I have been trying to research how to get a file (basically a csv file) from a url to an array and my search has come up with some examples, but not quite what I am looking for. Would appreciated any direction and or other examples of folks that have done this before.Basically we have a cloud computer set up (Hadoop) and the output of some of our processes is what I am trying to get to.[code]....

I have a function that reads a character array from a file, converts it to a byte array, then writes it to a Network Analyzer. The problem is the conversion takes forever as the size of the array is about 287,000.... Here is the code..

Dim charA As Array = objSR.ReadToEnd.ToCharArray
ReDim bytedata(UBound(charA))

I'm trying to read a text file by use a array for an interactive map. In the text file I stored shop names such as:
Label2.Tag = "test"
Label3.Tag = "House"
When I hover over a label it will display the name in another label such as "lblShowName".
So far I have the array that reads the text file.
dim shopNames() as string = io.file.readalllines("fileName")

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to read specific values from the text file (below)[code]...
How do I store only the data I require in the array? I've tried split and substring but cannot work out a usable method - I need on the text after the colon for each line.
Some binary files have application variables at the end if you open it with a text editor you can see these variables. Now when I read these files into the processor memory the program does not work properly, however if I read a file without this it works fine. So how can I read a byte[] array to EOF so that when I pass that byte array into win32 api create-process it will create the process without corrupting the program?

I've never had to work with them before, and I think I've got everything down except one big thing: I'm setting it up so that different settings have different values depending on what file is being read. I need to know how to tell vb to take a specific item in an array and make the setting equal to it. I know how to make it read the file and add each new line into the array, just need to make sure I'll have to correct method to get the item in the array to match up the setting.

View 2 RepliesI have developed a vb.net dll (.net 3.5) which does the following :
- I have data of several stock market companies.
- They are stored in several folders under a main folder.
- These files are random access files.
- There can be around 4000 files in total for example.
I wrote a program which reads a current csv file and stores contents in array. Then I store name and path of companies in folders (which I was talking about). Then I match one company from csv (stored in array) to companies in user's folder (again reading from array). If found I insert data in the file (random access file). This whole process takes for eg. 2 min my system. A similar program was written years ago by someone in powerbasic which takes slight less time if run one but if run for multiple csv files it takes only a few seconds doing the same thing for other files. When I do the same thing (by writing code to .net dll) and making a dummy app to run it, no matter how many times I run it takes same time. And is way slower than the earlier one (PB) one I was talking about. But if I paste the same code in my win (.net) app and not use .net dll then it runs a bit faster.
I need to show status so if I pass my form's label reference to .net dll and it updates it does that slow down process a lot. As I mentioned I am trying to process the files and it takes longer in .net. What should I do to get best performance? Unfortunately due to unexplainable reasons I cannot change the format or use a db. The files which I am reading/writing (random access files) are use by other products so I have to stick to that format. What I am doing is storing the location of those files in array so that I don't have to search folder again. that is not taking time. But opening reading and writing files is time consuming if I am doing it for few thousand of them. A similar program in powerbasic (developed years ago) runs fast. Running code thru .net dll is slower than running it thru program. Why?
I'm trying to do is to read the lines from a text file, and transfer them to an array.[code]...

I'm working on a new application for one of my Managing Editors at my company. We are wanting to build an application that only has 4 combo boxes for user options and then according to the options that the user selects, the application will spit out 3 random lines of text that can be copy and pasted into another application that we use.We are in the process of creating a rather large (1000's of lines) CSV file that we are going to use as a repository for the text. Let's call the data file SRG9000Data.csv..I'm almost 100% certain that I'm going to need to read in the entire datafile as an multidimensional array because we are setting up the CSV file as follows:[code]For each of THOSE categories, I'm looking at having 8 possible items for <Sports>, and 3 items for <PlayType>, <GameImpact>, and <Scoring>. <Text> is being use as a possible Text Phrase that the system can select from randomly provided that the other area's of the array are met.The CSV file will have 1000's of lines. Of those, the system will "filter" though all of them so that ONLY the ones that meet the selected criteria can be used, then choose 3 of them randomly and use that as output.
Extra information: I am currently establishing that the CSV file being used is setup as 0-7 for <Sports> (0 = Baseball, 1 = Basketball, etc..), 0-2 for <PlayType> (0 = Defensive, 1 = Offensive, 2 = Other), 0-2 for <GameImpact> (Negative, Neutral, Positive), and 0-2 for <Scoring> (0 = Non-Scoring, 1 = Other, 2 = Scoring); <Text> is a String.I am clueless when it comes to setting up an array like this; It's been many many MANY a year since I worked with array's in QB and I feel I may need more than a refresher course.Now, if I'm understanding correctly from some of the forum lurking i've been doing, multidimensional arrays CANNOT be of mixed type, correct? If this is the case, the how can I read the entire CSV file into an "array" (if you will) so that it contains Integers AND a String? [code]

These are the directions for the assignment.So far I am able to get the file read and printed onto a list box.The book we have for the class does not clearly talk about using the array of structure method with formatting an imported text file.After that I'm pretty much having a bit of trouble with everything else.I know I can figure most of it out but what I'm having a big amount of trouble with is the array of structures that he wants.I know that when I have the file imported that I need to save it temporarily and go through it and at every ":" put it in an array and save that spot and then keep scanning through the file. I know it is going to be a for loop using the index to count through but I'm not sure if how to start it.This is how the text file that he wants sorted out looks.

Define a structure named product, The structure should contain 2 variables one as a string and the other as a decimal. The decimal is used to store the price and the string is used to store the item number.
Declare a module level array that contains 5 product structure variables
Code the main forms load event procedure so that it reads the item number and prices from the itemInfo.txt file The procedure should store the item numbers and prices in the module level array. It also should add the item numbers to the list box.
When the user selects an item in the list box the items price should appear in the xPriceLabel. code the appropriate procedure.
The code I have is as follows
' Project name: Glovers Project
' Project purpose: The project displays the price of an item.
' Created/revised: <your name> on <current date>
[Code].....
Seems the problem I am having is this line is returning a value less than 0.
itemprice = (itemnumber.Substring(productIndex, newLineIndex - productIndex))
