Saving Text Box Contents?
Sep 26, 2010
make a diary style application where a password must be typed in then when that is typed in it is possible to view and edit the text. I have it all working but the only problem is that I don't know how to save the text box's contents. I have read a few threads and haven't found an appropriate answer. The problem is that since it's supposed to be a diary I would like to save the text so that it may not be read, preferably not by making another file but by storing it in the program?
Here's the code I have for it so far:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim Password As String
Password = TextBox1.Text
[code]....
Textbox1 is where the password is entered, Textbox2 is where the actual text for the diary would go, Button1 processes the typed in password, Button2 hides the text and clears password box, Button3 does nothing and has the text "Save" and I would like to use this button to save. Is there also an automatic way of saving?

I've got a textbox using a custom auto complete source, which gathers info from what the user has previously typed. Problem is, I can't figure out how to have that source saved when the application closes and loaded when the application opens.

I want to make a button to save the contents of a textbox to a text file.
However, I want to create a popup screen so I can select where to save it and as what file name like the picture below.
Is there an easy way of doing this or do I need to create another form to do this.

using the code below to save and reload the contents (text and images) of a Listview to a single file. The images are about 100x100 pixels.The problem is that if I save the images as JPG (they are already JPG when adding them to the ImageList/Listview), then after saving and reloading the data a dozen times, the images get distorted. When saving/reloading the images as PNG a dozen times, white spots starts to appear on the images. I guess this is because the images are converted over and over again when saving them.Is there a better to way save the contents of the Listview to a single file? I do not want to save the text and images seperately, because then the user has more to tamper with.

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.

I'm in the final stages of finishing a program I've been working on for nearly a year now, and this is basically my final hurdle. The Save dialogue is working beautifully, with 'flags' in order to switch it over from the regular input into text boxes to the Listbox input protocol.

I am writing a simple program that will encrypt the text that is held in a text box and save it to a text file but I want it to be able to open a text file and decrypt the contents.
Ok now all the threads I have read are about reading a text file that is in a preset location.
What I want to do is open a text file that the user selects and have the contents displayed in a text box.

how to permanently save to text files then re-open all of the information again using SFD and OFD. Now my teacher has come back at me and said that i need to be able to save the information from multiple text boxes and have the text in certain labels to also be saved into the one text file (the labels need to be done because it is a database and these labels are like the fields and the right text box needs to match the right label)

I am building a program to populate an Excel invoice template. The program works for the most part, except for one odd flaw. The program calls a module which first checks that two text boxes on a form have been completed. However, whilst the program does see when one of the text boxes has not been filled in (txtContact) it doesn't see the other (txtCustomer) even if I change the name of the text box to check it still only responds when the the other text box is empty.

When the user clicks on one of the textboxes it becomes blank and it's contents are displayed in the other text box. I seem to be using the correct codes but can't get it to work right. Does anyone know the correct code for this?

With this code, I tried to put the contents of a collection (Info) into a text box but it didn't work. I would be glad if someone can examine it and tell me what is wrong. (Visual Studio builds the program fine and runs it, but when I click on Button3, this comes up:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
Additional information: Argument 'Index' is not a valid value.
Here is the code I used (When the error occurs I made it bold):

Dim Info As New Collection()
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

I need to scan all files on our solution (aspx, js, ascx, etc). Our solution contains 22 projects all in all. What I need to accomplish is to search for all files which contains "img=" in its content (not filename containing "img") I don't want to do this manually of course (opening and checking files one by one). How I can do this faster.

I have a webpage that is used to modify information in a database. The information is properly pulled from the database and properly displayed in their appropriate text boxes. The problem arises when i change the information and try to resubmit it to be saved. Unfortunately it never takes my edited information and reverts back to the original value that was loaded when the page was loaded.
All of the code has been tested out side of the masterpage and it is working properly so i am under the impression that it has something to do with the use of the masterpage. If my understanding is correct i cannot just do something like me.txtName.text to address an object in the content pages. So here is a snippet of the code and the portion that i am assuming has a problem.
[Code]...
The code shows the two methods that i have used to try and use findcontrol to access the text boxes. Both methods seem to locate the textboxes but once I pass the values to linksUpd it reverts back to the value that was originally loaded into the page and discards all of my changes.

I'm trying to read the contents of a text file. Everyone says it's a piece of cake, but I still get error "404 Not Found" even though the site exists.
I'm using the following:
Dim myRequest As HttpWebRequest
Dim myResponse As HttpWebResponse
myRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("[URL]") 'This does work
myRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("[URL]") 'This does not
myRequest.Proxy = New WebProxy("http://proxy address", True)
myRequest.Method = "GET"
myResponse = DirectCast(myRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
When I hit the [URL] the myRequest.GetResponse command passes the contents of the site into myResponse. However, hitting the [URL] always returns 404 even though it exists.
