A Way To Add A Number With Commas In A Data Part Of A List?
I'm wondering, is there a way I can add ##,##,## into an item inside of a List? So when I select that item, I can use the data part and for example, display it in a messagebox, or a textbox?

For example
"CD Drive 1" would be shown in the List, but 0,1,0 would be in the data part
"CD Drive 2" would be shown in the List, but 0,2,0 would be in the data part

Inserting Commas Into A String
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to assist me in a little dilemna I'm having. I'm a learning beginner and I'm trying to insert a comma every two characters in a text file. I've done this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Open "C:Documents and SettingsDavidDesktopFile1.txt" For Input As #1
Open "C:Documents and SettingsDavidDesktopFile2.txt" For Output As #2

Do Until EOF(1)
Input #1, strData
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To Len(strData) Step 2
stroutput = stroutput & Mid$(strData, i, 2) & IIf(i <> Len(strData) - 1, ",", "")
Next
Write #2, stroutput
Loop

Close #1
Close #2

End Sub

Now that works perfect EXCEPT it stops as soon as it hits a letter because obviously a letter isn't an integer. Does anyone how I could recode that so that it would work with letters too?

Much obliged,
David

Converting String With Commas To Numeric
I looked through other posts, and didn't come accross this situation.

I have the following in my code:


Code:
dblOldPts = Val(arrudtOldLeaders(intCounter + Increment).strPoints)
dblNewPts = Val(arrudtLeaders(intCounter + Increment).strPoints)


Where arrudtOldLeaders(intCounter + Increment).strPoints = "1,105,295"
and arrudtLeaders(intCounter + Increment).strPoints = "1,295,845"

When I use the above formulas with Val, they only return values of 1 each.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Converting A Numeric Value To A String With 1,000 Separator Commas
Hi,

Is there a easy way to convert a number in VBA code to a String, such that a comma is placed to separate groups of 1,000? If not, I'll just have to use loops and the text length property.

Help With Sequential Read And Display Of String That Contains Commas
I am reading a sequential file and the data is displayed in a text box. The problem is the data contains commas the form of the data is OU=us,dc=natest,dc=enttest,dc=company,dc=com.

The display of text stops at the first comma. HELP

Here is a short view of the code:
---------------------------------------------
Private Sub Form_Initialize()

' Open file and read information
Dim intctr As Integer
Dim ReadValue As String
Dim intmsg As Integer
Dim intFNum As Integer

' strip out unneeded data so you have just the Value from XPvar.bat
intFNum = FreeFile
Open "x:XPvar.bat" For Input As #intFNum
For intctr = 1 To 10
Input #intFNum, ReadValue
If intctr = 9 Then
'data stops displaying after the first comma
OUInput.Text = Mid(ReadValue, 8, 200)
Next intctr
Close #intFNum
End Sub

I am a beginner at this whole VB thing so go easy. The VB 6 is 21 days is my only reference book...

How To Count The Number Of Characters?
how do i limit the number of characters the user can type into a textbox?

i tried:

Private Sub txtTestLimit_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Dim F As Form
Set F = Forms!FormTest
If Len(F!txtTestLimit) = 20 Then
MsgBox "Your message has exceeded the masimum length."
End If
End Sub

but it didn't work.

then i decided that i wanted to try to display the number of characters typed into textbox "A" onto textbox "B" as they were being typed: sumthing like the online sms application on this website: http://home.singtel.com/consumer/msg...ternet_sms.asp

i tried:

Private Sub txtTestLimit_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Dim F As Form
Set F = Forms!FormTest
F!txtCount = Len(F!txtTestLimit)
End Sub

but it didn't work too... am i using the correct event; "On Key Up"? Anyone here who can help me pleeeaaaseee...

Count The Number Of Rows
how to count the number of rows in a text file really fast?
currently, I have developed an app that does this by reading each character in the line and then skip the line and incrementing a counter. It works very well. But the file I will count is a HUGE file, about 400MB file. Currently, a 280MB takes about 4 minutes.

I am using FSO object in my app. Therefore,

Do While Not stream1.AtEndOfStream
strPlain = stream1.Read(1)
stream1.SkipLine
If strPlain <> "" Then
intCount = intCount + 1
End If
Loop

Any ideas?

Count The Number Of Letters ..
hi guys,

i have a textbox on my form.
i know i can set the 'maxlength' property to say 255, and that will limit the size that can be entered to 255 characters/spaces..
what i would like to do, is when the user reaches 255 characters/spaces, for a message box to pop up that says something like "You have reached the 255 character limit "..
i am writing a pager interface and 255 characters is the limit per page...

I put the following code in the Text1_Change event, but nothing happened...

If Len(Text1.Text) > 255 Then MsgBox "You have reached the 255 character limit for paging"


any ideas ?

thanks,

Count The Number Of Downloads
Hi fellow Developers,

I have a freeware that I wanted to post onto my website. BUT i want to be able to know the number of times this freeware was downloaded. Is there a way to do it in Normal HTML.

I would think thats not possible with HTML, so I think ASP is the best bet. Would anyone out there tell me how should i do that in ASP ? Which ASP objects do i use, if any ?

If I want the users to enter their email address before downloading, how do i do that too ? I believe a database would be needed here.

I would appreciate a few useful pointers and then I would be able to take it from there ? Thank You.

Count The Number Of Checkboxes In Userform
Hi All,

Just one last question for the moment. I have stolen this code from Insomniac (Cheers Dude!!!) on an old post:


Code:
cnt = 0
'Count CheckBoxes
For Each cbx In ActiveSheet.OLEObjects
If TypeName(cbx.Object) = "CheckBox" Then
cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next

What I want to do is change it so that it will count the number of checkboxes in a userform. I've tried this


Code:
cnt = 0
For Each cbx In userform1.OLEObjects
If TypeName(cbx.Object) = "CheckBox" Then
cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next

the code doesn't recognise OLEObjects. Is there an alternative command that will work for a userform? If not any other ways I can do this?

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help.

Making A Random Number Count Down.
Ok this is basically a mathematical error on my part but anyway here's what I want it to do basically:

I have a random number chosen, between 50 and 60,
(If anyone could tell me how to limit the length of decimals to be only .00 (as in 2 decimals) that would be great as well.)
Basically, these are seconds until something happens, but I also want a timer to display to the user the seconds counting down, but I cant figure out how I can make it go down to 0 in x amount of seconds.

Like if the number 55.3424879 is chosen, I want it to constantly count down, and when 55.3424879 seconds goes by I want it to reach 0 as the action happens.

Count Line And Character Number
greetings, all~

I am practising UI Controls of VB .NET under VS .NET 2002 environment by creating an app that simulates Windows Notepad.

I've tried many search combinations in this forum and others to try to get the answer to this problem: how do I determine the line number and the character number of my flashing "|" character in a rich text box?

This feature can be found by turning on Notepad's Status Bar (View > Status Bar), and it's an XP version that I am using here, so maybe some other versions of Notepad don't have this feature.

Up to this point, I know how to track the total characters of a rich text box by richTextBox.TextLength property, and the total lines of a rich text box by richTextBox.Lines().Length property. I also know that there is this vbCrLf character that I can use. So, the problem now is how to track down the current position of the flashing "|" character in a rich text box.

That, of course, is necessary in my logic of determiming the line and character number. If there's any other way, I will be more than glad to learn about it.

Thanks~

List Count Gives A Legative Number??
Hey guys I have a textfile that loads to a listbox, after it loads it gives me a listcount which is fine and works good.

But I have a button to load another textfile to the listbox. So it adds more items to the listbox, after which it does list count. But what is weird is it gives me a negative number???

the button that adds more uses this code..


VB Code:
Timer3.Enabled = False'lstBlacklist.ClearDim intFile As IntegerDim strLine As StringintFile = FreeFileOpen App.path & "Blacklistspyware.txt" For Input As intFile Do Until EOF(intFile)    Line Input #intFile, strLine    lstBlacklist.AddItem strLineLoopClose intFileTimer3.Enabled = TrueLabel58.Caption = "Number of IP Addresses Blocked: " & lstBlacklist.ListCountLabel50.Caption = "Loaded"


Why would it give a negative number? You add a positive number to another its supposed to give a positive number!!

Lucky 7 Count Number Program
I am making a program in Visual Basic 2005 Express

I currently have 3 text boxes that all generate random numbers between 1 - 7
I have 2 other boxes one is suppose to keep a count of the number of 7's that appear when the user presses the command button to "spin" the numbers... and the other to count the number of spins used during one game.

I can't work out the coding for this couting process and count of how many spins have been used during one game

If it is possible, could someone help me with this problem?
I know its really simple but my visual basic knowledge is too low

Big thank you in advanced


* Im stuck on question 5 & 6



5.The program must keep a count of the number of 7s(number of wins) and display the total number after each spin. Eg: if you have seven displayed for the first time your display count should be 1, if next spin produces another seven – the count will be 2 and so on.
6.The program must display number of spins used.
