View 9 Repliesi can always get the first word to translate but the other words jumble together and sometimes repeat themselves. The rules for this program are as follows: To translate an English word into a pig Latin word, place the first letter of the English word (if it is not a vowel) at the end of the English word and add the letters ay. If the first letter of the English word is a vowel, place it at the end of the word and add Using this method, the word jump become umpjay, the word the becomes hetay and the word ace becomes ceay. Blanks between words remain blanks. So far this is what I've got:

i trying "Removing the first 3 characters of text box's text".
i tried this
TextBox3.Text.Remove(3)
I'm really stuck on something, which, is probably easy, but I've blown hours trying to figure this out.I need to be able to remove 1 line from a textfile. I will always know exactly what line it is, as, it's the same "string" as a variable. So if my variable is called "removeThis" then I need to be able to Read through the textfile, find the line that is equal to the removeThis string variable, and then rewrite the whole textfile.

View 4 RepliesI have been working on this for quite some time now. I have a listbox that loads the names from a .txt file. When the user selects names I need it to delete the items from the list.

View 2 RepliesI know this has been asked like a million times, but I cannot seem to find a solution that works for me. I have a text file..and lets say its named Test.txt.I have like a list of stuff in the file and I have a Remove button. I also have a listbox that has the contents in the Test.txt file listed on the form_load. So basically to try to explain this better..what I want is to delete the line that is selected in the listbox when I click the remove button. Let me explain in an example.The Test.txt has the same contents as the Listbox..so say my list is like this:
Hi
How
Are
You
If I have Hi as my Listbox.SelectedItem then I would like to remove that line from the Test.txt. I tried to load the contents of the file in a TextBox too and I can search and find the text in the textbox and focus on it and highlight it but I cannot delete it from there too.

View 6 RepliesI am attempting to get my program to store its, in this case, a Url list in a text file. This should be relatively simple and so far it has been, writing to the document has been easy and it has all worked well, however, I have been trying to get my program to remove a url from this list too. To achieve this I have created a temporary text file, named 'FavouritesTemp.txt' and write the content of a listbox (with the target of the delete command removed from it) and then replace the old text document with the new one. But I keep getting an error from this - saying that a process is already accessing this file, even though I have just created it! I have attached a picture of my error and the code I am using underneath.
Code:
System.IO.File.Create(My.Settings.ProgramInfoStorePath & "FavouritesTemp.txt")
MsgBox("Created FavouritesTemp.txt")
Dim FavouritesWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(My.Settings.ProgramInfoStorePath & "FavouritesTemp.txt", True)
