Reading Strings In Textfile And Adding Them In A Listbox?
Jan 6, 2012
I can retreive all items in my notepad but when I am adding them up in my listbox, and trying to print them in the console. I can only display two strings. I don't know why. My string is a combination of a name, space & score. ex: "luke 300". That is the pattern of all strings per line in my text file. I am separating the name and the score using space as the indicator. When ever a space is found, string before and after the space is retrieved and added to the listbox
Here is my
scorelist = New ArrayList
reader1 = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "scores.txt")
[Code].....

I am starting to learn reading and writing to textfiles. One quick problem. My code here
'Read is the variable that will read the kp.txt file"
Dim read As IO.StreamReader
read = IO.File.OpenText("C:2/kp.txt"[code].....
however when it is read into the listbox those 3 words appear on one line in listbox
How can i make it so that each line of the textfile is placed in each line on the listbox?

I've got the following txt file:
[code]...
Now I want that presented in the listbox with the semicolon and it should be aligned per column so that the numbers, the names, the prices and the quantity are exactly aligned per column.If I read the file like this:
[code]...
Then the semicolon is not presented in the listbox and I don't have any alignment per column. As the names of the woods are not equally long the prices and the quantity are not aligned directly below each other...
My questions are:
1) How to add the semicolon in the listbox as seperator of the columns
2) How to align the 4 columns in the listbox (as I have an array Item(3) )
Later on I need to be able to change the quantity (last column) from 0 to > 0 (that's why I have to use an array)

before you see any of this, you will have made a text file (dont ask how)
the text file will contain html with an unknown number of lines
(the user will click a button to add a new line to the file, so the number of lines depends on the user
each line will look like this:<a href="www.link.com"> text </a>[URL].. is just a place taker for what the user would have written there as well as "text"

I have a form with a listbox. I'm adding items to the listbox through a file that I saved. When I open the file, I want each line/string in the file to go in as a separate item in the listbox. I've gotten it to work so far but only with 1 string. I need to loop the part where the file is being read to be able to add all the strings that are within the file to the listbox. How do I do this? So far, this is the code I have:
VB .net
Private Sub OpenToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OpenToolStripMenuItem.Click OpenFileDialog1.Filter =

I need to search for a string in a text file. This string can change so I think I need to set a before and after string with the result being whatever is between. I've started by scrapeing the info from a Printers HTML page.

I'm making a personal program (So it doesn't have to look nice or be super sleek) that is basically an alarm clock. I set the time and date, it writes it to a text document then it reads it from the text document back into another textbox that is hidden and compares it to label1.text which is my system time and date.the problem is, I have it so that I can add multiple dates in one document so when I enter one it'll do as so [code]how can I make the program read 1 line, wait for it to match the label, (I already make it display a message box) and then after that is all done, go to the next line and wait for it to match. etc etc.

I'm having trouble reading in the file and populating the textboxes accordingly. After loading the file (I think that is) nothing is being populated in any of the textboxes listed below. Basically I'm not sure if the file is being read or not.
If OpenFileDialog2.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("path_to_file") Then
Dim ioFile As New System.IO.StreamReader("path_to_file" + "filename")
TextBox1.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the first line
TextBox2.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the second line
TextBox3.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the third line
TextBox4.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the fourth line
TextBox5.Text = ioFile.ReadLine() 'Adds the fifth line
End If
End If

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 a project that is used as management for a YouthFootball Team. Part of this is adding training fees and keeping track of who has, and has not paid.This part of the project is adding the fees to the relevant textfile.Textfile - Trainingfees.txt
Each line looks like - player name|number of sessions attended|amount paid I have a form with a DataGridView. Each row is populated with: Checkbox Column, Player name in textbox column, blank textbox coloumn The user then ticks who attended the training and how much money they paid in that session.
I then have this code to loop through the DataGridview and add call a separate function that adds the relevant information to textfiles.

I am trying to add a player registration form to a textfile. And i have a few problems.One of these is that when adding to the textfile, it isnt recognising the selected value in a checkbox (checkbox is used to distinguish between a goalkeeper and an outfield player). Can you tell me what should I be writing to make this happen, - "chkGoalkeeper.??? = "" "

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'm trying to place the contents of a text file (just a list of names) into a list box when the form loads.
My code currently looks like this:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code].....
I can get the names into the list box, but they're all on one line. I thought about using a For...Next loop to read the contents of the text file, but I got into all sorts of trouble; do I need an array with that method? So I've got back to the code I originally had.
