VS 2008 Writing Text Boxes To Files / Formatting And Headers?

May 29, 2011

I'm working on my very first VB 2008 Express program, having a little bit of experience with VB 6.For my first VB 2008 program, I'm starting out simple. I have two text boxes, named Title and Director.You input text into each text box.I also have a button named GENERATE, which generates a text file named c.est.txt and stores the text box material.[cod]I know how to do this with VB 6, but not with VB 2008, and my research hasn't come up with an explanation of how to format this correctly.So how do I revise this code so that there is a line for each text box string, how do I get rid of the System.Windows.Forms.TextBox stuff and replace it with my own headers, and how do I double-space between lines?

File I/O And Registry :: VB 2008 Express: Formatting A .txt File Written To A .txt File?

Jan 22, 2009

I have a program that can save to a .txt file.The issue is I need it to be done in a tab delimited way.Basically:

TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>
TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>

I have this so far, but all it does is put the TextBox1.Text next to TextBox2.Text

Code:
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*"
Dim FileWriter As StreamWriter
Dim results As DialogResult

File I/O And Registry :: VB 2010 Formatting Data In Text File?

May 4, 2012

1 List all of the data from Teams.txt in a Listbox. Include suitable headings.

2 List all of the data from Results.txt in the Listbox (use the same Listbox as in 1 above).Include suitable headings. Note that you cannot assume that the file contains onlyresults for the first 3 weeks of the season. Your program should be able to process a results file with more or fewer results.

3 List all of the data from Results.txt in the Listbox. However, in this case the actual team names should be output (your program will need to get this data from Teams.txt. The data should be formatted so that it is aligned correctly. Include suitable headings.

The output might look as follows:

Home Team Away Team Home Team Goals Away Team Goals
Bunbury Braves Nedlands Nodders 5 2

Converting C++ Printf Formatting To / From String Formatting

Sep 30, 2010

I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?

Save A XML File Without Any Formatting?

Jan 26, 2011

know if XMLDocument.Save method can save a XML file without any formatting (unindented and without CRLFs)?

The reason for that is that XML files I work with are about 300Mb in size and indentation eats quite a lot of disk memory.

ASCII Text Formatting - TextBox To File?

Oct 22, 2010

So I'm using a plain TextBox to display output from an ongoing background process. I've created a 'report string' that displays in my textbox like it has 3 columns; there's a VariableName, a VariableValue, and a VariableEffect (showing how applying that variable to the process affected it).In my textbox, any VariableValue entry that has 17 or greater characters gets 1 tabstop between Value and Effect; any entry 16 or less gets 2 tabstops, and any value 7 or less gets 3 tabstops which very neatly lines up the 3 columns.

Writing Array Of File Names To Text File

Mar 11, 2010

I am attempting to gather a group of file names from a directory. I am able to do this. I tested the code by having the list populate into a listbox and all desired items were added to the list.

Here is my code:
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(strPath)
Dim dir1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.txt")
Dim dFiles As IO.FileInfo
ListBox.Items.Add(dFiles)

However, a listbox is not my desired output. I am attempting to write these file names to a text file for purposes of then parsing the information to a datatable to compare with another datatable. How to get my filenames written to a textfile.

Formatting Decimal Field For Text File Write Out

Mar 25, 2009

I have a VB Application that is loading an Array with Numbers from the Sequel Server that have numbers 315054 no cents and leaving the .00 off even numbers. I need to write out the number to a textfile that has 14 zero's to the left removing the decimal point from the number.

The Number should format and be written out like this:
00000031505400 in the text file.

My coding does this as long as the even number has a decimal point .00 but if the number comes in as 315054 into my array my coding gives an Argument error with the coding below.
SCreditTextBox1 = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right("00000000000000" & Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left(_sData(Irow, 7), _sData(Irow, 7, ".") - 1) & _
Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right(_sData(Irow, 7), 2), 14)
Is there a way to check for no decimal point and then place the number with no .00 as 00000031505400?

The accounting people are entering the numbers into the server this way incorrectly. The .00 is suppose to be entered with it, but not all even numbers are entered this way without .00, just a few, but I need to check the number to see if there are decimals and without decimals do something. Could my coding be re-written to account for not having the .00 and to format the number correctly to avoid the argument error?

I need for any number to format with:
$3,000.00 would appear in server as 3000 or 3000.00 and should write out like this below: I need to check for decimals and without decimals and writeout the format like this below:
00000000300000.

Writing File/Folder Sync Prog, Result Text Boxes Not Updating Untill After All File Action Is Done Even Though Update Code Comes Before Copy?

Apr 12, 2011

I am working on a program using VB.Net 2010 which will enable me to setup groups of files & folders for back up with syncing capabilities etc. I have a concept program which is based on some sample code I found out in one of the VB.Net forums. I have modified it from a command line based program to a form based program. At the moment I consider this code to be a "concept" program which once I have the various copy/sync routines developed and debugged will be integrated in to another program I wrote for
creating "Back Up" groups to automate the process. There are some 3rd party programs that do similar things that I want to do such as Microsofts Sync Toy, but none of them offer the grouping and exclusions options that I am going to program in to this backup/sync program.

So here is my problem, I have the included code taking two folders, a source and a destination, and copying everything from the source to the destination. It will skip over any unchanged files/folders and will delete anything found in the destination folder that is not found in the source folder and it will update all files in the destination folder that have a newer version in the source folder. In other words it will mirror image the source to the destination but will be smart enough not to copy unchanged items from the source to the destination thereby saving a lot of time. The sync part of the program is working fine, the displaying of the progress and results is not.

Code:

'creates a new file
Dim result As DialogResult ' stores the file
