Using A Function To Open A Text File And Read It?

Oct 12, 2009

I am trying to create a form that opens a text file and displays the text in the textbox on my form. I am supposed to use a function to get the string of text from the file. Then I am supposed be able to click a button to call on the function. I have to use the OpenFileDialog to get the file and the path of the file can be anything (it is not a certain file). I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how to get this to work. I have tried coding it and this is what I have come up with:

Public Class Form_BaseClass
Function ReadFile() As String
Dim OpenFileDialog As New OpenFileDialog

File I/O And Registry :: Open / Read Binary File / Care To Check Code?

Jun 14, 2009

I've gone through about 16 hours and two packs of cigarettes trying to figure this out. First a little background. I was using 6.0 up until 2004 when I went to prison. I'm out now, and trying to relearn the trade, using VS 2005. I'm currently porting some 6.0 code from another project, SpyCast Webcam Studio, into VB 8.0. It's disheartening, to say the least. None of the old built-in subs/functions work anymore, so I have to scour the forums to relearn each and every function.The section I'm doing now takes a snapshot from the webcam (Video API --> PictureBox --> Save as Jpeg), then upens the file to upload it to the server via HTTP POST. I've been using this code in SpyCast for years with no trouble, but I spent many hours trying to piece together the right code to open the binary file to read its contents. I pieced together two methods I found around the forums, one using FileStream() though the code I found wasn't for binary files, even though it said it was, so that code doesn't really work. Method two uses Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileOpen() and works better.

Here's the kicker. By the time I run through the rest of the rigamarole of uploading the file, by the time I read it on the webserver, it's *slightly* corrupted. It's a valid Jpeg, no errors, but the picture looks like when I use to watch the Playboy Channel when I was a kid scrambled with weird colors and whatnot. [code] Each "chunk" is basically one "line" of the file. It looks like a single LineInput() return is the text between two carriage returns. Am I correct? I tested this with a flat text file, and it looks true. However, That one input line returns the text or data with the carriage returns *stripped*! ***?!? =( Fine, I have no problem adding my own vbCrLf to each LineInput(), if I were opening text. but this's binary. A character could be Chr(10) or Chr(13), both of which are removed from the original file contents.So I could very well need to use something other than LineInput(), but I haven't found any other examples on the web using this method.

C# - Open A Read Only File As Non Read Only And Save/overwrite?

Sep 21, 2011

I have a number of word documents I am converting. Everything is going great until I get a file that is read only. In this case I get a Save As prompt.

Is there any way to open the file in read/write format? I should have admin privileges so access isn't an issue.

I'm using VB.net to open the files. More specifically

doc = word.Documents.Open(path, Type.Missing, False, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing)

File I/O And Registry :: Implement A Routine To Read A Plain Text File?

Mar 21, 2010

I need to implement a routine to read a plain text file, BUT that file has a predefined format.The file format is as follows:

Quote:

<FILE_PROPERTIES> 'The "< >" also appears
Propertie1="String" 'It's possible to have spaces after or before the "="
Propertie2="String"
Propertie3="String"
PropertieN="String"

[code]....

Is there any Windows API Routine to read something like that?Or could you point me an URL where something is implemented?I don't want a procedure to read the file line by line and comparing them with Line Input because blank spaces, empty lines and comments starting with " // " may appear too, and I don't want to take them into account, but also I need to save changes to the file, but only to the modified section, without having to read the whole file, and re-write it completely.

Binary access can't work, because I don't know what's the size of each "section", since the number of elements into it can change.
I need something like the "ReadINI" Windows API Procedure, but allowing me to read the "[XXX]" sections headers, and also the "<XXX>" file title header.

So in this text file, there is a bunch of info, but I am only needing a certain part. Here is an example of a text file (actually a .dat file, but is easily read):

VS 2010 Open Through And Read File?

Mar 16, 2012

My question is a rather simple one and to be honest with you, I am not sure if it can be done. Lets say I have a mutli-line text box, is it possible, and if so how would I go about making it so if I clicked Open with > editor I could do things with this text, such as TextBox.text = [file contents]. If it's not possible just let me know and I'll stick with open file dialogs.

File I/O And Registry :: Read A Text File?

Feb 5, 2009

I have a coma seperated text file with loads of records. Usually when we read a text file we start from the first line and go towards the last. I know that there will be x comas per record.

But I want to start reading from the last line and then towards the top. This enables me to stop before I reach the top (depending on the data).

What would be the fastest way to read a text file in VB.NET. I am using VS2008. Basically I want to read from last line and stop when I want. I may not need to read the entire file.

Read Text File And Stop Then How To Continue At The Last Read Point

Dec 15, 2009

I'm using vb.net 1.1 to develop the program. I got text files that contain test result from a machine, like below.

T1 1.24535 2.56335 2.43253 1.24538 2.55619 4.35243
T2 1.42542 1.63728 3.57295 4.59275 1.57320 2.72057
T3 5.12857 2.45375 6.38593 2.58375 3.57259 3.57204

I need to check the test result with the data from database, to find out which test result is failed. If there is a fail test result, I will show an alert to the operator and stop the checking process. Until the operator close the alert, then the checking process will continue from the last read point.

Ive figured out how to open a file to read and then display it, and i can probably work out how to write a string to a file. The part i am stumped by is this. Say i open a text file with the following text I has a badger i then want to correct this to I have a badger.

Its just an example and not for a grammar corection program. What i want to do is detect what was said and alter it acordingly. I presume this would come under string manipulation but i cant find any details on this.

Now I want the program to be in the "Open With..." menus for all files, so I can choose myself.

And if the program is already running when user opens a new file, I want the text to appear in a new tab, instead of a new window of the program.

I tryed to be straight forward, and keep it short. So if you need more info, fell free to ask.
