I want read the content of the text file and write to vb.net application. My text file name is wires.txt. The above code only read and the file appear on the application. I dont want the file to be visible to the end user.
I came upon your forum while googling my problem. I respect the fact that you don't do someone else's work as I wouldn't either. But, as a beginner I have a lot of questions so hopefully no one minds.

The code below allows me to write a single line to a textfile. Id like to be able to open an entire textfile into a textbox, be able to edit said text and have it automatically write back to the same textfile.
Private myCoolFile As String = "C:UserskevinMy Documentspasswords.txt" '// your file.
Private myCoolFileLines() As String = Nothing '// String Array to read File Lines into.
Private sTemp As String = Nothing '// temp String to be used as needed.

View 1 RepliesI was unable to find anything in my searches for XML or INI on the forum so i apologize now if this has already been asked and answered before.
I have been searching Google for days now, trying to find information on Reading and Writing XML files. I wish to use them to replace INI files in my programs.
I have been using VB6 for years now, but was able to get a copy of VB.NET 2003 really cheap and so i am trying to learn how to do the things i did in VB6 in VB.NET 2003.
I was able to find code to write to an INI file, but was not able to successfully read from an INI file with any of the code i found.
I have been able to find code to write an XML file, but when i try to update it, it replaces the old file with a new one, and the old settings are missing, instead of the new settings added to it.
i can at least start migrating to VB.NET 2003, or if you read XML and update XML data, i can switch now. Here is the code i have for writing XML.[code...]
I have an application which reads and writes to the registry. If the programs starts, it looks if the registry keys exists. If not it create the keys. All this is working fine on a Windows XP machine.
Now we moved to Windows 7 and it is not possible to write to the keys. First I need to go to the registry and add permissions. Then it works !
Is it possible to change the permissions in the .Net code and make it able to write to the registry without changing permissions through regedit ?

I am trying to create a textfile and write some lines into the textfile. However, the code that i am using can only write when the textfile is already created in the directory.
For this case, can i actually allow my script to search if a textfile is being created, if not create a textfile ???

I am working on a program with multiple collections related to one another for a school project. Each collection needs to have its own defined properties and have the objects written (1 per line) to a text file.
I have all of that working.
When reading the comma-separated line from the file, I want to place one of the properties of the object in a listbox (so that all the objects' names will show up in the listbox). I think I have this part figured out...
My problem is that when you click on the name in the listbox, I would like multiple text boxes to be populated with the appropriate, corresponding properties of the particular object in the collection...is there a way for this to be done?
I write one line of text to a file and when I looked into the file I see three chars which I did not write
View 1 Repliesi know i have to use a loop to get each line of the textbox onto a newline of a textfile but i dont know how to figure out how many lines of text the user has entered into a textbox. I tryed using a try statment to loop until it errors, it seems to work sometimes but other times it only takes half of the textbox and adds it to the textfile. And if atmaweapon reads this, i tryed to make better names for variables. Here is my code,
Code:
Path = ("Meals" & ComboBox1.SelectedItem & "" & TextBox1.Text & ".txt")
File = New System.IO.StreamWriter(Path)
If ComboBox2.SelectedItem = "1" Then
[Code]....
how many line of text there are... im not so shure how good it is to run a loop tell it errors for a textfile, but its the only way i could think of.
I have a txt file, that i want to read into my program. The problem is this:The textfile is a stats file for a game and looks like this:
Code:
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
ip:port wins username points
etc.
The main thing i want to do is sort these things out and then add to mysql database table that would have these columns:
Code:
ip authid wins username points
So what i wanna do is splitting this textfile data up and then adding everything to a mysql table.
I have written an import routine, that imports a textfile into a database table, using a schema.ini.In the input file, 3 fields are seperated, that should be concatenated in the import-routine. Does anyone know how I can make that happen...Small part of the import-routine, first lines are the last lines of the programatically created schema.ini.
Code:
PrintLine(intFile, "Col11=mededelingen1 Text")
PrintLine(intFile, "Col12=mededelingen2 Text")
[code].....
It may seem noobish but, I've been try forever! I've been postponing a database project for like 3 years and I finally come to some solutions except for when it deletes an Item from the list. On form load, the listbox generates data from a text file (we'll call text1) which has data in it. For every line of data in that text file (text1), there is a text file (text2) in a 2nd folder.
For example, there may be, in text1, a line named "Hi". In the 2nd folder there is a text file named "hi.txt" Another line (say the next line under 'Hi') is written as "Hello world", there will be a file in the second folder called hello world.txt"
May seem confusing but it works well. My problem is making that 1st text file that has ALL of the data that loads into the listbox, be rewritten over with the new data in the listbox OR remove a certain line of from the text file.
I have a multiline string that is called password (as you can see in the code below) that i want to save to a text file:
Dim
password As
String
