I want to make a current application available in French, German and Italian. It is in English at the moment.How do I go about it. I have searched help and the amount of information is bewildering.I am using VB.NET in VS 2010 and most of the articles I have found relate to VB6 or VS2003. Most of them go to great lengths to confuse me as to what Globalization - or Localization - is all about but do not tell me how to do it. I almost lost the the will to live after reading page after page of the gobbledygook.
Could someone please point me in the right direction to find a simpleton's guide to Globalization - or Localization - whichever it is i need.There are lots of message strings that need to be available in each language as well as the menu bars etc.I do not mind rewriting the entire application if needed but I do not know where to start to Gobalize - Localize - it.
The following code successfully changes the message in a MessageBox based on CultureID thread. But how would I change the buttons Yes, No Cancel utilizing the FileResourceManager with the key value system being used as per Chinese and Spanish look ups below? [code]...
I cannot figure out why HeaderText or validation controls always fallback to default culture - even though rest of the controls are in correct culture.
I have a GridView with HeaderText specified in this way>
Im struggling with gettings the values from the right strings.txt in my resource files in my in folder when switching languages.
[default.aspx.vb] Partial Class _Default Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Shared rm As ResourceManager = HttpContext.Current.Application("RM")
[code]....
Now, all files seem to be created correctly.However, when I go to the [URL], the values in binstrings.txt are used and NOT (like I would expect and desire), the values from binenstrings.en.txt?
I have an ASP.NET application with a SQL Server back end. I am storing all my dates in UTC format and doing the appropriate conversions to the local time zone of the browser viewing it. One of the pages asks for a start date and end date (no times).
I am taking the start date and setting the time to 00:00:00 hours (midnight) and I'm taking the End time and adding a time of 23:59:59, so that the date range covers the whole day. Now what I'm trying to do is do a SQL query to do a search for records in this date range. The problem is, the data in SQL is in UTC time and the user is typing their dates and times in their local date and times. My quickest solution was to convert the date and time to UTC, then search the records. However, by doing this, I am to believe ASP.NET converts the given time and date to UTC based on the server time zone. How can I convert a date and time to UTC time based on the time zone of the user?
The idea with this form is to add the futures which is calculated when the button is pushed but I need the list to update every time and show the values each time to which the previous value is added to the new calculation, e.g. of what it should look like in listbox:
Year 1: $1,290.93 Year 2: $2,724.32 Year 3: $4,350.76 etc....
I have been working on this a while and I am at a standstill, I was given a function to clear the form everytime it calculates but I don't know how to implement it, I am new to VB. Here is what I have so far:
Public Class frmFutureValue Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
Basically i'm trying making a task manager program for myself. I want to know how I can display a message box and or play a sound when system time = time displayed in listview. I have used a dropdown box for the user to select which option they would like to select - sound or message box to popup. The data for the task will be stored in a listview box. I want it so that when the date and the time is = to the date and time set for the reminder the action will follow.Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim notext As String = "" If TextBox1.Text = notext Then[code]....
1st label is "Clock" this pulls the time from the users current time zone/local time
2nd label is "UTCClock" Which would be UTC time
Now I have this for the first label: clock.Text = Format(TimeOfDay, "hh:mm:ss tt")
Which would give the users current time zone/local time. As for the UTC.. how would I add in for the UTC time from where the user is located at? I did some searches.. but couldnt find what I was looking for.. IM pretty sure its not as easy as getting the users current time zone/local time.. So im assuming that Theres a "bit more" code into getting UTC time..
to trace the days of a program installed in user's computer.However, the user can changes the system time of his computer to a advancing date. How can I get a SNTP time from internet to solve this problem?
I need a start date, a Total time passed until now, an average time per step, and a estimated time to finished. How can I do that? Also, I can close the application and when start up again I want to get the time counters as the last time, so How can I store that data is normal txt file (I say txt to take advantage of the ini app file which is a txt).
I used .NET Framework 1.1 in C/S project before. Now I have updated the project to use .NET Framework 3.5 without modifying source code, but I have found that : the Remoted DateTime values can not be converted to the equivalent local time of a remote computer that is in a different time zone. In .NET Framework 1.1, the DateTime values can be converted automatically.
There is a varchar column in the database table in this format of military time 1230 or 1750 or 1320 and that field get populated into a gridview in asp. I need to convert that string to standard time. I have tried the DateFormatString and nothing seems to work.
using VS2008, targetting framework 3.5I have a rather complex UserConrol which does some of its own rendering.I display this UserControl on a form.Opening that form in the Designer creates an instance of the UserControl in the Designer, which tells me a NullReferenceException is occurring in one of my rendering methods.I have attempted to correct this by making alterations to the UserControl's default constructor, but have not found success.
Just getting started in VB.NET. I would like to add X-number of text boxes at run time. And then be able to address them by their index or some sequential numerical value (like an array)
This is what I have so far:
CODE:
When I turn this into a loop to create multiple toolboxes, how do I assign a name to the controls, or will all of them be named "MyTextBox" ? I'll increment their position so thats no problem.
When I run my app at first its keeps time accurately for the first minute or so there after it starts loosing seconds, and by the end of the day its minutes behind.I've created a class called ServerTimeTimer that has a timers.timer object that elapses every second and adds a second to a dateTime variable, and a property to retrieve the date time.[code]
I have a program that reads a file with Pacific Daylight Time, I want users to see the time and date in their local environment.
At present I have in Australia a time difference of 18 hours, so I have a list box with -24 to +24 and currently set at 18, my code is elementary as long as I have moved past day one of the month it suits me personally, but I want to distribute my app, so I need something better.
I want to verify if the current system time falls within the specified time range between 7:30pm - 9:00pm. If it falls within the specified time range then display a message.
The Now() function in VB.NET returns date and time which is different from the system time that I see on the right-bottom on the notification bar. It is 15 hours slower than the system time. Has anyone ever met this problem? I'm using .NET 2.0.
I am working on a windows application project on NIST time synchronization, but can't get a proper solution for it. If anyone can send me the code to synchronize time from the global time server in VB.net or C # code
I am trying to create what I am sure is a simple program to add hours to convert UTC time. I want to type in a UTC time and have it convert for every state in Australia. [Code] Now that works fine however when the conversion goes past "midnight" it then shows the date and time. I have tried about 50 different things but cannot get it to remove the date when the converted time passes midnight. [Code] The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is an unknown word starting at index 18.
