So, when I Split the string with Comma, it gave me problem. Actually total it has 6 columns. But because of internal comma, it gave me 7 columns. And this CSV format can't change so I must deal with this problem. And so here I come out with a solution (because of its too long, I looking for better idea and solutions from you guys ):

I already know the basic procedure of how to read specific cells of an .xls file using VB.NET but I can't figure out how to automatically get all the data from such a file.Basically, I'm obtaining the data like this:
Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
xlApp = New Excel.Application
[code]....
In this case, I know that there will be content in the first 10 rows of the columns A, B and C but what would I have to do if I had a huge document whose size and content might even change from time to time? I know that there is also an attribute ws.rows.count but this always returns a big value like 60000 even if only a few rows are occupied.So basically, I'm looking for a simple way to loop through all the used rows of an Excel file with the possibility of accessing each cell in that row.

I am trying to create a console application that allows me to read the contents of a text file and saving the data by specific name in a set of files. For example, the text file I am going to read is a tab delimited file. Some content of the file includes full name, school, location, and whatnot. I want to save the content by school name in a set of files that have the school names. In this case, everyone that attends "Central" will be saved in a file named Central.txt.Everyone that attends "Central Park" will be saved in a file named Central Park.txt.These are the sub procedures I came up with so far:
Readfile()
'Use StreamReader
WriteFile()
And I think I am on the right track of reading the text file:
Dim objStreamReader As StreamReader
Dim strLine As String
'Pass the file path and the file name to the StreamReader constructor.

View 8 RepliesI decided on a comma separated data file, saved as a text file. This is for data that will not change. After loading the data from the text file; then throughout the lifetime of the program the data can change. The data can then be saved back to a different binary file. The idea is to have a save state system going.Does anyone have a suggestion or is opposed to the idea. Is there a simpler way to organize something like this?

I recently asked a question about reading a file with Streamreader to variables arrays, but I made it more complicated than need be. Here is the simple version of what I am trying to do:
dim MyNumber(1) as String
strMyFile = 100,200 (I already have this)This is the result that I am trying to make happen:
MyNumber(0)=100
MyNumber(1) =200
I would also like the result to be MyNumber(0), MyNumber(1) as double, but I could do that in a later step. This is almost embarrassing to ask, because it is probably basic stuff.
I am a beginner at this and I am taking classes, however I am having trouble deleting a line from a Comma Delimited .txt file.[code]...

What my problem is that, how can I load this .txt file to a datagrid and arrange it in a 3 columns. That .txt file is auto generated that's why i cannot do anything about the textfile.
i have code for loading a text file (comma separated) into my DGV:
If Not DataGridView1.LoadTextFile(TextBox1.Text, ErrorList) Then

I'm wondering...is it possible to run this code if the user was to drag and drop the text file onto the datagridview, rather than having to navigate via buttons etc...it'd make it a much nicer method!

Is there a better method for outputing the data, rather than having to concatinate all the elements into a string and then writing it? In the 'good old VB6' days a Print statement followed by each value and a separator would do the trick. I can't seem to find the appropriate override for the WriteLine method.
