You have the other responses also, but now there is the new VS2010 way;
Public Property theProperty as boolean = false
Thats it, all the other Get, Set and local private variable are all taken care of under the hood. [which you can still use if you want, or depending on scenario] The local private variable will be named _theProperty by default, and accessible by that name.

My program consist of a user interface and a separate class that handles the merging of data files. The class is called Merge and when it is done merging the data it raises the event MergeFinished. I declared the following delegates:
Dim WithEvents Merge As clsMerge 'Class that handles the merging of data
Delegate Sub MergeFinishedDelegate() 'MergeFinished Delegate
Private m_MergeFinishedDelegate As MergeFinishedDelegate
Now the sub that handles the MergeFinished event is as follows:
Private Sub MergeFinished() Handles Merge.MergeFinished
If Me.InvokeRequired Then
m_MergeFinishedDelegate = AddressOf Me.MergeFinished
Me.Invoke(m_MergeFinishedDelegate)
Else
Me.Enabled = True
Status.Text = "Merge Finished!"
If Settings.AutoSwitch Then
Dim newFrm As New frmGenerateReports
newFrm.Show()
newFrm.RecieveData(JBNArray)
Me.Close()
End If
End If
End Sub
However the Me.Invoke(m_MergeFinishedDelegate) has an error of "Input string was not in the correct format". This function has been working fine and now it doesn't. I haven't made any changes to this method so I don't know why it broke. Any suggestions?
EDIT: After stepping through the code, this is what I discovered. When the event is first raised, the IF part of the statement is run and the Me.Invoke code works fine. However, when the newFrm.Show() is called then the "Input string was not in the correct format" is thrown within the IDE. Why is the debugger jumping back to the IF part of the statement? And if I keep stepping through, it just loops (calls the invoke, goes the the ELSE statement, and once newFrm.Show() is called the "Input string was not..." is thrown again and the frmGenerateReports is never shown)

Hi,
I don't think the Me.Invoke line is causing the problem; what it does is cause a thread switch, so your breakpoint/single-stepping debugging techniques probably got confused. I would suggest you put one big try-catch inside sub MergeFinished(), which then shows the Exception.ToString() that is probably occuring. My guess is something actually goes wrong inside RecieveData()

I have an access table containing several records. Infact records of universities alongwith their fee structure.
The task is to sort out the universities according to a given range and display that list in VB 2008 form.
Has anybody got any reference regarding this?

This sounds like homework and this little "how-to" has been documented hundreds of thousands of times. All it takes is a little Googling: "vb.net get data from access[^]".

What do you mean by merging with one another? they can't do that.

Some suggestions:
1. Put your code between <pre></pre> tags for readability; use the "code block" button in this editor.
2. Tell us what the errors are, we cannot see the output of your compilation from here, nor can we guess what might be going wrong.
It's time for a new signature.

on top of what Richard said, don't enter that amount of code all at once; start with a subset and get that working; working more incrementally will save you lots of time, so you can learn while doing, and not repeat earlier mistakes. I compile and run every two minutes, and I don't add code when what I have isn't working already to some extent.

It's a crc[^]-check.
Val returns the numerical content of a string
CStr does the same thing as the .ToString() method
Asc returns the ASCII value of a character
Mid returns a subsection of a string
Mod divides two numbers and returns the remainder

Google is your friend, also there are lots of articles, go inspect the archives here.
And why VB6?
Such ancient hieroglyphs have long since been replaced with VB.NET, it is easier to do mail with that.
eg just use mailto: command.

What is the point of answering the OP in such a fashion ? Do you honestly think that your answer is going to help the OP, or CodeProject for that matter, with your reply, seriously. Some people have the unenviable task of maintaining legacy apps written in out of date languages. This has nothing to do with their skill as a programmer, or their value as a Code Project member, just a basic fact of life. The OP asked a genuine question (to which you obviously have no knowledge of the language he is using or the methods that he is trying to use ), he also showed us his code he working on, and explained his problem in terms anyone could understand. I realise that you are an accountant, and not a programmer, but if you go through your answers that you are providing on this forum, I feel that maybe until Code Project opens up an accounting Forum, you should stick to the lounge where your contributions are much more appreciated. I realise you are one of the more popular memebers here, and that I will probably be blazed by Liquid Nitrogen for even daring to express my opinion, but I really don't care. It is answers like this that are pushing me away from this Site, and it is unnecessary.

If the OP goes and searches google / CP for the answer it has helped him.
zimvbcoder wrote: Some people have the unenviable task of maintaining legacy apps written in out of date languages.
True, but DD asked why he was using VB6. In my opinion a valid question. If the OP responds with 'it's a legacy program' then we can move on. But if he responds with 'it's the only thing I know for this new program' we can tell him not to use it and spend some time learning .NET since VB6 isn't supported anymore.

My supply of liquid Nitrogen has run out so...  . Seriously tho I don't think your gonna get flamed for just expressing your opinion.
As to being pushed away from this site, why? If the answer(s) you get don't apply or answer the question ask for more explanation. If it was insulting vote appropriately (also if not insulting)
If the answer is truly so bad that you feel personally attacked go to 'site bugs / suggestions' and ask Chris to have a look at it.

I can understand where the sentiment is coming from; nearly every VB6-question has two or three answers stating that one should "move on", whilst the programmer rarely has a choice in the language being used.

It's no longer actively supported by Microsoft. The community however, is a somewhat different beast. I'd even support 16-bit Delphi apps if required

True, but it doesn't hurt to ask why he is using VB6, like I said if the answer is, it's the only thing I know for this new program, then we can tell him to move on.
I understand supporting legacy program's all to well (have one left that I haven't converted yet so ...) but new program's shouldn't be written in vb6

Efficiency. If you teach a man to make fire, then he can set others' around him on fire

That would be on the assumption that there's an option. He might have the time to learn something new, or perhaps one of the managers doesn't like the idea of a .NET framework on their clients.

I think you have over reacted to Dave's post as his points are valid. I also do think you are right in what you have said and Dave could have phrased him point better.
Yes, VB6 is effectively obsolete, and has been since the release of VB.NET in 2002.
"I'm coding for a legacy VB6 system", is not necessarily a valid excuse for coding in VB6. If I was adding a new module to a legacy VB6 project, I would write the new module in .NET and make it COM visible, especially where the .NET functionality, for the task required, is far better than that of VB.6, which in the case of email, it is.
At the end of the day, as a programmer/developer, the language you should use is that that best fits the project requirements.
