Randomize The Listbox Items In Just A Random Order
Mar 12, 2010
so I am working on a program with items entered into a listbox. Then when the user clicks a button it will randomize the listbox items in just a random order obviously. I have tried adding it to an array and everything but I ended up just having to start over now because I couldn't find a solution. I can save the contents and everything I know how to do that it's just randomizing the items that I am struggling with. I have searched high and low and have yet to find a conclusion to my problem.

I got the textbox and a listbox and a button, I can add names threw the textbox hit the button to add and it adds to the listbox, now I need to take the names from there and randomize them into 4 groups and make it into an array also, I just dont know how to take the names I entered and randomize them and put them into 4 different groups without repeating themselves, it is ok if three groups that have 5 and the fourth has 6. They just need to be randomized and put into 4 different groups,This is what I have, but I think its the wrong way to do this, to make the code work right atleast.[code]

How can i change the order that the items are added into the listbox? This is the original order:
[Code]....
And so on... What i want to do, in other words, is for the newest added item to be at the top of the list.

I am wondering how i would go about taking multiple items (randomly) from a listbox and displaying them in a label!Now this listbox wouldn't have to be visible, maybe i can do it without it even being a listbox?I want to have 25 labels and each one recalls a random value from the list (doesnt matter about being unique and the list will contain about 20-30 items)Im just a bit stumped on how to do it as ive done some looking into it but most people are asking for randomized numbers or unique items where as i need randomized items from a list which aren't unique!

Is there a way to randomize the location of a button? I am making a "Button Game" that is a kind of guessing game.The user clicks one of three buttons on a form, and if it is the correct button, then the next form shows, which will be level 2. I pretty much got all of the code down. Now, though, when I debug and run the program, I noticed that everytime I reopened the the game, the buttons were in the same order.So, if the user plays the game once, closes the game, the buttons are still in the same order, and the user knows how to beat it! That kind of makes the game boring to play because the user knows where everything is.Is there a way to randomize the order of the buttons?

I am trying to conduct a research experiment using a psychological measure. Basically its a bunch of words and you need to specify a value for (1-5). So, what I did was take a numericupdwn box and a label and paired them up using a panel. I did the same thing for 19 other sets. I placed each one carefully on the grid, nice and neatly, however I need to randomize the order of how they are arranged.
I spent hours trying to figure out how to set the location point for a panel. But to use variables through a random number generator, is simply too difficult!

I have previously been told that I should always use Randomize() before I use Rnd() in a vb.net application, yet it always seems to work fine without it. What does adding Randomize() do for me in this case? It doesnt appear to affect my application in the least.

I need to use the randomize function to generate a random number between 1 and 50 for lblNum1 and lblNum2, ensuring that lblNum1 is greater than lblNum2, otherwise the randomize function needs to run again for lblNum2. I need to ensure that the user has selected an option from the gbCalcType and cboGrade first, and then the randomize function should run when the user clicks the button named btnBeginGame. How do I do this? I have this so far that generates the random numbers when the btnBeginGame is clicked:

I have a combo box bound to a datasource. I need to change one combo box (of many) to order the items in descending order.I'm guessing I could order the collection in the dataset, but that will mean all my combo boxes will be reordered?

I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.

I am making a random name generator. what I got is a large list of first names in listbox1 and a large list of last names in listbox2. when I hit a button, I am randomly pulling a name from both listboxes and putting them into 2 textboxes. for some reason they arent always random. I would say out of 50 names I will get 2 or 3 sets that are identical. why??keep in mind I probably have 400 first names and 200 last names. I should never get a duplicate! here is my
'randomize first names
Dim rnd As New Random()
Dim randomnumber As Integer = rnd.Next(1, ListBox1.Items.Count)

I cant figure out the code for vb.net that would randomize the interval of a certain timer. For each a = a + 1, there would be a different interval, and for each a = 1, a = 2, a = 3 etc. there would be a different text that will be shown on a label.

If Not m_Batchs Is Nothing Then[code]...
I have this list view (which is working fine) and i want to find an efficient way of populating it in a specific order, ie by date, by identity etc.
I know i can use linq but as i understand this is inefficient. If m_batchs is a large list of objects then i will looping through this list many, many time (as linq behind the scenes loops through the object collection).

I want to rearrange a list of items in different orders for few times; ie: the 2nd in the list becomes the 1st & the previous 3rd becomes the 2nd, ... then the Last one becomes the penultimate one.In the next round, the 3rd of the original list becomes the 1st & the 4th of the original becomes the 2nd and so on. (That is, each item moves one rank above & the Top one goes to the Bottom)Given below is an example.Here, I took only 6 items & rearranged for 5 times only. (I should be able to use several Items and to rearrange for many times).The Original List:
(1) Alpha, (2) Beta, (3) Gamma, (4) Delta, (5) Epsilon, (6) Zeta
2nd List:
(1) Beta, (2) Gamma, (3) Delta, (4) Epsilon, (5) Zeta, (6) Alpha

So I want it to remove any text in the list box that has a "Job" in it and just replace it with a blank nothing.
Like if the listbox looked like this
Yardjob
jobsong
redjob
then it would change it to this
Yard
song
red
I also would like a way of removing any blank items from the listbox.
