View 12 RepliesI am getting a really bizarre error and it makes no sense at all.Basically I have a user entity which has a Password property. This property is of Type Binary, the server data type being Binary(512).I am reading this value in and converting it to a byte array. However whenever I run my code I am getting a completely unrelated error of Unable to cast object of type 'System.Guid' to type 'System.String'.This strikes me as very odd since I am not using a property or variable of type string or GUID anywhere in this procedure where it falls over.
The code is below:

I'm looking for some help (a shortcut to be more accurate) with type conversions in VB.NET 2005.I made a little program that stores rich text, with multiple pages (tabs0¦ like a notebook.I use 3 different printers throughout my day and the default printer has a page size of 3 x 15¦ it's a Zebra.It must remain the default printer.My little program has Page Setup,Print Preview¯ and Print¯ controls.It works fine as-is, but I am revisiting the project with the hopes of being able to store the selected printer and page setup for each page (tab) within the notebook¯.Currently, I am grabbing the information from the PageSetup Dialog1 Object and converting it to a String:[code]This is great for storing the PageSetup information for each tab, but putting it to use later is a problem!How do you take these Strings and then SET them back to the Object without parsing up each String?

I am attempting to deep clone many of my objects via serialization. Most of it works fine, except when the original object has event handlers for their events. Then the holders of the event handlers are being cloned as well. Anyways, from web browsing it appears the right way is avoid cloning the events. However, you cannot put <NonSerialized> in front of an event declaration, but the C guys seem to get around this by writing [field: NonSerialize] (I guess directing the program to the underlying field, over my head). What is the VB .Net code equivalent to this, as I can't find it?
