I have a config file that I store information in and parse using streamreader. For example..
configfile.txt TEMPLATE NAME: mytemplatename TEMPLATEDIRECTORYPATH: C:TEMPWOOF.TXT
I had been doing a split function after the ":" but, that doesn't turn out so good once you add in file paths. I have turned to trying to grab the first ":" from the left using the "InStr" function which returns the char integer. I need a way to grab all the information on that line after the first ":".

I have a problem with a streamreader in visual basic 2008.I am updating a database from text files on an ftp server. The streamreader works fine until the file is more than 100,000 bytes long.It reads until it reaches this point and then just ends. No error message, it just reads to this point which happens to be 2 fields out of 6 in the database stream. My question is - does the streamreader have a limit? And if so what is a workaround?

conn = New SqlCeConnection(connString)
Dim strQuery As String = ""[code]......

I'm writing a program that basically loads an entire text file into a streamreader variable, then reads this variable line by line and parses and writes a line into a new text file. I'm VERY new and my knowledge is mostly self-taught, but I can't seem to get out of this one. It works for smaller files, but it appears to reach a limit in characters at some point because in a file of 900 lines, it stops writing about halfway through 800 and there are no errors, the program actually completes and the message box pops up.
There are a few things with this code I already know I should fix, such as creating the new text file name, it's messy, I just don't know how.
Private Sub btnProcess_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnProcess.Click
Dim IndexValues As String()

I just want to parse simple expressions like IIF(FVAL(PFC) = TRUE, (IIF((ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") + ORGVAL(DA)) < 6500, (FVAL(BAS) + FVAL(DA)) * 12%, 780)), 0)`After parsing this I should be able to know what functions contains what parameters.

I'm stuck with .Net Framework 2.0, so no Linq or lambda expression goodies for me. Also I want to include the code in my custom library and not just reference it. Can anyone point me to some good library or code.
I just need to parse and not evaluate the expression and find what tokens are in use. After finding the tokens I need to change the expression string before parsing, like if the function ORGVAL is used then the parameter passed has has to be prefixed by an underscore. Like ORGVAL(BAS) will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS). Some functions can have tow parameters like ORGVAL(BAS, "2012/12/31") and this will transform to ORGVAL(_BAS, "2012/12/31")
NOTE: IF THERE ARE OTHER WAYS OF DOING IT PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I WOULD LOVE TO AVOID A PARSER AND LEXER.

I am doing an assignment for my programming class in which we have a text document full of names (one per line), and we set up a program with a textbox, button, and listbox. The user enters a name in the text box, clicks the button, and it searches the document for the name. If it's found, the listbox should say so and list the line number.I can get that working no problem, but the assignment also requires informing the user if the name can not be found, and I am not doing something right with that.My code is as follows:
Quote:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim inputname As String = TextBox1.Text
Dim linecount As Double = 0
If I remove the three bolded lines and it finds a name, it will work fine to the point that it informs as such and tells what line it is on, but it won't inform the user if a name wasn't found, which I need. I thought adding those three bolded lines would help, but when I have them in there, it will incorrectly display "Name not found. " no matter what name I type in the box, even if it is in the text document.

I am testing code that recursively searches for files, reads them and determines if a user supplied text string can be found. I am getting Out of memory errors on files > 250 MB. The system has 4GB RAM and no other apps are running. Here is the section that throws the error. Other than this, the program seems to work perfectly. 250 MB files are OK, 275MB files are not.
Private Function FindStringInFile(ByVal FileName As String, ByVal SearchFor As String) As Integer
Dim strTest As String = String.Empty

magine there is search box (textbox), and below there are a search button with a rich text box.My text file located in the drive C is like this: [code]I want to search only two types of items in my text file located in drive C, namely: Construction and Non-construction. When the user will type a product name, OR size, OR whatever, he must get results only for the Construction or Non-construction. The user must not get results for the Food. And the user can make misspelling of words in the search, so the Search box must tackle it. And yes, the results should appear on the rich text box on the form itself.What is the code of doing the Search according the criteria above? All I know I have made a srteamreader code but when clicking on the search button, it is giving me all the texts i wrote in the text files. However, I want only some lines to be read.

What is the best method to get towards the end of a file in a Stream Reader. In my case, I have data at the end I want, but the rest of the data I don't need. If the file is very large instead of reading line by line until eof, is there a better way to get to the end?

I am reading data from an API feed and saving the chunks into files. When the files reach 2 MB I start a new file and write to that file. What happens now is that an entry (<entry></entry>) can get cut off at the end of a file and continues into the new file. I try and reconstruct the files by taking the last entry and combining it with the first entry of the next file but this is tedious handling the data transmission and file creation.
Do
timestamp = DateTime.Now
numbytesread = responseStream.Read(bufferread, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)
If numbytesread > 123 Then
'timestamp = DateTime.Now
responseData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString

I'm new Visual Basic. I played around with vba in Excel for about a year, but most of it was copy-clipping code that I found online and modifying it � which taught me the VERY basics. I was recently asked if I�d like to job shadow one of our programing consultants at my work and jumped at the opportunity. So my "mentor,� Temi, has been awesome in giving me some basics, and I've learnt more from spending a couple hours a day 2 days a week for the last month with him then I have since I got into this a year ago in vba.

I need to build a program that combines many different .doc files based on which check boxes the user selects. At first I was going to use the word.document.open(file) way, but I would rather not have to open 40 different files every time the program runs. I then turned to streamreader, which works great for basic text (after I convert the file to .txt) but I can't figure out a way to maintain hyperlinks. I am now thinking that after the streamreader reads all of the data and combines it into one string, it will paste it into a word doc and somehow search for hyperlinks and make them active.
