I've been searching around these forums for quite a while now, and can't seem to either understand or find what I'm looking for.I have a text file, that my program is always adding to it, it's format is like so:
Line 1: UserName (For User 1)
Line 2: FilePath (For User 1)
Line 3: UserName (For User 2)

I'm having trouble trying to put together some code for an array. What I'm trying to do is get data entered from a text box and store it in an array.What I then need to do is take the entered data and make it appear in reverse order to what it's been entered and show this.
View 6 RepliesI have a whole bunch of information that has been parsed from a web page and i want to insert the data into a multi-demensional array and the compare the data of a certain array element to another array in the same format to determine which is missing/added.So if i have this:
Type of animal | Color | Age
Cat, Brown, 15
Dog, Pink, 6
Fish, Orange, 4
[code].....
I only want to compare the type of the animal and the color and age is irrelevant.I want it to let me know whats missing and what's been added.Sounds bizarre but yeah. It doesn't need to be arrays, it's the only thing i know of though.
I have a piece of code written in Visual Basic:
Dim n As Double, i As Integer
n = 4
Dim Ramp_length(1 To 4) As Double
For i = 1 To n
Ramp_length(i) = Cells(13 + i, 5)
'Cells(65 + i, 7) = Ramp_length(i)'
Next i
Is there a way I can reproduce the result without declaring the array with a "fixed" length? I eventually want the code to read off a column of data with unknown length and store it in an array of equal or smaller length so it can be altered.

I am trying to store 8 separate pieces of information in a text file (like a database) [but not a SQL database], consisting of integers and strings. How would I use an array to do this? Will an array collect data from text boxes (I also want to display the 8 pieces of information in separate boxes). also how would I save the text file so I can open it again or open a different text file (database?), from within the program?
EDIT: I see I need to use readline and writeline to read/write from a text file but how would I find specific data to show in my boxes?
My xml files were looking a bit clumsy when i read them, what i have done now is to save them in the xml in this format:
vb.net <field>{value1|its partner value2}</field>
i noticed {|} this is the format that vb.net uses for arrays, i was wondering if that's an ok way to store things, on retrieval once i get the node value, what would be the best way to break up the {value1|it's partner value2} variables to use, explode the | and get parts (0) and (1)?
In the program I'm working on, there is a 'sign-in' form that pops up for the user to enter first name, last name, and DOB. What I want to do is STORE that information in a text file for FUTURE use by the program (i.e. displaying a list of all previous users of the program).I already know how to use streamwriter to write text to a file, but I would like for the text file to be stored within the program files and also for a new user's data to be appended to that file every time.
Do I simply add the text file to the project files? When I do that, its path is 'My Documents'. How will that affect the program when I publish it? I guess I just don't yet understand what happens when the program is finished and published. The code for the 'Submit' button on the sign-in form is pasted below. At the bottom, I've put a comment to indicate where I want to store the data to a file.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

View 2 RepliesI'm rewriting a legacy application in .NET. In the earlier version, I used a few control .INI files that could be edited by the advanced user to provide variation in certain program options. (The program also permitted override of these same variabes via menus and such.) I used the API functions to read the .INI files and rewrite them to alter the user's environment for subsequent runs.
View 19 RepliesI created a simple database and I want to learn how can to store my data in it so if I uninstall my application. I can protect the data from deleting then I can use it again when I reinstall the application. The second question is: Can I make a file with special extension for my application so I can save it in my flash drive?
View 7 RepliesHere is what I would like to do:
- Store string data from a 'sign in' form into a text file. This text file must be one that is saved even after the user exits the program. The text file must also be one that will stay with the program even after it is published (executable).
- Be able to write to/read from the file for purposes of displaying some or all of that data on a form.
I use an Application Setting to do this - of type 'Specialized String Collection'. I tried this, but for some reason I could not get it to work. It was a good idea, but I need to be able to SEE the data that has been saved, and with a setting it seems like that is not easily done. I've decided that I either need to use a simple text file or a 1-table database for this. I would prefer just a text file, but in either case, it needs to be part of the .exe when published.
I have added a text file to my project, but I am not sure if it will be "included" in the project when I publish it. The path of the file I've added is in 'My Documents', but in my code, I will have to specify the path in order to use Streamwriter. How will this affect the program when I publish it? I felt the need to make a new thread because on my last one we had been mainly talking about settings, and I've decided that isn't the best option for me.

View 3 RepliesI need to construct a small program that "stores" entered test scores into the program then when a button is clicked, it will display the scores with the appropriate names in the box below. The values are the names "Brian" "james" "jimmy" "jock" and "gok" and there are two test scores "main test" "small test".. I need to be able to "store" these in a "database" and then when the user clicks "show marks" it displays all the names with the marks in a table format. I'm totally screwed and i dont know where to start..I already have done a little coding for the gui such as a password entering system and all that works, all I need now is this storing thing.
View 5 Repliesnote, this is homework. It's not worth much, but i really need to learn how to store things in arrays. my biggest confusion is that i have no idea how to store something in an array, have the program run again andcontinuouslybuild the array andthen display the array in its current state (by like clicking a display poll button) and then still allow it to build more once more data is entered.Here's the whole assignment. I don't really understand how to start it and the problem above is my biggest frustration!ite a Visual Basic application that can be used to determine the best Super Bowl commercial. The choices are as follows: Budweiser, FedEx, E*Trade, and Pepsi. The application should allow for the user to enter a voter's name, gender and select a commercial from a list.
Create a Vote structure that will contain the voter's first name, last name, gender and the selected commercial. Each time a vote is entered, the information should be added to an array of Vote structures.Provide the ability to save your data to a sequential access file. The program should also be able to read an existing file of vote data into an your array of Vote structures. Doing so, should eliminate any data that may have already been in the array.

Recently I started a project with the goal being to have text that was inputted into a textbox stored within a three dimensional jagged array. The idea is that every time a button is pressed, whatever text that is inputted into the textbox is split into separate elements, where each word occupies its own element in the array. So for example, if a poem were entered into the textbox and the button clicked, each word of the poem would be assigned to a discrete element in the vertical dimension, and each line of the poem assigned an element in the horizontal dimension. After the text is stored into the 3D jagged array, the text should be cleared from the textbox and a counter should then ensure that on the next button press, the new text inputted into the textbox is stored in a discrete element of the array. Below is the code I have written so far, but I know that I am far from having anything might accomplish what I have just described.

I have a list of names in a database and what i want is to get all of these names and display them in a label or a text box to the user on the website. I have tried to do this using a for loop but it is always overwriting the label each time. I have a list of 10 different names in the database and what it is doing is putting the first name in the label and then overwriting this with the second name and so on until it reaches the last name. I think i need to store each of the names from the database into an array or an arrayList and then make the label display all of the contents from the array or arrayList. The for loop i have used for this is:
Dim g As SQLadmin = New SQLadmin()
g.DB("SELECT nameOfPerson FROM Persons")
For i As Integer = 0 To g.array.GetLength(0) - 1
[code]....
i can select the names from the database and store them in an array then make the label display each of the names.
