Well, first of all, why do you want to create an array of all different types ? That kind of sucks.
Second, never use MsgBox, or any other things that exist only to make VB6 coders feel warm and fuzzy. Use the .NET stuff, such as MessageBox.Show. In this case, it doesn't matter much, but it's a good habit to get into.
Have you stepped through the code, to see what's happening ?
thedom2 wrote: ObjArray = Nothing
If your array object is 'nothing', then it's not an array, is it ? You would do better to use a dynamic container such as ArrayList. Either way, if you want to have an array with 3 objects in it, you need to call new to create it. You've done the opposite, you've told the compiler that there's no memory to assign yet, and no object exists.

well ultimately i wanted a function that output 3 items(hence the array)
when i try the below line
dim objArray as NEW array
intellisense tells me "cannot be used on a class that is declared 'mustinherit'"
the objArray=nothing was me "trying" to debug/test the fucntion(that didnt work)
any suggestions oh wise one

worked it out this is the code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'this calls function and select 2nd array element
MessageBox.Show(Spot(1).ToString)
End Sub
Function Spot() As Array
Dim ObjArray As Array = Array.CreateInstance(GetType(Object), 3)
Dim Obj1, obj2, obj3 As Object
Obj1 = "Hello World"
obj2 = 69
obj3 = False
ObjArray(0) = Obj1
ObjArray(1) = obj2
ObjArray(2) = obj3
Return ObjArray
End Function
Christian you cant actually use new keyword on array member well thats what i read on msdn. you need to use createinstance to get the thing in memory and work with object. thanks for your help anyway

You typically wouldn't do this. In C# you'd do it like this
object [] ObjArray = new object[3];
I have no idea how it's done in VB, but I'm sure there's a way.

Indeed there is
Dim myArray() as Object = new Object(3){}

i think it would be much more easier if you wrote a class that holds the data and put cllas-instances into an ArrayList:
' The class that holds the data
class mydata
public StringValue as string
public IntValue as integer
public BoolValue as Boolean
end class
' Your Function Spot
Function Spot() As ArrayList
Dim ObjArray As New ArrayList()
Dim clsInstance1 As New mydata
Dim clsInstance2 As New mydata
With clsInstance1
.StringValue = "Hello World"
.IntValue = 69
.BoolValue = False
End With
With clsInstance2
.StringValue = "Hello Again"
.IntValue = 96
.BoolValue = True
End With
ObjArray.Add(clsInstance1)
ObjArray.Add(clsInstance2)
Return ObjArray
End Function
' in your Button-Click:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.Click
Dim arrList as ArrayList = Spot()
MsgBox(arrList(1).IntValue.ToString())
End Sub

Hi
I am using getresponestream function to get a stream and read from it
but I need to seek.
what can I do?
Please help me.
thanks.
Every new thing you learn,Gives you a new personality.

You could try creating a FileStream based on the Stream returned.
However I don't think that will work because NetworkStreams are seekable.
I have no idea what I just said. But my intentions were sincere.

I created an application and require the application to be launched from the “Windows Explorer” context menu. I created the context menu with the following code below “Sub AddToContextMenu”
I added the following code into “Sub Main” and “Sub New” (below). I set the start up object to sub main. The good news is that the application does launch from the context menu but it does not pass in the name of the file I want to open with my application.
Please Help.
Private Sub AddToContextMenu(ByVal V_Name As String, ByVal V_Path As String)
Dim regmenu As RegistryKey = Nothing
Dim regcmd As RegistryKey = Nothing
Try
regmenu = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey(MenuName)
If Not regmenu Is Nothing Then
regmenu.SetValue("", V_Name)
regcmd = Registry.ClassesRoot.CreateSubKey(Command)
End If
If Not regcmd Is Nothing Then
regcmd.SetValue("", V_Path)
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
#Region "Startup Application"
'The main entry point for the application.
<stathread()> Public Shared Sub Main(ByVal Args() As String)
Dim str_In As String = vbNullString
Try
str_In = Args(0).ToString
Catch ex As Exception
str_In = vbNullString
str_In = "C:\Temp\Error.xls"
End Try
Application.Run(New frm_Main(str_In))
End Sub
Public Sub New(ByVal vals As String)
MyBase.New()
'This call is required by the Windows Forms Designer.
InitializeComponent()
If Not vals = vbNullString Then
Dim frmFileAdd As New frm_FileAdd(vals)
Try
frmFileAdd.ShowDialog()
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
End If
End Sub
#End Region

If you are using the designers then a component called a TableAdaptor should have been added to the form. (Or you can reference it in code) you need to use this class to update the data to the database.

hello, i am not very familiar with vb.net controls and i want to open a link from one WebBrowser control to another.For example when a link is being clicked in one window the infomration is loaded in a different WebBrowser.
Anybody that can help. thanks
Ol

You would have to find a way to pass the URL to the new browser window. You could do this by saving the URL somewhere (i.e. file), and then reading the file when the browser starts up to open the link.
I also think that there is a away to pass arguments to other programs, you could also try this.

I am having a hard time coding a program that I have been working on. Everytime I try to declare my variables,I get an error message. Help. Does anyone have examples?

Maybe posting a snipped of the code, together with the error message, will help us (and you).

What resources do you have ? If you're unable to declare a variable, my advice would be that you need to buy a simple book and work through it.
Posting such a question without any example code or error info also makes it impossible for anyone to help you.

Assuming you mean simple things like declaring a variable and assigning a value to it I think this simple sample should do the trick:
Dim a as String 'Declares a string variable with the name a, but doesnt assign a value<br />
Dim b as New Form() 'Declares a form variable with the name b and assigns a new instance of a form to it<br />
<br />
a = "Hello World"
Cheers.

VB6 was not a real language. VB.NET is, sort of.
Rahithi wrote: VB.NET & C#?
VB.NET is loosely typed, and carries a lot of legacy VB garbage ( easily removed, never use the VisualBasic namespace ). C# is strongly typed, is a new language with no legacy stuff, and is subject to an independent standard. IMO, VB.NET exists to make the VB6 crowd happy, C# is meant to be a new and compelling language.

The Big difference is between VB and VB.NET. If you can, use the latter.
AFAIK VB.NET & C# are functionally equivalent, so it's a matter of taste (I know everyone, here will disagree...).
Bottom line: there very good are VB (VB6 I mean) programmers, while there are very poor C# (and C++) programmers, though this is the exception, not the rule.

That's mostly true. I'd summarise that the stuff C# has that VB does not, I'd prefer over the stuff VB has and C# does not, and that VB contains more dangerous traps for the inexperienced.
