How To Format By Padding Left And Right - So The Columns Can Be Neat And Aligned
Dec 17, 2009
How to format by padding left and right. I have two integers, two strings, and another integer that I need to align neatly in columns. There is a total of about 100 columns, and they have to be neatly aligned.
Here is my code:
Console.Writeline(num1.ToString().PadRight(5) + num2.ToString().PadRight(5) + str1.PadLeft(20) + str2.PadLeft(20) + num3.ToString().PadRight(5))
How do I pad it correctly so the columns can be neat and aligned.

Is there any way to push the left padding on a multi-line text box to the left to be in line with the left justified padding on a single line text box? It is frustrating as it looks off-kilter with the multi-line text indented as it is.

I've got a program which displays data in a listbox in five columns. All are separated using one or more ControlChars.Tab. I want to write these columns to a text file, however, when I do, my columns lose their alignment. I can change alignment so that it displays nicely in text file, but then it is off in list box. Is there a way to get what I see in my listbox to display the same way in a text file - maybe a different way of separating my columns (not using ControlChars.Tab)?

Ypos = TopMargin + Count * PrintFont.GetHeight(ev.Graphics)
ev.Graphics.DrawString(ROData(x, 3), PrintFont, Brushes.Black, LeftMargin, Ypos, New StringFormat())
Count = Count + CInt(ROData(x, 4))
The above line prints the data contents of the ROData array in position three. I would like to be able to assign a specific position accross the line to have the printer print the data at without left padding the array data.

Using Visual Basic,change the backcolor of the upper left header cell (.rows(-1).columns(-1)) of a DataGridView? I would like to use a different color to indicate to the user that he/she can right click a row or column header to access the Context Menu Strip. Not all of my DGVs use a CMS, so I would like to highlight its availability for the specific DGV.

For years I never had trouble with this String. Format function until today when I got a value longer than 0 characters and the function returned all the characters in the string instead of just ten. Now sometimes I get less than ten characters so I can't use the substring with out getting an error. I can try the left function but I was hoping there was a solution with the Format function.

I'm currently working on my (business) master's thesis... the topic is capital budgeting tools to manage major investments for a European energy supplier.So far the company has used MS Excel for calculating relevant data to make decisions on whether to invest money in new projects or abandon them. There usually is a host of input data, lots of basic calculations and just two or three outputs (such as Net Present Value, Return on Investment etc) .It is my task to develop a new excel template or decide on buying a completely new software license, if excel proves unable to provide the functionality the company needs.
So far I have only very limited programming knowledge, stretching to Java basics, some HTML code and SQL Databases.However, a colleague hinted at the fact that the VB.net programming language can be easily learned and used to improve excel considerably. Ideally I would need excel to be able to:
- make sure people putting data into our template don't mess with it
- be able to communicate with a database
- have an appealing, structured and neat appearance for ease of usage by people with limited IT abilities
- provide all output, including sensitivity analysis charts, in a structured, printable overview

I'm using the following calls in a vertical label control: (borrowed from another project)[code]But if any of the text characters are a V or W there are funny jagged artifacts in those letter's angled lines. Does anyone know how to fix this? I tried looking up anti-aliasing etc.. but aside from changing the smoothing mode to antialias I couldn't find anything (changing this doesn't help a bit)

I am working on a TAFE assignment right now - the project itself is done, so what I am asking is actually not part of the graded component, it is for my own benifit and learning.The issue is I have a ListBox which needs to output for varibles on each line - that part is working nicely, what I want to know is there a way to set the tabs or spacing so no matter how long the varible it - the next coloum is alway neatly aligned with it?

But, I want it to get 89.I do not want it to get 98, but 89. I tried textbox.text.substring (0, -2) but that just gives an error.So if Gold is entered it gets ld

I got a panel that i am adding labels to. I have autoscroll enabled on it so when they fill the viewable space it scrolls. but i need to put the labels to the left unviewable space(when left scroll is already at 0) The label is placed but i dont get the scroll bars and i cant force it to scroll to a - value.
Is this even possible? Same thing with UP.
Or is the Scroll only limited to Bottom and Right?

I have some questions regarding vb.net bit shifting. I understand the << >> operators are bit shift operators in vb.net. I have a two byte hex value 0x3ACC, each bit in this two byte represents either a day, month or year. The bit structure of this hex value is yyyy yyym mmmd dddd. I am confused as to how I should bit shift these values so that year, month and day are in their own UINT16 values. Just want to know about shifting numbers and if I need to add any padding to the shift?

I have a ListBox that I add items to using the standard:
ListBox1.Items.Add(whatever)
I would like to increase the space between entries, but not adding a blank line, since I do not want a blank option tha thwe user could click on. Is there anyway to do this?
I have tried:
ListBox1.Items.Add(whatever & vbCrLf), but no change.

Does anyone know if it's possible to pad a column to the left using the RowFilter property in a DataView? My data comes from a third party via XML which I've converted to a DataSet. I'm inferring the XML schema to set the column datatype. I've converted the column in question to string in order to properly compare any text entered by the user. At the time I populate the data grid I format the column by padding it with zeros on the left side so that it is always 11 characters (Ex: 123456789 becomes 00123456789). This is for legal reasons and not optional. However when using the RowFilter property the zeros in front are obviously not accounted for because they don't exist in the DataSet.
This is what I'm doing currently:

1. How to get 0 padding/inner margin in the cells? I want just the border as a colored line at the next close pixel to the control in the cell. Or if border set to none, I want the controls with no gap.
2. How do I actually add/remove rows& columns? I thought this was by setting the .ColumnCount property, but if I set it to 3, and then try to access the third column, it gives exception, so it's obviously just two columns, although it also looks like 3 on the form. ? I created it in designer with 2 columns though. But I don't understand how this hangs together..
