I would like to ask. I have saving to a text file down now with multiple lines and it works.
How do i open this text file into a label.I know about open file dialog which is the same as savefiledialog.
So how do i open the text file and display the text in a label with multiple lines using the one click of a button and a open file window thingy.Does anyone have code that could me with this.
how to permanently save to text files then re-open all of the information again using SFD and OFD. Now my teacher has come back at me and said that i need to be able to save the information from multiple text boxes and have the text in certain labels to also be saved into the one text file (the labels need to be done because it is a database and these labels are like the fields and the right text box needs to match the right label)

visual basic 2008
I am pretty good with visual basic and visual studio, but the one problem I have is saving... I am currently creating a game, and it has a lot of variables, I want o be able to save all those variables to a text file and then re-open it later. When it is open, i want the variables to have the original value from the text document.
To sum it up: I need variables to be saved in a text file, and then be able to open the text file back and have the variables have the proper values from the text file.
I have been searching around google, and I found ideas, but I have no idea how to use them. Like using XML or saving a table with " TextFile.WriteFromTable" "TextFile.ReadToTable" but I don't exactly get how to use those (the posts weren't too clear)
Basically iv got a form, and the fields are
"Full Name":
"Amount Contributed in �":
below the form i have a button that saves the data to a text file called 'mailinglist.txt'
So i enter the data into the fields and click the button like as follows:
Full Name: John Smith
Amount Contribted in �: 40
However..... when i go view the text file it displays John smith40, which i want a space between the name and the numeral.
Also as i want a maximum of 5 people added to the mailing list, i would like a function that lets me somehow "adds" an extra 4 people to the text file without overwriting the 1st name, and uses the same "current" form displayed to the user.
Here is the code as follows:
Public Class Form2
Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox2.TextChanged

View 14 RepliesI am using about 5 different filesystemwatcher routines total. I am using the following
filewatch.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.CreationTime Or NotifyFilters.LastWrite
AddHandler filewatch.Created, AddressOf addfile
AddHandler filewatch.Changed, AddressOf addfile
filewatch.EnableRaisingEvents = True
However, there is one problem with it... whenever I open a file and change stuff, then close it without saving the changes, the events still fire. I am opening excel workbooks in code, then use xlsWB.Close(SaveChanges:=False) to close them, and the event still fires, where the file isn't really changed so it should not fire.

View 4 RepliesI saved a file with the extension .doc. I use the RichText to write and save the text. I did not set any encoding type when I saved it. When I tried to open the file in the Richtextbox again, I got all the formatting characters in the RTF file. How do I correct this? How do I open and re-open a .doc file in the Rich Text box control without the formatting showing up in the box with the document contents?
View 4 RepliesI have an asp page with vb.net code that will query a database and present the user with the number of records that exist that need to be exported along with a button to export them. After you push the export button, it will prompt for a location and filename. But after that, it will not refresh the page with the new counts that now exist. Or in this case update the count to zero for the button they clicked.
[Code]
So how can I tell the page to refresh with the new counts. It almost seems like I need to tell the process to wait until after the user has finished finding the location and saving the file but I don't want to add a generic threading.thread.sleep in, I want it to only wait until they are done and then refresh the page.
