The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to get Calendar dates from a given date

Asked by BeckyBair in .Net Editors & IDEs, Visual Basic Programming

Tags: vb6, dates

I appologize if I put this in the wrong zone, I couldn't find VB6...

I need to get Calendar dates (with Time) from a given date.  Example of what I mean is:

Week - the next Monday not 7 days from date
Month - the 1st day of the next month not 30 days from date
Quarter - the 1st day of the first month in the next quarter
Year - January 1st of next year

I believe I have figured out the Week, Month, and Year ones but am having difficulty with the Quarter one.

More examples for quarter would be:  given date is Today (08/11/2009 08:30:40) - User chooses 3 QTRs from now would be:  April 1st next year (same time of 08:30:40) - if I counted my quarters correctly :).

I have attached the code I have so far...  
Also, if the weeks, months and year can be done easier then let me know.
