Search For A Formatted String In A Text File?
Sep 21, 2009
The format I need is a group of numbers in a text file and it looks like this and it will always look like this:xxxx x xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx x xxxxxxxxxxx xxxx x
The problem is that it can be anywhere in a text file so I cannot search by a particular line.
How can I search for this type of string format in a text file?

So I am trying to create a Win App to make copying files using Robocopy easier and eventually other tasks. Basically what I have so far is a Button that calls the Sub Robcopy_EXE. There is a tab on the form with 100 check boxes, one for each terminal, that will be designated by the user and a check box to determine if you want a detailed report or not from Robocopy. I also have a text box for the user to input the first 3 octets of the site IP Address. The check boxes and Input field are used to create string "Terminal_input" which is what runs Robocopy in CMD. Robocopy logs its progress to a text file that I have labeled "Status.txt". That is as far as I have gotten.

I've been trawling the web for ages trying to find some dll's/code to be able to extract text from a PDF file and keep the formatting as much as possible.I did find something last year, but it simply took all the text and created one big list of every section in no particular order, so I couldn't read the values I needed from it.

I would like to read an HTML file, search each line to see if it starts with </head>. Then add the centering code after it. That line at destination file should read:
</head><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2" width="760"align="center"><tr><td>
After this I don't care to search for anything. Just read from source and write to destination. I know there are programs out there to find/replace text in series of files but I am not allowed to use external programs.

I'm trying to create a print function with a corresponding print preview. For some reason, any string I create with String.Format will NOT show up on the print preview! Use the code snippet below as an example:
Dim strTemp As String
strTemp = String.Format("{0, 210} {1, 75} {2, 51} {3, 200} ",
"NAME", "PRICE", "QUANTITY", "DESCRIPTION")

I want to search a string (which contains html source of webpage)and get all text that strinh holds, like:
TC83886783380753647814458
TC27072318654272127623234
...
so, i want to find all text that is located in code between "serviceid=" and "&" (example how it would look in html source/in string: serviceid=TC27072318654272127623234&)
so the result would be only text in that format (starting with TC and 23 numbers following it)
I think i could do it by parsing a string somehow

my format statement from vb6 is not formating right in vb 2010. Here is what I have.
sw.WriteLine("202" & Trim(Str(1000 - index)) & "0" & Trim(Str(kdex)) & Chr(9) & Format(Plotrecinp(1, kdex),
Chr(9) & Format(Plotrecinp(index, kdex), "#.#####E+##"))
This is what it gives me: 20299901 14415.58E+14415.58E+ It should be more like this: 20299901 2.88462E-1 1.45098E+4 nevermind the difference in the number values. the formatting is what I want.

i have a simple statement of code that reads:
Return String.Format("{0} {1} {2}", _var1, _var2, _var3)
i'm trying to get this formatted string to output each var on it's own line. i'm new to vb.net but i did try one thing:
"{0}
{1}
{2}"
that didn't work.

Okay, so what I want to do is directly output formatted RTF text to a Rich Text Box control in VB.NET. I don't want to find the text, select it and color it as it is not practical for what I'm doing. I've tried outputting RTF code but that isn't working either. Can I actually do this or will I have to write a dll?

I've been using text.indexof() to see if a string is located inside another string, however is it it possible to do a case sensitive/insensitive search option? I've been looking around Google and not having much luck with it.
A huge bonus would be if it could count the number of occurrences inside the string!

This seems so simple, but I can't get the answer. I need to get the current time in an hh:mm:ss or sss military format. By military format, I mean that if it is past noon, the hour is the PM time plus 12 (1 PM is 13, 5 PM is 17). I found this bit of code:
[Code]...
It returns the hour in AM/PM format. That is, if it is 4 PM, it returns 04 rather than 16). I can't find documentation on the hh:mm:ss mask. In fact I can't find a simple discussion on how to make the time of day property return time in various formats. After 3 hours of futzing around,

I have looked around for awhile and have not seen anything yet. I was hoping someone came up with something by now that can guide me in the right direction. I have an rtf string pulled from my database. I was trying to find a way to display this rtf string formatted in silverlights richtextbox. From what I have read silverlights richtext stores formatted text as xaml and not true rtf. Has anyone found a work around?

User posts text into textbox/grid etc Button is pushed. The text is formatted as if it were in a spreadsheet. ie Only x words per row Each cell is of equal length and width.To put it another way; The first letter of the second word of the first row. should be directly above the first letter of the second word of the second row.

I have a wizard I jinned up at work to import a CSV into our database. The intro "welcome screen" has a fair bit of text regarding the catalog format, but it looks so... bland.
My thoughts turned to making an html page, adding it to the project, and then in place of the text box of instructions have a web browser control to load that specific html doc in the project.
The html doc would have all sorts of pretty formatting and what not (bold, bullet points, colors, etc).

I am looking for a vb.net library where I can insert data into an object and have it spit out a json formatted string, and also take the string in again to rebuild the object.I am not that concerned with mapping it to preexisting objects.I have searched around and every single library I've found either can't read the strings in again, interprets them as one long string instead of breaking them up into parts, or fails to work entirely (asp.net can't even find any public members).

I'm using VB2008 Express and Flash CS4. I'm trying to create a CGI-formatted text file with VB2008 and use it in Flash. Below is an image of the form I'm creating. Beside each number is a textbox for input of the answer follwed by a double-numbered textbox. There's also three radio buttons on the top of the form, "Single", "Double" and "Triple". Single is multiplied by 1 for a number-inputted text box; Double is multiplied by two and Triple is multiplied by 3. Take a look at the form below and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I've put a page long document into a richtextbox, thinking I could get rid of the cursor (or caret -- whatever it is when you click on it) but no luck. (I guess there is an API for this -- and it may come to that).
