Building A Class For Writing A XML File?
Jan 23, 2011
OK I am as green as they come and just want to write a simple app that when it starts loads data into a few fields from the previous use.
I am thinking of using an XML file written to disk to hold this info, (I am open to any suggestions how to do this as simple as possible)
so I am going through the "Wrox VB2010 for beginners" and entering the code to create a class and apparently the compiler doesnt like something about saving stream as a string: It says "Value of type 'System.IO.FileStream' cannot be converted to 'String"
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Xml.Serialization
Public Class sdata

I have an issue with StreamWriter class. Basically, in an application running as a web service, I need to write info into a log file. When I send 2 web service calls simultaneously, the entries created in the log file are not correctly written. For example,
in call #1, ID 1 - xyz is to be written to the log file. In call #2, ID 2 - abc is to be written. When I viewed the log, it shows ID 1 - xyz & ID 1- abc. Looks like there's some memory data being shared and mixed together, even though it's totally 2 separate web service calls. From my understanding, each call (i.e. each will be process under a different application instance) should have its own set of memory allocation for data processing... If I am to make this application as a Console Application, it looks like everything is processed correctly.

I am trying to create a class whose end result is do create an XML document. Currently the class consists of nested classes that each build a section of the XML document. What I am hung up on is how I should tie the results of the inner classes for the final output.Should the outer class pass an instance of XmlTextWriter to each of the inner classes that build up specific sections or should each innerclass just output a string representation of the XML and the outer class can piece them together?
[code]...
The code is not complete but I hope it gives an idea of what I am trying to accomplish. I need to find a way to gather XML sections together to output as a single document.

I'm designing a small GUI Windows program that allow staff at a cinema to reserve seats for customers. There will be a total of 60 seats in the cinema. I have two classes in my program:-
1.) MainForm.vb - used for I/O actions and user interaction
2.) SeatManager.vb - used to hold and handle the background methods and functions that make the program work
Here is the code for my MainForm.vb class thusfar:-
Public Class MainForm
Private Const m_totalNumberOfSeats As Integer = 60
Private m_seatManager As SeatManager
[Code]....
Basically, when the program opens, the lstReservations list in the MainForm class will be populated with a total of 60 (m_totalNumberOfSeats) entries to represent 60 seats. Each of these seats will contain the index number from the array m_nameList; this index number (+1) will represent the seat number and then in the lstReservations list, after the seat number, I'd like it to contain the respective entry from the m_nameList array. As all entries will be held in RAM, when the GUI is opened, all m_nameList array entries will be empty. As the user uses the program, they can highlight a row in the lstReservations list and then use the GUI textboxes to enter the customer's name which will then be populated into the respective array entry.
how to, when the GUI opens, ensure that the lstReservations list takes all of the blank entries from the m_nameList array and from there, I can highlight a row to carry out further methods on?

If we say blue is the default colour of the Backcolor property I understand it as if you don't specify a colour for Backcolor blue will be its colour. But I could not make sense of default property of a class in the context of building a custom user control. After calling an instance of a class we have to either call one of its members or assign an other object for it. Therefore why should there be a default property?

OK, so its many years since I last did anything with VB5 and I now have a requirement to write code in VB2010uld like to put together a proof of concept for a project I am involved in.A lot of our coding exists as VBScript, but I need to add some functionality that VBScript does not offer, and the obvious path is to create a .NET DLL that can be called from VBscript. What I want to be able to demonstrate is the ability to edit a hex character at offset 15 from the beginning in a file not exceeding 2000 bytes. The filename of the target file will be passed from VBScript.
So from a vbscript perspective I would be coding something like:
dim‚myObj, filepath, decval, offset
filepath = "c: emp estfile.bin"

I recently found this code (provided for third party use on another VB site), however,ll of my attempts to insert it into a class library have failed.I open a new class library and past the code in, and immediately get several errors pertaining to how certain objects can't be found. I find it it is crucial to use this code, unless someone can suggest to me another example of existing code that will do the same thing: make a restricted textbox who imputs can be restricted, that can handle pasting, shortcuts, text property setting, and script-entered text.

I'm not sure I used the right lingo in the subject header. But, here's what I want to do. Let's say I have a class with some variables:
Class XYZ
Public InfoNo1 As Integer
Public InfoStr1 As String = " ".PadRight(200) 'Hahaha
Public InfoStr2 As String = " ".PadRight(100)
End Class
I've been looking around for examples of writing methods that act on variables defined within the class. What I want to do is make it so that doing something like this:
[Code]...
I don't need to know how to write the method, I think I can do that. I need to now how to make the method cause a ".Fixed" option to be added to the class string variables so that assigning a string using that method will cause the variable itself to be equal to the string plus the padding.

I need to create an HTML email that consists of four tables. My idea is to create four different datareader or datatables and pass them to a class that converts them to HTML. Please help me get started.I've done this before by creating a stringbuilder then appending text to it and then sending it as an html email. but, now I want to build a class so I don't have to do it the long way all the time?

I am creating XML files by combining 3 text files; Header contains the start of the XML file, Body contains a repeating section of XML with placeholders that will be replaced for each entry in the database and Footer contains the end of the XML file.Currently I am using Stream writer to create the XML file, the problem comes when the data I am adding in the body section contains reservered characters e.g. > < & etc as the XML will break.Is there a better way? The XMLWriter examples I have seen seem to start from the premise of a complete XML document, which I don't have.

Where to begin trying to research building a program that can inventory a program and then build a spreadsheet where I can name tabs based on directory names and then color them according to their level in the directory tree. The number of directories and/or total number of files shouldn't be a limiting factor if possible. I would also like all subdirectories to be after the tab for their parent directory.

I am building a program that strips out certain keywords from a much larger file. I am using code that .paul. provided in a different post, but I can't get it to work correctly. Here is the code that I am using: [code] Basically, the first match will appear in textbox2, but no other matches appear after that. I put a breakpoint at the For Each loop and checked out the locals. I am showing 2,502 matches for the variable "match." I just now put another breakpoint in there and I can see that it is stepping, but nothing is recorded.In the archive is a file named debout.txt. This file should be used for the testing.

I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?

I am attempting to gather a group of file names from a directory. I am able to do this. I tested the code by having the list populate into a listbox and all desired items were added to the list.
Here is my code:
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(strPath)
Dim dir1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.txt")
Dim dFiles As IO.FileInfo
ListBox.Items.Add(dFiles)
However, a listbox is not my desired output. I am attempting to write these file names to a text file for purposes of then parsing the information to a datatable to compare with another datatable. How to get my filenames written to a textfile.

I am working on a program using VB.Net 2010 which will enable me to setup groups of files & folders for back up with syncing capabilities etc. I have a concept program which is based on some sample code I found out in one of the VB.Net forums. I have modified it from a command line based program to a form based program. At the moment I consider this code to be a "concept" program which once I have the various copy/sync routines developed and debugged will be integrated in to another program I wrote for
creating "Back Up" groups to automate the process. There are some 3rd party programs that do similar things that I want to do such as Microsofts Sync Toy, but none of them offer the grouping and exclusions options that I am going to program in to this backup/sync program.
So here is my problem, I have the included code taking two folders, a source and a destination, and copying everything from the source to the destination. It will skip over any unchanged files/folders and will delete anything found in the destination folder that is not found in the source folder and it will update all files in the destination folder that have a newer version in the source folder. In other words it will mirror image the source to the destination but will be smart enough not to copy unchanged items from the source to the destination thereby saving a lot of time. The sync part of the program is working fine, the displaying of the progress and results is not.

I followed the textbook provided but when the file saves, I open it up and it is blank. I'm using fileWriter.WriteLine and I'm just test something basic to write to a file first and I can't do it:
Code:
Private Sub storeFileButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles storeFileButton.Click
'creates a new file
