Reading Text File Line By Line, With Resetting Position To Beginning Of File
Jun 23, 2011I'm reading a text file with StreamReader, line by line. If a condition is met, then I do an operation and then start reading the file again from the first line. I realize I could close and then re-open the file, but surely this would be very slow.
I could do this easily in VB6, but pulling my hair out trying to do this in vB.net. It seems that 'Seek' is the function to use, but it doesn't work.
I've seen other examples, where it works, but you must open it a different way -- with a file number.
Imports System.IO
Dim I as Integer

Truncate The Beginning Of A Log File In .NET?
Feb 24, 2010I have an VB.NET app that writes the status to a log file in text format. Over time, the file is getting large and I wanted to know if there is an efficient way to truncate the beginning of the file.
To make things easier, I am looking to specify a file size (say 2-3 mb) and I am writing the log using a StreamWriter:
Using strm As New IO.StreamWriter(filelocation.log, True)
strm.WriteLine("msg to write")
strm.Close()
End Using
I thought about using the strm.BaseStream.Length to determine how much of the file to cut off, but by using the .SetLength it would cut from the end - not the desired result.

Access To A Server File Share To Move A File?
Apr 18, 2012Im am writing a simple console app that will check and see that a file exists and then if does it will copy the file and move/paste the file into a new location. The file I'm checking exists as a file share on a server and I am wanting to move the file to a folder on a local machines C drive.
I'm working from my machine which is on the domain where the file exists and I'm logged in and have full admin rights on the domain. I can access the file share but when I run my app it gives an error saying access to to the file path is denied. My question is even if I'm on the network do I still need to provide username and password credentials to make this connection? If so how do I do this?

Impersonation - File.Copy / File.Move With Different Credentials
Apr 2, 2009Ideally I'd like to be able to copy/move between an accessible folder on my local drive and a network share that I don't have permission to access (but the application would). I am using impersonation to give me access to the files in the network share but using System.IO File.Move or File.Copy forces me to use the same credentials for each location. Is there a way around this?

File Move Dialog Box?
May 17, 2012I've added a needed feature to my program where the user will move their completed forms to the network drive. Currently the program finds all associated files in the source directory and then moves them, but I was wondering if there is a way to move only selected files or multiple files at a given time. Using VS 2010, I've looked at the open and save file dialog boxes, but open only lets me select one file at a time while the save dialog box does not let me move them. Just wondering of some ideas/suggestions for this.

View 1 RepliesMove A File On Exception?
Aug 13, 2009On an error (thrown exception), the file being processed should be moved to the folder for files with errors (app.config setting).
The problem: The only way that I can of handling this is to have a nested Try/Catch inside of the main Try/Catch to try to move the file, that way if the move fails, another exception is thrown. I know that I can do my best to make sure the directory exists, rights are given, but since it is a network drive... I just know an error is bound to happen at some point.
Example
Try
(Do Some Logic, but an error happens)
Catch ex As Exception
Try
[Code]....
Actually that came out even more horrible than what I was thinking it would look like.
How should I really be trying to handle a possible error occuring in the catch, so that I can still move files and try to call my event?

View 2 RepliesMove To The Next Line In The Txt File?
Jan 25, 2011I have a text that has a question followed by four possible answers. At the start, it loads up line 1 of the text file and puts the sentence fragments into their proper place (text.split is being used). I want to be able to have a click button event that then reads the second line and replaces the first line's sentence with its own. Click the button again, it goes to the third line.
This is what I've created. It reads the first line (But honestly, I think it reads the entire thing and the first line is the only thing that can fit in the selected spots). It then splits the first line into fragments, moving them to certain areas of the form. Question goes to the Question label, answers go to the selected button.
HTML
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim readText As String = ("C: est.txt")
Dim textParser As New TextBox
[Code]....
So, like I said, what would make it possible for me to create a button event that when I click on it, it moves to the next line in the txt file?
