View 5 Replieshow to convert a string that is entered in a column to proper or title case. For example, user enters "now is the time".

Not sure if this is just a bad habit, or a valid way of doing things, but for large complex report queries spanning bunches of tables, I often get my aggregate stats by summing a Case statement.For example:
SELECT Contact.Name,
SUM(CASE WHEN Order.Type = 'Special' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS SpecialOrders,
SUM(CASE WHEN Order.Type = 'Magic' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) AS MagicOrders,

I have a datareader reading Date feild from the CSV file as string. it retreives the first record as "03/06/2009" successfully.

View 11 RepliesI have a text document that is a roster of licensees. I am looping through this document to create a html table of this data. I've come across names with non standard characters.
This is one of them
Aimeé
I tried running all the inputs through the following function, but when it comes across the above character it doesn't replace it.
Function ReplaceBadCharacters(ByVal input As String) As String
Return input.Replace(Chr(233), "é")
End Function
How can I replace each character with the html equivalent?
EDIT
When I debug the above function it shows the input as Aime[] and not Aimeé.
In Chrome it looks like this Aime�

How do I achieve the same in VB.NET which is so easily done in SQL Server.
Select Case(GetDate() as VarBinary(8)) --Gives the Current Time in Hex
How can I create the same string in VB.NET so that I can compare in SQL Server as such -
Select Case When GetDate()=Cast(0X00009F5E00D8DF7C As DateTime) Then 'True' Else 'False' End -- 0X00009F5E00D8DF7C Will be the value I get in VB.NET When I convert it Date.Now() To Hex
I have a C# example that is populating a multiselect combobox. This was from an example found online. It works fine with the static values coming from the observable collection. I want to change this to be database driven from a SQL Server backend, but was having issues. I did get it to populate the combobox, but the selection is acting kind of screwy. Some type of simple query from a Northwind table would suffice such as: "Select CategoryName from Categories".

So I'm building an application that is going to do a ton of code generation with both C# and VB output (depending on project settings). I've got a CodeTemplateEngine, with two derived classes VBTemplateEngine and CSharpTemplateEngine. This question regards creating the property signatures based on columns in a database table. Using the IDataReader's GetSchemaTable method I gather the CLR type of the column, such as "System.Int32", and whether it IsNullable. However, I'd like to keep the code simple, and instead of having a property that looks like:

I have a nullable database field of type varchar. I am writing a unit test for a service method that retrieves the value of this field. The service method uses a custom DAL that returns a value of String.Empty if the database field is Null (this is desired behaviour).

My question is: If I give blank spaces before name after name and between name and surname/title, then I want to remove all blank spaces except one blank space between name and surname/title.

Output > I want "Sandeep Premchandani" (Single space between Sandeep and Premchandani)
for Types, we could call toString and convert that into a String, but i would like to do the reverse i.e getting a Type object from its string.

View 3 RepliesI have all-one-case strings representing postal addresses stored in a database, but I want to capitalize US state abbreviations (e.g. " ca " to " CA ") when the abbreviation is separated from the rest of the string by a space on either side.The lousy way I could do it would be to have 50 statements like
If addressString.Contains(" al ") Then addressString.Replace(" al ", " AL ")
If addressString.Contains(" ak ") Then addressString.Replace(" ak ", " AK ")

Edit: That is a really lousy way! Here's what I did instead:
addressString = StrConv(addressString, VbStrConv.ProperCase)
