May 30, 2010I've been trying to fix this problem for days, but I haven't been able to successfully apply any of the code that I've found to my project the way it is right now. Maybe I'll need to change the way it reads the file altogether.
Anyway, I'm trying to read through a text file line by line, reading each line into its own string.

View 3 RepliesReading In More Than One Variable From Each Line In A File?
Mar 1, 2010Trying to read in three variables per line from a text file that looks similar to the first code segment. What we've been taught so far to read in is something similar to the second segment. And it works all and good for single words per line.
If this was C++ I'm pretty sure I could getline and use the comma as a terminator, but I'm not sure if a similar function exists for VB.

Question Reading Raw Text As String To Manipulate
Feb 29, 2012I am not sure if this makes sense or not, but I need to process raw text (without any encoding?) that I retrieved from a file recovery application "PhotoRec".With an application like Notepad++ I can see all of the text I need to manipulate but with VB I seem to only get some of the text with other stuff stripped out.[code]I essentially add each line of text to the collection so I can read each line at a time (other processing, etc.)So, as mentioned, with the above code I get text but not all of it. With different encodings I get different versions of the text represented in "current byte". So, how can my .NET application read text like Notepad++ or a similar "raw" text reader app?

Save Data To A Text File On A Remote Server?
Mar 13, 2011I'd like to save data to a text file on a remote server I have. There are no security issues here, just the method.
Dim FILE_NAME As String = "123.456.789.012/variables.txt"
If System.IO.File.Exists(FILE_NAME) = True Then
Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME)

I know it's not the most secure way of doing things, but the end data has to be in the txt format, otherwise I'd have used MySQL.
Reading A Specific Line From A Text File And Displaying It In Individual Text Boxes?
Feb 16, 2010I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then
EnglishForm.Show()
ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.
Forms :: Reading File, Split Text And Write To Text Boxes

Format A String Of Text From A Variable?
Jun 29, 2010I seem to be having a problem with the Format() Function. I am trying to format a string of text from a variable so that it uses commas as thousand separators, but I can't seem to get it working properly. Here's what I'm using:
Dim testVar As String
testVar = "10000"
testVar = Format$(testVar,
When I use this code, it changes the variable's value to The strange thing is, it works fine if I use a number instead of the Variable. It also works fine if I use a "predefined numeric format" instead of my custom one. For example, if I use:
testVar = Format$(testVar, "Standard")it works just fine, but that's not what I want (otherwise I'd just do it this way.) It also works fine when I do this:
testVar = Format$(10000, And, although in the example code I've written here, it seems like I could just do it this way, in my actual program, I can't. I have to set it dynamically with the variable.
So it seems like both portions of my Format() Function are working, but just not together, and I can't seem to figure out why. anyone shed some light on this for me and tell me what I'm doing wrong? From every example I can find on the internet about using this function with a variable, I'm doing it correctly, but mine isn't working.

View 1 RepliesProject Which Involves Reading The Text From A Number Of Textboxes And Putting It Into A String?
Nov 15, 2011I'm trying to do a project which involves reading the text from a number of textboxes and putting it into a string.I'm just wondering if there's an easier way to it other than:
CreateString += TextBox1.Text + TextBox2.Text + TextBox3.Text... (etc)
I have thought about creating a For Next loop which would go something like:
For i As Integer = 0 To intNoTextBoxes
CreateString += TextBox(i).Text
Next
But this really doesn't work. I also found something saying that something similar to this would work:
For i As Integer = 0 To intNoTextBoxes
CreateString += Me.Controls.Item("TextBox" & i.ToString).Text
Next
But that didn't work either.
