What I am trying to do may be better for use with SQL Server but I have seen many applications in the past that simply work on text files and I am wanting to try to imitate the same behaviour that those applications follow. I have a list of URL's in a text file. This is simple enough to open and read line by line, but how can I store additional data from the file and query the data?
E.g. Text File: link1 - 0 link2 - 0 link3 - 1 link4 - 0 link5 - 1
Then I will read the data with: Private Sub ButtonX2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ButtonX2.Click OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "*txt Text Files|*.txt" If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then Dim AllText As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(OpenFileDialog1.FileName) Dim Lines() = Split(AllText, vbCrLf) [Code] ..... Am I going completely the wrong way about storing the data after importing from a text file?
I have a problem with reading data from a textfile called RESORT.TXT
Barb Allen 604 777 1234 2008/12/01 2 3 1 3 D
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 want to import my data, which I receive over USB (every second), to an Excel sheet. Thing is, I want to open only one Excel file and write everything to this one file, and by pressing a "STOP" button, data reception will be canceled and data in the Excel file should be saved and Excel file should close right after that. Here my code,
Dim excel_cnt as Integer<br/>Dim sv_var as Integer = 0<br/><br/>Sub write_to_excel() Dim xl As New Excel.Application
I'm trying to access a device with modbus in VB or C#. I've been searching all over for a simple way to do it. I know that It would be connecting through a TCP Connection, and I know the address of the device. I need to read the input on it (whether of not it's on), and to toggle the relay on it as well.
I am developing a software that will monitor/poll serveral Modbus/TCP devices on a network.
I have managed to connect to one device using VB.Does anyone know of a driver or perhaps a 3rd party software I could use that will enable me to connect to more than one Modbus/TCP device?
i m working on an application which communicates with PLC machine using Modbus protocol. Now i m able to generate and communicate a modbus data frame with PLC the only problem that i m facing is that in all the data frames of modbus the last ascii characters should be Carriage return + Line feed which should be read by the PLC as 0D 0A that is in Hexadecimal form. But i m not able to do this. The rest entire string is properly read by the PLC but How do I make it read the CR+LF.
I'm currently working on a project where I am transmitting data from a comm device via the serial port and resorting the raw data (in binary) to its respective ascii values. The problem I'm facing is determining the most efficient method to accomplish my goal. Essentially, I have 68 bytes coming in, the first and second bytes represent the page and packet number and the data itself ranges from 3 to 64, the remaining for my checksum.
What I am needing to do is, grab 50 consecutive bytes per variable in my array, and that is where I'm confused. I have easily pulled my 3-64 bytes and stored that data to a string. I just don't know the most efficient method to accomplish my goal. Should I write directly to file all my data, as there are like 8 pages, of 128 packet data. [Code] I can capture the the first 50 by using a for-loop easily, but what would be the preferred method to track what data chunk I've taken? The more I think about it, I think I may just want to write to file, all my data, and then just take them back to back in 50 byte chunks. Is that the most efficient method?
I want to reading in a excel file and extract the sCodenumber sDescription ans the sStatus and store them in a array : StatusComposeArray(5200) As MyCompose. After this I need this array for comparing outside this class. But as can you see the array is defined inside the sub: ReadingIn_ExcelFilesCompose [Code]
I have an application that uses Dataset.WriteXML to create a small backup before data is syncronized to a data store (less than a meg).This application has worked well for 5 years now, and all of a sudden with the installation of XML 6.0 SP2 the XML document is not working correctly.I have multiple tables within a Dataset (Company, Contact, Notes, etc...)When WriteXML is called, the first table should be Company, however, the first table is being named Contact with the Company Data in it. The Notes table is being called Contact and so forth. In other words it's not giving the correct names to the tables in the XML File.This appears to be a bug, which is causing great distress on all the companies who have been using this program.
What I want to happen is that the button from my system will remove the previous data from database and then insert new data to database from text file. Im done with inserting new data. The thing is that I dont how to control or where to put the Delete Command from my code.
Data binding should be an extremely simple thing to manage but I can't find a SIMPLE solution to the following problem.
I have two forms
Form1 contains a 4x4 MSFlexGrid (unfortunately an unmanaged COM object but I can merge cells, which I can't do with a managed Datagrid)
Form2 contains other controls which change the data in the Flexgrid.
I connect the two with a Public 4x4 array. Form2 changes the data in this array. I can update the grid data by reading the array. But how do I bind the Grid to the array so that it auto-updates - which is the whole point of binding isn't it?
I am reading data from a socket (as bytes) and storing this data in a string. Then later i need to access specific bytes within the string and do some math with them. However the bytes that I read back from the string are not what I am expecting.
What I'm working on now is a basic telephone directory.a Directory text file contains the names of all of the subdirectories.The subdirectory files contain the names and numbers of all of the students/employees etc.Anyways. I've actually completed the program itself I just need to get the output formatted properly.Which leaves me with my problem. I want to output the data to some sort of grid. I'm going to assume DGV since it allows my to name columns(the column headings are simple: Name and Phone number)However, I cannot figure out how to take data from a textfile and throw it into the DGV. I know how to do it for a listbox, But I don't want a listbox since it isn't a grid. is there any way I can read my textfile data into an array and then iterate the data and output to the datagrid?
I've made a browser project and beyond making it a default browser, I am having a problem with the Favorites feature TreeView control saving, loading and repopulating it with the users data. It's tough finding the correct code as there are so many variations of this control in various languages, but I did find sample code for loading and populating the TreeView with a text file using tabs to signify the node structure in VB.Net. (Most others I have found are VB6 or some other variation.)
I have a usb instrument and a driver who's printed output dumps a data string to the computer I need to be able to read this string into vba The driver manual provides the content of the string but no info on how to access the data.
I've created a custom USB device using a PIC18F4550 and I'm having trouble with reading information from the device. The device sends reports without a request from the application as 64 bytes. I'm relatively new to VB and this is my first foray into USB as well... It's not going good. I've set the Vendor ID to Hex 1234 and the Hardware ID to Hex 0001. I've used different libraries and the timer to check for incoming reports, but I can't seem to figure it out. I've waded through pages of USB Complete and all kinds of code for mice and barcode scanners, but nothing so far that will do anything for my device.. how I can register the device and get the raw report from the device and display it in a text box
I have a sim card reader, that is a usb-to serial device. It has a sim card inserted. what i need to do is access that sim card to get the data, phonebook and sms for example. I CAN connect to the reader but i cannot send any commands or recieve any data.
What are the commands i could use to access data held on the device. The chipset is pl-2303
What is the best way to go about retrieving data from a proprietary hardware device that interfaces via HID USB? The particular device I need the data from is a blood-pressure/heartbeat measurement & monitoring device.The hardware came with software that downloads the data from the device and places that data into a (passworded/encrypted) MS Access database that I cannot connect to using programmatic methods, at least not without having the (admin's) password. The software provided produces reports, but the formatting renders them virtually useless (well, completely useless) for the needs of our company.
The device manufacturer provides to it's customers no API or any other technical information for accessing the data produced by their product; so, this pretty much leaves me stuck trying to figure out how to obtain the data via custom application in order to reclaim the initial justification for the expense associated with the hardware, which by the way has already been purchased.I don't need code snippits specifically, though examples would be nice; what I really need is to know is how to best approach this project, from a general design and programming stand-point.
[code] I'm trying to load a textfile with (formatted, mostly tab delimited) data, into an arrayList.To manipulate and extract certain data I was able to search through the arrayList and retrieve the needed data.This is what's not working: If I have found my needed data in certain places from the arrayList, I would like to split this to read the needed values. Trying to do this I constantly get string cannot be converted to 1-dimensional array of string errors. [code]
I am looking for ways to retrieve data from textfile and save it into access database. Currently, I am doing a attendance record project. I need to save the attendance record which is given in a text file to the database. The version of VB i using is VB 2008.
The content of the text file look like this: E010,2009/06,06/29/2009 7:44:45AM,06/29/2009 15:00:55PM,JUR E022,2009/06,06/29/2009 7:44:45AM,06/29/2009 15:00:55PM,JUR
[Code]....
I tried to create a class and store the record but it just don't work.
