The idea is that I have certain values stored in textboxes/listboxes and thus can I store the information in a spread sheet. And if I change the value in the spreadsheet can it also change the value in the application? I had one idea which was to make both store data in a txt file and read from that, but I'm not quite sure how to do that either.

I have a config file that I store information in and parse using streamreader. For example..
configfile.txt TEMPLATE NAME: mytemplatename TEMPLATEDIRECTORYPATH: C:TEMPWOOF.TXT
I had been doing a split function after the ":" but, that doesn't turn out so good once you add in file paths. I have turned to trying to grab the first ":" from the left using the "InStr" function which returns the char integer. I need a way to grab all the information on that line after the first ":".

I have a parse from Wikipedia saved in a text file in the following form: The town itself is situated to the south-east of the rock, and overlooks the Palaia Monemvasia bay. A small hamlet with about 10 houses lies to the northwest.The founding of the town and fortress of Monemvassia most probably occurred in the 6th century AD. The town was founded in 583 by people seeking refuge from the [[Slavic peoples|Slavic]] and the [[Eurasian Avars|Avaric]] invasion of Greece. From the 10th century AD, the town developed into an important trade and maritime centre. The fortress withstood the [[Arab]] and [[Normans|Norman]] invasions and conquests in 1147. Cornfields that fed up to 30 men were grown inside the fortress.What I need to do is to extract specific texts from the parse given the header names. For example, if I type in a textbot Geography I need ONLY the geography text returned.

I am trying to extract everything between the body part as I am building a forum crawler
and since all the user posts are between the <body></body> I have chosen to experiment
with Regex. So far I have coded the following but sort of stuck on how to output the result say in a textbox? Also I am not sure if the body part of the regex is correct.
Dim URL As String = Textbox1.Text
Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("URL")
Dim response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = request.GetResponse
Dim streamReader As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())

I have tried a few things like converting HTML to XML and then using an XML navigator to get input elements but I get lost whenever I start this process.What I am trying to do is to navigate to a website which will be loaded using textbox1.text.Then download the html and parse out the input elements like . username, password, etc and place the element by type (id or name) into the richtextbox with the attribute beside the name.[code]Any clues or how to properly execute an HTML to XML conveter, reader, parser?

I am trying to build my own website and realized that it would be a big help to also create my own vb program to enable me to embed tags with simple clicks of buttons. I am having trouble getting my vb code to be compatible with html code (I keep getting vb syntax errors).
Here is what I've tried:
<strong>'Inside of a button:Textbox1.text = "<html tag example></html tag example>"</strong>

I know how to extract an entire page source into VB.NET, but once I do that how do I make VB.NET search the text and return a specific vlaue that is not constant?
Take this line from the page source for example:
<td id="actualPriceContent"><span id="actualPriceValue"><b class="priceLarge">$4.30</b></span>
the text is always constant but the price is not - how do I make VB.NET return the price?

Not sure if this is possible at all. I was hoping somebody could help point me in the right direction. Right now im not quite sure what to search for or what this would be called. Basicly I was wondering if it is possible to design a application in vb.net 2008 that could search a website for specific information.

I have an email account that receives various requests to get free materials, for different items. These emails will usually contain name, item, quantity of item, address, state, zip. What makes it difficult is that all the emails are different, unstructured, and the data is usually buried in the emails, i.e. a forwarded email.I want a way to get all the information and parse it into a ms sql database.I know there are products that would work really well like url... but at work we can't afford this.I was thinking of creating a webservice that would input mail data posted from a third party site like cloudmail.com into a secondary website and then maybe creating a ruby script that would crawl the messages and extract addresses, etc. Anyone know of a good, simple alternative, a custom script in ruby, php, vb.net or possibly an open source solution?

I have this XML, and I want to know how I can go to one of the tags and make its contents into a variable.
Here is the xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Mediainfo version="0.7.34">
<File>
[Code]....
But it only showed be how to go to the first tags. In this xml, it is in a few tags, (<MediaInfo> <File> and <Track>) I don't know how to go past those tags to get to the tags that I want to get to, plus, how would it work when there is a few things that have <Track> as a tag? Could I use the whole thing <track type="Whatecer"> to get there?
I just have no clue on how to do this, can anyone please help me out to get to each tag? I am pretty sure I will be able to make it into a variable my self.

I think in C# you can create in-line RouteValueDictionary instances like this:
<%=Html.RouteLink(Model.Name, "SomeRoute", new { id = Model.Id }) %>
What's the equivalent in Visual Basic?
This works, but is quite wordy:
<%
Dim d As New RouteValueDictionary()
d.Add("id", Model.Id)
%>
<%=Html.RouteLink(Model.Name, "SomeRoute", d)%>

I have connection to the Access database in my Visual Studio 2008 solution. Now the problem I am having is when I enter the information on to the form how is it suppose to transmit it to Access? I am sorry to be a pest, but I did not want to take this class eventhough it is required. I only have a few weeks left of class. I have tried looking at a lot of tutorials but it seems to be just repeating the same thing over and over. I wish there was a Visual Basic for dummies that can be accessed on line
