1) Is it possible to input text into a .dll and then read it with some similar code.
Dim lines() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "
eadme.dll")
For Each line As String In lines
Msg(line)
2) categorys inside a dll.
For example if the "line" string equals to car then find the category black and display it's contains. I would like the .dll to all contain this information. Both the car and the category. All i want is the main .exe to read the information.
I am reading text from a file (*.TXT) 1 line at a time using streamreader. As I read that input, I am looking for specific starting and ending character strings ("<" and ">") . When I find those strings, I would like to select the characters between those string and have it set to BOLD and BLUE before appending that input line to the contents of a richtextbox.The only way I have found to do this is to first append the input line to the richtextbox then use the richtextbox.selection (color and font) methods to change the text.
My objective is to, instead of entering in the data manually into the text boxes, I want to read in a textfile. The Calculate button will contain the code to read in the file and assign it to the appropriate textboxes. Save the separate file in the \bin\Debug folder.
The text file just needs to have 3 integers on 3 separate lines.The code I posted works without and errors, but.I am having some trouble integrating the Stream Reader.

Can I set this function so that if the local settings.txt exists, it will NOT be overwritten unless the mapped file is newer?
If IO.File.Exists("C: empsettings.txt") = False Then IO.File.Copy("K: empsettings.txt", "C: empsettings.txt") ElseIf IO.File.Exists("C: empsettings.txt") = True Then
[Code]...
Currently modifying a program that is being used by several staff. Each time they restart it, it starts the latest build.
I have a settings.txt file that is needed for the latest build(not on all pc's yet, original version has the settings written in the code) and updated as needed.
If local PC doesn't have settings.txt, it is copied, if it does have settings.txt it gets overwritten by the mapped copy on each run.
Wanting to let users keep their 'personalized' local settings.txt, unless I add a new feature to the program that requires a change to the mapped settings.txt file.
how to do this for vb6 however i am using vb 2008 and the code for vb6 does not seem to work.
I have designed a form with a text box on it, and a command button underneath. The idea is to run this as a sort of stiky notes section.
I want the text box to read rich text into the textbox (C:\\stickynotes.rtf")
Then i have a command button underneath which i want to save the content of the rich text box to the rtf file (C:\\stickynotes.rtf). This is so that the user can edit and ammend information.
here is some code i have so far
Dim fileReader As System.IO.StreamReader fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader("C:\\stickynotes.rtf")

I'm using a barcode reader which emulates a keyboard with swedish layout. I'm using RegisterRawInputDevices to create a lowlevel hook, catching windows messages and checking which device that sent the keyboard input. If it's the barcodereader, I would like to store the input. I receive the key input one by one in this class - how do I translate this into a string? If the character to be sent is an #, then the keys sent are Shift+3.
After some thinking, I think I figured out how to read delimited text. I was just curious as to whether it'd be better to use StreamReader.ReadLine or File.ReadAllLine or if it matters at all? I'm assuming the ReadLine method would be better if I'm working with a larger file since ReadAllLine would store the entire thing in memory? Here's my code - I'm reading from a text file and displaying into a listview.
File.ReadAllLines Dim lines() As String Dim parts() As String lines = File.ReadAllLines("C:lah.txt") For Each line As String In lines parts = line.Split("|") [Code] .....
I 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.
i want to read the joystick input?is it somewhat like keyboard input?

I am trying to get my program to Read all the text from a txt document saved on my computer?
Dim fileReader As String fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText("C:Documents and SettingsOwnerMy DocumentsWord List")
What is going wrong is that when I try it it says that my access to that folder is denied for some reason. Also, how would I make it read each of the word in the file 1 at a time?
Before I start great forums, from what i've seen browsing unregistered this place is a treasure trove of information; however, after searching for what I need I could only find threads that seemed way to complicated or irrelevant, so...Essentialy I have created a program in which values entered are saved to seperate text files depending on which tab of a Tab Control they originate (from text boxes). I'm pretty new to VB but i managed to save the values of each text box to a .txt as CSV, essentialy all values will only ever be decimals (as currency) or dates. Example code for one of the .txt's:
I'm working on a way to authenticate users in my app, and what I've come up with is the following method.To write to a database, the user must have an account in SQL server 2008. However, I still want people to be able to view the application if they don't have access, but only read, they can't sync any changes. This is working well, as I have a string array hard coded containing approved users:
Dim Users() As String = {"BWANG", "EDASALLA", "ERICHARDSON", "HALONZO", "JCHAPMAN", "SKIM", "PMACK"}
The one problem with hardcoding is that if I need to ever add a user later on, I'd have to release an update to the program. (which isn't hard as I already have updating built into the app, and users can still download updates even if they can't sync.)
What I'd like to do, is use an encrypted .dat file that contains the user names, and store that with the application, so that i could always be added to, and only one file would need to be downloaded.
I have code in place to encrpt and decrypt the .dat file (called users.dat) and this code works for single text entries in the file. I need to figure out how to load a list however into the array in place.
Imports System Imports System.IO Dim userfile as String = "C:users.dat" Dim Users() As String = Data.Decrypt(File.ReadAllLines(path))
Basically each line in the file will have an encrypted user name, and i want it to decrypt each line and store it back into that authorized user list.
Is it possible to read a label's text property of another app?I know how to get the handle of the main window, and i got the code for the child.But the problem is that there's like 20 other labels on the window and when i use winID to get it's class, it's just "Edit", and it's the same for all the labels. And the title is the value of the labels text property.
