May 26, 2009I want to read 4 lines OR 400 chars from the end of a log file.The log file will be huge so im seaching a way to not read the whole file into the memory.
vb.net
Dim filel As Long = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo(logfile).Length
Dim buf(400) As Char
Dim fs As New IO.StreamReader(logfile)
fs.Read(buf, filel - 400, 400)
I've also tried with FileStream but i keep getting this error:"Offset and length were out of bounds for the array or count is greater than the number of elements from index to the end of the source collection."But why doesn't it work with filel - 400 as index? It works if i just switch it with 0?

Jul 2, 2009I am learning Visual Basic and I have learned alot of it from the learning section included in Visual Basic Express Edition 2008 but I don't think I have learned alot. I am actually trying to make an extractor and importer for a game. I have the file called Frontened.MNG and I want to make a program that can open the file. Someone else had made the rxtractor but he doesn't have it now. The Frontened.MNG file contains bunch of .DDS files and I want to view them in the program and then be able to replace the .DDS files in the >MNG file and be able to Extract the files out of the .MNG file. I don't just want anyone to do it for me but teach me how to do it step by step. First I want to know is how to view the .MNG file in VB? It should be viewed in a listbox but I don't know how to read this file in VB. I know how to read a text file but I think this is a binary file and it is viewed differently.
View 6 RepliesVS 2008 Read A Txt File After Commas?
May 22, 2009I want to read a text file that has multiple lines and commas on every line, every comma represents a value, like an integer or boolean. here is an example
50, 100, 50, 50, True, "C:WINDOWSWhatever.jpg"
I want to read each individual line from the text file and read the values after the comma's.
So the first value would be a picturebox height, the value after the second comma would be the width, the value after the third would be the top, after that the left, and then stretch image, and the location of the image. How could I do this?
Here is a simpler version.
Height, Width, Top, Left, Stretch?, ImageLocation

Feb 13, 2010I'm making a program in C#, but I want to test out part of the program I'm going to integrate into it in VB, and what I want to do is divide a file into sections. The files range from 60mb to around 180mb, and I know that it is really hard to open files of that size, so for my app I want it to divide the file into smaller sections and put files in a folder temporarily so It could just read them from there. And I want to break it down to about, 5-10mb per file.

[2008] Slowly Read A Txt File?
Jan 18, 2009i have a .txt file containing 27,607 words, 1 per line, and i need my program to slowly read through and put it into a textbox/label. It only needs to read in order, not randomly or anything. It needs 2 be slow enough that I can read every word being shown, and if possible it would be nice to be able to change the speed but it is not needed.
Public Class Form1
Dim FILE_NAME As String = "C:My DocumentsWordList.txt"
Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(FILE_NAME)
[code]....
This is what i tried and all this does is displays 2 words in the middle of the file, then form goes white for about 5 seconds and then the last word in the file shows up and the program remains white. When i try with a txtbox only the last word is displayed.

VS 2008 - Read The Unicode Text From A Binary File
Jun 3, 2011I ran across my first unicode data, and I am not sure what to do with it. I read the unicode text from a binary file using the ReadBytes method, because ReadChars threw an exception when it tried it. Well, long story short, I have found a way to work with the data, I can convert it using a small Function I wrote, which goes something like this: [Code] And this works wonderfully. It just throws away anything not in the ASCII range, including the BOM at the start of the unicode data.
But I would guess that this method is not very universal and probably not the best way. Are there any VB functions available to do this sort of thing? I was able to find something called Text.Encoding, but there didn't seem to be a reverse of that not that I found anyhow. Any ideas?

VS 2008 Class And Read A Line From A File And Add It Into A Listbox
Sep 12, 2009I am trying to read a line from a file and add it into a listbox. The SelectedIndexChanged event of the listbox places the selected item (hence, the item I added from the file) into a variable that is declared as a Store (my own personal class.) I can easily add the line from the file into the listbox, but I run into a problem with the SelectedIndexChanged event. When I click on the item in the listbox, I get an error that says "Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'WindowsApplication1.Store'." (I guess this is because I added an item to the listbox that is from a file.) I tried a variety of methods of casting, but nothing seems to work. What can I do to fix this?
