File I/O And Registry :: Reading From Reg. And Displaying In Listbox
Mar 6, 2010I'm trying to read multiple values from a registry subkey in the CurrentUser key. I need to display these values in a listbox with multiple lines. I so far can only get one of the values from the subkey. I know (or at least I think I know) that I need to list the values in a string (with a possible loop), and then just display the string to the listbox. The subkey is the TypedURLs under CurrentUserSoftwareMicrosoftInternet Explorer Typed URLs. Here is my code I have so far (I did a year of basic VB as part of my Uni course).[code]

Reading TXT File And Display Into ListBox Generate Empty Item
Aug 19, 2009I am reading a txt file and displaying the contents into a listbox but it generates an empty listbox item at the bottom of the listbox. I am splitting the textfile each time it finds a new line in the txt file;
.Split(vbNewLine)
The problem there is always a blank line in the txt file at the end and so generates a blank list item. How can I remove this blank list item from the listbox? Is it best to try to remove the blank line from the txt file first or the empty list item from the listbox after the file has been read?
VS 2005 Reading Lines Of A File, Adding Them To Listbox, And Then Looping?
May 17, 2009I have a form with a listbox. I'm adding items to the listbox through a file that I saved.

Reading Text From A Text File Into A Listbox
Dec 15, 2010I'm a little new to VB, and I'm in a class for it, but I'm trying to do something we aren't going to learn in the class (mostly out of sheer interest) and I need help. I'm trying to read lines from a text file into a listbox, each line representing a new item on the listbox. For example, if the text file reads: [code]I want to be able to take that as is and read it into a listbox, where those words would appear in the exact same fashion; as a list, each as separate items. I've looked at the Help stuff and learned (sorta) about delimiters... but the thing is I don't want to write my entire list in a continuous line separated by commas--I want it to keep reading each line, and moving on to the next, until there are no more lines left. I am thoroughly stumped, and would appreciate it SO much if someone could help. For a frame of reference, this is the point I'm at now with my code: [code]Note that when I run the program, all it will do is read the first line of text available and stop; once I press ENTER in a text file, it decides to stop reading.

Reading Strings In Textfile And Adding Them In A Listbox?
Jan 6, 2012I can retreive all items in my notepad but when I am adding them up in my listbox, and trying to print them in the console. I can only display two strings. I don't know why. My string is a combination of a name, space & score. ex: "luke 300". That is the pattern of all strings per line in my text file. I am separating the name and the score using space as the indicator. When ever a space is found, string before and after the space is retrieved and added to the listbox
Here is my

Reading TXT Files From ListBox And Removing Set Of Words
Feb 20, 2011Currently, my application will send the contents of a directory into a list box.
Dim folderDlg As New FolderBrowserDialog
folderDlg.ShowNewFolderButton = True
If (folderDlg.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK) Then
ListBox1.Text = folderDlg.SelectedPath
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(folderDlg.SelectedPath)
[Code] .....
For now, all that is inside the directory is a text file. I would like my program to read the contents of the text file and remove a set of common words, but I don't really know how to move forward here. Would it be best to create a class that holds a set of words that I would like to remove, then loop through the text file, remove any words that match those inside my class and then write what's left to a new .txt file?

Visual Basic 2008: Reading From Textfile Into Array And Then Presented In Listbox?
Jan 7, 2012I've got the following txt file:
[code]...
Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:
[code]...
Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...
My questions are:
1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns
2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )
Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)

Here's what I know:
1. how to open a new file
2. how to specify the record length
3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?

Perform Two Hashing Operations Concurrently On A Single File Without Reading The File Twice?
May 18, 2011I want to perform two hashing operations concurrently on a single file, without reading the file twice. Is there some way to share the FileStream between two synchronized hashing threads? For example:
Dim Stream As New IO.FileStream("...", IO.FileMode.Open)
Dim HashA, HashB As Byte()
Dim A = New System.Threading.Thread(Sub()
[code]....
Maybe some way of caching a stream? Trouble is, I don't want the entire file in memory at once (it could be many gigabytes in size) and I don't want the file read more than once, due to speed issues. I want the file cached only sufficiently to ensure that both threads can work.For example, suppose at some point in time, thread A had read 100k of the file, but thread B had only read 20k of the file. The portion of the file between 20k and 100k should be cached; but then progressively forgotten as thread B catches up. Then again, if thread B is too slow, we might still end up with hundreds of megabytes being cached.Maybe thread A should be made to wait while thread B catches up. Maybe the ReadByte() function of the stream should block for a while if one of the threads is too far behind?
