[2008] Gather Specific Data From Multiple Text Files?
Mar 5, 2009
I'm trying to write a program that will take emails that I have saved from outlook as text files and scan it for specific data, and return those strings to a textbox (i will modify it so it outputs the exact way i need it, i just need to grab that info faster than it takes by hand). I dont know how to go about actually grabbing that specific data.

There can be only one grouping (denoted with asterisks, they are separated in the emails like that as well), or 50 and any number in between. I only need the information as shown in the text file example above (sometimes, it is blank or not there - if that's the case just skip and messagebox.show to alert me that it was skipped).

How can I combine multiple *.txt files in a specific directory into one txt file in another directory using VB.NET? (And to delete blank lines at the end of the new file)
I know how to do it in vbscript:
Const ForReading = 1
Const ForWriting = 2
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objOutputFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("C:logsimportoutput.txt")

I have a number of text boxs that gather data and put it in a combined string in a rich text box that displays all of the collected data. Some of the text boxes require data pasted from other sources however when that data is then copied from the rich text box to the clipboard through a routine, it loses its formatting. home to maintain the original formating?

i've been busy with a program and it has worked out quite well. The only thing I still want is that it is possible to customize things and save that in a text file. Normally if i want an other background for one day, i need to change it in VB or make a checkbox to do that. if i then restart the program all the settings are lost and i have to set it again. so i was wondering if the program can make a text file and put codes like 1 for theme 1 and 2 for theme 2 etc. in it, then save it and load that file when it starts up again. and is this also possible for a login form? if yes, i can also add a "Create Account" button for my program instead of adding codes in VB.

I got this .dbf file with 80,000+ objects. Using vb.net 2008 I am trying to export the data from the .dbf into a .mdb file. Problem is that when I try to open the mdb file in Access, it says that the file reached the maximum limit of records. I found out that .mdb files could only hold 32,700 + objects in one database.
Is there another way around the maximum number of objects such that I could fit 80,000 object in it? If not, is there a way to, instead split the data from the datagridview into several parts that can be saved into multiple .mdb files?

get specific data from below case?. As it is imported from text file, all row data located at A column per Row and total number of rows are more than 30000. From below, I want to get Company name and Address data only out of long text data.
For your understanding, a)Each row start with 6digits number like 3336041, 3336058 etc and end with pin code 6digits. b) there are minimum 4 or more digit's space after company name and each address data.
Result should be got <company name> and <Address field> data only.
for example 1st block should have below format;
PROCON INSTRUMENTATION PRIVATE LTD
244, G S T ROAD, URAPAKKAM,GUDUVANCHERY TAMILNADU, TAMIL NADU Pin:603202
2nd block: to display in another lines as like above - marked as bold in sample text
3rd block: to display in another lines as like above - marked as bold in sample text

I wonder if it is possible to find a specific row and specific columns in data base file (Access) . You see , I am using a DataGridView control to show only SOME of the columns (fields) of a table from an Access file . For example , lets say that in the DataGridView control I only show the following fields :Field1 , Field2 and Field3 .Now , when the user selects an entry in the DataGridView control , I want to insert the text from Field4 into a text box on the form .
The problem , however , is that I don't know how to get the specific row in the data base file and also I don't know how to get the text in column (field) Field4 of that row .One thing that might be important is that the index of the row in the data base file is not necessarily the same with the index of the current row in the DataGridView control . This is because in the DataGridView control the rows are order by the contents in the ID Field .ol .

I am creating a gridview and need to gather the data from various functions that return a type of IEnumerable. I've created gridviews using a dataset as a datasource, but how does one use multiple data sources(of IEnumerable) to populate one gridview? Like how do you combine all that into one dataset?

So I have a datagridview being populated with data from a database.At this point a user may or may not selected (via mouse click / key press) one or more rows within the datagridview.I need to (upon selection) create a new dataset, datatable and add rows with the some data from the said datagridview.
For example, if a table had nothing but names, e.g.
Joe
Sean
Larry
Chris
Upon the user clicking, dragging a selection over Sean and Larry to add those names to a new dataset so I can pass it to another method for further processing.

Input array is longer than the number of columns in this table.It looks like I'm either missing a column declaration or adding the table to the set?

so I had an idea today while modding a game I play. I decided to make a mod-manager.In order to start the game with mods, you have to go to the website, log in, click playnow and view the source of the html file. From there you get the sessionID variable and add it to a shortcut on your desktop. I wanted to be able to automate this process by doing the following:
on button1.click: somehow parse the source of the html file to locate the line that looks like chis:
var sessionId = 'random26charSessionID'; and take what is inside of the ' ' and add it to textbox1.text
Any ideas? Not sure if it will be in the same line every time with add banners and stuff...so I wanted to parse the doccument.

I'm fairly new to VB.NET, and I'm working on a text editor with a tabbed interface. I deal with large text files. Should I have each tab / text document open up in a new thread or a process? I basically want the entire application to always run fast as the text editor is just one part of it. If I have several large text files open I don't want the rest of the application slowing down a bit.

I'm trying to get my program to go to the memberlist.php of a phpBB2 forum and gather all the links to the members websites.
Example: [URL]
I want the program to go to that website and save all of the websites (the ones that have the "www" image) to a list inside the program. I have no idea how to do this, but that's not all, considering most forums have several pages of members (this one has 32 at the moment) it has to go through all of the pages and gather all the links from every page..

What I am trying to do is create a conosle app in vb.net 2008. I have a XML file (data_file.xml), and a template file (template.txt). The template file contains a few sentences, each one containing a placeholder which needs to be filled. I need to create multiple output files (.txt), which contains the contents of the template file, with the placeholders filled with the values of the placeholders in the XMl file.
The XML file is at the moment:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <CATALOG>
- <group>
<placeholder1>Nigel</placeholder1>
[Code] .....
As it stands, I can create one template file, containing the filled template contents using only the first group of placeholders. I am nearly there, just trying to finish the last piece of the jigsaw.

I'm currently grabbing all files in a folder and displaying them into a listview. Below is the code I'm using:
[Code]...
If you look at the "For" line, you can see that pulling all files with an extension of .txt. There are some files that I need to pul with different extensions. I tried just doing "*.", and it would grab the files with not extension, but not the txt extension.
So, I wanted to know if there was some way to just pull all files or specify more than one extension.

I have many text files in a folder. What I can do now is to read through one text at a time and insert it into the database. My little app reads a text file when I debug it. So, I need to run it several times to read all those text files and import them into the database.
My question is how to read multiple text files inside a folder at a time. Here's my code which works fine but it reads only one text files at a time.Private Sub btnRead_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnRead.Click

I am running batch jobs on a job scheduler. One of the step is called 6 times so that we can execute the step parallely (to utilize the max server resource and to execuet the step in less than 2 hours rather 6hours). At the end of each instance it has to create a text file (6 instances = 6 text files) and the next job in the queue only runs when it could find all six files,
I am trying to create 6 dummy text files using vb.net.
1. to create a text file like file1.txt, when each instance of the step is completed running and it should exit the code after a file is create.
2. In this manner the code is executed 6 times and it must produce 6 files like file1.txt ....... file6.txt.
right know the maximum code i could write was ( and this is not correct)
Public
Function CopyFile1()
As
Integer

I've created a Setup project (in VB.Net 2008 Standard Edition) and I need to deploy some .rtf files in a specific folder for the user to edit. I've added these files to the project as content files but the Setup project installs them in Program File/MyApp along with the exe. As these rtf files need to be found easily by the user I need to specify a different folder on the hard drive. These are not mdb or xls files so are not used by the app itself. All the user needs to do is find them manually loading them into MS Word for editing. I don't need to load MS Word from the app, but I do need to deploy them so the user has access to them. How do I edit the file path so it does not bury them in Common Files or the User App Data or app folder itself? Ideally, since these are rtf files they could go in My Documents. (The app itself will work whether or not these files exist elsewhere.)
