Here's my code to add new lines to my text file:
[Code]...
When the button is pressed the line is written to the file just fine, but if I restart my application, which calls Refresh_OtherLog() onLoad, it displays the lines of the text file as one line with the traditional square character depicting a character return. Why is it not putting that new lone as a new line in the listbox?
encountering a problem when trying to write data to a text file. If I put the output into a messagebox I can see it, but when I attempt to write it to a file it is just blank. What am I missing here? EDIT - This is just a simple winform that I specify a path to a local HTML file in Textbox1 and I'm attempting to parse some HREF tag data.

I need to add a row of data to an exisitng TextFile that is in Tba delimited format. My program currently used ADO to read and update the table but that was creating to many problems with varying 3rd party providers of the Text File.

I am writing each line to a text file:
Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(filename)
For Each x In tofile
objWriter.WriteLine(x)
Next
objWriter.Close()
Which works perfectly the only problem is is that when its finished it writes a blank line on the end of the text file which I don't want.
I am new to the forum I have been working on a GUI to export verification data to a text file. I have it set up to work at home but I would like to adapt the code so that it will write the text file to the directory that I use at work also. I have the areas commented out where things that I have attempted do not work. Here is what I have for code:

I have some large csv files (1.5gb each) where I need to replace specific values. The method I'm currently using is terribly slow and I'm fairly certain that there should be a way to speed this up but I'm just not experienced enough to know what I should be doing. This is my first post and I tried searching through to find something relevant but didn't come across anything.
My other thought would be to break the file into chunks so that I can read the entire thing into memory, do all of the replacements there and then output to a consolidated file. I tried this but the way I did it actually ended up seeming slower than my current method.
Sub Main()
Dim fName As String = "2009.csv"
Dim wrtFile As String = "2009.1.csv"

I have thios code that will load a php file (text file) into a sting via streamreader then its supposed to find and replace a portion of the text and write the changes back out to the file via streamwriter. I put my code together and after running it look at the file and it's unchanged. After looking closer it appears the problem is the find & replace operation I am doing on the string. Here is my code:

I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

It returns the word and the scripture the word is in, but it also isreturning a bunch of weird text like: archan78988yykp etc etc. How do I onlyreturn the scripture with the searchedword, in this case the searched word is love.

All right, here's my issue. I have a resource that is a text file. I'm trying to use a StreamWriter to edit it. I've done it in C# but can't find my example files.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to use filestream and streamwriter / streamreader to have a simple text box where the text entered is written to a text file, and then a button can be clicked to read the file and present the text back to the textbox. It works, but the problem I'm having is that if i change the text to something smaller in length (less text) than what is currently in the file, then press the button to read the file, it still contains some of the old text that was previously in the file.
Dim strmReadFile As New FileStream(txtPath.Text, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read)

I'm getting a problem when writing text files using StreamWriter. The files read fine and they write fine if I'm not overwriting an existing file. They also write ok as long as I'm not writing over a file that only has one digit at the end of the name. For some reason when there are 2 digits at the end it crashes when I'm trying to save over an already existing text file. Here's my code.
StringForTextFile = "C:" & Folder4PS & "" & IDCodewDashOrN & "Series" & Series & "ScreenNumber" & ScreenNumber & ".txt"
LblTesting.Visible = True ' Testing
LblTesting.Text = "StringForTextFile = " & StringForTextFile
[code]....
above but 've tried all the different Encoding possibilites. Unicode, UTF32, UTF8, UTF7 as well as without those parameters listed where the close parentheses is right after StringForTextFile. I get the same result. If I'm writing a new text file that doesn't exist, then no problem or if I'm writing over an existing text file but it has 0 to 9 at the end then I'm ok but if I'm writing over an existing file and there is 10 or above(haven't tried triple digits or all values) then my application crashes. You see the test label in the code above because I was looking at exactly what file it was trying to overwrite and it is just as it should be.
Should I be using a different procedure? An example of a string that would cause a crash for the string StringForTextFile would be:
C:Name of My AppSeries1ScreenNumber10.txt
If it was being written for the first time then no problem or if the 10 at the end was 0 to 9 then no problem also. I've also tried and originally had it set up where there wasn't an If File.Exists(StringForTextFile) = True Then statement. It just always used the same code whether writing or overwriting and I wasn't having a problem that I remember. For some reason I started having a problem recently and I put the alternate methods of writing in.
Dim fs As New FileStream("C:est.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite)Dim b As New StreamWriter(fs)
b.WriteLine("hellothere") : b.Close()
b.close is necessary to save changes to the file, but then, fs will be closed, too. is there any method that does the same thing but doesn't close fs, like "b.save"???
VB 2005 now offers different methods to write/read a file, such as the File.WriteAllText, the My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText and the StreamWriter.Can anybody explain when is it better to use which method, which one is more efficient in term of memory/processor use and performance time?

I am using the following code to write and empty (dummy) file to take up the remaining space on a device.RemSpace is a Public Variable declared as Long I have a function that gets the remaining space on the device and stores in the RemSpace variable (in bytes). I have tested with a msgbox to display the result of RemSpace, and it comes back correct (not 0).
