this is for homework but I have 90% of the project done, I just need to finish the data validation portion of the code.This is what I have for the calculate click event:
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
Dim intInputA As Integer
Dim intInputB As Integer
Dim intInputC As Integer
[code]....
My Problem: I am using the Try parse to validate weather the inputA(B)(C) is an integer or not, if it is an integer, i want it to move to the nested if and validate that it is a positive number, and show the error message in the label if it is not. If it is not a number at all i want it to show another message in the label. The problem that I am getting is that even if i put in a letter for the input it does not catch it and it continues on to the select case, which comes out 0.
I have a LINQ2Entity problem, I want to get the value, string, from a database, so I select FProducts.Serial_number, and to end the query, I do .ToDictionary. The problem is, it tells me that it doesn't have sufficient parameters, to convert ToDictionary. So I need something like select FProducts.Serial_number, Nothing). ToDictionary. Also FProducts.Serial_number, 0).ToDictionary doesn't work.
Sub GetStatistics(ByVal ProductNumbers As List(Of String), ByRef Passed As Integer, ByRef FailedProducts As List(Of String))
Passed = 0
FailedProducts = Nothing

I'm trying to set an Integer value from my.settings.The values comes frpm a listbox, and then inserted to settings (set to specialized.StringCollection)The problem is when i'm trying to get the values and apply them to my function.Error code: Conversion from string "65 & 71" to type 'Integer' is not valid.To me it looks right, but maybe i'm missing something.

In my spare time i give myself programming stuff to do. Today i want to write a function that goes through a string, if the string contains any numeric value the function must return false, if the string has any special characters it must also return false else return true. For example the following strings would return as follows:
String Return Value
Travis True
78* False

how can i convert these datatypes: date to string and integer to string.Because it must be in a string datatype when I display it in a datetimepicker and textbox.

I believe this is referring to the connection string. I've set breakpoints and checked that the entry in the password is correct (and that there is a value in it).
To make it clear this IS homework, however this is also a method of research. i only ask when i get in binds i can not find answers to in other forums . There are so many i could spend more time[code]...

How do I convert from a string to an integer? Here's what I tried:
Price = CInt(Int(txtPrice.Text))
I took out the Int and I still got an exception.
I know this is a proper enum:
Private Enum Months
JANUARY = 1
FEBRUARY = 2
...
End Enum
However, I want to have an enum where the string will solely be integers.
Example:
Private Enum ColumnCounts
01 = 5
02 = 4
03 = 40[code].....
Essentially, I didn't want to put the f in there, just wanted to do 01. The way this will be called is:
Select Case (nRecordType)
Case "01"
...
Case "02"[code].....
Because I'm not making an instance of it and not calling a constructor, there's no way to autopopulate a Dictionary.And I don't want to convert to integer so I'm not going to do an array. That is just in case eventually the value gets above 99 and the next value would be A0.I'm trying to think of easy future changes to this and backwards compatability.If you need more explanations, let me know.
Edit 2:This is what I've done now and I think it should work:
Public Class Part
Private Shared columnCounts As Dictionary(Of String, Integer) = New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
Public Shared Function ValidateColumns(ByRef lstFiels As List(Of String)) As Boolean[code]....
I can't verify that it's going to do what I want to, but it doesn't give me an error when I build it so I'm crossing my fingers.
[code]This code wont work, it claims it cant be converted from a string to integer, i have tried CInt, but that doesnt work either.

I would like to convert for example the string "98" to the integer 98. Also, is there a way to specify that the value contained in the string is in hexadecimal and that "98" gets converted to 152?

I am working on a form of copy protection for some software i am developing. In order to generate a unique license for a machine i am aquiring information about the hardware the software is running on. For this task i aquire the 'BIOS version' of the machine using the Win32 libaries. As the BIOS version format can vary from machine to machine i need to be able to convert a string value to a integer so i can perform a mathmatical calculation on it.
A typical BIOS version output may look like 'GBT42302e31' for eg once all the spaces and characters are removed. However this output can change dramatically between motherboard manufacturers.How do i convert the value 'GBT42302e31' to a integer like '5356243' for eg so i can then perform a calculation or hexidecimal conversion on it?.
I have tried the following and they all fail with numerous conversion errors:Cint Convert.ToInt64()
I want to take each character in a string and multiply it by 7 then 3 then 1. And then loop back to 7 etc. This is what I got but it doesn't work
For Each ch As Char In row("SCAN2").ToString
product = Convert.ToInt64(ch) * 7
Next
Lets say the first character is 8. It should be 8 * 7 = 56
but I get 392.

I am writing some code which needs me to parse the integer from a string. For example:
Dim str as String = "300ML"
I need to store the 300 to an Integer and discard the "ML" from the end. I can't seem to find a sensible way of doing this other than using RegEx. However, for the life of me I can not get my head around RegEx.

i have a listbox that loads a text file containing numerous strings for example:
42Sheep (theres a tab inbetween the number and the text)
i want to just return the number at the beggining i was going to use substrings but the list goes in to 4 digit numbers
I wonder if this is not possible dim mystring as string="1" dim myint As Nullable(Of Integer) myint=0 myint=mystring It crashes on the last line why is that? mystring is already integer (1) , i dont have to cast using cint, i thought. option strict off- if this cause the problem
