the program must then be able to capture the sequence of button presses by the user and match that to the sequence that the program ran.So, I need to be able to keep track of two sequences in a variable. Arrays?

I think (?) this is about object design, and perhaps about structural and/or creational patterns. But a bit hard to say when I only know a couple of patterns yet.[code]But... what if we INSTEAD want each Product instance only to (in some way) refer to one instance of a specific list of Components. So we wan't to save the products list to one file, and the components list to another file. Then would I build the objects the same way, or different? So let's then say we have now Class B as below. [code]
1. Will not need to update each component variable of the products list when the components list changes.
2. If the Product object shall be shown in a DataGridView, for editing properties, it seems easier to implement the selection of the component property.
Is this wrong approach? Is it suitable in some cases, and if so, when? Are there other solutions I perhaps am not aware of that would be appropriate? Is this about structural design patterns? and if so, can the alternatives above be catagorized to some pattern type? I don't really know exactly what I'm looking for.. But I think probably I'm looking to understand whether the object design will be determined by the way the objects are saved.. And if i shall save the objects by serializing to file, vs saving to a database, would I create the business objects differently?

We have a generic List(Of Product) that must be sorted on two or more properties of the Product class.
The product class has the properties "Popular" numeric (asc), "Clicked" numeric (desc), "Name" string (asc). In order of naming the properties we want the list to sort.
How can it be sort with an lamba statement? If have found to sort the list based on one property.

In .NET, the Generics Lists have a sort function that accepts IComparer or Comparison. I'd like to sort just part of a list. Hopefully I can specify the start index, count of elements to sort, and a lambda function. It looks like you can only use lambda functions to do this if you're sorting the entire list. Is that right or did I miss something?

This is my first time posting here although I have been lurking for quite some time. I'm stuck with a problem I have seen before and never solved: I have a long list (~23,000) of alphanumeric strings that I'm reading into a List(of String) from a text file, and then sorting. When I iterate through the list after sorting, it appears to be correctly sorted EXCEPT that the element that was originally at the beginning of the list is now at the end (and it should be somewhere in the middle after the sort)Here is a sample input:
PRE1-PRE2_00015648
PRE1-PRE2_00015649
PRE1-PRE2_00015650

I have looked, unsuccessfully, for how to sort a list of strings alpha numerically. The .Sort() method sorts it like so:
abc,abc1,abc11,abc12,abc2,abc21,abc22
I don't want it sorted that way, I want it sorted like so:
abc,abc1,abc2,abc11,abc12,abc21,abc22

I have a slightly odd problem that I think is most likely due to an act of foolishness on my part, but for the life of me I (and other members of my team) can't see it.I have an object that contains a generic list property which I would like to sort. I have written a comparer class to do this for me and I am calling it in the following way:baseObject.ListOfThings.Sort(new ThingComparer()I have debugged into my compare function and it is returning the right values.However After the sort call, the list remains unchanged. Have I missed something obvious, or is there something else I need to do.EDIT: Yes I was being a fool, and the property returning a list was recreating it from scratch each time it was accessed

I am working on the old hangman game. I am up to a part were I have to use a sort button to alphabetically sort the letters already guessed that are showing in the list.
I have found this code:
Array.Sort(strLettersGuessed)
lblGuessed.Text = ""
For i = 0 To strLettersGuessed.Length - 1
lblGuessed.Text = lblGuessed.Text + strLettersGuessed(i) + ", "
[Code] .....
The problem I am having is where the flow chart asks us "is the letter at counter < the letter at counter -1? In my above code I am trying to answer this with this line:
If intCounter < strLettersGuessed.Length - 1 Then
I have tried about 50 different things in place of intCounter as well as strLettersGuessed.Length -1 and nothing seems to work. Sometimes I get an error stating can't be infinite, etc or I get no error at all but the sort button doesn't work.

I have a generic list, like this:
System.Collections.Generic.List<Question> myquestions = new System.Collections.Generic.List<Question>();
And I have a paging example, using a LINQ table acquried from database, doing this for paging:
var questions = context.Questions
.OrderBy(sidx + " " + sord)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize);
Right now, for paging my populated from code list, I have:
var questionss = myquestions
.OrderBy(x => x.Id)
.Skip(pageIndex * pageSize)
.Take(pageSize);
And what I want is being able to order "myquestions" by a string as in the above example. Is that possible?
