Maybe it interprets 0 as Null?
Sorry but I don't know nearly enough to properly answer your question.

Please edit your OP to remove the code block. That would make it easier to read.

A couple of questions you might want to answer to let us help you better:

Where do you want to store the database?
What does the application do? What kind of use do you expect?
I ask these things because if you want your database to be constantly available and on your PC it might slow your PC down.

I'm sorry I can't provide you with an answer, but I hope the next person will be able to do that. Editing your original post to answer these questions might help that person.

That link seems very helpful. The code doesn't seem to do what's suggested on the other forums though.
Darn ListBoxes, I would just avoid using them lol. Pro approach. Challenge Avoided!

I see now you should have included a line like this (somewhere in your Public Class Form1):

Dim Timer1 As New Timer

And I would recommend setting the interval before enabling the timer.

Nice response. I wonder if there would be a way to close all existing messageboxes before showing a new one. That would prevent the creation of a stack of messageboxes (what is warned for in Solution 1 by SA).
I've tried working out how to close all existing messageboxes but didn't succeed in learning how to do that.

Code-wise this is as far as I got:
For Each Item in Controls
If Item.GetType [something here] Then
'' Closing of MessageBox here
End If
Next

If anyone could explain to me how a MessageBox could/should/would be closed (in code), I would greatly appreciate that.

In response to your question about ProcessLine:
ProcessLine seems to be a custom Sub here.
Crappy example to point out the obvious:

Dim TotalChars As Integer = 0
Private Sub ProcessLine(ByVal LineOfText As String)
TotalChars = TotalChars + LineOfText.Count
End Sub

In this case ProcessLine would help you count the total amount of chars in your file.
Hope that was helpful.

Agreed.

@ sarathsprakash: It would be very helpful if you could show us what you have so far (code) so we can help you from there.

Awesome, that solved my problem. Thanks for explaining too.

Is this because my program will eventually use more memory if I keep declaring new variables and objects each time (for example) I call a function?

I'm not to worried about the "random sequence" not really being random. The only thing that bothers me really is that I get two identically shuffled decks of cards. I was wondering if there was an easy way to make sure the two decks end up being shuffled differently from each other. Maybe by taking the default time as a seed for one sequence and the time + 1 as a seed for the other.

I'm sorry but I don't know how to work with classes myself, I'll have to look into that :)
I thought maybe you had the same assignment as I once had in class(school) so that's why I got confused

OneInNineMillion 11-Dec-12 5:52am View

Is this a homework assignment? You're supposed to create your own calculator with basic functionality?
I know I've had that assignment a while back.
If this is the case, please give it your best and feel free to return here anytime with any questions/problems you run into.

sender refers to the button. solved it myself through simple logic. Sorry for bothering you guys. I need to be less lazy...

OneInNineMillion 11-Dec-12 4:38am View

hmm. Me refers to the form, not the button..

OneInNineMillion 10-Dec-12 7:20am View

Awesome, I'm so going to mess with the order of things there :P
I've run out of questions at the moment, so ...
A final thanks to you and goodbye for now

OneInNineMillion 10-Dec-12 6:35am View

Thanks again, I learned something today... I now looked at the the error message's exception detail, kind of understand it. so I have another question: I saw a line in the stackTrace which ended like this: ...\Form1.vb:line 75
another line in the stackTrace ended like this: ...\Form1.Designer.vb:line 103
I don't know where to look for that second (Designer) line in my files/wherever

Also, I 'fixed' my problem with a boolean and a if-statement so the sub triggered by the SelectedValue changed event doesn't do anything.

I now understand why I was getting the error message, and can start trying to further fix things. Thanks a lot for your help!

Thanks for the Reply. I don't know anything about the constructor and I have a question. Could it be that the constructor (I suppose it 'constructs' the form before the Load event is even initiated) triggers a SelectedValue or CheckedChanged event?

I'm driving myself mad with this sites controls lol! I just hope I put it in the right place this time.. gosh..
