Save User Input From Multiple Textboxes To Text File?
Sep 18, 2010
Is there a simple way to save user input from MANY controls (textboxes, comboboxes, etc...) to a text file? When I say 'MANY', I am referring to at least 580 textboxes and several dozen comboboxes.
I may be able to accomplish this using the StreamWriter Class, but doing this individually would take quite a long time. I suppose I could also change all text boxes to richTextBoxes and save to .rtf. It seems like this would be even more time consuming.
Surely there is a simpler way to do this 'globally', perhaps with an added single line of code that points (and saves) to a preset or created text.txt file whenever text is added or changed in a textbox or combobox throughout the program.
I have a sign up sheet that I am working on for instance;
username password street address city state zip
I've been trying to save the textboxes individually but when I go to load the information everthing is pushed all into one textbox.....I'm also using the SaveFileDialog and OpenFil
I'm trying to save the input from the user from several text boxes into a text file, but to append to put after the last record on the next line. I've searched google and have tried the numerous ways but with no luck, and tried searching here but came up with a 502 bad error or something message.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
I am trying to write a form with 6 text boxes that when the update button is pressed it will add the text from each textbox to a text file and the each one separated by a comma on one line. I know how to read/write from a file to a text box and vice versa but I cannot figure out how to add 6 textboxes to the file in one go.

I have a form with 2 TextBoxes that I want to be able to save to a text document like C:Data.txt. When I save to the text document I want it to continuously save. For example it when you open the text file it should look something like this:
TextBox1 TextBox2 ------------ TextBox1 TextBox2
Is it possible to do something like that? A separator is not necessary, would be nice to distinguish different saves.
this application I'm writing is for Employee Data. I have 7 texboxes and 1 combo box.With the file menu I have used that function to save info inputed in one texbox. However for this application I need to use btnSave button to save the record.

Dim result As DialogResult 'find input file With OpenFileDialog1 .Title = "Find Input File"

I was about to create a program about CPU Scheduling (SJF Nonpreemptive), Now, I want to ask the user to input the no. of processes ,then based from the user's input I would display exact no. of text boxes where the user could enter the value for each process then store it in an array. But I don't know how to code the text box., I'm new to VB.net and I'm used to it's 'drag and drop' nature. I just want to know how the code to output this text boxes. and is it possible to have an array of text boxes?
I have lines in my text file like this: x y x Y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y
Lets say I have 20 lines like this. I want to change this lines according to user input. So user will input how many lines they want to change in terms of row and column. In my program Row=TextBox5.Text column=TextBox6.text User must enter initial value for x and y. Let say the initial value is x=1 y=1. Row=2 column=5..
Now my lines should look like this. 1 1 2 1 3 1 4 1 5 1 1 2 2 2 3 2 4 2 5 2 x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y x y
Since I enter row=2 only two set of lines is change other lines remain unchange. But in my coding all the lines is changing like this: 1 1 2 1 3 1 4 1 5 1 1 2 2 2 3 2 4 2 5 2 1 3 2 3 3 3 4 3 5 3 1 4 2 4 3 4 4 4 5 5 which is wrong.
This is my code Dim lines() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines("C:\wirematches.txt") Dim xValue As Decimal = Val(TextBox1.Text) Dim yValue As Decimal = Val(TextBox2.Text) Dim altValue As Decimal = 2.54 Dim lineTracker As Integer = 0 [Code] ..... This code working fine for changes the column. But i dont know where i should write the code for row.
I need to to able to save multiple text-boxes and a combo-box to a text file. the thing is, when I go to save, I check out the .txt file manually and its saved all in one line, no spaces. when I go to "read" it with the 2nd part (<-----this is a 2 part Challenge) it even reads all from that one line in the text file. What i'm asking is how can I make my text-boxes saved in the text file on different lines. [Code]

I need to pull a random word from a text file in my resource folder (visual Studio 2010) and then have a user enter a letter to see if it is in the word. Yes, Hangman game. There is more, but right now I need to pull from that text file for a start. I know what I have is not even close to right under "Get Word Button", but I'm kind of confused about the process.
Public Class hangMan Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim word As New Random End Sub

If my Category and Forum selection is incorrect I am sorry and feel free to move it. I'd like to have the users input in the message box that will show. For example: There is a textbox and the user puts in their name as Bob. Then the message box would be: What my main goal is, is being able to include the users input they type inside the textbox inside the message box.
I am developing an application that will call to the current user path so that a text file can be saved. I have seen a few forum threads that call to the current user path but I have been unsuccessful in making it work. Id like to try and save a text file, lets say 'test.txt' to 'C:Users(current user)My Documents' [URL] The above link has a way of calling the current user name, but when I publish the application, all it does is call to 'C:UsersMy Documents' and ultimately does not work. I have searched multiple terms and about 20 pages deep into google each time.
I'm working on an application (ASP.NET, Webforms) that generates a list of outputs based on a user input. I want to allow the user to save the contents of said list as text file, or possibly as other filetypes such as .csv.Can it be done client-side with Javascript?
i am developing a small windows application in vb.net using visual studio 2005.i want to design a form where user can enter multiple records.like we want to design a "bill" form where user can create the bill for any no of items.there are 4 colmns in it : item no , item name , quantity , price.
my requirement is that if user user a particular item from the list of item in first column then the column "item name" get filled automatically from the database. then user can enter qty , price for that item.on clicking a save button all the data entred by user should get saved in a table in SQL database.
now user can create bill for 1,2 or more items. so no of rows are variable.
HOW could i achieve this using vb.net and SQL server 2005 as databse.
I have a form with 12 text boxes that a user must fill. I need then by pressing a button to promt for the save directory and save the input as ".".txt file. Moreover i need each line of the txt to correspond to each one of the txtboxes. So the input to the first box will be the first line of the txt file,...the input of the ninth box the ninth line of the txt file.
What i'm attempting to do is have several textboxes where the user input's there information and a seperate text box to give there input a name so it can be sent to a combobox and saved with my.settings so when the program loads or the user needs the textboxes populating they can select the name in the combobox and it fill out the textboxes.
VB.NET 2008 windows app form.I have a groupbox with several checkboxes, comboboxes, and textboxes within it.With the help of StackOverFlow members, I've learned how to use the FOR/NEXT loop to find all checkboxes that are checked.[code]As you can see by the code sb.tostring will print every checked checkbox name on its own line.How do I associate the proper combobox.selecteditem, textbox.value, and checkbox name to print out on the same line.When I say proper...example; checkbox=pen, combobox=color, textbox=quantity.Let's say my other checkboxes are different items and the rest of the boxes are the same.
I'm just trying to create a graph where the user can input data into textboxes and then plot the data. I am attempting to use Zedgraph, but open to other suggestions. The program below creates a plot, but it won't update when the textboxes are updated.
Imports ZedGraph Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
I am trying to draw textboxes when the user enters the amount of textboxes to be drawn on one form and the textboxes get displayed on the another form. I have found these codes online but it works with inbuilt codes I guess. That is, the number is already hard coded in the form.
