VS 2010 Read Text File To End?

Jan 21, 2011

I'm trying to do is read a text file from a certain line to the end of the file. For example, say the text file is:

Hello
Everyone
My Name
Is Tyler

I would like to be your friend. Would you be mine? I like dogs, cats, and basically any animal. I play the tuba and am in a band at college. I go to UMass. Do u like UMass?

(none of the above info is true FYI)

My code would look like this:

Dim hello as string= io.file.readlines(c:/text.txt)(0)
Dim everyone as string= io.file.readlines(c:/text.txt)(1)
Dim myname as string= io.file.readlines(c:/text.txt)(2)
Dim istyler as string= io.file.readlines(c:/text.txt)(3)

But say I wanted it to read from line 4 to the end of the file? The entire description I would want to save as one variable. How would I do this?

VS 2010 Read Specific Line Out Of A Text File?

Jun 28, 2010

Okay, so I've been looking on the web for a way to read only ONE line out of a text file. Recently I've gotten by by creating separate text file for each line (such as a text file named, "Username", another named "Password", instead of creating a single text file with both the user name and password.) Now I am faced with having to do this. I want a quick and easy way, VB won't let me do open file as input #1 for some reason. I just need the second line of text out of this text file. What is the quickest and easiest (and painless) way of doing this?

VS 2010 - Load, Read, Locate, & Copy Text In A File?

Jun 14, 2011

I'm calling a 3rd part app which 'sometimes' works in VB.NET (it's a self-hosted WCF). But sometimes the 3rd party app will hang forever, so I've added a 90-second timer to it. Problem is, how do I know if the thing timed out?

Code looks like this:

Dim MyProcess as System.Diagnostics.Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(MyInfo)
MyProcess.WaitForExit(90000)

What I'd like to do is something like this

If MyProcess.ExceededTimeout Then
MyFunction = False
Else
MyFunction = True
End If

VS 2010 : Read Text File And Store Certain Blocks As Variables?

Dec 24, 2010

My text file is a settings file and I know I will be adding more to it in the future, right now it reads "autoplay=false;mintray=false;"I am currently using probably the most inefficient way to check both of those settings:

if contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=false;" then
elseif contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=true;" then
elseif contents = "autoplay=true;mintray=false;" true
elseif contents = "autoplay=true;mintray=true;"
endif

How can I read the file, find each word from the equals sign to the semicolon, and store each of them in a variable identified by the text before the equals sign? Something like this:

contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=false;"
autoplay = "false"
mintray = "false"

Also, how can I edit the settings in the text file without having to overwrite everything every time I save to it? For instance; finding mintray in the text file, and changing mintray to true instead of overwriting the file with "autoplay=false;mintray=true;".

This is my current

Reading
Dim fs As New FileStream("C:myfile.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim d As New StreamReader(fs)

Before I begin I would like to mention that I am not a noob in VB, it's just I've never had to do anything this complex before.Basically what I want is to have a program that you can load a txt file in, have it copy key words, and paste it in a textbox so I can use it later on.So in this text file, there is a bunch of info, but I am only needing a certain part.Here is an example of a text file (actually a .dat file, but is easily read):

Read Text File And Stop Then How To Continue At The Last Read Point

Dec 15, 2009

I'm using vb.net 1.1 to develop the program. I got text files that contain test result from a machine, like below.

T1 1.24535 2.56335 2.43253 1.24538 2.55619 4.35243
T2 1.42542 1.63728 3.57295 4.59275 1.57320 2.72057
T3 5.12857 2.45375 6.38593 2.58375 3.57259 3.57204

I need to check the test result with the data from database, to find out which test result is failed. If there is a fail test result, I will show an alert to the operator and stop the checking process. Until the operator close the alert, then the checking process will continue from the last read point.

VB 2008 - Read From Text File And Display In Text?

May 26, 2008

how to do this for vb6 however i am using vb 2008 and the code for vb6 does not seem to work.

I have designed a form with a text box on it, and a command button underneath. The idea is to run this as a sort of stiky notes section.

I want the text box to read rich text into the textbox (C:\\stickynotes.rtf")

Then i have a command button underneath which i want to save the content of the rich text box to the rtf file (C:\\stickynotes.rtf). This is so that the user can edit and ammend information.

here is some code i have so far

Dim fileReader As System.IO.StreamReader
fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader("C:\\stickynotes.rtf")

File I/O And Registry :: Implement A Routine To Read A Plain Text File?

Mar 21, 2010

I need to implement a routine to read a plain text file, BUT that file has a predefined format.The file format is as follows:

Quote:

<FILE_PROPERTIES> 'The "< >" also appears
Propertie1="String" 'It's possible to have spaces after or before the "="
Propertie2="String"
Propertie3="String"
PropertieN="String"

[code]....

Is there any Windows API Routine to read something like that?Or could you point me an URL where something is implemented?I don't want a procedure to read the file line by line and comparing them with Line Input because blank spaces, empty lines and comments starting with " // " may appear too, and I don't want to take them into account, but also I need to save changes to the file, but only to the modified section, without having to read the whole file, and re-write it completely.

Binary access can't work, because I don't know what's the size of each "section", since the number of elements into it can change.
I need something like the "ReadINI" Windows API Procedure, but allowing me to read the "[XXX]" sections headers, and also the "<XXX>" file title header.
