I have written a program which read a file and convert it into my required format, but the problem is at the end there are three empty rows (lines) then "End of Report" message is displayed, here is my code. [code]
The code below at the moment reads a text file and then writes it out again to a different location. One thing i need to be able to do before it get written again is to scan each line and reduce any line that has more than one space in it.[code]...
I have a notepad txt file that has two columns of data. Vb reads data having one blank space (this is in column one) but ignores any other data beyond two blank spaces. in addition to being able to read the second column, I want to store the data thats in the column 2 in a separate string.
I am using save file dialogue box and i am saving the contents of richtextbox which is in the form. So i used the coding below. It only creating the empty file but not the text which i typed in the richtextbox.
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
How can I open a tab delimited text file and remove the columns that are empty and the save it? Empty columns are those that have no value in the first row.
I am working on a VB Console Application that takes an Autocad drawing type DWG and converts it to a PDF using a shell command that calls a third party application. In this case, acmecadconverter.exe from www.dwgtool.com. Then the PDF that is created needs a unique watermark, so I call a second application for that called pdftk.exe from www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/.
Everything works as intended, except when I try file names that contain spaces. The file system object does not tolerate spaces in the drawing file name. For instance, the following command gives me a system.io.filenotfoundexception...
I just changed a control on a form from a masked textbox to a normal textbox because I wrote my own code to validate the data. I'm trying to clear the leading spaces that were created for this column in an Access database using the LTrim function and it doesn't work for some reason. The column is " :30" in the table and when I LTrim it and save the changes, it's still " :30" , not ":30". Is that leading entry not a space character?
In my program, I get an rtf file (which I load through a Rich-TextBox), and need to format it a bit: I need to remove certain spaces, from certain lines.
I have some HUGE text files (easily around 2000+ lines) I need to clean where some of the formatting is like this:
CODE:
Of course there are more than 2 words in the lines, but what I said was just an example. I have to clean these files and I just want to know how to delete the whole line after the spaces (including the gibberish), but I don't want to delete the spaces in between the words that need to stay.
I was thinking I could test for 2 or more spaces and if that's true then delete the rest of the line beginning at the first space. The only issue is there are tabs sometimes between the words and I don't want to mess with those right now. (I have no clue how to make source that deletes spaces but not tabs... Perhaps you can single out tabs?)
Because of the formatting to make the text files look "cleaner" there are sometimes 5 (least) - 8 spaces (max) between each some words. So should I check for 9 spaces? (1 more than 8). There seriously are huge amounts of spaces between the words and the gibberish.
I'll worry about formatting the text and what not later, right now I'm only asking for help with the spaces and gibberish issue .
I'm usually a C++ man, not used to VB.NET (2005) but I will only be using this project for cleaning these files and the dialogs are much easier to make than MFC for C++. So I figured this would be much faster and easier (except I have very little experience with VB.NET)
how do I validate that only letters and spaces have been entered into a text box.
Here is a sample of my
Private Sub btnWrite_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnWrite.Click, mnuWrite.Click If Not txtName.Text Like "[a-z][A-Z]" Then MessageBox.Show("Please enter your name using letters and spaces", "Error") txtName.SelectAll()
I am trying to remove all spaces from a text field when a form is submitted so that the contents of the post code field match those in a database...
If drSet5c.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("post_code") = UCase(Replace(tbPostcode.Text, " ","")) Then response.write("Postcodes match")
[Code]....
So if the postcode in the database is AB12CD and the user types AB1 2CD the space is removed on submitting the form and the match statement shows. This is not working though.
VB 2010 SOLVED: 1: How can i let the spaces from a text automatically dissappear?Like when I paste 999 277 883 it turns out to 999277883 without a click.
2: Is it possible to click on a link in WebBrowser1 and make the clicked link appear in WebBrowser2?
how would I get a list of ip's and then have all the ip's gather into a rich text box with breaks in-between them? I have tried searching some older threads.

Ive been reading up on the split function on Msdn but grasp how if I had a text in textbox1 it would remove all spaces and textbox1.text and is split the easiest method?
I have a command button that when presed allows the user to rename a label on a control ( form ) b4 its loaded.i want to put a command in the forms load event to take out any spaces b4 text in label1.
OK, SO i have this program that outputs all the servers on a specific game. It outputs it to a text file. HOWEVER, There is a lot of annoying spaces. This is kind of hard to explain, so ill try to explain it. This is what The text file looks like.
I've started a reader for map files for a small turn based game.However, when it attempts to create a tiles string array, but tiles(0,1) through to tiles(0,9) all precede the filename (3.jpg) with a space.
Normal path: C:\path\tiles\3.jpg Path with rogue spaces (that I can't figure out how to remove): C:\path\tiles\ 3.jpg
Code to read from the file ---------------------------------- Imports System.IO Public Class Form1
I am just adding validation into a new winform. I am using the validating and validated events, in conjunction with an error provider control.No problem with first validation (ie. if user enters more than 12 characters). Error is set in validating event, and error stays until user enters 12 or less characters. Validated event is then entered and error is reset to empty string.
However, there is a problem with the 2nd validation on same text box. The code checks for zero length in text box.. and sets error with provider. Watching in the debugger, this code is indeed invoked, and error is set ok. Then something weird happens, the validated event is (unexpectedly) fired, and the code there promptly resets the error. Why is the validated event fired when there is already an error set ? This seems like a .NET bug. Can anyone suggest another way of doing this, or say what I am doing wrong ?
