VS 2005 : Create A Source To Get The Strings From The Text File Using ReadLine Method?
Aug 22, 2010
I need a bit of advice. I am working on my project with the listbox. I know how to create a source to get the strings from the text file using ReadLine method, but I have no idea how to split the strings in the text file by on the third commas and ignore the other strings while select with the matched strings on the listbox for each row.Here it is an example listbox Here it is an example items on the listbox
random item 1
random item 2
random item 3
random item 4
random item 5
And here it is an example text file.
example strings one, any strings 1, any random strings 1, other strings 1, final end of strings 1
example strings two, any strings 2, any random strings 2, other strings 2, final end of strings 2
example strings three, any strings 3, any random strings 3, other strings 3, final end of strings 3
example strings four, any strings 4, any random strings 4, other strings 4, final end of strings 4
example strings five, any strings 5, any random strings 5, other strings 5, final end of strings 5
The listbox is display the list of an example items, so if I select the "random item 1" item on the listbox, it read the strings through in the text file on the first line to get the strings on the third commas in the same line which it is (any random strings 1) to split it while ignore the other strings (other strings 1, final end of strings 1) that come fourth and fifth commas. So, if I select the "random item 2" item on the listbox, it read the the strings through in the text file on the second line to get the strings on the third commas in the same line which it is (any random strings 2) to split it while ignore the other strings (other strings 2, final end of strings 2) that come fourth and fifth commas and so on...That is what I am trying to achieve by select the each listbox item to get the correct strings for each line in the text file that come on the third commas while to ignore the other strings.

I've got my self in to a pickle here.I'm trying to do something I used to do in basic? At-least I think you can do this in Basic, you know Qbasic,What I'm trying to do is put 4-8 strings on to one line separated by a comma.Example might be:
writer.writeline (bob1, bob2, bob3, bob4) Out put might look like Test, Test2, Test3, Test4
I'm tried looking in to formatting of writeline/write, but I didn't get any where with it.
Also if this is possible- I would like to be able to read it just like :
reader.readline (Rbob1, Rbob2, Rbob3, Rbob4) If anyone cold just point me in the right direction, I'm sure I can figure it out - If not... Well I will ask another question.

how to create a save to text file method with a try catch in the method in a class and then call this save method from a button on a window form. I am currently doing the save method under the button directly but to tell you the truth i would prefer to just do it one time and call it from different locations in the various forms i have, then copying it all the time.

I have a program that is hooked to an external device via rs232. I can send and receive messages to this device just fine using the ReadLine() method of the serial port. This allows me to send a command and wait for a response in a synchronous manner. However, when I start the program I need to check the status of the device. If the device is in a sleep state, off, or on, I send a command and get a response, however, if the machine is unplugged, I get nothing so my program will hang waiting for a response before continuing. I would like to abort the readline after 1 minute and display a message that the external device is not connected or having a problem, etc. and allow the program to load. The command I use to check the device is:
Do Until Mid(balanceStatus, 1,3) = "S S" 'This is the return command that the status is read
spBlance.Writeline ("S")
balanceStatus = spBalance.Readline 'This will cause the program to hang if the external device is unavailable[code]....
That readline is causing the program to hang. So I need a way to abort if it exceeds a certain time (around 1 minute). I was trying to use the DataReceived Event of the serial port, but I need to wait for a response before continuing and DataReceived fires on its own thread.If there is a way to abort the thread, I was thinking of doing a timer control.

I'm developing an app for WP7 and Win7 that will get info extracted directly from particular websites. The app will download the HTML source and parse through it to find the required strings. The strings may not have tags. note multiple instances of the string needs to be found. I've tried a few very rudimentary ways, and although they work, they are extremely slow.

I am using this code bellow to read each line of a file doing stuff then repeat to the end in a while loop. My problem starts after that since I have to exit this loop then go back to it and start the process all over again 100+ times and I cant go back in since it knows I hit "Nothing" or EOF. Is there a way to do this without opening and closing the record 100+ times??

I have to generate an XML file from several database tables. I could use the WriteXml method of the DataSet to do it, but the database tables are really huge and I can't add all those tables in the DataSet at the same time or it may cause a problem because of the big amount of memory used. Then I decided to use the DataTable's WriteXml method and save table after table, but the the generated file only stores the information of the last DataTable.WriteXml's call. How can I preserve the previous XML data when adding all that information?

The end of the text document my application is reading is denoted by a character that I cant identify, copy or paste. I attached an image of it so you can see. I have no control over the formatting of the document so I can't change the character. During debugging it shows the same character as shown in the picture, but if I hit the little tack next to where the variable shows then it changes to "f". However, if I try to see if the variable equals "f" it returns false.

I am reading a text file in which has three colums of information i.e.
00100 25690 21586
23510 25694 24856
25896 45478 52897
58745 59687 12364
I want to read the whole file, and split the colums so each set of numbers is put into an array to be used as an input for later. If the text file only contains one line of numbers like 00100 25690 21586, I have written a code to seperate those and put them into an array which is attached. If the text file contains more than one row of numbers I can read the whole file in line by line but I can't get the strings seperated.

I am trying to write login page code for the login button but can't find how to find a string in a .txt file. The only code I have managed to find on the subject is opening up the text file with the
FileOpen(1, "File location", OpenMode.Output) code, but even this would be best removed as it would open the text file containing all usernames and passwords within the file.I need the system to search for a specific string within a file ( Usernames___Passwords.txt (159bytes)Number of downloads: 134), and with that string find the password associated with it (in my attached example the letters/words after the apostrophe) but stopping at the end of the line.

I'll start off by saying I am using Visual Studio 2008 Standard. I am creating a program that will open installed programs using short code. For instance, if a user types in 'npp' then Notepad++ opens. I have it working just fine to respond to the predefined commands, but I would like to expand it so that the user can define their own settings simply by typing the program directory and the custom short code they want: Example: If I am an end user and would like to say define a short code for Windows Media Player, I would simply type the following: (Assuming Excel or likewise is used to open the csv file).

All I am doing is reading each txt file I find in a directory and finding certain strings in the text then counting how many I find in each file and then once each file has its separate counts it send it to a sql database. I have most of it done, but I cant seem to get the count to separate each file so my problem now is that it counts the first file but when it counts the next file it adds to the first file and so on through all the files

I am trying to parse a very large text file for certain strings. The text file is part of a level-making software for an old game I play. The text file basically contains all the information the level designer software needs, but the only important bit is the 'texture information'. Basically what I'm trying to create is a little program that parses the text files and shows the user a list of every texture in that text file. The problem is, the strings denoting textures are not really easy to find, and I can't think of any sensible and fast way to get them...

I have a text file 'source'. I want to skip 4 lines then grab the 17th through 33rd characters and assign them to a variable. Then drop down to the 9th line and grab the 10th through the 19th character and assign them to a variable. Then skip to the 27th line and write each line to another file with these two variables appended to the end of each line. I can write the lines to another file easy enough but I'm not sure about skipping around from line to line or grabbing the variables.

Would it be possible to convert strings to ASCII and subtract a number from each at the source, then add a number at the receiving end? I am sending messages on a LAN network (hopefully) and I know the packets may be monitored so I want to make sure they at least can't be read just by opening the data, something simple will do.
