Is there a simple method to tell whether a certain word is present in the webbrowser (not the source, but the visual stuff).
I can't use the source because it takes too much time to load when it's a rather large site page. And I believe I can't use instr on webbrowser1.HtmlDocument.
Who can point me in the right direction, I didn't find any solution myself with google. I only need to know if for example the word 'New' is present on this page, so a True or False must be returned
I have made an app that will check to see if a website is on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th page of google, the websites are in a datagridview. I am using five webbrowser controls but it begins to get slower and slower? As it searches for each website using a for statement. How to improve this code to make it run quicker, or even a better way to go about it.

What I'm looking to do is read from a text file (config file) to execute a program.The point of the text file is to have user customizable buttons.Being very new to coding
View 7 RepliesI'm trying to make a script that searches for multiple .TXT files in a directory, and then searches the text of each file for a matching string(ie. "turtles"). It will search each file for the word "turtles". I've been on google trying to figure this out for a while, I'm guessing StreamReader is the way to go?

I know this is my first post and Im very sorry its a question right away. I apologize for this, but I felt that I have to ask, I was searching all over and couldnt find answer, probably I just need help to define the keywords..searching for a name of a monster in some game and move the mouse onto it. Example: In middle of the screen, there is monster named: AAA I would need the program to search for the name "AAA" and move the mouse onto it.

View 9 RepliesIt seems simple enough, but apparently I cant figure it out. Theres more to my actual problem, but once I figure out this concept then I can do the rest. I want to search a list for a given string, and if it matches, then print it out. If it doesnt match, then it moves to the next item in the list. If if doesnt find any matches, it says "no matches found".

I have the following simple code for searching for a text string within a folder and have several questions:
Dim searchFolder As String = "C:BakerOrders estOrders"
Dim files As ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)
files = My.Computer.FileSystem.FindInFiles(searchFolder, "NEXT DAY PM", True,
[Code].....
The folder will contain up to 1,000 text files (at any point) at 20kb to 50kb each. The scan should occur every 5 sec with ~200 new files and (-) ~200 exiting files during this period.
Questions: The previous code only catch files from 1 text string. Is there a way of doing one search and returning the files which contain any of the 3 strings? Is there a more effective way of achieving this? Is there a simple / effective way of searching each file only one time by keep track of previous results while searching only the 200 new additions each scan?
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.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a folder search operation. The folder will have several text files (.txt), and user will specify the folder path and a search string, and the program will search the exact string within the text files which are located in the specified folder, and show the files. So far I've done nothing. I don't know how I can do folder operations with vb.net. a link to reading material.

View 2 RepliesI've got two text files. The first has got a list of certain keywords. Each one if these keywords are fed into a combobox. Now, when I choose one of the items from this combobox, I want to search the other textfile for the same keyword and read from that point to the next keyword. And then feed each line into a listbox. Perhaps I should use an INI-file for this purpose, doesn't really matter for me.
The textfiles have this structure;
Textfile1:
London
Oslo
New York
Hamburg
Amsterdam
The second textfile has this structure;
Textfile2:
'London'
Apples
Oranges
Pears
'Oslo'
Pasta
Salami
Monkeyballs
'New York'
Dada
Duda
Dadadish
Is this possible? The reason I want to do it this way is to create a fully dynamic system. One which relies fully on whatever information is stored in these textfiles. I'm gonna build pretty complex strings from these results later on. So far, I've got this to read the first file and add each line to the combobox:
Dim oReadMenuFunction as System.IO.StreamReader
oReadMenuFunction = IO.File.OpenText("textfile1.txt")
Do While oReadMenuFunction.Peek <> -1
Dim LineIn as String = oReadMenuFunction.ReadLine()
Combobox.Items.Add(LineIn)
Loop
I'm trying to get help or idea how to get certain things out of text file. I don't know even if it's possible, but I hope so.[code]I need to get that number what is after /kick "nr". Also I need to get last /kick "nr".

There's an INI file that I want to access and read information from. This is the complete content of the INI file in question: http:[url]....I believe it is because of the [ ] tags in that INI file. Because they work if I remove the tags.My program has a bunch of comboboxes, trackbars and checkboxes. These items will be filled by the information taken from the INI file.For instance, ini file has these lines;
bCrosshairEnabled=1
bDoDepthOfField=0
bFXAAEnabled=1[code]...
Example: I want the checkbox8 in my form to get checked if bFXAAEnabled has a value of 1 or unchecked if it is 0.
I have been taking a class in Visual Basic and am currently working on my final project which I am having some trouble with. I am using Visual Basic 2010 express The project is to create an application that will store data in a text file, specifically, Last Name, First Name, Customer Number, Address, City, State, ZIP Code, Telephone Number, Account Balance, and Date of Last Payment. I have gotten everything done except the ability to search the file by Last Name or Customer Number. I have no idea how to go about this? I was thinking of ways to use indexof or Readline to be able to search the data, but I'm not familiar enough with the code to come up with a good solution. Below is a picture of how my form looks..As you can see, I'm currently using 2 separate forms to get the data from the user. Here is the code for Form1 which is the "Customer Accounts" form in the picture.
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Public customerFile As StreamWriter ' Object variable
Public customerFile1 As StreamReader ' Object variable
Public strFile As String

There isn't enough room to post the code for my secondary form, but you get the idea. I would like to be able to enter a search term in the textbox on the bottom right of the form, and either search the data as its displayed in the listbox, or search the actual file? I was thinking that the results would be displayed in a messagebox?

I have to scan through documents. Excell, Word, txt, ect looking for company names that match a pre-difined list of companies.I then email the companies some specifics in regards to that doc.The problem I have been having recently is that the list of companies keeps growing and I am starting to miss some more than I used to.What I would like to build is a tiny app that has 2 Text boxes.1 on the left for input (where I would copy/paste) the document text I receive.and one on the right for the output where it will highlight any line that contains the name of any of the pre-defined companies.
I started toying with the idea and so far I have form with a SplitContainer. Within that SplitContainer each side has a TextBox... Below the Textbox on the left hand side splitcontainer I have a submit button with no actions currently assigned to it.

On a image file (PDF), the OCR has recognised the picture and text. However on Visual Basics, how do you search for a text on this image file? The primary goal is to allow a text search (i.e POxxxxx) on all the image files (PDFs). The returns of the search will be the assciated image files where the text (i.e POxxxxx) is found on.
View 1 RepliesMy app is a Bible Reader. At load up I can choose Genesis Ch1 and its entirety pops into a rtb. I enter a word to search for like 'God' and hit the SEARCH button. The results I get are initially what I want. I get the verse 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. But then the app replaces the script with other words containing God, but all jumbled up.
