I'm implementing a feature which reads comma separated txt file from server(one line at a time). Format of file is fixed, There are 3 columns on each row. After reading the row from file I insert it in a database table. But first value of each row aoutomatically appends two blank spaces, even if there are no blank spaces at the begining of each row. I tried to use "TRIM/LTRIM/Replace" to remove blank spece from the first value of each row, but didn't succeed.

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:

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 1 RepliesOkay, 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?

View 2 RepliesI'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

MyFunction = True
End If
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
