hey, i am having some trouble with my Hotel billing application form my visual basic 2005 book. I have completed the assignment halfway through, i just need help with some of the more harder coding i guess you could say. this doesn't include any databases or anything either.
It is case 5 from the programing assignments in chapter 8:
I have to design a hotel billing assignment for a cancun resort in Mexico.
The purpose:
the application will calculate the hotel cost and convert the bill into mexican pesos or american dollars based on the customer's nationality.
Other Info:
A combo box requesting the type of room:
King Suite ($280)
2 Queen Beds suite ($310)
King Standard Room ($235)
2 Queen Beds Standard Room ($255)
i have the entire interface completed, i need help with the code for converting american dollars to pesos. here is what i got that is completely wrong, i don't even think this is the right procedure, i do no it is way to short... i really need help with this
AmericanDollars = Pesos * 0.1
after that is converted, i need to add up the rooms like,
if people stay in the King Suite for 7 nights it will cost... $300 or something. and i don't no what source i need to write.
can someone help me with making these proceddures?
thanks alot ...seroiusly

You need to store the prices for each item, probably in the value property of the combo box item. Then you need to multiply that by the number of nights.
AmericanDollars = Pesos * 0.1
Assuming that Pesos contains the price in Pesos and AmericanDollars is a variable to hold the US$ price, then the only possible problem here is that the conversion may not be 100% accurate. The code is fine.
I'd do the conversion at the end, after you work out the total price.
TotalPrice = RoomCost * NumberOfNights
That's really it, you just need to fill the blanks.

ok well i have this in the cod,e i can't seem to fine what is missing?:
Dim Numberofnights As Decimal
Dim introomtype As Integer
Dim roomcost As Decimal
Dim totalprice As Decimal
Dim americandollars As Decimal
americandollars = Pesos * 0.1
TotalPrice = RoomCost * NumberOfNights
' it needs to print the total(s) here:
Me.lblFinalTotal.Visible = True
Me.lblTaxesForStay.Visible = True
Me.lblSubtotalBillingAmount.Visible = True
Me.lblPOPtotal.Visible = True
Me.lbltaxesPOP.Visible = True
Me.lblBillingPOP.Visible = True

If VB.Left(ReadStr, 8)<>"[Export]"And Len(ReadStr)>0 Then
i = i + 1
End If
Loop
For j = 0 To UBound(strCol)
udtCustom(i).List(j) = strCol(j)

This is VB6 ? I'd say that List() needs to be allocated to be an array, it's probably null.

this is Lounge. Don't ask your programming questions here.
No one will help here in the lounge. Please ask your questions in the appropriate forum.

It used to be AmericanDollars = Pesos * .00001
but I think currently it's AmericanDollars = Pesos * 52944
Seriously, apart from you asking this in the lounge, you just need to go to a banking site and get the current conversion rate, assuming you don't need to sync up with a webservice to keep the rate current.

His conversion rate is not that bad. As of today, it was 10.91 MXN per USD... His MXN = 0.1 * USD is assuming 10 pesos to 1 dollar, which is a good estimation.

I have used datagrid to display data on a web page. Does anyone know how to use the sleep function in vb.net to display data using time intervals.
for example first entry came in at 16:02:01 and the second at 16:02:21 instead of displaying both entries at once i want it to display the first entry then wait 20 secods to display the second entry.
I hope i have made the problem clear.

You should stick with the answers you're getting in the ASP.NET forum. Again, you cannot use the VB.NET sleep function, and the fact that you're continuing to ask about the VB.NET sleep method means you really need to take my advice and buy an ASP.NET book.
No matter what, you're going to use AJAX or you're just going to write javascript that takes all the values and shows them in a time interval. There's just no way to use VB.NET to create a client side delay as you're describing it.

If you are using an exchange-server there are a lot of tools to add disclaimers to the outgoing mail ( normaly those use a message sink to fetch messages from the internal transport and attach these) - just search google for exchange and disclaimer ( you will find even some vb-scripts to handle the task ).

In the old Datagrid (ASP.Net 1.1) days to add a data column to a datagrid using VB.Net you used something like:
Datagridname.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Name", Gettype(String)))
Now when I try to use this same functionality to name a column that I need to add programattically to a gridview I get this error:
Value of type 'System.Data.DataColumn' cannot be converted to 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataControlField'
I have tried to use DataControlField("Name")as shown here: gridview.Columns.Add(New DataControlField("Carrier FEIN")) but I get an error: 'New cannot be used on a class that is declared 'MustInherit'. So I removed the New and get the message 'datacontrolfield is a type in 'WebControls' and cannot be used as an expression.
I am at a complete loss and really need some help. I am using ASP.Net 2.0 and VB.Net 2005 - Anybody have any ideas? TIA,
Coleen

It said it suppose to be a DataControlField. DataControlField is the abstract class of TemplateField, BoundField, hyperlinkfield and etc..
<br />
BoundField bf = new BoundField();<br />
bf.DataField = "DateOfBirth"; <br />
GridView1.Columns.Add (bf);<br />

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hi Friends,
I am trying to Convert DataGrid into Excel,
My Code -------------------------------
Private Sub btnExport_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExport.Click
'export to excel
Response.Clear()
Response.Buffer = True
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=FileName.xls")
'Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.Charset = ""
Me.EnableViewState = False
Dim oStringWriter As New System.IO.StringWriter
Dim oHtmlTextWriter As New System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(oStringWriter)
grd1.AllowPaging = False
Me.ClearControls(grd1)
grd1.RenderControl(oHtmlTextWriter)Response.Write(oStringWriter.ToString())Response.End()
End Sub
Private Sub ClearControls(ByVal control As Control)
Dim i As Integer
For i = control.Controls.Count - 1 To 0 Step -1
ClearControls(control.Controls(i))
Next i
If Not TypeOf control Is TableCell Then
If Not (control.GetType().GetProperty("SelectedItem") Is Nothing) Then
Dim literal As New LiteralControl
control.Parent.Controls.Add(literal)
Try
literal.Text = CStr(control.GetType().GetProperty("SelectedItem").GetValue(control, Nothing))
Catch
End Try
control.Parent.Controls.Remove(control)
Else
If Not (control.GetType().GetProperty("Text") Is Nothing) Then
Dim literal As New LiteralControl
control.Parent.Controls.Add(literal)
literal.Text = CStr(control.GetType().GetProperty("Text").GetValue(control, Nothing))
control.Parent.Controls.Remove(control)
End If
End If
End If
Return
End Sub 'ClearControls
I am getting output of Excel. But not in correct format. The Excel sheet contains data of only the First page. It shows the Paging Number down after the first 10 records. And yes i have a column of data in Greek language which is not visible clearly. I am using MS Office 2007. Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Cheers

Can anybody guide me how to call functions and return values between VB.net and VB6.
Many thanks

Surely you can use VB2005 and COM to talk to Outlook 2000 ?
