if you use Visual Studio - no, I am NOT using Visual Studio. As stated, I am using the VBA that comes with Excel 2002 (Office XP Pro)
if you have the solution pane open - don't know what that is
if you have ever clicked the "show all files" button - don't know what that is
if your form happens to be called Form1 - as stated the form name is "frmRecordJob"
if you used Visual Designer to add a first ListBox and a second ListBox
and if you did change their default names to lstCode1 and lstCode2 - I used the pane on the upper left of VBE (title says VBAProject-JobLog.xls' to insert the new user form at initial design time. I don't believe this is what you are referring to as 'Visual Designer'.
No file "Form1.Designer.vb" exists on my system.
What leads you to believe that I "keep adding and removing ListBoxes with all kinds of names and changing code files without really understanding what you are doing"?
I had put the two listboxes in using the form designer and changed their names to something meaningful, as recommended. I removed them and recreated them because of the problems I was having. I changed the code files because I didn't want to leave them empty, that is, I actually wanted something to occur, for example, when the OK button is clicked. 
As stated in my post, I am using Excel 2002 and VB 6.03 version 1024.
I don't know if your comment about getting VB.Net books was meant to be snide, but I don't see how that would help in this situation, since I am not using VB.Net. I have numerous VBA books from Sams, WROX, Microsoft Press, Que, and M&T books, and have looked through all of them trying to resolve this issue.
Thanks again for your help.

In vb 6.0 with MS Access using adodb.recordset the below sql statement gives error help please
dim sql as string
sql="Select * from table1 Where Replace(Field1,".","")=" & tokenID
set rs=cn.execute(sql)
Error: Unknown function Replace is used
although the above sql statement works fine in MS Access query
|
|
|
|
|
IMO your problem is with the string literals inside the Replace call; try doubling the double quotes in there.

Hello,
I am working with a dataset and I just realized that there is a few methods in vb.net to add a new row to a dataset.
Can I simply add a row in figure 1 instead of creating an explicit dataset and a data table because in design time I created a dataset already. Why do I have to explicitly create a dataset and a table and then a row if I am able to add
a new row with new values with a single line code?
Thanks.
Figure 1.
BPRO.NameTable.Rows.Add("Jashua", "Carla", "Chris")
THE USUAL WAY WAS
Figure 2.
Dim NewDS As New BPRO
Dim Rt As New BPRO.NameTable
Dim NewRow As DataRow = NewDS.Tables("NameTable").NewRow
NewRow("Names") = Trim(UserName.Text.ToUpper)
NewDS.Tables("NameTable").Rows.Add(NewRow)
What a curious mind needs to discover knowledge is noting else than a pin-hole.

As far as I know, it should work. I have used ADO in C++.

I have an object that raises custom events.
I want to put these objects into a List(of MyClass) (not an Array, and not an ArrayList). I'm trying to do this:
Private Sub AddItem()
Dim WithEvents obj As MyClass
obj = New MyClass()
MyList.Add(obj)
End Sub
The IDE is puking on the WithEvents thing (saying it's not a valid declaration in a local variable. How do I have to do this? (In C#, this isn't an issue.)

I suspect the answer is to omit the WithEvent keyword. When you reference an object in the list you can use the AddHandler statement to associate the relevant event(s) with the appropriate event handling routines.
|
|
|
|
|
WithEvents only applies to class or module level declarations. All it is is syntactic sugar for allowing you to use the Handles clause on procedures and have the events wired up for you.
For locally declared instances that exposes events, you just need to wire up the event handlers yourself (and tear them down later) with AddHandler/RemoveHandler.

'cause in C#, you're just wiring everything up yourself anyway. It's really no different in VB.NET.

Hi all.
I want to create a program in which I want to compare hashvalue of an ordinary file and a same ordinary but damaged file so that I could distinct them by using CRC32 algorithm.
If current CRC32 value of a file is not equal to its actual value then it will show a message that file is damaged otherwise file is not damaged.
Suggest me how can I do this (and give me some piece of code to better understand it).
Thanks.

Thanks for your help but I have still some doubt.
That example only explain that how to compute CRC32 hash value of a file but how can I differtiate two same files, one is in good condition and one is damaged or infected by some virus, by computing CRC32 hash values of both files.
Suggest me how to do this.
Thanks.

Uhhh...compare the two hash values??
|
|
|
|
|
Dave K is right. If the two files are identical, they will give the same hash value. If the hash values are different, the files are different. Simple as that.
|
|
|
|

Oopps...sorry for that stupid question, I got the point.
Thanks to all for your help

So...lemme ask you guys this:
I'm trying to automate a [crappy] pivot table [that doesn't belong to me] where the data is time-phased. Meaning, that each week when I get the pivot table, the date range will be different.
So, how would you attack the problem of only viewing the last four weeks of data?
I wrote some simple pivottable code, but need to make it so the dates are non-specific:
Sub DUMMY()
'
' DUMMY Macro
'
'
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Weekend Sunday Date")
.PivotItems("20090802").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090809").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090816").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090823").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090830").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090906").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090913").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090920").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20090927").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20091004").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20091011").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20091018").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20091025").Visible = False
.PivotItems("20091101").Visible = False
End With
End Sub
How would you identify the range of dates and then pick the last four to be visible?
|
|
|
|
|
hi,
instead of writting the date as "20091101" generate the date.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, that's the value thats in the pivot table and I can't change the source data. Ideas on how to get around that one?
----------------------------------
I'm not a programmer by trade, so please don't beat me unmerciful.

How/where do you specify the threading model in a VB.Net app? I tried adding a module with a main() sub and adding the attribute there, but the app never hits this sub.

Set the startup object (in project properties) to "Sub Main".
|
|
|
|
|
If it is a form based application, threading model should be STA and you should not change it as it will break lot of things in Windows Forms.
VB.NET does it automatically for you. If you want to modify something else such as startup form you can do it in the project settings.

Hi All
I've been adding textboxes, numericupandowns, etc. to the dataGridView Column, and everything was working fine. I even successfully added a combobox to the datagridview column.
However, I have hit a brick wall and can't find my way around it.
I am trying to load items into the combobox (based on items from the database), and then add the combobox to the datagridview. Note that each item that is in the datagrid has its own set of items to be added to the combobox, so when I select any item, I want to be able to use the combobox as a drop down list to select from the list of options.
I have implemented the datagridview column for the combobox and named it 'DropDownColumn'.
Also created the cell and editing control named 'DropDownCell' and 'DropDownEditingControl', respectively.
I don't know how to add individual items into each of the comboboxes for the given items.
My code looks like this:
Public Class DropDownColumn
Inherits DataGridViewColumn
Public Event Change(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Public Sub New()
MyBase.New(New DropDownCell())
End Sub
Public Overrides Property CellTemplate() As DataGridViewCell

Return MyBase.CellTemplate
End Get
Set(ByVal value As DataGridViewCell)
If (value IsNot Nothing) AndAlso Not value.GetType().IsAssignableFrom(GetType(DropDownCell)) Then
Throw New InvalidCastException("Must be a DropDownCell")

MyBase.CellTemplate = value

My problem is the ball is moving vertically Its not moving up and down
Thanks

Your code has a lot of problems: you should not unnecessarily use CreateGraphics, you should not draw stuff outside the GUI thread, you should not use Thread.Sleep() inside a painting method, and you should use a timer (preferably a System.Windows.Forms.Timer), to name a few.
Here are some articles you should read:
- crossthreads1[^]
- animation1[^]
PS: as your code doesn't change yValue, the ball will never move vertically.
