Reading From TextFile And Populating Textboxes

May 8, 2012

I'm having trouble reading in the file and populating the textboxes accordingly. After loading the file (I think that is) nothing is being populated in any of the textboxes listed below. Basically I'm not sure if the file is being read or not.

If OpenFileDialog2.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("path_to_file") Then
Dim ioFile As New System.IO.StreamReader("path_to_file" + "filename")
TextBox1.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the first line
TextBox2.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the second line
TextBox3.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the third line
TextBox4.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the fourth line
TextBox5.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the fifth line
End If
End If

Save TextBoxes As TextFile?

Jul 27, 2009

I just wondered if it is possible to save multiple text boxes as one file.Currently I:

a ) haven't woked out how to save a TextBox atall and have had to use Rich Text Boxes for this purpose and have used: RichTextBox1.SaveFile("Something.txt")

b ) Haven't worked out how to save/open files as one file. I have had somebody suggest to me using Arrays but I do not know what this meens

Text - .NET - Using Textfile As Source For Menus And Textboxes?

Sep 30, 2009

this is probably a bit tense and I'm not sure if this is possible at all. But basically, I'm trying to create a small application which contains alot of PowerShell-code which I want to run in an easy matter.

I've managed to create everything myself and it does work. But all of the PowerShell code is manually hardcoded and this gives me a huge disadvantage. What I was thinking was creating some sort of dynamic structure where I can read a couple of text files (possible a numerous amount of text files) and use these as the source for both the comboboxes and the richtextbox which provovides as the string used to run in PowerShell.

I was thinking something like this:

Combobox - "Choose cmdlet" - Use "menucode.txt" as source
Richtextbox - Use "code.txt" as source

But, the thing is, Powershell snippets need a few arguments in order for them to work. So I've got a couple of comboboxes and a few textboxes which provides as input for these arguments. And this is done manually as it is right now. So rewriting this small application should also search the textfile for some keywords and have the comboboxes and textboxes to replace those keywords. And I'm not sure how to do this.

So, would this requre a whole lot of textfiles? Or could I use one textfile and separate each PowerShell cmdlet snippets with something? Like some sort of a header?

[Code]...

Now, this snippet above lets me either use a text file as a source for each username used in the powershell snippet. Just so you know :) And I know, this is probably coded as stupidly as it gets. But it does work! :)

File I/O And Registry :: Streamreader Populating Textboxes?

May 2, 2009

Have a main form with textboxes on it. When the user clicks a hyperlink on that main form it pops up a new form that they drag and drop files to either a listbox or textboxes, that part works fine. All the seperate form is doing is simply grabbing the filename to bring back to the mainform. That is working correctly. What it is then supposed back on the main form is read the files, again the reading part is working fine, based on the read it's supposed to populate the textboxes on the main form. When I have the listbox that the user drops the file into on the main form rather than a seperate form it works fine, form size limitaton and aestetics are why I'm using a seperate form. When I debug it it's working fine, I can't figure out where it's dropping the info because line by line it does everything right and it shows the values in debug correctly, however when the main form regains focus the values do not appear as they would if I loaded the file directly into that main form.

Populating Series Of Textboxes Using Control Arrays

May 22, 2012

I am having trouble with .net again. I have a series of 10 text boxes. I want to be able to populate them from an array and read there values into another array. In vb6 I would create a text box array with 10 text boxes / indices. I could then populate them by txtbox(i).text = arrVal(i) and to reference them arrVal(i) = txtbox(i). I am stumped I can create 10 text boxes on a form if I have to, but I want them somehow tied to each other as they were in vb6.

Populating Textboxes Based On Combobox Selection?

Jan 8, 2010

I'm trying to populate textboxes on one form based on a selection on a combobox on another form. All data will be pulling from the same SQL table. I've got the combox to work fine to show the correct data in one of the textboxes by using the lines:

Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=F03D3S-DEV01; Initial Catalog=dos_track;" _
& "Integrated Security=True"

[Code].....

,but not sure how to get the other textboxes to fill with the correct data (from the same SQL table row) associated with the combobox selection. I've spent SO MUCH time on this trying to figure it out, but am getting nowhere fast...

[2005] Populating Textboxes From Array Of Strings?

Jan 22, 2009

this is how I set up my data object for a file parser. (

Dim mytable As New List(Of String(,))()
mytable.Add(New String(4, 16) {})

and it loads mytable like this:

mytable(x)(y, i) = sToken(i)

Let me explain the indices, I have a form with a tab control. In mytable,x is the tab number. Each tab has up to 5 groups which is y. Each group has 17 text boxes, i.Each group also has 17 labels.I started looking at Me.controls, and looking at control properties like tabindex for some way to iterate through the textboxes and mytable to load the textboxes.

so I started with:

for x = 0 to 31
msgbox(group1.control(x).text
next x

and I saw how all my objects are not in sequence as it descending halfway through my label controls, then switched to my textboxes, and then seemingly finished randomly. I am at a total loss without the old index property and what I want to do is something like (forgive my syntax)

Form(0).Tab(x).group(y).textbox(i).text = mytable(x)(y, i)

I was thinking of manually setting the tabindex of all textboxes in group1 to sequential order to try something like:

group1.component.tabindex(i).text = mytable(x)(y, i)

To me this is fun and challenging, but also very frustrating and makes me miss coding in assembly As I can't seem to find any reference to the tree structure of accessing components indirectly, if that makes sense.

Populating Textboxes Based On A Combobox Selection Using A Datareader?

Mar 26, 2012

I have a database with table "Customer" that will be the datasource for my form controls. My form has a combobox and various textboxes that need to change based on the selectedvalue in the combobox, cboCustNo. Firstly, I'm try to get the combobox to populate with the customer names on the table but have the value member of the combobox set to their customer numbers (just for ease of indexing). Based on the user's selection I'm trying to have various textboxes show the corresponding data (Address, City, Balance, etc.). The code I have so far is below:

Reading Strings In Textfile And Adding Them In A Listbox?

Jan 6, 2012

I can retreive all items in my notepad but when I am adding them up in my listbox, and trying to print them in the console. I can only display two strings. I don't know why. My string is a combination of a name, space & score. ex: "luke 300". That is the pattern of all strings per line in my text file. I am separating the name and the score using space as the indicator. When ever a space is found, string before and after the space is retrieved and added to the listbox

Here is my

scorelist = New ArrayList
reader1 = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "scores.txt")

Visual Basic 2008: Reading From Textfile Into Array And Then Presented In Listbox?

Jan 7, 2012

I've got the following txt file:

[code]...

Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:

[code]...

Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...

My questions are:

1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns

2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )

Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)
