Creating A Search Control Where Searches Can Be Compounded?
Aug 25, 2009
I'm creating a search control where searches can be compounded. So, for instance, I could create a search for Orders where OrderID = 1232 or OrderID = 2343 and OrderID <> 23435
So I have a button that users can click to compound. Obviously its a complicated problem to do well, but in any case, on my path to trying to find the best way to do it, I wanted to create a variable that could be either '=' or '<>' depending on the value of some other variable set elsewhere.Is there a way to do that? Or do I have to switch to Expressions?

I need some guidance on the best way to proceed with searching a file content. I have a large file (see attachment) that is in text form, some of these files could be upto 50 times as big, therefore creating a huge file. These files contain information that is produced from another application and therefore I am unable to change the format of the file.

I am creating a class that searches a binary file for a specific customer number. I am using a binary search that keeps on slicing the file in half until I find the customer number while is sorted. Once it finds it I am positioning it at the first instance of that Customer number as there can be multiple records with the same Cus Number.
Now here is my question. I now need to loop through this Customers records and do some data base searches. Since I want to make my class as generic as possible what should I pass back to the calling class? An Array with all their records. If I do this I have to loop twice, once in the class and once when it passes the array bac to the original calling class?

I'm creating a search function to search through a binary file and find a record based on the users input. Surprisingly, that isn't the problem! The problem I'm having is that as part of this I'm using a procedure to display results in text boxes, and I'm getting the error "Too many arguments to private sub display customer"I've encountered this error before, but never really knew what it was... Here is my code.
Private Sub btnSearch_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearch.Click
FilenameCust = "F:\College\CustomersFile.bin"

Lets say a search engine is doing a search by date range. If we want to further expand the search by decreasing the date range by looping with date range one month close to end date how would you change the parameters?
For example if these are the date parameters:
start date = 05 / 07/ 2009
end date = 05 / 07/ 2010
050709 - 050710
Thats my set range; so now I want to change the range by month like this
050809 - 050710
050909 - 050710
051009 - 050710
051109 - 050710
051209 - 050710
050110 - 050710
etc
How can I use a loop to set this up? the year has to change accordingly when month hits 12.

I have been trying to figure out how to get my code to work. (It was a homework assignment which has already been turned in but I am determined to get this code to work.)I have a text box titled txtSearch and btnClick.I need to search a list box for a city name and then have it displayed in a message box. If there is not a match then I need to display an alternative message box stating there is no match. City is in the list box starting at 16.The text needs to be case insensitive.I am only getting the message "That is not a valid city." for any entry that I type into my txtSearch even though I know it should be a match.
Here is what I have for code
Private Sub btnFind_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFind.Click
' Declare variables to find text on txtSearch when button clicked
Dim length As Integer = txtSearch.TextLength
Dim value As String = txtSearch.Text.ToUpper

I am using VB 2008 and doing the project on office 2007. I've created a Ribbon (Visual Designer) and put a button. Now thats all I've done. I'm still researching on how to make it so that when I press the button , a box will appear and at the side of the box will be something like" Search, Stop, Select, Cancel" buttons the box will be a container where when search is pressed, the wireless/LAN connections will be displayed.

I created 2 forms in Access 2003 (Form1 & Form2) for the purpose of creating a 'smartform' of sorts for my company. In essence they can click on a search feature in the top cell and input an employee ID # which automatically fills in about 10 to 15 fields.
- There is only 1 table attached to the forms.
- The group I created this for is uncomfortable using Access.
What I would like to do with VB.net:
- I thought I would create an internal webpage using VB.net so they wouldn't need to log into Access [the DB would be stored on a separate server.]
- I would need a clean & simple interface that has 2 buttons, one for each form.
-When the form is called up I would need a search feature "EMPLID _________" which would connect to the Access DB table and retrieve the correct information.
-Id also need to have the form printable & have the ability to search again or return to the front page.

Dim pieces(500) As PictureBox
pieces(1) = New PictureBox
With pieces(1)
[Code].....
The program does not crash or anything, but the picturebox is no where to be seen on the form. How to I make this work correctly?
And is 'Control Array' the correct term for this? or something else?

EDIT: Note. I should have mentioned I'm not interested in using the .Select, DataRowView, RowFind, I wrote a function to search a datatable for terms in an array. I then return the datatable as a dataset so it can be bound to a DataGridView. Does anyone have any optimization ideas? Since this is a real-time search (every term typed instantly searches) I'd like to make the function as fast as possible. The speed is actually pretty good already but I figured I'd be worth asking you all if there was anything else I could change about it.

ive been reading this forums and it already helped me a lot with my application, im new to visual studio and im currently developing an aplication for my school project in vs 2008.Im using a simple access database with only 2 tables and I creadted a form with a datagrid to show all data inside the tables, and now i want to create search buttons for each field of the table . like, "seach by Name", Seach by date" etc... i tried to use the simple code
Code:
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim cod As String
cod = InputBox("Type the Id to search: ", "Search By ID")
If cod <> " " Then
[code].....
My biggest problem now is that this code works very well to search by id (which is my table primary key), but now i want to search by other fields and this code only allows to search by primary key! Is there any way to use something similar to this code to search by other fields?

I am very new to VB.net and for a project I am supposed to do some "outside research" and create a database. The database should consist of items (sports players) who have a number of different values (one set is physical: strength, speed, agility, acceleration) and preferably another (technical ability: ball skill, dribbling, shooting, etc). I want the database to classify these and give each traits such as "Power Shooter" if the shooting stat is upwards of 90, etc. I want to be able to bring up characters through this and also through named searches.

I'm new to VB and my book doesn't explain sequential searches very well. I need help with the application I'm creating for school. My application has to allow the user to enter a number and then it will verify if the number is valid by searching through the list of arrays I provided.The question:Create an application that allows the user to enter a charge account number. The application should determine whether the number is valid by comparing it to the numbers in the following list: (see code)The list of numbers should be stored in an array. A sequential search should be used to locate the number entered by the user. If the user enters a number that is in the array, the program should display a message indicating the number is valid. If the user enters a number that is not in the array , the program should display a message indicating the number is invalid.
