So I am trying to learn vb.net and am a beginner. I find alot of online tutorials, but have yet to find one where I can follow what I'm attemping to do, just bits and pieces. I want to keep the code basic until I learn more, and in this case use two - one dimenstion arrays. I built a program to write Employee Names and Wages to a txt file.ie.
Jack Black vbtab 60000
Nick Mole vbtab 45000
and so on
I want to bring back that data and place the name and the and wage each into an array so I can calculate different criteria when I hit a search button. I will not know how many names and wages will be written to txt file. I am having trouble understanding exactly how to do this as all the examples I've found list only one array or the txt file is line by line like.
Jack Black
60000
Nick Mole

Everything else I've found is over myhead so far.Here is my code so far if anyone can let me know where I'm going wrong. I have one error that tells me "property chars is read only". I have no idea what that means, even after reading up on it really...and I'm not sure if the rest of the code I've wrote is 100% anyway I assure you that I've spent more than a few hours trying to solve this myself.

specifically reading from a text file, and placing that into an array.
But the problem is, that in each line of the text file, I have at least three different separators.
Sample:
14~8|3~7|16~5|7~4|1~2|3~1|_17
12~12|5~10|2~8|5~7|_0
etc.

So, what I want to do, is read each line of the text file into a separate item into an array, and each item in that array is a record of another array(of terms) and a single(constant).
I've already got SOME code, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to work, and I don't know much about reading from text files and string manipulation in the first place.

I'm sort of new to VB and have to use it for my Software Design & Development Major Project.I'm making a blackJack game, and i the names of all users in a file called "CurrentUserNames.txt".I'm struggling to get VB to read this file (items are line by line not separated by a comma or something) and then save it into an array called CurrentUsers(). This array is then displayed in a listbox called "lstAllUsers".I can get VB to read the file and put the FIRST item in the file into the FIRST line of the list box, or i can get VB to put ALL the items in the file into the listbox, separated by the little [] squares when the program runs e.g listbox, line 1 says - "Current [][] Names".[code]

I have a text file, with several lines of comma delimited data. The easy part is that each item fits into the same field, so I can use a 2 dimensional array. I would like to use .net classes to do this, not the old file handling functions I was used to.How can I take the text file and load the data in the text file into a 2 dimensional array.Here is example data in test.txt
1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,1,3,3,3,4,4
2,3,4,5,1,1,1,2,3,4,5,1,1,1
2,3,4,5,6,1,1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4
So this would go into a (14,3) array.I would like to make sure, that the array is automatically sized to the size of the data also.

I am writing an app to be a single button failover of a set of mirrored SQL servers. The app has to handle several other functions (enable/disable and start/stop of services, writing to local registry, copying files from server A to server B, initiating stored procedures, etc.)I have a collection of labels that indicate the status of 4 services on 2 servers, I wrote a function to check the services when passed the machine name, and the service name. Originally I just called the function 8 times (4 services, 2 machines) and populated the labels 'manually'. I have all of this within a timer so that the service status is refreshed every couple seconds. Id like to clean up the code to a single for/next loop that operates on 2 arrays (an array of service names, and an array of labels) such as:
'**Fetch_Status is the function that gets service status, it accepts 2 strings, machine name
'**and service name and returns status "running", "Stopped", as my_status
Dim Services() As String = {"Service1", "Service2", "Service3", etc.}
[code]....
The only reason I want the control array is to be able to use the .Text and .BackColor properties of the labels in the loop. If I make an array of strings with the label names it doesnt seem to pick that up.
I want to reading in a excel file and extract the sCodenumber sDescription ans the sStatus and store them in a array : StatusComposeArray(5200) As MyCompose.
