This is the code:
1.Dim mm As ArrayList = New ArrayList
2.Dim i As Integer
3. For i = 0 To intTotParam - 1
mm.Add(arrInputFileData(arrPosition(i)))
Next
4. Dim ss As String() = mm.Item(0)
5. MessageBox.Show(ss(0))
I am getting the error "Specified cast is not valid" at line 4.
Actually i need to sort the arraylist and find the largest element.
Retrieving the strings that has been added in the arraylists is of primary importance in my project and needed at many places.
Please help me out

You can't convert an object to a string just like that.
Try converting it to string format first.

can you give me the code
for converting the object to string format
and displaying in message box

This is why arraylist totally sucks. You can't use VB.NET 2.0 ?
object has a ToString() method, that's the best way to convert to string.

I tried the following
Dim ob as object
for each ob in tempArray
dim m as string
m=ob
next
if ob had ToString Method it should have shown...but it only has to
GetType method.
Seems there is no way to retrieve strings from the arraylists

Try Cstr(ob)

EVERYTHING in .NET has a ToString() method. It's guarenteed.

Rubbish. If it's a string, you can cast it to string. The issue is, the ArrayList is nasty, it stores objects, ToString would not crash, no matter what the object is.

It doesn't work because you tried to convert an object (you didn't say what was stored in arrPosition()), stored in element 0, to an Array of Strings as specified by your String() declaration.
I believe it should have been:
Dim ss As String = mm.Item(0).ToString()

How do you validate users input against access database using select statement on vb.net.

It depends how the data is structured.

Thanks in advance, Zaegra

You need a nested loop to compare the x and y directions. You need to post your code for us to understand where you're failing in what is a pretty straightforward task.

I have encorporated Window media Player in my Vb.net Project. I am getting the different different Urls and want to play through my media player. But I am not able to play these Urls through media player.Please help me .
I am storing the url in string like str
and then giving the command
windowmedia1.url=str
but it is not playing anything

I don't use MediaPlayer at all, but it would appear that you have to set the URL property, then call the Play method of the CtrlControls collection.
myPlayer.URL = "some URL..."
myPlayer.Ctlcontrols.play()

Guys,
Does anyone here can help me to create a utility program in vb6 that will prevent certain exe program from running? Can anyone give me code snippets.
Thanks!

That's physically not possible. How would you hope it would work ? If it were possible, VB6 isn't going to do it.

You can't do what you want because you'd have to hook Windows Loader to do it. This is "black-art" type stuff that has very little to no documentation on how to do it. Any examples of hooking API functions are going to be in C++ and do things that VB6 is no capable of producing a .DLL or .EXE for.

Hi all. I have a listview with images and my application must be able to rotate one image. I need a method to rotate 90 degrees rigth (i.e.).
Is that possible?
Regards,
Diego F.

|
|
|
|
Try using this:
Load the image from the listview in a picturebox.
Then:
PictureBox1.Image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate90FlipNone)
And then load it back into the listview.
I think that might do the trick.

I'm tryint that but it doesn't work
If DADLV1.SelectedItems.Count > 0 Then
Dim pb As New PictureBox
Dim indice As Integer = DADLV1.SelectedItems(0).ImageIndex
pb.Image = ImageList1.Images(indice)
pb.Image.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipXY)
DADLV1.Refresh()
End If
Regards,
Diego F.

Why would you do this ?
ImageList1.Images(indice).RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipXY)
is all you need, unless it returns an image, then you may need
ImageList1.Images(indice) = ImageList1.Images(indice).RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipXY)

Yes, i didn't think of that but that method is way better.

I tried that line, but no rotation is done.
ImageList1 is the imagelist that keeps the images shown in the listview
DADLV1 is the listview
I tried also that:
Dim indice As Integer = DADLV1.SelectedItems(0).ImageIndex DADLV1.SelectedItems(0).ImageList.Images(indice).RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate180FlipXY)
But nothing occurs.
It seems quite simple. I don't know why it doesn't work.
Regards,
Diego F.

you are rotating the image in "pb" but not placing back in "DADLV1"
so "DADLV1" is still having the unrotated image.
Regards
KP

It still doesn't work.
Maybe I'm trying to rotate the wrong thing

Diego F.
