Problem with module and form load slow

[mark103]

Nearly done guys, I'd find it difficult with this task. When I type the numbers so far it works ok but when I try to move the lowest trackbar value numbers like 999, Testbox.Showdialog() appears to come up everytime.


Here it the code:

            If Val(Form2.Textbox.Text) <= 999 Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = Val(Form2.Textbox.Text)
            End If

            If Form2.Textbox.Text = "1.0" Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = 1000
            End If


            If Form2.Textbox.Text > "1.0" Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = 1000
                Textbox.ShowDialog()
            End If
        End If

Please can you tell me how I can fix that?? I don't want to remove Testbox.Showdialog() or anything. I just want to go over the limit of 1.0 in order to show Testbox.Showdialog.



Thanks,
Mark

Not until you READ THE OTHER POSTS

See my post on above, I'm having trouble. Nothing to do with old post.

If you call this 3 years of VB, you should give up. You cannot compare a STRING to a NUMBER, and when you say "1000" that is NOT the same as 1000.

"1000" is a STRING
1000 is a NUMBER

VAL("1000") turns it INTO a NUMBER (if it was one)

VAL("X") = 0 (because "X" is not a number)

Don't read old posts?

Help yourself, or ignore the help

Yes, I see exactly what your trouble is. You are lazy .... unfortunately the only person who can solve that problem is you.

Show some evidence of being able to grasp the simple concepts of VB and maybe we will be more willing to help. So far, you have failed to explain the problem adequately and you have failed to take on any advice anyone here has given you unless it has been copy and pastable.

Copy and paste this into your Form_Initialise code:

Me.Close()

And everything will fix itself. No joke.

this has to be a joke.......... seriously

[mark103]

I HAVE already explained what the problem is! When I type the numbers from 0 to 999, it working ok so far using with this code:

            If Val(Form2.Textbox.Text) <= 999 Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = Val(Form2.Textbox.Text)
            End If

            If Form2.Textbox.Text = "1.0" Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = 1000
            End If

BUT if I add the code from below to work together with the code on above and if I try to move the trackbar value numbers like 999, testbox.Showdialog() appears to come up everytime.

            If Form2.Textbox.Text > "1.0" Then
                Form2.TrackBar2.Value = 1000
                Textbox.ShowDialog()
            End If
        End If

You need to read on my previous post what I have already explained. I don't want to say it again when someone like visualAd who are very lazy enough to not read my post.



Plz help me guys, I am having trouble of trying to fix the method but I am nowhere nearby!!!!!!

>>> add periods to names <<<

    Private Sub setTrackBar()
        If Not IsNumeric(Form2TextboxText) Then
            'textbox is not number
            Debug.WriteLine("NOT A NUMBER")
            Exit Sub
        End If
        Dim asDecimal As Decimal = Decimal.Parse(Form2TextboxText)
        Dim asInteger As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Ceiling(asDecimal))
        Select Case Form2TextboxText 'textbox is string
            Case "1.0" 'this is string 
                Form2TrackBar2Value = 1000
            Case Else
                If asInteger > 0 AndAlso asInteger <= 999 Then
                    Form2TrackBar2Value = asInteger
                Else
                    Debug.WriteLine("number not between 1 and 999 inclusive")
                End If
        End Select
    End Sub

and for the record, we don't 'need' or 'have' to do anything. The problem isn't us.

Your code shows nothing from my code. When I type the trackbar value numbers on textbox and if I type higher than 1.0 which it 1000 for trakbar value then I want the textbox.showdialog to display immediately. It works from my following code but I cant move the trackbar value due to receive textbox.showdialog displayin immediately everytime if I try to move the trackbar value.

If Form2.Textbox.Text > 1.0 Then
        Textbox.ShowDialog()
     End If

You should read more as I am having trouble of trying to make the textbox.showdialog to show up if I type over 1.0 on the textbox like 1.1, 2.1......etc


I hope you understands of the trouble I have received so far I have no luck of being successful.....


Hope you guys will help me out using with my code to rewrite and get the problem fixing.


Thanks,
Mark

Then tell your professor that it cannot be done because the computer doesn't know that 1.1 is supposed to mean 1000 and so is everything above 1.2, except if the number is LESS THAN 1000.

It works from my following code but I cant move the trackbar value due to receive textbox.showdialog displayin immediately everytime if I try to move the trackbar value.

If that's the case, create a Label, give it a rememberable name (e.g. Mark103), and change it so instead of doing ShowDialog, it will output something like "Yes" on the Label. Then once you've sorted out which value you want to make the ShowDialog appear, use an if statement so that it should equal a value.

Tip: Convert String to Integer. Use Val(), use anything you're familiar with now, just so you can convert to int and do proper comparisons on numbers.

Next time I won't be this helpful.

I have tried convert string to integer and what happens? Still don't works. It works when I type over the limit of 1.0 but I cannot move the trackbar which I will received testbox.showdialog. That's why I need your help but you didn't post the fixing code or anything else to get my problem resolve ffs

Read post #54.

There is no need for rudeness. So far you have shown little evidence of helping yourself. Oblio has posted some pseudo code which would appear to do exactly what you need in post #54 but all you said was "that is not like my code".

How about looking at the post and converting the code into .NET. If you cannot do that then I suggest you pay someone to fix this problem for you because all we do is help you to help yourself.
