Hello Friends Please check the code below. One in C# and other in VB .Net In C# I am not able to access a static property by an instance variable, but in VB I can do it easily. The Error is Static member 'ClassInCS.ABC.MyInt' cannot be accessed with an instance reference; qualify it with a type name

Hi all, I am wondering why string's are not true objects?.... Let me explain... If i write the code Dim x1 as String = "veg" Dim x2 as String = "veg" If x1 = x2 then

In the main program I check to see if a certain form has been disposed. Does it make sense in that form's FormClosed event to do: Me.Dispose to make sure it is disposed the next time I check. Or is that automatic? Thanks

Hello All, I've been developing a VB.NET app that requires the use of a DB. Up to now, I've been using Access. It's a bit slow, but everything works. I'm at a point now where I need to decide if I should stay with Access or move the DB to SQL. I'm trying to come up with a list of Pros/Cons for such a move. My list is a bit lopsided, as I...

Hi there, This might sound like a silly question but, technically could an image object be used for any image format? For example if I were to make plugins for my application, could they be made to return a specific image format as an image object, such as PSD (Only for viewing purposes). Thanks in advance Nick.

Hi All! I think I discovered a possible improvement on .NET Framwork's TRY...CATCH...END TRY statement. I guess most developers might also have been discovered that at some point in their .NET development process but continued to ignore the problem due to their workloads. The word is RETRY. Consider the following...

Why would you choose SQL Express (which requires an installed application to work) over the simplicity of an Access database which has no dependencies?

Hi What are the advantages actually achieved of managed code? I am not talking of theory but in reality. Thanks Regards

Hi, I start a new thread about a discussion from yesterday (or for some of us this morning). It was a not so nice discussion about dynamically removing controls from a panel or what ever. It started by an example from me, that was far from complete and with typing errors, but basically it had the meaning to show that removing controls...

In some recent posts, I've seen people who seem to be waxing nostalgic with respect to the "ease of use" of Visual Basic 6. I can't quite put my finger on it, but they seem to be implying that VB6 was simpler to use than VB.NET, that it was somehow easier to write programs in VB6 than in VB.NET. I have to admit I'm astonished by this...

So after three years of working in .NET and stubbornly holding on to my old hungarian notation practices--- I resolved to try to rid myself of the habit. Man, I gotta say that it is liberating!!! I love it. At first I struggled with how to name controls. I tried to keep some sort of notation with them... but I threw that away too!!! I now...

Is there a performance difference between this: \\\ Dim i As Integer For i = 0 to myObject.Controls.Count - 1 myObject.Controls(i) = ... Next /// and this:

This individual is stealing other peoples code and claiming it as his own. The proof is when I asked him to explain his code he would not. For proof view these threads in dotnet.languages.vb Giving Back(Thank You) scorpion53061 Straighten This Out....

Hello, I would like to ask you this question. I am experienced in programming in VBA and I want to upgrade my knowledge to Visual Studio 2005 now. I hesitate whether to aim to VB or C#. Since I am familiar with VBA I would like to choose VB but I heart from my colleagues that VB is a "dead" language and it will probably not be included in...

I hear people say not to multipost, does these mean not to ask the same question in another group or to submit the question to all the groups via the same submission, with multiple newsgroups in the "send to" box? Just a curious question from someone who has only googled and altavista'd since the beginning of time. Jeff

Someone can explain me why to use property get and property set to access a value in a class, insted of access the value directly? What's the usefulness of property statements in VB.NET? Thanks

A co-worker where I work is proposing all future code devopment be done in Visual C#. Here is his assessment of VB: VB.NET is hack as far as the CLR(Common Language Runtime) goes. It was retrofited into the .Net framework for those people who simply don't, and do not care to, understand object oriented programming. Quite a few of it's...

Is there a way, with VS 2005 and FX 2.0, to read a given inbox? I need to write a 'monitor' program and my boss is convinced, as is always his first gut reaction, that we need to go buy a 3rd-party package to just read an inbox. He may be right this time, but that's not usually my first gut reaction--we've had too many good employees around...

I am relatively new to .Net, but have been using VB and C/C++ for years. One of the drawbacks with VB6 and earlier was the difficulty in casting a 'record' to a different 'shape' so one could perform different manipulations on it. For example, I have a complex data structure, which I can represent in a VB6 TYPE declaration, but I cannot...

When declaring an integer, you can specify the size by using int16, int32, or int64, with plain integer being int32. Is integer the accepted default in the programming community? If so, is there a way to remove the ones with size predefined from the autolisting of types when I am declaring something? -- To Email Me, ROT13 My Shown Email...

When I declare a reference variable I initialize it to Nothing. Now I'm wondering if that best for String variables - is "" better? With Nothing I assume no memory is set aside nor GC'ed But with "" it is - correct? The system seems to handle a null the same as "".

Hello, I need a good help/tutorial for VB, please (I preffer *.chm help file). Also : for the function : now() in VBScript for getting the current time, what is the counterpart function of VB ? Thanks :)

I need to find some documents/research for my manager about VB.NET v C# use. I've noticed that there are many more people using C# than VB.NET, that there seem to be more job vacancies specifying C# and projects written with it. I would basically like any links you might have to articles with non-anecdotal evidence for usage patterns, if...
