I would like to know what code I should add so it would read then convert the text in a URL to string. I would then use this string for my application to check for updates.The text in the URL is a HTML document that i uploaded and all it has is four or five characters.
I am reading an XML file and there is some data within the file that I need to do some math functions on and comparisons with.How can I convert some of the read data into a number?Can it be done before I read it meaing can I specify that what's between certain tags is a number?
I'm trying to read the binary data from a binary file with the code below but the it's return the value in the byte array. How can i read the binary data from the binary file and then convert the data into string?This is how i create the binary file.

I have a textbox which is used to enter a number, in the code i need this to be divded by a variable value. I am having trouble converting the textbox text to a numeric value, so the code works fully.
what I'm trying to do is read a text file and convert column2 in to lowercase and save it again.
But I get Value of type 'Integer' cannot be converted to 'System.Globalization.CultureInfo'. after .ToLower? Dim Convertcolumn = From line In System.IO.File.ReadLines("Path") Select line.Split(" "c)(1) & line.ToLower(1)
i have a string with the value = "/var/mobile/Media/iTunes_Control/Music/" i need to read the next 13 letter after this string in a text file i am also using a loop to do this multiple times

I get a mail from pop3. There the mailbody as String shows "=20" for a space and the Characters "äüö".... are false too.How can I convert the text to get the correct String ?
I'm working on a licensing system for my application. I'd like to put all licensing information (licensee name, expiration date, and enabled features) into an object, encrypt that object with a private key, then represent the encrypted data as a single text string which I can send via email to my customers.
I've managed to get the encrypted data into a byte stream, but I don't know how to convert that byte stream into a text value -- something that contains no control characters or whitespace. Can anyone offer advice on how to do that? I've been researching the Encoding class, but I can't find a text-only encoding.
I have lines of text that contain "degree symbols" (ASCII(248)). I want to replace those symbols with an alphabet character (Z).I am changing the line of text into a charArray,iterating through one character at a time. How do I define the ASCII(248) in code to replace each occurence with a Z? Something like string.Replace(ASCII(248), "Z") would be nice, but that doesn't seem to work too well.
I have an application where the user and search the database and return the values from it. They can also figure the Average, Median, and the Standard Deviation from it. BUt I have a problem with this since the business rules won't allow the result column to be anything but a string so now I am getting error messages on the Select commnad text since it is trying to perform the calculations. I am wondering if there is a way to convert the values in the command text to a numeric value then perform the calculation. Here is the code I am using at the moment.
I use the following command to save my textbox strings to the file:
Sub SaveToolStripMenuItemClick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
FileOpen(1,"test.TXT", OpenMode.Output) ' Open file for output. WriteLine(1, textBox_name.Text) ' Print text to file. WriteLine(1, textBox_middlename.Text)
I'm working on a way to authenticate users in my app, and what I've come up with is the following method.To write to a database, the user must have an account in SQL server 2008. However, I still want people to be able to view the application if they don't have access, but only read, they can't sync any changes. This is working well, as I have a string array hard coded containing approved users:
Dim Users() As String = {"BWANG", "EDASALLA", "ERICHARDSON", "HALONZO", "JCHAPMAN", "SKIM", "PMACK"}
The one problem with hardcoding is that if I need to ever add a user later on, I'd have to release an update to the program. (which isn't hard as I already have updating built into the app, and users can still download updates even if they can't sync.)
What I'd like to do, is use an encrypted .dat file that contains the user names, and store that with the application, so that i could always be added to, and only one file would need to be downloaded.
I have code in place to encrpt and decrypt the .dat file (called users.dat) and this code works for single text entries in the file. I need to figure out how to load a list however into the array in place.
Imports System Imports System.IO Dim userfile as String = "C:users.dat" Dim Users() As String = Data.Decrypt(File.ReadAllLines(path))
Basically each line in the file will have an encrypted user name, and i want it to decrypt each line and store it back into that authorized user list.
I have a folder that contains about 100 txt files with information in each file.I'm trying to figure out how to loop through each file in the folder, and add the text to a string.I've pulled this off MSDN's site, but it doesn't seem to read "each" file but just one.
Dim path As String = "c: empMyTest.txt" ' This text is added only once to the file. If File.Exists(path) = False Then
My program creates a array of numbers as entered by a user and then finally adds them up. The form should be able to display the numbers typed in by the user. I know how to put one of these numbers into separate labels and could display each number that way but I wanted to know if there is a simple way to display the string that is created as a list in perhaps a read only text box or similar?
How do I read all the text from a text file and save it as a string variable? For some reason I remembered it being something like this: IO.FromFile.ReadAllText("path") but thats not it.
Is there a class or something I can add to be able to read an email?I really want to be able to make a real email client (like outlook).Is it possible with vb.net?
I would like to read an HTML file, search each line to see if it starts with </head>. Then add the centering code after it. That line at destination file should read: </head><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" width="760"align="center"><tr><td> After this I don't care to search for anything. Just read from source and write to destination. I know there are programs out there to find/replace text in series of files but I am not allowed to use external programs.
I need to check the test result with the data from database, to find out which test result is failed. If there is a fail test result, I will show an alert to the operator and stop the checking process. Until the operator close the alert, then the checking process will continue from the last read point.
I'd like to convert a string which contains a decimal number into string that contains the binary value, the octal and the hexadecimal value of that decimal number.Afterwards I also like to convert a string containing a binary, octal and hexd. number into a decimal string.Basically I'm looking for the functions:
dec2bin dec2oct dec2hex bin2dec oct2dec hex2dec
I'd not prefer to rewrite a function, I'm sure the framework must have these functions already.
Is there any way to convert null terminated string to normal string.I mean I can easily make a program to find the location of vbnull but there has to be a built in function for that.
