View 4 RepliesI have text in a textbox that I want to write to a file. I'm trying to think of the best way to do this. Would reading the text into a buffer, then writing the buffer to a file be the best approach? I'm sure there's more than one way of doing this and I wanted to see if anyone had any input on the most efficient way.

View 8 RepliesIs there a simple way to save user input from MANY controls (textboxes, comboboxes, etc...) to a text file? When I say 'MANY', I am referring to at least 580 textboxes and several dozen comboboxes.
I may be able to accomplish this using the StreamWriter Class, but doing this individually would take quite a long time. I suppose I could also change all text boxes to richTextBoxes and save to .rtf. It seems like this would be even more time consuming.
Surely there is a simpler way to do this 'globally', perhaps with an added single line of code that points (and saves) to a preset or created text.txt file whenever text is added or changed in a textbox or combobox throughout the program.
If in the label the default text is 10 then ten textbox controls will be generated in webform ...
View 1 RepliesI am currently working on a flatfile based database, meaning: all database records are saved in single files in a data folder of my main application. So far everything works fine except for one thing:
Each record gets currently saved as file under its item name. This sometimes causes problems because some item names contain special characters which can't be used as a file name. What I would like is the following: Whenever I 'add a record' to my database it should be saved in a file with a 4 to 6 digit number as file name - to keep things simple I just ignore the file extension for now.
For example, I add a new record with the ITEM NAME Flower "Blue River" #1 - I won't be able to create the file because of the special characters in there! I would like that the program creates automatically a file in a 4 or 6 digit format (I haven't decided yet how many digits because I am not sure how many data records I will need one day, so, 4 digits will be enougth for now!), starting at 1000, so, the file I am creating is called 1000 + whatever extension I will give it later.
In addition, I would like that it checks for missing numbers in between when creating a 'new database record', meaning: I have already the folloing file names: 1000, 1001, 1002 and one day I delete the second record, so, 1001 would be available for the next new file / data record which I add to my database.
So far I've experimented with the GUID but the filenames I get out of it are just not in an 'eye pleasing' format. Would there be a way to give this GUID a special format or is there any other good way to accomplish that?

View 2 RepliesWhat is the easiest way to save txtbox text to .txt file? Ofc I also need to choose the folder Im saving the text file. And it is possible to save that text file "to that program" ? I mean if I wrote textfile and click a button (to save text) and restard whole application can the text be saved somehow? If this is impossible (or too hard for me^^) I also need help with loading that saved text file: By clicking button it will open that txt file I saved before.And then (In my opinion) the harder one: If I need to save more than a textbox text.. In my current program it would be good to save (by clicking button) at least labels' texts, numericUpDowns, checxboxs, etc (the data that user had given) from just one form. Not to save whole program, one form is enough. So how this? That file doesnt need to be able to read by another program (like word, excel, etc). And again, the same vice verca. I also need a button which opens that saved file. (And now my english skills came to end)but this button click must also "place the values".For example if I have clicked checkboxs 1, 2 and 4 -> saved file -> opened -> it must show those checkboxes as checked. The same with everything else too (labels, numerics..)

I can get it to tell me if the ISBN I entered is valid or not, but there is a second part I need that I keep drawing blanks on. I need to be able to enter an ISBN with a missing digit marked by a "?" in the textbox i am entering the ISBN in. For those who don't know what an ISBN is it...
An ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is a ten digit code which uniquely identifies a book. The first nine digits represent the book and the last digit is used to make sure the ISBN is correct. To verify an ISBN you calculate 10 times the first digit, plus 9 times the second digit, plus 8 times the third ... all the way until you add 1 times the last digit. If the final number leaves no remainder when divided by 11 the code is a valid ISBN.
1.Write a program that reads a ten digit number and validates it.(DONE)
2.Write a program that reads in a valid ISBN with a single missing digit, marked with a ?, and outputs the correct value for the missing digit.(Ehhh....)[code]So i need help making it so i can input a ISBN with a missing digit marked by "?" and output a valid ISBN with missing digit.

What I'm trying to do is make a list of members in a read only textbox getting the data from two textboxes (first and last name) and a 'save' button.
I've made a class named 'Deltaker' (Members in english) to store data and a list 'resultater' (eng: results) using the 'Deltaker' class.
I'm trying to get user input from two textboxes 'tbxFornavn' and 'tbxEtternavn' and I use my class' public function 'Navn' to display it in the textbox 'tbxHistory'.
I've got a sub procedure to add the input to the list and clear the textboxes and enable another reset button.
So for the save button click event I run the sub procedure and I've written a for next loop to display the results from the list. The first name I enter is all good, but with the second name entry both the first and the second name gets listed as well as the first name that is already there. I thought about using the .clear function to clear the list after each input, but I also want to incorporate laptimes in the list and display the best time in a lable at the bottom of the form. Maybe also sort the list, so I need the data in the list to stay intact.
Public Class Form1
Dim resultater As New List(Of Deltaker)
Private Sub AddDeltaker()
