Using the example piece "aString = Replace(TestString, "o", "i")"
I would like a count of every time it makes a change. Possible?
If not, is there a clean way to do a multiple incident replace within a single string and have it record counts?I know I can create loop throughs but they are slower and messy.
I use SqlParameters when executing database statements. I know that I can replace a single quote with two single quotes... but in the past SqlParameters took care of this for me. I have two projects.. in one, the SqlParameter does this and it handles single quotes fine, in another, it does not and I'm at a loss why (I even copied and pasted the code):

I have a string that i need to split where there are 2 or more blankspaces, but i dont want to split it on single blankspace. For example, a string might look something like this:
"Name of something "five blanks" Name of something else "three blanks" And so on"
And i need the split to be:
Name of something
Name of something else
And so on
Using VB.Net I'd like to be able to replace a range of characters in a string in a single line of code.

I found this function that replaces multiple substrings within a string on the internet but it gives an error on one of the parameters.It doesn't like this one:
ByVal ParamArray FindChars()) As String
Can you look at the code and correct the error since I don't yet know about explicitly typed parameters?

I have a *.txt file which contains instructions and data, with its own comments (preceded by ! ), blank lines, and each instruction begining on a new line, but occassionally using two lines. Each instruction consists of several feilds seperated by a TAB. Finally each instruction ends in a comma. Only a few different instructions are there (10 different ones) but there are many of each. Spanning a good 2500 lines. Comments and blank lines are obviously of no interest to me. I merely need to read the instructions and the data that follows it.
Now, I have successfully used 'System.IO.StreamReader.ReadLine' to go through it line by line, picking out lines begining with certain strings (first 3 characters of a known instruction). All good, I can 'lift' out the lines of interest and store them, for them to be split up later (seperating their fields into instruction, data, etc..) and then into an array.
The problem is, since some of the data fields in these instructions are so long, it spans two lines, before it ends with a comma. Using the above method, I end up with two array entries for a single instruction, since I have stored individual lines rather than a complete instruction. The only similar situation I can tihnk of to explain this, is to pick out sentences in text, and store each one in a string. Of course these end with a period (full stop) but span two or more lines.
I am hesitant to post an example, since its formatting is rather strange, but it is generated that way from 3rd party software, so I cannot change that for my software application.Perhaps there is no 'graceful' way of doing this, meaning I would have to find a way of 'adding' the second line of the instruction, to the string of the first line. Or perhaps reading each line character by character, literally storing every number/letter until I reach a comma.
Say I have a code with 3 methods that do some pretty intensive work. Would executing these methods on 3 seperate threads be faster then executing them one after the other on a single core cpu? And what if it's a dual core or HT?
View 8 RepliesThe file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

Problem: Your task is to take input from the user in string and give the following options to the user in a menu.
1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.

Is it possible to have a single class reside within two name-spaces and how can I do this?
To clarify: We have a class library (let say root namespace is classLib1), which has grown over time (more classes) and I want to logically group classes into different namespaces. However some of the older classes need to be grouped into these new namespaces (e.g classLib1.section1) and doing so will break legacy code in other assemblys that use this class library. So I want to be able to refer to a class using both name-spaces until we can phase the old ones out.
I can't find any information on this, which suggests there is a reason that people would not want to do this!?!
My program has two forms which get data from the same data source. After binding controls to tables and fields on both forms, I noticed each form has it's own apparently duplicate DataSet. Is it standard practice for each form to have its own DataSet even though they use the same ConnectionString and connect to the same database at the same time?
View 1 RepliesI originally developed a simple application software [VB.Net + MS Access] (Lets call this project A) but now I want to include more functionality in it. I have an encryption/ decryption software utility (Lets call this project B ) and a Text to speech generation utility(Lets call this project C) . That is, I want to add Projects B and C to project A. [Such that clicking on the main form of project A calls a form from project B or C as desired].In solution explorer, I right clicked--Add Existing Project--and added both the above mentioned projects 1 by 1. (Added B and C to the solution explorer with the already present A).As the application software's (Project A's) main form is the main form of my project, I want to have a menu option on the main form (Of Project A) so that a user could click on one of the menu options and the main form of my other projects ( Project B or Project C or Encrypt/Decrypt or Voice Generation) should open by him doing so. To this effect, I tried the following:
1. I dragged the form simply from one of the projects (From B or C ) into the folder of my Application Software (Project A).This generated a lot of Build errors and the Voice Generation utility (Prj. C) would not work like this.
2. Tried to reference a dll, however the authors of Projects B and C did not include a dll in their projects.
3. Now I came to know that to call a form residing in another project folder or even another folder within the same project, you have to give a path for the form. HOW DO WE DO THIS?
As you can understand, I cannot copy the entire code of the 3 projects here....I will try attaching my project here though..Here it is: http: rapidshare.co...MY_Prj.zip.html[Dear Administrator: The downloading option on the webpage does not allow files bigger than I mb, thts why I used an external link]As I said, in the application, Project A is TMS.NET ; Project B is EncryptFile and Project is C.I encountered a problem while adding project C [spoken word], so the project contains only projects B and A. I will try to attach project C seperately.That is, TMS contains proj A+B and Speech contains C.
I am trying to understand transformation matrices (not just their implementation in VB, but in general) and I've put about 3 full days into this so far. I believe I have the data in my matrices correct. Applying any single matrix to an array of points does a correct transformation.I am wondering if I understand how to combine multiple matrices into a single one.I understand you just have to multiply them together.I took this to mean you just have to multiply each element with its corresponding element in the second to make a third matrix?[code]
View 5 RepliesI've written an application with about 30 forms and am almost ready to publish, my biggest concern though is that i'm not sure if its a normal thing to do having all these forms and hiding, disposing and showing forms throughout the use of the application.I've toyed with the idea of converting to a MDI Child / Parent interface as well as having one form with lots of subcontainers that are hidden and then hiding / showing them as the navigational buttons are shown.Ive worked on this application for about 8 months now, but would be happy to rewrite the interface and appearance of it if i know that it is not generally an acceptable practice having forms flashing open and closed while navigating through the application.
