I have Project i need to recovery file System . And some information who Create that file , deleting , replace , Modifying . I need also return any file delete or replace .
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.

I have a bunch of object variables which are all initialised in their declarations such that:
Private _myObject As New ThisObject("SomeString")
where ThisObject is one of a number of object types, but all are initialised using a string.
I would like to use the Visual Studio Find/Replace dialog box to search for "As New" then replace everything from "As New" to the first set of speech marks with some text such that:
EDIT
My original example could be solved using other methods. This example is more representative of the actual problem:
Private _myObjectA As New ThisObjectA("SomeString") Private _myObjectLongName As New ThisObjectLongName("SomeString")
I want to replace ALL <firstName) tags to John and all <lastName> tags to Smith to protect sensitive date. In addition, there will be other tags such as address, ss number and phoneNumber.
NOTE: There may be multiple instances of <firstName> within the file. 1000 xml files with all replacing names, address etc. with the same fixed name such as John Smith These will be used for testing and to prevent sensitive data from being leaked
There is no doubt that I can do this the long and dirty way. (I am working on).
Looking for unique term 'END' in file - want to delete the term as I will append text later in the routine and append a the same unique term 'END' later in the same routine. Here another poster's code to find the term:

I am making a program for work, i have it partly coded, unfortunately i don't have a wifi connection for my laptop right now which makes it hard to add my code here. What i am trying to do is have the user pull in a text file from anywhere on the computer using a open file box that pops up, i got that part, to make sure that is working i have a textbox that reads the data of that text file, it gets pulled in fine using a stream reader. Now what i need to do is search the text file for certain values, and depending on the selected item in the listbox which is on another form, change that value in the text file, im guessing i will need to use a stream writer, and ive seen examples used based on the file location(C:....) but in my case im not sure how to do it.
I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition, my goal is to read an entire .txt file that works as a template and replace all ocurances of a word with a new one and save this new modified text in a new .txt when you press a command button.
I finally figured out how to open a file ..find the text that I need to change and then change the text to whatever I put in a textbox then save the file into a separate folder.....my issue now is can I upscale the process to can I patch all the files within a folder to change the text in all of them to the text inputted from the textbox all at once and then save them all into another folder?
I have some code that uses the Replace function to modify the content of a string like:
x = Replace("Hello World", "H", "P")
This works fine until I decide I need to use so of the abilities found in "System.IO.File" When I place at the top of my code.
Imports System.IO.File
The " x = Replace("Hello World", "H", "P") " code pops up with the Error: "Expression does not produce a value."Looks as if the System.IO.File I now want to do some file manipulation..
I have a 133 Mb file which contains almost a million records. Currently, a user loads this file into KEdit (a great editor for working with large files) and changes occurrences of a dollar sign $ to blank and takes negative numbers represented as such with parentheses and changes that to a negative sign. That is, (5000.23) would become -5000.23. So the leading ( becomes a - and the trailing ) becomes a blank. I believe the only occurrences of ( and ) are around the numbers I want to change, so I don't have to worry about changing something that should have been left alone. Using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008, is there a "painless" way to do this other than reading the file one record at a time and searching/replacing and writing the record out? While not really painful, I am worried about how long that will take (to run, not to code ). Is that a valid concern?
My long range goal is to automate many of the routine file preparation tasks my users do. We get an input file from 15 clients. The file can be in any format the client has chosen to give us, and it is our burden to reformat any errant fields into an acceptable format for insertion into our database.
