VS 2005 - Reading File Into Buffer / Encrypting And Writing Data
Sep 29, 2009
I'm reading a file into a buffer using the Space function. Then I'm using blowfish dll's to encrypt it, and want to write the encrypted data to a txt file. (I realize you can use .NET cryptography classes, but I need to use these old blowfish dll's for this project.) Anyway, when when I encrypt the data in the buffer, I can see all encrypted data, but when I write it out to a file, I get a few lines of encrypted data and the rest of plain text.
HTML
' BLOCK_SIZE is a const which = 2048
sBlock = Space(BLOCK_SIZE)
Using sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader(FileToEncrypt)
sBlock = sr.ReadToEnd()
End Using[Code] ....

I am trying to write the TOURN structure and then read the TOURN structure back in.. the file gets created on my desktop and the program does not have any syntax errors, but when I READ the file none of the Data gets retrieved. So I am not sure if the DATA was actually saved or it is just not being retrieved?? This is what I have coded so far...

The program that I am writing has three default variables that I would like it to store and also be able to change. I have them in a text file called "settings.txt" The format of the text file is as follows:
Default Source "I:DCIM101MSDCF"
Default Destination "C:Documents and SettingsChristyMy DocumentsMy Pictures"
Default Backup Destination "D:My DocumentsBackupMy Pictures"
The field descriptions eg "Default Source" take up 30 characters, so the variable data starts with character 30. I know their has to be an easy way just to pull out the data from a particular line starting with character 30 but I can't find it.

Even a primer on just reading/writing to a text file would be golden. The array confuses me further, but understanding the data is primary.
Basically, we're writing a program to manage inventory for a bar. Fields and a few lines are below. The delimiter is "||"
So... How do we read the data into the arrays? NAME would be strName(), etc for all of them.
how to write and update existing data.
UID||BREWERY||NAME||SIZE||FORMAT||SEASONAL||PRICE||CASECOST||CASEQTY||BREWERYLOCATION||BREWSTYLE||ST YLE||ABV||CLASS
A0101.12B||Abita Brewing Company||Abita Amber||12

where I'm going wrong with my circular DirectSound Capture buffer here? If I just capture sound into a big non-circular buffer it works fine, but with a 1 second (44100 bytes) buffer and a 100ms timer to poll the read position it goes haywire. No error messages, just long blocks of zeros with short bursts of valid data. calculation of the number of bytes to read and/or the read position.
Here is the code. gBuffer is defined elsewhere as a big byte array. In this example I am just trying to copy the captured sound data from the small temporary byte array (tempBuffer) into the big gBuffer byte array. Obviously this must be done so that every byte is read and copied into the byte array with no gaps or duplication of values. Timer1 is set to 100mS:
Dim McaptureBuffer As CaptureBuffer
Dim MiLastReadPos As Integer
Dim MiBufferOffset As Integer

I�m currently working on a school project and I have encountered a problem in my code. When i write the contents of my listbox to a file called stock.txt it seems write an invisible linebreak in-between each data entry, my problem is that when I load my array on the next form those invisible linebreaks causes my array to load the data incorrectly.
I have attached a pic of my stock.txt file

I have created a small game for my son and after each game it tells him his score.all I want is to write the highscore to a file and have it open each time he begins a game..so he can see what his last score was. I dabbled with all this Io.file stuff and I just can not seem to get it to write to the file..also how do I work with app path in this case? I mean when the game is done and installed the current path of the save text would change.

I am using these API functions for my project where I am handling 3 unmanaged DLLs of two external apps, basically all it does is to carry data back and forth between these external applications. The project needs a lot of use of pointers, passing pointers and reading/writing to memory so both applications can talk to each other.
Declare Function HeapAlloc Lib "kernel32.dll" _
(ByVal hHeap As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwBytes As Long) As Long
Declare Function HeapCreate Lib "kernel32.dll" _

I'm trying to write a program that will read a text file, and sort of filter out some things into some new files for myself. I have a website that I like to put information such as Artists, and songs for music. My website writes the Artist, and Song I input to one file on a new line in the format of (Artist - Song). The problem is it's gotten massive! I want to start organizing my artists, and songs anyway I come up with but I don't even know where to begin. To narrow it down I want to go into the file grab the artists name before the (-) and then write it to one file. After that I want to write everything after the (-) which is the songs to a different file. What file reading, and writing method should I use? As you might be able to tell I'm quite the noob.

few weeks ago i heard my teacher say that it is possible to view any file as a binary array (1s and 0s). if this is possible to do in visual basic please let me know how. Also how would i go about writing an array of binary to a file? For example 01100001 in a .txt file would produce "a"

How would a person read a line of a text file by the number of the line. In other words, if I wanted to get the 3rd line of the file, how could I store that third line in a variable. While I'm at it, I might as well also ask how to do the opposite, or write text to a specific line (in this case, writing over the other information on the chosen line).

Ok so there is an XML file for a program that already exists that stores a list of files along with other information.I need to open this file and read the file names and then potentially add files to it if they DO NOT already exist in the file.It is very important that I not wipe the XML file and have to write it from scratch every time.

I'm using visual basic 2008 express to do some simple stuff. For this project, Im reading in one large text file.The top of each page has a header section that is always the same, except sometimes a dept# changes, signifying a new set of data.The first line always has the text "RunDate", so when I read that, I know that I'm at the top of the first page.After reading the first line, I'd like to immediately go to the sixth line and grab that dept# and store it.dept = left(trim(myline,7)(Its always 7 characters long) so I know what dept I'm working on.I'll then loop through and write each line to a new text file, until I hit the top of a new page.At that point I need to look at line 6 again. if the dept # is the same, I'll keep writing to the same file.Reading and re-writing from the text files is easy, I just loop through line by line, but I need to be able to jump down to the 6th line, and I don't know how to do that without reading each line to that point"

I'm writing a program where there are text boxes and the user can enter info and append them to a text file as well as read from the text file and view the various entries in it. The problems I'm running into are that I have a button that opens an open file dialog box allowing you to select the file, and I want to get it to open the first entry of that file in the correct text boxes. the code so far looks like this
code:
I used to have this bit of code in there but there was a conflict with the .txt file being used more than once at the same time while it was in there.
code:
Im also having trouble writing to the file and I'm not sure why. I have an "Append" button that has this code in it
code:
and it comes up with the issue "object reference not set to to an object instance".

I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?
