Load Text File Into ListBox/ArrayList?
Apr 30, 2010
I would like to know if there is a quicker way to load a text file into a listbox/arraylist than this:
Code:
Dim fileList as New ArrayList
Dim fileReader As New System.IO.StreamReader("textfile.txt")
Do While fileReader.Peek() <> -1
[Code].....
If I need to load several text files into different arraylists, especially if the textfiles have a lot of lines, this process is very slow. Too slow for my current app to work smoothly, actually.
So, is there any faster ways to load a text file into an arraylist? Or if there isn't, is there some quick way to easily access and change data that is on a particular line in a textbox, so that I don't have to load the text file into an arraylist?

I'm trying to read and load the content from the attached text file to a arraylist with the code bellow.
but what is happening is that not all the lines from the text file are loaded in to the arraylist, the reading jumps from one line to other in the text file.
Dim FILE_NAME As String = ((My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath).Substring(0, (My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath).LastIndexOf(""))) & " est.txt"
Dim lista_barras As New ArrayList
Dim lista_barras_esp As New ArrayList

i want to load a text file to my listbox. Chosen using a openfiledialog, so it wont have to be on a fixed location. However, i dont know how to do this. I know how to save a text file from a listbox, but not how to load one into it.
Next question, When loaded into the listbox, how can you select the next line?

I previously asked a question about my meeting planner app, and how to delete a specific entry in the array. Someone had the interesting suggestion of using a ArrayList, instead of a normal array. I am attempting to learn ArrayList, but to no good result. I can't even get the ToString method to work correctly to write what I want it to into a text file.[code]...
My plan is to have each of those three fields to have their own entry in the ArrayList, but when it is saved to text file, those three fields are comma delimited to a line for each appointment. Of course when the text is loaded, it will have to be converted back. Can anyone point me in the right direction or have any other method of going about this with the ArrayList?

Add the items from text file into TextBox and ListBox.[code]...
Where, ";" is the Delimiter and data is just one line only. "A" has to load in TextBox and "Cat,.....,Bird" has to load in ListBox, one line per animal.I've already read the text file and load "A" into text box. But couldn't figure out how to load rest of the data into list box.

in my program i am trying to make it so that when you press a button it opens a "choose file" popup(where the user can choose a text file) then after the user chooses it the program will automatically load each line of the textfile into a listbox.But i have been researching it and the only thing i have been able to find is a file>open thing. So how cold i make it open a "open" dialogue on the press of a button and since i haven't been able to find anything on the open dialogue i haven't looked for anything on the loading each line of it into a listbox?

How do I get my info from a .txt from my website to load into my listbox?! Like if I were to do this...
Try
Dim client As New Net.WebClient
client.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password")
ListBox1.Items.Add(client.DownloadString("ftp:public_html/listboxitems.txt"))
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox("Error : " + ErrorToString(), MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
End Try
It just adds a straight line of my multi lines that are in the .txt file...

I am working on an assignment where I need to have a product list that is loaded into a list box upon the form loading. This is generated from a txt file in the /debug folder upon loading. Now my question is how do I have the product names show up in the list box when there are 3 separate parts to each product. The product, the cost, and the quantity in inventory, and all I want to show up is the product in the listbox, where the rest show up elsewhere.
CODE:
'This procedure loads the data for the array from txt file. As well as loading the Product.txt file into the system when the program loads.

[code] I'm trying to load a textfile with (formatted, mostly tab delimited) data, into an arrayList.To manipulate and extract certain data I was able to search through the arrayList and retrieve the needed data.This is what's not working: If I have found my needed data in certain places from the arrayList, I would like to split this to read the needed values. Trying to do this I constantly get string cannot be converted to 1-dimensional array of string errors. [code]

How to put an arraylist inside a listbox but that's already solved. [URL]. There is all my code, so I need to be able to edit the selected customer, clicking on customer>change from the Main GUI. Then the CustomerFrame GUI should open, and all the texboxes should show the information that is in the listbox. There I need to be able to edit the customer and save it again.
I know this is the Code to display the item selected from ListBox in a TextBox
Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object,ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
TextBox1.Text = ListBox1.SelectedItem
End Sub
But that's not all I need to do, the index of the listbox is divided into all the items of the arraylist. There is the complicated part. How to divide each item of the arraylist into individual textboxes?

I'm working in VB.NET
I have an ArrayList named Invoices populated with objects of the class Invoice.
I'd like to data bind this to a ListBox so that as the contents of the ArrayList are updated and changed the ListBox updates. I've implemented a .ToString function on the Invoice class, I just don't know how I'd go about binding the ArrayList to the ListBox.

Before I begin I would like to mention that I am not a noob in VB, it's just I've never had to do anything this complex before. Basically what I want is to have a program that you can load a txt file in, have it copy key words, and paste it in a textbox so I can use it later on. So in this text file, there is a bunch of info, but I am only needing a certain part. Here is an example of a text file (actually a .dat file, but is easily read):

I want to load a csv file (A comma delimited text file) into a datatable. I found the OdbcDataAdapter Class which looks perfect, but it says it is supported only in version 1.1 of the .NET Framework.
Is there a better way to import a csv file into a datatable? the first line has the column headers.
I am using Visual Studio 2008, using version 3.5 of the .NET framework
