Can any1 teach me how to save the stuff written in the text box in the from not in a notepad file so i can retrieve it later in the same form. I just need help learning how to save the stuff written in the text.
tell me a way that i can save the stuff written in 3 text box (Name,Address,Bday) by using a command btn. And then finding all of their information by just entering Name using another button.
I tried to write a text written in my textbox to file.(a .txt). I scanned it to see if it contained any illegal characters, the program said that it did not. However, when I went to save it it said that the program performed an illegal operation.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was unhandled Message: Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A0005 (CTL_E_ILLEGALFUNCTIONCALL).
It created the text file but did not write the content of the textbox to the file.I can save the text in Microsoft word without a problem. Is there something wrong with the encoding for the textbox and how do I set the encoding for the characters so I can write it to a text file.
I have been searching for the past hour to try and find a solution, but I have been unsuccessful. Also, I use VB 2008, so the Common Dialog Suggestion would not work.
I want my application to save the text my users leaves in (the text includes details for the accounts)
Im not sure how to do it where they save it to a text document or maybe if there is a way to save a cookie on the textbox so when the close my app and open it again there infos still there
What is the easiest way to save txtbox text to .txt file? Ofc I also need to choose the folder Im saving the text file. And it is possible to save that text file "to that program" ? I mean if I wrote textfile and click a button (to save text) and restard whole application can the text be saved somehow? If this is impossible (or too hard for me^^) I also need help with loading that saved text file: By clicking button it will open that txt file I saved before.And then (In my opinion) the harder one: If I need to save more than a textbox text.. In my current program it would be good to save (by clicking button) at least labels' texts, numericUpDowns, checxboxs, etc (the data that user had given) from just one form. Not to save whole program, one form is enough. So how this? That file doesnt need to be able to read by another program (like word, excel, etc). And again, the same vice verca. I also need a button which opens that saved file. (And now my english skills came to end)but this button click must also "place the values".For example if I have clicked checkboxs 1, 2 and 4 -> saved file -> opened -> it must show those checkboxes as checked. The same with everything else too (labels, numerics..)
First off, I'm using Visual Basic 2010. I've done pretty well with starting out with some basic things. Copying some codes from tutorials to learn what each code does. But lately I've been venturing into possibilities of ideas in my head, and the recent idea is very simple, but I'm not sure how to approach it.
I have a main form that has options to open up other forms. And in one of those other forms, I want to make it so that you can enter text into a textbox, then click a button to "save" the textbox's content so that anytime the program starts, that previously saved content of the textbox will be the same.
And on top of that, I want to relate the textbox back to the code in the main form.
If I didn't explain that well enough, I'm working on making an extremely basic web-browser (a big jump from what I've been doing), and I added the option under a menustrip to open up Form5 to change the home-page.
I forgot VS 2008 I can add a textbox text to the listbox and save it to IO.File.AppendText (Application.StartupPath & "List.txt")but i cant get it to add with a openfiledialog , now the listbox allready hase text loaded in it , iam trying to add too it with openfiledialog
I am busy with a Project that need to read and write txt files. I have found noumeorous tutorials on how to work with txt files, but none of them explain or or have an example how to do the following:
1) I want to have a button that, when it's clicked, it browse the PC in a specific location for a txt file, and open it in a TextBox1
2) I want to have a button that save text in a specific TextBox as a txt file, and you can name the txt file as you want?
I have the code I need to save the contents of a text box to a text file using the WriteAllText command, and I can view the text file contents using the StreamReader command.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to saving the contents of a TextBox into a html template?
I'd like to have the html file with formatting (H1, H2, table, tr, td etc.) already embedded in the head tags - this I can do already, and will save this html file as the template that the data will be added to.
I will be scanning the computer for system information - OS, Make, model etc and want to have this added to the template in the table layout.
I have text in a textbox that I want to write to a file. I'm trying to think of the best way to do this. Would reading the text into a buffer, then writing the buffer to a file be the best approach? I'm sure there's more than one way of doing this and I wanted to see if anyone had any input on the most efficient way.
I am using OLEDB and using datareader and with the read function i am reading table to the form. But now i want the textbox values to be written to the table? I tried with the fill, but not getting.
I have a browse button that only searchs to .map files. This is my code: >>
Private Sub But_Browse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles But_Browse.Click Dim SelecteerScherm As New OpenFileDialog() SelecteerScherm.Filter = "Only .map files (*.map)|*.map|All Files (*.*)|*.*"
[code]....
When I do ok, how can I get this map file in a textbox ?
how do i code this. my textbox length is 5 and i input only 2 numbers and i want it to save in textfile as 5 Digit ex. i input 2 number in textbox and should be save it as 00012 how can i code this?
I want to make a autotyper and I was wondering how would I make The words I am writing in the textbox be set to a number of times? EX.- say I want to write a word only 10 times instead of it keep repeating..
I want a textbox to have autocomplete. I want the completion to be based off of text that has been previously entered into the textbox. My method of saving seems to work but when i close the program and re run it the autocomplete suggestions arent there anymore.
I am using the following code to enter the data from the keyboard and save it in a text file.
Private Sub EnterXMatrixToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles EnterXMatrixToolStripMenuItem.Click Dim i, j As Integer
