Looping In Reading Text File?
Oct 14, 2011
Here is my code for splitting "," from the text file. But the problem is I don't know how to include looping in the code to make the code read the whole text file. when I run this code, it's only read the first line of the text file.
Dim sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader("C:\drill.txt")
Dim data As String()
data = sr.ReadLine().Split(",")

I have a form with a listbox. I'm adding items to the listbox through a file that I saved. When I open the file, I want each line/string in the file to go in as a separate item in the listbox. I've gotten it to work so far but only with 1 string. I need to loop the part where the file is being read to be able to add all the strings that are within the file to the listbox. How do I do this? So far, this is the code I have:
VB .net
Private Sub OpenToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OpenToolStripMenuItem.Click OpenFileDialog1.Filter =

[Code] I want to replace the X and Y column to user enter value. For example If User enter X=100 Y=100. So the text File Should Do changes Like this:
In first line The X and Y should Be replace by 100. For the second line to the 10th line The X should X=X+2.54 and Y remain 100. For 11th line X=100 and Y=Y+2.54. From line 12 to 20 X=X+2.54 and Y remain which is 102.54. The pattern should be continue until end of file. For every 10 line the Y value should change. This Is the code to replace X and Y value: [Code]
code working perfectly for X values. But for Y values for the first 10 lines is no problem but after that the initial Y value is adding by 2.54 and that value should remain for 10 lines only but not for 20 lines.. Actually the number of lines is determined by the user. they need to enter the number of lines. User must decide to how many lines once the changes should take place.
And One more question is : If user enter Row= 2 the changes should occur for two set of lines only. If user enter Row =2 and column=10 So only 20 lines should changes other lines should remain the original value. I attach my text file after the replacement. But the replacement is still wrong.

So i am count after i find each string example when i find "ADT^A08" it counts how many found in the txt file and then it moves to the next file. My problem is that you can see totalA08 += 1 counts the amount. My problem is that it keeps its old value after each run so the first run counts 5000 and then the next count is 10000. When that last file was the same as the first only 5000. Any ideas on how to properly clear that value after its done [Code]

I know I've asked this before and for some reason I can never remember how to do it. I need to loop thru a directory structure and for every *.txt file, I need to open it and read it. This is a little application that basically searches for a given string. How do I do this?

I can open the Openfile and get the filename and everything, but I just am not sure how to read from it or enter that line into the textbox.Here is what I have, its not much but its a start:

I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then
EnglishForm.Show()
ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.

I'm trying to read a text file that contains info like this:
ACX-101-011 , J2168
BTXR-130A-013, D6733

I want to split each line at the comma and write the left side to a textbox and the the right side to another textbox. I'm close, with the code below, but I can only post results from the first line in the file. How do I loop this and append the text results in each of the textboxes.
Dim TempFile As String
TempFile = "temp.txt"

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'm a little new to VB, and I'm in a class for it, but I'm trying to do something we aren't going to learn in the class (mostly out of sheer interest) and I need help. I'm trying to read lines from a text file into a listbox, each line representing a new item on the listbox. For example, if the text file reads: [code]I want to be able to take that as is and read it into a listbox, where those words would appear in the exact same fashion; as a list, each as separate items. I've looked at the Help stuff and learned (sorta) about delimiters... but the thing is I don't want to write my entire list in a continuous line separated by commas--I want it to keep reading each line, and moving on to the next, until there are no more lines left. I am thoroughly stumped, and would appreciate it SO much if someone could help. For a frame of reference, this is the point I'm at now with my code: [code]Note that when I run the program, all it will do is read the first line of text available and stop; once I press ENTER in a text file, it decides to stop reading.

Usually, the text file that would need to be read and processed would be local (on the computer the program is run), but for this example, we need to get the data from an online text file.
I have searched on google for nearly an hour now and haven't found anything of any real use. One of the earlier projects we submitted used a similar target, and I managed to get it working fine, however I dont have the original source code with me and I cannot remember how I did it.
I believe I used a Net.WebRequest method of some sort, because I had tried using StreamReader and ended up with an URI error or something like that.

I have the following basic code to read a text file from a StreamReader:
Using sr As New StreamReader(FileData)
Dim line As String = String.Empty
Do
'Error occurs on the next line after looping
'past the *last* line in the file...sometimes
line = sr.ReadLine()
'Some code here to parse and process the line
Loop Until (line Is Nothing) OrElse (line = String.Empty)
End Using
I tried changing the Do Loop to Do While Not sr.EndOfStream I tried checking If sr.ReadLine IsNot Nothing and a few other things but I keep getting the Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: 'SslStream' error after all 105 lines have successfully been read and processed. This code has been working for a couple of years, but there seems to be some issue with certain files (recently) that is causing this problem.
I opened the file and I didn't see anything out of the ordinary. No extra blank lines, funny characters or anything of the like. Just a normal file with 105 properly formatted lines. So even know there is something about this file causing the error, I need to obviosly handle this programatically.
What can I do to prevent the sr.ReadLine() line of code from throwing that exception that I have not yet tried?UPDATE Upon reading the last line of the file, the 'EndOfStream' property on the StreamReader goes immdeatly to: EndOfStream: {"Cannot access a disposed object.Object name: 'SslStream'."} It never toggles to 'True'. This makes checking for this condition problematic.
I think I have figured out why this issue only occurs sometimes: if I add in a blank line to the file at the end, none of this ever occurs. It is only when the last line of the file contains data. Still, I should be able to handle this programatically. Telling the vendor supplying the file to always add a blank line at the end should not be the solution.

I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?

i have this simple code from a vb.net project:
Using sr As New StreamReader(NewSwitch.ActFolder & NewSwitch.ActSShowName)
worker.ReportProgress(LoadSwitchProgressType.Normal, "Loading Active SupportShow, size " & NewSwitch.ActSShowSize & "...")
NewSwitch.ActSShowData = sr.ReadToEnd
End Using
Obviously it reads a file - a 20M text file to be exact. Now if this 20M file is on my PC, it reads in about a second. If i open this same file in a text editor, such as Conext, its about the same.However, if this 20m File is on a network location, the Context text editor loads the file in about 1 min 40 seconds. I would have expected similar times with my vb.net code, but it took 7 minutes 45 seconds.I have no idea what the text editor uses to read a file, but i figure i must be able to get similar time in vb.net somehow.

I am trying to create a program that will refresh a *.log file within the program itself (in a RichTextBox), but while the actual application that is writing to that *.log file is open and is utilizing that file as well.
I have tried multiple things with StreamReader, but I can't seem to get anywhere...
Simply, I want to be able to read a *.log file in my Visual Basic 2010 program, but while the actual application that is writing to it is running itself.
How can I do this, as I keep getting the error that another process is utilizing the *.log/text document?
