I am creating a VB 2008 change calculator as an assignment. The program is to use the amount paid - the amount due to calculate the total.(this is working fine). After that, it is to break that amount down into dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. The problem I am having is that sometimes the quantity of pennies, nickels or dimes will be a negative number. For example $2.99 = 3 Dollars and -1 Pennies.

I've been browsing these forums the past couple days, and I've got most of my program figured out now, but I'm seeking advice as to where I should do a few calculations, and how I should pass my data between my input and my output forms. my basic program consists of a user entering 4 positive values on my main form - and then I calculate various constant percentages based upon these numbers. I then need to output these values into various labels on my output form. I have successfully implemented doing all of this on a single form, but I have over 30 outputs to display so it was a bit cluttered on a single form.
1) is it better to do all my calculations within the code of my input form and output the calculation results to the output form, or is it better to take my inputs, send those 4 values to the output form and do my calculations and output there? (i'm thinking it's the latter and is how i'm currently coding this)
2) in my second form, I cannot remember how to pass values between forms and I have not been able to find any examples that have jump started my brain into remembering. Currently I'm planning on sending my 4 inputs to the output form, doing the calculations, and outputting everything there.
for my input page:
Public Sub btnCalc_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalc.Click 'each textbox is programmed to only allow numerals 'Get input from user
[code]....
and i think this will have the form calculate everything when it loads up. I'll later add code so that after I close it - I'll have my input form reset so i can immediately run another set of calculations. (currently not programed, i need to get the basics up first)
Ive made a calculator that estimates how high a model rocket will go. I was intending on making a simulation that will show you visually how high it will go. (Little rocket image goes up and stops at estimated hight) I know how to make a picture box move and everything, but i can only make it move to a set distance.
I am building a scientific calculator. 1. After I clicked the Sine button, I get the result in a textbox.. When the result is there, for example: 1 radians Sine = 0.8414.... I can still put numbers at the end of this result.. like button 5 will be 0.84145, so how can I disable that? 2. After I get the result from a calculation, the textbox should be cleared when I insert a new number.
I'm creating a small program to read from an SQL server, loading result into an array, pivoting the array to my liking and mailing it out to selected members of a group. It's going to be run once a day with Windows schedule. I have the connection, query and mail sorted, but not the datareader to array bit.
I need to make a small programm for ticketing on a parking for a small hotel.So i have 2 Printers pariking In (for delivery of the tickets) and 2 Readers PArking Out.Both Printers and REaders are working Serial.So i need to poll the serial ports of the printers and readers every second.The data is stored on a SQL database so i need to read and write in the database.Can i do this with 1 PC and 1 programm or 1 PC and 4 programms that are runnning at the same time ?
On form 1 , i have a number of buttons that open up different websites.What i want to do is when i click a button on form 1 , i want forum 2 to show ( Form2.show() ) , Form 2 will have a list (Buttons) of internet browsers.
I am currently having a headache on how to solve this problem that i am facing. here is the situation: I have a combobox and a list box on the main form. The combobox will get the data from the ms access database. In the database, i have the details of a person's IC, Name and DOB say for eg on one entry I have D215311523C,SHAWN,13/04/1987 So now, my combobox on form load will show the list of dates in the database to allow the user to search base on the date itself by clicking on the selected date. So when the user clicks on the particular date say 13/04/1987, people in the database whose birthday is 13/04/1987 will be shown on the listbox.Meaning to say if i have 3 entries whose dates are the same 13/04/1987, 3 entries will appear. If there is only two entry, then two results will be shown. But now, when i do a single click on the date, one result will be shown. That is correct. But the problem is when i click on the same date again, three of the same results will be shown on the list box. that is it will display : 13/04/1987 13/04/1987 13/04/1987 which is not the case. Then it will show more duplicates of the same results if i click more times on the same date which should not be the case.

I am using a datagrid in my where i am having four columns. In first column the parameter values are entered and in the second column measured value is entered and in third column the nominal value is entered.Inthe fourth column the result is displayed by subtracting the measured value and nominal values. I am doing this calculation in Datagrid cell validated event. What i want is,there will be many rows in the grid,when typing the value in the third column the corresponding result will be displayedin the rowof theresult column,save button will be displayed while the form loads,when the calculate part is completed that is there should not any cell of the resut column empty then i should enable the save butto.
I am encountering the following issue So i have a device that sends stuff at the serial port, i then parse it and put it into an array of bytes like that:
Dim HCI_Command_Rcvd_Byte() As Byte All good till here What i wanna do is make an array and put this result every time the serial port gives me a new result, for example:
[Code]...
Basically what i wanna do is let the port parse the messages, fill in the array with the result at an empty spot in this array and then i will have a separate thread that will look in into this array in each non empty space and after it looks into the non empty space it will use or discard the info and also mark this space as empty (after it checked)
I just read about DataSet in VB.NET, it uses disconnected concept. My question is: if my apps has "List All" button that query data from 1 table in the database, and that table has "very very very" many rows, so my DataSet will be filled with those data and eat up memory. Can I limit the data that being put to the DataSet from that query? But I want to be able to retrieve the next data from the same query if the user want to see it?
For example: I have 1000 rows in my database, and i query all of them. But I just want 200 rows being inserted to my DataSet, but if the user want to see rows number 201 and so on, I want to be able to retrieve the next 200 rows, and so on. So it just like cutting those data into a group of 200 rows. Can I do this with the concept of "disconnected" of the DataSet?
I have set up a method in vb.net and in xcode for encrypting a string using as far as i can tell the same parameters for an AES encryption.I've looked all over the place but cannot find information on whether they use the same encryption algorithm and settings.
this is the vb.net code:
Dim encryptAES As New AesCryptoServiceProvider() Dim encoding As New UTF8Encoding() Dim encryptor As ICryptoTransform encryptAES.Key = encoding.GetBytes("12345678901234567890123456789032") encryptAES.IV = encoding.GetBytes("1234567890123416") encryptAES.Mode = CipherMode.CBC
I have a school assignment and I just started to learn VB. Until now I/ve done pretty good however I encountered a problem which I can't solve in this assignment. So, I would ask if someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong?
This is the assignment:The application calculates the new hourly pay for each of three job codes, given the current hourly pay for each job code and the raise percentage (entered as a decimal number).
a.) before the form appears, use the InputBox function to prompt the personnel clerk to enter the raise percentage. You will use the raise percentage to calculate the new hourly pay for each job code.
Is there a way to set a variable in VB.NET in an IF statement. I would like to do the following:
[Code]...
Is there some way I can get the last "ElseIf" to work? I know I can re-write it to get it to work but is there some syntax that will make it work the way it is?
I'm having an odd problem with an ASP.Net page.I'm getting an object not set error message when assigning a string literal to a variable. [code] And here is the code that the error is pointing to. The last line in this fragment is the line 10 the error is complaining about [code] It seems it fails on accessing any reference type, even if it is declared locally in the load function. I originally found the problem when Request. IsSecureConnection was nulling out on me. I eventually discovered I could replace it with the above code and fail in the same way. The problem does not always happen. It seems to be triggered by publishing an update from Visual Studio, or when I head home for the day and the server sits idle all night. One or two app pool recycles seems to clear it up, and the page functions correctly. I've been doing desktop development for a few years, but I'm fairly new to web development.So maybe this is something obvious I've got configured wrong. I'm currently using .Net 4 on IIS 6. That code is in a foreach over an IEnumerable(of XElement). The stack trace still points to the string assignment, but all other stack traces are spot on, so I don't think it's a bad pdb.Also, when the error occurred this time, no amount of recycling the app pool or stopping and starting it would fix the error. I finally got it working again by switching the application to a different app pool.
Are all values contained in a combobox automatically treated as a non-string even when they are string values (in this case "Male" & "Female") and what is the correct way of assigning the value selected in a combobox to a variable?
i am making a program on visual basic 2010 and part of my objective is to calculate the tax, i am trying to calculate the TAX so this is part of my code and this is the only part which gives me errors:[code]
1. Constant cannot be target of an assignment
2. value of type 'string' cannot be converted to 'System.windows.forms.Lebel'.
I have an assign ment that says: create an application to let the user enter his or her name (first and last name), then displays the Initial in Upper Case. FOr example: you enter "John Wow", then the Label will display "JW". I know that I'm supposed to use the Substring method. But to use the Substring, I have to have the exact location of the Leter that is going to be displayed in the Label.The problem is: the name that the user enters always vary. So in strnewstring.Substring(... , ...) ---> the number in the parenthesis would vary, too. Thus, I cannot put a number in there.So how can i create a code for this particular assignment.
Maybe this is a n00bish question, but I'm used to c++'s pointers and references and this is confusing me a bit. Let's say I have the following scenario in a VB.net application:
[Code]...
The situation is this: I have a collection of objects, and during execution of the program, any of them can be fetched from the collection to be used/edited by another part of the program. Now obviously if I edit the data inside the object it is allright, but what if I want to replace the object, as I did above at line 5? I would change only the local reference (y) but not the object inside the collection!
Is there a way around this? How can I take with me a "reference to the object's reference", instead of just a reference, so if I reassign it it will also reassign the one in the collection? I hope I'm making myself clear, unfortunately english is not my native language, to be clear: in c++ this would be easy using a pointer to a pointer, or passing a pointer to the object always by reference, so calling new or reassignment on it would change the original pointer itself)
I have post several parts of my assignment. Can someone advise me on how to do a log on screen. I have a splash which is on a timer, which is supposed to go to a logon screen. I have created the database project in visual studio 2008. Database was created in ms access 2007.
I've got one for you. I am working on a program that calculates the cost of a trip given a specific price of a Workshop say "Handling Stress for $595" the length of the workshop say "3 Days" and the city the workshop is in say "Austin for $95/day" now the issue i am having is that for example my NumDays variable (the variable for the number of days of the workshop) is not taking the value. Ive ran a Watch on the variable and it stays at 0. It also displays zero. i have assigned it an integer so it should be working if I assume correctly.
