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!

Input String was not in the correct format - Strange places

Asked by traxion in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, Programming for ASP.NET, .NET Framework 2.x

Tags: ,

I am getting a very very odd error.  I have a web application that was painstakingly converted from C# to VB .NET.  Now I know there is a lot of work involved to getting this to function, but I'm seeing some strange errors.  I have a function that is giving me the "Input string was not in hte correct format" error, however, it does it on odd lines.  In the Attached snippet, the error is on the last "End If" line.  If I comment the whole block out and try to manually return an integer, it will throw the error on one of my commented lines.  The code is below (not sure how the snippet system works yet).  Also, this is .NET Framework 2.0.  Compiles with no errors or warnings.

            Dim result As Integer = 0

            Dim key As String = "GetTotalCalls_" & commId & "_" & sDate.ToShortDateString() & "_" & eDate.ToShortDateString()
            If BaseCallLog.Settings.EnableCaching AndAlso BizObject.Cache(key) IsNot Nothing Then
                result = CInt(BizObject.Cache(key))
            Else
                If commId = 0 Then
                    Dim cList As List(Of Community.Community) = Community.Community.GetCommunitiesByUser(Membership.GetUser().UserName)
                    If cList.Count > 0 Then
                        For Each comm As Community.Community In cList
                            result += CInt(SiteProvider.CallLog.GetCallVolume(sDate, eDate, comm.TableName))
                        Next
                    End If
                Else
                    Dim tableName As String = Community.Community.GetTableNameFromCommunityId(commId)
                    result += CInt(SiteProvider.CallLog.GetCallVolume(sDate, eDate, tableName))
                End If
                BaseCallLog.CacheData(key, result)
            End If
            Return resultStart Free Trial
