• Sean D Wright Calculate the exact differences between 2 given dates

  TimeSpan supports only up to Days. How best to get the exact differences between 2 dates in years, months, and days I searched online and most methods only provide the average by assuming number of months or numbers of years and such. Try using the built in function to calculate the difference! DateAndTime.DateDiff (DateInterval, DateTime, DateTime, FirstDayOfWeek, FirstWeekOfYear) If it does, I probably not posting this but it doesn't because it would return in either totaldays, total... whatever not separately as I am looking for.

  Hi. I have tried ( in vain ), when executing the VB executable, to find out how to show the line number of the error that occurs. I can access the line number when I'm in the VB IDE environment, but not when I run the executable. Below is the code I use to access the line number ( I also tried lo_stacktrace.ToString(), but again the line number did not show when I ran the executable ) This leads me to the question: Is it at all possible to access the line number when the executable is run Private Function CodeRef( ByVal po_ModInfo As t_ModInfo _ , ByVal po_ex As Exception _ , ByVal pb_ReturnSource As Boolean _ , ByVal pl_FrameNo As Long _ ) As String Dim lo_stackframe As Stac ...Show All

• NeedSomeAnswers .Net2003: "Opening media..." message with AXWindowsMediaPlayer, doesn't open

  Hi. I would appreciate any help. Imagine an AxWindowsMediaPlayer control on a VB.NET form along with a list box that contains URLs of sound files on the local machine. When bntPlay1 is pressed the player will grab the first item in the list box and play it, or if it's already playing, it will grab the next one in the list and stat playing that one instead. That part works fine. My issue is that I want it to automatically grab the next file from the list box when the current one is completed. It does correctly put the next item into the URL, but it just says "Opening media..." and never actually opens the media. Again, if I click btnPlay1, the media does open correctly. I have included some of the commented cod ...Show All

• OOT_In_Atlanta Fraction to decimal

  Hi! I have a list with prices of US Treasury bonds. They are quoted in a particular way that I would like to convert to decimal form. They are quoted like this eg: 99-02. Now this means that the price is 99 and some decimal. The two first numbers are the number of 32:s. Thus in this case the price is 99 and 2/32. However if there are three decimals eg 99-021 the last digit refers to the number of 124:s. Thus the price is 99 and 2/32 and 1/256. Sometimes There are only two decimals followed by a plus or minus sign eg 99-30+ or 99-10-. The plus/minus indicates that you should add/subtract 1/64. Keep in mind that the non decimal numbers may be one, two or three digits. Thus, it could be eg. 6-02 87-22- or 105-21+. Is there any wa ...Show All
