lets say i have a string that holds "Monday" and another string that holds "9:45:00 PM". would it be possible to look at the Date.Now() function and see when the next Monday is, and then convert those two strings into a date? lets say the next monday was 05/20/2011. I would want the date variable to hold "05/20/2011 9:45:00 PM". any ideas guys?

View 7 RepliesI want to save an excel file with the following prefix: Order-Monday for Mondays, Order-Tuesday for Tuesdays etc and then this file will be overwritten the next week. For the following bit of vb
lstrDateStamp = Now().DayOfWeek
xlWorkSheet.SaveAs(gstrFilePathS14 & gstrFileNameS14 & "-" & lstrDateStamp & gstrFileTypeS14)
the Now().DayOfWeek returns '5' apart from doing a case expression to decipher 1-7 as days of the week is there any other way I can get lstrDateStamp = DAY (i.e. Friday)
I am writing a personal accountant software using VB2010. What I'm looking for now is to get the week date range of a specific date (Monday to Sunday). For example, if the given date is 16/03/2012, I want to get back:12/03/2012 -> 18/03/2012
View 5 Replieshow can I determine the actual date?
Of course I know the Now() function, but what, if the user sets the date on the computer f.e. 2 days back? I have tested it, I get the date from 2 days earlier.
Is there another way to determine the REAL actual date?

Given a week number, I need to get the date of the Monday of that week.For example, I have several strings that are stored in a file, such as

The Monday on Week 28 of the year is 12 July 2010
The Monday on Week 30 of the year is 26 July 2010
Its these dates that I need.

I'm updating an old VB net application and trying to refactor some of the logic as I go. The app looks for data from a single date across a few tables and writes that view to a file.
Writing the query in SQL I'd get the equivalent of
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE CAST(FLOOR(CAST(table.date AS float))AS datetime) = '15-Jul-2010'
Ideally I'd use
SELECT * FROM table WHERE date=@input
and add a date object as a parameter to a System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand instance
Are those two comparable? Will I get the results I expect?

View 2 RepliesI need to find a way to find the date (DD/MM/YYYY) of the Monday for any week we're on.
For example, for this week, monday would be 09/11/2009, and if this were next week it'd be 16/11/2009.
I managed to get somewhere in the forms of code, but all I got was 'cannot convert to Integer' errors. I was using Date.Today and AddDays().
I need to find the date of Monday this week programmatically.For example, for this week Monday was on the 9th, so the date I need is: 09/11/2009.And when we roll over to next week it needs to calculate: 16/11/2009..I have tried doing this myself but I can't see how to do the arithmetic.

The only thing in my book only talks about how to pull the number of days from your bday or pull the full birthday as like the 04/06/1992 would return Monday, April 06, 1992.
I would like to integrate a day or week view to a time recording application. This would enable users to add preset activities to their calendar and edit those actiivities to reflect the time they've spent on them.A perfect example would be the excellent work from April16 here . Unfortunately, my company will not pay the price April16 is asking for this component. No need to post comments on that...The time recording application already exists but was recording activities in a different manner, which enabled me to use DataGridView with activities and percentage of time spent on them. I would like to make it more user-firendly.
View 1 RepliesI am developing an application which will keep track of various information about medical practitioners that are affiliated with my place of work. One thing that we are tracking, is their availability by time of day (morning, afternoon, and evening) for each day of the week (monday - sunday). Additionally we will store an optional comment about the practitioners availability, something like "Does not work during full moon."
The input/display form for this information will be table with days of the week as column headers, and times of the day as row headers. Check boxes will indicate whether the practitioner is available during the specified time.
I am having a hard time figuring out how to store this information in the database. The most obvious solution to create a table with 24 columns (21 for 7 days * 3 times, 1 as the primary key, and 1 for the foreign key referring to the practitioner, and 1 for the comment). Which is a crappy table, but at least it's easy to select and update.[code]....

I have an ASP.NET application with a SQL Server back end. I am storing all my dates in UTC format and doing the appropriate conversions to the local time zone of the browser viewing it. One of the pages asks for a start date and end date (no times).
I am taking the start date and setting the time to 00:00:00 hours (midnight) and I'm taking the End time and adding a time of 23:59:59, so that the date range covers the whole day. Now what I'm trying to do is do a SQL query to do a search for records in this date range. The problem is, the data in SQL is in UTC time and the user is typing their dates and times in their local date and times. My quickest solution was to convert the date and time to UTC, then search the records. However, by doing this, I am to believe ASP.NET converts the given time and date to UTC based on the server time zone. How can I convert a date and time to UTC time based on the time zone of the user?
