OK, so the following is a link to a picture of my program. I'm including it because I feel it makes things a lot simpler. some information. When you click Rename, it goes to that Rename form. The information already there is the current name. What I plan to do is make it easy to rename the file.What I want is when the user clicks one of the handy buttons, the information appears in the text box (as I've gotten that far already). When the button is clicked again, it removes ONLY the specified information. I don't know if you can, and if you can, what to use. Currently I'm using clear which is obviously wrong. I want essentially:
When button is selected
Append Text Variable A
When button is deselected
I'm fairly new to VB and I had a quick question. I have a multi-line text box that currently looks (line for line) like this:
scn <Name> Begin <Start Variable> End
What I am trying to do is make so when I enter text into a different text box (lets call it textbox2) and push an 'Update' button, it replaces a certain part of the original text box. For example:
If I enter "Dogs and Cats" into textbox2 and push update, then this:scn <Name>
becomes this:scn Dogs and Cats
How would you do that? Excuse my lack of VB programming lingo like I said I'm new to this language.
I am creating a simple researcher application to access and store data. As of today it workes by entering a number into a text field and hit enter/button. The result then shows up in a non-menu webbrowser window. What i would like it to do was to exclude the web browser window, and instead show in a popup window inside the application. This should be rather easy, here's what i think might be a problem. I want only to show specific lines from the webpage, not the whole page.
HTML Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter("Select * From " & Me.OpenFileDialog1.SafeFileName & "", con) Dim cb As New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(da) Dim foundRow() As Data.DataRow foundRow = ds.Tables("dataset").Select("OffMarketDate = '#4/6/1963#'")
what is the command line to single out certain parts of text from a string only..for example string = "Hellodullardtomboy".what is the command to capture only the word "DULL" between "hello" and "ardtomboy" only.
I am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.[code]
(Just to give some backstory) I'm making a program to easly create ReadMe's for Fallout 3 mods, and you can check some boxes to show what offical extension you need in order to run that mod. How can I only show parts of a text line? The line will be like: Requirements: (First Extension), (second extension), (third extension).
How would you go about performing calculations on parts of inputted text in vb 2008?For example: if i wanted to find the number of "a's" in the first 9 letters divided by 9 and add it to the second number of "a's" in the second set of 9 letters divided by 9. Then output the total in a textbox.
I want select portions of the file and then display them on my site,I thought maybe a combination of objReader and a do loop of some description with a delimiter in the text file to indicated when the program should start or stop reading the file.
I have a main form with a DataGridView populated from an Access Table.So far so good.When the user clicks on a row a small form pops up and the the user can enter/edit for 2 specific fields .After that hitting the save button an update query ensures that the data are written back.Because the base table is big i don't want to refresh the dataset (at least i don't want to have the user wait for a good amount of time for a simple change.......this is acceptable only when the application is starting) and i thought given the fact that the changed data are just a few words to "edit" the datagridview cell i want so that it displays the changes.BUT i can't do that.As soon as the 2nd form where the user enters the details the DGV from the main form is unaccessible.When i try to get access to it i have a nice message "Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference."I tried to make a object reference but nothing ...
I have search system that works like charm: 1> Searches specific folder for text files which contain specific word 2> Puts those text file names and/or paths to listbox However i want it to put (instead of InputStr) the specific line where word is found in text file to listbox.
I have an SQL database, and 50 text files, and Visual Basic 2010 Premimum,I need to find a specific line of text in the text files and then take the next 37 lines of text and save them in my database. I need advice as to point me in the right direction
I have a Comma Separated value file in .txt format... simply put, its a bunch of data delimited by commas and text qualifier is separated with ""For example:
"So and so","1234","Blah Blah", "Foo","Bar","","","","" "foofoo","barbar","etc.."
Where ever there is a carriage return it signifies a new row and every comma separates a new column from another.My next step is to go into VB.net and create an array using these values and having the commas serve as the delimeter and somehow making the array into a table where the text files' format matches the array After that array has been created, I need to select only certain parts of that array and store the value into a variable for later use.... how to make the array and selecting the certain info out of it..
I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then EnglishForm.Show() ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.
I have is my columns are separated by spaces but these spaces can vary between 1 space and 20 spaces. So would it be possible to replace all spaces with one space? This will mean that each column is seperated by one space and I can then start working on my next bit of coding with deleting columns.
I have two text files. The fields in each text file are separated by a space (" "). Some of the fields in column 1 of file 1 match the fields in column 1 of file 2. However the third column in file 2 is a numeric field. What I wish to do is check every field in file1 against the field in file 2, and if the number is 1 then remove the row from file 2, if the number is > 1, then subtract one from it.
I have the following coding so far.
Dim lines1 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File1")) Dim lines2 As New List(Of String)(IO.File.ReadAllLines("File2")) Dim values As New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)()
