Parsing Text File Doesn't Pickup All If Statements?
Jun 4, 2011
I have a piece of code in my application that is giving me a funny result. I am reading a text file and based on it's first word on the line I have a bunch of IF statements that then assign the value to a variable.
The problem is that not all the if statements are being met, well they are but that's what's weird.
This is for a blackjack game. Every time the dealer has 3 cards in his hand (first 3 labels) message boxes are supposed to appear corresponding to the value of these labels. When i click my button and 3 labels have a value in them, even thought they are equal to less than 17 and less than 21 a message box doesn't appear. [Code]
with vb.net05 + access 03;how can i execute a bunch of SQL statements against a connectionwhich are written in a text file (as like we do in reading from backup file in MySQL)
how can i pull it into an array and if the textbox = any of the lines then execute event something like this
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If Me.textbox1.text = (textfile contents) then timer1.interval = 500
[code]....
im just not sure on how to initiate the calling of the text file into an array.or if i could call lines from a richtextbox and if textbox1.text = a line in the rtb then execute. I guess what ever would be simpler.
I have a complicated text file that has 10000 lines of text which is of the format

I'm toying with an idea that would require me to parse a text file that contains a SQL statement. (i.e. Select * From Customers) I would like to be able to programmatically via Visual Basic identify key words, table names, comment lines, etc.So, how do compilers handle such a task? How does a SQL database handle such a task? All of the parsing tools are for CSV files with some sort of consistent delimiter. I'm wondering if I need to read the file one character at a time and then do some sort of comparison.
I need to code a hitcounter button that looks at a textfile,counts how many times a site has been visited and then shows a message box with the results
p.s. If i am not able to make my self clear here then do ask me for my code , It works perfectly but causes the application hang and is pretty slow ( Using the StreamReader )
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:
I was wondering if anyone knew of a good tutorial for parsing data from a text file and then populating the data into multiple text boxes. I have a text file with information pertaining to my form. The text file consists of key identifiers for each piece of information needed and I was wondering how to programmatically fill in my form by parsing that data.
I just spent about 2 hours searching this forum on this topic but I need some advice. I am looking to extract certain data from HTML source code that I have down loaded into a text file its about 9KB in size.I am looking to keep all email address found. How would this work or what would be the best method to use? This is what I would like to extract and write to another file:
I'm using visual basic 2008 express to do some simple stuff. For this project, Im reading in one large text file.The top of each page has a header section that is always the same, except sometimes a dept# changes, signifying a new set of data.The first line always has the text "RunDate", so when I read that, I know that I'm at the top of the first page.After reading the first line, I'd like to immediately go to the sixth line and grab that dept# and store it.dept = left(trim(myline,7)(Its always 7 characters long) so I know what dept I'm working on.I'll then loop through and write each line to a new text file, until I hit the top of a new page.At that point I need to look at line 6 again. if the dept # is the same, I'll keep writing to the same file.Reading and re-writing from the text files is easy, I just loop through line by line, but I need to be able to jump down to the 6th line, and I don't know how to do that without reading each line to that point"
I would provide my code but I made it so complicated I don't really want to show it. I want to start over.I would like to create the most simple way to begin parsing the text file below beginning with the line - 1, EVENT parsing this comma delimited portion.I would like to
1. NOT include the comments and 2. NOT parse the Array1 and Array33 portion of the file 3. Put it into a collection based on the AlarmLog class provided below.
I'll start off by saying I am using Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I am creating a program that will open installed programs using short code. For instance, if a user types in 'npp' then Notepad++ opens. I have it working just fine to respond to the predefined commands, but I would like to expand it so that the user can define their own settings simply by typing the program directory and the custom short code they want: Example: If I am an end user and would like to say define a short code for Windows Media Player, I would simply type the following: (Assuming Excel or likewise is used to open the csv file).
Im trying to parse a log file and display the data in a textbox.The log is forever changing so it will have to be some kind of a loop.I only want the new data to be added to the textbox after the application is running, not the contents already in the log file.

The final goal is to use the numbers next to the PU and PD characters to perform specific calculations.
Essentially, I think the code needs to do the following:
1. Read each block of characters ending in a ";"
2. If the block commences with anything other than PU or PD, discard it
3. Extract the numbers in such a way that calculations can be performed. The following is an example:
x y PU4179,27448; PD4179,29951;
[Code]....
Essentially, there will be hundreds of these rows and I will need to sum up the deltas so that a specific formula can be applied.
I have tried doing this a number of ways but each seem very inefficient (using text boxes to store/swap data and creating additinal text files are 2 methods I have tried) and so I'm looking for some direction.
I have created many datasetsets in many projects in a solution. In each case the datatables reference a named data conection such as laptop_rick.intPricing.dbo. In that connection I point to the server, etc.. I should point out that in the code I connect to an entire different db server and this is all setup at runtime, this is strictly an IDE issue. Now I have moved the development server. Now of course when they try to connect to the server during development of the datasets it complains that it can't find the server. No problem just open the defined data connection and change the server name.
The problem is that I can't seem to get the dataset to recognize that it needs to rebuild that information in the xsd file. I look in the file and there are still references to the old server. If I change the connection definition in the xsd and rebuild all is fine but I don;t want to have to do that for each every dataset. It seems that although the dataset recognizes the name of the named data connection instead looking for that it embeds the details of the connection into the dataset xsd file.
When I publish my program I get no errors, and then when I install it on another machine it says it gives me the error that it can't read the txt file that it stores data in. If I hit continue it also fails to read the database. The database file is stored in the bin/debug folder and I told my program to include it when I first added the data connection. Anything I can do to have these included so my program can run on other machines?
Can someone give me a site to a tutorial that will help me write a program that will generate a pattern using do while, if else statements,and do until statements. I have been using google but I can't find anything. I need to generate patterns a certain size 6 by 6 or similar such as something like a checkerboard but where the ^ symbols is there a suppose to be a blank space..
I want to parse text from PDF file. Is this possible only with .NET framework? I was read about some libraries like iTextSharp or PDFBox. What do you recommend?
I would like to be able to parse vb.net code files, so I can examine the collection of Subs, Functions (and their contents, including comments), private variables, etc. I can be open the actual source code files. So for example, if I have:
In classic ASP (VBscript), I always had simple include files (broken into relevant sets) that stored all my dim statements, so I could never reuse a variable accidentally.How can I achieve this in VB.NET? I don't really want to be filling several lines per .vb file with the same set of variable declarations if I can get away with just one class file or something simlar.
I am attempting to parse multiple lines of text from a text file using regexpressions. I am using vb.net with visual studio 2008. At the moment I am filling my datatable with the text file information and am able to return each line of text and parse the first set of numbers that I am attempting to break up. I have multiple string with varying lengths of character lengths and numeric lengths however the delimiters are sometimes different. Sometimes will be whitespace and sometimes will be whitespace and chars. But is always 2 spaces. Here is my code:
I have a rich text box full of encrypted data split by ";" and I have
Dim Pass, Data, Game1, Game2, Key1, Key2 As String Dim PassEnd, Game1End, Game2End, Key1End, Key2End As Integer Data = showencrypt.Text PassEnd = InStr(showencrypt.Text, ";")
[code]....
Pass gets decrypted ok, and Game1 gets decrypted ok. Key1,Game2,Key2 are all the same as Game1 though. Is there something I am missing? Why is it setting all of them the same? I've tried settings the Start of the InStr's at the previous End but it doesn't work.
