I have a text file containing lines of data (File 1). I need to delete all the lines in another text file (File 2), which are found in file 1.So I could read file 2 line by line. And then once the line has been read, read file 1 line by line to search for a match. But that's going to be painfully slow.Or I could read file 2 into memory. And then read file 1 line by line and REPLACE the lines in file 2 with nothing, therefore deleting them. File 2 could be 100 mb, so I'm not sure about reading it all into memory.

I've seen posts on deleting the lines from a text file that are specified as a function parameter, but I only need to delete the first and last lines from the file.
I'm still a newbie when it comes to working in files, but it seems that it should be simple to delete the first line... Just delete all text from BOF to the first CrLf character. Am I right?
As for the last line, I understand that I'll have to get a count of the lines in the text file to find it (as the file won't always be x amount of lines long).

Is there a way to see how many lines are in a text file? This also includes blank lines. I have seen a lot of code in this forum before related to my question, but they stop if there is a blank line. I want it to be so that if there are like 10 blank lines

Basically, every time an entry is made - all of the proper data gets put out to a central Listings.txt file and then a specific .txt file for that area. When the user enters the recall form, they can view the listings for all or whichever area they've selected. That works quite fine. However! We also need to include a summary of how many are in each section. Not thinking properly, I started to do this with a counter - until I realized that a counter will lose its value once the program shuts down. My current idea is to count the number of lines in the text file (it outputs 8 lines per listing, so everything would be in values of 8) and then divide that by 8 - but after some searching I haven't been able to find a piece of code that will allow me to get an integer that relates to the amount of individual lines in the file.

Im making a text based game that i need to randomly select different numbers of lines from a text file then pass them to a list box.[code]...
First the code needes to identify the 4th element then randomly select lines from lines that contain that element. The code needs to work out how many lines have a matching text to the 4th array then randomly select lines from that total no need for a maximum limit to that number.The same line must only been show the once at a time, but It can then be shown again on a different button click.[code]...

As you will see from the code below I need to be able to tell before the array runs how many members of the array there are or else the program will crash. How can I redim the array depending on how many lines are in the text file (RECORDS.txt)

I have a RichTextBox.
I want to input an integer and the RichTextBox to go to that line and delete all lines above it.
For example, if I have 100 lines in the RTB, and I specify "25" as the integer, I want lines 1-25 deleted and for the RTB to keep 26-100.

I am working on a program with a list box that displays text from a selected text file. I have already made it to delete the item from the listbox but I don't know how to get it to delete that same line from the text file so it doesn't just display it again when you reopen the dialog. Any help? I am using streamwriter and streamreader.

I have a routine that will check a text file for a line to be deleted and deletes it when found. Now the problem i have found is that the lines can be slightly different depending on what the user has done. Now in the TXTSETUP.SIF which is a file in the Windows Source you have the following lines FIG 1. FIG 1: It may look like this: ascent.jpg = 1,,,,,,,,3,3autumn.jpg = 1,,,,,,,,3,3

I'm new here, but have been in and out for a while. Past threads have been helping me along thus far.
I'm currently developing an app which essentially needs a way for me to search in a text box or file for a specific string, and extract the line on which that string appears on. It will be unique, and the syntax is the same on each line. It has basically 2 ID numbers, and is laid out like this:
123456|123456
So, I'd need to search for the first part before the |, and then get the line so I can get the bit after the |, which is the important bit for me.

I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..
Dim ary() As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:MenuFiles.txt") Then
[code]....
The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.

I am trying to display the content of the text box according the number of records in the database. When i do it manually it works but when i do it through the "for" loop i am confused. my code is as below
For i = 0 To total_rec
fname1.Text = ds.Tables("roster").Rows(total_rec).Item("FirstName")
lname1.Text = ds.Tables("roster").Rows(total_rec).Item("LastName")
Next
Now i want to change the index of "fname1" some thing like "fname(total_rec)" but it does not work
