VS 2010 Finding A Line Of String?
Sep 18, 2010
I loaded a text file to a text box, and I want the program to find a certain line containing only the strings I specify. But the text file will likely contain many of them, so I want it to pause scanning at the first line I'm looking for until I tell it to continue, then the second line, and so on. So the questions are:
1. What's the method for finding the exact line I want in a text file?
2. How do you start, pause, and resume scanning a text file line by line?

I'm obtaining data from a StreamReader.My StreamReader is called "reader" and I'm reading the stream with "responseOutput" like this "responseOutput = reader.ReadToEnd()" And in that bunch of text that I receive I want to FIND and EXTRACT a piece of text and then STORE that extraction in a variable of String type.Here is part of the code I'm referring to:
Dim response = request.GetResponse
Dim responseOutput As String
Dim reader As StreamReader
reader = New StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())
responseOutput = reader.ReadToEnd()
And here is the text or data that I'm receiving (what I'm about to show you is the result of a "MessageBox.Show(responseOutput)":
<TweetPhotoResponse xmlns="http://tweetphotoapi.com" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><Large>http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c54092/x2_7e143b</Large><MediaId>7e143b</MediaId><MediaUrl>http://tweetphoto.com/8262715</MediaUrl><Medium>http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c54102/x2_7e143b</Medium><Original>http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c61132/x2_7e143b</Original><PhotoId>8262715</PhotoId><SessionKeyResponse/><Status>OK</Status><Thumbnail>http://cdn.cloudfiles.mosso.com/c54112/x2_7e143b</Thumbnail><UserId>2268670</UserId></TweetPhotoResponse>
And all I want to do, is to extract a specific part of that text, which is the "PhotoId" value (I highlighted it in red), in this case the value is "8262715", and then store it in a variable (I know how to do that I just need the value).The text or data I'm receiving changes only the PhotoId everytime it's requested.

I'm trying to make a program that can export my schedule into a CSV file to upload on to google calender.I need to extract some text within a textbox control. I'll show you an example.This is the text in the textbox:
Quote:
Monday, 10 January, 2011
09:45 - 18:00
Phone Work09:45 - 12:15
[code]....
I need to get just the date and times from this list, and put them in variables. so that I'll end up with:
1) A string with a value as a date, which would be "10 January, 2011" for example: strDate1 would have the value of "10 January, 2011"
2) A start time, for example: strStartTime1 would have the value of 9:45
3) An end time, for example strEndTime1 would have the value of 18:00

I'm storing a multi-line text file (in .dir format) in the directory the user chooses, and what I need to do, is when they import it (which my program can already do) I need it to find the end of the file (line) and then read that line, that line will be a number which corresponds with a number system. Basically, the file looks like this
1. Time: 10/27/2009 4:58:09 PM
Title: Title
Author: Author
Entry: Test
2The 2 at the end specifies what the number will be next time. How do I do this?

I have strMyString that contains about 5000 lines of data. There are some lines of data that need removing if they contain a certain string, such as "http", "www.", ".com", "cat", "fish", etc. The whole line needs removing. Each line is separated by a vbNewLine or similar.
How can I do that? Does it need pasting into a rich textbox first before processing?

I am creating a VB application in Visual Studio 2010 that installs some SQL stored procedures. These stored procedures are encrypted otherwise I would just supply my clients with .sql files to create the stored procedures.
The install script that creates the stored procedure is 1500 lines in length and has been formatted in the way VS 2010 requires multi-line literals to be in:
"First Line" & _
"Second Line" & _
"etc..."

My problem seems simple but I can't find an answer for it.I need to be able to pull a phone number (string) from an entire string. example: "My phone number is (xxx) xxx-xxxx, call me as soon as possible."
Its obvious to me that the phone number should be able to change depending on who you are talking too. So the question becomes, how do i search for the phone number's format within the above string?

I think VB has a way of doing this, but for the life of me I can't find it. I want to search through a string for anything contained between two certain characters, e.g between 2 | characters. I'm not sure if I want to split the string at this point, but I only want anything contained between the two | markers. So for example if the string reads |ABC|DEF I only want to retrieve the ABC, but not the DEF as it's not completed yet.
