I wanted a good example of the GOTO statement, I really want to know how to imply the goto statement in my future projects.

View 2 RepliesI'm just wondering why using GoTo<label> is so frowned upon?I'm learning VB, and I want to develop good habits as I go. One thing I don't entirely understand, is why everyone avoids GoTo like its the plague (except in error handling...). I feel like GoTo could be useful in some situations.

Suppose in VB.NET you have:
Try
Debug.Print("Trying...")
Catch ex as Exception
throw new Exception("Exception", ex)
Finally
Debug.Print("Finally...")
End Try
How would you write this using the "On Error Goto" construct? (please no questions asking why I would want to do this, just curious if it can be done).
I have a for each item in listbox:
try
'code goes here
catch ex as exception
end try
next
now, in my code, i also have if ex = certain error. i'd like it to go back to the top of the try. reason for not letting it do its thing is, i am wanting it to retry it, under the same item. So, is there a way to goto a portion of the code.

View 3 RepliesHow to tell the program that if the field is empty to skip it and go to the next step. I have tried IsEmpty (but it tells me the variable IsEmpty was not declared), I have tried to use different If statements but in most cases I get the message
"Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'String' is not valid."
I tried using an integer variable and setting it to
'Test = CStr(dt.Rows(I)("socSecNumber")).Length'.
It works for the first step (which makes sense b/c socSecNumber is never empty), but when I set the 2nd and 3rd ones
(TestFName = CStr(dt.Rows(I)("firstName")).Length TestLName = CStr(dt.Rows(I)("lastName")).Length If TestFName > 0 And TestLName > 0 Then...)
Then I am back to getting the message
'Conversion from type 'DBNull' to type 'String' is not valid'.
I do not know anything about recordset and when I did try to use it it displayed the message something like 'get and set are no longer allowed'.
The entire function is below:
Private Sub BtnCreateLetter_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnCreateLetter.Click
Dim SSN As String = TxtBxSSN.Text
Dim dt As New DataTable()
[Code] .....
Is it possible to include something in the SELECT from table? Such as:
"SELECT * FROM" & Students & "WHERE" * NOT DBNull
or
I do not know if it is possible to use variables in the SELECT from table code but if it is I thought perhaps could make a variable named FieldContents and pass it to a function that would do something like:
"SELECT * FROM" & Students & "WHERE" * FieldContents LIKE '[A-Z]'
i was trying to make a free microsoft word plugin in vb.net. It automatically fills a web form. The main problem with the plugin is that it uses web browser control and once it has filled a form it will need to navigate another form. The form can only be filled once it has completely been loaded.so my approach is
1. navigate to first site when form loads
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://google.com")
End Sub
2. use an integer i and use if statements to check which form to fill :
Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEv entArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted
If (i = 1) Then[code].....
3. this is the main step. you see when main form loads, i=1 so browser goes to google.com (first form), when form is completely loaded, itchecks for value of i. Since i=1, it fills google. After filling and continuing i=2 and browser goes to my personal account page. This means browser again loads the document. Now i=2, so it fills my personal detalis. Now the timer starts. Since i=3, browser navigates to second site and fills the details.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
If (i = 3) Then
WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://blogger.com")[code]...
now the problem arises. The browser does not go to the third site. Once the timer has been stopped and started, the following code does not goto the elseif part (i.e. i=5) why is that so?
I've seen a few people on here saying that you shouldnt use GoTo in VB.NET and to be honest I've tended to agree as I have never needed to use it and there is always another way of doing something without using it. However, I'm just wondering what is so bad about it? I actually noticed that Microsoft seem to use it a fair bit in the internal .NET framework code, which is what makes me wonder why people are so against it.

View 4 RepliesI'm currently making a code that will login to a cisco router, and show the version, then return the version to me. The connection to the cisco router is using telnet, and I'm using Dimac's w3Sockets code to Connect, login, and return data. Reference
But currently I'm having some problems, since the router sometimes need the login typed 2 times, or having a key pressed to update the terminal(telnet),meaning i have to check if it gets logged in or not. But the problem is that using dimac code, i can only wait() and waitFor(), and if it none data comes whilst waiting, it keeps on waiting. Is there away to do like: "if wait fails goto"
I've tryed "on error goto", but since its not a error, but just keeps waiting, that dont work. Also, To locate where it gets stuck I have it write to my textbox everytime it takes a step in the code, but its like the dimac code overtakes vb.net. ex: If i send some text to a textbox in the same sub as the connect code is, and it gets stuck at a wait, it dont even write to the textbox, eventhough the textbox.text command was suppose to execute before the wait().
Code:
Private Sub telnet(ByVal port)
TextBox3.Text = TextBox3.Text & Environment.NewLine & "Telnet func Called" 'Cant execute this if it gets stuck at login below. ??

The problem, The INSERT statement works fine in the form load but not in the button click event?
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?
