I've been writing a socket application in which the client sends a user/pass combination which the server compares to a local text file. I'm only hacvin a problem with a small section where I have a do loop which does this comparison:(the string 'fromclient' has been defined earlier, as the information was received from the client)
fromfile As String
Dim sr As StreamReader = File.OpenText("C:PASS.txt")
Do While sr.Peek <> -1
Ok so I have a combo box that lists a set of names. What I want to do is match a selected name to a text file and read from it. The text file contains the same name and has grades listed below:
[Code] Which (when looped) checks all items that contain X, However, I am getting a lot of false positives (i.e. if PGA is legit, PGA, LPGA, JLPGA, WHATEVERPGA will all be highlighted as well) Any way to change .indextof to an .exactindexof or something?
Say I have an array of doubles sorted from smallest to largest. What is the FASTEST way to find the closest value in the array that is LARGER/SMALLER than the search value if an identical value is not found.
Code: dim myArray() as double = {1.245, 2.45, 3, 4.556, 5.4434} 'LARGER AND SMALLER SEARCH for 3 should obviously return 3 because its in the array. 'LARGER SEARCH for 2.46 should return 3 because it is the closest LARGER value 'SMALLER SEARCH for 2.46 should return 2.45 because it is the closest SMALLER value
I certainly can do this on my own, but I am looking for the fastest way.
I have a text file to read. I need to read one part of the text file and get the specific number than match that number with another part of the text file but same text file. Now i can read one part and get the number. this is the [code]....
So after i get the spesific text that i want to how can i match that value with other part of text file. I attach my text file here.For example the value that i want to find is[code]....I manage to find the first value but i dont know how to match
Write a program that requests a color as input in a text box and then determines whether or not the color is in the text file. The program should use the Boolean-valued Function procedure IsCrayola that returns the value True if the color in the text box is a Crayola color.
I am working on arrays and I am currently having trouble with searching and finding arrays. In this example, the user should be able to enter a Name, and it will output that person's stats.
Here is the text file (note, I should be able to go to this text file, add a few more names and the code should still work, which is why I am using loops,arrays,text files instead of if and else statements),
Kobe,29,6,4 Allen Iverson,28,7,4 Jason Kidd,12,10,9
So if the user enters Jason Kidd in the text box, this will display in another text box:
Jason Kidd averaged 12 points, 10 assist, and 9 rebounds.
[Code]...
All right now is the searching part. I really do know how to search for what the user entered and display the statement in a text box. I kind of have an idea of how to just get the name, but for it to get the name and then all the data for that name puzzles me even more.-I tried using .contain, indexof and few others.
I know to display the information in the text box will be something like:
I'm trying to make a script that searches for multiple .TXT files in a directory, and then searches the text of each file for a matching string(ie. "turtles"). It will search each file for the word "turtles". I've been on google trying to figure this out for a while, I'm guessing StreamReader is the way to go?
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim l_Dir As IO.DirectoryInfo l_Dir = New IO.DirectoryInfo(MyPath)
Im trying to get a list of all the text files present (there file paths) in a certain folder (lets say C:\Users\podypodpod\Desktop\textfiles) and then add them to the list box (lb_Entrys)
ive manage to find this code to get all text files from the desktop , but i cant manage to edit it so i can give an actual filepath for it to search
I need to open a file everyday which is located in the V drive However the file renames itself daily such as DAA123 DAA128 So I cannot do a Data Refresh What I need to do is create a Macro to search the text document and if it prices PRICES365 and as at todays date Then it opens?
I've got two text files. The first has got a list of certain keywords. Each one if these keywords are fed into a combobox. Now, when I choose one of the items from this combobox, I want to search the other textfile for the same keyword and read from that point to the next keyword. And then feed each line into a listbox. Perhaps I should use an INI-file for this purpose, doesn't really matter for me.
The textfiles have this structure; Textfile1: London Oslo New York Hamburg Amsterdam
The second textfile has this structure; Textfile2: 'London' Apples Oranges Pears
'Oslo' Pasta Salami Monkeyballs
'New York' Dada Duda Dadadish
Is this possible? The reason I want to do it this way is to create a fully dynamic system. One which relies fully on whatever information is stored in these textfiles. I'm gonna build pretty complex strings from these results later on. So far, I've got this to read the first file and add each line to the combobox:
Dim oReadMenuFunction as System.IO.StreamReader oReadMenuFunction = IO.File.OpenText("textfile1.txt") Do While oReadMenuFunction.Peek <> -1 Dim LineIn as String = oReadMenuFunction.ReadLine() Combobox.Items.Add(LineIn) Loop
I'm trying to get help or idea how to get certain things out of text file. I don't know even if it's possible, but I hope so.[code]I need to get that number what is after /kick "nr". Also I need to get last /kick "nr".
There's an INI file that I want to access and read information from. This is the complete content of the INI file in question: http:[url]....I believe it is because of the [ ] tags in that INI file. Because they work if I remove the tags.My program has a bunch of comboboxes, trackbars and checkboxes. These items will be filled by the information taken from the INI file.For instance, ini file has these lines;
I have been taking a class in Visual Basic and am currently working on my final project which I am having some trouble with. I am using Visual Basic 2010 express The project is to create an application that will store data in a text file, specifically, Last Name, First Name, Customer Number, Address, City, State, ZIP Code, Telephone Number, Account Balance, and Date of Last Payment. I have gotten everything done except the ability to search the file by Last Name or Customer Number. I have no idea how to go about this? I was thinking of ways to use indexof or Readline to be able to search the data, but I'm not familiar enough with the code to come up with a good solution. Below is a picture of how my form looks..As you can see, I'm currently using 2 separate forms to get the data from the user. Here is the code for Form1 which is the "Customer Accounts" form in the picture.
Imports System.IO Public Class Form1 Public customerFile As StreamWriter ' Object variable Public customerFile1 As StreamReader ' Object variable Public strFile As String
[Code]...
There isn't enough room to post the code for my secondary form, but you get the idea. I would like to be able to enter a search term in the textbox on the bottom right of the form, and either search the data as its displayed in the listbox, or search the actual file? I was thinking that the results would be displayed in a messagebox?
I need to be ble to know how to search a text file in VB for a particular line and then display it. the files I'm trying to use are set up as: ID, Name, Address, Birthday, Pay-Roll TypeSo I need to know how to search the file for the ID number and then display the rest of that line
I am searching a large text file for a word user inputs. When I test the following code, the app is searching the text file more than 1 X. I only need it to search the text file from beginning to end 1X. Then return the queried results.[code]

In a text file I have users add a folder using the folderbrowserdialog users then push add which appends the text with lets say they selected downloads
Downloadsname=Downloads downloadspath=C:documents and settingsJamesDesktop
how can I make it so that when they push a button it seraches for downloadsname then after the = is the text to use as a string and do the same with downloadspath
My app is a Bible Reader. At load up I can choose Genesis Ch1 and its entirety pops into a rtb. I enter a word to search for like 'God' and hit the SEARCH button. The results I get are initially what I want. I get the verse 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. But then the app replaces the script with other words containing God, but all jumbled up. Here is the code I am using: Private Sub ToolStripButton2Search_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton2Search.Click Dim stSearch As String stSearch = Me.ToolStripButton2Search.Text For Each Line As String In File.ReadAllLines(Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "Bible VersionsKJV 1611King James Version of the Holy Bible.txt")) If Line.Contains(Me.ToolStripTextBox1.Text) Then Me.RichTextBoxViewer.Text = (Line) End If Next LineBryn Ryver
All I am doing is reading each txt file I find in a directory and finding certain strings in the text then counting how many I find in each file and then once each file has its separate counts it send it to a sql database. I have most of it done, but I cant seem to get the count to separate each file so my problem now is that it counts the first file but when it counts the next file it adds to the first file and so on through all the files
Well I basically know how to read a text file, replace text then write to one. how to append text after a specified string (ie, insert text at a specified line, removing the text after a string in a line and changing it without altering other lines, etc). Can someone please tell me how I would go about adding a string after a certain string in a text file? For example:
I can search for the word Love in an .rtf file and return every occurance of the word into a RichTextBox. It returns the word and the scripture the word is in, but it also isreturning a bunch of weird text like: archan78988yykp etc etc. How do I onlyreturn the scripture with the searchedword, in this case the searched word is love. The code I am using is as follows:
< If Line.Contains(Me.rtbSearch.Text) Then 'show search form
