Basically I'm writing a program that records all the financial transactions I make. You type in what it is, whether it is going in or out, the date and the price. I will get on to adding the sums up later but that's important at the minute. With one record the program worked perfectly but as soon as I added an array to the records variable it stopped working and complained about a null value.

I'm trying to solve a problem I'm having with writing in a text file using 2 arraysthe first array is the normal text, line by line.g.

im writing the contents of a few arrays to a file using StreamWriter, and am having issues with the syntax of the format function. Tried reading through the help files to no avail, can anyone possibly explain the syntax to me?
View 2 RepliesTo write code to implement data from visual basic into excel. Write a VB.NET program to store the following numbers into an array named �Scores�: 89.5, 76.2, 90, 86, 81, 97, 61, and 73. Your program will calculate an average score, list each of these scores in a new Excel workbook and show whether each score is below or above average. Your program will then save the Excel workbook as TestScores.xlsx.
In column A1 it should say "average" and next to it (in b1) should have the average of all those scores. in the cells below (starting from A3) it should list the scores and the column next to each score it should say whether each score is above average, average, or below average (compared to the average calculated in cell b1)
Even a primer on just reading/writing to a text file would be golden. The array confuses me further, but understanding the data is primary.
Basically, we're writing a program to manage inventory for a bar. Fields and a few lines are below. The delimiter is "||"
So... How do we read the data into the arrays? NAME would be strName(), etc for all of them.

Ok I know this question has been asked to death but I still have not seen a good answer. I have created an application in VS2010 using VB.NET. In my application I have an error log that is an XML file located in the Public gstLocalErrorLogLocation As String = Application.StartupPath & "ErrorLog"that gets written to in the event of an error so I can trouble shoot application easier. My application also downloads files from our FTP site and puts the files in Public gstLocalDownloadLocation As String = Application.StartupPath & "download"So I have files that get read and written to as well and created and deleted all in the Application.StartupPath which is either "c:Program Files(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File)" or "c:Program Files (x86)(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File)" depending on 32bit or 64bit Windows 7.
After creating the setup I install it on my test machine that have both Windows 7 32bit and 64bit.Everything in the application works great till I have to write to, delete or creat a file in those directories above. I know it is an access issue and the UAC. This will get installed on numerous systems so the options I have seen to change file or folder permission on the computers manually is not an option.What has to happen is after I install the application it just works like when you install it on XP. Some post have suggested that you us a user with administrator privilages or group which is all fine and dandy but the user I have used to test the application has all of that.
So what I am asking is how do you create an application with VS2010 in VB.NET that after creating a setup package and installing on Windows 7 will just work with out "Access to the path c:Program Files(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File) is denied." If I have to install this on 100 Windows 7 computers it has to be a concreate no manually doing anything just install and work like when we installed on XP.
i am coding an application where I want to populate an array with the contents of a sequential file that is already populated as salary.txt in the debug folder. Basically, I want to copy the contents of that file to an array so that I may use a code to go with the intSubscript of the array. Right now it functions as just an array for this purpose, but I want to populate the array with the sequential file first. All attempts to do this, with stream writer etc and readline, I am just getting the first item in the file. I have tried to loop it and still only the first is accessable. Driving me batty, turning to the masses for guidence.[code]

View 4 Repliesseeing as '.dat' files contain only what you want them to and there is no preset encryption for them etc could I write data to one by using this simple process:
1) Change file extension to '.txt'
2) Decrypt
3) Write
4) Encrypt
5) Change file extension to '.dat'
and pretty much the same for reading it. or am I thinking to simply?
I thought of the above way as i know how to write to text files already, but is this the best way to do it? or is there a better way?
EDIT: Nevermind you just write to it like a text file and encrypt/decrypt it. request lock/delete from mod.
I am trying to create a bunch of records, there will be a limited number of "Codes", about 50. Each "Code" is associated with a name from a textbox, I was trying to have it save each one when you click a button, to a .txt file.So, from the start the record will be blank, the person will go through the form, choose a number from a numerical up and down box, pick a name associated with it (both of these are mandatory and not implied). When they click the button, it will save the contents I talked about into a .txt file, say the number is #2, and the name is "Bob", the next time they try to change that value for #2, it will overwrite "Bob".

I'm writing a system with several programs, each of which will start off with a number of 'run time parameters' which will be stored in what I call 'personality files'. Each file will have about 10 elements ( file locations, logo files, dates, numbers , text strings ). I"m starting by building little programs which maintain ( build and modify ) the personality files. To begin the first one, I"m only reading/writing 3-4 strings ( I"ll graduate to dates and numbers later )When I run the program below, I get " The process cannot access the file 'c:yyyyyyyy.zzz' because it is being used by another process. ". I also get"A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.IOException' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll "
I get these errors even though I've done the usual stuff like deleting other versions of the test file, cancelling other processes which might be involved, and so on.

So my two questions are, what is the most effeicent means of reading and writing a file and in what format should the file be in? When I say effeicent I mean, what utilizes the least amount of memory during the process, is fast, and disposable.
Example: XML, Text, something else. StreamReader / StreamWriter or what ever.

I am witting an app that will generate batch files to do an unattended installation of a share point 2007 farm. I already have a batch file I use and it's pretty big. I copied and pasted the content into my application, and I'm using the System.IO.StreamWriter to write to the batch file from the winform. [code]As you can probably guess, I'm doing all of this in my mainform code window. There are maybe 3 or 4 batch files that will be generated based on the selections made on the form. For example, I'm generating a batch file to create the OU, Group and service accounts the farm will use in active directory, I'm creating a batch file for all of the variables that will be used for the additional batch files created, etc. How can I split this up? is there a way to create the batch files without having to actually copy, paste my existing batch file content into the mainform code window? I'm using file.writeline on each line of the pasted content by the way.
