I'm currently developing an editor for an AFL management sim.I want to be able to load three or four multidimensional arrays to the program, then save them to the same file. I tried the tutorial on here but got completely muddled up. Why can't it be easy like in VB6 When it was like 10 lines of code tops!
I am trying to find a way to allow my users to choose the directory to save files into, THe file name is automatically generated as it has a naming convention and i am able to pre program a location to save to but i d like to be able to allow my users to decide themselves which directory they want to save the files to and to have the ability to choose which directory to save to
how I can somehow prompt the user to choose a registry key or entry in a dialog or tree view. Once they have chosen their entry, how is it possible to write the key or entry's path starting with either "HKEY_LOCALMACHINE...", "HKEY_CURRENTUSER...", etc, into a rich text box?
Why does my app not load the saved user scope my.settings when it starts by way of the registry run key? This key starts programs after the user login, per microsoft. So why does it not load the saved user settings? The program does start up, but all the areas on the form where saved user scope settings should be, are the default values (mostly empty strings). (The user scope settings are there if I start my program by the desktop shortcut
I've looked, searched, posted to other forums, but can't seem to find an answer.
It saves the settings to the registry, loads the preset settings, and if you want to uninstall the app, you can use the delete settings, which deletes the registry folder for you app.

I am wanting to limit my applications to be free for the first 15 uses. I am wondering about the best way to do this.Should I save the number of uses in the registry? Is this the best place? (Can't people just delete the registry setting and then have full use again?)

I'm trying to create an app to launch at start up that will ask you what applications you want launching, or if you want all your favorite app's to start up etc. But before I go any further, I think its crucial to know how to save settings that a user has entered (such as program location and name in this case) so that he/she doesn't have to enter them every time at start up.
So far I have just made this, can anyone tell me how I would get it to save the settings entered?
Code: Option Explicit On Module Module1 Dim name As String
I have an application that I need to be able to read and save a bunch of registry settings before they are changed. The purpose of this is to revert any new changes back to the original configuration. My application checks the state of each of the registry keys on startup. Is there a way to have it save the current configuration and then reload that configuration later ?
I am looking for code examples that allow me to write a user's view settings (field sorted by, label selections, etc.) from the detail view of a file open (GetOpenFileName) API
I have been playing around with Visual Basic for about a week now. I created a program that I use at work basically just to organize my day.
The program consists of buttons that link to programs and spreadsheets that I use often, as well as a checklist of tasks I've completed and text boxes that I use for reminders. Other buttons affect GroupBox texts and Label texts.
What I'd like to know is how I can implement a Save and Load button? I'd the current state of the program to be saved so it can be loaded in the event that I have to shut the program down. (Check boxes checked, Text in Text boxes, Labels, etc...)
I've been looking online for HOURS and I've messed around with the SaveSettings feature... nothing seems to work.
I have a treeview control that contains an Active Directory OU structure and I want to save this to an XML file, and load it again later.
When I save an OU that has a space in the name, I get an "XMLException was unhandled" error. The description is "The ' ' character, hexadecimal value 0x20, cannot be included in a name.".[code]...
I was wondering what is the easiest way to save and load data through different forms in vb. I just want to save 3 textbox.text that a user saves and be able to load it on a different form.
It's a game that continues for a long time and isn't done in a hour, so it is pretty annoying that if the player re-opens the game he has to do everything over again. So, does anybody know how I can make a save/load system? Like that on the first form of the game there is a "Save" and "Load" button. If the player presses the "Save" button, the program automatically saves the progress of the player in a file somewhere on the harddisk of the player, and if the player presses "Load", the program automatically loads the file he saved, so the player doesn't have to start all over again.
Before I begin I would like to mention that I am not a noob in VB, it's just I've never had to do anything this complex before. Basically what I want is to have a program that you can load a txt file in, have it copy key words, and paste it in a textbox so I can use it later on. So in this text file, there is a bunch of info, but I am only needing a certain part. Here is an example of a text file (actually a .dat file, but is easily read):
I have a made a simple program with multiple forms and multi text boxes in each form where the user inputs text into textboxes. I would like to be able to save the data into a file and then be able to load the text from that same saved file.
Is there a code template that would allow me to do this?
I currently have a vb browser and cant for the life of me find out how to load a "favorites list" the furthest I've got is add text to link label and save text in a location. I also cant find an if statement stating that if a label has type in it you move to next label.
Code: Private Sub Favourites_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim savef As New System.IO.StreamWriter("c:Program FilesAmaza Browserfavourite links.txt") [Code] .....
