VS 2010 WebClient Get Error When Converting String To System.Net.IWebProxy
Sep 21, 2011
I am getting an error with this Dim Web As New WebClient Web.Proxy = "69.196.16.237:62159" It says runtime errors may occur when converting string to System.Net.IWebProxy What does that mean?
My program takes user input, replaces all spaces with "+", then inserts it into a search url for a specified web host. For example, the user enters:"How long is a foot?"
The generated URL (in this case I'm using dogpile.com) is:
i am learning vb. net for my IT class. i have been set the task of making a simple web browser. i have been able to insert a web browser window into the form and set the url in the properties tab in the editor. i have inserted a buton and a textbox and have written code so that when clicked the text in the textbox will be set as the url property. below is the code i have used
I'm trying to download a simple text file from a web server. It's easily accessible from the web browser and I can download it from the web browser. However, whenever I use a WebClient to download the file, I get a 403 Access Forbidden Error! I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. I haven't come across this kind of error in programming before and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do to get around it.
I'm saving the font of a label to a text file, and when I open the text file with my program, I want the label to have the same font that is listed within the text file. Now, the only problem I am having is that when I try to write the code for opening the text file, I can't set the font property of the label to a string. Label1.Font=[Font: Name=Microsoft Sans Serif, Size=9.75, Units=3, GdiCharSet=0, GdiVerticalFont= False]Here is what the code to open the text file and set the font of the label looks like:[code]The problem for the code happens at line 6. The error is: "Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Drawing.Font'"ing each part of the font in the text file(i.e. Writing Font.Name and Font.Size properties in separate lines and then setting the label's font properties to each line accordingly), but I still get hit with the same error.
how to convert system.string to char for label text?? Here it my
[Code].....
I need to get the strings from the site and input the fields strings in the label text, so I needs to convert char of system.string but i don't know how to fix it.
I need to count the number of files in a specific folder. The folder I need is in the directory path of ApplicationData. The only method I could think of to grab the path, is to combine it via a string, like this: vb.net
I'm not sure if i titled this question properly or am asking it properly, but here goes.I've got serialized objects (in XML) stored in a database, along with a string/varchar indicating the type.
I am having a heck of a time trying to convert my code that works using web browser but I am trying to get the same effect using a WebClient instead.

I wrote the code below which calculates the length of a line on the form and save record. An error occurs when the programme tries to save the record. It gives me "Cannot perform '=' operation on System.Int32 and System.String" error. I checked the data type of "ID"(int), "Microscope"(Varchar), "Magnification"(int) and "Calibration"(Decimal), and they are fine so far as I know.
Code: Private Sub btnEnd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEnd.Click 'Check if the length textbox is not empty

Getting this error when updating a row via a gridview with a sqldatasource in Vb.net/SQL Server 2000. No matter what input (1/1/2010, blank, etc) I give it I can't seem to get it right.

Dim sqldatenull As DateTime Dim DateVerify As DateTime sqldatenull = DateTime.MaxValue
Im in the process of building a call loggin system and its finally been put on the server, but i keep getting the above error "Title" the first stage it goes to be authorised and when the authoriser auths it...it updates the table with the date they authorised it. which is fine, the next stage is the Business Analyst where they check all the content of the task and then approve it but for some reason unknown to me it keeps falling over on the .dateAuthorised
My Sql Column to hold the date authorised is a Datetime datatype and im converting a string to a data time within the procedure this is my Code behind page
Dim StatusNew As Integer = 53 Dim CurrentStage As Integer = 51 ITUpdateTaskTable.Add("@spWorkID", Replace(TskNumLab.Text, "LC", ""))
I'm trying to get the first checked item from a checked list box and turn it into a string. I tried using [code]But that threw an error at me: "Conversion from type 'FileInfo' to type 'String' is not valid." So then I thought of dumping it into an array. But then I couldn't convert the array to a string.Remember I only want one value. array(0)
Working on a Sudoku program and I want to read a puzzle in from a file. So, I read the file in as a string in the form --3-2--1- and so on, where - means nothing starts in that cell. How do you convert a string to a short? I found the cshort function but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a different way or am I making some other mistake?
SudokuPuzzle is a string where I read in the file. squareValue(i,j) is the number is the ith row, jth column position of a correct solution I used 1 to 9, 1 to 9 as the indices for my puzzle (and just ignore the 0, though I did Dim as (0 to 9, 0 to 9)), so that is why I have the i - 1 and j - 1 in there.
For i = 1 To 9 For j = 1 To 9 If SudokuPuzzle.Substring(9 * (i - 1) + j - 1) <> "-" Then squareValue(i, j) = CShort(SudokuPuzzle.Substring(9 * (i - 1) + j - 1)) End If Next Next
The error is: Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.Basically I'm trying to make it so that when someone clicks a location in a list box it increments the correct field in a Stats table by 1 to say that they clicked the location. I've been trying to solve this for a while now and can't get anywhere. My date is in date format, and so is the Date field in my Stats table. My code can be seen below.
Dim Current As String Dim Check As String Dim objCmd2 As Object
[code]....
The issue comes in with the second SQL statement I think. I don't understand why adding a date into a date field would be an issue, I've tried adding it as a string which didn't work.
Dim i as integer For i = 0 to 365 sqlinsert.InsertCommand="insert into cashdate (date) values (getdate()+'" & i & "')"[code]....
getdate is a function in the database that returns the datetime of now i have an error that says conversion failed when converting date or time from character string .what to do now ??
i was used to be vb 6.0. but now im starting with vb 2010 because 6.0 is old. but now i have a few problems with converting some things for my game that im making.
in 6.0 it was
