I have created a service that is supposed to pass data from SQL to CSV, by creating a CSV file. It has no errors, but i run it and nothing happens.
1) Is there something I am missing?
2) If it works, and i want to convert to txt file, is it enough to change the "CSV" to "txt" parts?
My code:
#Region "Export SQL TO CSV"
Public Shared Function WriteCSV(ByVal input As String) As String
Try
If (input Is Nothing) Then
Return String.Empty
End If
Dim containsQuote As Boolean = False
Dim containsComma As Boolean = False
Dim len As Integer = input.Length
Dim i As Integer = 0
Do While ((i < len) _
AndAlso ((containsComma = False) _
OrElse (containsQuote = False)))
Dim ch As Char = input(i)
If (ch = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(34)) Then
containsQuote = True
ElseIf (ch = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(44)) Then
containsComma = True
End If
i = (i + 1)
Loop
If (containsQuote AndAlso containsComma) Then
input = input.Replace("""", """""")
End If
If (containsComma) Then
Return """" & input & """"
Else
Return input
End If
Catch ex As Exception

Dim name1 As String = db("NAME1").Value
For i As Integer = 1 To db.RecordCount
sb.Append(WriteCSV(userid + "," + name1 + ","))
sb.AppendLine()
db.MoveNext()
Next
End Using
File.WriteAllText("C:\Users\user1\Desktop\ex1.csv", sb.ToString)
If (Not System.IO.Directory.Exists("C:\Users\user1\Desktop\ex1")) Then
System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory("C:\Users\user1\Desktop\ex1")

Given a string, how do you generate all partitions of it (shown as smaller strings separated by commas)?
Also, what is the total number of partitions for a string of length n?
The following will give the result, but is not good on long strings.
String: CODE
C,O,D,E
C,O,DE
C,OD,E
C,ODE
CO,D,E
CO,DE
COD,E

I reckon [2^(n-1) - 1] in total:
(n-1) positions to put a comma, 2 "states" (comma or not comma), -1 for the trivial case with no commas.
A simpler algorithm would be to iterate through the number of cases and use the binary representation to determine whether to put a comma in each position.
For example (simple form with TextBox, Button and ListBox):
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
Dim s As String = TextBox1.Text
If s.Length < 2 Then
MessageBox.Show("Enter a longer string")
Return
End If
For i = 1 To Math.Pow(2, s.Length - 1) - 1
Dim result As String = s(0)
For j = 1 To s.Length - 1
result = result & CommaOrNot(i, j) & s(j)
Next
ListBox1.Items.Add(result)
Next
End Sub
Private Function CommaOrNot(i As Integer, j As Integer) As String
If (i And Math.Pow(2, j - 1)) = Math.Pow(2, j - 1) Then
Return ","
Else
Return ""
End If
End Function
I really liked Fruitbat's approach. Here's an alternate version using a slightly different mechanism for the representation of the binary number and how to determine if the comma should be included or not:
Public Class Form1
Private combinations As List(Of String)
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim s As String = TextBox1.Text
If s.Length < 2 Then
MessageBox.Show("Enter a longer string")
Exit Sub
End If
Button1.Enabled = False
ListBox1.DataSource = Nothing
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
ListBox1.Items.Add("Generating combinations...")
BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerAsync(s)
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
Dim s As String = e.Argument
Dim combinations As New List(Of String)
Dim binary() As Char
Dim values() As Char = s.ToCharArray
Dim max As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(New String("1", s.Length - 1), 2)
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder
For i As Integer = 0 To max
sb.Clear()
binary = Convert.ToString(i, 2).PadLeft(values.Length, "0").ToCharArray
For j As Integer = 0 To values.Length - 1
sb.Append(If(binary(j) = "0", "", ","))
sb.Append(values(j))
Next
combinations.Add(sb.ToString)
Next
e.Result = combinations
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_RunWorkerCompleted(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.RunWorkerCompleted
combinations = e.Result
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
ListBox1.Items.Add("Generating combinations...Done!")
ListBox1.Items.Add("Adding Results...one moment please!")
Application.DoEvents()
ListBox1.DataSource = Nothing
ListBox1.DataSource = combinations
Button1.Enabled = True

First part of the code is to retrieve data from the web. It takes only a part of the second to complete the request. Second part of the code is to split data so that parts of data can be shown in different labels and it takes around 5-6 second to complete this operation?
Why is that? Can it be done faster?
First part of the code (textbox1 key down event)
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
TextBox1.Text = UCase(TextBox1.Text)
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
GoTo exx
Else

Dim strSymbol As String = TextBox1.Text
strURL = " http://quote.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?" & _

MessageBox.Show(RequestWebData(strURL))
Second part of the code and functions :

Dim myText = Label24.Text
Dim dIndex = myText.IndexOf("Inc.")
If (dIndex > -1) Then
Label24.Text = (Strings.Left(Label24.Text, dIndex + 4))
Else
Label24.Text = (Label24.Text)
End If
Dim myText2 = Label24.Text
Dim dIndex2 = myText2.IndexOf("Common")
If (dIndex2 > -1) Then
Label24.Text = (Label24.Text.Replace("Common", ""))
Else

'Dim x As Integer
Return LineIn.Split(""",")(i)
End Function
Function GetName2(ByVal LineIn As String, ByVal i As Integer) As String
'Dim x As Integer
Return LineIn.Split("""")(i)
End Function
Function GetName3(ByVal LineIn As String, ByVal i As Integer) As String
'Dim x As Integer
Return LineIn.Split(",")(i)
End Function
Maybe it is so slow because of these three functions that I am using to split data?

I think in this line is the problem
arrayone(one) = currentField
Here it trys to cast the string to a double. You have to use something like this:
arrayone(one) = Double.Parse(currentField)
or to have it a saver way:
Dim dbl As Double
If Double.TryParse(currentField, dbl) Then
arrayone(one) = dbl
Else
arrayone(one) = 0.0

I am little bit confused in this program.
I am new to Visual Basic but intermediate to C.
Actually I want to get sub-string of string without using library function of Visual Basic.
Here is the C source code I also given my VB code too.
1.The Program will get two inputs from user i.e A & B
2. Than Find the substring from B.
3. Finally Print the result.
int i,j=0,k=0,substr=0;
for(i=0;i<strlen(a);i++)
{
if(a[i]==b[j])
{
j++;
if(b[j]==0)
{
printf("second string is substring of first one");
substr=1;
break;
}
}
}
for(i=0;i<strlen(b);i++)
{
if(b[i]==a[k])
{
k++;
if(a[k]==0)
{
printf(" first string is substring of second string");
substr=1;
break ;
}
}
}
if(substr==0)
{
printf("no substring present");
}
While my code is
Dim a As String
Dim b As String
a = InputBox("Enter First String", a)
b = InputBox("Enter 2nd String", b)
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer = 0
Dim k As Integer = 0
Dim substr As Integer = 0
For i = 0 To a.Length - 1
If a(i) = b(j) Then
j += 1
If b(j) = 0 Then
MsgBox("second string is substring of first one")
substr = 1
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
For i = 0 To b.Length - 1
If b(i) = a(k) Then
k += 1
If a(k) = 0 Then
MsgBox(" first string is substring of second string")
substr = 1
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
If substr = 0 Then
MsgBox("no substring present")
End If
End Sub
While compiling it gives following debugging errors.

Part of your confusion is that .Net strings are much more than just character buffers. I'm going to assume that you can at least use strings. If you can't, use need to declare character arrays instead. That out of the way, this should get you there as a 1:1 translation:
Private Shared Function search(ByVal a As String, ByVal b As String) As Integer
Dim i As Integer = 0
Dim j As Integer = 0
Dim firstOcc As Integer
While i < a.Length
While a.Chars(i)<>b.Chars(0) AndAlso i < a.Length
i += 1
End While
If i >= a.Length Then Return -1 'search can not continue
firstOcc = i
While a.Chars(i)=b.Chars(j) AndAlso i < a.Length AndAlso j < b.Length
i += 1
j += 1
End While
If j = b.Length Then Return firstOcc
If i = a.Length Then Return -1
i = firstOcc + 1
j = 0
End While
Return 0
End Function
Shared Sub Main() As Integer
Dim a As String
Dim b As String
Dim loc As Integer
Console.Write("Enter the main string :")
a = Console.ReadLine()
Console.Write("Enter the search string :")
b = Console.ReadLine()
loc = search(a, b)
If loc = -1 Then
Console.WriteLine("Not found")
Else
Console.WriteLine("Found at location {0:D}",loc+1)
End If
Console.ReadKey(True)
End Sub
But please don't ever actually use that. All you really need is this:
Private Shared Function search(ByVal haystack as String, ByVal needle As String) As Integer
Return haystack.IndexOf(needle)
End Function
VB has a built-in function called InStr, it's part of the language. It returns an integer specifying the start position of the first occurrence of one string within another.

Try this one, this will return a List(Of Integer) containing the index to all occurrence's of the find text within the source text, after the specified search starting position.

My codes will just output like this "McDonalds" is you input "mc~donalds"
now my problem is eh I input "evalue", my output must be "eValue"
The only way to know how to treat a special string is to code it yourself from a list of rules:
Private Function NameCsing(ByVal sValue As String) As String
If sValue.Trim.ToLower = "evalue" Then Return "eValue"
'Then process any other special cases
End Function
