I've got a problem saving asci Values to File as Byte. I must save hex values to file, for this case i used the following line: fs.WriteByte(&H2D) This works fine, but i need to do this autmaticly. My Sourcestring is 2995030. Tried to do something like &H(Hex(str)), but this failed.

I have a DEM file(Digital Elevattion Model File) and I am trying to open the file,where we have Latitude and Longitude values inside the DEM file.And, Now I have opened the file using Filestream and Read the file using BinaryReader.But, I am having a trobule in getting the values of Latitude and Longitude.I am getting Byte values randomly as 1,202,31,271 etc.But, we dont have latitude and longitude values more than 180,and also I am not getting 16 bit UInt values.For example, the values should be like Latitude 20.00416666666667 and Longitude 39.99583333333333.So,read the correct Byte values of the DEM file.The code I have used till now is:
Dim fs As FileStream = New FileStream("C:UsersadminDesktopHeader and DEM fileE020N40.DEM", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim rd As New BinaryReader(fs)
Dim convertDB As UInt16
For i = 0 To rd.BaseStream.Length

I have A combo box with 5 values in: How would i save all 5 of those values to my file?sw.WriteLine(CustomerIDTextBox.Text + ":" + CustomerFirstNameTextBox.Text + ":" + what????? Once these values are saved how would i go about retreiving them from the file and displaying them back into the Combo box?

These files will be read from and sent to an existing server with it's own encrytion/decryption app to handle it's side of the file processing.

How do I use the supplied raw byte values instead?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to convert old code to VB in VS2005. The code I'm working on is used to store values in a string, which will then be handed to a proprietary scramble function. This function is a given in this case. I've already switched from a string to an array of bytes in my .NET code.
The old code (VBA) was using a string value to store the data, example function for Double value:
Private Function DoubleToStr(ByVal value As Double) As String
Dim Bytes(7) As Byte ' 0-7 Double is 8 bytes
Dim n As Long
CopyMemory(Bytes(0), value, 8)
DoubleToStr = ""
For n = 0 To UBound(Bytes)
DoubleToStr = DoubleToStr & Chr(Bytes(n))
Next n
End Function
The code basically copies the memory contents (using API call CopyMemory) of the memory (held by the double variable) to the memory held by a byte array. It then reads the byte array and converts it into a string. Workarounds could be to convert a bool or long to a string, though that would be expensive in terms of memory/storage eg. 1234564787 would be 10 bytes in a string where as a long is only 4 bytes (factor 2.5 increase).
How to retain the original precision? Converting it to a string would result in endless numbers. Another problem (at least I think it could be) is that in VBA the variables are rather simple, but in .NET they are all objects, so how to retrieve the actual memory location of the value? let alone garbage collection moving stuff around. How to get those variables stored in my byte array?
I am having some major problems with byte arrays. First off the bigger array I have the more values go missing, I originally wanted to make a huge array and just dump like a 100mb chunk of memory in it but when I did that every byte in the array returned 0. So I experimented a bit and found 4kb to be the biggest chunk size to reliably not return 0.. ok I figured I'll just loop the 4kb and glue them back together later but no such luck, after being combined into the main array the bigger the number gets the more values that should be there just aren't.
Here's a code sample:
Dim retval(4095) As Byte
Dim combval(RLen) As Byte
For i = 0 To RLen - 4095 Step 4096
ReadProcessMemory(ProcAccess, i, retval, 4096, 0)
retval.CopyTo(combval, i)
Next i
WriteLine(combval(321603964))
WriteLine(ReadMemory(321603964, 1)(0))
So with the last 2 lines if I pull up some smaller number like 8 digits or so it reports back no problem but anything slightly bigger like the number i have written in there right now is just 0. After some additional research I discovered that the reason why 4kb is the max size I can reliably get is coz that's the size memory chunks are made of, "page" as they call it. Why the memory reading drops off at higher addresses alltho I suspect it has something to do with the way memory is structured and I am just not hitting the startpoint of a page anymore due to an offset or something somewhere.

How would I convert the two individual byte values (in hex) to a decimal value representing the concatenated hex values? For example, if I have the
Dim byte1 As Byte = &H99
Dim byte2 As Byte = &H99
' I want the decimal representation of the hex value "9999" ' (byte1.ToString + byte2.ToString) which should be "39321" Currently I use the following code:
Dim decVal as integer
decVal = Val("&H" + Hex$(byte1).ToString + Hex$(byte2).ToString)
However, when I use this, the value (decVal) comes out to "-26215"
I need to convert hex values aa 01 00 17 f4 2f (as contained in byte array FrameData) to display in a label control as AA:01:00:17:F4:2F
HexDump(FrameData(2)) converts the aa (which has been converted to Decimal 170) into 31 37 30 !
similarly I need to convert hex data ('02 00' contained in byte array FrameData) as
0x0200."0x" & FrameData(1) + FrameData(2) displays the data as 0x20. How would I convert the '02 00' hex data to display as 0x0200?

I need to read signed and unsigned 8 bit, 16 bit and 32 bit values from a file stream which may be little-endian or big-endian (it happens to be a tiff file which carries the byte order indicator at the start).I initially started by writing my own functions to read the values and was able to do so for unsigned values. e.g.
Public Function ReadUInt32() As UInt32
Dim b(4) As Byte
input.Read(b, 0, 4)
[code]....
But then I started looking at signed values and my brain broke.As an alternative, I found the IO.BinaryReader which will let me read signed values directly but doesn't seem to have any way to indicate that the data is big-endian or little-endian.Is there a nice way of handling this? Failing that, can someone tell me how to convert multiple bytes into signed values (in both byte orders)?

I'm creating an emulator for a device to simulate wave forms. My challenge is that when I try to convert the output of the following code, I can't convert the Math.Sin's double output into byte values that lend themselves to the byte array format required by an existing graphing control as listed at bottom below. I''m not sure how to handle this when the sin function creates negative values but the byte values will need to be positive and basically 'shifted up' so that anything over 127 is negative. (0 - 255) unsigned. BitConverter.GetBytes has been suggested but THIS is the result of that attempt.

Have read most of the null value posts here, and I have managed to get things working as far as a "next record" button for my database application form (there's some awesome advice on this forum!). I have just one question, though. How do you manage saving of blank text box values from a form? I am using JET, but when I try to save an updated file that has a null value, it is not letting me. I got around it by forcing the text boxes with null values to contain " ", but obviously this is not the bext solution!

I have a form in an application that I'm building and in it I have a datagridview that when a user clicks a checkbox on a line in the datagridview and "submits" the data, then the form will insert all of the data on that line (along with the code "Holiday") into a database. Currently if I click in the checkbox on any line other than the first line and put a line break on the "Try" statement, and then fire the submit_onclick event, I'm never reaching that break point but if I click on the checkbox on the first line and submit that data, that works and it behaves at I stated above. Here is the code as it stands currently:

I have 50 checkboxes for 50 american states. The user can choose all 50 or only 1( so basically any number he wants). Based on his choice, I want to insert or update the table in sql server 2008. e.g- Color = blue and chk1=check, chk2= check and chk3 = check (chk = checkbox).
Now the user wants to ad 10 more states to this or remove these 3 and add 5 more. so u basically get the idea. the table in database looks like this -ID Color State_id
There is a table called states, so stateid shall come from there. so how do i do a loop insert or update in vb.net?
