I have a bar cash register and have buttons for the drinks and number pad. In the program I have it working and it is reading the File and storing it in a Array. the problem i have is writing back to the part of the textfile. Here is 2 of the drinks buttons, all the rest of the drinks are the same.

what I have to do is read the 5 names inside the Sequential Access File and store them in an array. I'v encountered a problems in storing it in an array. Here's the code
Dim infile As IO.StreamReader
Dim names(4) As String
Dim filename As String = "names.txt"

Theres an error in the code saying that a string cannot be converted into a one dimensional array.
This code get the data into the file, but no back out.Where am I going wrong?
Code: Function test() As Boolean sFileName = "Carrier.dat" iFileNumber = FreeFile() FileSystem.FileOpen(iFileNumber, sFileName, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.ReadWrite)
If FileSystem.FileLen(sFileName) = 0 Then ReDim tMyStructure(7) tMyStructure(1).name =

I've got the following txt file:
[code]...
Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:
[code]...
Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...
My questions are:
1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns
2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )
Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)
I've setup a TextWriterTraceListener which outputs the debug messages I've written to a file.This works fine however what I am trying to do know is output the content of this file to a textbox using a streamreader object.I originaly thought it may because I did not set the text file to allow read/write access so I changed this by setting the following:[code]
View 4 RepliesI have a txt file, that i want to read into my program. The problem is this:The textfile is a stats file for a game and looks like this:
Code:
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
etc.
The main thing i want to do is sort these things out and then add to mysql database table that would have these columns:
Code:
ip authid wins username points
So what i wanna do is splitting this textfile data up and then adding everything to a mysql table.

I have not written this type of coding before and I need your help to show me sample coding in order for me to learn something new.
I have an application that gathers data from a SQL database that is used by a 3rd party helpdesk application.My application is pulling out information of the number of hours worked by each engineer for the current and previous 2 months.Also as part of this process, my application works out the target hours for each of those months.
My application has 3 groupboxes whose label is generated at runtime. My application gives the Groupbox1.text the name of the current month, Groupbox2.text the name of the previous month, and Groupbox3.text the name of the month before that (e.g. Mar, Feb, Jan).
What I am trying to do is have 2 text boxes for each month where I can enter the number of engineer holidays taken and the number of public holidays if any. I want to store these values in an XML file, and I guess they need to be stored to match the Groupbox text (i.e. Mar, Feb, Jan).
When the application starts, I need to parse that XML file and re-populate the text boxes with those number of days - BUT if the month has moved on, so that the Groupboxes are now called Apr, Mar, Feb then I want the Mar and Feb data to be loaded, and I want the XML file to be updated so that Apr is added and Jan is removed from it.I want the XML file to keep the current and previous two months figures only.
I am trying to create a textfile and write some lines into the textfile. However, the code that i am using can only write when the textfile is already created in the directory.
For this case, can i actually allow my script to search if a textfile is being created, if not create a textfile ???
Dim pathdir As String = "C:workingdir est.txt"
If System.IO.File.Exists(pathdir) = True Then
Dim objWriter As New StreamWriter(pathdir)

I'm trying to read data from a text file with multiple records and fields separated by tabs to store into arrays, which I later want to output into a textbox on the form. The problem is that with the code I've written, when I debug it it exits the sub procedure when it enters the first loop where the parser is reading the text file. There are no error messages, it just exits? I'm not even sure if what I've written is possible. Here's what I've written so far:

View 2 RepliesI'm making a program which has 7 textboxes. I intend the program to be used for classes in school, so the text would be like 2D Art, Geology etc... whatever your classes are. I have figured out how to use the streamwriter to take the text in the textboxes and write them to a .txt file however, my issue is with loading the text from the .txt file back into the textboxes. I did figure out how to write it so that all the text in the .txt file is loaded back into textbox1 but I have 7 textboxes... Here's the coding for the Load button:

I'm close to getting this to work, but currently can't get any output to display in the listbox. I had it working, but needed to move some things around to get the join function to work.In my program, a user enters input into a textbox and an array is displayed in a listbox based on what they type in. For example, if they type in "a", all foods (in the textfile that is connected to the program) that start with "a" will be displayed.
When there is output, I need to find a way to name this array (which is created based on what the user inputs) and join all of the items in the listbox (example: foods stacked on top of each other in the listbox will be shown at the bottom as a string).I am posting the code that I have thus far; all of the errors that I'm getting (and potentially my logic errors) are just in the first public class until the end of the first if-next statement:
Public Class frmFoods
Dim foods() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines("foods.txt")
Private Sub btnDisplay_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDisplay.Click

I'm making a personal program (So it doesn't have to look nice or be super sleek) that is basically an alarm clock. I set the time and date, it writes it to a text document then it reads it from the text document back into another textbox that is hidden and compares it to label1.text which is my system time and date.the problem is, I have it so that I can add multiple dates in one document so when I enter one it'll do as so [code]how can I make the program read 1 line, wait for it to match the label, (I already make it display a message box) and then after that is all done, go to the next line and wait for it to match. etc etc.

I want read the content of the text file and write to vb.net application. My text file name is wires.txt. The above code only read and the file appear on the application. I dont want the file to be visible to the end user.
It may seem noobish but, I've been try forever! I've been postponing a database project for like 3 years and I finally come to some solutions except for when it deletes an Item from the list. On form load, the listbox generates data from a text file (we'll call text1) which has data in it. For every line of data in that text file (text1), there is a text file (text2) in a 2nd folder.
For example, there may be, in text1, a line named "Hi". In the 2nd folder there is a text file named "hi.txt" Another line (say the next line under 'Hi') is written as "Hello world", there will be a file in the second folder called hello world.txt"
May seem confusing but it works well. My problem is making that 1st text file that has ALL of the data that loads into the listbox, be rewritten over with the new data in the listbox OR remove a certain line of from the text file.
I have a problem with reading data from a textfile called RESORT.TXT

I can't seem to figure out the datatype for the phone number? It displays in my listbox, but I only recieve the number 6 and the not the full listing of the phone number 604 777 1234.
I can retreive all items in my notepad but when I am adding them up in my listbox, and trying to print them in the console. I can only display two strings. I don't know why. My string is a combination of a name, space & score. ex: "luke 300". That is the pattern of all strings per line in my text file. I am separating the name and the score using space as the indicator. When ever a space is found, string before and after the space is retrieved and added to the listbox
Here is my
scorelist = New ArrayList
reader1 = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "scores.txt")

I am trying to retrieve a 'tag'(Is it called that?) from an XML webpage. Once I make a post request from my vb.net app it sends a command to my online webserver and redirects me to a page that has entries that change each time. The page that im redirected to that changes each time looks something like this:
<mainpage> <id>hello</id> <random>176</random> </mainpage>
What vb.net code would I use to retrieve the id (In this case 'hello') and store it in a variable.
I'm working on a project that requires me to take values from a CSV file. I've to do further processing with these values and it'd be great if I can have these values in a 2D array.
