How To Extract Certain Rows From Text File

Dec 7, 2011

I have a text file that has several rows and columns. I need to read only 2 columns and then to pass the data to an array or collection. My approach was to read the text line by line and then to remove the unnecessary rows and columns. The format of thetxt file is the following:

( PRINTSO )SUBSCRIBERS ACCOUNTS SUBMITTED FOR SETTLEMENT THROUGH BANKS OR AUTHORITIES' STAFF PAYROLPAGE1
SETTLEMENT DATE

Extract Certain Data From A Text File?

Jan 21, 2011

To simplify what I am trying to do, let's say I have a text file with only one line of data.

The data in this case is color info for one pixel:

Color [A=255, R=255, G=200, B=128]

What I am trying to do is read the text file and extract the hex color info and save them to their own variable.

So once the code has run, these should be the contents of the three variables.

RedData = 255
GreenData = 200
BlueData = 128

I have managed to get something to work but I know the code is terrible and is incredibly slow when I try to run through hundreds of lines in a text file.

Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim PixelData As String

Extract Specific Data From A Text File?

Feb 16, 2010

Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1

[Code]....

I have found the above code from the net and it works fine as I would expect. I know this because I have added a put the String StoreFile into a text box and it worked. From what I understand about the code above is that we are reading the file test.txt until we reach the end of the file and we are storing it into a string.

What I would like to do is either:

1. Search the String StoreFile until I find the text of my choice, and then extract the characters around it. See attached txt file.

For example, if I wanted to search for MNAUSD in the attached txt file, I want to grab the values on the line (highlighted in blue) and make them available to my program and ignore everything else.

"MNAUSD",UNITED STATES,US $,M,1.558850,1,1.369850,1.113500,L

I know these files are comma delimited, but I would rather use a regular expressions if possible as I have other files that are not comma delimited, so it would be ideal if I have a regular expressions to handle the search and extract

OR

2. Search the File test.txt LINE BY LINE, until I reach my search text MNAUSD and then extract the same values as above.

Office Automation :: Extract Text From WORD Without Openning The File?

Dec 4, 2011

is there a way to extract all the text from a Word Document in VB.NET without actually openning the file? I'm asking since it is a very time and memory consuming operation to open a word document, select all, assign it to a variable and the close the file.I have a routine the opens all emails in a mailbox and analyses the body and subject object for regular expressions. I would like to do the same for the attachment, if it's in Word. if it's not possible to extract without openning the file, can anyone give me the best way to do it so that the routine doesn't destroy my server memorywise?

Parsing A Text File In Order To Extract Data For Subsequent Calculations?

Oct 21, 2010

I am using Streamreader to read a text file containing data such as the following:

IN;SC;PU;PU;SP1;LT;VS10
IN;SC;PU;PU;SP1;LT;VS10
PW5;PU4179,27448;PD4179,29951;PD3244,29951;PD3244,30286;PD5494,30286;PD5494,29951;PD4555,29951;PD4555,27448;PD4179,27448;

The final goal is to use the numbers next to the PU and PD characters to perform specific calculations.

Essentially, I think the code needs to do the following:

1. Read each block of characters ending in a ";"

2. If the block commences with anything other than PU or PD, discard it

3. Extract the numbers in such a way that calculations can be performed. The following is an example:

x y
PU4179,27448;
PD4179,29951;

[Code]....

Essentially, there will be hundreds of these rows and I will need to sum up the deltas so that a specific formula can be applied.

I have tried doing this a number of ways but each seem very inefficient (using text boxes to store/swap data and creating additinal text files are 2 methods I have tried) and so I'm looking for some direction.

VS2008 Load And Parse A Text File And Extract Data Between Points On Any Given Line

Combine Each 5 Rows Into 1 Row From Text File?

Apr 7, 2012

I have a long text file with job descriptions with each description split over 5 rows. (2 examples are below.) I would like to combine each of the 5 rows of the single description into 1 row. so for example the 10 lines below would be combined into 2 rows so that I can then import into SQL server and clean it up. I'm fairly new to vb.net but I've written the code to import the text file and export it again but I need to process it after import.

Check Lines In A Text File With Rows In Database?

Mar 19, 2012

I have a text file with some call records in it. Each call record states a line in that text file. And what I want to do is that parsing to database with a 100% success rate. Due to sometimes the SQL connection might get buggy or stop or w/e so it came to my mind that I should make some function or maybe a stored procedure to check whether the requested/selected or whole lines in that text file have been successfully added or not to the database. Let's assume I have 10 lines in a text file called "log.txt" like:

call line 1
call line 2
call line 3
call line 4

[code]....

And assuming that the SQL connection to the database got stuck somehow(buggy) and it stopped inserting those lines to their respectively columns. Let's say it parsed lines from 1-6 and it stopped there, that's where I need the app to tell me that it stopped and continue inserting immediately where it stopped at to the end from 6-10th line. What am I supposed to do? The smoothest way so that the processor doesn't get overwhelmed (in case there are like hundreds of thousands lines). And should it be written in SQL as a stored procedure or written as a function from VB side.Toolkit : Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate - VB.Net language & Microsoft SQL Management Studio 2005 - SQL Database.
