Remove Character From A Text File And Prevent Crash W/ No Text File?
Apr 7, 2011
All I would like to do is remove one character from the line of the text file that I am reading, which is the first character and also prevent the program from crashing if no text file is present.Here is the code. Can anyone notice where I am going wrong? I thought the "if" statement would cover the crash but it didn't. Clueless, but sort of have an idea on the character removal.

I have a block of text in a text .txt file that looks like this: [code]I've tried reading every character and entering them into a 2D array (failed)I've tried splitting them into individual lines and entering them into a 1D array (Success, but very difficult to target individual characters from this, and will take a long time to set up as I only did this for 10 lines)

I have two text files. The fields in each text file are separated by a space (" "). Some of the fields in column 1 of file 1 match the fields in column 1 of file 2. However the third column in file 2 is a numeric field. What I wish to do is check every field in file1 against the field in file 2, and if the number is 1 then remove the row from file 2, if the number is > 1, then subtract one from it.
I have the following coding so far.
Dim lines1 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File1")) Dim lines2 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File2")) Dim values As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)()

One thing to mention is i dont want to loop through the whole file and change all the Unused to Used. So basically software fires up opens the file and looks for Unused and changes it to Used and does the rest of the function and shuts down. Next time the software is fired up it goes through and does the same thing.
Basically I've got a list of items in a text file, but sometimes a blank line gets inadvertently put in there, and I need to be able to delete that line (or change that line to a set value, either is fine).
my program can add new lines and select url's but I can't get the remove button working, I read that (maybe) I have to read all lines and write a new file.
