Yes Another 'Passing Variables Thread"
Jan 7, 2012
VBasic / VS2008 / .NET 3.5 / Meas Studio 8.5 I've searched and seen a number of convoluted ways of doing this but.... What I am trying to do should be simple and in my mind (and from previous experience) it should work. It doesn't At least not after 10 hours of tweaking, editing, researching....
Straightforward project, 3 components - MainModule, MainForm, CNCNoForm. I declare public var NCPgmNo in the module. I open the CNCNoForm from the MainForm. This form has 2 controls - Numeric Up/Down Box & Close Button. I enter a number in the Num box (read only property is set to false), then assign the value to the var. NCPgmNo in the value-changed event sub. I close the form, returning to the MainForm. The variable does not pass even though it is public and declared in the module. I tried removing it from the Numupdown event and assigned the var before 'me.close'. Still N/G.
If I put a breakpoint right after the line that assigns the var, it is correct. It just does not pass to the MainForm. I started with a textbox, then changed to a Meas. Studio Numeric control, finally Numeric up/down. Same results with all 3. I though the CNCNoForm was broken so I removed it from the project and rebuilt it with a new name (yes name references in the MainForm and MainModule are correct). One other thing. If I call the CNCNoForm repeatedly, it reads the previous value. I am ready to give up computers and take up farming or hiking.

I have code, shown below, that works all except for 1 thing: The variables being passed byRef get passed, but once modified in the else section of the "if me.invokerequired" code of RecordData, the variables are never updated in the calling function. To reiterate, the calling function does not receive the updated data that is in the variables custid and amt.When debugging, I see the data change in the else section of "if me.invokerequired", but once it returns from the callback the data is missing.[code]

I am trying to call a method that started on a background thread on the UI thread calling BeginInvoke and passing in a delegate as follows:
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Function() UpdateApplicationDataUI())
to call this method:
Private Sub UpdateApplicationDataUI()
...
End Sub
However, I get an error in the call to BeginInvoke (the UpdateApplicationDataUI portion of the delegate is stating "Expression does not produce a value").
Me.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(Function() New Action(AddressOf UpdateApplicationDataUI))

Question 1: What is the difference between "Background Worker" and "Worker Pool" as indicated within the MSDN samples provided.
Question 2: I noticed while using, AddressOf _Function_, variables cannot be passed; what would be an efficient solution to this?
Question 3: While using multithreading is it required to invoke before setting variables, or only form properties?
Question 4: While using System.Net.Sockets is it safe/efficient to use Application.DoEvents while waiting for new data; or would be using a Do While loop be fine without DoEvents since the action would be multithreaded? Note: there can be up to 2000-3000 sockets in use at a time.

I have my own little tutorial about passing variables, and if you'll look at the code below, you'll see how I am passing the variable from one sub to the secondsub. Here's my question, how can I pass a value back from the 2nd sub to the 1st? So if I want to sum intA plus intB, and want to return that value to the first sub, how do I do that? [code]

I am using Visual Basic 2008 for this assignment. I have a project that I am working on and I need to be able to use form variables across the entire project.
I have looked on other forums but no definitive answers.iI have declared variables as such Public StrV21true As String and "Public StrV21False As String
Now apon assigning a string to the variable with an If Then Else Command, I go to the next form expecting that the assigned variable will be available for use in this second form but to my dismay it tells me that the variable has not been declared and will not even show up in Intellesence. Like I said before from research on the net I am using the public class in Form 1 to hold the variables and am kind of expecting the public class variables to be available through all the forms in the project. I would really like to know how to do this so as I can finish my project for class.

I have two forms and I'm trying to pass a declared variable from form1 to form2 and then pass that variable in a sql query that I have in a dataset that is bound to my form. I know that my query works but it's not producing any data. I have debugged my form and can see the data being passed in the variables elsewhere on the page but I'm not sure of the syntax within the query.

I am getting an "Automation Error" with the following:
Dim sheetdate As String
Dim sheetdate1 As String
sheetdate = "7/1/2011 23:59:0"
[code]....
I need to pass two variables to the WHERE clause. If I manually input 'sheetdate' and 'sheetdate1' into the clause -
WHERE (((ticketorders.TimeStamp)>#7/1/2011 23:59:0# AND (ticketorders.TimeStamp),#7/2/2011 23:59:0# ...
everything works fine. The problem is I have multiple sheets and I would rather not have to add the entire sub-routine to each and every sheet. My thought is, it would be easier to create a PUBLIC sub and pass the time values (sheetdate and sheetdate1) to the WHERE clause.

I've got a form in my MDI container. Lets call it Form1. I now want to show a dialog box (Form2) and pass the primary key from Form1 to Form2. Do i create a public function on Form2 called SetMe() or Do I create a public on Form1 And read from it? From a best Practice point of view, How would you go about it?

I am passing 2 variables from form1 to form2. In form2 I want it to where it will filter my dataset according to the variables in form1, before it's displayed. In form1 it works, but when passing those values (JT & WRID1) to form2, it doesn't work.
Form1:
Public Class Form1
Friend JT, WRID1 As String
Private Sub ShowForm2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ShowForm2.Click
JT = Me.dgvWLog.Rows(dgvWLog.CurrentRow.Index).Cells("dgvJT").Value.ToString
WRID1 = Me.dgvWLog.Rows(dgvWLog.CurrentRow.Index).Cells("dgvWRD1").Value.ToString
End Sub
End Class
Form2:
Dim s As New Form1
Dim JT As String = s.JT
Dim WRID1 As String = s.WRID1
Me.DataSet.Form2_Get.DefaultView.RowFilter = "WT = '" & JT & "' And WRID1 = '" & WRID1 & "'"

I am fairly new to VB.NET so I research alot when I run into bugs. Problem is I cannot find a solution to this, or anything remotely dealing with it. I am developing software to connect to a remote mysql server, run a query, and come back with a dataset. I have run this query against the server through a mysql prompt and have received a result successfully. But when i try to run this query from my app, I get an object reference error.
Through debugging I have found that the @ character used for variables in sql strings, is causing the problem in my code, but i cannot find a way to pass this query to the server without visual studio throwing errors. Every answer to the use of variables that I have found, suggests specifically stipulating the variable values in my code, which I do not want to do.

I have a form that holds min two timers, One is a 72 hour timer and one is a 12 hour timer.
What I am trying to do is have both run at the same time, when the 12 hour timer expires it'll bring up a form informing the user that in 60 hours the machine will reboot (or they can just hit reboot). When the 72 hour timer expires it reboots the machine.
BUT I know my managment is going to want to be flexable. e.g instead of 72 hours make is 54, and instead of 12 make it 6.
I wish to avoid using global variables
This is the code for the 12 hour one, How do I call it and set i12sec and i12min?
************************************************
Private Sub t12hTimer_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs, i12sec As Integer, i12min As Integer) Handles t12hTimer.Tick
t12hTimer.Interval = 1000 '1000 Miliseconds = 1 second

I created a program a while back, in the traditional VB.NET way by drawing a bunch of forms. I have started playing around with creating the forms at runtime using classes. I have a placeholder form called frmStartup which merely calls the CreateLogin() sub from the CreateFormClass. The CreateLogin() sub creates a new blank form, then calls the grpbxLogin(), btnSave() and btnExit() subs from the FormElementClass which adds all the buttons and textboxes to the form. Within the FormElementClass, I have associated btnSave and btnExit with event handlers. These even handlers call subs from the DataProcessingClass. The event handler for Exit works just fine.I am having a problem with the Save event handler. Precisely, I don't know how to pass either the username or password from the Login form to the btnLogin_Click() sub in the DataProcessingForm. I have tried using Me. and frmLogin., but the program doesn't see either of those. If the Login form is an instance that is disposed of once another Sub is called, then it won't exist later on to call from. I have tried declaring variables and passing those along to btnLogin_Click, but no matter where I put it, the program doesn't see txtbxUsername.Text or txtbxPassword.Text. Not even from within FormElementsClass, which is were the boxes are created.Any ideas on how to pass variables in this case? I am not even sure what you would call this such as passing between classes, or passing between instances.[code]

I have an application that I'm building which pulls dates from a database. The start value is stored as payPeriodStart date and I add 7 days to get the end date. What I need to know is, is it possible to store those values and pass them to a Stored Procedure? Currently my stored procedures have "static" dates in them i.e.:
where dateadd (n, Timestamp, '12/31/1899') - ([LoggedIn]/1000)/60/1440+1 Between '10/3/2010' and '10/10/2010'
Here is my code for the form that will be passing the variables payPeriodStartDate and payPeriodEndDate to the stored procedure:
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles startpayrollButton.Click
Dim ssql As String = "select MAX(payrolldate) AS [payrolldate], " & _
"dateadd(dd, ((datediff(dd, '17530107', MAX(payrolldate))/7)*7)+7, '17530107') AS [Sunday]" & _
"from dbo.payroll" & _
[Code] .....
And lastly since I'm calling those variables payPeriodStartDate and payPeriodEndDate, I assume that my sql query will have to change as follows:
where dateadd (n, Timestamp, '12/31/1899') - ([LoggedIn]/1000)/60/1440+1 Between payPeriodStartDate and payPeriodEndDate
Is that correct?

I have a form that has a button, when clicked it pops up a Dialog Form. Within this dialog form the user needs to select some data and when the user is finished they click the OK button. Once they click the OK button it needs to return an integer back to the previous form.I created a Dialog Form and tried calling it via the code below:
Dim intResult as Integer = frmData.ShowDialog()
Debug.Writeline(intResult)
However, it seems I can only return DialogResults (Abort, Cancel, Ignore...)I was wondering how I can try this without having to create a public variable and storing the result there.

I am building an application that has several forms to it and on my first form, I declare 2 variables that I will need to pass to at least 2 of the other forms. I call them
Public payPeriodStartDate, payPeriodEndDate As Date
on form2, I am needing to pass those variables to a datagridview to present to users. I have the following query that I'm trying to run from that form but I'm given an error that SQL is unable to parse the query:
Code:
SELECT Employeenumber, Exceptiondate, Starttime, Endtime, Duration, Code, Approvedby
FROM Exceptions
where [Exceptions].exceptiondate between '" & payperiodStartDate & "' and '" & payPeriodEndDate"
The datagrid is bound to the form and I'm using SQL 2000.
