i am creating a ticket ordering system, there is 5 - 10 step for public user to choose what they want. These steps is dynamic, can some one advice me what is the best way to store data during steps, so that i can have a back button to return to previous step or retrieve data from step when compiler at last?
View 1 RepliesI am coding a program that will allow the user to input 5 payrolls for Store 1, Store 2, and Store 3. The total of the 5 payrolls are then added together and shown in the respective Store's labels. A total label is also there to add up all the totals into one number. The numbers in the label must be in currency form. My problem is the numbers don't add correctly when I hit calculate. The first two numbers add together, but then after that the number just seems to subtract a random amount.
So far I have this --
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Me.Close()

I want to poll (continueously read) data from certain registers of the device, and store the polled data in a file (text,csv, excel).
I have an application that uses Dataset.WriteXML to create a small backup before data is syncronized to a data store (less than a meg).This application has worked well for 5 years now, and all of a sudden with the installation of XML 6.0 SP2 the XML document is not working correctly.I have multiple tables within a Dataset (Company, Contact, Notes, etc...)When WriteXML is called, the first table should be Company, however, the first table is being named Contact with the Company Data in it. The Notes table is being called Contact and so forth. In other words it's not giving the correct names to the tables in the XML File.This appears to be a bug, which is causing great distress on all the companies who have been using this program.
View 3 RepliesI should start a project where several clients are included. There is a wcf web service controler that after a call from an specific client about a certain question it will retrive data from a server in London and then it will pass it back to the corresponding client in a different country e.g.
Clients and service are far away. the only way of transportation is through HTTP and intenet connection. Service should be able to callback also so i guess it will be dualHttpBinding.

View 1 RepliesI am currently debugging throught a lengthy piece of code that behaves differently if the batch loaded is created from one way or another. I have tried going through it and it seems each step is the same, so my question is, Is there a tool that will record each line of code that is hit while debugging? so instead of writing everything down and risk missing something i could just run the program use beyond compare to compare the results of both runs.

View 1 RepliesI am relatively new to the world of programming and I was wondering if anybody could help me with a small project. I am trying to create two programs in VB.Net that each do one of the following individual actions:Find the average grade given several user-inputted scores on assignments. The program should also provide the following feedback according to the final score (i.e. A, B, C, D, F).Run two separate threads printing numbers (or words) in ascending and descending orders. (The numbers (or words) should be given by the user.)I have a basic understanding of VB.Net, but I am having trouble when it comes to creating even remotely complex programs. I have a few ideas on how I may go about these, such as using an arraylist for the first question that takes user input to find the grades, and then uses a series of If-Then-Else statements to display the letter grade, and possibly using steps simply with dual threading that would result in numerical order being printed in ascending order and descending order.
View 1 RepliesI have code that runs a deal.deal is a series of conditional steps [e.g., pay Fee1 from Account2 if (Variable5 > 500, Variable5 / 2, 0)].
These conditional steps are stored as strings in an access database.The conditional part can be extremely complex.
What is the best way to get my code to understand the conditional part?Do have to write some huge parser?
Is there a function that can do this for me(something similar to application.evaluation function in VBA)?Or do I need to approach this in an entirely different way?
list the steps to fill a combobox using a bindingsource. I dragged a bindingsource onto a form, created a datatable and datatableadapter(correct term?), added a query. I tried but I am missing something, my combobox displays System.Data.

Just for an example, suppose one wanted to have an array of 9 buttons in a 3x3 pattern already labeled 1-9 as a control usable from the toolbox just as a single button or label etc. is, so that one could drag it from the toolbox to the form or a groupbox.

This is weird. I have a class that inherits from IEnumrable whose Count property is reporting 0 (zero) elements but the For Each loop steps into the loop body and tries to use the variable where it should just be moving on. My code:
On Error Resume Next
Dim d As Foo
For Each d In fooCollection
' use d and throws an exception
Next d
Weirder still, every time d is accessed i get an exception thrown in the output window:
A first chance exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException'
but i'm not stopping on the exception (not in a try/catch block).Is "On Error Resume Next" causing this weirdness?
Weirdness found:Per Rowland's and JohnH's comments i checked the Foo class:The GetEnumerator method inside of Foo didn't actually return anything! It had an empty body. That coupled with the On Error Resume Next before the loop caused the havoc! Wow this was ugly.

View 1 RepliesI hope this is the correct place to obtain a little bit of advice for a program I am looking to produce in visual basic 2010.
I currently work as a design engineer designing press tools and a lot of our designs are similer just maybe a feature, length, diameter change etc. So the design principles are the same for each product.
What I am aiming to do is program the 3D design package so that 80% of the tool design can be done using the program etc.
Now the enquiry I have is where would the best place to hold the standard data be?
For instance each press has a maximum blank diameter, shutt height, bores diameters in the bed and likewise each product type has design features with the same calculations such as length, pierce etc.
I have done a bit of reading and I have found that data can be stored into text files, xml files and databases etc or hard coded into the program.
I am looking to allow new presses to be added so the user would need to add new shutt heuights, blank size etc but the tooling would have to be unqiue dependent on the typs of stage. So I am wondering to store this information would a database be the best option even though the data will not be continually updated more a place for it to be retrived from excpet under failry rare circumstances.
I was thinking about using an access database to store the data but I would like to know if there is a better way of storing data?

View 5 RepliesI've just finished an application which does everything I want within the Visual Studio environment now I need a way to store the data the user creates but I've never had to do it before and am a bit lost. I've spent days trying to use XML to do this but to no avail mainly cos my classes use ArrayLists as properties and it gets a bit beyond me. I've been told that ArrayLists were not the best choice for this and would be prepared to change my design if need be if I thought the end to this problem was in sight.

What is the BEST way to read/write from a database (I only really know how to use Access but if XML or SQL would be better, I'm willing to learn). The database needs to be stored and accessed from the same state every time that the program opens. I've tried multiple different ways, both through DataAdapters (in code) to doing it through connecting the database through the Visual Studio GUI. Neither have seemed to work. Other people have told me that using DataAdapters and such aren't the best way, but no one has been able to tell me what this 'best way' is. Also, I need to somehow be able to link pictures in the database - apparently it's not easy to do in SQL?[code]...
