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)
View 39 RepliesI have a simple windows form application (I'm working in Visual Basic Express 2008).
There are some forms that have simple text boxes. When somebody wants to edit something in this boxes he pushes edit button and then they are enabled. I insert some text and when I save this text is saved for good.
When I reopen the application this text is there like I want it to be. Just for information, this text is always the same in one text box, until I change it (me or some other user) - so I think there is no need for databases. For my needs this is ok because I don't need to change this data often. This is code in Form load event (for calling back the data)

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
