VS 2010 Saving And Loading User Input?
Apr 16, 2012
Ok, as you can see I am totaly new with Visual Basic. I have learned all those loops, if&else statements, byval, byref and etc. But now, I want to create this kind of application. I have 3 textboxes. One will contain URL, second username, and last password. There is a listbox also and a button. I want when user add a values inside textboxes , that values go to listbox as one variable and then save those settings for user so when he start up application again there are saved variables inside listbox. I just dont know how to do that.

I had an Excel spreadsheet which I put in MS Access (database). I then took that database and used that as a source in VB to create a GUI for. In VB I have an input text box to search and pull of different fields. I created some queries for searches in from the text box. I have have a dataset view of the data which has the binding navigator (add, insert, save).
The problem I have is that when I hit the '+' for add to add information and then click the 'save' button in the binding Navigator, the information I put in does not save. I check this by exit out of the program run (debug to open the app) and then open it back up to search and/or check for the new information I put in. My overall goal is to create to publish the final code and use an a standalone program.
Also, as another option,(I would like to learn) Is there a way to map VB directly to an Excel file to have the user input information and save to the excel file.

Ive been working on a checkbook application for my visual basic class and I'm a little stumped..
To preface, the values I need to mess with include:
transaction type (checking or deposit)
DTP
check number ("dep" if deposit)
[Code].....
Below is the Change I need to make to my program...
"You will create a set of either collections or arrays (your choice but use just one or the other--don't mix them) scoped at the form/module level. These structures will store all of the input data needed for your checkbook transactions except for the running balance which will continue to be stored in a single module-scoped variable. That is, every input that users made in Assignment 3 will be stored in one of these arrays but you will not store any calculated values. You will not store the transaction type but will store "Dep" or a number in the check number array which will also indicate the transaction type. The Record button will add the current sale's data to these structures using either ReDim for the arrays or an appropriate technique for the collections. (You must ReDim your arrays so that the have just enough space for the data that is in them. Declaring the arrays with a large size with no facility to resize them is not allowed. Don't forget to use the ReDim Preserve syntax to retain the existing array contents when you resize them.)"
I don't know if I make a single array for all the values or if I create a separate one for each. If its a separate one for each I don't understand why an array is needed.

The problem is this: I have two forms. One form and the other form do mathematical calculations. I want to save the values that the user inputs, so when the user quits the program and then starts it up again the values are still there. But when I open up the program, start typing in values, then calculate them, hit quit. Try to open up the program again, its giving me a message that the input file is invalid. When I click ok, the program doesn't crash, continues. But the values are not there at all. The other form I put exactly the same code, just changed the variables and it doesn't want to save the values at all! I wrote this code for saving and loading the values:

So far i have a really basic form application that allows a user to enter some information and does a small calculation, displaying all of the information gathered on the final form.
Im looking to try to save this information but have no idea where to start,im trying to just take whatever is in my text field and put it in a table row. I created a one table database in Access and linked it to the form with a button to try and save it.
I thought it would be as simple as tablename.rowname = textbox.text or something but apparently not and all ive ended up with so far is this:
Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
Me.Validate()
Me.TblCustomerBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblCustomertableadaptor.Update(Me.DatabaseDataSet.tblCustomer)
End Sub
I dont even think im close, ive just been fiddling with the predefined code in Visual Studio, trying import ect but the button just doesnt seem to do anything.

Please feel free to critique my attached code. [Code]

what I am trying to do is get a program to load data from a text file with multiple lines in the form "Name, Type, Stocklvl, Price, Location, Reorderlvl" then display it all in a data grid. From where it can be viewed and edited as well as saved back into the original file stock.txt as well as generating a separate file reorder.txt which includes data on what needs to be reordered and the date which updates on program exit. I have chosen to use datagridview something I'm unfamiliar with as I figure It'd probably be the most functional to meet my needs of displaying a lot of data clearly as much as 200 items.

I'm a novice, messing around with input boxes in VB 2010 Express. I know most programmers recommend not using input boxes except for the simplest things, but what I'm doing IS the simplest thing. Besides, I'm really just experimenting for the sake of learning.
I want a few input boxes to appear, one at a time. Let's say there are six input boxes in this project. The user can input anything he wants in each input box. After the user has entered text into the six input boxes, the program should write the text to a file. This is the part I'm having trouble with. [Code]
I haven't figured out if title.input is correct or not, or if I need something instead of commas in between each item. And the headers (i.e. the "First Name" stuff) needs to be added in there also, but I need to get the syntax of the code right first before getting to that.

I'm stuck with this problem: How to save what a user does to the program. For instance, in my program, the user can change the text of the button to whatever he/she wants. However, when she/he reopens the program, the button text she/he made doesn't stay there; they have to rename it. I just wanted to know what the code was to save the user's achievements.

So I'm developing a Windows Forms Application in Visual Basic 2010. The user searches for data and fetches results, updates fields and some other CRUD operations. I want to provide a user input validation. Usual stuff i.e. some fields need to be always numbers>0, others need to be non-empty in order to avoid Null access on some objects and others just need to be some fixed strings.

How do I prompt the user to input elements in a two dimensional array? And how do I then save the output?I've figured out how write and print a program where the program provides the elements (see short version below), but I can't work out how to get the user to input the elements instead.
Solfa(0, 0) = 11
Solfa(0, 1) = 12
Solfa(1, 0) = 21

I've worked out how to display charts in VB 2010 Express, but now I'm needing the user to input data into a spreadsheet/table that will be used within the program. I know that table is no longer available and neither is the OWC11 set. Is my remaining option then to use DataGridView? I know it is SQL based and I don't have much experience there yet, but I didn't want to commit to it if there is another method that would work just as well. The values that are put in by the user does not need to be preserved.

I have DataTable, and is bound to DataGridView. So, when the user inputs some values in 4 columns, it would calculate the sum and put it in the last 2nd last column.
Here's the code that I'm experimenting:
vb.net
Private Sub DataGridView1_RowLeave(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.RowLeave
Dim i As Integer
Dim intTotal As Integer = 0
For i = 5 To DataGridView1.Columns.Count - 3
[Code]...
So, basically it should sum up certain columns when the user enters numbers into it and then display it in the last column.

I'm making a log for my application.I have made the log and it works.I use the streamreader and the streamwriter to save and load the data. I thought that it would be more organized to have columns inside the log.The problem is how will i save the information to the text file and load it up again so that it could organize itself again. The code that i used to make the columns.
log.Columns.Add("Task performed ", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.3), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add("Time and date", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.2), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add(" Amount of detected files(s)", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.2), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add(" App version", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.4), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
The code that i use to add the information to the log.

I cannot figure out how to incorporate the number of days into the input box then get it to loop and count the number of times the User inputs in the number of days. Then I have to incorporate it into the equation to get the total distance D = MPH * Hours. What I have right now wil not count up the number of days and locks up after I input one number and will not add anything to the listbox. Because I also have to make sure that they cant add nonnumaric values and the number of hours per day cannot exceed 20. I have put things in and taken them out but it has been 2 days and I am lost now

I'm looking to work on a project at work and I'm preparing to do my home screen of my program and I'm stuck on how to prep for all of this. I want to be able to save projects (and its not just one form that will be saved, 26 future forms to be exact), load projects, create new projects and view available projects to be selected from in the home screen. Really a very standard home screen when concerning professional programming. I'm not quite sure how to go about this or when looking ahead what might be a best practice. I haven't worked with databases, so my knowledge is limited.
