The below code will generate a form dropdown for all 12 months, with the current month selected. Handy for those date pickers!

The below code will generate a form dropdown for all the days of the month, with today's day selected. Handy for those date pickers!

Description:
Call one of the overloaded functions and a you will have a randomly generated password.

Generate() - Will generate a password 13 or (more/less) characters in length ranging from A-Z a-z 0-9 and other characters such as @ # %... etc.

Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Integer, ByVal AsciiMax As Integer)
Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Char, ByVal AsciiMax As Char) - Allows you to set your ASCII range if you wish not to include number for example.

Generate(ByVal ExcludeValues As String()) - Works like Generate() buts characters passed in the array will not be used to generate the password.

Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Integer, ByVal AsciiMax As Integer, ByVal ExcludeValues As String())
Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Char, ByVal AsciiMax As Char, ByVal ExcludeValues As String()) - Works like Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Integer, ByVal AsciiMax As Integer) & Generate(ByVal AsciiMin As Char, ByVal AsciiMax As Char), but allows you to also exclude characters that you do not wish the generator to use.



UPDATE
03/06/2006: Included use of Phill64's TrueRandom2 class for generating random numbers. Also overloaded the constructor so that a length can be set for the password, if the length is not set the default is set to 13.

This could be used for any type of simple hash checking. It could also be used to store a "password" that had to be verified. This code is completely managed.

This routine will get an image stored in a SQL database (IBM Informix shown here) as a BLOB and return it to the screen.

To place this on an HTML page simply add

I have an MD5 hashed version as well, but can't share that...(So you can have encrypted id's passed)

Have fun,
Jeremy

Have you ever tried to use Color.Blue.ToString and gotten undesired results?
Or have you ever tried to save a color to an INI and not be able to reproduce it the next time around?

The methods below will help you in your conquest of converting the Color structure to HTML (#FF0000) and back to a Color structure again.

An all in one function that formats a given file's Size from bytes to gB.

I use something similar to this in an application named Shock 3. It provides you with your own Custom settings that can handle your own Custom types as well.

This snippet generates a secure hash string using VB.NET

This snippet also you to limit the input in a form field to a specified number of characters. It displays a counter so users can see how many characters they have left, and once they reach the limit the field just trims the length to your limit.

The following is a snippet from what I used when I implemented a tagboard to my site. Further revisions could/should read the LIMIT from the maxlength attribute
