View 2 RepliesI currently have an HTML form that saves one input to a txt file that exists on my website.
I want to do this using visual basic(not vb script) in a codebehind page for and aspx form. everything i find on google tells me how to save the file on my computer or to a server on my system. This server exsists on a hosted website and I don't have access to the permissions on that host.
This works fine for the form post. how do i do it with vb
i am doing a small app where in one part i need to add certain lines of text ( from one variable ) to a richtexbox
i read a txt file line by line , i check something , if the condition its true then i add that line to a string variable , i need to add that variable contents to the richtexbox , i can't find the equivalent of textbox1.AppendText(textline) for the richtextbox .
im trying to write a program that checks a website if a certain value is within a limit and if not enters a value into a text box and submits the information. I have researched into httpwebrequest however i cannot quite figure out how to progress from page to page. I also found that i can do browser manipulation however I don't a browser to be a open while the program is waiting for a specific value. So is there any way to do something like browser manipulation without the browser?
View 2 RepliesI'm a complete programming nublet.I got nothing.But I'm trying to start learning. I figured the best idea was to figure out some things I'd like to be able to automate, pick some that sound relatively simple, find code that does it, and start picking it apart. I haven't found what I'm looking for on this one, so I figured I'd ask here.
What I am trying to do, is create an exe (so it can be run remotely with admin priveleges) that will read a file, determine if a couple lines exist, and if not, will write them in the correct spot in the file.
Am I being too ambitious on this? Can it be done? Can someone help me with how?
Total noobie when it comes to VB, but I'm jumping in. I have about 15 years with Business Basic and see many similar things between VB and BBx so hopefully the learning curve will not be to steep.
Anyway the project I wish to complete is: Use portable computers running Windows CE 5.0 to scan bar coded labels to capture data collected during a physical inventory. The labels have 2 fields - bin location and item. My form will have a textbox for 3 items - bin location, item and quantity. Also, the form will have 2 radio buttons to accept or reject entry. I plan on writing the records to a simple text file to import in to the current application I am running.
I downloaded Microsoft Visual Basic Express 2008 and have done a little prodding around so far. I know the Express version does not support mobile device application development so that needs to be upgraded. My question is, can someone recommend a good book that would cover the areas I need to be concerned with?
Also, any good online resources?
I have a text file that I am reading from which is a list of first and last names. They are in order but they are on different lines of the text file. I am trying to read them into an array and put the first and last names together on separate lines.

I know there's ton of examples on the forum but i could not get it to work the way i want.
Sample CSV :-
Unused,172.22.21.2,SD103001
Unused,172.22.21.3,SD103002
Unused,172.22.21.4,SD103003
And what i wana do is change the Unused to Used so basically once this is done it will look like.
Used,172.22.21.2,SD103001
Unused,172.22.21.3,SD103002
Unused,172.22.21.4,SD103003
One thing to mention is i dont want to loop through the whole file and change all the Unused to Used. So basically software fires up opens the file and looks for Unused and changes it to Used and does the rest of the function and shuts down. Next time the software is fired up it goes through and does the same thing.
