VS 2010 StreamReader And StreamWriter?
Nov 10, 2010
I am using streamreader and streamwriter to read a text file , change the text, then write to the same text file. This all happens in a loop every second or so.Currently I use:
Dim csetpointfileread As New System.IO.StreamReader("C:webcsetpoint.txt")and Dim csetpointfile As New System.IO.StreamWriter("c:webcsetpoint.txt", False)before every file read / write operation, it gets dimensioned every loop. To me this seems like a waste, and should only have to be dimentioned once. If I try to run both statements in the beginning, outside of the loop, the second statement wont work because the "file is allready open". Am I missing something or am I doing it correctly to begin with?

I am writing a click event to delete an item selected from a list view which will utlimately be deleted from the csv file the information is coming from.Currently I am having streamreader read each line and then replace the selected line with a blank line. This creates blank lines in my csv files. Is there a way to delete a line using sr or sw without creating blank lines?Or is there a way to have them read/write a file skipping any empty lines?

I'm creating a text file and, among other things, I need to write the text of the parent and child nodes of a TreeView to the file. I know how to write the contents and read them just fine, but what I can't seem to figure out is how to write the contents if I don't know how many parent nodes or child nodes there are. When I do, I usually do the following:

To automate mailmerge function in word, i need to join different elements to complete the mailmergedatasource. In one of these file are words with special characters like ©, §,¨, .... When openng these files for reading, streamreader transfoms the characters to unreadable signs. When i give a type to use to open like ASCII, Unicode,it works for one or tho characters but not for all. I have the same problem when the character is read correctly, with streamwriter output to a textfile. Word cannot read the textfile and ask to define which type of coding should be used. In most of the cases not all the characters can be converted to readable characters.

In my code I've allowed used to create their own mazes and save them, under whatever name they like. I've also included a few pre-created mazes. The mazes themselves are saves in .txt files in the bin/debug folder of the project, along with a .txt file containing the maze names.
I really need to publish this program to send it to my teacher, but when I publish it it doesn't include any of the .txt files in my bin/debug folder.

I am trying to use filestream and streamwriter / streamreader to have a simple text box where the text entered is written to a text file, and then a button can be clicked to read the file and present the text back to the textbox. It works, but the problem I'm having is that if i change the text to something smaller in length (less text) than what is currently in the file, then press the button to read the file, it still contains some of the old text that was previously in the file.
Dim strmReadFile As New FileStream(txtPath.Text, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read)
Dim readHandle As New StreamReader(strmReadFile)
'read the entire text, and set it to a string
Dim streamFileContents As String = readHandle.ReadToEnd()

I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

I have a problem with a streamreader in visual basic 2008.I am updating a database from text files on an ftp server. The streamreader works fine until the file is more than 100,000 bytes long.It reads until it reaches this point and then just ends. No error message, it just reads to this point which happens to be 2 fields out of 6 in the database stream. My question is - does the streamreader have a limit? And if so what is a workaround?

I'm writing a program that basically loads an entire text file into a streamreader variable, then reads this variable line by line and parses and writes a line into a new text file. I'm VERY new and my knowledge is mostly self-taught, but I can't seem to get out of this one. It works for smaller files, but it appears to reach a limit in characters at some point because in a file of 900 lines, it stops writing about halfway through 800 and there are no errors, the program actually completes and the message box pops up.
There are a few things with this code I already know I should fix, such as creating the new text file name, it's messy, I just don't know how.

What is the best method to get towards the end of a file in a Stream Reader. In my case, I have data at the end I want, but the rest of the data I don't need. If the file is very large instead of reading line by line until eof, is there a better way to get to the end?

I have an application in which a streamwriter is used to save values to a file. It all works fine, except I'm curious as to why the values in the file would be rounded. They are rounded with enough accuracy that it doesn't really matter to the app, but I'd like to know why this is happening. My line of code that writes the line is.

building another command-line app and I need to generate a log file and write to it throughout the app's run, but the log needs to be named <work_order>_<device>.log - both of those are held in a text file and will change frequently.
I can extract them no problem, and use them in the log file, but can't get the log file to use them in the name.
so I have:
Using strDATA As New StreamReader(DATA_FILE)
Do While Not strDATA.EndOfStream
Dim eng As String() = Split(strDATA.ReadLine, "=")
[Code]....
PATH and WORK_ORDER are declared as Public earlier on as are PATH, LOG, TMP and CSV, this sub is also Public. I also need to use the log writer in other subs as well as WORK_ORDER and DEVICE.

I have a subroutine that needs to accomplish the following things:
1. Open wordpad (wordpad.exe) - so the user can see the file being written to for printing purposes.
2. Create wordpad file (Sample.wri)
3. Write various text to Sample.wri (in the wordpad window that opened) using Streamwriter. Again, this is for printing purposes.
The code below is the start of the subroutine. As it is written, Wordpad does start, and Sample.wri is created. But the streamwriter DOES NOT write the "does this work?" text to the file created, nor does it display in the window that opened when wordpad process started. I'm new to using streamwriter so I'm sure I've overlooked something simple. The start of my subroutine is below:

How do I use line numbers? For example, I'm reading a text file and I'll need to get the line number of the line "=====LINE=====" somewhere in the text file, and I'll need to get the text of the next line (+1 of the previous line, but I'm not sure how to do readline(line number)).

I am doing an assignment for my programming class in which we have a text document full of names (one per line), and we set up a program with a textbox, button, and listbox. The user enters a name in the text box, clicks the button, and it searches the document for the name. If it's found, the listbox should say so and list the line number.I can get that working no problem, but the assignment also requires informing the user if the name can not be found, and I am not doing something right with that.My code is as follows:
Quote:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim inputname As String = TextBox1.Text
Dim linecount As Double = 0
If I remove the three bolded lines and it finds a name, it will work fine to the point that it informs as such and tells what line it is on, but it won't inform the user if a name wasn't found, which I need. I thought adding those three bolded lines would help, but when I have them in there, it will incorrectly display "Name not found. " no matter what name I type in the box, even if it is in the text document.
