When my software starts up, it connects to an Access database to get any update messages and displays them in a message box when the user starts the program.That part works, but I'm trying to figure out what should be put into the Access record to create new lines in the msgbox text. I've tried and arrangements of single and double quotes but everything's going on a single line.

I've been looking through the FCL for a method that will allow me to erase a line of text from a text file and replace it with another line of text. Neither the StreamReader nor StreamWriter have a method for replacing or removing Text from a text file, as does the string object. Are there any available methods for erasing just certain lines of text from a file, and then replacing them with others?
In my code, I'd like to locate a certain line in the text file, and then at that point in the text file, use a For...Next Loop to replace each successive line of the text file with new text:
Dim user_data_file As String = "user_data.txt"
edit_input = New StreamReader(user_data_file)
Dim edit_line As String = edit_input.ReadLine
[CODE]...
However, I can't find any methods that will allow me to do this.
how to read text from a listbox line by line and put current line in a label?
View 3 RepliesBasically what I'm trying to do is read a text file line by line. After each line is read, it will put each line into a separate text box. I've been trying to do this for a while and so far I haven't been able to. I tried using a for loop, but that just put all my lines in to one textbox.

View 3 Repliesa user copies multiple lines of text (say, from an email) into the clipboard. Based on my observations, when one tries to paste the text into a single-line textbox, only the first line is actually pasted in. (I am aware that the "obvious" solution would be to set the Multiline property to True, but there are reasons I am looking to avoid this and to put multi-line data into a single line.)
In the TextChanged event handler, I wrote code that parses the clipboard data to successfully convert it to a single-line, comma-delimited format.

as you can see in the code its supposed to read a text file and if the line contains the same string as in the textbox then its gonna make a messagebox.
now the problem, if the line does not contain the specific string but the next or any line other line does, then it should automatically read the next line on "Else" and that's where I'm lost
for a "Readnextline" command or something like that?
