Im working on a somewhat major program for my work. Just in short, im reading in a text file but i then want it to break the text file into blocks. I will put a quick snip of it here:
(11/64"*DRILL*FOR*10-24*TAPPED*HOLES)
N7G91G30Z0.0M19
G90T7
[Code].....
So i figured id see what the pros could tell me. I have a couple good links, one for a regex cheat sheet but i just dont have a very good understanding of regex.
I need to parse a CSV file with blocks of text being processed in different ways according to certain rules, e.g.
userone,columnone,columntwo
userthirteen,columnone,columntwo
usertwenty,columnone,columntwo
customerone,columnone<br>
customertwo,columntwo<br>

My text file is a settings file and I know I will be adding more to it in the future, right now it reads "autoplay=false;mintray=false;"I am currently using probably the most inefficient way to check both of those settings:
if contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=false;" then
elseif contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=true;" then
elseif contents = "autoplay=true;mintray=false;" true
elseif contents = "autoplay=true;mintray=true;"
endif
How can I read the file, find each word from the equals sign to the semicolon, and store each of them in a variable identified by the text before the equals sign? Something like this:
contents = "autoplay=false;mintray=false;"
autoplay = "false"
mintray = "false"
Also, how can I edit the settings in the text file without having to overwrite everything every time I save to it? For instance; finding mintray in the text file, and changing mintray to true instead of overwriting the file with "autoplay=false;mintray=true;".
This is my current
Reading
Dim fs As New FileStream("C:myfile.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim d As New StreamReader(fs)

I have basic text report (.txt) that is created by a custom application. My client would like it to page break at a certain spot.
Does anyone have a routine that would allow me to insert PCL code into the file so that when printed it page breaks? I'd search for certain text and then insert the codes just prior to the text.
Certainly if someone has a better "mousetrap" then let me know.
I am saving several strings to a text file, and want to create a line break between each one, at the moment it looks like this:
string1string2string3.....
But want it to look like this:
string1

Using Visual Studio 2005 (vb.net) (windows forms) on Windows XP, I have a standard Microsoft TabControl.A button click adds/removes an image from 1 of the Tabs.Seems like the image is placed OVER my tab's text, making it unreadable.Why isn't it like it should be: Image on the left. Followed by text on the right.Why is the image being placed OVER my tab's text? Do I need to do some kind of "refresh" or "redraw" before it will appear as it should? I don't see any way to "make the image appear on the left edge of the tab". (NOT the tab-page.) ... and then place the text just to the right of the image. (Just like a normal image+text tab can do.)The code is pretty simple, it just gets an image from my ImageList: cfgTab.ImageKey = "PadLockClosed.png"' Show CLOSED PadLockThe tab's text changes from: This is my tab text to: T(IMAGE HERE)is my tab text The image appears OVER the beginning of my text. But if I move to another tab, then move back, the image appears in the correct position:(IMAGE HERE) This is my tab text
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with combobox. I set the DrawMode into OwnerDrawVariable so I can draw items seperately with styles, but the characters of the items are now displaying blocks. The block characters are none ASCII. It used to display well but not now and I don't know what caused it to happen. I didn't change my system locale. At the same time, other combobox that have Normal DrawMode displays nicely fine.
My custom drawing code:
e.Graphics.DrawString(combo.Items(e.Index), combo.Font, b2, rect.X, rect.Y)
I'm developing an app for WP7 and Win7 that will get info extracted directly from particular websites. The app will download the HTML source and parse through it to find the required strings. The strings may not have tags. note multiple instances of the string needs to be found. I've tried a few very rudimentary ways, and although they work, they are extremely slow.

I'm not getting this at all I suppose. I've tried so many variations to split the lines into individual fields and I still cannot get it to do what I want.
I have to get lines from a sequential file which read like:
CODE:
And load them to a listbox like this:
CODE:
With the ID # padleft(10, "0") and the commas eliminated, and only the Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial showing.
This is my mess of a code (it is just one of many variations)

I've got the ID field right but the rest just shows up as it is in the file commas and all.
-new Dell laptop without a Break key.
-VB6 and VS2008 IDEs use Ctrl+Break to pause execution for debugging.
-I need a way to map another key combination to trigger a Ctrl+Break
My setup may make this easier or harder but to be clear I am running Kubuntu 9.10 (latest stable) and WinXP in a VirtualBox VM. Obviously all VB6/VS2008 dev is taking place in the virtual machine.So maybe it's possible to have the linux host send through Ctrl+Break based on a key mapping, or maybe it's possible to remap directly in WinXP. I'd settle for any solution as atm I need to use the XP On-Screen keyboard to send a Ctrl+Break.
I need to add line break after the following in the textbox.
txtBody.Value = "Dear " & Trim(tblProperty(0).Item("Contact")) & ","
I've tried so far 'ControlChars.CrLf', ..., 'vbNewLine', 'vbCrLf', ... at the end.
basically i am doing something like:
vb
TextRenderer.DrawText(g, mc_Text, MyBase.Font, New Rectangle(Padding.Left, Padding.Top, MyBase.Width), MyBase.ForeColor, TextFormatFlags.WordBreak)
And want to get an array of lines where the text breaks with since TextFormatFlags.WordBreak has been set
I have text files with X Y Z data. There are three columns, one each for X, Y and Z and the files are tab delimited.The value of X is constant over a (repeating) range of Y. Z is the dependent variable.
For example:
0 1 44
0 2 32
0 3 22
[code]....
I need something to take this file and break into multiple tab-delimited columns. In the output, I would like the initial range of Y to be the first column (ie 1 to 4). Then, the second column should have the Z values for that domain (X=0 in above example). Then, the next column should have the Z values for the next domain of Y (i.e. 1 to 4 again, but now for X=5 in above example) and so on. Also, I'd like the first line value in each of the new columns containing Z values to be the X-value they were originally associated with.Thus, I'd like the output file to look like
Y 0 5 9
1 44 66 51
2 32 11 72

View 12 RepliesI am working on a project that requires that I use nested case blocks. However, I am not quite sure what this looks like. And for whatever reason I'm having a hell of a time trying to find the answer through google. Are nested case blocks like nested if blocks? Or are they something completely different? More information on the project can be given if needed.

So you know how when you call "Form.ShowDialog" from where ever you call it, it blocks until the form being displayed closes. And then the function returns whatever result it was.I want to know how to block like, but without a form, yet still have the "main ui thread".Basically I have this long process that needs to thread out and do several things... and it's heavily event based. It jumps between two threads, the main ui thread, and it's own background thread. The main ui thread needs to have access so that I can randomly open different dialog boxes for things... sometimes they're just windows asking to hit OK or Cancel to continue, others it's to perform some action, etc etc.
But there is NO central form related to it. It's a complete background thread running that randomly hops over to the main ui thread for things.Right now I have this class I designed called lets say "DoJobProcessor". On it is a function called "BeginDoJob" that threads off from the thread pool... when ever I need to jump back I use a ManualResetEvent to block on the background thread, jump over to to the main thread with "invoke" and passing a reference to the MRE, then release the block when done there and continue on on this background thread.
All while this is going on I just set the form I'm trying to block the main ui thread from managing by just setting its Enabled property false.It all feels just messy and annoying... and I was just writing something using ShowDialog and I was like... HEY, what if I could block this BeginDoJob method, hi-jack the main ui thread, then let that function return the result when done instead of having this "Complete" event with the return value in it. It's obviously possible because ShowDialog does it, but I don't know how.
This way the job I'm performing isn't always waiting for the main ui thread, instead its the other way around... the ui thread waiting for it, the way it aught to be. Show something, branch off do some stuff and just idle the display while it does it, come back show something else, branch off and just idle while it does that.
i want to create an application for inserting blocks from vb into cad,

What is the convention in VB when a sub requires that a try/catch block succeed in order to function, but the catch block doesn't bubble the exception up?
I could put all of the code into the try block, but this seems messy since most of it doesn't need to be tried, it just needs the try to have succeeded.
For example, should the catch block exit the sub? This would work in my current situation, and if it is the proper procedure, let me know, but what about the more general scenario where both both success and failure require additional processing?
I am using a WebBrowser to load a webpage. In that page, there are several links. When clicking on one, it opens and then immediately closes. IE7's popup blocker is set to allow all from this site, nor does it work even if the popup blocker is completely disabled. I have no other blocker running.
how I can make these windows stay open?

I just did some analysis by using a global function which is called GetCallingMethod in my case.
Mostly it works great. But some cases the application is blocked. It is blocked when closing the application. When going to "pause" in Visual Studio, it stays on the new StackTrace line forever.
In my application I am using third party references, multithreading and several classes. But all that should not be a problem and should not lock the tracer class as far as I imagine. I am using Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate in this case.
This line will never be left in development area. Application will is frozen. Try/Catch will not force the procedure.
I have a windows form that imports data from an xls file to sql2005. I have a browser button, a dropdown list for the sheet names in excel and a process button. Now the excel file has 3 sheets (sheet1, sheet2, sheet3) the columns and data type are not the same so I need 3 different queries to access this file,
I think about CASE, but not very sure,
So if dropdown list.selectedvalue=sheet1 then

While running an application in the IDE, the program properly handles Try/Catch/End Try blocks. This works fine for the most part, but is it possible to have errors generated in these blocks stop execution at the line with an error on encountering an error?
