I'm entering 123 into a field and getting 231.It's because I'm formating the text as I change it.
Private Sub txtObject_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtObject.TextChanged txtObject.Text = Format(Val(txtObject.Text), Zformat)
End Sub zformat is "0.0"
Initially the field is "0.0". If I highlight it and type "1" I get "1.0" the cursor is now in front of the "1",I then type "2" and get "21.0" and the cursor is in front of the "1",I then type "3" and get "231.0".
It is because the cursor is in the "wrong" position.Is there a simple way to fix this?
I got an email I just created using Outlook automation and I need some help to get it formated nicely:set Font of the body set font-style to bold of certain words insert a picture into the body (this is not an attachment) when putting text in the body using VB.net looks like outlook automatically adds spaces for each "paragraph", how can I get rid of these spaces? how can I get my signature on because it disappears when text is added to the body [Code]
View 11 RepliesI am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

Basically all I need is my program to write a character(Ex: "1") in a certain position specified by me in a line in a textbox.
So so far my code is:
Dim sw As IO.StreamWriter = IO.File.AppendText("101.txt")
sw.Write()
And all i need to know is how i pick the position that the .write function writes.
I have this code to send all line of a txt file to a listbox (StreamReader).

Basically this is a function I call during the program booting and it creates the necessary directory and also the LOGIN.CYS file empty... then later data can be added.My issue is that it keeps adding a line to the .cys (which is a .txt file) but I just want VB to create a plain text file with no content inside...
I'm creating a text file and, among other things, I need to write the text of the parent and child nodes of a TreeView to the file. I know how to write the contents and read them just fine, but what I can't seem to figure out is how to write the contents if I don't know how many parent nodes or child nodes there are. When I do, I usually do the following:

When there's no file path in the streamwriter constructor does anyone know the location the file gets output to?
Dim sw as StreamWriter = new Streamwriter("test.txt")sw.close
I am coming across a lot of odd and annoying problems in this program and have almost had enough lol.
I cannot figure this one out for the life of me. I have used streamwriter a hell of alot of times and never once experienced this. But basically I have a string array and I need to write the entire array to a text file with a new line for each array item. So I have gone ahead and done this:
[Code]...
However the outcome is the text file only contains 1 line and that line is the last item in the array yet I know the array has got at least 50 items in it.
Okay, this actually relates to some work I'm doing that I already have something in place. So if a change is necessary down the road, I'm in no hurry... But I did a dangerous thing and began reading. As I began reading about ways to stream file data, I became curious as to when it is a good idea to one method or the other.

I am using the Streamwriter to send simple messages to other machines in my office. But i hit across a problem today which i never thought about. If the computer im sending the message to, doesn't have the listener running, the sender crashes out. Is there anyway to trap the error, and deal with it nicely (i.e a message box) instead of the app quiting?
View 3 RepliesI'm getting a problem when writing text files using StreamWriter. The files read fine and they write fine if I'm not overwriting an existing file. They also write ok as long as I'm not writing over a file that only has one digit at the end of the name. For some reason when there are 2 digits at the end it crashes when I'm trying to save over an already existing text file. Here's my code.
StringForTextFile = "C:" & Folder4PS & "" & IDCodewDashOrN & "Series" & Series & "ScreenNumber" & ScreenNumber & ".txt"
LblTesting.Visible = True ' Testing
LblTesting.Text = "StringForTextFile = " & StringForTextFile
[code]....
above but 've tried all the different Encoding possibilites. Unicode, UTF32, UTF8, UTF7 as well as without those parameters listed where the close parentheses is right after StringForTextFile. I get the same result. If I'm writing a new text file that doesn't exist, then no problem or if I'm writing over an existing text file but it has 0 to 9 at the end then I'm ok but if I'm writing over an existing file and there is 10 or above(haven't tried triple digits or all values) then my application crashes. You see the test label in the code above because I was looking at exactly what file it was trying to overwrite and it is just as it should be.
Should I be using a different procedure? An example of a string that would cause a crash for the string StringForTextFile would be:
C:Name of My AppSeries1ScreenNumber10.txt
If it was being written for the first time then no problem or if the 10 at the end was 0 to 9 then no problem also. I've also tried and originally had it set up where there wasn't an If File.Exists(StringForTextFile) = True Then statement. It just always used the same code whether writing or overwriting and I wasn't having a problem that I remember. For some reason I started having a problem recently and I put the alternate methods of writing in.
I have a problem with an application I have written. To keep it simple, it does heavy math calculations. If the results meet a specific criteria, it is written to a text file on a line-line-basis.The problems is, if I go look at the data files, I will find non-numeric symbols mixed in with the numbers. Sometimes it is a question mark, "?". Other times, it is control or extended characters that Notepad or Wordpad cannot display. They can be mixed into the numbers, like so: 215x7 or 8948x, where "x" is the odd character. I thought the problem may have been my use of "DataFile.Flush". I removed that, but still have the corruption.
Below are my declarations and code fragments:
Dim Number as ULong
Dim DataFile As System.IO.StreamWriter
DataFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter(FilePath & fName, False)
DataFile.WriteLine(Number)
The first time I had a problem, I thought it was my use of "Cstr()" in the WriteLine statement, with "Flush" as I stated above.I do not know if this is a situation internal to VB2008, or external, like hard drive buffers writing.

View 1 RepliesI have a datagridview and need to do some formatting to it. On load the row 0 column 0 cell is highlighted. I need users to click on datagridview to select a value. The issue is with the initial load highlight it looks like the first row is already selected when in fact it is now. How can this highlight be disabled? Each row of has 7 cell, the user is able to select any of the cell of a row and the corresponding row ID is selected. The issue is that only that one cell is highlighted.
I would like the entire row highlighted regardless of what cell in that row is clicked on. One of the columns is a status value. I would like to color the text based on the value. For example if the Status is opened I want the text to be red, if the status is closed the text color should be default.

Have a bit of code ported from VB6 to VB.NET. It uses Write and WriteLine all the way to produce output files.
Now, I need to compare outputs from original and ported code, but there's one tiny problem with number formatting. For instance whereas VB6 code Writes just .5, the VB.NET code produces 0.5, instead of .0005 (in original) it writes 5E-4, etc.
How can I make VB.NET's Write to write numbers in the same format as VB6? The option of refactoring writing code to include formatting step is not acceptable.
Have a column of dates which i need to compare to a specific time of the year, which establishes what calculation needs to be applyed then depending on the outcome apply conditional formating to highlight an adjcent cell, but need to remove the YY element as the contents spans multiple years.

if the date in A1 is between 15th Mar & 15th Oct use -17
if the date in A1 is between 16th Oct & 31st Dec use -8
