Reading From A File Into A List Box?
Nov 15, 2011
this code needs to be modified to be able to enable the user to select a file in which to store grades. The application should allow the user to write any number of grades into that file and it should write one grade per line. Then it has to be modified to allow the user to specify the location and name of the file containing grades. The application should read the grades from the file, then display the total of grades and the class average.I have it writing to the file fine, but I can't get it to read from a file.Imports System.IO ' using classes from this namespace
Public Class EnhancedClassAverage
Dim fileWriter As StreamWriter ' writes data to a text file
Dim FileName As String ' name of file to save data
[code].....

I have been having some problems with my Visual Basic. In trying to figure that out, un-installing, and reinstalling, running virus scans, etc, I have lost a lot of my time to get this assignment done. I would just keep messing around with it and try to be further along, but I must move on.
We have a form application with 3 tab pages. The first tab page takes input for first name, last name, phone, birth month, and birth year in textboxes. This info is to be written to a file. The next tab page has a read button that then displays the data into a list box. The next tab page has a text box to take input for a birth month and then searches through the file and lists any file that matches that birth month.
The whole thing then needs to be serialized and deserialized.I will post what I have so far. My first question is what do I need to do to get it to read into the listbox? I have tried multiple things. None work. After the issues I had with my visual basic, I don't know if for sure it is me, (most likely), or the software.For the display, we are supposed to use an overloaded ToString method in another class. Do I have to use an array?
private void EnterFriendBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
friend.FName = Console.ReadLine();
friend.LName = Console.ReadLine();

I'm new to VB and new to programming in general. I'm working on some code for school which I'm taking online, and the book doesn't do a very good job of explaining how to do this. The array in the txt file contains this info.

I have a list box, which will contain the item numbers and then a price label which will contain the item price. Here is the code I have, but when it reads from the file, it puts all information from each line. I understand why it does that, I just need to know how to set it up to read it as an array.

Downloading the string would use too much, is there a way i can read it straight from the WebPage without having to download it? It's a a two row table.
I need to compare a TextBox entry to something in the List -first row- and then pull some data from the second row.

I need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
Here's what I know:
1. how to open a new file
2. how to specify the record length
3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?

I want to perform two hashing operations concurrently on a single file, without reading the file twice. Is there some way to share the FileStream between two synchronized hashing threads? For example:
Dim Stream As New IO.FileStream("...", IO.FileMode.Open)
Dim HashA, HashB As Byte()
Dim A = New System.Threading.Thread(Sub()
[code]....
Maybe some way of caching a stream? Trouble is, I don't want the entire file in memory at once (it could be many gigabytes in size) and I don't want the file read more than once, due to speed issues. I want the file cached only sufficiently to ensure that both threads can work.For example, suppose at some point in time, thread A had read 100k of the file, but thread B had only read 20k of the file. The portion of the file between 20k and 100k should be cached; but then progressively forgotten as thread B catches up. Then again, if thread B is too slow, we might still end up with hundreds of megabytes being cached.Maybe thread A should be made to wait while thread B catches up. Maybe the ReadByte() function of the stream should block for a while if one of the threads is too far behind?

friend of mine has no HTML knowledge so I'm attempting to write a program that replaces certain parts of a html file to suit his needs.I've edited the HTML file and marked certain parts with "tags" like this:
#IMAGEURL1# I have a textbox where he can copy + paste an image URL and hopefully the #IMAGEURL1# is replaced with the contents of the textbox.
So can someone please enlighten me to-as how to open a HTML file (there's no textbox to display the contents just yet, I'll add one if needed), find the specified text and then replace it with whats in a textbox.

I am trying to import a TAB (NOt comma) delimited text file into a DataGridView. The following code works fine if I have a comma separated file. All I have to do is change the FMT to "Delimited".It just does not work with FMT=TabDelimited. All columns are read into single datatable column. The text file is ANSI text and I have double checked to make sure Tabs are tabs and not spaces, even exported a sample Tab Delimited file from Excel.Can this even be done using Text Driver? [code]

I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?

I got a log file (Log.txt) a timer and a RichTextBox1.Text The timer is opening the log file again and again every milisecond here the code:
Code:
Okay that keeps the track of my log file inside my richtextbox , but there is a big problem there. My richtextbox slows down hard if the log file gets too big.. Sometimes it kicks me out of the program and in taskbar it says Program Not Responding..
I wanted to know if there is a method to read a bigger Log file with out having such issues. (It mostly happens when log file goes over 13000 characters)

I am in the process (slow process) if learning vb.net by trying to create a simple application that will read and write (save) chosen information to a text file. The application has text boxes (name, email address, etc) and I want to read information from certain lines in the text and place in the given text box.
Code:
Dim StreamToDisplay As StreamReader
StreamToDisplay = New StreamReader("C: esting estfile.txt")
TextBox1.Text = StreamToDisplay.ReadLine()
StreamToDisplay.Close()
Currently it's reading the first line of text (which is "[username]").
Text file (testfile.txt) is attached

I'm currently working on an app that grabs listings from a craigslist search (by saving the RSS feed from the results page as an XML file, and then reading it). However, I'm hitting an error.I have the code below in my Form1_Load event:
Code:
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("http://greenville.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=ipod%20touch&format=rss", "C:UsersBillDocumentsCLtemp.xml")
Dim CLsr As New System.IO.StreamReader("C:UsersBillDocumentsCLtemp.xml")
Dim CLxr As New System.Xml.XmlTextReader(CLsr)
[code].....
Basically I'm grabbing the RSS feed from the web [URL] currently just a test search for iPod touch being sold in Greenville, SC) and saving it as an XML file to the HDD temporarily to be read with a stream reader. Then, it just displays message boxes one after another showing the title of each post. However, when I run the program, I get the error on this line:
Code:
Dim posts As System.Xml.XmlNodeList = CLdataDoc.SelectNodes("rdf:RDF/item")
"Namespace Manager or XsltContext needed. This query has a prefix, variable, or user-defined function."

Dim vrDisplay = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(CurDir() & "keys.txt")

For an example, if I want to read the line that contains the word "Start", how to do that?
