double quote appears on open and end of each lines.
I have a CSV file where the values are in double quotes and seperated by a comma. I'm getting incorrect data if I try to seperate the string with my Split function. How do I do it?
Example:[code...]
I am trying to replace "a" to = ""a""
code i have tried is
If line.Contains("""") Then
line.Replace("", "")
[code].....
In vb.net, im using objWriter.Write("playerA= "x"")as you can see im using double quotes inside double quotes, how do i skip it so the error doesnt show up?in php you make an "" to skip the string like ("playerA = "x" ")
View 6 RepliesI have a problem that seems trivial. In an argument to an activity I need to supply a path.
This is done by this code:
String.Format("a
-bd -y -tzip {0} {1}* -r",
Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory,
"output.zip"),
BinariesDirectory)
However, the directories parameters contain spaces so they have to have quotes around them. I tried with single quote ' that works fine to put in the string, but the command shell executing the command ignores these. So it has to be double quote "
I have tried all methods I have fount on the Internet, for example to have a backslash before the double quote and to have three double quotes, but nothing seems to work. I get a compiler error as below.
Error 4 Compiler error(s) encountered processing expression "String.Format("a -bd -y -tzip "{0}" '{1}*' -r", Path.Combine(BinariesDirectory, "output.zip"), BinariesDirectory)".Comma, ')', or a valid expression continuation expected.

View 2 RepliesHow would I do a replace to replace a double quote with a blank space
What would I put in the ( ):
NameValueArgs.Item(i).ToString().Replace( )
I noticed that if I leave off the terminating double quote for a string constant in Visual Studio 2010, there is no error or even a warning, i.e.
Dim foo as String = "hi
However, the continuous integration tool we are using flags an error:
error BC30648: String constants must end with a double quote.
Is there some language rule in VB.Net that makes a terminating double quote optional "sometimes"? Is there some setting in Visual Studio that will make it flag this as an error, so I can avoid "breaking the build" in this way?
I am saving a text field that may contain a single of double quote.' or "If i use a double quote in my SQL save funciton I can save and use single Quotes.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to read a csv file with comma separated. Problem is inside the file, it has one column which original value already contains Comma. Here is the example
[Code]....
So, when I Split the string with Comma, it gave me problem. Actually total it has 6 columns. But because of internal comma, it gave me 7 columns. And this CSV format can't change so I must deal with this problem. And so here I come out with a solution (because of its too long, I looking for better idea and solutions from you guys ):

I have a htpc project that I am working on. The main program loads dll plugins which are basically other win forms. On each of these forms, including the main program, I use a picturebox (a double buffered picturebox) for the background image and then draw everything on it by hand. Whenever I load the form from the dll and show it, I get a weird flicker. It looks like it is the previously used double buffer. Is there any way to clear the background double buffer before the flicker? Or am I going in the wrong direction?
Here's a couple of videos of the problem:

When I do Data Importing (CSV to DataGrid), everything runs normal except one problem.
CASE 1: If the Original CSV Data is: "ABC" It will appear as like ""ABC""
CASE 2: If the Original CSV Data is: O"K" It will appear as like O""K""
It will create extra quotes after importing into the datagrid. Does it related to Split() function?

View 3 RepliesI have a number of files that are generated in a function defined as:[code]These files are immediately printed and the files are automatically saved to a directory; the files themselves are not for use by the actual software users. I timestamp the files to keep them uniquely identified for auditing purposes.I've now received a requirement to email some of these files externally to the company, and someone has complained that the current filenames are not user-friendly.So, I tried copying the generated file to a temp directory, with a friendlier name, emailing the friendlier file, then deleting it, leaving my audit trail intact, like so: [code]This throws a System.IO.IOException on the line System. IO.File. Delete (friendly FilePath) because the file is still in use, after it has been emailed.I've taken out the email code, which makes the copying and deleting work fine, so it's apparently attaching the file to the email which causes the problem.I've also tried breakpointing before the delete line, waiting five minutes, confirming the email has been sent, then advancing the code, but the same exception is still thrown.
View 3 RepliesI have a open and file save dialog which I use to open and save file. There are also some labels in the application.

View 1 RepliesI have a arraylist with plenty of lines. The array is populated from documents that have all kind of stuff in them, I got no control over what they contain. There's blank lines and double linebreaks so when I want everything in a textbox I clean it using this
[Code]...
I need a code for the open file dialog that if a file is not supported then a message box appears stating the error. This is my open file dialog code. [code] The message box pops up like it is suppose to, when you click ok the open file comes back up like it is suppose to. When you put in the correct file the message box comes back up again. Also the message pops up even if the correct file is put in the open file. but if you close the file dialog the image is where it is suppose to be.I believe the code for the public sub wrongfile is what is the problem. can some one look it over and let me know what changes are needed.

View 6 RepliesI am creating a web page which converts binary data into a temporary file.The *.tmp file then gets converted to a *.tiff file.This all works fine.
The next step I would like to take, is for the web page to programatically go to the local *.tiff file, and simulate a double click in Windows Explorer.
This should then either Open the file, or ask what program should be used (as per all non recognized file types in windows).
I was wondering if/how I can get my program to open a file as if I were to navigate to it in windows explorer and double click on its icon.

View 8 RepliesI'm a complete novice with VB and any coding in general, but as life will have it, I have to create a program for my Final Year Project at university.In short, the idea is to open a file that has many lines of numerical data, then select the required lines, do some calculations on them and write it into a new file, but the new file must have its own format and the calculations must go into the correct lines.
Im struggling really with how to get it to read the file and then write the new one. Currently I have it so the user can open the file and it will display the data into a text box. I want to then be able to click another button that will convert that data into a new type, and in turn display that in another text box. Then have a save button to save the newly created data. This is what I have so far...(it's not much.I havent really got much of a clue what I am doing lol)

I have a textfile I need to open and I need to put each line into the array. What is the simplest way to add the elements/each line's data into the array while increasing the array as it reads each line? This is blowing my mind right now..I thought about using a counter and then redim-ing the array (while preserving of course).
