Hi,
rather than providing some information twice, you'd better tell us which database you are using, and what the exact error/exception information is you are getting for one or two specificied situations ("when I delete some fields the code work" is too vague). Your app is showing Exception.ToString() which is very good, but you failed to reproduce it here.

Hello,
I got the solution now sir.
I have noticed that word "position" is a reserved word in
database.

Hi All,
This is my first post and hope i am placing it in the right forums -
I have the following class
Class User
Dim UserID as integer
Dim IsActive as boolean
Dim Username as string
End Class
i need to perform lookups on UserID or IsActive
Get user with ID = X (returns one object)
Get all active Users (returns multiple objects - possibly a list)
Get all inactive users (returns multiple objcets - possibly a list)
for quicker retrieval using userid, i intend to use the generics dictionary
dim Users as Dictionary (Of integer, User)
are there any generics implementations which allow me to use quickly retrieve all active users or inactive users as well?
Just wanted to check with you experts before embarking on my own.
Thanks in advance
Kalyan

you could:
- just use a dictionary (key=UserId) and test IsActive as appropriate;
- keep one dictionary (key=UserId), and two lists (one with active, one with inactive users);
- keep two dictionaries, one with active and one with inactive users;
- use a DataTable;
- use lambda expressions.
IMO the best choice depends a bit on the circumstances where you need it.

Hi Luc,
Thanks for a quick reply.
I looked at generics and was hoping there may be a complex alternative which i might find interesting 
i have opted for the following to keep it simple
1 dictionary for quick retrieval by userid
2 lists for containing active and inactive users.
i wonder how this will scale for larger number of users!
Thanks to you i learnt about lambda expressions today. 
Go you still prefer datatables for these kind of operations when dealing with disconnected data?
Cheers
Kalyan

HI to all.
I have a simple question. I'm trying to create a bitmap from a memory stream. The memory stream is filled with a byte array and there isn't image information, only raw pixel data.
Now I'm confusing because the C# sample code I found in internet runs without errors
<br />
private Image GetImage (long position, int size)<br />
{<br />
string string1;<br />
byte[] byteArray1;<br />
Bitmap bitmap1;<br />
Stream stream1 = ((Stream) null);<br />
BinaryReader binaryReader1 = ((BinaryReader) null);<br />
MemoryStream memoryStream1 = ((MemoryStream) null);<br />
try<br />
{<br />
string1 = string.Format ("{0}gallery{1:D2}.enc", Session.RootPath, this.index);<br />
stream1 = ((Stream) File.OpenRead (string1));<br />
binaryReader1 = new BinaryReader (stream1, Encoding.ASCII);<br />
long int64_1 = binaryReader1.BaseStream.Seek (position, SeekOrigin.Begin);<br />
byteArray1 = binaryReader1.ReadBytes (size);<br />
this.ColorBalance (byteArray1);<br />
memoryStream1 = new MemoryStream (byteArray1);<br />
try<br />
{<br />
bitmap1 = new Bitmap (((Stream) memoryStream1));<br />
}<br />
catch<br />
{<br />
bitmap1 = new Bitmap (64, 64);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
finally<br />
{<br />
if (memoryStream1 != null)<br />
{<br />
memoryStream1.Close ();<br />
memoryStream1 = ((MemoryStream) null);<br />
}<br />
if (binaryReader1 != null)<br />
{<br />
binaryReader1.Close ();<br />
binaryReader1 = ((BinaryReader) null);<br />
}<br />
if (stream1 != null)<br />
{<br />
stream1.Close ();<br />
stream1 = ((Stream) null);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
return bitmap1;<br />
}<br />
while the conversion to VB.Net (2008) written by me raise an exception
<br />
Private Function _getImage(ByVal _position As Long, ByVal _size As Integer)<br />
Dim _bmp As New Bitmap(64, 64)<br />
Try<br />
Dim _stream As Stream = File.OpenRead(_file)<br />
Dim _binaryReader As BinaryReader = New BinaryReader(_stream, Encoding.ASCII)<br />
<br />
Dim _int64 As Long = _binaryReader.BaseStream.Seek(_position, SeekOrigin.Begin)<br />
Dim _byteArray As Byte() = _binaryReader.ReadBytes(_size)<br />
<br />
_colorBalance(_byteArray)<br />
Dim _memoryStream As New MemoryStream(_byteArray)<br />
_bmp = Bitmap.FromStream(_memoryStream) '<--- "Invalid data" exception<br />
<br />
_memoryStream.Close()<br />
_binaryReader.Close()<br />
_stream.Close()<br />
Catch ex As Exception<br />
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Get Image error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)<br />
End Try<br />
Return _bmp<br />
End Function<br />
Why the C# code runs and the VB not? Where I'm wrong?
Thanks.
Perry
P.S.: sorry my english, if you can...

Instead of :
xry2006 wrote: _bmp = Bitmap.FromStream(_memoryStream)
I recommend :
_bmp = New Bitmap(_memoryStream)
A subtle difference I know, howeer the difference is more than just returning a bitmap rather than an image.
Bitmap.FromStream ends up calling GdipLoadImageFromStream in the GDIPlus.dll
New Bitmap(stream) calls GdipCreateBitmapFromStream in the GDIPlus.dll
I assume the Bitmap version includes more handling for different image types.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I'd try your suggestion but the exception "Invalid parameter" remain.

Could you try it out. Could be something you missed in translation, though I couldn't spot it.
Private Function GetImage(position As Long, size As Integer) As Image
Dim string1 As String
Dim byteArray1 As Byte()
Dim bitmap1 As Bitmap
Dim stream1 As Stream = DirectCast(Nothing, Stream)
Dim binaryReader1 As BinaryReader = DirectCast(Nothing, BinaryReader)
Dim memoryStream1 As MemoryStream = DirectCast(Nothing, MemoryStream)
Try
string1 = String.Format("{0}gallery{1:D2}.enc", Session.RootPath, Me.index)
stream1 = DirectCast(File.OpenRead(string1), Stream)
binaryReader1 = New BinaryReader(stream1, Encoding.ASCII)
Dim int64_1 As Long = binaryReader1.BaseStream.Seek(position, SeekOrigin.Begin)
byteArray1 = binaryReader1.ReadBytes(size)
Me.ColorBalance(byteArray1)
memoryStream1 = New MemoryStream(byteArray1)
Try
bitmap1 = New Bitmap(DirectCast(memoryStream1, Stream))
Catch
bitmap1 = New Bitmap(64, 64)
End Try
Finally
If memoryStream1 IsNot Nothing Then
memoryStream1.Close()
memoryStream1 = DirectCast(Nothing, MemoryStream)
End If
If binaryReader1 IsNot Nothing Then
binaryReader1.Close()
binaryReader1 = DirectCast(Nothing, BinaryReader)
End If
If stream1 IsNot Nothing Then
stream1.Close()
stream1 = DirectCast(Nothing, Stream)
End If
End Try
Return bitmap1
End Function

either that or, better, reset the variable you were using when you need to.
Now name two reasons why the latter is better!

Hi all,
I have a little problem with a pair of arrays, when them are involved in a comparation work:
In particular, I have an Array A As String and another array B As String.
Normally the program works with a single array A, but sometimes I need a second array B.
Array A is filled with numerical string (sometime with up 15000 elements).
Array B is filled with numerical string (sometime with up 15000 elements).
The code works in this way:
Each element of array B is compared with Each element of array A.
If a value of array B is = to some value in array A then the value in the array B is removed and the array is resized (progressively size-decreased) but preserving remaining different values (Redim Preserve).
In this way, at the end of comparation loop, the array B will contain only values that are not already contained in array A.
The code seems to be perfectly working until the number of elements in array A and B is down about 2200 + 2200 elements, but if numbers of arrays element go up, the program seems to work (in an infinite loop) but in reality it is quited (closed) from O.S.
In the fact the program name disappears from list of running program.
The following is the schematic code:
Do Until IndexB = ArrayB.GetLength(0)
For IndexA = 1 to ArrayA.GetLength(0)
If Val(ArrayB(IndexB)) = Val(ArrayA(IndexA)) Then
ArrayB(IndexB) = ArrayB(ArrayB.GetLength(0) - 1)
ReDim Preserve ArrayB((ArrayB.GetLength(0) - 1) - 1)
IndexB = IndexB - 1
Exit For
End If
Next
IndexB = IndexB + 1
Loop
Application is running in a Windows Mobile 6.1 Device.
Apparentely seems to be a memory problem, but I don't think so, because size of arrays is not exagerate and the device have enough available memory.
Thanks for help.

Hi,
this is horribly inefficient for many reasons:
- you are converting strings to numbers all the time; it they really are numbers, store them in a numeric data type, not string.
- ReDim Preserve is expensive as it has to allocate a new array, then copy all the data. When the number of items in a collection varies, you should consider using a real collection instead of an array; use a collection type if those are available, or create your own linked list structures.
- For two arrays of size S1 and S2, you are performing S1*S2 comparisons. It would be cheaper to sort the first array, sort the second array, and then perform the equivalent of a merge-sort on both. This will improve speed dramatically and reduce the memory load drastically.
So throw it all out; start using lists of numbers; then sort and merge. It would handle millions of numbers in a matter of seconds.

As an alternative to the sort and merge approach, you may also try using a Dictionary/HashSet. If you have .NET 3.5 available, you could use the Except extension method (which I understand uses a HashSet internally) like so:
Dim temp = ArrayB.Select(AddressOf Double.Parse) _
.Except(ArrayA.Select(AddressOf Double.Parse)) _
.ToArray()
If you don't have the LINQ methods, you could do this yourself:
Dim parsedToRemove As New Dictionary(Of Double, Double)
Dim noDuplicates As New List(Of Double)
For Each parsedA In Array.ConvertAll(ArrayA, AddressOf Double.Parse)
If Not parsedToRemove.ContainsKey(parsedA) Then
parsedToRemove.Add(parsedA, parsedA)
End If
Next
For Each parsedB In Array.ConvertAll(ArrayB, AddressOf Double.Parse)
If Not parsedToRemove.ContainsKey(parsedB) Then
noDuplicates.Add(parsedB)
End If
Next

Hello
How can i make my program exit say when you would press somting like Ctrl+Esc ??
Thanks

What kind of application is it?
If it's a WinForms app, then simply Close() the main form when the right key combination is found in one of the KeyPress/KeyDown events.CQ de W5ALT
