I have a text file that I'm reading into a listbox. I want to skip a line if it's blank. The following code works if I leave out the check for the line being blank. It puts the file in the listbox with no errors. However, when I include the If statement that checks for the line being blank, I get an ArgumentNullException in the Items.Add line when It gets to the end of the file.

All I would like to do is remove one character from the line of the text file that I am reading, which is the first character and also prevent the program from crashing if no text file is present.Here is the code. Can anyone notice where I am going wrong? I thought the "if" statement would cover the crash but it didn't. Clueless, but sort of have an idea on the character removal.

View 2 RepliesFor removing trailing part is I use the code
str.substring(0,str.length -2)
Is there a better way? I especially dislike using str.length.
Edit I wanted the question to be as short and simple as possible and I supposed that I just overlooked some String method. I try to be more precise.
I need to remove given number of characters from the end of a string. I don't want to care what the characters are and I don't want to introduce a risk of removing more characters.
If the number is larger then string length let's there is an exception (the string should be validated earlier).
I don't have the problem especially with length, but with referencing a variable twice (imagine a function instead of a variable). I also don't like necessity of subtraction but it is only a personal preference.
The question is taged vb.net so there is vb.net code (should be in a module):
<System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension> _
Public Shared Function RemoveFromEnd(stringValue As String, removedCharacters As Integer) As String
Return stringValue.Substring(0, stringValue.Length - removedCharacters)
End Function
My program is bringing in a list of part numbers into a combobox and the items in the combo box have "L:" in front of the part number and I want to get rid of the first 3 characters but am getting a message that says the remove function is not a part of the combo box class.

When I go to webcrawler.com and search for something, then look at the source code, a chunk of HTML similar to this displays the search results:
<div id="webResults">
<div class="searchResult webResult">
<a class="resultTitle" data-icl-coi="540" data-icl-cop="results-main" href=[website] target="_blank">[title]</a>

But when I use WebClient.DownloadString to read the source code to a textbox, I only get this:
<div id="webResults">
</div>
There's nothing. All of the webresults have been removed.How come I can view the code in my internet browser but not on my application?? I even used an InStr method to confirm that the results weren't contained in the generated code.
I have two text files. The fields in each text file are separated by a space (" "). Some of the fields in column 1 of file 1 match the fields in column 1 of file 2. However the third column in file 2 is a numeric field. What I wish to do is check every field in file1 against the field in file 2, and if the number is 1 then remove the row from file 2, if the number is > 1, then subtract one from it.
I have the following coding so far.
Dim lines1 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File1"))
Dim lines2 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File2"))
Dim values As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)()
