Reading An XML File - Part III
Apr 27, 2009
The following code reads an XML file and selects the CREDIT_SCORE node with the lowest value. Works fine if there is always a CREDIT_SCORE node. However, I get runtime errors if a PLUS_BORROWER node does not always have a CREDIT_SCORE child node (especially the first PLUS_BORROWER). I added /CREDIT_SCORE to the end of the XPath (and removed scoreNode references) and now it always selects the minimum CREDIT_SCORE. But I do not get the PHONE_NBR.
First - getting the minimum CREDIT_SCORE in a single XPATH is my primary need. And adding the /CREDIT_SCORE to the XPATH accomplishes this.[code...]

Excuse my semantics, I am trying to get the idea across but do not know XML terminology.There are multiple occurances of the PLUS_BORROWER data. I want to save the each of the Credit_Score (793 in this example) and DAYTIME_PHONE_NBR when the Type (Primary in this example) and SOCIAL_SECURITY_NBR are certain values.Then I want to execute a loop and extract the Credit_Score and Daytime_Phone_Nbrs.
HTML
<PLUS_BORROWER Type="Primary">
<SOCIAL_SECURITY_NBR>123459999</SOCIAL_SECURITY_NBR>

I have a text file to read.It contain two part: Bottom and top i must read the top part first and match that line with bottom part. and write all the matching lines in another file. The thing that i must matc is from the value in () and from bottom value []. For example the value must Be like this (1234)[1234]. After i find out the values i must copy the whole line from both part than write to another file. For know i can read the value in() from top part copy the whole line but from bottom part i only can get value in[] and can not get whole line from bottom part.

im making an application in vb.net (duh!) anyway i have created and coded the whole project and it performs exactly as i want it to (i dont need code help). my problem lies with the fact that my project is 2-3 parts
1.a setup form that gathers inital data about the enviroment stores this data encrypted in a config file. after inital setup this form is not displayed again. but needs to be run on both computers
2. the second form is the real application form im in the process of turning this part in to a background service anyway this form is the one that establishes the connection between two nodes it works correctly
3. the config files
anyway here is my problem i want to make this application distributional with just one file the (.exe) and have this .exe make everything else happen. it runs the setup form and creates the first config file which it does then it needs to produce a copy of just the second form and the config file to transfer to workstation #2 that will run independtly without the whole application which i cant make happen then it needs to turn both workstations application on by only starting one on either computer and invoke the other computer to start its corrosponding app also no idea how to make this happen any ideas or suggestions as to where to look to try to find my answers.im thinking i might need to make two seperate applications (a setup app, and the running app) and include them both in a project and use the setup.exe to to package them together this is a little side project that im making for my self to use to make programming a little easier so i plan on giving it out to some fellow students to test and tell me what they think so im not really worried about ease of use or complicated procedures yet but if it turns out to work and actually be of use to anyone else i would be willing to rewrite it to distribute to the masses but for now i just want it to work for me.

So i have an .ini file where one of the lines is for the output of a file. i need to substitute the current output in the file with a filepath that is stored in my vb app (named filepath). so i need a snippet that will open the ini file, find the correct line, and place my variable in there. ill paste in what the ini file looks like
[PDF Printer]
output=C:\Users\bobbyt\Desktop\test.pdf
confirmoverwrite=no
[Code]....
its not code so i suppose i shouldn't place tags around it. so that first line needs to have my new filepath in it.

I need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
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?

I am working on an assignment where I need to have a product list that is loaded into a list box upon the form loading. This is generated from a txt file in the /debug folder upon loading. Now my question is how do I have the product names show up in the list box when there are 3 separate parts to each product. The product, the cost, and the quantity in inventory, and all I want to show up is the product in the listbox, where the rest show up elsewhere.
CODE:
'This procedure loads the data for the array from txt file. As well as loading the Product.txt file into the system when the program loads.

I would like to include a tutorial with my project. It will be located under the Help menu. Problem is, that I don't know how to open a file because the user can install it wherever they want. How can I include the word document file as part of the project so the code can open it no matter where it's installed? -Nothing to see. Move along.

I did some research on this and most sites say that the permissions need Read/Write access for the asp.net user. I tried this and I still receiver the error. Here is the error:

I want to make an option to load a playlist file into a textbox.. To do this i guess i will need the OpenFileDialog and Streamreader..
Untill further i have done this
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Playlist files|*.pls;*.asx"
[Code]....
I want to be able to read ONLY the link from the file.. In the first file above it would be after the "File1=" text in the file.. And in the other file it should be whats written after the "<ref href="" part..
And as you see in the second file there are three links, so to start with it should only read the first line, maybe later i could make a selection window popup or something..

I have a small program that is used for managing media libraries for some software front-ends. Basically, it reads in the files of a directory and, one-by-one, creates a new directory by each file name and moves the respective file into the new folder.Everything works well, but I am wanting to extend the functionality a bit.I would like to include multi-part file detection so that titles that are named as such:
movie-disc1.avi
movie-disc2.avi
would be moved into a single folder named movie. The files would not be renamed.As of now, I simply have an option that will allow the user to ignore certain files that match a regex pattern:
Dim m As Match = Regex.Match(IO.Path.GetFileName(filePath), "(.*?)([ _.-]*(?:cd|dvd|p(?:ar)?t|dis[ck]|d)[ _.-]*[0-9]+)(.*?)(.[^.]+)$")

I 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?
