Format A Label To Show Numbers In A Certain Way?
Dec 8, 2011I need to format a Label to show numbers in a certain way. I had asked this before about textboxes so I looked into that first but it didn't do what I wanted.

I need to format a Label to show numbers in a certain way. I had asked this before about textboxes so I looked into that first but it didn't do what I wanted.

I'm using VB08. I've populated a listbox with numbers and I want to add all those numbers together and display the result in a Label. I've heard about using parse but I don't understand exactly how it works.
This is the code that I have that i think should work.
Dim lblTotal As Decimal
Dim sum As Double
For Each decAdded As Decimal In Me.lstRunningTotal.Items
sum += Double.Parse(decAdded)
Next
lblTotal = FormatCurrency(sum)
When I run it, nothing happens. My "For Each" statement I'm not sure if it's doing what I think it's doing. I can't believe I spent 6 hours banging my head against the wall but I finally got it figured out.
This is my revised code:
Dim sum As Decimal
For Each decAdded As Decimal In Me.lstRunningTotal.Items
sum += Decimal.Parse(decAdded)
Next
lbl_Total.Text = sum
Just some suttle changes made the difference
I'm returning a database query into a List object and using that list object to fill the X and Y axes of my chart as seen below. (_runData is a "List(of DatabaseTableName)" style Object filled with the results of my query.
Primary_Chart.Series(0).Points.DataBindXY(_runData, "DateTime", _runData, "UPPER_PRESSURE")
My Datetime field is returning as a Serial Number (i.e. 40116.76111) so I want to format the X Axis to display the field more readably. Enter my problem code.

' allow only numbers and the Backspace key

For this assigment i need to show the numbers from 1 to 10 then 10 to 1 then the even numbers from 2 to 20 then the even numbers from 20 to 2 My problem is that it works fine till it gets to the even numbers. It won't exit the 2nd loop so it gets stucked in the 10-9-8-7... It all has to be in one button.
