There's so many problem with this, I don't know where to start other than the trash can. So, scrap everything from intIndex = strNames.GetLowerBound(0) down to End Sub.
I'm going to write any code for you because this screams "homework". What would you learn if I just wrote the code for you??
You need to create a loop than goes from the LowerBound, which you already have, to the Upperbound, which you already know how to get. You already have the variable that's going to track where you are in the arrays you're looking at, intIndex.
Inside this loop is where you check one index for the gender in every array position. If you find an M in the strGender array at the position indexed by intIndex, you just need to add the name from the strNames array to the ListBox, which you already know how to do.
When you get to the end of the loop, you're done. Oh! You don't need the intGender variable - get rid of it.

This is my homework. I tried really hard to follow your instructions and you've helped immensly, but I'm still having trouble with one thing. I was able to make all of the names display, but I couldn't figure out how to get just the male names to display. Now I've got it displaying a place holder for each male name (instead of all names) but now it's not displaying the actual name. Here is what I have: But it just displays String[]Array instead of the name. I'm not sure how to fix it. Do you have time to help me? I've always figured out the code in the other assignments but this one has me pulling my hair out. Any help is greatly appreciated. 
Public Class Form1
' Declare and initialize the name array
Dim strNames() As String = {"John", "Paul", "Mary", "Jane", "Peter", "Sam", "Andrew", _
"Laura", "Juan", "Rachel", "Clifford", "Thomas", "Rebecca", "Susan", "Roberto", _
"Stefano", "Sara", "Jean", "Fred", "Roseann", "Alan", "Sally", "Dean", "Karen", "Carol"}
' Declare gender
Dim strGender() As String = {"M", "M", "F", "F", "M", "M", "M", "F", "M", "F", "M", "M", _
"F", "F", "M", "M", "F", "F", "M", "F", "M", "F", "M", "F", "F"}
Private Sub cmdBoys_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdBoys.Click
'Declare variable for boy names
Dim intIndex As Integer
'Set the index to the lower bound
intIndex = strNames.GetLowerBound(0)
'Display Boy names
For intIndex = 0 To strNames.GetUpperBound(0)
If strGender(intIndex) = "M" Then
lstNames.Items.Add(strNames)
End If
Next
End Sub

I was able to figure it out. I know what piece I was missing. Thank you so much for your help. I appreciate you not writing the code, but just steering me in the right direction. I'll keep this site in mind for future assignments.

Like Dave said, all of this sucks. Create a struct that contains the two bits of data you need, and a single array of the struct. If two pieces of data belong together, put them together.

I have so far been using Using in the following way.
Using swOutputWriter as New StreamWriter(file, whatever)
swOutputWriter.Writeline(line)
End Using but today I saw the following
Dim swOutputWriter as StreamWriter
Using swOutputWriter
swOutputWriter.Writeline(line)
End Using Are both correct? If the 2nd is correct, is it also as safe?

There's actually a serious bug in the second example, but they boil down to exactly the same code:
Dim swOutputWriter As StreamWriter
swOutputWriter = New StreamWriter(file,whatever)
Using swOutputWriter
....
End Using
They are both correct and safe...

Oh yes I missed the New portion.
Thanks...
One more though, if you create it a new instance of that object and then use the surrounding "Using/End Using" later, is that object now gone and will need to be re-instantiated?

Yep. The object that's specified on the Using line will automatically be Disposed when execution ever, for ANY reason, leaves the Using block. If you still need it beyond that, maybe you shouldn't be using Using, or you'll have to expand the scope of the Using block to encompass the code you need.
Using was put in so you didn't have to make absolutely sure you disposed an object in the event you forgot to or an error occured in your code, forcing it to take an execution path you didn't anticipate.

what is max rows we can have on msflexgrid
Develop2Program & Program2Develop
|
|
|
|
|
Theoretically, the maximum number is the maximum long value - 2,147,483,647.
In practice, it will depend on the resources available to you - I ran a quick test and was able to get 145,000 rows.

The real question is why would you want to show that many? The scroll wheel on a mouse is only good for 5,000 miles.

Hi,
I am using the following to redirect the output of a dos command to a richtextbox but anytime I try run it to get the directory listing of a large CD nothing happens but if there is only one file on the CD it works. Can anyone help.
Dim myProcess As Process = New Process
Dim prgOutput As String ' Output from DOS program
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "c:\dir.bat" 'Full pathname to including file name
myProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True ' Does not create a window DOS program
myProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False ' Must be false to redirect output
myProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True
myProcess.Start() ' Start the DOS program
myProcess.WaitForExit() ' Wait until it completes before moving on
prgOutput = myProcess.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd ' Get the DOS output
rtbOutput.Text = prgOutput
I am using a .bat file which has the following commands:
@ECHO OFF
d:
dir /A /S /O:GNE
c:
Running the .bat file directly from the command prompt works on the disc with loads of files
Thanks

Just got VB 2005 and wonder, How do you add code snippets to the list.
Also can anyone recommend any web sites for code snippets?
Thanks

All you have to do is type "vb.net 2005 code snippets" into Google.

Have you tried typing "code snippets" into the Index tab "Look for" box in the MSDN Library installed with Visual Studio? There's tons of information on it. Index entries include "creating", "creating for XML files", "customizing", "deleting", "finding", "inserting", "managing", ... Complete with all kinds of "How To's".

What have you tried ? You can't put an image in a textbox, but you can use Bitmap.FromFile to get a bitmap from the path selected, or FromStream if the dialog offers a stream. A picture box is the easy way to show an image.

i use following code:
--------------------------------------
private sub ShareFolder()
Dim ct As New DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" +
SystemInformation.ComputerName + "/LanmanServer")
ct.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.Signing Or _
AuthenticationTypes.Sealing Or _
AuthenticationTypes.Secure
ct.Username = Nothing
ct.Password = Nothing
Dim shares As DirectoryEntries = ct.Children
Dim share As DirectoryEntry =
ct.Children.Add("foldersharename", "fileshare")
share.Properties("path").Add("c:\new folder")
share.CommitChanges()
end sub
-------------------------------------
After calling ShareFolder function,"c:\new folder" folder was shared.
But when opening the folder from any other computer than mine through
LAN (Local Area Network), "\\Tulgaa\foldersharename is not accessible. You
might not have permission to user this network resource. Contact the
administrator of this server ot find out if you have access
permissions" msg is thrown. When I share a folder manually from
Explorer, all is fine.
How to solve this problem, tell me please !!!

If your example code is accurate, then you've shared out the folder "C:\New Folder" with a share name of "foldersharename". You then tried to open the folder from another machine using the wrong name. You have to use the sharename in the UNC path, not the folder name.
\\server\sharename\subfolder\subfolder\file

i tried to open the folder from another machine using correct path which was "\\server\foldersharename".
i'm trying to share a folder by another way. code here: >>
Sub MyShare()<br />

End Function
But steel that message appeared. When I tried to open the folder from Windows Explorer from other machines, message appears again. My user is of Administrator group and has no password. When I share a folder manually from Explorer, all is fine. What is wrong with me?

Windows file sharing hates blank passwords. Try setting yourself a password and try it again.
