Is there a limit to the maximum amount a List(Of T) can hold? I need to know because I have a program that could potentially wind up in a really large loop that would add over 200 or so items to a list at one time.
MSDN search didn't really tell me much, but I'm in a rush at the moment, and was just wondering.
1) Is it possible to set the maximum number of characters that a string can hold?
Just like the following example from VB6:
Dim my_var As String * 10
2) I noticed that Option Base 1 does not exist. I created a table my_table(2) and tried to msgbox the following[code]...

I have a program that is running with a Data Connection to Database MS Access Office 2007. I maxed the Database at 1.97 GBytes of memory.

I was wondering if there was any better way or faster list container or something like this in the .net framework?
I am a first year coding student and we are starting out with Visual Basic. Up until now I have been able to figure everything out, but I have run hard into a wall and I don't feel like I've been taught how to get over it. Here's the thing.
First Form
Contains a list box for products selected, and four text boxes for Subtotal, Tax, Shipping and Total.
Second & Third Forms
Each contain a list box of books to select from which will be added to the first form.[code]....
I feel like I am doing it wrong right out of the gate - as you can see I am going by the item that the user chooses, and adding a constant value that I have pre-defined in a module. Then I add the name of the book to the first form - but here's the issue.That text string doesn't hold a value.SO, when I use the remove button on the first form - the text string removes but the subtotal, tax, shipping and total boxes do not change in the least bit because the item that I removed doesn't retain any value.
Assuming a base type of "Message"...
[Code]...
I would like to have one collection of Message objects which can be either PhoneMessages or MailMessages, so that I can iterate through the list and deal with each message based on what type it happens to be.
Attempting just to use .Add() fails, saying that I can't add an item of type PhoneMessage to a List(Of Message). Is there some elegant way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? I had thought I could accomplish this with generics, but I think there's a gap in my understanding. If it can be accomplished in .NET 2.0, that would be ideal.
I feel there must be a single line, more elegant way to find the highest page number in my list of report pages. The code below works fine but seems verbose. Is there a better way?
Dim numofpages As Integer = 0
For Each reportrow In reportlist
If reportrow.reportpage > numofpages Then numofpages = reportrow.reportpage

I'm trying to figure out a good way of implementing a List(Of) that holds a maximum number of records.
I have a List(Of Int32) - it's being populated every 2 seconds with a new Int32 item.
I want to store only the most current 2000 items.How can I make the list hold a maximum of 2000 items, then when the 2001'th item is attempted to be added, the List drops the 2000'th item (resulting in the current total being 1999).
Thing is, I need to make sure I'm dropping only the oldest item and adding a new item into the List.
How can I create a list (of my custom structure) to hold only unique items? This list should be created from another list.[code]...

I am trying to change the background randomly from a selected list after a certain amount of time. I have the array set-up and I have it picking a random path (ex c:images est.jpg). I found in the registry the background image settings. I tried setting the registry key to the path but it seems like there is more to it than that because it doesn't change it. I also saw where it stored the file and tried changing it but again it doesn't change it. The funny thing is if I go to display properties afterwards it shows the correct image just doesnt set it. If I then click a different image and go back to it then it sets it. How can I make it update the background?

im trying to make a simple program that calculates the time it takes to cover x amount off nautical miles at x amount off knots, the code i have so far is this :

End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged

im trying to make a fast food program on which the user will input the amount that he has, then he will check on what he wants, by using check boxes. There are 7 different check boxes with 7 different amounts of money. I have the program somewhat finished (thanks for the people that helped me before) but theres still a couple of things that I still need to get finished but I dont know how to.I need to be able to get how much money the user has (this will be entered threw a text box, I think I accidentally messed this part up, because I cant get it to work right, (theres alreasy a permit amount of money in there and it needs to be what the user enters instead of the permit, 5.59, one) and this will be the maximum amount he can spend, then the user will check on the food he wants (and the program will add the sales tax also) then it will produce an answer saying if you have enough money or if you dont. But what im confused on is how do I get the users amount of money and make it the maximum mount he can spend and make sure it doesnt go over the amount that he has checked.[code]
