That's VB 6 code & I already saw that before posting my question

Original post stated VB.NET 2003 code only & already checked Google
Dec 27 '06 #3
VB6 code isnt hard to convert to VB 1.1 or 2.0. most of that code should work
in 2003 or 2005, except the get and set. try it out first and see what happens

But my original question is VB.NET 2003 & I had already seen that code when
searching Google

Don't anyone actually read the post properly these days?

Since when in VB.NET 2003 C#/C++/J#/J++/HTML/Javascript/VB6..? It isn't

Its like asking for a translation of something in English & the replier
posting it in Chinese. Same rules, different situation
Dec 29 '06 #5
Again with the attitude!

For someone to hand you the code on a plate, they would have to convert the
only sample you seem to be able to find to YOUR particular flavour of .NET
and seeing as how trivial that particular conversion actually is, that isn't
going to happen.

If you do it youself, then not only will you learn how to go about
translating code from another 'language', you will probably also learn what
the code is actually doing (or supposed to do), You will probably also learn
some techniques that you might not have used before and you may stumble
across a better/more efficient/more elegant way of solving the problem.

You cannot code yourself I see

You try to advise, but you have no idea I see

Keep your opinions to yourself & do yourself a favour & learn how to be a
programmer

As you see, I searched Google for VB.NET & it never came up with anything

Please do us a favour & leave the newsgroup because I have never seen once
you make a valid contribution

I'm sure Stephany is able to defend herself, however your statement is
totally invalid. If you care to look, Stephany has contributed some
real gems to this NG in the past, whereas I only see bad attitude from
your posts!

It's obvious that you really just wanted someone to write your code,
well I don't think you're going to find that here, particularly with
your attitude.

The link to FreeVBcode.com was entirely valid, and would be easily
converted to .NET if you only took the time to read it. If you had
problems after that then I'm sure people would have gladly helped if you
had of POLITELY asked.

For my money, you're not much different to Aaron and MP and this will be
the last time I care to look at anything you write!

He's posted negative stuff about Cor and Herfried when they
don't give him the exact answer he's looking for. I guess it was
Stephany's turn.

Newbie Coder, I've said this to you once, and I'll say it again:
Gettings answers in this newsgroup is a privilege, not a right.
People are not *obligated* to go off and spend time coming up with
a solution for your problem. You've been given part of a solution.
Can you really not convert code from VB6 to VB.net?
Heck, run it through the converter and see what you get, then
post questions asking for specific help. That would get you
farther than condemning the very people who can help you the most.

You're damn right about that! :-)

I can't understand the rudeness and arrogance of what's been posted by
some individuals lately.

I know we should just ignore them, but maybe if their parents didn't
ignore their behaviour while they were growing up and gave them a clip
under the ear when it was deserved, we wouldn't have to put up with
their lack of common courtesy today!

HYep .. HYep .. HYep ....

My children had learned that that sort of behaviour was unacceptable by the
time they were 4.

My grandchildren are still learning it, but none of them are 4 as yet.

But, don't worry, I'm just as capable of spitting my dummy as anybody but I
like to think it requires a tad more provocation than some of these people
have shown thus far.

I do try to ignore it but I do worry that visitors to this group (especially
those new to the game) might read a few isolated posts that contain
'allegations' that appear to be unrefuted and get the wrong idea. (The old
situation of humam nature where those who make the most noise tend to get
listened to the most.)

Unfortunately, it's just another case of a few trying to spoil things for
the rest.

Some real gems. Lets see the level of your coding Stephany.

I used this Newsgroup for the past 4 years & I haven't seen you in here. Yes
I had a year break so, I know you not an old timer

I will always code a reply if I have the time... But that is the difference
of a coder & a person who says they are good & gives mouth but nothing maybe
a Google link

By the way Stephany:

I have written the code now for what I wanted. Its not complete, but almost
& has more functionality then I originally wanted & used the Windows 2003
SDK to do it.

One up on you because you cannot even write in one language -

Well, it would be nice to see how long it takes you to provide a precis of
what this does and interesting to see your version of it:

Private Sub chkItemID_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
EventArgs)

If chkItemID.Checked Then
txtItemID.Visible = False
cboItemID.Visible = True
If txtConnectionString.TextLength 0 AndAlso cboTable.SelectedItem
IsNot Nothing AndAlso cboKeyColumn.SelectedItem IsNot Nothing Then
Application.DoEvents()
Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor
cboItemID.Items.Clear()
Dim _con As New OleDbConnection(txtConnectionString.Text)
Dim _com As New OleDbCommand("select " &
CType(cboKeyColumn.SelectedItem, String) & " from " &
CType(cboTable.SelectedItem, String) & " where " &
CType(cboKeyColumn.SelectedItem, String) & " is not null", _con)
_con.Open()
Dim _drdr As OleDbDataReader =
_com.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection )
While _drdr.Read
cboItemID.Items.Add(_drdr.GetString(0))
End While
_drdr.Close()
If cboItemID.Items.Count 0 Then cboItemID.SelectedIndex = 0
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default
End If
cboItemID.Focus()
Else
cboItemID.Visible = False
txtItemID.Visible = True
txtItemID.Focus()
End If

So allow me to interject my own logic into this conversation...

You ID yourself as 'Newbie Coder' and come into this newsgroup asking for
assistance with your projects, demanding that people provide you with their
own code to a 'problem' that you are having. If not given what you want, you
then berate the poster like a child throwing a tantrum. When called on your
behavior, you state that...
I used this Newsgroup for the past 4 years & I haven't seen you in here.
However, going back over the last four years of headers in this newsgroup,
you don't appear one single time until 11/24/2006? That is your second lie,
unless you are using an alias and you are only here trolling for your own
unknown reasons.

Stephany has been a great help in this newsgroup and I appreciate the fact
that she hasn't just given me the answer each and every time. She HAS,
however, responded quite well - in code - when it was necessary. She has
also responded in a timely fashion to YOUR challenge, but I see that you
have failed to respond at all. This only leads me to believe that you, sir,
or maam, are a fraud. Unwilling to do your own work and holding on to your
own job by the skin of your teeth, if you even are a programmer. Welcome to
the killfile!

I don't think Newbie Coder is quite on the level as MP or AK. I don't
really get the sense that he's purposely being a butthead the way I
do with the other two. But if he keeps going the way he's going,
nobody's going to respond to his requests for help any more.

I could just see you in a job interview. Let's say someone
asked you the elevator question (how would you write the code
to run an elevator).

NewbieCoder: I'd ask someone else for an answer, and if they didn't
tell me, I'd call them names and deride them.

Stephany: [insert complete answer, with full designs for the
classes, database, and UI]

Just judging from Stephany's posts, I'd hire her in a heartbeat.

I'm not sure what he meant either, but let me assure you that New Year
arrives here at the same time every year give or take a leap day and/or a
leap second here and there :)

Well, that's what *I* thought. Then I thought, well, technically
there's a Chinese New Year, but I didn't think you were Chinese,
or lived in China. And then I thought maybe he meant just because
pictures of NZ look beautiful on film and in the movies, it doesn't
mean they are in person. And then I thought, I'm spending way too
much time thinking about this...

It's probably to do with the fact that NZ is just west of the
International Date Line and is one of the first countries (of
significance) to see in the New Year. Mind you, the time might be ahead
but the year is still 1955!!!!! :-) :-) :-)

In that case, you'd better take all the code examples I've posted and get
them cast in gold or something.

I must be the only programmer in the world who hasn't been born yet.

Just as a point of interest, in 1939, we declared war on Germany 12 hours
before Britain did, if Britain had chickend out at the last minute we would
ahve been in deep doo-doos :)

Robin,

The Chinese New Year is only an holliday it is not an official calendar day.
In China is the same calendar used as by the majority in the world, the
Gregorian.

What I wanted to say was that I have the idea, that in those countries down
under not everything comes the first exept New Years day (I thought 14hours
earlier than for me). However I don't know that for sure and therefore it is
not right to write that. Especially because there is already for some years
somebody active in these Net newsgroup who will direct comment that.
Therefore I deleted that part and became the sentence even more difficult to
understand.

I wanted to write it in a negative way otherwise I could have written: There
you can be sure that you are with those who celebrate new year day the
first.

No probs Steph, the ANZAC alliance would have kicked-in and she'd be

The link to FreeVBcode.com was entirely valid, and would be easily

had of POLITELY asked.
Absolutely, I looked at the code too - it's trival to convert. In fact,
glacing at it 90%+ of the code should "just work" in .NET. Perhaps all of
it...

I knew China used the calendar that most of us use (who doesn't, by
the way?), but Chinese New Year is still a big deal, at least here
in the San Francisco Bay Area. (I can't speak for China, because
I haven't been there.)

I thought I understood what you meant, but I wasn't sure about
how it pertained to my saying I always wanted to visit NZ because
it looked beautiful in the pictures I've seen. Perhaps it will
always be a mystery.

Have a happy new year! It's Dec. 30th here, so it's Dec. 31st where
you are, which means both of us still have New Year's Eve to look
forward to. :-)
