I am using the Streamwriter to send simple messages to other machines in my office. But i hit across a problem today which i never thought about. If the computer im sending the message to, doesn't have the listener running, the sender crashes out. Is there anyway to trap the error, and deal with it nicely (i.e a message box) instead of the app quiting?

I've been mostly working with VB.Net for over a year and just noticed this Am I going insane, or does VB.Net NOT have an "Unreachable code" warning? The following compiles quite happily with nary a warning or error, even though there is a return between the two writeline calls.

I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

I'm using Streamwriter for the first time with my project which consists of 2 forms. When I run the program everything works fine until I press the SAVE button on the menu bar to save the data to a txt file. At this point I get the error "conversion from string to type single is not allowed." [code]

This is the compiler error BC30201: Expression expected. The line that caused it is the Dim sw line.
These objects are derived from System.IO. I am running Visual Studio 2008. When I go to the VB object browser, I see System.IO.Log, but do not see System.IO. When I try to use Streamreander and Streamwriter in my VB programs I get an undefined error.
View 3 RepliesI have a testing platform that allows data to be posted to a real time collection system. It uses the StreamWriter object to send both HTTP and XML formats, It works fine, but there is a new request to submit uploaded files. This again works fine, unless the files are over 70k (we need to test upto 3MB). If it is over 70k, the response is the content-length too big. I have changed it so that the content-length is now set dynamically, dependant on the size of the file uploaded. However, when the StreamWriter.Close() runs, the execption The request was aborted: The request was canceled. is generated, with the InnerException Cannot close stream until all bytes are written.
From what I have found on the web, the solution is use StreamWriter.Flush(), but this code is already in place.

I would like to highlight the item in a listview that the mouse is hovering over during a drag-drop operation. I'm using a similar method for treeview that works great, but for a listview I'm having trouble. I found a C# example online, but the VB.Net equivalent did not work, unless I translated incorrectly. Here is my
VB.NET
Private Sub AddonDirList_DragOver(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles AddonDirList.DragOver Dim hoveritem As ListViewItem = AddonDirList.GetItemAt(e.X, e.Y) hoveritem.Selected = True hoveritem.EnsureVisible() End Sub
When I use this code, not only does the highlight not work, but the drag-drop operation does not work at all. Rather than the typical drag-drop mouse pointer, the circle with diagonal line pointer is shown, which is what you would normally see if the listview did not have dropping enabled.

Basically all I need is my program to write a character(Ex: "1") in a certain position specified by me in a line in a textbox.
So so far my code is:
Dim sw As IO.StreamWriter = IO.File.AppendText("101.txt")
sw.Write()
And all i need to know is how i pick the position that the .write function writes.
I have this code to send all line of a txt file to a listbox (StreamReader).

Basically this is a function I call during the program booting and it creates the necessary directory and also the LOGIN.CYS file empty... then later data can be added.My issue is that it keeps adding a line to the .cys (which is a .txt file) but I just want VB to create a plain text file with no content inside...
I'm creating a text file and, among other things, I need to write the text of the parent and child nodes of a TreeView to the file. I know how to write the contents and read them just fine, but what I can't seem to figure out is how to write the contents if I don't know how many parent nodes or child nodes there are. When I do, I usually do the following:

When there's no file path in the streamwriter constructor does anyone know the location the file gets output to?
Dim sw as StreamWriter = new Streamwriter("test.txt")sw.close
I am coming across a lot of odd and annoying problems in this program and have almost had enough lol.
I cannot figure this one out for the life of me. I have used streamwriter a hell of alot of times and never once experienced this. But basically I have a string array and I need to write the entire array to a text file with a new line for each array item. So I have gone ahead and done this:
[Code]...
However the outcome is the text file only contains 1 line and that line is the last item in the array yet I know the array has got at least 50 items in it.
Okay, this actually relates to some work I'm doing that I already have something in place. So if a change is necessary down the road, I'm in no hurry... But I did a dangerous thing and began reading. As I began reading about ways to stream file data, I became curious as to when it is a good idea to one method or the other.

I'm getting a problem when writing text files using StreamWriter. The files read fine and they write fine if I'm not overwriting an existing file. They also write ok as long as I'm not writing over a file that only has one digit at the end of the name. For some reason when there are 2 digits at the end it crashes when I'm trying to save over an already existing text file. Here's my code.
StringForTextFile = "C:" & Folder4PS & "" & IDCodewDashOrN & "Series" & Series & "ScreenNumber" & ScreenNumber & ".txt"
LblTesting.Visible = True ' Testing
LblTesting.Text = "StringForTextFile = " & StringForTextFile
[code]....
above but 've tried all the different Encoding possibilites. Unicode, UTF32, UTF8, UTF7 as well as without those parameters listed where the close parentheses is right after StringForTextFile. I get the same result. If I'm writing a new text file that doesn't exist, then no problem or if I'm writing over an existing text file but it has 0 to 9 at the end then I'm ok but if I'm writing over an existing file and there is 10 or above(haven't tried triple digits or all values) then my application crashes. You see the test label in the code above because I was looking at exactly what file it was trying to overwrite and it is just as it should be.
Should I be using a different procedure? An example of a string that would cause a crash for the string StringForTextFile would be:
C:Name of My AppSeries1ScreenNumber10.txt
If it was being written for the first time then no problem or if the 10 at the end was 0 to 9 then no problem also. I've also tried and originally had it set up where there wasn't an If File.Exists(StringForTextFile) = True Then statement. It just always used the same code whether writing or overwriting and I wasn't having a problem that I remember. For some reason I started having a problem recently and I put the alternate methods of writing in.
I have a problem with an application I have written. To keep it simple, it does heavy math calculations. If the results meet a specific criteria, it is written to a text file on a line-line-basis.The problems is, if I go look at the data files, I will find non-numeric symbols mixed in with the numbers. Sometimes it is a question mark, "?". Other times, it is control or extended characters that Notepad or Wordpad cannot display. They can be mixed into the numbers, like so: 215x7 or 8948x, where "x" is the odd character. I thought the problem may have been my use of "DataFile.Flush". I removed that, but still have the corruption.
Below are my declarations and code fragments:
Dim Number as ULong
Dim DataFile As System.IO.StreamWriter
DataFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(FilePath & fName, False)
DataFile.WriteLine(Number)
The first time I had a problem, I thought it was my use of "Cstr()" in the WriteLine statement, with "Flush" as I stated above.I do not know if this is a situation internal to VB2008, or external, like hard drive buffers writing.
I made my own advanced networking system which uses System.IO.Streamwriter and Streamreader but offline. I would like to let this use a directory online, I have a webhost available for that, now how do I say to the program it has to look at a specific map with all the users information?

Dim Log As New StreamWriter("C:/Log.Log")

When I use that, it doesnt write any new lines, it overwrites current text. How do I get it to "Log" down all the times it was closed?
