Basically, I have a quiz program for which It would be much simpler for me If i could pull the strings for the correct questions to display and answer to test if i could pull them from excel. For example,
vb If qststrng = (excel document cell A1) and answrstrng = (excel document cell B1) Then
'Correct End if
Or maybe there's something much simpler already integrated into Visual Studios 2010 in which i can copy and paste my excel data and then pull the data in a similar way all within Visual Studios?

After reading the file, I want to load the NameId, the ColourId and the Text into a multidimensional array. Anything I have found about loading into an array shows text being separated by small delimiters like commas, but this I cannot do because I need to use this format. What I am wanting to do is load all of the NameId's into a listbox and when a certain NameId is selected, it will bring up the Text in a TextBox and the Colour value in a ComboBox.
if i have a text file that reads
gsf
hot
dmg
bp
comp
how can i pull it into an array and if the textbox = any of the lines then execute event something like this
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If Me.textbox1.text = (textfile contents) then
timer1.interval = 500

im just not sure on how to initiate the calling of the text file into an array.or if i could call lines from a richtextbox and if textbox1.text = a line in the rtb then execute. I guess what ever would be simpler.
I am having trouble with this list box assignment. I am supposed to pull the information from a text file in the debug folder. The problem is the code looks perfect to me, but when I debug, the first line that starts with : lstSummary.items.add returns as being in the wrong format. The code is below.
Private Sub btnSummary_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSummary.Click

Anyway, I'm a teacher and am writing a program that simply shows kids a word on a flashcard. There are 2 buttons, 1 to read the word and 1 to go to a new work. There are going to be 300 words. Really I'm just testing it right here. What I want to know is should I be inputting all the words right into the code like I did with "hi" and "not 1" (Don't ask. those are just the 2 random words I picked to test this out with). OR is there a better way (maybe somehow to type all the words on a text file and have the program randomly pull one of them (I don't know how to do this).
Here is the code so far:
Public Class Form1
Dim word
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

View 5 RepliesI want to search a string (which contains html source of webpage)and get all text that strinh holds, like:
TC83886783380753647814458

so, i want to find all text that is located in code between "serviceid=" and "&" (example how it would look in html source/in string: serviceid=TC27072318654272127623234&)
so the result would be only text in that format (starting with TC and 23 numbers following it)
I think i could do it by parsing a string somehow

(This is just an example code, not that it works =D)What this should do is actually search for do, while, if, return, true and put [color=blue] before it and after it [/color] and leave the rest just alone.
far it works! But it work's too well. What I'm trying to do is insert a string of text at a certain index position of a text file, underneath a certain line of text. So far I have:
'Controls Var 16
If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
If Mytempstring.Contains("zrandomtextz=0") = True Then
Mytempstring = Mytempstring.Replace("zrandomtextz=0", "zrandomtextz=1")
ElseIf Mytempstring.Contains("zrandomtextz=") = False Then
[Code]...
It's inserting the text, but it's inserting it at every line of text in the file. So instead of one instance of "zrandomtextz" underneath "xinserttextx" I get "zrandomtextz" before every single line in the file. Can someone please help me as this has been an issue for months now? Edit: There are quite a few lines above this one, as in 50-150, so I removed all of the above section, however I can assure you that whenever it is simply replacing then writing to file it works flawlessly, it's only now that I'm having problems and this is when I try to insert new stuff under stuff.

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.
I'm trying to build an app that would search a text file for a string entered by the user, and delete the line of text containing that string. Here's the code I have. The code works, but since I'm relatively new to VB and programming as a whole, I was wondering if there's a better method out there. he strFilePath is handled by the openfilediaglog
Dim strSearch As String = Replace(MaskedTextBox1.Text, "-", "")
Dim strLine As String = Nothing
Dim strAllText As String = Nothing

In a text file I have users add a folder using the folderbrowserdialog users then push add which appends the text with lets say they selected downloads
Downloadsname=Downloads
downloadspath=C:documents and settingsJamesDesktop
how can I make it so that when they push a button it seraches for downloadsname then after the = is the text to use as a string and do the same with downloadspath
Is there any possibility to make this true?I mean we can't use { } as a normal text in String.Format()

I have to find a string in a huge text file ( ~ 50MB) and then replace it.Since it's quite huge I tend to open the file and then read line by line, and then replace the necessary line(s) (rather than "readall" the file of course).My question is how to replace the whole line?Let's say I found the line that should be replaced . I know I can create a copy file and copy all lines into there ... but I'd prefer to replace the line in the original file rather than creating a copy instance.
View 5 RepliesWell I basically know how to read a text file, replace text then write to one. how to append text after a specified string (ie, insert text at a specified line, removing the text after a string in a line and changing it without altering other lines, etc). Can someone please tell me how I would go about adding a string after a certain string in a text file? For example:
I Have:
test
example
hello

Is it possible to declare a variable using the text of, lets say a string, as the name?If u dont get it im looking for something like;Dim Var + string1 As PictureBox..In the code "Var" is the start of the name and "string1" is the end of it so if string1 was "Hello", the picturebox would have been named VarHello.
