I have thought about this, but I know it will cost me my job (if I knew I could get away with it I would probably do it :->. Once, he actually "bitched" at me for putting code in a Try....Catch block, saying that an error couldn't possibly happen in that function and that I needed to remove it, to which I replied "Assumptions are the mother of all f**k ups".
He has a bad habit of assuming something cant happen, or that the user cant possibly do something to raise an error. No matter how hard I've tried to explain this he just wont listen, but hey in the past 4 months he's had over 20 "trouble tickets" for the processes he's coded, and I've had 2. Maybe someday he'll grow out of his arrogance and start seeing things in the right light

I remember a guy on a development team I was part of yelling that at one of the sales guys who demanded a feature that we later discovered no one wanted. The sales guy just assumed that a potential customer wanted a certain feature. He didn't. And he didn't buy either.

Is he assuming he won't get fired for his "quality" code? That's the mother of all f-ups.

Dave,
Thats exactly what he's assuming. He's been there coming up on 4 years, and we were both made part of the IT department about 4 months ago, we were just the personal programmers for one department, we didn't have to follow any of the SOCKS(sp?) Compliance issues, none of the Software Development Life Cycle or anything, if they wanted something we made it then gave it to them, so up until now no one ever knew of any "bugs" he wrote. I'm hoping that now that they're coming to light something will be done about it.

Dim i as Integer
dim Total as Decimal = 0
For i = 0 to lstTest.Items.Count - 1
Total += Ctype(lstTest.GetItemText(lstTest.Items(i)),Decimal)
Next
txtTest.Text = CStr(Total)
Converting it to C# is very simpel 
Best Regards

hi,
dim test as string = " test "<br />
textbox1.text=test 'will give you " test "<br />
textbox1.text=test.trim() 'will give you "test"<br />
textbox1.text=test.trimStart()'will give you "test "<br />
textbox1.text=test.trimend()'will give you " test"
basically, it will remove the white spaces from the string.
hope this helps

hello frnds,
trim() is basically to remove the spaces from left and right side of the string
let take an example
txtPfr.text = "****prasad****"
trim(txtPfr.text)
then it removes the sapce from both side
likewise u can use Ltrim() and Rtrim() methods too.
to remove Left and Right side sapces respectivelly.
best luck

hi,
provide the format in the tostring() function. try this:
yourLabel.Text = yourDateTimeObject.ToString("mm/dd/yy")'or ("dd/mm/yy") or whaterver acceptable format.
hope this helps

where exactly do you want to save it?
you could use the various properties like day, month, year ... provided by the datatime object to create a string that you like and save it to ....

the best way depends upon where you want to store the data.
you have not made it clear where you want to save it? i asked you in earlier post.
if you are saving the data in a database then you will have to store the datetime object, but if you are storing it in a text file, you can't do that.
you will have to format it. for example save the year,month,day... in a file and use it when you want to create a datetime object: datetime dt = new datetime(year,month,day) or you can save the ticks and use it to create the object when you read from the file like: datetime dt = new datetime(ticks)
hope this helps.
regards

Where are you going to save it? If you are saving it to a database, you should not save it as a string, but a date.
Use the DateTime.ParseExact method to parse the string. You can use any date format that is possible to specify as a format string.

hi Guffa :
simply my question is : if i have a string contains
a date (suppose 17/06/2007 format dd/mm/yyyy) how to convert this value to
a valid date if my data base has the date format mm/dd/yyyy
(or any date format) ??
thank you

Stop. Database's don't have a format for a date, unless you made the mistake of storing the date as text. Pass the date to a parameter in your SQL insert and you pass this parameter a DateTime value, not a String.

in MS server i could enter a date 06/17/2007.
but i could not enter 17/06/2007 .
can we consider this a date format problem ??

Nope. I call it a validation problem.
You're not putting the date entered by the user into a DateTime value. You're just taking the string and putting that directly into an SQL statement. That's a really bad idea.
If you use a parameterized query, the parameter will format the DateTime value for any SQL Server localization for you. All you have to do is get the text the user entered into a DateTime value, validate it so it's inside a good date range, then pass it to your SQL code.
