I am using an INSERT INTO statement and one of my database variables is a varchar(51). Can a string be directly stored as a varchar or do I need to convert this to something else beforehand?
I got the dates stored as varchar(100). I need to get them sorted when I use these records but I can't now because they are not stored as datetime. Is there any other way to sort dates or if somebody know would I loose my data if I would try to convert the column from varchar(100) to datetime now as it holds my dates or maybe it would convert ok?
I'm trying to insert a string that contains a comma into a varchar in vb.net. How do I make the insert statement I'm building understand that I want "X,Y" to be in the varchar and not X in the varchar and Y in the next column?
I'm pulling records from a db table (sybase) where I have run into a problem with a long varchar field. Using the OLEdb class I convert the field into a string variable which works fine in most cases, but there are problem with a few records. Examining the field in the database it shows that the value is not null, but the length of the field is 0.(SELECT field, length(field) FROM table). When I try to convert this into a string the result is rubbish.strContent = objReader.Item(i). I can't figure out what's the problem here, so I have avoided the issue by doing a table update before I start the process of getting data (I set the field value to null if field.length = 0
After having some trouble in my own code using String.Split and the Split(String(), Int32, StringSplitOptions) overload, I decided to look to the MSDN.I copied the entire VB.NET code example from this link: url...I placed it in a new class, and received the following errors (same errors as my own code example):[code]Why can my code not recogognize the string() parameter overloads to String.Split? Remember, i took the code from the MSDN link above, copied and pasted and it still did not work.I am counting on using the string() instead of char() overloads shown here: url...
I'd like to convert a string which contains a decimal number into string that contains the binary value, the octal and the hexadecimal value of that decimal number.Afterwards I also like to convert a string containing a binary, octal and hexd. number into a decimal string.Basically I'm looking for the functions:
dec2bin dec2oct dec2hex bin2dec oct2dec hex2dec
I'd not prefer to rewrite a function, I'm sure the framework must have these functions already.

I'm also pulling info from the bios, disk drives, video, etc. What I've noticed, is although it runs fine on my pc, it may error out on some pcs since it is hardware dependent.I'm having trouble implementing a check to find if it exists before I convert to a string and add it to my overall string.
I have a textbox where I can enter a number. If the number exists in my sql database then it would change the label accordingly. It seems to work with any input number except for numbers starting with zero. If I input a number starting with zero(012345678) I get the error: Arithmetic Overflow error converting varchar to data type numeric.

I have following code snippet that is supposed to replace the existing text in a local text file but instead it's just appending the new values on top of the file and pushes the older text down.
Here is the code: dim sr as streamreader = file.opentext(path) dim contents as string = sr.Readtoend() sr.close() Dim sw as streamwriter = file.Createtext(Path) sw.Write(contents.replace("old value1", "new value") sw.Write(contents.replace("old value2", string.empty) sw.close()
What do I need to change to make it replace existing text rather than append?

I'm trying to concatenate two properties into one string like so:
public class thing public property word() as string() public property count() as integer()
[Code]....
This is what I want, but it doesn't help that its in the debug output...I need to put it into a single string. I've tried using a_thing.count(i).tostring, but it doesnt work. If I look at the arrays individually, they have exactly the contents I want. But I can't concatenate them. Does it have something to do with suppressing the new line that debug.writeline usually creates?
