I have a text file that is going to store some data in this current project. Instead of having it stored on a location on the PC (like C:Test.txt) - I wanted it to be a .txt resource of the application.Using a streamwriter isn't working when I'm attempting to write to the file. This following code runs without error however when I exit the application and look at the text resource file it remains blank instead of showing "Testing".
Dim Writer As New System.IO.StreamWriter(My.Resource.TXTRESOURCE)
Writer.WriteLine("Testing")
Writer.close()
I would like to know how to write to a text file that is added to resources and then have it show the contents in a text box.But I would like to have it on a timer so every second it will refresh as I am trying to make an instant chat program.Also I would like to note that I want it to delete everything after all the users have closed the program. Is there any way to make it so the text file is empty when there is no body using the program any more?

I want to write a human resource programme that can accept employee records and compute for their salaries and overtime and also print out the needed salary slips and reports.
Write a program that requests a color as input in a text box and then determines whether or not the color is in the text file. The program should use the Boolean-valued Function procedure IsCrayola that returns the value True if the color in the text box is a Crayola color.
I am very new to coding, though I can understand some of the rreeaallllyy basic stuff. However, I am currently developing a basic webbrowser and I'm stuck =. How do I take text, i.e. a TextBox's text, and save it as a string resource, but I do not want it to have that text as a name, as it can change. I want to store the URL as a string called "Home" but still have it's properties as the URL. I would also like to be able to recall it for when the program loads.
I'm trying to write an application that requires information to be saved once the application has been exited. In order to do this I have been experimenting with storing the data in text files. More specifically I've been looking into adding text files as application resources. I am using VB Express 2008 and added the text file resource through the application tab>>Resources>>Add Resource>>Add new text file. I am able to use my.resources.TextFile1 to read the text file but I am unable to write anything to it. I have tried using my.resources.TextFile1.replace and .insert but neither of those are working out. I was thinking there is maybe a read only setting somewhere, but I have not been able to find any information on this issue.
I'm writing a VB.NET app where I want to load an internal text file from Resource. But the code shows Invalid URI: The Uri string is too long. The code is 'document.Load("C:UsersSouDocumentsVisual Studio 2010Projectsinfo.xml") document.Load(My.Resources.info) 'some processing job with XML node ... So, how to load the resource file ?
All right, here's my issue. I have a resource that is a text file. I'm trying to use a StreamWriter to edit it. I've done it in C# but can't find my example files.
Im having problems with one section. I have imported 4 text files that have lists of computers in them, and i want to read the computer names into an array so i can use them from there. I have the attribute in them set as embedded Resource as well. So if anyone could check this code and see what is wrong or right, and how i can read the file into the array that is established that would be awesome.... Ill be researching this non stop untill i figure it out, but thought someone on here might have an idea

I need to refer to some strings using an "indirect string" in the registry. It should be in this form:

MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.
how to access the text file that I added to the project as a resource file. I want a list of words to be part of the .exe file, not contained in a separate .txt file on the hard drive.What do I need to change?
vbcode Dim reader1 As New System.IO.StreamReader("c:1.txt") For i As Integer = 0 To 25 BlanksOne(i) = reader1.ReadLine() Next i
So there's lots of examples of how to do this if your text file happens to be in XML format. However, my text file is not in XML format and as it contains over 172,000 rows I'm not that keen on adapting it (it's a dictionary)! The text file has been included in the project as a resource. So far I've got a DataGridView (could use a DataRepeater if easier?), a BindingSource and a DataSet.
The DataSet has a DataTable already defined in the designer with one column.I've managed to load the text file into a String and then create a StringReader based on that String variable, however I cannot find anyway of loading those strings into the DataTable.
Dim listWords As String = My.Resources.WordList Dim strReader As New System.IO.StringReader(listWords) 'What now???There are some examples of using OleDb functionality but all assume you're loading from a text file residing somewhere in the filesystem, not a project resource.(I'm also assuming that on building the application the resources get embedded (somewhere) rather than being accessed from [AppDir]/Resources/[filename] ??)
i wanted to make a pinging program that could send pings to websites, i have all the code written, i just cant get it to display what is going into the cmd in a text box.... The reason i am having trouble with this is because the code says " output = (process.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd)" it will only display it in the text box AFTER the code has finished....
I am writing an application in VB .NET which calls external executables (written in C++)and passes them some command line arguments. What I need to do is read back their stdout outputs inealtime , i.e. as they run.I am currently using the ProcessStartInfo class and setting the RedirectStandardOutput property to true and reading it back in from a StreamReader. However, I cannot read this back in realtime. Once the process finishes, the StreamReader will allow me to
I'm currently working with a project where I need to transfer the internal audio (sound from the computer) to another computer and play it back there.
I thought of transferring the audio with a TCP server-client connection since I already have the knowledge of how to do that.
My problem now is that I don't know how I would capture the internal audio and how to be able to play it back as a stream on the target computer. I have searched a bit and many people recommend using MCI but I'm not sure if this will work on an "almost realtime audio stream" connection.
So my question is: What is the best way to grab the audio from the computer and then play back the data on another computer (as a stream)? I want to do it in realtime and not "recording" the sound and then send it to the target computer.
i am trying to make a simple scripter. my scripter has a Run button to run the written scripts in a RichTextBox.But in new version of my program i want to make a RealTime run scripter, So don't need to a run button and scripts should process when user type in richtexbox. a way that i had used in my program is this :
On Error Resume Next FileOpen(1, "c:windowsmagico(test).txt", OpenMode.Output) PrintLine(1, frmMain.page_script.txtScript.Text)
I have hit a brick wall with my latest project.In essence the entire tab control is created on the fly, i have successfully added any number of tabs with the tabpage title being filled correctly. my problem however is when i add the content itself to the correct page, i have no item displayed on any tabs and however i can retrieve the contents and change them with code.
My code takes a pricelist xml file from my works website and my code is supposed to allow this content to be edited and returned to the server with adjusted prices to reflect updates in our costing. All the code works except the part to display the data, and consequently the code to use this data to update the array used for the xml while the program is running is not written.
I am creating a basic programme in VB as a piece of coursework. Most is going fine however I am having problems saving text to a text file. Let me start by saying I know how to save the text to a text file, but I cannot save it how I want to. as you will see from the code below currently it saves to a file called OrderInfo.txt on the D: drive (which works fine).
However as I will be submitting the code via its VB state (i.e. just in the test mode and not published as an exe or anything) I want the file to save in folder \Assignement\Orders\OrderInfo.txt. I dont want it to be drive specific as I dot know where the lecturer will decide to put the file so it may be on D;, E: C:\Documents and settings etc....
Is there a way I can set it so that it will just look in the local folder where the VB is being run from much like you can with html? So instead of assigning a letter I can just type \Orders\OrderInfo.txt.
Private Sub cmdConfirm_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdConfirm.Click frmSummary.iOrderNo = frmSummary.iOrderNo + 1 Dim FILE_NAME As String = "D:\OrderInfo.txt"
You can easily get the memory usage of the current process using workingset64 However I could not find any event like OnMemUsageChanged so I can display a little mem usage meter that displays live/real time the mem usage value. Updating in a timer every second can be done but looks inefficient. Is there anyway I can get an event or callback every time the mem usage changes ?
Is there a way to detect whether the value the user is entering using keypress method is within the lower and upper limits?For example, the lower limit is 30 and the upper limit is 112 and the current value the user enter is 33 so the next digit is not allowable because it will exceed the upper limit. On the other hand if the user's current value is 11 the next allowable digit is either 0 or 1 but not above I am current using the below method to allow only numbers. Can i expand this code to meet the above requirement?
If Not "1234567890".Contains(Char.ToUpper(e.KeyChar)) AndAlso e.KeyChar <> vbBack Then e.Handled = True 'When a wrong value is Entered End If

This is my first post in the community. I am putting together a program that serves two functions:1. Takes input from TextBoxes and writes it to a text file.2. Takes the text from the text file and displays two specific strings of text in a MessageBox.This is the code for the button that writes the input to file.

When using .write method the string will be stored at the end of the text file. Is there a method that adds them on top? If not, how can I get this done without using too much memory and processor time?
