The string itself contains things like "random" & random.next(1,3) & "random2" etc. The string registers all of this as a string and doesn't actually calculate random numbers.Is there any way to fix this?
View 8 RepliesHow can I generate a random string of 8 numbers and letters?
View 8 RepliesI have to (for class) make a program that generates a safe passwords for people to use. My teacher wants us to make the passwords vary in length, include numbers, letters and upper case letters. I've been able to write code that prints out a random string but it includes unrecognized characters for most passwords. How would I write the code to create a random string that has parameters? (in this case upper case lower case letters and numbers).
View 9 RepliesBasically what I'm trying to do is to get the program to select a text string that has 2 random numbers in it from a RichTextBox. The string it would find would be similar to this:"items_win.php?item_id=24&item_number=590576"But the bolded section changes every time the page is refreshed, so how can i find the string with the numbers every time no matter what they are?
View 5 RepliesI made a small license generator app with a datetimepicker, a textbox and a button on the form. When I ran the app and clicked the button to generate a license I got - 16DDD-06DDDD-09DDDDD, and each subsequent button click would get me a license with a different generated character (16444-064444-0944444, etc...).
I thought this was unusual as it should be generating a random character not a repeating one, so I stepped through in debug and the characters generated were random (161g2-06T5ip-0957H9k). I thought perhaps that I needed to seed the value with Now().Milliseconds, no luck, that still resulted in repeating characters. So I tried sleeping the thread and that generated the random values I wanted.

I have buttons generated through code (dynamically). I have to associate an event (the same) to them. I use AddHandler button.click, AddressOf mysub.The issue is that mysub gets a string (mysub(string)), but AddressOf doesn't accept a parameter inside the routine. How can I do this? Using also an alternative to AddressOf.

Is there a method to calculate an equation from a string that looks something like "(1 + 1) * 2"?
View 9 RepliesIt's possible to calculate a string that has a formula something like:
dim val as integer
dim formula as string = "(5/1.5) + 10"
val = formula
And the result should be 13.33

The checksum byte is generated in such a manner that the result of addition of all bytes of a message will become 11111111(255). the code that you see here does not work can anyone tell/show me why? Whats important is the checksum calculation.

View 4 RepliesI've made a function in C# to create a random string, but I wanted to convert it to VB.NET, unfortunately my knowledge of Visual Basic is much less than my knowledge of C#.
Here is my VB.NET function:
CODE:
As you will see, its not much different from my C# version, except that since VB can take an optional parameter, I allow the user to select what characters to use in the string, or just use the default ones.
Here's the C# version of my function:
CODE:
Again, there's not much different, but the part I'm really struggling on is the conversion between what is the 12th line of VB code, and the 13th line of C# code. I didn't really know how to convert it to VB.NET (as I said, my knowledge of it is very limited), so I used an online converter. The result of the online converter runs with no errors, however when I try to call the function, no string appears.
In short, this C# code works fine:
CODE:
However, this VB.NET code doesn't work:

View 1 RepliesSo how would I use .next (random numbers) to randomly select something from a list of numbers but it can't repeat the number?I could do:
dim num as integer
dim r as new random
num = r.next(1,5)
if num = 1 then
elseif num = 2 then
etc.
That wouldn't work because it would repeat.If I donwload someone's game can I disect it in VS? :0 I tried going to open project, then I went to the folder and clicked open. It brought me inside of the folder so I tried to open the game but there is no form1 there. It says the games name then .exe in the explorer-like thing in the top right?Also, how would I have a value or something in a label and access it from a button.
Example:This is in a label.
Dim number as Integer
number = 0
Then in the button do
Label.number = 0
How would I do something like that? I want to use that a lot as I did in a different language.
I'm working with referenced VB6 DLL's. The problem is that the results of a method/function call are not the same. Below the code examples:
First VB.Net Dim Validations() As String myErr = myEntry.ValidateLine(Validations)
When validation fails, the string array Validations is filled with the error description string. I've tried to accomplish the same in C#:
private string[] valArray = null;
sdkError = sdkEntry.ValidateLine(valArray);
Does anyone have an idea why I can't get C# to fill the string array? Additionally, the function in VB is called with ref to a System.Array ValidateLine(ref System.Array ValErrors), perhaps it has something to do with this?
I've stumbled upon this code:
var knownSeparators = new[] { "\", "/", "|", "." };
return knownSeparators.FirstOrDefault(path.Contains);
where path is a string and the return value should be a string as well.
Allthough path.Contains' intellisense suggests a parameter, it works fine without one.
How does this work exactly? Is there any way to copy this behavior in vb.net?
