Trying to fill listboxes from a .txt file, but I only get 1 line. How do I loop the stream reader until the Field(0) changes. My txt file looks like this: [code] The number goes into a combobox, the name into a label, and the rest into listboxes, so I I need all the Gross Pay for person 100 in a list box.I have a module that reads the file into an array PayRolls (), And so far this is my code for the combobox.

im trying to populate a list box from a text file using the System.IO.StreamReader class
and my code blows up right here:[code...]
The program dies at lstFilePreview.Items.Insert(Counter, ObjReader.Readline.ToString)and it gives me the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error.
I have a stream reader going into an array with a .split on it:
strNstring = sr.ReadToEnd.Split(New [Char]() {" "c}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
If the file is set up like:
the
dog ran and jumped
in
the grassy
[code]....
Is there any way to set the split to fix this and just have them come in correctly?
I just need to know where my code is jacked -up at, I get an error when I created the module level variable ( class statement must end with a matching end class) problem is that every time I add an end class the next procedure is wrong with the same error, so what can I do to resolve this and why is this error coming up. Ultimate goal of this program is to add the invoice totals to the next element in the array each time the user clicks calculate, which displays in a message when the user clicks the exit button, also this code will sort the invoice totals in the array.
Public Class frmInvoiceTotal
Dim SumInvoice(4) As Decimal 'Delareation of two module- level variables
Dim I As Integer = 0' the index I can use to work with this array
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
[Code] .....
Define a structure named product, The structure should contain 2 variables one as a string and the other as a decimal. The decimal is used to store the price and the string is used to store the item number.
Declare a module level array that contains 5 product structure variables
Code the main forms load event procedure so that it reads the item number and prices from the itemInfo.txt file The procedure should store the item numbers and prices in the module level array. It also should add the item numbers to the list box.
When the user selects an item in the list box the items price should appear in the xPriceLabel. code the appropriate procedure.
The code I have is as follows
' Project name: Glovers Project
' Project purpose: The project displays the price of an item.
' Created/revised: <your name> on <current date>
[Code].....
Seems the problem I am having is this line is returning a value less than 0.
itemprice = (itemnumber.Substring(productIndex, newLineIndex - productIndex))

View 3 RepliesThe bigger problem is that I can't seem to get everything involving using stream writer and reader working. If I start of with a .txt file already correctly formatted then I can display it in the list box. But adding data during run time is not proving successful.

I've set up a stream reader to get data from a serial file, functionality for that is already set up.
My problem is that the program seems to be missing out every other line of code in the file, which kinda defeats the point of a serial file. [code]...

From few days I am doing efforts to read web pages using webbrowser control in my desktop application. But it is very slower than my expectations(because I want to read lots of pages in minutes and browser control reads almost one page in 5 to 10 seconds), what I need is to read two or three tags written in web page.
So finally I decided to use something, which can give me only source code of page. I think StreamReader will help me to read it. I am not sure if it is flaxible with my purpose, or something else is there which can give me only html source code of web page.
I have written this code to read html code, but it gives error.

I have been using the following Stream Reader code for over a year now to pull information from 3 websites w/ no issues. Recently my users are getting massive amounts of "Timeout" errors. I have opened a ticket w/ the IT department but they have not found any issues (we are experiencing off/on issues w/ our web traffic speeds in our department). Per the code I have the timeout set to 20 seconds but the Timeout error occurs in only a few seconds from the System.Net.WebException.

I am downloading page data using the stream reader using readline.I want to concatenate each line into one long string for parsing The below line of code is not working: datajoined =dataline.Insert(datajoined.Length - 1, dataline.Length - 1)My inevitable goal here is to track stream data with a progress bar. But first I must learn to dload page data in chunks.

I'm trying to setup a simple app that reads a file and then writes the contents to another file using OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog. Looking at the debbugger it looks like it's reading fine, I can see the data I want written. Towards the end of my code I get the following error message:"Illegal characters in path". I've researched this error. I'm not using any illegal characters such as /\? etc and the pathname contains all alpha characters. I'm pulling the test file from the C drive and trying to save it there as well.

I am trying to make my application read data from a file. Then save the data back. However I keep getting an error which says the file is still open so cannot be edited. I also read that there is an issue with the streamreader and streamwriter do not close the program straight away. I was wondering if anyone had a way around this or any alternative ideas. Heres my code so far!

I am new to Visual Basics and I am using Visual Basic 2008 express. I have been using video tutorial on line to learn VB and they are great in explaining what is happening the code vs. just looking at code. I think from what little I can find I would be using StreamWriter WriteLine and StreamReader readLine .I am using a couple of forms. I am looking for simple basic code to use a form as a way of modifying timer intervals and store the values in a single text file on separate lines.
Description:
Form1: will contain the main code that will run. It will contain some timers. I want the timers to look in a text file for their intervals. Each timer would be on a different line.
Example:
Timer1 interval would be located on line 3
Timer2 interval would be located on line 6
Timer3 interval would be located on line 20
Form2: will contain 3 textboxes. This is where when I load form2 I will also read the same values from the text file to preload the text boxes. I will now be able to change the timer intervals as needed and press a button to update the text file. The update button will also reload the new timer settings on Form1. This is very similar to how a CNC Machine works with Parameter settings. This can be useful for storing many different settings for a form that a user can modify and be stored and reloaded next time the program runs.
I have a text file that has different controls for text boxes. This text file controls the BackColor, BorderStyle, Font-Bold, Font-Size, Height, Width, ReadOnly, and TextMode a sample is below:
*****Detail Header
txtDetailHeaderBackColor = Black
txtDetailHeaderBorderStyle = None
txtDetailHeaderFont-Bold = False

some link or could that could explain the way it could be done.

I have an app that the user picks items from a checkbox list. I have the items selected saved to a seperate db table. I want to be able to have the selected items repopulate as selected if the user reopens the web page.What I've tried:I've pulled the items selected previously back to a hidden list box which works but I can't figure out how to compare what is in that list box with all the items contained in the checkbox list (this is being populated by another seperate table in the db)I've tried just a straight query and used reader but keep getting errors about cast and if I switch it to a GetDecimal, when I try to see what it's pulling, it's not the data but maybe the index: See below:Does anyone out there have a sample of can help me figure out how to just have this stupid checkbox list reselect the items that the user previously selected and saved to the db?

I am new to .NET from VB6. So I do not have any background with streams, however the concept seems straight forward. I am trying to populate a listbox using the ADD method with the data originating in a text file. Using a stream reader I am aquiring the data (I can prove that the data is there at every itteration using the debugging tools). However, it doesn't make it into the listbox. I have other data appear withn the listbox in a couple of different ways just to prove that there is nothing wrong with the way the listbox is setup or coded. The listbox is a single instance item on a form, all setup is done through the properties window.
