I need to display the MinAH price and the name of the item listed in the table. If possible, I would also like to make a listbox of all the servers/realms in World Of Warcraft, giving the user the ability to change the realm that they want from the list because the prices will be different. Another thing would be a specific item instead of the ones already listed in the initial table (see link if you don't understand). You can search items on the website, I'm not sure how I could incorporate this so the user can select a specific item.

Eventually, I'm going to want/need the program I am creating to either:
A. Access the MySQL database from my website.
Or.
B. 'Load' a PHP page, and grab the contents off of it. [URL]Are these options avaiable in VB.NET ?
I was wandering if I can push a button to read contents of a webpage and then print links into a textbox or something along those lines. Maybe search from a textbox to find keyword on webpage.

I am working on a project in VB 2008 and need it to do this:Read first line from text file (using Openfile)Enter line into textbox on formDo some other codeThen Read second linefrom text fileEnter line into same text boxand loop until we have gone through text fileI am not sure how to read line by line from text file then enter it in textbox. I can open the Openfile and get the filename and everything, but I just am not sure how to read from it or enter that line into the textbox.Here is what I have, its not much but its a start:

I need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
Here's what I know:
1. how to open a new file
2. how to specify the record length
3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?
I want to be able to able to read the dimensions of a TIF image without loading the entire file.
PS Using Visual Basic 2008 on Vista64.
I want to perform two hashing operations concurrently on a single file, without reading the file twice. Is there some way to share the FileStream between two synchronized hashing threads? For example:
Dim Stream As New IO.FileStream("...", IO.FileMode.Open)
Dim HashA, HashB As Byte()
Dim A = New System.Threading.Thread(Sub()
[code]....
Maybe some way of caching a stream? Trouble is, I don't want the entire file in memory at once (it could be many gigabytes in size) and I don't want the file read more than once, due to speed issues. I want the file cached only sufficiently to ensure that both threads can work.For example, suppose at some point in time, thread A had read 100k of the file, but thread B had only read 20k of the file. The portion of the file between 20k and 100k should be cached; but then progressively forgotten as thread B catches up. Then again, if thread B is too slow, we might still end up with hundreds of megabytes being cached.Maybe thread A should be made to wait while thread B catches up. Maybe the ReadByte() function of the stream should block for a while if one of the threads is too far behind?
I have a checked list box that is populated with the text from a text file. I started off with this code:

What Im making is like a face book and tagged login from my app
1. I have Combobox with 3 urls in there ( Facebook.com Tagged.com and Bebo.com )
2. I have a Form2 with webbrowser
3. I have a Button when clicked it should open up my form 2 and preview of the website which I selected in my combobox in form1
All I'm trying to do is when I select lets say facebook in my form 1 and click load it should open up my form 2 with facebook website in it.[code]Now when I click my button in form 1 it will load Form2 ( named Explorer1) but my form2 is not showing me facebook or tagged page for some reason
I have been looking for a method to download a file that is created by a .Net web site ( 3rd party so I can't control the download method ) and sent through the browser via response.writefile. The file is generated by the web page and then forced to the browser so I have to "walk" web site.
Browser Automation: I have tried to use AutoIT to automate the browser ( both IE and Firefox ) but ran into issues with each one. IE won't let me disable the download manager so I get popups and the Firefox component won't walk the DOM correctly to find the unnamed elements I need to access.
Web Browser Components: I also tried the GeckoFX component for VB.net but when you click the button it does not download the file. The WebBrowser control will download the file but still has all the popups that keep me from doing it with an unattended program.

friend of mine has no HTML knowledge so I'm attempting to write a program that replaces certain parts of a html file to suit his needs.I've edited the HTML file and marked certain parts with "tags" like this:

So can someone please enlighten me to-as how to open a HTML file (there's no textbox to display the contents just yet, I'll add one if needed), find the specified text and then replace it with whats in a textbox.
I am trying to import a TAB (NOt comma) delimited text file into a DataGridView. The following code works fine if I have a comma separated file. All I have to do is change the FMT to "Delimited".It just does not work with FMT=TabDelimited. All columns are read into single datatable column. The text file is ANSI text and I have double checked to make sure Tabs are tabs and not spaces, even exported a sample Tab Delimited file from Excel.Can this even be done using Text Driver? [code]

I know all about File.Exists in VB. I know that it should work, but in my situation, it is not. Currently our site builds an image string based on the user id, then goes to our image folder on the server and retrieves it. If the image doesn't exist, it displays the broken image icon. I tried implementing the File.Exists method using the path and image name it was already using to pull the file. Even if the file exists, if returns false. I have read other posts saying that it could be a security issue, but it seems to me that if it can pull the image, it should be able to check and see if it exists. [Code]
