I need to parse a string with time info from one timezone and output as another string with the time info for another timezone.
ex. "19880311 23:44:35 Moscow" > "yyyyMMdd HH:mm:ss NewYork"
it must observe DST, parse the input with format string and allow output to be formatted with a formatting string the city names are not important and can be replaced with f.ex. timezone codes
I need to write some code to tell the user when daylight savings starts and ends in another timezone, this is what I came up with but it keeps selecting the last Else line. The other lines are working fine, the problem is only with the lines, daylight savings today and not tomorrow. There is probably a much neater way of doing this but I thought this would work.
Private Sub Auto_Time_Change()
Dim sydneyTime As TimeZoneInfo = (TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("AUS Eastern Standard Time"))
If TSSlblTimeZone.Text = "Normal Time" Then
If CurDate.AddDays(1).Day = "1" Then

I have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?

I am making a change to an existing process. Currently the csv file (which can have embedded "," with the field in quotes), is being passed to my module as a IO.StreamReader, pStreamReader.
[Code]...
I have a field that I display via: String.Format({0:c},amount) This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception: amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency) I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?

dim vLine as string = pStreamReader.ReadLine
dim vFields () as String = vLine.Split(","c)
Well ... obviously the split does not work with embedded commas in a field. Looked at TextFieldParser, but it is in the FileIO class and the module is passed a IO.StreamReader. Can it work?
Or how abour a RegEx? Does anyone have any suggestions? I have look around on the internet and it seems like a common questions with a bunch of wild goose chases.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to read the pc system information so that I can retrieve the time and date format.
My code below:
Dim Info As System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo
Info = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DateTimeFormat
Debug.WriteLine(Info.LongDatePattern)
Retruns in debug: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy"
So I have 2 questions;
1) Why is there, a dd after the MMMM.
2) My company has small franchise branch offices round the world - France, USA, etc. What I am trying to do is get the date format so I can decide what country I am in - then when I print out the date on my order labels I can change the date format to suit Americans or Europeans etc.

I would like to parse a string to extract embedded parameters. [code]...
I split on the colon, then check each entry for the string "image", when found, I then extract the next entry.
I would like to use the ParseQueryString()method which works fine with equal signs and no spaces. Does anyone know if this method can work with other delimiters and spaces?
I am writing a VB.NET application which needs to extract data from an XML document. The Dataset.ReadXML function would be suitable, if the XML document was held in a disk file. However I would prefer the XML document to be passed via a string property of my class object, not as a disk file.
Is there a way to make the ReadXML function take its input from a string instead of a file ? If not, are there other functions which can be made to parse XML which is held as a string.?
