Oct 18, 2010

I am trying to create a textfile and write some lines into the textfile. However, the code that i am using can only write when the textfile is already created in the directory.

For this case, can i actually allow my script to search if a textfile is being created, if not create a textfile ???

Dim pathdir As String = "C:workingdir est.txt"
If System.IO.File.Exists(pathdir) = True Then
Dim objWriter As New StreamWriter(pathdir)

Feb 8, 2011

I am writing a Marketing email program so we can email news letters and the lke to customer listed in our database.One part of the application is a email templates page. On this there is a tabpage. Tab1 has a textbox and teb2 has a browser window.The user pastes/write HTML code in to the text box and it displays the formatted email/html in the browsers window.

The users just want to edit the text from time to time and within VS.NET and TEXPAD the html code is colour coded depending on the html tags.I guess this can not be done in my textbox1 but can it be done in a rictextbox and text_change event?

.Net - Writing To Textfile From A Textbox?

Nov 7, 2010

just another little problem here! Trying to write a quiz for a college portfolio and having trouble with writing to a .txt textfile. On one form(form4.vb), I have a listbox that picks up the information held within a notepad textfile called "usernames" which contains names of quiz users. When written in manually to this textfile, my listbox picks it up fine, however, on a different form(form3.vb), I have a textbox where a user inputs their name, this is supposed to go to the "usernames.txt" textfile to be picked up by the listbox on the other form but instead, it does not write anything at all and if there is already text on this textfile, it wipes it all out.I also have to use the application.startup path instead of the usual C:my documentents etc so i would have to begin with something like this: (Note: code is a little mixed up due to messing around with different variations but this is just a example)

Copying Lines From Tab Delimited TextFile?

Apr 26, 2009

I have a tab delimited text file as so :
name loan period loan amount
John 5 years 6000
Sarah 5 years 6000
Jane 1 month 100

I'm looking to copy the lines where "loan period" = "5 years" to where "loan period" = "1 month", in order to show the comparison. The new lines would be appended at the end of the resulting file. The ultimate end result I hope to achieve is this :
name loan period loan amount
John 5 years 6000
Sarah 5 years 6000
Jane 1 month 100
John 1 month 100
Sarah 1 month 100

I've been toying about this with Visual Basic .Net, and so far, this is what I've come up with
Dim strData As String
Dim i As Short
Dim strLine() As String
lngSize = 0
FileOpen(1, txtloanlistinput.Text, OpenMode.Input)

Read Textfile Lines And Put It In Different Label?

Feb 27, 2011

I have a txt document here that have certain word on it per line. How can I show it in different labels. I have 25 labels and have label name as followsword1,word2,word3,word4,word5 and so on up to word25. I want the word 1 label will show the first line of the text file and the second word2(label name) will show the second line of the textfile and so on up to the 25th line . Can it be done using loop?I tried but I dont know exactly how readline process works to identify certain lines you want to read and also I tried using the "i" variable to auto generate the name of my label but it did not work.

Dim timepath As String = "C:ACCOUNTSAccount" + user1 + " ime.text"
Dim times As String

VS 2010 Remove Lines From Textfile?

Jun 19, 2012

I have two text files and each text file has various columns (each column is separated by a tab " "), now some of the fields in column1 text file2 match the fields in column1 text file1. What I'm trying to achieve is to remove every row in text file 1 where the field in column1 matches the field in column 1 textfile 2 - is this possible?I have used some basic coding in the past to remove certain lines, but nothing as complex as this.

Dim linesList As New List(Of String)(File.ReadAllLines("Path"))
linesList.RemoveAt(1)
File.WriteAllLines("Path", linesList.ToArray())

VS 2008 ASYNC Ping - Writing To TextFile?

Dec 6, 2009

I was trying to edit to get the reults output to a text file. I needed to do this for a few hundred IP addresses, and found kleinma's code. It works great as is, but since the number of IP addresses to ping is so large, I lose some of the info from the console session. I tried to make changes to write the information into a text file, but it doesn't output the results. I am relatively new to VB.NET, so I was wondering if you could please point out the flaw(s) in the edited code. I was trying to use the My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText(File, lineContent, True) method to do this. This does export the IP address list just fine, but the results of the async ping to not get output.

Mar 25, 2012

I'm writing a program where there are text boxes and the user can enter info and append them to a text file as well as read from the text file and view the various entries in it. The problems I'm running into are that I have a button that opens an open file dialog box allowing you to select the file, and I want to get it to open the first entry of that file in the correct text boxes. the code so far looks like this

code:

I used to have this bit of code in there but there was a conflict with the .txt file being used more than once at the same time while it was in there.

Im also having trouble writing to the file and I'm not sure why. I have an "Append" button that has this code in it

VS 2010 - Writing Different Lines To Text File

Jan 30, 2012

I want to create a little program with textboxes in it, that writes the contents of these textboxes to a file. It also needs to write some predefined lines to the files, even on the same line as where the contents of the textbox is.

Heres an example:
The file should look like this when you open it in notepad:
^1::
Send t Text from TextBox {Enter}

First I think I would need to do this:
Dim ioFile As New StreamWriter("scripting.ahk")
ioFile.WriteLine("^1::")
If I do the above it works.. But how can I write another line where the "Send t" and "{Enter}" gets written automaticly before and after the contents from the Textbox?

Reading/Writing Specific Lines Of A Text File?

Apr 21, 2009

I'm trying to create a program that stores a users stats for their character (for something like an RPG). I know how to write more than one line in a text file, but I want to learn how to read and write text on specific lines of my file. I know that you can just read each new line individually in order using a StreamReader, such as

username.text = readLine.ReadLine()
userage.text = readline.ReadLine()

[Code]....

This is good for just displaying the stats and changing them from a constant interface, but I'm afraid that eventually I'll need to read/write specific lines, like reading the fourth line which might specify magic level, or writing a new money amount.

Allow A User To Edit A Textfile From Within A Program?

Jul 28, 2011

I have a combobox (combobox1) with a list of countries, Canada, USA, UK as an example. For each country I have a textfile of cities. I choose a country, which populates combobox2 .i.e. I select Canada from combobox1. Combobox2 shows cities for Canada. I also have a button 'Edit Cities' What I want to accomplish is the following:Open some type of text editor (like notepad) and allow the user to either delete or add items to the list of cities then re-save the file back to the resources folder of my program. I have been successful in reading the textfile to a messagebox but of course can't do anything with it.

Here is a code snipet I have so far:

Private Sub btnEdit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEdit.Click
If combobox1.SelectedIndex = 0 Then
Dim fileReader As String

MDataGridView In Method Which Retrieves Data From The SQL Database?

I have a tabcontrol with a number of tab pages each of which contains a DataGridView control. I populate each DataGirdView form a local SQL Server. The method which does this works fine. The problem I'm having is I want to use the same method to populate each DataGridView control. I created a private member variable called mDataGridView as a DataGridView and use the TabControl SelectedTab property to determine which tab page the user has selected. I then try the following

I then use mDataGridView in my method which retrieves data from the SQL database. Although the compiler dosn't gag at this it doesn't work. Am I right in thinking that mDataGridView references dgvQuoteTemplate?
