Hi,
what collection are you using?
some of them (such as List) don't care about unique items, others do (such as Dictionary which requires unique keys).

Hello,
Dim Mycollection as new collection
Are you saying I should be looking into List(of)?
Thanks!

you should ALWAYS use typed containers.

if you're using a hashtable, you can make the key map to a list of items, then you can add duplicates there.

"Make the key map to a list of item" sounds like what I want, but how?
I map my collection (maybe a hashtable) to the DGV
Each item in the collection represents a separate row in the DGV
I write to the collection through the key. Ideally, more than one row could have the same key and would all be written to in the same set.
But collections, hashtables too, require unique keys.
What am I missing?
Thanks again.

You could create a Dictionary< string, List< someThing>> which would map each string onto a List holding zero, one, or more objects of type someThing.

Hi everyone, im working on the GCS part of our autopilot project. I have developed it in visual basic.net 2005 , what the software basically does is that it receives the values byte by byte, convert them into type double and then displays it on the gauges attached in the design window, im attaching my code below, can someone please tell me if whatever i have done here is correct ??

What does 'correct' mean ? Does the program do what you expect it to ? What sort of advice are you looking for ?

I have Notepad in my machine and it is my default text editor. When I double click a text file in Explorer it automatically opens in Notepad.
I have made a similar program. I have compiled it. It reads text files properly. I have published it and made a setup file. I installed the file.
I opened it, opened a text file manually, it opened. I assigned it to be my default Text editor. Now I double clicked a text file and it just did not open at all.
Please tell me how to get this thing done.

I am not sure if I understood your question correctly. Are looking for FileAssociation? Then, this[^] or this[^] article can help you.

Just as another note, Windows passes any files to be opened as command line arguments. If you get any arguments which pass file paths (ie System.IO.File.Exists returns true), then you need to open them

Does your application handle command line arguments and handle them correctly?? I'm guessing probably not. That's how Explorer tells your app which file was double-clicked. The command line it would use to launch your app would look something like:
C:\Program Files\MyApp\MyEditor.exe "C:\some folder\some other folder\folder\MyTextFile.txt"

Take a look at this[^]. It contains code snippets and a demo porject project ( I really must learn to type ).

Hello -
I am trying to open up an excel file. I am writing this from a Ribbon Command Button using VSTO. My main goal is to open an existing file (\\musabiralo\musa.xls).
When I try this, it opens up in a new Excel Workbook, not too surprised but what I really want to open on existing workbook. Question is how can I do that?
Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application
Dim xlsWB As Excel.Workbook = xlApp.ActiveWorkbook
xlApp.Workbooks.Open(fileFullPath, , True)
xlApp.Visible = True
Thanks a lot.

You're saying that you already have a workbook open and you want to open a different workbook, merging the two?? You can't. You have to import the data from the other workbook.

Greetings:
I am back on this question again. My work around did not work. 
Let me explain what I am trying to ask here:
I have a 'blank' excel workbook already open which I see in my taskbar. Now I want to open an excel file in this blank Excel which is already open.
If I do "Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application", this will open a new Excel file. If I do "Dim xlApp As Excel.Application", this will cause "Null Reference ..." thing
So, how can I reference the already open excel work book or how can I open the existing excel file in already open excel workbook?
Thanks.

I am trying to decode a mp3 to wav using Lame.exe. The wav file gets created but, I am having problems trying to get the percentage done to show on a progressbar and the current % in a label.
After trying for about a week now, I want to go a differerent way. Can anyone point me to a site that has a DLL and sample code in VB 8or9? It seems to me that the "MP3 to Wav" subject does not exist in the VB world. I already been to a multitude of sites and 99% of them deal in C++ or DirectDraw which I do not want because converting C++ to VB has a lot of problems, especially (SizeOf) which has no equal in VB. There are a lot more, but that is getting off the subject.
THNX for any help in advance.

You have two options. The first is to use a library, like this: DLL To Decode MP3 To WAV/PCM. The second is to manually parse the MP3 file format and write the WAV file yourself
FYI: SizeOf does indeed have an equivalent. In classic VB, you could have used Len. Nowadays, you can use System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.SizeOf

I already have this...It does not compile on my machine. I had to upgrade it to VS 2008 and in doing so, it displayed a crap load of errors. So I deleted it from my machine. I tried the Marshal.SizeOf and it still didnt work. Speaking of things that are not working, when I try to add the wmp.dll to my toolbox, I get ( dllRegisterServer in wmp.dll did not Load ) or something to that effect. I know it does not load in the Express Editions, but Im using VS 2008 Pro. It might be the VS install did not install quite correctly. I might have to uninstall it and do a complete install all over again.
THNX anyway for your time and patience.

I had this problem too.
To bypass i used the app.config to do the hibernate configuration.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="hibernate-configuration" type="NHibernate.Cfg.ConfigurationSectionHandler, NHibernate"/>
</configSections>
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2">
<session-factory>
...
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>
</configuration>

Develop a menu based application which provides the facility to convert temperature and length from one unit to another.
Running the application will display the main “Form”, this form will have a menu with the caption “File” there will be two “submenus” under this menu, with the caption “Temperature” and “Length” (as shown below)
Clicking on “Temperature” will display another form with the caption “Temperature”. (as shown below). Here temperature will be entered in “Celsius”, and then unit of resulting value will be specified through two radio buttons. Clicking the “Compute” button will cause the entered value, converted to the unit specified through radio buttons. E.g. if user enters 12, then selects “Kelvin” radio button, then after clicking “Compute” the result will be calculated by converting the “Celsius” to Kelvin.
The formulae used for conversion are as follows:
C = (F - 32) x 5/9
K = C + 273
F = (C x 9/5) + 32
Similarly Length converter will convert the length in “Kilometers” to “Meters” and “Centimeters” e.g. if you enter “20” and select “Meter” radio button, then after clicking the “Compute” button will display the result by converting 20 to “Meter” unit.
Hint:
1 KM = 1000 M
1 M = 100 CM
