I am using Visual Basic 2010 with Windows 7. My code is is follows:
Dim file as system.IO.StreamReader
file = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(C":financialsprogramcurrency.txt")
TextBox1.text=file.ReadLine()
file.Close
For some reason my program does not execute beyond the Dim statement and instead displays the form without text in TextBox1.
the default readline method of streamreader reads the text file from top to bottom how i can reverse it?from bottom to top?

I am writing a click event to delete an item selected from a list view which will utlimately be deleted from the csv file the information is coming from.Currently I am having streamreader read each line and then replace the selected line with a blank line. This creates blank lines in my csv files. Is there a way to delete a line using sr or sw without creating blank lines?Or is there a way to have them read/write a file skipping any empty lines?

I would like to be able to select more than one and have the whole of the lines loaded. I have tried many approaches, 'For each line' for example, but cant get my head around it. Another issue is that i would only like to see the textfile name in the listview box instead of path and filename.
I am in the process (slow process) if learning vb.net by trying to create a simple application that will read and write (save) chosen information to a text file. The application has text boxes (name, email address, etc) and I want to read information from certain lines in the text and place in the given text box.[code]When I start debugging mode it does not display the text until I click onto the text box and it's displaying the first line of text in the file. How do I skip the first line of text and have it display the second line (or the 6th, 24, or whatever line I need to be displayed)?Then I can start working on learning to use streamwriter

View 8 Replieshow to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.
example:

2-tommyperrry
3-marktoms
4-Jonessmith
5-paulwhite
Obviously this is 5 lines and that's what I need to count.

To automate mailmerge function in word, i need to join different elements to complete the mailmergedatasource. In one of these file are words with special characters like ©, §,¨, .... When openng these files for reading, streamreader transfoms the characters to unreadable signs. When i give a type to use to open like ASCII, Unicode,it works for one or tho characters but not for all. I have the same problem when the character is read correctly, with streamwriter output to a textfile. Word cannot read the textfile and ask to define which type of coding should be used. In most of the cases not all the characters can be converted to readable characters.
