What happen if my cell is vlookup on a table so if its blank show as blank instead of #NA ? can this be done ?

Sunday, November 28th, 2010

=(VLOOKUP(B9,Master!D:E,2) if the cell i vlookup is blank = 0 or blank instead of what i am getting now … #NA ?

You have two options:

1. Edit the lookup data so that the blank cells all contain a zero or something similar, so the lookup will return something
2. Wrap an "if" statement around the vlookup to return a zero or a blank if the formula errors out:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B9,Sheet1!D:E,2),0)

In visual basic express how do I choose only 5 out of 10 questions when using an array?

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

I’m trying to design a simple program to pick random questions from an array, unfortunately however I have no idea on how to limit how many programs are chosen. What I would like to do, is after five questions have been given, is for a message box to pop up and say that no more questions can be given.

Also, to keep the same questions from reappearing, what code do I use to remove the question from the array? I already know it would be something like

question.removeat("question here")

However since I’m using an array list I can’t use something like

For 1 to 9…

because when the question is removed it would result back in an error. I’ve tried this however

For ubound to lbound…

but to no success. Also, as you can probably imagine, I’m kind of new at this, so some examples would help along with the explanation.
I typed this in, and it didn’t quite work out. Any suggestions?

Counter = 0
If Counter < 2 Then
Randomize()
For i = 1 To 6
j = Int(Rnd() * i)
lblQ.Text = questions(j)
Next
Counter = Counter + 1
ElseIf Counter = 2 Then
MsgBox("Restart Program")
End If

Use a dictionary to store the questions. The key can be the question number, the entry can be a class that has the question and an "already asked" boolean.

When you ask a question, mark it as already asked. You’ll be able to filter the list for alreadyAsked=False using LINQ, that will keep only unasked questions in the list.

Public Class MyQuestionsClass
Public Question as String
Public AlreadyAsked as Boolean = False
Public Sub New(ByVal inQuestion as String)
Me.Question=inQuestion
Me.AlreadyAsked=False
End Sub
End Class

Dim myQuestions as new Dictionary(Of Integer, MyQuestionsClass)

For q = 1 to 10
myQuestions.add(q, new MyQuestionsClass("Question #" & q)
Next

Then let’s say you ask question #4
myQuestions(4).AlreadyAsked = True
