Any Way to add my .net (.exe) file to the startup by adding to registry? I also need to remove it from startup when I need it.
View 4 Repliestrying to find a decent answer for my question; I do have a utf8 file which I (down)load, manipulate and wanting to save back again.The result always is that the file I produce is not in utf8 format;
Dim fs2 As New FileStream("c: est.dat", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None)
Dim w As New BinaryWriter(fs2, Encoding.UTF8)

I'm trying to take items from a list box, add them to an array and then output the array items to a text file using Visual Basic 2008 express.
The number of items in the list is unknown so I can't set the array size to start.
Code:
Dim sWriter as IO.StreamWriter = New IO.StreamWriter("C:file_name.text")
sWriter.WriteLine("Name List")
sWriter.WriteLine(arrayListItem)

I have a structure in memory which is working fine - now I need to write this entire structure to a file.The below code almost compiles, the problem is that "mstaRecordInfo" cannot be changed to a string, probably because of the Date field. I've just spent over an hour experimenting and searching the web but have gotten no closer to a solution

I am trying to print the contents of my array to a text file, but instead of just printing whats in the array it prints all indexes even if they are empty.
this is the code i am using..
Code:

Dim intCounter As Int16
For intCounter = strFirstName.GetLowerBound(0) To strFirstName.GetUpperBound(0)

I'm trying to copy multiple files from a directory, put them into an array, then copy just the 30 newest files(I haven't coded the 30 newest loop yet). I added a list box to the following code just to ensure the all the files are storing into the array properly... they are. When it try's to copy, it renames the first file to .log, then tells me that the .log file already exist. How do I get it to copy and keep the source file name in the destination folder Eventually I'll loop this and grab only 30 of the files.
Here's the code I'm playing with:
Private Sub transferButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles transferButton.Click

I'm developing a program that captures a bunch of information entered by a user on a tab form into five different structured arrays. I want the data to be saved into a single file and reloaded by the program into a similarly built series of structured arrays through a different form.If I understand the process of serializing collections right, I create a single ArrayList variable to capture each of the five Structured arrays.[code]
1. Do I have to declare one variable of the same type as the one in the first element of the ArrayList, or does having the public variable declared in the Class that's going to take this information already cover that?
2. Once I deserialize into the newly declared Rules ArrayList in the new form, is it a simple matter of setting the duplicated variables in the new form equal to the relevant element in the ArrayList? For example, if I have a new Public Roster As RosterDesc variable declared, can I set it equal to Rules(0) and it would automatically populate every element in the same order as they were created in the original form?
I'm Writing a Problem that will allow users to move data from one Data file to the next, using a Text file. My problem is that i so far i 3 test users.
No matter what test user is logged on it seems to be Reading the first user info no matter which one is on.
How do i get it to Only Read the User Info and show it up on text file that is Currently logged on.
Code:
Imports System.IO
Public Class TestForm6
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form

if you could possibly point me to the right direction, that would be great. i have tried researching about this but found no solution.i have a 2d array which holds student name and 3 grades (eng, maths, science.)student array (24,3)Now, i would like to use the data which is held within the array to create averages.I need a total class average for: maths column, eng column, and science. I also need an overall average for all subjects.the code i have used, so far, brings some odd results.
studentarray(i,1) / count
studentarray(i,2) / count
studentarray(i,3) / count

If you take a look at my code
Code:
Private Sub CompileToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CompileToolStripMenuItem.Click
Dim SaveFile As New SaveFileDialog

What syntax do you use to add decimal data held in a NumericUpDown control, and add it to a one dimensional array? Is there a keyword to sum all the items in the array into one number(For averaging purposes)?
Dim heightarray As String()
ReDim Preserve heightarray(0 To UBound(heightarray) + 1)
heightarray(UBound(heightarray)) = heightNumericUpDown.Value
I am trying to code a delete button for a browsing program based on data from a txt file. I have coded the buttons to sort(ascending and descending), append to the text file, search the text file, but I can not seem to get the delete function working. I am using VB 2010, this is what I have so far:
Code:
Dim deleline As String
Dim line As String
Dim isFound As Boolean = False

This is what I am trying to do. I need to create some data inside my app and send it to another app as a file. But this 'file' should never be written to the hard drive. It will only ever exist in RAM.
View 17 RepliesI am making a simple application that will be able to store competition data into a text file that I have given a custom extension to on saving. Here is an example of the format that i have saved the data in.
Code:
[Comp_Name]Test Competition[Comp_Name]
[Location]Silverwood Lurgan[Location]
[Type]Teams[Type]
[Code]....
When i open the file, i want to redisplay the data in separate text boxes. Later on in the project i want to be able to search within the file for headings for example;
if "[Heat1]" is present then get all text between [Heat1] and [Heat1]
i am currently able to use the streamreader and open file dialog to retrieve the entire string of text fromthe however i am not sure how to go about getting the text between the headings I have used.
1 List all of the data from Teams.txt in a Listbox. Include suitable headings.
2 List all of the data from Results.txt in the Listbox (use the same Listbox as in 1 above).Include suitable headings. Note that you cannot assume that the file contains onlyresults for the first 3 weeks of the season. Your program should be able to process a results file with more or fewer results.
3 List all of the data from Results.txt in the Listbox. However, in this case the actual team names should be output (your program will need to get this data from Teams.txt. The data should be formatted so that it is aligned correctly. Include suitable headings.
The output might look as follows:
Home Team Away Team Home Team Goals Away Team Goals
Bunbury Braves Nedlands Nodders 5 2
I have a variable (double) that is constantly update in real time with data from an analog input. I would like to write this data as it comes in to a txt file. When I stop my acquisition of data from my analog input, I should have a txt file with all that data stored on my computer wherever I want it. The way I'd like that txt file to be laid out is like so:
Test Title: "This info comes from a string variable"
Operator Name: "This info comes from another string variable"
Test Date: "This info comes from yet another string variable"
[code].....
And so forth. As you can see I would also like to write the time for each data. This depends on my Timer interval which the user can set. The default is 50ms. So by default, y1 y2 y3 would be 0, 50, 100. How would I generate such a text file?
PS: I have five variables (X, Y, strTitle, strName, strDate)
I wish to import data (into a text box) from specified tags within an XML file.[code]Instead of loading the whole file into a text box I would like it to load data within <ABC></ABC> tags.The amount of <ABC></ABC> tags varies for each XML file. As does their placement (which line they are on).
View 2 RepliesI have about 4000 objects of a class, each object with 20 members/variables, integers and strings, total about 80000.
I would like to save these to a file, and read them back into objects when the program starts up.
How would I do this in order to keep track of each variable? I was planning to have each line in the file representing the variables of 1 object. Hence 4000 lines. But basically I'm just looking for the easiest way to save and retrieve this data. Should I first convert the objects to an array of strings?
I'm trying to create a program that checks if someone is going to Happy Hour.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to read in a file. I'm not even sure what kind of data the file contains. Is it binary, unicode, etc? Or maybe it is encryted? I doubt it is encrypted, but I really have no clue. I am pretty sure it contains geometric/drawing data. It shows most characters as boxes.I've attached a picture of the contents when I open it in wordpad. Does anyone have a clue what type this is? and how to get it into a readable format using vb.net?
View 5 Repliesfor a school project I have to write data from a listbox to a new file that a user can create. I can create and save a file no problem, but for some reason I can't write anything. I followed the textbook provided but when the file saves, I open it up and it is blank. I'm using fileWriter.WriteLine and I'm just test something basic to write to a file first and I can't do it:
Code:
Private Sub storeFileButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles storeFileButton.Click
'creates a new file
Dim result As DialogResult ' stores the file
Dim fileName As String ' name the file to save the data

Whats the most efficient way to read in moderately large data tables of constants? Im talking about maybe a few hundred items in a vector, or some 6 x 6 or 8 x 10 tables of numbers or strings, that kind of thing. (Im aware that they arent really stored in two dimensions.)In the old pre-Windows versions of Basic, wed use READ and DATA statements.In VB, we can read from an external file. I dont like to do this because something might happen to the file.
The resource file is another option. The setup is tricky, but once you get it its simple to maintain. It does involve reading strings and splitting them up to get numbers, which should be slow.Then theres the brute force method, where you just fill in the array in the source, you know,x() = {303, 279, 274, 268,} and so on for many continued lines. Some work to get everything in the right place, but one time only. I suppose that this makes the executable bigger.
I currently have a class
Code:
Public Class Customer
Public Property AccountNumber() As String
Public Property PMDue() As String
[code]....
Account Class is initialized as new customer. To save the data from each property in the Account Class, I'm currently looping thru the properties each time Account obtains new data. I tried to simplify the process by the following line...
Code:
CustomerStreamToWrite.WriteLine(Account)
This does not work as written. I figured it would be much faster. It did not write out the property data. It saved "WindowsApplication1.Customer" Not exactly what I wanted. Is there a method to get it to save the properties in a written out style by just using the class name?
I'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.

And I'm trying to write a program that read the data, filters the sections so that per line it does the bit before the brackets i.e. "S1" then a comma then the sections inside the brackets as comma separated values removing the double quotes and symbols I don't want etc. Basically dividing the separate S*'s onto different lines and separating the values with comma's. There are also other points which are a different letter than "'S" and the same to do with them to.
