View 4 RepliesI need to have two pieces of software, made in vb where one encrypts the contents of a .txt file, and the other decrypts it, and then picks one word at random and displays it each time a button is pressed, but never displays the same word. Or, if there was a way to hard code it into the program as there is only 5 words that would be better.

I need to pick a random answer, not including the question. let it be the simplest solution. I am only a beginner.
I have this code to pick a random number Between X and Y
X = Minimum Number
Y = Maximum Number
But the problem is i wanted to know if there is a better random function than the one i have.
Because right now i put
Min = 1
Max= 2
and it keeps picking 1
if i had min =1 and max =2 i want it to pick 1 sometimes and 2 sometimes
and now i tried min = 1 max = 3 and it never picks 3, it only picks 1 and 2
ok
Public Class Form1
Public Function RandomNumber(ByVal MinNumber As Integer, ByVal MaxNumber As Integer) As Integer

how I pick a random item from a array?Here's the little bit of code I got:
Dim array() As String
Dim words As String
words = "hello*123*abc*zxw"
array = Split(words, "*")
But what should I do next to randomly select a item from "array"?
So what I'm trying to do is not so much generate a random word but pick one from a collection. I was thinking on generating a random number since that is very easy, then picking a word acording to the number generated. Is there a more efficient way of doing this?

View 1 RepliesI am not so good at VB.NET, well, I am working with a school to run a Spelling Bee aimed at children in year 7. And to make it fair and unbiased i need an application that can choose randomise a word from the list box then transfer the string to the text box. So basically something that can pick a random string from the listbox and show it in the textbox1.text property.

"dubstep","metal","hardcore","rap"

Basically what I want to achieve with this code is to read the text file and import the corresponding line to its textbox. But when i run this code BUT_A.text returns the value that is set for BUT_B on the textfile then any code after that doesn't import at all. Here's the code I am using for the open button (I'll be adding a OFD later)

I'm trying to make a tool that supposed to do the following.
When I type i.e. the number 12345678 in TextBox1 and click on Button1. The number should go to RichTextBox1 on a new line with the text:
There Are 12345678 Bannana
Now, when I fill in at TextBox1 12345679 and click on Button1, a new line should be added to RichtextBox1, making it:
There Are 12345678 Bannana
There Are 12345679 Bannana
And so on...
What ever I try I cant get this to work,
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 have some coding which displays a label if the value of a textbox matches the first value of each line in a textfile.
Dim sList As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("Path"))
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To sList.Count - 1
[Code]...
The problem is if the textbox has 1 and the textfile has 11 it will display the label, what would be the best way around this?
I have tried sList(i).Contains etc but none of them are doing the job.
can somone just post a code of
1. Writing the last line of .txt into textbox1
2. Adding line from textbox to .txt
I am trying to read in a TextBox line by line and take the first 7 characters of each line and output everything in another TextBox.This is what I have so far.

View 5 RepliesThe class Random is out right defective. It always produces the same random numbers in the same sequence. Things I have tried so far is every kind of seed you can think of as well as Randomize. The result is that I always get the same random numbers in exactly the same sequence.
View 4 RepliesI am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.
Private Sub GenerateTrees()
NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15
For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1

I am quite puzzled here. I have a program inwhich when the user clicks on the command button, a random line should appear but only once. I am storing each line with different variables. Right now i have the random line coming up but it is repeating itself. For instance, when i click on the button, line 1 appear, then line 4, and them line 1 again. How can i stop the line 1 to show again?
View 3 Repliesa user copies multiple lines of text (say, from an email) into the clipboard. Based on my observations, when one tries to paste the text into a single-line textbox, only the first line is actually pasted in. (I am aware that the "obvious" solution would be to set the Multiline property to True, but there are reasons I am looking to avoid this and to put multi-line data into a single line.)
In the TextChanged event handler, I wrote code that parses the clipboard data to successfully convert it to a single-line, comma-delimited format.
