Check Date Is Valid?
Oct 10, 2011I have a txt file with a few settings that get loaded into the Program. These are put into an array. As the array holds different types (int, string, dates etc) its set to object type.
What i am trying to fingure out is how to check the date is a valid format, by returning a false value so i can have a msgbox pupup and say the date in the file is invalid. I cant use isdate() on the string from the file as even if the date format is correct its a string not a date type so i have to convert it first (which is the point it throws an error).
Check If An SQL Connection Is Still Valid?
Jun 4, 2011I have an VB.NET application. This Application is permanently resident in memory and minimized to the tray area because we use it very often. The problem comes in when we VPN into a client's site. These VPN connections trash all other network connections to and from our machines.Then every time my VB.NET application refreshes its database, errors start occurring, because the machine has lost connectivity to the SQL server, however, these are not at the connection level, but only when the reader attempts to read.
I am checking for connection.open, but because of the SQL connection pooling, I just get a previous connection that was valid before the network was cut. Is there anyway to check if an actual SQL connection is valid, prior to re-issuing a connection from the pool?[code]...
Check If The Login Is Valid?
Nov 7, 2010After I send a post request to login to a site (using httpwebrequest), how do I check if the login is valid?
One way to do it is to read the whole html using
dim reader as new streamreader(response.getresponsestream) dim str as string = reader.readtoend and then check the html for any unique string (e.g. "log out"), to tell if the login is successful.
But reading the entire html is too long, so how do I shorten the process?
I tried
Dim str as string = response.getresponseheader("Set-Cookie")
But str is a blank string.

View 8 RepliesHttpwebresponse - Use WebRequest To Check If URI Is Valid?
May 27, 2010Looking for the best way to determine if a URI exists in VB.NET without downloading the actual content. System.IO.FileExists/My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists can be used locally to determine if a file exists, is there an equivalent for the Web?
Currently I am using a HttpWebRequest to check URI existance using the ResponseStream. This populates the stream if the target does exist and throws an exception if it doesn't. The function is being expanded to also check for PDF files (typically 5MB +), images, etc and it will be a waste of time/bandwidth to actually populate the content into a stream.
In the case of "Success" (the target does exist) I do not wish to download the file or page, simply to end up with a Boolean which indicates the whether something exists at the end of this URI.

View 8 RepliesRegex / Check For Preceding And Following Character
Jun 10, 2011Sometimes when backing up an sql file using phpmyadmin (database stuff), for some reason it forgets to double up a single quote, resulting in an error when loading the sql file back into the database when required. A line in such an sql file looks like this;[code]As shown in the example, phpmyadmin did double up the quote in "you're" as it should, but it forgot to double up the one after "27", resulting in an error.As you can see it's like this (*value*, *'value'*, (and so on) but beforehand I can;
A) Never know how many values are in such a string
B) Can't simply split the values by "," because the value itself can hold a comma aswel.
It would be easy if every value was like this; *'value'* because then I could split by " ', ' " but that's not the case, and I also never know what location the values not enclosed in single quotes are. I also can't simply double up all single quotes in the entire string because then it will also double up the ones that are enclosing the values, resulting in an error during upload again.So yeah, what I need to get done is single out all the values with regex ($1, $2 etc.) and then string.replace single quotes in those values but *only* if said single quote is not preceeded or followed by another single quote, else it would become a tripple quote resulting in an error again.
Check For Valid Date Before Loading Data
Aug 1, 2009How to deal with a "date bug" that I have encountered in my program. Here is a scenario.
1. My system has a locale of en_US and therefore displays the date as MM/DD/YYYY
2. My program tries to import from a csv file in which it carries out tests on a field to check for a valid date before loading the rest of the data.
3. If the date in the file is in the format DD/MM/YYYY the test fails and therefore the data is not loaded. This is the bug.
I would like code to test for the date string in the csv file that will recognize any date format (locale).

I've tried the LIKE operator:
