Different Characters Reading A Webpage As String?
Dec 12, 2011I done this:
sTxt = File.ReadAllText("C:someWebPage.html")
I done this:
sTxt = File.ReadAllText("C:someWebPage.html")
fI am reading some 10 fields per line from a text file. One of the field is in Chinese Characters. The other are numeric or english strings. When I open the text file (using notepad), I can see all characters displayed properly, including the Chinese. BUt when I read the line o text into a variable oneLine in a VB program using the following code:
Dim V_file As String = "N:Table_test.txt"
Dim oneLine As String
Dim scanfile As New IO.StreamReader(V_file)
[Code].....
My program so far reads a certain webpage's source code and places it in a textbox. This much has already been accomplished.
Now I need to pick certain strings out of the rather large amount of text data and have the lines stored in variables, but the trick of it is, the exact string is unknown. The exact function should be, that the code finds certain tags from the source code, say <td> and </td> and takes the string data in between those tags, what ever it may be.
I have a string of characters, but I would like to have a string of hexdecimal characters where the hexadecimal characters are converted by turning the original characters into integers and then those integers into hexadecimal characters. How do I do that?
View 3 Repliesi have been trying to remove special characters. i am not able to remove many crlf in middile of the string.
View 3 RepliesI need to create a console program that allows you to enter a string, of which is then outputted in reverse.
Sample:
Input: Diewas
Output: saweiD
Apparently I need to find out about strings and will also need to use a loop.
Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:
GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"
....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then
If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then
Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!

I'm creating a reporting application in Windows Forms. The application will allow the user to browse and search within a database table, but I also want it to integrate with a 3rd party web page that reports on related information. I understand it's simple enough to view the web page, but, integrating with my application will be quicker and easier. The web pages shows "operational status" on individual recording systems for the call centre telephones. To make sure that these recording systems are working correctly, a list of the extensions whose recording systems aren't working is drawn up. I want my application to draw up this list automatically, but to do that, I have to get it off the web page first.
View 5 RepliesTrying to read and display the text between two re-ocurring characters with a Serial connected device. The beginning of string starts off with "+8" and ends up with "0+". The string displays correctly between the characters, however I do not wish to see these characters. Here is my code that I used from a serial comm chat. P.S. this displays on two lines, the characters that I'm asking about are on the second line.

i was wondering if anyone could help me out a little, i'm making an online game thing, just for fun, but i hit a snag. I have a menu where i want to get information from a webpage for servers in this format:[code]This will go into a listview as it comes, but not sure how to get it.If i can read it per line and split it with the ',' that would be good and i want to beable to edit that page also to add/remove info using the same formation.
View 1 RepliesI've been trying to find a solution to my problem for quite a while. I need to build a program that reads data off of the screen, recognizes characters and images and then acts based on what characters and images are. For example, I provide it with a picture of a dog, a picture of each possible character, and it would be able to read the screen and tell me where the dog was, where the characters were and in what order, etc. Is there a free library for this out somewhere? I prefer something that can be used in C# or Vb.net

View 24 RepliesI have a tool which reads dBase files and uploads the contents to SQL Server, part of a system to import shapefiles. It works but now we have a requirement to import files that include non-English characters (Norwegian in this case, could be other languages later) and they're being corrupted. The dBase files are being read using an OleDbDataAdapter. Stepping through the code I can see that the text is wrong as it is read in. I'm assuming it's something to do with code pages or Unicode but I have no idea how to fix it.A dBase Reader application tells me the DBFs are in code page 1252 - I don't know if this is correct. My upload tool runs on Win7 with English (UK) regional settings.[code]Is there a way to tell OleDbDataAdapter what code page to use or a better way to read dBase files from VB.Net?

I have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?
