VS 2008 Text Lines To Affect Different Labels?

Apr 26, 2012

I am COMPLETELY new to Visual Basic except for a high school Computer Programming class and I'm attempting to make a text-based game via VB2008. There is a tough problem I'm having. I followed a few YouTube tutorials and managed to create something where you can press a button and have a window open where you search for a text file and have it's file path appear in a text box. My problem now is that I want certain lines of this text file to change the text of certain Labels on a different form. I don't know how to do this though?

VS 2008 - Saving To Text File Using Multiple Text Boxes And Labels

May 27, 2009

how to permanently save to text files then re-open all of the information again using SFD and OFD. Now my teacher has come back at me and said that i need to be able to save the information from multiple text boxes and have the text in certain labels to also be saved into the one text file (the labels need to be done because it is a database and these labels are like the fields and the right text box needs to match the right label)

Instruct VB To Save These Values In The Text Property Of The Labels So That The Next Time The Program Is Loaded The Labels?

Oct 21, 2008

I created a program that has serval labels on a form and a listview object. It has a button that when clicked reads a textfile and loads up values in the listview object. I then can click and drag text from the listview box to any label on the form and then the program removes the value from the listview box. Now, my question is how can I instruct VB to save these values in the text property of the labels so that the next time the program is loaded the labels will contain the values loaded during the last run time session?

VS 2008 - Create A Form With Radio Buttons - Text Boxes - Labels

Jun 22, 2009

I need to create a form with radio buttons, text boxes, labels, etc.. This information needs to be pulled from a database. For instance, I have a form that displays information that needs to be inputed to a database, based on what test is being done for a specific product. Each product requires different tests. So each product may or may not have the same information that needs to be inputed..

What I have done is made a database and filled a table with each product and what tests apply. I then call that database after the product has been selected for the tests. It will then fill an array for that products information for what texts boxes and labels need to be shown. I wanna take this further and have it create a form through code and align all the controls to specific spots so that it will look nice. For example I wouldn't wanna create a control and have it be cut out of the form, or have other controls overlapping others.

Get A Bunch Of Lines From A Text File (they Will Be Filenames Eventually) Which Are Split By New Lines And Puts Each One Into An Array?

Jun 22, 2010

I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..

Dim ary() As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:MenuFiles.txt") Then

[code]....

The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.

VB 2008 - How To Display 2 Text Lines In A Button

Jan 23, 2010

Simple question I couldn't find in the book or online. I have a Button which needs to have permanent text set to 'Calculate' and 'Section' on separate lines. The 'Multiline' option I have seen mentioned does not appear in my properties. I can't 'show the code' as I think it is a properties setting.

2008 Count Lines In Textbox With Multiple Lines Using Label To Display The Numbers?

Sep 3, 2009

how to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.

example:

1-pauljaones
2-tommyperrry
3-marktoms
4-Jonessmith
5-paulwhite

Obviously this is 5 lines and that's what I need to count.

Read Lines From Text File 1 And Delete Those Lines From Text File 2?

Sep 15, 2009

I have a text file containing lines of data (File 1). I need to delete all the lines in another text file (File 2), which are found in file 1.So I could read file 2 line by line. And then once the line has been read, read file 1 line by line to search for a match. But that's going to be painfully slow.Or I could read file 2 into memory. And then read file 1 line by line and REPLACE the lines in file 2 with nothing, therefore deleting them. File 2 could be 100 mb, so I'm not sure about reading it all into memory.

Getting The Text From Multiple Labels?

Apr 13, 2012

I am creating a program to simulate a tenpin bowling scoring system, and I'm using labels with the following name structure:Player1Frame1Ball1, Player1Frame1Ball2, etc.. I have following variables also: CurrentPlayer, CurrentFrame, CurrentBallI am hoping to use these variables to specify which label I would like to check the value of (the score achieved, placed in the label).

To test my experiments I have been trying to output the score of the first ball in the current frame in a msgbox, but to no success:
MsgBox("lblplayer" & currentplayer & "frame" & currentframe & "ball.text")
