I have written a small application that uses a dictionary file (txt file) which is stored in named directory currently.Can I embed the txt file into the project, so that i can distribute to people and not have the need for a separate text file.If this isn't possible, How do i publish the application so that it includes the txt file?

View 2 RepliesI'm providing a link button in my page (which contains a datagrid) so that when the user clicks on it they will be able to see the contents of the datagrid in a separate excel file. I provide the user with the option of attaching documents while they use my application. I would want that particular attachment to be embedded into excel document along with other contents. I don't want to specify the link(location) where the attachment is present.Instead I would need the attached document itself to be embedded into the excel file.

I'm trying to include a few text files in my project. These files are read and used to make decisions in the program. Ordinarily, I would just set the file path and open the file via StreamReader, no problem. However, this application now needs to work on other computers and I want to include the text files in the application directory. I've researched two ways to do this:
1) Include the files as resources and reference them via my.resources.
I've gotten this to work ok, except the files are opened as strings upon starting the application. They are fairly large files, which I imagine is taking a lot of unnecessary memory. Also, StreamReader wont work with these files as resources,
or at least I can't figure out how to. My application is already based around using StreamReader so I don't really want to change this.
2) Include the files as additional items. I know how to do this too, but I can't reference the files programmatically.
Can I use a resource text file via StreamReader or how would I reference the files if they're included in my project directory?
I have no code specifically for this part of my project just saying this ahead of time.I have not used text files that are inside my project but I want to be able to open the file when I load my form and save it when I close my form.I know how to save manualy and same with opening but that defeats the purpose this has to do as much as possible on its own.All I have are code from a project I made a while back which was a notepad program.[code]however I need this to all happen on its own and it needs to install these text files with the program hence why they are in with the project there are about 30 text files that will need to be with it so if I can get help with one then I can figure the rest out.
View 3 RepliesSo there's lots of examples of how to do this if your text file happens to be in XML format. However, my text file is not in XML format and as it contains over 172,000 rows I'm not that keen on adapting it (it's a dictionary)! The text file has been included in the project as a resource.
So far I've got a DataGridView (could use a DataRepeater if easier?), a BindingSource and a DataSet.
The DataSet has a DataTable already defined in the designer with one column.I've managed to load the text file into a String and then create a StringReader based on that String variable, however I cannot find anyway of loading those strings into the DataTable.
Dim listWords As String = My.Resources.WordList Dim strReader As New System.IO.StringReader(listWords)
'What now???There are some examples of using OleDb functionality but all assume you're loading from a text file residing somewhere in the filesystem, not a project resource.(I'm also assuming that on building the application the resources get embedded (somewhere) rather than being accessed from [AppDir]/Resources/[filename] ??)
I have a text file pwd.txt comma delimited, I added in project resources, now i want to read,edit and insert in text file.

I'm using VB 2008. I'm making a project which stores patients name, reason for visit etc in a text file using filestreaming like:

Dim textfile As New StreamWriter(fs)
Is there any way the doctor can literally open up the text file by a click of a button. I don't mean like : read all lines or a STREAMREADER.I want to physically be able to open the text file which is located on the computer harddrive so the doctor can read it.
