VS 2010 - Reading Text File And Returning Values To Textbox
Apr 17, 2011
I've a got a homework assignment that chooses one of four values in a list box, stores it in a text file. Secondly, on the display click event it should access the text file, read the line, store it in a variable and then display the totals in a text box. Works sort of fine except that it doesn't display the totals correctly. Code for both buttons is below. The variable are assigned in the mainform (Tried also in the display button and didn't change anything). The save button works fine and stores fine in the text file, it's just the reading that's the problem.
Private Sub saveButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles saveButton.Click
'save the new vote choices to a file
Dim votes As IO.StreamWriter
votes = IO.File.AppendText("votes.txt")
Dim voteSelected As String = CStr(commercialListBox.SelectedIndex)

I've setup a TextWriterTraceListener which outputs the debug messages I've written to a file.This works fine however what I am trying to do know is output the content of this file to a textbox using a streamreader object.I originaly thought it may because I did not set the text file to allow read/write access so I changed this by setting the following:[code]

Their is a problem whenever I want to write something to a text file. Please see the attatchement to see what happens when I'm debugging. I've put the code for writing to file right at the end of the program.Here is some of the code which shows how the program writes to and reads from the file:
Option Explicit On
'Force all variables to be declared.

I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?

I am trying to create a console application that allows me to read the contents of a text file and saving the data by specific name in a set of files. For example, the text file I am going to read is a tab delimited file. Some content of the file includes full name, school, location, and whatnot. I want to save the content by school name in a set of files that have the school names. In this case, everyone that attends "Central" will be saved in a file named Central.txt.Everyone that attends "Central Park" will be saved in a file named Central Park.txt.These are the sub procedures I came up with so far:
Readfile()
'Use StreamReader
WriteFile()
And I think I am on the right track of reading the text file:
Dim objStreamReader As StreamReader
Dim strLine As String
'Pass the file path and the file name to the StreamReader constructor.

How would I go about reading a textfile, finding values and using the values in the program?Now I want the program to read the text file, find [1], use the first line after [1] as value for a variable, and the second line as value for another variable. After that I will run some code with the values and then do the same thing again for [2] etc.

I have a problem reading a file with hex values.
The values have this format: (2C 0A 0B 45 32 38)
I�ve tried two different ways to open the file. The first one, is storing in a variable of type string,
Dim srTrad As New System.IO.StreamReader(fichToOpen, System.Text.Encoding.ASCII, True)
sLine = srTrad.ReadLine()
so what I get is �2C0A0B453238�. Then I try to put them in pairs and reading as a HEX value, but I can�t. The only thing I get is the hex value of �2�, �C�, and so on. This is not what I�m looking for.
The second way is storing the values in a variable of type Byte:
Dim srByte As New IO.FileStream(fichToOpen, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim br As New IO.BinaryReader(srByte)
Dim data As Byte() = br.ReadBytes(CInt(numBytes))
The result here, is pretty the same as before. For the pair �0A� what I get is either (30,41) or (48,65) (hex values or Dec). What I need isn�t to convert a char to its Hex value (I saw several examples for this on this forum). What I need is to know that 0A means 10 (0A is a hex value itself)

I have been taking a class in Visual Basic and am currently working on my final project which I am having some trouble with. I am using Visual Basic 2010 express The project is to create an application that will store data in a text file, specifically, Last Name, First Name, Customer Number, Address, City, State, ZIP Code, Telephone Number, Account Balance, and Date of Last Payment. I have gotten everything done except the ability to search the file by Last Name or Customer Number. I have no idea how to go about this? I was thinking of ways to use indexof or Readline to be able to search the data, but I'm not familiar enough with the code to come up with a good solution. Below is a picture of how my form looks..As you can see, I'm currently using 2 separate forms to get the data from the user. Here is the code for Form1 which is the "Customer Accounts" form in the picture.
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Public customerFile As StreamWriter ' Object variable
Public customerFile1 As StreamReader ' Object variable
Public strFile As String
[Code]...
There isn't enough room to post the code for my secondary form, but you get the idea. I would like to be able to enter a search term in the textbox on the bottom right of the form, and either search the data as its displayed in the listbox, or search the actual file? I was thinking that the results would be displayed in a messagebox?

Following is the function in my class file which should read the excel file

My app is a Bible Reader. At load up I can choose Genesis Ch1 and its entirety pops into a rtb. I enter a word to search for like 'God' and hit the SEARCH button. The results I get are initially what I want. I get the verse 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. But then the app replaces the script with other words containing God, but all jumbled up. Here is the code I am using: Private Sub ToolStripButton2Search_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton2Search.Click Dim stSearch As String stSearch = Me.ToolStripButton2Search.Text For Each Line As String In File.ReadAllLines(Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "Bible VersionsKJV 1611King James Version of the Holy Bible.txt")) If Line.Contains(Me.ToolStripTextBox1.Text) Then Me.RichTextBoxViewer.Text = (Line) End If Next LineBryn Ryver

I am attempting to read a series of double prcision float values (x,y,z coordinates) from a binary file using the binary reader. Everything works fine except that when I read the number back it is different then the number that was written there (original file is generated by mining application).
written number : 78897.6476586
file contents hex : 40 F3 43 1A 5C CF 43 A4 this converts back to the same number as written using a IEE 754 conversion program. VB returned value : -5.45100266729248E-134 using .readDouble()
I have tried to step thru the file in one byte steps to make sure that I have the proper start position but that did not help any.

I am currently developing a program that can read text to audio, I know there are already thousands of software out there but it is not in my country language. Now I have found a way to invent a similar program with high quality audio, text exchanges to wav file, and I made every word a wav file that corresponds to the word, I could type text into the textbox then I could read the corresponding wav file.
my problem is being able to highlight text while reading the text box, for example: type in the textbox: HELLO MY NAME IS JOHN, NICE TO MEET YOU. WHAT'S YOUR NAME! when read and mark the same time, if there are similar words in the previous line, then jumps back word marks and ignore next word. In our examples there are two words like: NAME, when read and mark it read and select the right until it reaches the next NAME and instead marked the first, then continues. If there are several words that are in the text, always highlights of the first word.
in directory C:Audio there is those word as wav file EXAMPLE: HELLO.wav + MY.wav + NAME.wav and so on. I do not want the mark back, i want it to select those who are not selected.

I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then
EnglishForm.Show()
ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.

I want to split each line at the comma and write the left side to a textbox and the the right side to another textbox. I'm close, with the code below, but I can only post results from the first line in the file. How do I loop this and append the text results in each of the textboxes.
