I have a text file that has about 200 programs that were dumped from a cnc machine. I want to be able to take that text file and extract each program and save it as it's own text file. There is a distinct character at the beginning and the end of each individual program. I an new to vb and the projects that I have done to this date involve database front ends so i have no idea on how to work with text files.

1. When i double-click the item (sample.txt) on my listview it will open in a notepad.
2. When i double click the item (sample.docx or sample.doc) it will open the MS word and shows me the things written on the particular item.
I have eight text boxes each can have any numerical value only consisting of the numbers 1-8 up to eight digits each. No 0's or 9's. I am using a timer to loop through the sequences of text boxes at a given rate. This is already configured.
Now here's the hard part so bare with me.I need to output the first value of a text box, wait some time then output it's counter letter (below the number on the keyboard), go to the next text box and repeat. Example:

Ultimately I'm trying bring my PC Interface project up to date by going from a parallel port to USB. This will be the "Custom Loop" function for the device.
how can I transfer the value of textbox to a gridview or when I select a value of a gridview it will be transfer to another gridview.

So far I have a button that calls scan.bat which simply runs net view and outputs to file.txt. I then want to strip out all the gumpf so it just leaves the names of the PC's in the list (not the remarks and all that).I'm new to all this, so it might not be the most elegant way of doing this!

[Code] i need a way to screen each employer status and mapping status before placing them in the DGV. I need to convert the numerical values to their corresponding status. 1 = Good, 2 = Non-Reporting, 3 = Under-Remitting and 4= Non-Remitting(which i already know how to do). I just don't know how to get the values being placed on the DGV. I would love to do this on oracle but i don't know how to.
View 11 RepliesI need help to form a code for a small arrays manipulation. The input data are known: they are two integers "N" and "s". An integer "N" is always divisible by 4.I need to create an array of "N" members, by repeating (N/4 times) this sub-array: 1,2,2,1 (always is the same). In the picture, this is shown in blue. Then I need to add the same array to the existing array, but shifted for "s" places (red array). The result is "yes" if each sum in new columns is always the same (3). Otherwise the result is "no." note there is no need to draw or display something (DGV, table ...). The required result is only "yes" or "no".
View 8 RepliesThe homework assignment goes like this: write a menu-driven program to manage an employee list. the names should appear in the listBox when the form is loaded. When a name in the listBox is highlighted the name and number txtBoxes are loaded with the correct name and employee number. Use the Update menu items--modify,add,delete to edit the listBox items.When the Exit menu item is clicked the new employee list should be written to the text file and the program should terminate.
Well, the first part was completed successfully, but when I tried to delete a name and number I recieved an error box that said "InvalidOperationException was unhandled", "sequence contains no elements" that pointed to line 35. msdn and help were no help, talked about dataset tables? Did I use the incorrect syntax? Once I resolve this issue, the other two--modify,add should be similar, but then how do I reconstruct the text file so that it will properly load the next time the form is loaded?

My current project is to process several files. The files come from a Unix server and have been SFTP'd to the Windows XP machine. (That's fixed protocol, I don't have control over it.) My problem now is that the Unix new line characters and Windows characters don't match. The solution is to read the file line by line and replace 0x0A with 0x0D + 0x0A, or Asc 10 with Asc 13 + Asc 10, or vbLf with vbCrLf, however you like to say it.Well I have a working function to do this, but any extra speed I could squeeze out of it would be fantastic. The text files I'm working with can reach sizes of about 100MB. So to the question:
Q: What is the fastest way to read a file in, change characters as necessary and then write the file out?Here is my current working code.

I thought you could use a structure as a container. I have line_1 with a line of data read in from a file. I only want to Look in position 1 of the line and position 8 for 9 and position 31 for 11. If I create a line_2 with the parts broken out for pieces that I want to look at then I could use a with statement right?

View 10 RepliesI'm currently learning VB.net and can confidently connect to databases and return results to comboboxes run stored procedures ect to datagrids, However I'm wanting to find an online tutorial for doing loops with data so for example
I return the following data into a dataset
Orderno Orderitem Price GUID
111 Pies 1.50 xxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxx
111 orangutang 2.00 xxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxx
ect
I want to display each element on a page in a structured format so as to make a visual representation in seperate entities (labels maybe) of the data like so:
Order number
line 1 (includes item and price in plain text on a page i guess using a label)
line 2 (same goes)
Subtotal( )
The results and formulae i can do but it's simply how to split off the data from my dataset and display elements as seperates (also how will i dynamically create the lables as obviously i'm not going to know in advance how many order item rows will return )
Obviously this is not urgent but if anyone could point me at a tutorial or even better a few lines of code that will do this for the microsoft northwind data so i can mess about with it and play.

Then skips straight to the Else without performing the two lines in between, regardless of whether the item was checked or not checked. It doesn't crash, doesn't throw any errors, so I am assuming I coded this wrong somehow.
I am looking for tools that will enable me to search and manipulate pdf files and pdf vector graphics. I want to search a pdf image/file for specific content and then manipulate the image. Are there any known resources out there? I have looked at the documentation on the Adobe web site, but I don't know where to begin. I'm looking for books or a forum where I can get specific information and examples.
View 1 Repliesim working on a small application that lets you input a phone number with "-" hyphens, and then copy that number to a label control minus the hyphens. So for instance 111-234-567 would become 111234567, i have accomplished this using the string.
replace command, however i was wandering if it would be possible to iterate through the string with a for next loop looking for the hyphens and then removing them with the string.
remove command, ive spent nearly 5 hrs trying to get the code to work, but to no avail, no errors are being thrown up, but the hyphens still display along with the number, i am currently teaching myself, and its a sloooooooow process. here is my unsucessful code

I'm familiar with creating tables, updating, deleting, etc. etc. using a seperate VB program and a MS Access database.
However, I would like to know how I can start manipulating reports.
For example:
The user selects items in a combobox to filter certain items in a report.
The user selects a radiobutton to determine how the report is ordered (ascending by what field)
I've tried attacking this problem using VBA, but I haven't got very far. I couldn't even make a OnClick event procedure to execute the code I had written.
I have a program that will register you for a certain website using textboxes and stuff but I have an invisible web browser and it just enters the text into the right spots and clicks the button.I was told that I can get rid of the web browser and do the whole thing faster and easier using "HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse".
View 2 RepliesI understand that there are several ways of Inserting, Updating and Deleting records in a database such as DataAdapters, DataSets, TableAdapters, SqlCommandBuilders, Parameterized SqlCommands, StoredProcedures, etc, etc,etc. According to David Sceppa Sprocs are the most preferred. Ok, I go with him on this one (who am I to challenge him anyway?).
My question is, apart from Sprocs, which of these options is the BEST for a large commercial database application and why, taking performance into account? What are the benefits and drawbacks of each option?

This is probably quite a simple question, but I can't remember how to do it off hand.I have an e-mail address of "foo@bar.com".I want to grab the @ and everything after it and then I'll be adding a prefix to the front of the address as I go.
I'm just wonderng how I get hold of the @bar.com from the string?

this topic has been touched multiple times on Stack Overflow, but my search still did not give me an answer.
I'm looking for a SIMPLE and easy to use, very basic, image editing library. All I need to do is check the size of jpeg and png files and rotate them by multiples of 90°.I can develop my app in VB.NET or preferably VB5 and I'm not using any other library.
I tried the Advanced Image Library (based on Free Image Library), but I can't get the dll to correctly register and I'm afraid that I will also have problems when distributing the application.Is there something simpler? If it's not free it's fine, as long as the cost is reasonable.
I wanted to know if it's possible to remove a paticular item in my collection and then add it back at a certain location? e.g. say I use RemoveAt and remove the first item in the colleciton; after, I want to add it back at a particular location (index)? Maybe this isn't possible with this type or any other type collection?
View 6 RepliesI'm developing my first SQL Server database app (for 30+ users) and could REALLY use some advice particularly because the app's design is pretty complex so please bear with the long explanation. My app eventually will display an always (hopefully) up to date list of files (and some related metadata) for a variety of purposes (open file, modify file's metadata, etc). The users deal with (open files, modify metadata, etc) dozens if not hundreds of files everyday so developing an app that making it all super quick and easy would really save company time in our environment over the course of a year.
The list is always enormous so my plan at the moment is to never close the app once it's running.The app will have schemes (TBD) for updating the list (modified data, new files & deleted files).It takes approx 45-60 seconds to load all the data which would make my app unusable if I were to allow the user to close the app.The design gets complicated because the list is a merging of two folder structures that share
some relative folder structures and files. The main list comes from a document management system (DMS) and the secondary list comes from a specific local folder structure (e.g. C drive). As with many DMSs, the user cannot modify documents directly in that system.

I'm expanding upon a tutorial we have in class for a cash register. The basic program is to put the name in, put the price in, then manipulating labels display the item name, price, tax, and price after tax. Three buttons being calculate tax, clear the form, exit the program.

First thing I should point out, i have looked all over, especially on DIC for examples, have found some, but none that i could get to work for me. I made a program that inserts data into a DB and then on another form it shows a gridview with the data from the DB. My first issue is im not sure how to insert items into the DB when the DB has an auto number field. I have seen on the internet to just not specify that field and let the DB handle it but its not working for me. This is what i have for that part:
Dim cmdInsert As New OleDbCommand
Dim AdoRs As New ADODB.Recordset
