Feb 17, 2010I'm wondering how I can save all my listbox items to a file and load them? Each object in the listbox is a custom class and they are loaded into the listbox kinda like this[code]...

View 5 RepliesI have about 4000 objects of a class, each object with 20 members/variables, integers and strings, total about 80000.
I would like to save these to a file, and read them back into objects when the program starts up.
How would I do this in order to keep track of each variable? I was planning to have each line in the file representing the variables of 1 object. Hence 4000 lines. But basically I'm just looking for the easiest way to save and retrieve this data. Should I first convert the objects to an array of strings?
I am trying to save multiple type of objects to a single file, objects are a custom class that I am able to serializable and another object is a word document that is not being able to serialize via binary. Is there a way to save multiple objects to one file using vb, also would it be possible to save files like how a docx is saved, that is a .zip renamed as docx but get access to inner objects.
View 1 RepliesI'm using the SaveFileDialog to save listbox info into a text file. The files save fine, but when you go to save the file, if you hit the cancel button, it will overwrite the previous file you saved, because it's name was the same and it seems to save the previous file as the new name for your next file. Is there any way to catch if the user clicks cancel, and then exiting the sub if they did?
View 2 RepliesI am making a program that requires a textbox to be saved to a file. The problem is that I have made a custom class for a listboxitem, so I can use tags. I need to be able to save the listbox so that it keeps the 2 tags of each item.[code]...
View 5 RepliesI am currently almost done with my new program which opens, edits, and saves a certain txt file. The only problem I have right now is saving ListBox items to a txt file. If I were to update an existing text file with my program, it would keep the previous data in the txt file and save the data from the ListBox to the txt file.[code]...
View 3 RepliesWhat im try'ing to do is when a ListBox item is selected and the value has been given with a NumericUpDown box and the ''Add to orderlist'' button is clicked that it saved it to a file called "orders.txt", not at startup but when the first order is made.
Some requirements:
U can't order the same thing twice ( only edit it within the editor ).
The "orders.txt" has to open on a TextBox1 at Form2 ( the text editor ).
And the user can only change the order amount in the edit program.
Example:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ListBox1.Items.Add("7226218; Hemlock; 22.55; 0")

Been trying to search the internett and this forum for this commands, but I might have been searcing for the wrong word. Here is the thing.I wanna make a file at the same time as I add it to Listbox.I prefere that the file has the same name as my first label, as there will be 3 more text feelds in that text file.

Dim CC As Integer = Form1.TP1.Items.Count

I've been trying to figure out how to do this correctly for some time now, and I have seen no insight. I'm trying to successfully save all of the items in a listbox without saving items that are not there. What I mean by saving items that are not there is when it saves, it seems that blanks magically appear in the text file.Here is a sample of my current code to save.
[Code]...
I'm not completely sure if it's the loading or the saving that's causing problems, but what would happen is it would add a blank item to the listbox that I do not want.Here's a picture before the listbox is saved, look to the bottom left.Now here is what it looks like after: (notice the red oval)Does any one have any idea what could be wrong?If you want me to attach the text file, just ask.

View 1 Replies[code]I have one button to play all the stuff, but it needs the full path to the mp3 file to play, but I only saved the File name to the Listbox.So basically, I'm wondering how to be able to still select files in the Listbox and press Play, when the Listbox's Items do not include the full path to the actual files.I know I could just add the full path to the listbox from the beginning, but I don't think that looks good.So maybe someone can point me in the right direction, or maybe provide me some source code.

I am developing one vb application. In that I have one list box. I want to add different types of Items. Like Different Colored and differently aligned text(Like one item item is right aligned and one more is left aligned). Can you please tell me how can i do the same.
View 2 RepliesSo I want to click on different things in a listbox and somethings have a picture and some dont. I want the things without a picture to all show the same thing. I've tried this:
Code:
If ListBox1.SelectedItem = object1 Then
PictureBox1.ImageLocation = object1picture
Else

This only works for object2 and I know why, but I dont know the correct way to make it work for multiple objects.
I wasn't quite sure how to label this but that should cover it all. I am using Linq to Sql classes to query a SQL Server table. That part is working fine. I'd like to add the records to a listbox and not just text. I can do this and it works. To get it to display something meaningful in the listbox, I have to override the ToString() function.
So, I've taken the base class tblVendor and created a new sub class tblVendorListObject that inherits tblVendor and overrides ToString to return Me.vendorName. I then use a foreach loop to iterate through the records returned by the query. Next, I create a new instance of tblVendorListObject and attempt to assign the current item in the foreach loop to it.

So they dont have to start from scratch.Here is the code when the user click the Create Car button[code]....

This is an experiment to learn something.
I have a class called logitem
it has a datetime property, and a message as string property
I have declared myLogEntries as List(of logItem)
I have a ListBox.
Ok now what?
I have searched but i am getting lost in all the examples.
I have set the ItemsSource=myLogEntries
I think i need a datatemplate or maybe to specify binding source.
I am doing all this in the wpf form loaded event.
I guess i need a sample code for binding a list of collection to a listbox.
