View 12 RepliesWhile looking in the dataset designer for a database table I am doing in visual basic 2008 I found a line for expressions under the property menu for a specific column. I need to know the code that I would put in this expression line so that this column adds up the numbers I input into three other columns and displays that number in the column. I need it to automatically calculate this for each row in the database table.

View 3 RepliesI am getting a syntax error " Missing operand after 'Price' operator" with the following code, which should be right but obviously isn't. Any thoughts on where the error is?
table.Columns.Add("ADR Price", GetType(Double))

table.Columns.Add("Currency Price", GetType(Double))

Can someone tell me please if it is possible to create a datacolumn(LowestPrice), and using something like MIN expression, have this column (LowestPrice) populated with the lowest amount from 3 columns on the same row.[code]If possible could someone please provide the syntax or code for this to work
View 7 RepliesI never thought it would be so complicated to add a few days to a date field as an expression lol...
I have a [addDate] field in my Access Database that the user will put in a number. So if they type 10 then that represents 10 days.
There is preferably a textbox that will display the starting date, this will be bound to another table. (I can make another field with this data, or date/time chooser, etc if necessary).
What I want to do is add a calculated field [newDate] to my datagridview that will add the number of days typed in the [addDate] field to the starting date in the textbox.
I've tried making fields for [originalDate] and [addDate] and tried using [originalDate] + [addDate] as an expression but that give me a debug crash error because the designer won't let me add a system.datetime to anything and if I keep them as strings, they just combine the text, and the date as a double obviously don't work either.
I just want to ask if it is possible to create a function that accepts an expression into its arguments. Just like what IIF do. Ex: Dim strResponse as String = IIF(Msgbox("Select Yes or No", vbYesNo) = vbYes, "Yes", "No") I forgot the code, but its the thought that counts.

I was wondering how i could pass the following SLQ function to my datatable:
Select sum(Quantity) from Purchases where transaction_mode=1
I have DateTimePicker, and when I execute this procedure:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.TextBox1.Text = Me.DateTimePicker1.Value
sqltest = "SELECT * FROM Table " & _
"WHERE TOT_DATE = '" & Me.DateTimePicker1.Text & "'"
datest = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sqltest, con)
datest.Fill(dstest, "datepickertab")
Me.DataGridView1.DataSource = dstest.Tables(0)
End Sub
I have an access database with several tables. in one of the tables there are three columns named quantity, price and total cost.total cost is an expression of (quantity * price). the expression looks grate in the datagrid etc but when I need to save it to the database
View 1 RepliesShould I be concerned about the performance of the Compile method here?[code]...
The reason I want the lambda expression is because I want that function to be able to get all the way through LINQ-to-SQL to be converted to SQL. The reason I want the direct version is because I have other code that I want to validate individual serial numbers before submitting changes. And I fear that GetValidSerialNumbers.Contains(serialNumber) will execute a more-complex-than-necesssary query.
i read an article about datacolumn.expression property here [URL]. this is really great. but i was just wondering, for my case i want to use my custom function to use in the expression. basically, on my datatable i added an unbound column AGE. when i display records, i just want the age textbox to be populated with the computation of the person's age based on birthdate.

I need to execute scripted text formulas. I believe that in VB 6 and/or VBA there was a method EVAL() that did the job, eg: [Code] As it seems, such a method does not exist in VB.NET. [url] The method works fine but due to its comprehensive layout its not that fast (as i need to call it myriad of times) Does anyone have a SIMPLE, FAST, straight forward math expression method? Or anyone knows how to use the old EVAL method in VB.NET?

View 1 Repliesis there a simple way to truncate an array ? Something like placing an end characted in the array which would signify its end ?
Basically I have two arrays of slightly different sizes and I want to shorten them so they both have the same size. The end data I am truncating I don't need.
how to truncate my string value to 17 characters only.
in my program, the acceptable number of characters for First Name is 17. Characters more than 17 should be truncated but it may cut words in the middle. I need to make the length max 17 characters, but, if it cuts a word, it should also remove this half-word completely.
I have an VB.NET app that writes the status to a log file in text format. Over time, the file is getting large and I wanted to know if there is an efficient way to truncate the beginning of the file.
To make things easier, I am looking to specify a file size (say 2-3 mb) and I am writing the log using a StreamWriter:
Using strm As New IO.StreamWriter(filelocation.log, True)
strm.WriteLine("msg to write")
strm.Close()
End Using
I thought about using the strm.BaseStream.Length to determine how much of the file to cut off, but by using the .SetLength it would cut from the end - not the desired result.
I've been using it and even saw a method in a MSDN search given that suggests that it should be used but have found that there are defects using it. An example of problem occurring.
Dim db As Double
db = Int(10.12 * 100) / 100
db should be equal to 10.12 but the result you get will be 10.11. In the above example nothing is being truncated. If you added some digits right of the 2 it would give a good result. But if you're using a variable and it sometimes is equal to 10.12 or 9.12 etc. then a problem would occur. Also if 10.12 was replaced with 10.03 you'd get a result of 10.02. 10.04 gives a result of 10.03. 10.2 gives a result of 10.19. I'm now using code such as what is seen below instead of using Int() :
bd = Decimal.Truncate(CDec(10.12 * 100)) / 100
You could declare bd as a Decimal and then you wouldn't have to use CDec(). If I try Int(1012) the result is 1012 but Int(10.12 * 100) will give 1011. Pretty weird in my opinion.
I am working on an application in Visual Basic Express using an Access 2000 database.I am trying to get athe following SQL query to work but get an error in Access.
The query is:
SELECT [ID], [Title], [Author], [Series], [YearPublished], [ISBN], [CoverPrice], [Style], [Condition], [Signed], [Comments], Count([Title]) AS CountOfBooks, Sum([CoverPrice]) AS TotalCoverPrice
FROM tblBooks
WHERE ID=[@ID];
The error is:"You have tried to execute a query that does not include the spec ified expression 'ID' as a part of the aggragate function."
The query works fine without the 'Count' and 'CoverPrice' count and sum to the query.
How can I "truncate" a DateTime variable so that only e.g. the current minute remains?

I wrote a loop that posted an accrued principal cycle to a listbox for a period of 10 years (10 loop cycles). The problem is: not only does the amount of the principal reconfigure for each loop cycle, but it does not truncate into a two decimal place holder as it should. I would like to use the ("F2") but I am not sure where to put it within the code. Here is what I have for the Calculate button event handler.
