Open "C:/Test.txt" For Input As #iFileN String?
Jan 25, 2010
i'm making a program for may computer project. Our teacher hasn't taught us about reading/writing a file yet. I tried running the code but VS underlines the string
Open "C:Test.txt" For Input As #iFileN
like so. and details as follows.
Open: Not declared. File I/O functionality is available in 'Microsoft.VisualBasic' namespace
C:Test.txt: Method arguments must be enclosed in parenthesis
For: Comma ,')' or a valid expression continuation expected.
I've tried adding Microsoft.VisualBasic reference but VS says it will be loaded automatically.Here's the whole code
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim sFileText As String[code]....
Edit: I tried enclosing the C:... in parenthesis but the following statements becomes a FOR statement and is asking for an END for the FOR statement

I am working on an assignment for my Programming Logic and Design class. I also noticed a couple other similar posts but after going through them I still have an issue. I was suppose to write a program that will allow input of three test scores, average them then display a letter grade in a box. At this point the only thing that is being displayed is "F". [code]

Currently developing an automation tool to test new desktop OS builds at work. Need to be able to open menu items on toolbarwindow32 windows (main menu of explorer windows). Now this requires retrieving information of all the buttons on the toolbar, obtaining the button ID of desired menu and sending a WM_COMMAND message with the ID. I'm having trouble retrieving button information.Now im using openprocess, virtualallocex to allocate virtual memory in the target process, and then sending the TB_GETBUTTON message with a pointer to the allocated memory then reading out the result. Allocation and the send message works fine but reading the processmemory back out is failing but not returning an error code, getlastwin32error returns nothing either.
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)> _
Public Structure TBBUTTON
Public iBitmap As Integer[code]....
As mentioned above, the read process memoery call fails, the return value is -1 The documentation states it returns 0 for fail, non zero for pass. Wondering if the problem lies in incorrect use of types in pinvoke calls or the struct tbbutton is incorrect, or my use of a pinned pointer is wrong,or whether I need to use adjusttokenpriviledges to ensure I have rights.Though I'm running under admin and examples similar to this don't use it.
Relevant documentation

I am building an application to update a database.I have a Map table where row 0 holds the target table field name Row 1 holds an update value or Source table Column name Row 2 holds a Where condition eg
Map: CustNo CustName Val1 Val2
Update: 25
Where: =[CustNo] > [Fld14]
In this example I am going to update the Target Table Field 'Val1' to 25 where the Target Table Rows have Field 'Val1' data > 14 AND Target Table Field 'CustNo' = the Source Table Field 'CustNo' AND the Target Table Field 'Val1' > the Source Table Field 'Fld14' Where I am stuck is I at the moment is wondering how I should convert the strings into test conditions as I iterate the Target Table eg Say my test string is stTest and it holds " = 25" For each dr as datarow in dtTarget
some code
... stFld = "Val1"
if dr(stFld) { convert stTest into literal '=' and then 25}
... do something the only way I can think is to build up a series of test cases like:
Select stOp
Case stOp = "="
Case stOp = "<>"
etc.

I have two tables, dt & dtResults.dt contains 3 columns named: vchInstrumentAnalyteID, bintAnalyteCodeID, & vchAnalyteCode dtResults contains several columns including the columns in dt
I want to get vchInstrumentAnalyteID from the first row in dt and test if it exists in the vchInstrumentAnalyteID column in dtResults. If it exists, I want to use that value from dt to filter rows in dtResults and fill all the filtered rows with data from that row in dt. Then loop to the next row in dt.
I have this code, which is close to what I need, but I can't get it working.

I need to test a string of text that needs to contain a certain type of char values. The known is allowing of a-z,A-Z,0-9. But the variable (which will be coming from a database field) will be the allowed symbols. The allowed symbols will look something like:!@#$%^&*()
So using regex, how can I check a string of text to make sure it ONLY contains a-z,A-Z,0-9 AND the allowed symbols as shown above? Remember, the allowed symbols is dynamic at run time so I need to somehow be able to plug that in to the method at run time.
The following examples would be valid using the above symbol string:
Test1234%
Test1234
The following example would NOT be valid:Test1234%_

We know that VB string start and end with double quotes " "
So we have to use "" if we want " in VB string.
I wonder if there is a regular expression pattern which will match VB string?.

I've set up a test database to begin unit-testing an app that I've recently been added to. It is a 3-tier design (presentation layer, BOL and DAL) and this is my first time writing unit tests. I've decided to start at the BOL and I figure the best way is to swap out the ConnectionString (which has been passed along as a Shared String) with one that points to my new test database. However, I don't wish to change any production code. I simply wish to somehow redirect the app to the test database during unit tests.

I've been working on an application for awhile that, basically, allows the viewing and printing of a maintenance database. It allows the user to view basic information for the object and then view the maintenance history. My approach for the maintenance history is simply to have unique tables per object since a history has to be kept for each, however, I'm running into a problem in the application that allows the user to view the general information from one DB and the Maintenance history from the other DB.
Say you have Object ID BG1. I can enter the object ID into a search field, pull the data from the general DB and display the data, but I also need it to pull the information from the maintenance history and display. If maintenance history for this object is not found, then create a new table within the DB, fill the columns with the required fields and allow for the user to edit the history.

I am receiving this error message: "Input string was not in a correct format." on my ASP.net 2.0 VB project.
When looking at other posts with this error its obvious that each time it will be specific to the users' project. Therefore my main question is, is it possible to generate a more informative error message?
I am already in debug mode but it does not tell me in which string the problem lies. I am converting some strings to integers with "Cint" and have also tried the Integer.Parse() method to no avail.

I have the following query
Dim get_rmf_2 = From rmf In t_rmf _
Where rmf!NIVP = nivp_rap
When i run it i get an error :
Operator '=' is not defined for type 'DBNull' and string "test".
I suspect this is because the column "NIVP" in the datatable contains null values, I've tried yhe same thing without null values and it works.So how can i make this work ? ; the column "NIVP" really has a row "test" , and a normal SQL query works fine.

I am trying to write a program that reads values from a datafile and makes the data available in an array for further use in the program. The data consist of a description and then a value (COM_PORT=COM1, for example). My idea is to put the data in an array so that I can just search the array for COM_PORT and I will get COM1 back. Is that a good approach of handling it this way? What methods would I use to put the data (I use FileSystem.ReadAllText, the data is in a string) into an array? Would the split method work?
