1.In my program I have 2 textboxes.In first textbox user need to put some number.Let's say he put number 10, then in other textbox program need to write numbers from 1 - 10, like this:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
If he put 20 in first textbox, in second textbox it should be:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20
2.I need to do this...Import text file to listbox.Export items in listbox as text file.
I am starting to learn reading and writing to textfiles. One quick problem. My code here
'Read is the variable that will read the kp.txt file"
Dim read As IO.StreamReader
read = IO.File.OpenText("C:2/kp.txt"[code].....
however when it is read into the listbox those 3 words appear on one line in listbox
How can i make it so that each line of the textfile is placed in each line on the listbox?
I've got a program which displays data in a listbox in five columns. All are separated using one or more ControlChars.Tab. I want to write these columns to a text file, however, when I do, my columns lose their alignment. I can change alignment so that it displays nicely in text file, but then it is off in list box. Is there a way to get what I see in my listbox to display the same way in a text file - maybe a different way of separating my columns (not using ControlChars.Tab)?
View 7 RepliesI'm using the SaveFileDialog to save listbox info into a text file. The files save fine, but when you go to save the file, if you hit the cancel button, it will overwrite the previous file you saved, because it's name was the same and it seems to save the previous file as the new name for your next file. Is there any way to catch if the user clicks cancel, and then exiting the sub if they did?
View 2 RepliesI have a text file and a list box. what Im wondering is how I would get the listbox to list the text from the text file. sure, easy, but wait! in my text file, I listed web addresses and dates with tags in front of them. for example my file would be like: [Code] what would the best way of reading the tags and displaying it right in the list box?
View 2 RepliesI'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.

The homework assignment goes like this: write a menu-driven program to manage an employee list. the names should appear in the listBox when the form is loaded. When a name in the listBox is highlighted the name and number txtBoxes are loaded with the correct name and employee number. Use the Update menu items--modify,add,delete to edit the listBox items.When the Exit menu item is clicked the new employee list should be written to the text file and the program should terminate.
Well, the first part was completed successfully, but when I tried to delete a name and number I recieved an error box that said "InvalidOperationException was unhandled", "sequence contains no elements" that pointed to line 35. msdn and help were no help, talked about dataset tables? Did I use the incorrect syntax? Once I resolve this issue, the other two--modify,add should be similar, but then how do I reconstruct the text file so that it will properly load the next time the form is loaded?

So i have a text file that is created in the program which can be loaded back into the program(game save)
Whatever is in the text file "stats" should be listed in listbox1 in the same order it is in the text file. The same with "items" in listbox2. And then "quests" will be in listbox3.
The problem is when i load it instead of what is in the text file it says...
note that box3 is correct that it has nothing in it.

I have been working on this for quite some time now. I have a listbox that loads the names from a .txt file. When the user selects names I need it to delete the items from the list. I have the code to remove it from the listbox, but when I reload the form it puts them back in because it's reading the file.

I want to append a text file with items from a listbox. I tried to search for a code to do that, but couldn't find anything(most likely I don't know what I am looking for). But I wrote this code and got it to work, but after looking at the code, it looks sloppy and I'm sure could have bugs I didn't catch....my question is, is there a better code than the one I made, or will my code work fine. I am eager to write code correctly, not just get the code to work.

View 7 RepliesI need to write data from a list box to an lsv text file. I can do that if I rea an entire line at a time and write it out, but the data in the listbox are columnated.For example:Cey,Ron 50 75 75 66.67would be an entire line from the listbox. It was entered into the listbox by reading an lsv text file and using format string to set up column info, but I don't know how to read it back out by column, only by entire line.

If I need to load several text files into different arraylists, especially if the textfiles have a lot of lines, this process is very slow. Too slow for my current app to work smoothly, actually.
So, is there any faster ways to load a text file into an arraylist? Or if there isn't, is there some quick way to easily access and change data that is on a particular line in a textbox, so that I don't have to load the text file into an arraylist?
