how to best go about this project. I have just been given the task of creating a program that will primarily be used to import and sum a excel or text file that is tab delimited. As a quick example the file would be in the following format:[URL]The problem is that I would need to store this information locally (unless you know better) because I need to be able to append information to this from a second (or third, fourth, etc...) file and re-sum it, lets say that this is the second excel file that I needed to sum:
[URL]
I would have to append the week5 and week6 columns and add the Neapolitan row to my summation. This program will then format the sums into a list of the different flavors and the sums of all products sold during the total weeks and output to a text file.I have informed my employer that it would be easiest to do this with a VB script in excel, however, they are adamant that they want this done in VB.NET with a GUI.
I need to dump a bunch of delimited data to Excel. In VB6 days, I would save the data to a text file, then use ExcelApp.ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add (blah blah blah...) to import the data to Excel (I got this code from recording a macro while manually importing a text file).In VB.NET (2005), QueryTables does not appear to be an option for ActiveSheet.I could take the long path and manually parse thru the data writing to individual cells - however if I could just import it, it would be much faster.Part of the issue is not being able to record a macro in Excel in .NET format.So my primary question is, how do I import a delimited text file in to Excel without having to manually parse the data into individual cells.Secondary question is any tips for not being able to have ready made examples (in VB .NET format) by recording a macro.
View 3 RepliesI am just trying figure out a record import program from text file into access database using Microsoft.Jet.Oledb Provider 4.0 and Vb.net. And it seems easy but my problem is different. In the text file, records are not delimited.
Format of the text file:

Can I put delimiter programmatically while reading the text file using stream reader and later simply import the whole file in DB.
I am trying to import tab delimited text file to access table. The below code WORKS very well for csv file. when I try the same for tab delimited text it it importing all the fields into one column of the access table and combining the header files as one column.

I have a large text file that I want to use in my project, that data in the text file has about six items for each location. Now I had thought of importing the text file into a database using Access, but not had a lot of luck making it work. The question is is it better to load the data in the project as a text file then search for the string required or to convert it into a database. (The text file is a list of airports and related data.) Can a text file be converted to a Microsoft compact SQL database?

i want to take a comma delimited text file and then select all unique records based on one of the fields in the text file. should i read the text file into a data table or just use a data reader?
View 7 RepliesSo I've been using VS2010 and haven't had too many problems transitioning over but I have an issue at the moment and I can't seem to find the answer...I have been using a little piece of code to insert comma delimited files to a database, which works great.Today, I received a Tab Delimited file from a client....obv I could edit, replace tabs with commas and move on but I want to know the right way to do this so I feel accomplished I've tried two ways so far1. This is the code I use for comma delimited with a slight change for the tabs -- PF refers to a class module that has the functions I use to get files and parse file paths

So i'm new to working with vba in access and i'm having trouble getting this code to work. What it is suppose to do is take a selected text file and read the original file into a list box. Then there is a second button that when pressed will convert the text file from a pipe delimited file into a tab delimited file and then show the changed file into a new listbox.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Function GetFilenameFromPath(ByVal strPath As String) As String
[code].....
Now i'm coding for a project in VB.net that allow user to browse to text files (i am done), after that i have to import this text file into access.
The problem i have to import a pipe delimited file (it is: #), that '#' help to distinguish each filed.
Example: my text file is: #BC2323#23241#12345. This mean that: There are 3 fileds in it: BC2323; 23241; 12345.
There is my coding for browse any text file:
Private Sub btnBrowse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBrowse.Click
Dim alltext, lineoftext As String
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.TXT"

I used to just code up a module that looked like this Ref to MS Access 11.0 Obj Lib was set
Dim myaccess as New Access.Application
myAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")
myAccess.Visible = false
myAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase("c:\path\databaseName.mdb")
But now it seems that even with that ref included, none of these commands exist. From what I've been reading online, to do this via .net, you have to parse the file out and create a serious of SQL inserts. I'm assuming/hoping/praying that there is a more efficient way to do this...
I want to create a button that will open up a form that will be used to browse a filesystem and select an excel sheet to import into access. I'm a noob at .Net and I needsome help on how to do this.
View 4 RepliesI use the following code to import a XML file into an Access database:
dbname = "c:PC Auditer.accdb"
xmlFile = strFileName
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim streamRead As New System.IO.FileStream(strFileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open)
ds.ReadXml(streamRead)
streamRead.Close()

The import works fine, but when a next XML file is imported with less records, the database don't get updated and the 'old' records remain in the database.
this is how i would normally import a comma delimited text file into a ms access table:

sql.ExecuteNonQuery()
my question is, how can i do something similar for a tab delimited text file?

I'm trying to parse a text file. First I plan on extrcating each line, then extracting each field by searching for a tasb.When I use InStr to search for a (return for end of line) or (for tab) I always get a zero. But if I put in a visable letter such as a I got a 5.also I tried /r, /n and all return a zero.The file looks as follows:
ID Name
1 Patient
2 Bed
3 PatientSet

I've got a problem reading in a Tab-Delimited text file. There's an extra tab in one of the fields its reading it thats not a delimiter, and it's throwing off me reading the file into a table. This specific file does have quotations around that field though.
What would be the best way to take that tab out before splitting the row by vbTab?
Im reading each line in the text field like this, splitting on vbTab. X is a string array
text = x(J).Split(vbTab)
This is my first program that I'm trying to write. I have been trying to make an application to run a date filtered query against a SQL server and output the results into a txt file that I define. I believe that my code is close for getting the data. I cannot figure out how to actually write the data into a text file. I am trying to use the datareader and streamwriter, but I am not sure what to put in the streamwriter.Write() function to actually get it to past the lines in the text file.

I am trying to import a TAB (NOt comma) delimited text file into a DataGridView. The following code works fine if I have a comma separated file. All I have to do is change the FMT to "Delimited".It just does not work with FMT=TabDelimited. All columns are read into single datatable column. The text file is ANSI text and I have double checked to make sure Tabs are tabs and not spaces, even exported a sample Tab Delimited file from Excel.Can this even be done using Text Driver? [code]

I previously asked a question about my meeting planner app, and how to delete a specific entry in the array. Someone had the interesting suggestion of using a ArrayList, instead of a normal array. I am attempting to learn ArrayList, but to no good result. I can't even get the ToString method to work correctly to write what I want it to into a text file.[code]...
My plan is to have each of those three fields to have their own entry in the ArrayList, but when it is saved to text file, those three fields are comma delimited to a line for each appointment. Of course when the text is loaded, it will have to be converted back. Can anyone point me in the right direction or have any other method of going about this with the ArrayList?
what would be the easiest way to open a comma delimited text file - each field is surrounded by quotes - and then analyze this file to find the record with the most fields being used? right now i bring the file into and access db then loop through each record to see if there is any data.
