i am currently working on a small project, but to be honest i am quite new to VB i am trying to run this code:
For i As Integer = 1 To box_select_solp
cell_solp_text(i).Controls.Add(New LiteralControl("SOLP" & i & "#: "))
Next i
Lets just say we have this as Command1 Dim Command1 = "whoami.exe >> C:Hello.Txt" The program will read a list of users from a text file and then perform the action on each of them. If the user does not exist, or they are part of a password protected computer, I would like to see that in my printout. I have this but am Unsure how to write the If Then Statement (If that is the ebst route to take)

View 5 RepliesI've spent the last 3 hours trying to figure out why this string won't concatenate.
The function takes in a mapped drive letter and creates a UNC path and returns it.
Any thoughts welcome:
In VB.net, I tested concatenating 100k strings and found out one thread alone did it in 23 milliseconds. Two threads (each concatenating 50k) then joining the two at the end took 30 milliseconds. Performance wise, it didn't seem beneficial to utilize multiple threads when dealing with only 100k concatenations. Then I tried 3 million string concatenations and two threads each handling 1.5MM always demolished one thread handling all 3 million. I imagine at some point using 3 threads becomes beneficial, then 4, and so on. Is there a more efficient way to concatenate millions of strings in .NET?
fyi, this is the code I wrote:
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.IO

Is there any difference between & and + operators while concatenating string?if yes, then what is difference? And if No, then why below code generating exception?

I am wondering how to concatenate a string and an integer to form a button name.eg, ("button" & x) where x is an integer to form button1, button2, etc so i can change the backcolor of the buttons.

View 2 RepliesPossible Duplicate: The difference between + and & for joining strings in VB.Net.In VB.NET you can use either += or &= to concatenante a string (ignoring using a StringBuilder for this question -- this is directed at a very simple concatenation).
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to compose a String from multiple Strings, where some of the Strings may be in Arabic letters, the problem is that when I concatenate them, their order is being messed !!
For example, I have the following Strings:
Ref1
مسكه
2
Left
I want to concatenate them with the same previous order seperated by "-", but instead I get Ref1-مسكه-2-Left, as you can see, 2 is written before مسكه Does anyone know how to fix this problem, because it's really important in my case to have the exact same order, and I don't know where or when I might have these arabic strings, because it's being entered by User.

I am creating a program to simulate a tenpin bowling scoring system, and I'm using labels with the following name structure:
Player1Frame1Ball1, Player1Frame1Ball2, etc..
I have following variables also: CurrentPlayer, CurrentFrame, CurrentBall
I am hoping to use these variables to specify which label I would like to check the value of (the score achieved, placed in the label).
To test my experiments I have been trying to output the score of the first ball in the current frame in a msgbox, but to no success:

When I am concatenating object values together to form a string in VB.NET, is there a difference in performance or a recommended best practice between using the & concat or the + concat with calls to .ToString() on each object?
Example (which is faster or best practice):
Dim result1 As String = 10 & "em"
Dim result2 As String = 10.ToString() + "em"

This is what I want, but it doesn't help that its in the debug output...I need to put it into a single string. I've tried using a_thing.count(i).tostring, but it doesnt work. If I look at the arrays individually, they have exactly the contents I want. But I can't concatenate them. Does it have something to do with suppressing the new line that debug.writeline usually creates?
I have combobox for year and combobox for month concatenated to make the date format "2012-01" My db field is RecordDate and is smallDateTime In my select statement im trying to use the left function to find match my concatenated string to the RecordDate field.Here is my code, hopefully someone can help me.

I've got a small app which I use to start a 3rd party application. When run from a shortcut the VB app starts the 3rd party app to and when loaded it displays its own file/folder interface, the VB app the closes itself. However, if you open a file in explorer associated with the 3rd party app, the 3rd party application loads and opens the file itself and not the file/open interface.
Uh OK, so what's the problem??The issue is I have changed the file extension associated with the 3rd party app to now use my VB app. I can successfully open files with the app from explorer if there are no spaces in the file or folder path however if there are, the 3rd party app opens and displays a File not found error message and gives the path up to the point where the space then follows.The relevant snippets of code from the app relating to the issue is below, specifically Dim Arguments variable where I am not quite sure how my string cocantenation should be to deal with the value of the variable 'Filename' which may or may not contain spaces.

I am using the following code to run defrag and to analyze if the C: drive requires defragmentation:
Dim analyze As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32defrag.exe", "C: /a /h /u /v")

My problem is that as soon as the process is complete the command window closes. I need it to stay open so that I can read the results.
I am trying to send a command to the external command line (cmd.exe) from the Windows form application that I'm writing in VB.NET (using VS2008).

I was convinced that If <expression> Then <statement [:statement]> Else [statements] in concrete form of If a = b Then SayHello() Else SayBye() End has sense. I read article on msdn on If-then-else, but I forgot why I was reading, so I concluded, that snippet above means this
If a = b Then HelloIsSaid : IsNotEnded Else ByeIsSaid : IsEnded But I have tested it now, and I see, that Else without statement is nothing more than decoration. It would be pretty good if it had function I described. Do you think its good request? Or do you know any circumstance where this Else has some function?
