In my combobox I have a list of sub folders (so all folders in my Jobs folder), each sub folder has a text file called summary.txt - would it be possible to display fields from the summary.txt in various textboxes if a folder is selected from the combobox? I use the following coding to display folder list in my combobox

Basically I would like to read in this file line by line and separate every every field into a custom variable and then do some processing. So, I would read in the first record and put the data into these fields

I'm trying to insert a couple of fields into a csv config file and then update all other rows in the file at the same index by copying the previous 2 entries. I'm reading through each row and converting the row into a list(of String) because it seems to be the most flexible way. Ine initial insert works fine, but the code below doesn't. The actual insert code is:

pcIndex is the list index value from elsewhere in the code at the insertion of the 1st of a pair of values into one row. I need to update that index point and pcIndex +1 in all other rows. However it's not doing anything. Tried using lstSteps.Insert, InsertRange, etc. Am I using this right? Is there a better way? It seems to be over-writing the entry rather than inserting a new column and moving the others up, so it appears the list capacity value isn't updating - so I'm left with the initial row with 4 more entries than the others sticking out of the file.

I've got myself a CSV file with the following contents:
1,The Compact,1.8GHz,1024MB,160GB,440
2,The Medium,2.4GHz,1024MB,180GB,500
3,The Workhorse,2.4GHz,2048MB,220GB,650
It's a list of computer systems, basically, that the user can purchase.I need to read this file, line-by-line, into an array. Let's call this array csvline().The first line of the text file would stored in csvline(0). Line two would be stored in csvline(1). And so on. (I've started with zero because that's where VB starts its arrays). A drop-down list would then enable the user to select 1, 2 or 3 (or however many lines/systems are stored in the file). Upon selecting a number - say, 1 - csvline(0) would be displayed inside a textbox (textbox1, let's say). If 2 was selected, csvline(1) would be displayed, and so on.
It's not the formatting I need help with, though; that's the easy part. I just need someone to help teach me how to read a CSV file line-by-line, putting each line into a string array - csvlines(count) - then increment count by one so that the next line is read into another slot.So far, I've been able to paste the numbers of each system into an combobox:
Using csvfileparser As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser _
("F:folderprogramnameprogramnameinDebugsystems.csv")
Dim csvalue As String()[code]......
But this only selects individual values. I need to figure out how selecting one of these numbers in the combobox can trigger textbox1 to be appended with just that line (I can handle the formatting, using the string.format stuff). If I try to do this using csvalue = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I get the following error message:
"Error 1 Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String'."
If I then put it as an array, ie: csvalue() = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I then get a different error message:"Error 1 Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array."

I have a Combobox called CmbPayMethod and has two fields namely BACS and Cheque. When the form is loaded the combo box is populated with want was previously stored in the database i.e., either BACS or Cheque.
Now, I have another text box called TxtOracleNo and is always loaded with an oracle number which is extracted from the code below.
[Code]...
what I want to do is when the pay method in the CmbPayMethod is changed from BACS to Cheque or vice versa the value in TxtOracleNo is changed to reflect what is stored in gprdsql.TblOracleNos. Note: TblOracleNos stores all the oracle numbers and their pay methods.
Therefore, for example in the table , BACS and Cheque have the oracle numbers of 32 and 34, respectively. Lets say when the form is loaded the CmbPayMethod = BACS and TxtOracleNo = 32. So, when I change the CmbPayMethod to Cheque then it should instantly change TxtOracleNo textbox to 34.
Using VB.Net I would like to read the fields from a SQL table and populate a CheckedListBox control with each field in the data table.

I was hoping someone could help me please, how do you list all files in a directory in a combobox?
The following works to display all folders.
cbolist.Items.AddRange((From folder In New IO.DirectoryInfo("Path").GetDirectories Select (folder.Name)).ToArray)I have tried the following but it fails
cbolist.Items.AddRange((From folder In New IO.DirectoryInfo("Path").GetDirectories Select (file.Name)).ToArray)
in my project, i want to read an ini file - i.e. C:xyz.ini
ini contains:
[0089]
Vendor=INTEL
8874=28F640W18TE
8981=NU48F256
8982=NU48F512
I can read through usb - i.e. phone id : "89820089" Now 8982 should = to NU48F512 as we have it in ini.
I have a problem and hope someone have idea to rsolve it. I have a file and inside the file the format is like that :
123.567 456.789 12.345 223 223 221 223
123.555 456.788 12.344 223 223 221 222
123.456 345.678 456.234 445 445 445 445
total line is 3456789903. I want use vb console application to read the line and every 130000 line create a new output file.
I need to read lines from file. Now my code is like this:
Sub data()
Dim reader As New IO.StreamReader("log.txt")
For i = 0 To 1500
date(i) = reader.ReadLine
Next i
End Sub
Now if some user will change add or remove the data from this file, it will end up with error or sth. I also tried to write sth like this:
Open "C:in.txt" For Input As intInFile
But there appears an error, that open is not declared and IO functionality is microsoft.visualbasic namespace. I added this name space (at the top: Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic), but this error still occurs.
I'm using vb 2010 express and composing a program that is using english and hebrew. The problem is the hebrew characters are not showing up in vb when reading the file I stream to. I would like for it to show exactly how I have it written in the text file.
View 5 RepliesMy question is a rather simple one and to be honest with you, I am not sure if it can be done. Lets say I have a mutli-line text box, is it possible, and if so how would I go about making it so if I clicked Open with > editor I could do things with this text, such as TextBox.text = [file contents]. If it's not possible just let me know and I'll stick with open file dialogs.

I created an application that I use when deploying packages which allows users to postpone it from running until they are ready. There are two text boxes that contain restart warning messages.
Is there a way I could use an external file such as an INI where I could place a different message? If the app could read the messages in the text file at runtime and place them in the appropriate text box, it could make this app a little more flexible.
As it is now, if managers want the message changed, I have to change it in the source and recompile. That is not a good way of accomplishing the change.
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

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?

View 7 RepliesI'm working on a new version of something I had created years ago in VB6. What I was doing then is populating a combobox with lines from a sequential file ("title","URL") like this:
Open "data.dat" For Input As #1
Do While Not (EOF(1))
Input #1, NameInput, URLInput
cmbEntry.AddItem NameInput
Loop
And then checking against it on a button click to load the URL associated with the selected name:
Open "data.dat" For Input As #2
Do While (cmbEntry.Text <> NameInput) And (Not (EOF(2)))
Input #2, NameInput, URLInput
Loop
[Code] .....
What I'm trying to do in Visual Basic 2010 is the same process, though I'll be including a third field ("category","title","URL") to determine which one of four different comboboxes I add the entry to. I know I need to use streamreader, but I'm not finding much in the way of documentation or examples on how to do what I'm trying to do, which is:
- Populate one of four comboboxes with the second value in each line of an external text file, based on the first value in that line
- Set a string to the third value in a line of an external text file, based on the second value of that line
How to read these values from the file.
