What I would like to do is read this data in as fast as possible either line by line and processing the data as I go by line. Or read the whole lot in and THEN process it, which woulkd be the fastest ? I used to do this in Excel but want to transfer it to VB and don't know really how to get started I have the following but would like to know how to get the columns into a named array and then how to itterate through array.
Dim myLines() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines("C:SYNC_DATA�0 - LGW�5 - Archived�0 - IST Logs2008istlog20090224.txt")
Im a college student and this is my first programming class, i am having extremely diffcult time with arrays and sequential file processing. Im not asking for the whole program, just something to get me started and hints along as i progress with it. Please help me get started on my program, its due in 2 days.
Here are the requirements....
1. The program must input any number of individual�s last and first names using two separate textboxes. 2. The array of names must be sorted by the last name using a bubble sort. You must code the sort. 3. The program must be able to recall the names from the file and add to the existing list of names so that more names can be added to, sorted, and written back to the file in sorted order. 4. Sort in ascending order: A to Z 5. All names must be displayed in a listbox in sorted order when the user wishes to see them. 6. In the listbox the last and first names must be separated by a comma and a space. Example: Smith, Mary 7. The user must be able to search for a name in the array, using the binary search algorithm. You must code the search. 8. Do not use module-level variables. Instead you may choose to use Static. 9. The program must be designed using Visual Basic 2008
I am writing a program with a loading bar. I also have a label that says what the program is currently loading (Eg. 'Generating Numbers...', 'Determining Winners...').
It all works fine, but the label sometimes doesn't change or doesn't even appear because the program is too busy processing all the other stuff. I hope that makes sense...
Is there any way to centralize processing on the label and progress bar at times?
im toying with an idea based round having controls end user movable at runtime, and having a function to save the current position/location of all the controls, so then i can skip through presets i already made as it were. Ill be using .ini files eventually (just testing with txt files to check it was a valid aproach) I can get all the info i need into the txt file, the problem is how to read it back into the app?
I've discovered a problem that's fairly huge in my work environment and unusual. I'd say that it's impossible for it to be happening except that it is happening.
You have a window (we'll call it window 1) open with a page in it, you enter some data on the form, push the button to submit the data...behind the scenes a decent amount of work is going on.While data is processing in window 1 , you open window 2 and try to load the same page that is processing data in window 1.Window 2 will not render the page until window 1 is done doing whatever it's doing behind the scenes and has re-rendered on the screen.This is happening for all .NET pages in our environment.
Our application is using VBSQL.OCX on Sql server 2000 to create temporary tables and load pipe delimited data from a text file with predefined format into the tables. It is failing intermittently doing this. 99% times it works perfectly. But on occasions it does fail with error. Once the process is rerun with the same input file it runs successfully.Basically the architecture is of Store/Head Office where there are around 200 remote stores sending set of data files to the Head Office. At HO our application sequentially processes each store which has all the set of files received, creates a corresponding table, loads the data from the file into the table and moves onto the next store.If it is for some reason not able to load the file for a store, it gives a failure message and continues with next store.Error which the OCX throws is "Attempt to convert data stopped by syntax error in source field"
an application i developed using vb 2008 express, to fill a web form with data from an access database, one after another when a button is clicked hasn't given me what i expected. the loop was suposed to stop after filling web form with the first data on clicking a button and continue to fill the webform with the next(2nd) data from the database on clicking the button again. Below is the code i wrote
Private Sub STARTButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e
I am trying to load a xml file into a data set by loading the information into a data row. when i try to complete the task it throws a nullReferenceException. the row has data in it and i used the code earlier and it work.

I have an xml file called "QuotesxmlDoc", in my program I have written code for a search screen that searches the xml file for titles or keywords in quotes saved and the information is then shown in a datagridview, see the code below:
Private Sub btnSearchQoutes_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSearchQoutes.Click Dim xmlnav As XPathNavigator
[Code].....
On the main screen of the program, I want to show all the saved quotes from the xml file in a datagridview, I just need to show the date, category, author, title of the quotes, I also need the datagridview to refresh everytime a new quote is saved.
When loading file data to the listbox that I recognize some characters and replace them for me "?"I put the code I use to load the data:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If OpenFile.ShowDialog() = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then Using fs As FileStream = New FileStream(OpenFile.FileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read)[code]....
I am using following code to get data from database and load to picture box
Dim vrPicFromDB = IO.File.ReadAllBytes(DsPic.tblPicTest.Item("Picture")) Dim ms As New MemoryStream(vrPicFromDB) PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)
It gives error on DsPic.tblPicTest.Item("Picture")) portion of the statement. I also tried
1) How can I load data from Text file to DatagridView. I want it because I'm making a listener. And when I load a data from text file, i want to edit rows. And this calling the second question. 2) How can I save data, Datagrid to Text file.
I found a code Dim obj_oledb_da As System.Data.Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter Public Function ConnectCSV1(ByVal filetable As String) As DataSet Dim dataSet As New DataSet [Code] ..... I can load data with this code but I can't save.
My Text File must be like this: #IP 127.0.0.1 localhost
I have a window application develpoed in vs 2008, framework 3.5, in which i have put a button.. Now where i click that button the other text boxes are filled up with the data from database thru web service.. what i want is while all text boxes are being filled i want to show an animated loading gif image till data loading is completed in all the text boxes.. i have tried to use image picture box but while data is loading gif image is displyes but in static mode.. cant see animation... i think this is because data loading and animation both are done thru one UI thread..
I just learned some basics of multi threading in VB.net recently as I came across processing a large List of records and inserting them into SQL database one by one.
I have code look like this:
Private Sub btnLoadNow_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadNow.Click
Dim autoLoad1 As New Thread(AddressOf AutoLoad) autoLoad1.Start()
[CODE]...
Itemlists is a global lists i retrieved from database, everything looks fine to me but when i run this program, I found that the threads are inserting one records 9 times into the database(I have 9 threads in total), which makes me think that maybe i need to specifically assign 1/9 of a list to each thread? Is there another way to do it which doesn't require the splitting of the list, if not , how do i split it then assign?
I am working in VB.NET 2003 and here is the issue of the day (for me):
I have an application which is supposed to read data from a CSV file one line at a time then pick out the 9th item ( a number) in the line and then add these numbers together for a total. The problem is the routine does not get beyond the first line. The code is as follows:
Dim total As Decimal = 0 Dim reader As StreamReader Try
[Code]....
How do I get this routine to advance to the next line of the CSV file and continue to do so until it has read the last line?
This is the code i wrote in order to First open a csv file as excel, then find the required three columns, n then read data from them n save the data into another variables showing them in textbox. As about the csv file, it contains many columns out of which my focus is on only 3 columns under title ID, L, Lg.Problem is Excel doesnt actually open but Excel.exe process runs in task manager. But by this point its not the compile error; Compile error comes at 'Next' Statement. It says Compile Error: Next without For!!
Private Sub cmdFind_Click() Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Set xlApp = New Excel.Application
I will use this program for meter reader. Anyone can help me reading data from text file.. For example I want to get the data that i export from MySQL Database to Text file..
I have textbox to insert the acct number to search the name, and button1 to execute search, and another Textbox to store the name that have been search.
[Code]...
Data in zone6.txt ---- Acctnum, 06-12-057, LIZAcctnum, 06-12-058, MARK, Acctnum, 06-12-001, MICHAEL
Acctnum is the column 1, 06-12-057 is the column 2, LIZ is the column 3.. how can i get the name LIZ if i type the acctnum
Ive made a program that reads in data from a txt file that has 4 columns, but it doesnt work if there are headings to the columns or any other kind of text at the top of the file. I basically just want to be able to skip any text at the top of the file, either by the user specifying how many lines to skip, or by code that can calculate how many lines to skip.
At the moment, the code opens the file, calculates how many lines there are in the file, redims an array to this size, closes the file and then reopens it so its ready to have the data read.
This is how the data is input into the array at the moment:
ReDim data(lines, 3) i = 0 While Not (EOF(1))
[Code]....
I was thinking a possibility would be to use a try statement so that if the data is a string, then it skips over that line, but i couldnt figure out how to put it together.
I am currently trying to write a program that will do the following. 1. The user will open a .txt file that needs to be converted into a CSV file. 2. The user will then click on a button to convert the file. 3. The program will parse the .txt file for the necessary data and will then write the data to a new CSV file. So far I am sure that I can write the code which will open the file and which will save the file to the new format. Where I am having problems is with the .txt file format that I have to work with. [Code]
Each field is fixed length with the empty space in front of the starting numbers being a field. I have been unable to find any code that would show me how to parse only certain data from this .txt file. What I need it to end up looking like is this: [Code] The program itself needs to be pretty simple as the .txt file will only have at most 25 to 30 records. I was thinking of using a StreamReader to read the data into an array, but I can't figure out how to get just the data I need out of each record.
How do you read the data from a file on the computer? I have an mp3 stored on my root folder and I want the form to read the raw data from it so I can do some encryption etc. Dim fileOpen As New IO.StreamReader("C:file.mp3") Dim stream As String = fileOpen.ReadToEnd TextBox1.Text = stream
I am trying to write the TOURN structure and then read the TOURN structure back in.. the file gets created on my desktop and the program does not have any syntax errors, but when I READ the file none of the Data gets retrieved. So I am not sure if the DATA was actually saved or it is just not being retrieved?? This is what I have coded so far...
I have a code wherein datagridview will load according to the query given.I have no problem with that but when i put a loading image while reading the database, loading image wont work as well as if i put only "Please Wait" to a label.I searched from google and said that backgroundworker sahould use to this problem. But how can i use the backgroundworker?i have no idea about it.
If vb application (windows form app) is calling a store procedure and it takes 5-10 mins to SP to finish and meanwhile the application is (forced to) close,
what will happend at the SQL side?
Will the proc completely run even though the app is not running anymore?
I am currently working on a vb project. What I am trying to do is reading a XML file and saving all the data in to the Access DB. Once this is done, I read the data from the access Db and display it in the required fields in VB form. Issue is, when i store the value in the access, a weird character is assigned before and after the data. The character is a square box with question mark in it. Also the same character displays on the VB form as well
The program that I am writing has three default variables that I would like it to store and also be able to change. I have them in a text file called "settings.txt" The format of the text file is as follows:
The field descriptions eg "Default Source" take up 30 characters, so the variable data starts with character 30. I know their has to be an easy way just to pull out the data from a particular line starting with character 30 but I can't find it.
