my program logs data from two different meters in a .csv file. My problem is that when I open the file in excel, data1 and data2 appear in the same column..example:
data1

How can I write it so that data1 is in a separate column from data2? Here are excerpts from my

I'm sure a lot of people around here tried Rainmeter or Google desktop. They are nice but I never felt comfortable using them on my desktop, either because they ate too many space or aren't much flexible in terms of settings and stuff that can be grabbed from the Webs. So I thought I'd make my own personal tools. It's intended for Windows 7. What language, VB or C#, should be easier to implement this kind of stuff (small panels with no borders/frames, small memory usage if possible) based on experiences of people?

My (local, windows/mono) app logs important events to a text file. In case of a sudden crash/failure/forced exit, no data should remain unwritten (as far as it's possible). Thus I currently use a simple append-to-text-file approach:

I am trying to code a delete button for a browsing program based on data from a txt file. I have coded the buttons to sort(ascending and descending), append to the text file, search the text file, but I can not seem to get the delete function working. I am using VB 2010, this is what I have so far:

A VS 2008 desktop .NET program needs to open a PDF file and read its contents as data. That is, the program must scan through the PDF file searching for certain text. The program will not merely open the PDF file and display the contents using a control such as an ADOBE Reader control. It has to actually read the individual data within the PDF.
How can a .NET program read data within a PDF file?
In the program I'm working on, there is a 'sign-in' form that pops up for the user to enter first name, last name, and DOB. What I want to do is STORE that information in a text file for FUTURE use by the program (i.e. displaying a list of all previous users of the program).I already know how to use streamwriter to write text to a file, but I would like for the text file to be stored within the program files and also for a new user's data to be appended to that file every time.
Do I simply add the text file to the project files? When I do that, its path is 'My Documents'. How will that affect the program when I publish it? I guess I just don't yet understand what happens when the program is finished and published. The code for the 'Submit' button on the sign-in form is pasted below. At the bottom, I've put a comment to indicate where I want to store the data to a file.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim TxtBox() As String = {TextBox1.Text, TextBox2.Text, TextBox3.Text}

I'm rewriting a legacy application in .NET. In the earlier version, I used a few control .INI files that could be edited by the advanced user to provide variation in certain program options. (The program also permitted override of these same variabes via menus and such.) I used the API functions to read the .INI files and rewrite them to alter the user's environment for subsequent runs.
View 19 RepliesHere is what I would like to do:
- Store string data from a 'sign in' form into a text file. This text file must be one that is saved even after the user exits the program. The text file must also be one that will stay with the program even after it is published (executable).
- Be able to write to/read from the file for purposes of displaying some or all of that data on a form.
I use an Application Setting to do this - of type 'Specialized String Collection'. I tried this, but for some reason I could not get it to work. It was a good idea, but I need to be able to SEE the data that has been saved, and with a setting it seems like that is not easily done. I've decided that I either need to use a simple text file or a 1-table database for this. I would prefer just a text file, but in either case, it needs to be part of the .exe when published.
I have added a text file to my project, but I am not sure if it will be "included" in the project when I publish it. The path of the file I've added is in 'My Documents', but in my code, I will have to specify the path in order to use Streamwriter. How will this affect the program when I publish it? I felt the need to make a new thread because on my last one we had been mainly talking about settings, and I've decided that isn't the best option for me.
I have a small database program that gets data from csv file, I created a function that formats the font color of textboxes based on dates and values.
CODE:
I place this in text changed event and I have a problem implementing it, because the date conversion will not take place until the data is loaded. The second part works but not the first(Date) part.
I can create a button and use its click event to format the text boxes just fine, however i wanted the text boxes to be formatted on the fly . The problem is no matter where i call the function the date conversion wont work.

So may I know how are cookies and session handled?Do I have to implement them manually or are they stored and retrieved from the same folder as the one used in I.E? If so, if I delete the I.E.'s cache, am I also deleteing the cache of any Web Browser I make using Web Browser Control?
