I'm making a button to delete lines not containing specific text.
For example, if the text is "test". I want to remove all lines not containing "test" in it.

So here's a example
[quote=randombla13] I am the king of the world bla bla
[img]http//google.com/img.jpg[img]
[quote]This line should not be removed[quote]
[quote]
Now as you can see these are the codes you may have seen in many forums
Now want i want .Net to do is filter the the content in a textbox
And remove only the lines marked with red "[quote=randombla13]" from the first line
And the Extra "[quote]" from the end line
As you can see in the example the content has two "Quotes" so i jest want to remove only one from the first line and last line of the content
And note "[quote=randombla13]" the length after the = is Unknown it maybe of 6 characters or less or more

I have a text file that I'm reading into a listbox. I want to skip a line if it's blank. The following code works if I leave out the check for the line being blank. It puts the file in the listbox with no errors. However, when I include the If statement that checks for the line being blank, I get an ArgumentNullException in the Items.Add line when It gets to the end of the file.

I'm trying to remove the first and last lines from a text file. Obviously the last line will be at an undetermined position (i.e. line 50 or 5000). I couldn't figure how to remove the lines, so I wrote code that would rewrite every other line:

When I used (?mn)[+CMGL:].*($) it removes the whole text , when I use (?mn)[+CMGL:].*(

I have a program that will read a text file and put information from the text file into multiple text boxes. What I am trying to do now is be able to change the values in the textboxes and be able to write the specifc changes back to the text file. One way I though of doing that was using a while loop and copy the lines of the text file to another text file, then when it finds the line that has the specific change from the text box, make the change and continue writing the line until it reaches the end of the file. Then I was going to copy the file and overwrite the original, escientally making the change to the new file. Right now it will make the new file but will just make a blank text file. I think the problem is in the while loop statement but I am not sure. Here is the code below:
Code:
Private Sub submitButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles submitButton.Click
Dim trackname As String

I'm trying to create a program that stores a users stats for their character (for something like an RPG). I know how to write more than one line in a text file, but I want to learn how to read and write text on specific lines of my file. I know that you can just read each new line individually in order using a StreamReader, such as
username.text = readLine.ReadLine()
userage.text = readline.ReadLine()
[Code]....
This is good for just displaying the stats and changing them from a constant interface, but I'm afraid that eventually I'll need to read/write specific lines, like reading the fourth line which might specify magic level, or writing a new money amount.
I'm new here and I'm trying to make a little program with Visual Basic (2010 Express Edition).The purpose of this program is:
1) Load the text file lines and split them into a constant and a value
2) Edit the text file lines values
The content of the text file is like this:
[Code]...
This basically split every lines in two parts: the constant ("Name", "Surname", "Age", "Hair") and the values ("Mario", "Rossi", "50", "Black").Now about the second point, I've added a Button1 which should take the Textbox1/2.Text and the Combobox1 selected item and replace the values(aka separator(1)) in the text file. The problem is I don't have any idea at the moment how to do it. What method should I use?
Im trying to change specific lines of text in a listview at certain times of the day. Heres what im using atm , but im not sure how to change the text in the listview.

I am trying to read from a file that was created with a stream writer the names line from the text file that contains data for name, phone number, pager number, cell number, voice mail, and email.What I need to do is read and load the names from the file into a list box, and then from the list box be able to choose each name and have the information (phone, pager, cell, etc.) show up in text boxes that goes with the specific name.

I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..
Dim ary() As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:MenuFiles.txt") Then
[code]....
The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.

How can I remove lines from textbox which starts with "<"?
So me and a friend started a project in school and we decided that i'll do most of the design part and he'll do most of the coding. I wanted to change the design on my buttons and changed the button image background and changed flatstyle to flat. Now there's this thin white line around every button instead. how can i get rid of it? Check attachment.

View 13 RepliesI have two text files and each text file has various columns (each column is separated by a tab " "), now some of the fields in column1 text file2 match the fields in column1 text file1. What I'm trying to achieve is to remove every row in text file 1 where the field in column1 matches the field in column 1 textfile 2 - is this possible?I have used some basic coding in the past to remove certain lines, but nothing as complex as this.
Dim linesList As New List(Of String)(File.ReadAllLines("Path"))
linesList.RemoveAt(1)
File.WriteAllLines("Path", linesList.ToArray())
