I have already made it to delete the item from the listbox but I don't know how to get it to delete that same line from the text file so it doesn't just display it again when you reopen the dialog. Any help? I am using streamwriter and streamreader.

How would i go about reading a file Line by Line that within that line The values are delimited by " Example of the data:

"steve" dog" "6789"
I've started this with this code but not sure how to go about the next stage:
Using MyReader As New _
Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "Records28112011.jd")

I'm reading a text file with StreamReader, line by line. If a condition is met, then I do an operation and then start reading the file again from the first line. I realize I could close and then re-open the file, but surely this would be very slow.
I could do this easily in VB6, but pulling my hair out trying to do this in vB.net. It seems that 'Seek' is the function to use, but it doesn't work.
I've seen other examples, where it works, but you must open it a different way -- with a file number.
Imports System.IO
Dim I as Integer
Dim LineText as String

My problem is the last, how can i completely remove the file content, and write another string in it, writer.writeline just appends a line.

Hello there!
I have a program that reads a text file tab delimted using OLEDb I need to be able to allow the user to insert a user created record into the file which I can do. The problem is I need to be able to let the user edit that record. From my understanding you can not edit or delete with OLEDB only insert So I thought I would read the file using stream reader, find the line I want to edit and just delete it, rewrite the file, then let the user insert a new record?

If someone has a better way to perform this operation I am open its just the best way I could find with my limited knowledge and the reading and researching I have been doing thus far.
So I am trying to step-by step and first read the file which seems to work then find the line that would need to be deleted. So I was trying to use the
line.startswith method. I am using msgbox to see if that works before I continue but it doesnt seem to work I know my file has several lines starting with "Active" but my msgbox returns "False"
