check how to remove the extra char in listbox "[]" like this
Basically, I want to be able to write all listbox items names to textfiles names, so if I have the following listbox items:
dog
cat
catdog was a good show
1 3 4 4 6
I want them to be all textfiles. NOT make a textfile then have that text in them, i want to make individual textfiles for each item.
I have a 4 listboxes, all 4 listboxes will be populated after I clicked the cmd_button. I need to have the items on all 4 listboxes written to a text (or preferably rtf file if possible)
[Code]....
I've got the following txt file:
[code]...
Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:
[code]...
Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...
My questions are:
1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns
2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )
Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)
So I feel like im pretty close, but I also have a feeling I am mixing up StreamReader and ReadAllLines[code]...
View 1 Replies I am starting to learn reading and writing to textfiles. One quick problem. My code here
'Read is the variable that will read the kp.txt file"
Dim read As IO.StreamReader
read = IO.File.OpenText("C:2/kp.txt"[code].....
however when it is read into the listbox those 3 words appear on one line in listbox
How can i make it so that each line of the textfile is placed in each line on the listbox?
I have an accdb named base.accdb in the root folder of the program. Basically I have several tables in my database and I need to show their values in listboxes (essentially allowing menus to be edited by adding/removing items in the table)I can't figure out how to connect the database (according to my friends/classmates), and i can't figure out how to pull the information from the table.
Ultimately, it would be nice if someone could tell me how I can pull out the information into maybe an array? so that if i add 3 items into the table, then it will create 3 variables in the program and put the values from the table into those variables.
how would i go about changing this code to use a listbox and not this path to file.("C:TestText.txt")
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I'm trying to figure out how to load a textfile into a listbox. On button click it would pop up a window where you'd browse to the folder and file and then select it and it would populate the listbox.[code]...
View 1 RepliesIt may seem noobish but, I've been try forever! I've been postponing a database project for like 3 years and I finally come to some solutions except for when it deletes an Item from the list. On form load, the listbox generates data from a text file (we'll call text1) which has data in it. For every line of data in that text file (text1), there is a text file (text2) in a 2nd folder.
For example, there may be, in text1, a line named "Hi". In the 2nd folder there is a text file named "hi.txt" Another line (say the next line under 'Hi') is written as "Hello world", there will be a file in the second folder called hello world.txt"
May seem confusing but it works well. My problem is making that 1st text file that has ALL of the data that loads into the listbox, be rewritten over with the new data in the listbox OR remove a certain line of from the text file.
I have a listbox and i populate it with data in my code like this on the page load....

So say one item in the list is displayed Ted Jones (123) and its valuefield should be 123. Im just not understanding what i am doing wrong here.
I'm trying to place the contents of a text file (just a list of names) into a list box when the form loads.
My code currently looks like this:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code].....
I can get the names into the list box, but they're all on one line. I thought about using a For...Next loop to read the contents of the text file, but I got into all sorts of trouble; do I need an array with that method? So I've got back to the code I originally had.

View 2 RepliesI can retreive all items in my notepad but when I am adding them up in my listbox, and trying to print them in the console. I can only display two strings. I don't know why. My string is a combination of a name, space & score. ex: "luke 300". That is the pattern of all strings per line in my text file. I am separating the name and the score using space as the indicator. When ever a space is found, string before and after the space is retrieved and added to the listbox
Here is my
scorelist = New ArrayList
reader1 = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "scores.txt")
[Code].....
This saves but first erases the old text.my code is like this[code]...

View 2 RepliesI have a Report I created with Visual Studio's VB.Net ( I guess this makes my report embedded), which I can select a date range like starting and ending date but the drop-down listbox for the Name is empty and I have to type a name into it to work. I need to be able to choose the name because I won't know who is on the list.
View 1 RepliesI've given up on my harder stuff and have simplified it to something else. There are no errors that pop up now but the list box doesn't populate! I took the code from a book and there's a data adapter, data connection, and data set on the form already (they're not named in this code though, since the book didn't say to). When the program opens, the list box has a line of text in it and the list box doesn't fill with the right items.
Private Sub EditStock_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Try
Dim dsitemlist As New DataSet
Dim itemlistadapter As New OleDbDataAdapter _

I come from Access and I am developing now my first windows form app in visual basic 2010 based on a Access database *.mdb. The thing is i have an access db with 5 tables. I have created the forms, connected to the database, all is working great. Parent- child relations are working, datagrids and comboboxes populate the right way, buttons are working.
But now I want to populate listbox, and combox from tables with queries. Like in access I would like, for example to populate two different listboxes bound to the same table with different queries, so that the listboxes give different results, based on different variables or textboxes.
But I don't know how to attack the problem: the query works against the tableadapter, so the info it gives back is always the same. I have tried to duplicate the tableadapter of the table i want to query, writing different sql queries in both, but it does not seem to work. I don't know in what direction I should ivestigate: LINQ, sql queriess, coded queries, filtering the listbox...

I'm trying to populate a listbox with every file that was last accessed more than a year ago but I've hit a snag, i cannot get the fileinfo for some files because the path is too deep, is there a way round this

Dim fileName As String
Dim accesstime As Date

The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
I can get a single column but how do I get 2?

I'm doing a win form application in visual studio 2008 and using 7 listboxes where my sql query will populate all customer from customertable. It's 7 cause it's one for each day, my problem is to get customerid when I select one of the customers from any of the listboxes to my textbox. Since there are 7 listboxes I can't use "data bound item" function, in that case it would be easy to write code like this: textbox1.text = listbox1.selectedvalue.tostring(

I am trying to populate an array from a listbox.My listbox items contain something like this:
1 for January
10 for February
3 for March
I have code in place and it was working, but I am taking the first character of the listbox item to populate the array. If the value of the listbox is 10 for February, I need to get 10, not just 1. Can I do something with the string that says I want to trim everything from the space to the end? Since they are all formatted the same way, if I could trim out anything from the space on, that would work.
Here's what I currently have:
ReDim m_adecRainfall(m_astrMonths.Length - 1)
For intCount = 0 To m_astrMonths.Length - 1
m_adecRainfall(intCount) = CDec(lstMontlyRainfall.Items(intStart).ToString.Su bstring(0, 1))
intStart += 1

I'm trying to get a listbox to populate a list of processes that are neither running nor in the "blocked" list. This code is in a timer, so it also checks if the process is already in the list.
For Each proc In Process.GetProcesses
Dim allowed As Boolean = True
For Each item In Blked.Items
[Code]....
It is strange because this is populating the list, but adding the same process over and over again, even though I seem to have the checks in there.
Here's my code, all it does is display the numbers 1 - 10. I want it to display the numbers from the column Sales, from the table Songs.
