I have a small project which I want to add a different text at the beginning and the ending of each line in a multiline text box.I've tried this, But It only let me to add it at the beginning ( because I don't know the length of each line And also I have to write a code for each line which is very hard because the text box may contains 200 lines Dim lines() As String = TextBox1.Lines lines(0) = lines(0).Insert(0, "Hello World")TextBox1.Lines = lines I want for all lines without having to repeat it again for each line
View 7 Repliesgive me a working regex expression (C#/VB.NET) that can remove single line comments from a SQL statement ?I mean these comments:
-- This is a comment
not those
/* this is a comment */
because I already can handle the star comments.I have a made a little parser that removes those comments when they are at the start of the line, but they can also be somewhere after code or worse, in a SQL-string 'hello --Test -- World' Those comments should also be removed (except those in a SQL string of course - if possible).Surprisingly I didn't got the regex working. I would have assumed the star comments to be more difficult, but actually, they aren't.
As per request, here my code to remove /**/-style comments (In order to have it ignore SQL-Style strings, you have to subsitute strings with a uniqueidentifier (i used 4 concated), then apply the comment-removal, then apply string-backsubstitution.
static string RemoveCstyleComments(string strInput)
{
string strPattern = @"/[*][wds]+[*]/";
//strPattern = @"/*.*?*/"; // Doesn't work

I'm reading a text file with StreamReader, line by line. If a condition is met, then I do an operation and then start reading the file again from the first line. I realize I could close and then re-open the file, but surely this would be very slow.
I could do this easily in VB6, but pulling my hair out trying to do this in vB.net. It seems that 'Seek' is the function to use, but it doesn't work.
I've seen other examples, where it works, but you must open it a different way -- with a file number.

Dim I as Integer

I have a listbox where each line contains a short 3-4 character model number followed by a tab and then the product name the model number corresponds to. I also have a textbox which I am using to search the listbox.
The code I am using so far works somewhat, just not exactly how I would like. If I enter search text it will highlight the results in the listbox but only for the first characters, is there anyway to search the text of an entire line (index) of a listbox?
Right now I am using the following:
Private Sub txtSearch_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtSearch.TextChanged
ListBox.SelectedIndex = ListBox.FindString(txtSearch.Text)
End Sub
I know it may be quite easily for you. i have a text which contains 40 lines, I want to remove lines which starts with a constant text. check below data.
When I used (?mn)[+CMGL:].*($) it removes the whole text , when I use (?mn)[+CMGL:].*(
) , it only leaves the first line.
+CMGL: 0,1,,159

DnsGetHostEntry takes an IPaddress as an argument but the one I'm supplying it while debugging is throwing an exception of "No such host is known" when I know that this is a perfectly valid host.
Somehow a space or character has been introduced at the beginning of the strong as per the text in quotes below. I tried a Trim(" ",

I have created an XML file using streamWriter.. Now, i want to remove the line breaks in my XML file.. Is there a way to accomplish this task.
[Code]...
I know there's ton of examples on the forum but i could not get it to work the way i want.
Sample CSV :-
Unused,172.22.21.2,SD103001
Unused,172.22.21.3,SD103002
Unused,172.22.21.4,SD103003
And what i wana do is change the Unused to Used so basically once this is done it will look like.
Used,172.22.21.2,SD103001
Unused,172.22.21.3,SD103002
Unused,172.22.21.4,SD103003
One thing to mention is i dont want to loop through the whole file and change all the Unused to Used. So basically software fires up opens the file and looks for Unused and changes it to Used and does the rest of the function and shuts down. Next time the software is fired up it goes through and does the same thing.

I currently have a bunch of text files I need to edit in a folder, I need to edit each file and remove the same line but not all files have this line, so I need to create a script that needs to check if the line exists then remove it.I have 1000s of files, that's why I need help to be able to create a script that does it for me instead of me editing each one manually.I am not sure on how to do this, but I am sure it is not difficult for people that have good experience with VB.net.

I have a wrapper class created around TextBox, and I want to find out if there is any way to test if the vertical scroll bar is at the beginning (the very top) of the text box and at the very end of the text box.Alternatively, I will be happy if only I can find out a way to check if a scroll bar is enabled or not in a textbox (note: it's not a RichTextbox).
By enabled, I mean that scroll bar is actually enabled i.e. you can use the scroll bar to scroll the control, not just visible (I know we can check visibility by GetWindowLong)
