Currently, i start my methods/property/events with "aa" in order to make them at the top of auto complete list.
im using my method as a search method in my program and it goes like this
For Each dr As DataRow In ds.Tables("Employee").Rows
If (dr("LastName") = "GO") Then
dr(MyColumn1) = "Testing1"
[code]....
is there another way to search for a row, i think in my code it would took time because it will pass through all the rows.
Is it possble in VB.Net to accress a control or object using a built up string?[code]...
View 2 RepliesI used a built in function to create comma separated string using List easily.(It is not split and join but new function) I'm not able to recollect or find it. If some one knows about it and uses it please post a link to that. Framework - .net 2.0
(It is not Join or split - I know about this, .net has new built in function to create CSV format)
Check Jacob G Answer below for what i was looking for let me know your thoughts on it compared to join ;)
And whoever gave me -ve rep need to keep some patience and not hurry
Best way to repeat a character in C#
I wonder if there is a function that returns x times of given char or string. Or I must code it?
I create a small program witch is a tcp client.I sent a asqii string to a tcp device over ethernet thads acts like a server.As soon as the device recieves the input string it will respond back with response data. The problem is i am not getting any response data back from the divice. The lenght of the string is max. 30 characters.When a use WireShark i see the reponse, but VB read nothing.I have read many threads with explenations about server/client connections but no example of a client with a tcp listener built in.I think thad the stream read is to late after the send instruction.

works very well. So seems some consistency miss of the string constant behavior.
2) Have a look on the COMMENTS (in the attached picture). The words "custom", "string" and "error" are highlighted, however they are in the comments, so should be green, not blue.
Why this? What workaround? EDIT: Declared as "bug" in Microsoft Connect (even if is not more that a syntactic "miss")... EDIT 2: As remarked Hans Passant, standard string methods, like "cucu".Trim() does not work either.
currently I am using something like the following:[code]It seems to work fine, but I've seen posts on different blogs and stuff that say string.compare is better for some reason.Is this ok to use or should I be using string.compare()?

I have one text box that the user enters an integer into. I use a select case to determine what the length of the number is. (along w/ string.length, etc)based on how long it is, I can determine if the number is 1-9, 10-99, 100-999, etc. What I want to do next is, evaluate the number and display a roman numeral that matches.
intMyNumber.substring(1,?) ' 1 would return the leftmost number
if intMyNumber.substring(1,?) = 1 then
if intMyNumber.substring(2,?) = 1 then 'etc

View 3 RepliesI am not sure how clear my question is by the title, but I am trying to make Class methods instead of Instance methods in Visual Basic that way I don't have to waste memory and code creating temporary objects to execute methods that don't need instance variables.
I am not sure if you can do that in VB but I know you can in Objective-C by using either a "+" or "-" sign in front of the method declaration. And in C++ (at least I think, I can't remember) you put the static keyword or const keyword in front of the function.How would I do this in VB if it is possible? Or should I just make a separate set of functions that are not members of a class?

View 3 RepliesI have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?
View 6 RepliesI have a non standard text file, ie its not delimted etc, its pretty much free flowing. What I want to do is to search for a specifc string eg. "xyz123" and then replace it with what a user types into a text box, lets call the text box and its contents "txtreplace".
I am trying to replicate a find and replace function essentially, but will need to tailor it later on down the line, but this will be a starting point.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to perform an action if the index of a string contains a certain value, but it's just not working quite right and I could use a hint if anyone has done this before.The application pulls in a .txt file and manipulates it to create 3 other different type of files. It is currently set to pull the information from line 3, but the output program that supplies the file will probably change to line 2 or 3. I need to either search the whole string or the index of line 2 and 3 and then do the following manipulations. It will not return the value of line 2. This is what I have tried, but is not working. The code commented out at the bottom is what is currently there.
The .txt file shows the following values so far:

Recently I have started my computing course at college. I had little programming knowledge (as I'm more of a 'web developer') and it has come to the point of us learning some of the basics.I downloaded VB at home, and have been learning by myself when I have the chance... but I've hit a wall Basically, I have to create a program that searches for a character within a string.I managed to do this at college, but it has slipped my mind... So I could use some help The specification we have to meet is:An event (such as a button being clicked) must use a function to return something.The function must use the mid() function
From this, I've come up with:
Public Class Form1
Dim string1, searchterm As String
[code].....
The layout of my program is effectively 2 text boxes (named input1 & searchterm), a Label (named Output1) and a button (named search).ow, My problem (I think) is due to the mid().I'm not entirely sure I've used it correctly.

View 7 RepliesI know this has been answered before but I am having trouble with it still. I am trying to find if a textbox has an "x" as the first character. I am trying to use the left(string, 1) command as described in a couple other threads to just test the first character on the left but the only left function I can find relates to the left coordinates of the textbox.
