Save All The Items In A Listbox To One Setting And Reload It?
May 6, 2009
I have a listbox that may have text in it so when u press save i want it to save all them text to a my.setting then on form load i want it to put them back where they were.
I have added a textbox and a combobox into the form. There are 2 buttons as Add and Remove. Everything works fine here but the problem is after addig/removing (using add/remove button) new items into the combobox, when I close it, the new items added/removed are gone. I need to save the new items added to the combobox during close. I can understand I have to create a Application Setting which will save the new items added to combobox upon closing. But I don't know which code I need to use? Below are the currently used code of this project.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click ' This is to add new items to combobox ComboBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text) 'MsgBox("" & TextBox1.Text & " Successfully Added to Combobox") [Code] .....
I have a form with a listbox. I'm trying to save the items that I add in the listbox to a file that i create when I use the save dialog. Every time I run this and try to save the file with all the listbox items, I get an error from VB that says "Procedure call or argument is not valid."[code]...
I've got a problem, I'm making a program that gives you the choice to add items to a listbox, these items are text. When the form loads, i need it to load text from a file into a listbox. For every line I need it to add that text to the listbox. My problem is when it loads, there's an extra line, but that's only after I close the form and open it again. The reason it happens when the form unloads is because the listbox items are saved on form unload. Now, I believe the problem is my code to save the items:
Dim Env As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) For Each item In Form1.TP1.Items Dim Save As New SaveFileDialog()
I wrote this code to save the items of a listbox to a .txt file, and I don't know if I am doing it right. Tp1 is the name of the listbox, and I have this code under a public sub in my module. Here's the
Dim CC As Integer = Form1.TP1.Items.Count Dim C As Integer For C = 0 To CC
I've been trying to figure out how to do this correctly for some time now, and I have seen no insight. I'm trying to successfully save all of the items in a listbox without saving items that are not there. What I mean by saving items that are not there is when it saves, it seems that blanks magically appear in the text file.Here is a sample of my current code to save.

I'm not completely sure if it's the loading or the saving that's causing problems, but what would happen is it would add a blank item to the listbox that I do not want.Here's a picture before the listbox is saved, look to the bottom left.Now here is what it looks like after: (notice the red oval)Does any one have any idea what could be wrong?If you want me to attach the text file, just ask.
So, I have created this program and I want it to save the items that can be added into the list box with the My.Settings codes.(So every time I open the program the items will be there)
Has anyone else come across this where they need to separate Listbox items that are being saved in aXML file.
My Current code stores all list box items into one Long String, I just need know the syntax to separateeach item with maybe, Pipe Delimited or something.[code]...
i have a button and a listbox. I would like to click the button and it will popup with a save file dialog and then save all items in the listbox to a .txt file.
I added a setting in my.settings, the setting is a listbox, and I know you can put controls in a listbox, but for some reason it will not let me add a toolstripmenuitem to the listbox in my settings. Is there a fix to this?
I want to retrieve the selected items in a listbox, save them to a collection, and then use that collection later. I thought that was simple enough, but when I clear the selected items in the listbox, my collections (items, indices) change. I found this out by stepping through the code.
Basically what I'm wanting to do is move items in the listbox up or down (up in this case), and still keep them selected.
I am making some kind of calendar where I can add tasks, so I can easily organise my tasks. For it to complete, I have 3 things I can't figure out how to do it:
1. When I launch the program, I want the items in my listbox to be sorted alphabeticly.
2. I want to save the items in the listbox, so if I close the program and reopen it the items are still saved in the listbox.
3. The items in the listbox all start with a date, fe. "13-4" for today. If that date already passed I want that item to be deleted.
I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.
I have a multiselect list box on a Windows form (VS 2008) containing references to 35 different work stations. The end user can select any number of workstations in this listbox, then store those selections to a SQL table (this part is working fine). The problem is getting those same workstations highlighted/selected when the user recalls that record from the database, in the event that there are addtions or changes. Here is the relevant code for the reload[code]...
I'm still playing with my program that has multiple RichTextBoxes. What I want to do is to be able to save the data in all these boxes (only about 10 characters max in each box) to a simple text file and then reload the saved data into the exact boxes they came from at a later date.
I'm using VB 2010 Express. I'd like to ask about tree nodes - in my application, the user can change the nodes and add more. When I leave the application, I would like to return and for the new nodes to still be there. I've tried My.Settings, but I've decided there must be another way to do it in a file. For each node, I need to save the key and text, and reload it next time.
I made project using VB.Net 2005 with multi languages, the first form is MDIParent form with MainMenu and toolbars also there is some changes in properties as righttoleft and text of forms.In my Mainmenu (Menustrip) there is opetion to change the UI Culture and I have already done but I need to change all texts in the form as mainmenu items anf form properties.My quetion is: how can I reload my form again to read the new texts names and mainmenu items names from resx file?
How can I save ALL of the items in a listview, items that were added by the user? I tried application Settings and tried creating a settings file but there is not a settings option for listview items.
I have researched the net, youtube, and the msdn DB, and still can not find the working answer I am looking for. I would like someone to show me how you would save the contents of "Listbox1" to a .txt file using the "Save As" Option. I know how to hardcode a savepoint in, but since there will be multiple users I would like the option to be up to the end-user.
I am using the below code to find all the items in a listbox using vb.net 2005. But how can remove the non searched items from the listbox after searching?
probs a simple answer but my mind is blank atm. I have this code to move all items from listbox3 to listbox1 but it wont move them unless i select 1, then it moves all items.
