I am creating a program which needs to read an online XML file. I am using the XDocument type to do this and currently need help in reading an XML similar to this:
[Code]...
I've got myself a CSV file with the following contents:
1,The Compact,1.8GHz,1024MB,160GB,440
2,The Medium,2.4GHz,1024MB,180GB,500
3,The Workhorse,2.4GHz,2048MB,220GB,650
It's a list of computer systems, basically, that the user can purchase.I need to read this file, line-by-line, into an array. Let's call this array csvline().The first line of the text file would stored in csvline(0). Line two would be stored in csvline(1). And so on. (I've started with zero because that's where VB starts its arrays). A drop-down list would then enable the user to select 1, 2 or 3 (or however many lines/systems are stored in the file). Upon selecting a number - say, 1 - csvline(0) would be displayed inside a textbox (textbox1, let's say). If 2 was selected, csvline(1) would be displayed, and so on.
It's not the formatting I need help with, though; that's the easy part. I just need someone to help teach me how to read a CSV file line-by-line, putting each line into a string array - csvlines(count) - then increment count by one so that the next line is read into another slot.So far, I've been able to paste the numbers of each system into an combobox:
Using csvfileparser As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser _
("F:folderprogramnameprogramnameinDebugsystems.csv")
Dim csvalue As String()[code]......
But this only selects individual values. I need to figure out how selecting one of these numbers in the combobox can trigger textbox1 to be appended with just that line (I can handle the formatting, using the string.format stuff). If I try to do this using csvalue = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I get the following error message:
"Error 1 Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String'."
If I then put it as an array, ie: csvalue() = csvtranslator.ReadLine , I then get a different error message:"Error 1 Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array."

im trying to read a online txt file and its not working [code]but it has a uri error i think in doing it wrong but need help with how im doing it wrong, all i want to do is read the text from a file online not from the system should be easy.
View 1 RepliesUsually, the text file that would need to be read and processed would be local (on the computer the program is run), but for this example, we need to get the data from an online text file.
I have searched on google for nearly an hour now and haven't found anything of any real use. One of the earlier projects we submitted used a similar target, and I managed to get it working fine, however I dont have the original source code with me and I cannot remember how I did it.
I believe I used a Net.WebRequest method of some sort, because I had tried using StreamReader and ended up with an URI error or something like that.
1. Can i check an online text without flooding my form with webbrowers or diming the webrower so i dont spam my source EXAMPLE TEXT
[Code]...
so what its should do is change the label to the txt and never use the webbrower again 2.if i do use the webbrower method will it make the file size VERY big if i put like 5 of them and only using it for about 2 secounds 3.with the CheckOnlineText example can it wait until it fully loads so it doesnt load "" like webbrower when not useing documenttextfinish thngy
Here is the plan/layout for the connection to a database.The biggest thing is that, it must be able to be connected by everyone, and it's pretty obvious why this is a big one, haha. The aim of the database is, naturally, to store all the info about the user required by the game (so each column would have x rows, name, age, etc etc). The program would have the ability to add columns (user registration) and log into them (username and password). They would enter their username password, and it would search for username, and if found, confirm password = password in that column.
So basically, the database acts like any other database, it just needs to be able to be connected by everyone (or by a vast majority of the average population), and be able to be edited (adding rows/deleting rows).I've dealt with databases before, but only local ones, and I've tried before with internet (and intranet a few times), but those ones never went anywhere, so they were dropped.
