Type Mismatch in Dlookup - vba

I'm getting a type mismatch in the Dlookup below. Note: the ID column in the Results2 Table is formatted as a Number.
If DLookup("[Result" & i & "]", "Results2", "[ID] = '" & newid & "'") <> Me.Controls("C" & 3 + column & "R" & i + j).Value Then
I've tried changing the newid from a string to an Integer or a Long, but I still get this error.

Per one of the comments, I updated the trouble line to the line below. I'm almost certain that was how I initially wrote this line and added the apostrophes as an attempt to fix.
If DLookup("[Result" & i & "]", "Results2", "[ID] = " & newid) <> Me.Controls("C" & 3 + column & "R" & i + j).Value Then
I had to fix one of my Goto's as well, one of them led to an infinite loop, but now everything is working as intended.
Thanks for the help!

How to find the first incident of any signature in a list/array within an email?

I want to give credit to an agent, if they're the one that sent the message, but only if their signature is at the top of the email.
Here is what I have. The search order is off. The code searches for one name at a time, and clear through the document. I need it to search for All names, the first one that hits in the body of the email.

InStr returns positional information. While it is difficult to find the first occurrence of an array member within the text (you would need to build and compare matches), you can find the first position of each name then find which came first.
For example (untested)
Sub CountOccurences_SpecificText_In_Folder()
Dim MailItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim i As Long, x As Long, position As Long, First As Long
Dim AgentNames() As String
AgentNames = Split("Simons,Skinner,Mammedaty,Hunter,Sunmola,Rodriguez,Mitchell,Tanner,Taylor,Wilson,Williams,Groover,Tyree,Chapman,Luker", ",")
Dim AgentCount(LBound(AgentNames) To UBound(AgentNames)) As Long
For i = LBound(AgentCount) To UBound(AgentCount)
AgentCount(i) = 0
Next i
For Each MailItem In ActiveExplorer.Selection
x = 0
For i = LBound(AgentNames) To UBound(AgentNames)
position = InStr(MailItem.Body, AgentNames(i))
If x > 0 Then
If position < x Then
x = position
First = i
End If
Else
If position > 0 Then
x = position
First = i
End If
End If
Next i
AgentCount(First) = AgentCount(First) + 1
Next MailItem
For i = LBound(AgentNames) To UBound(AgentNames)
Debug.Print AgentNames(i) & " Count: " & AgentCount(i)
Next i
End Sub
The idea in the previous answer may be better implemented like this:
Option Explicit
Sub CountOccurences_SpecificText_SelectedItems()
Dim objItem As Object
Dim objMail As MailItem
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim x As Long
Dim position As Long
Dim First As Long
Dim AgentNames() As String
AgentNames = Split("Simons,Skinner,Mammedaty,Hunter,Sunmola,Rodriguez,Mitchell,Tanner,Taylor,Wilson,Williams,Groover,Tyree,Chapman,Luker", ",")
ReDim AgentCount(LBound(AgentNames) To UBound(AgentNames)) As Long
For j = 1 To ActiveExplorer.Selection.Count
Set objItem = ActiveExplorer.Selection(j)
' Verify before attempting to return mailitem poroperties
If TypeOf objItem Is MailItem Then

Dim Strfinal as String = "#Cccccc,#Aaaaaa,Aaaaa,Baaaa,Caaaa,#Bbbbbb,Abbbbb,Bbbbbb,Cbbbbb"
I want the output like this
#Cccccc, #Aaaaaa(Aaaaa,Baaaa and Caaaa) and #Bbbbbb(Abbbbb,Bbbbbb and Cbbbbb)
I used this code to separate the character that have no #

'now find the position of last appearing ","
Dim comaposition As Integer
comaposition = Strng.LastIndexOf(",") 'it is zero based
'if not found, it will return -1 and u can exit, no need to do the work
If comaposition = "-1" Then
Exit Sub

'remove the comma
Dim String_After_Removing_Comma As String
String_After_Removing_Comma = Strng.Remove(comaposition, 1)
'add "and" in the same position where comma was found
Dim final_string As String
final_string = String_After_Removing_Comma.Insert(comaposition, " and ")
'show it on the textbox
CheckBox1.Text = final_string`
Please help me to solve it.
This here is not a pretty solution and can be optimized a lot. But it gets the job done:
Dim Strfinal As String = "#Cccccc,#Aaaaaa,Aaaaa,Baaaa,Caaaa,#Bbbbbb,Abbbbb,Bbbbbb,Cbbbbb"
Dim splittedString As String() = Strfinal.Split(",")
Dim a As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
Dim newstr As String = ""
For Each str As String In splittedString
If Not str.Contains("#"c) Then
a.Add(str)
Continue For
End If
If a.Count > 0 Then
Dim b = String.Join(",", a)
Dim i = b.LastIndexOf(","c)
b = b.Remove(i, 1)
b = b.Insert(i, " and ")
newstr += "(" + b + ")," + str
a.Clear()
Else
newstr += str + ","
End If
Next
If a.Count > 0 Then
Dim b = String.Join(",", a)
Dim i = b.LastIndexOf(","c)
b = b.Remove(i, 1)
b = b.Insert(i, " and ")
newstr += "(" + b + ")"
a.Clear()
End If
newstr = newstr.Replace(",(", " (")
Dim z = newstr.LastIndexOf(",#")
newstr = newstr.Remove(z, 1)
newstr = newstr.Insert(z, " and ")
Console.WriteLine(newstr)
Output:
#Cccccc,#Aaaaaa (Aaaaa,Baaaa and Caaaa) and #Bbbbbb(Abbbbb,Bbbbbb and Cbbbbb)

Macro VBA - Comparision the similar numbers from both strings

I am new in Macro VBA and I am facing a problem.
I having two string to compare, and how do I get the string as Result shown if the similarity numbers found in both string?
string 1 : 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,19,20
string 2 : 2,3,7,8,9,10,11
After comparison:
Result : 2,3,7,8,9,10,11
Code:
If ActiveSheet.Cells(irow + 1, 12).Value = "" Then
'MsgBox "Data not found"
Else
temp = vbNullString
temp = ActiveSheet.Cells(irow + 1, 12).Value
'expanddata() use to expend a sequence of numbers into a display string as below
' 1,2-4,6 -> 1,2,3,4,6
temp = expanddata(temp)
If Worksheets("AI").Cells(irow + 1, 10).Value = temp Then
temp = ConvNum(temp) 'if whole string same then convert back to 1,2-4,6
Else
'the comparision make in here

Extract employees between 2 Hire Dates VBA and SQL

You need properly formatted string expressions for your dates and to validate the user input:
If e = 1 And IsDate(k(m)) Then
strg = strg & " [DEU1$].[Last Start Date] = #" & Format(DateValue(k(m)), "yyyy\/mm\/dd") & "#;"
Exit For
ElseIf e = 2 And e Mod 2 = 0 And IsDate(k(m + 1)) Then

Automate PDF to Text VB.net

I'm currently using the below code in a VB.Net console app that takes the contents of a text file and extracts certain info and then exports it to a CSV.
All seems to work well but the problem is the file originally comes through as a PDF (only option possible) and i have to manually open the file in Adobe and 'Save as Text'.
Is there a way of either automating the conversion of PDF to text file or reading the PDF in place of the text file.
Any guidance or options would be appreciated
