I have a question that I hope someone here can answer.I was attempting to assign a string to a string variable and I accidently put a + in front of the string.
Dim s as String = +�Hello World I got the following compile error: "Conversion from string "" to type 'Double' is not valid."
My question is why did the + cast the string to a double.

I've been just making random programs trying to get the hang of the new language this time I was making a leap frog game where it switches back and forth beetween frogs every time a button is pressed.

View 2 RepliesIf Double.Parse(list_numbers.Item(i), possibledouble)
list_numbers is a list of strings
list_numbers.Item(i) = "0.000"
possibledouble is a double
debugger returns "input string was not in a correct format"
i thought that the double parse would convert the string into a double format of "0.0" but it gives me an error.

I was trying to convert from Double to String and everything working fine. But when I tried some bigger number with fractions in it. I got the number but rounded. I tried something like that:
Dim dd As Double = 1235212435.3453636
Dim str As String = dd
MsgBox(str)
But what I got is 1235212435.34536 instead of 1235212435.3453636

I have a problem that seems trivial. In an argument to an activity I need to supply a path.
This is done by this code:
String.Format("a
-bd -y -tzip {0} {1}* -r",
Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory,
"output.zip"),
BinariesDirectory)
However, the directories parameters contain spaces so they have to have quotes around them. I tried with single quote ' that works fine to put in the string, but the command shell executing the command ignores these. So it has to be double quote "
I have tried all methods I have fount on the Internet, for example to have a backslash before the double quote and to have three double quotes, but nothing seems to work. I get a compiler error as below.
Error 4 Compiler error(s) encountered processing expression "String.Format("a -bd -y -tzip "{0}" '{1}*' -r", Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory, "output.zip"), BinariesDirectory)".Comma, ')', or a valid expression continuation expected.
I created an application in vb.net 2005.It works fine on my machine. I tested several different test machines and all were working fine. As for the client, it's generating an error. My application reads from an excel sheet and imports the values to an oracle database. the error being generated is: "conversion from type string to type double is not valid". Why is it generating on on the client's computer and not mine?

This is wrong because I'm not escaping it properly:
s = s.Replace(""","");
This is wrong because there is not blank character character (to my knowledge):
s = s.Replace('"', '');
What is syntax / escape character combination for replacing double quotes with an empty string?

I get the error: 'Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array.'I seem to get this error alot in my programming but don't exactly know what causes it. Even if I can fix this error I heard that Join only works for string arrays so this wouldn't work anyway.

I do not necessarily wish to define the split to interpret double space as separator as I do not know whether this is always the case. I would rather like to tell the program that there are three double format numbers -> go and parse.
