View 3 RepliesI was hoping someone could assist with the following coding; I am trying to search a very large csv file (approx 200,000 lines) for a user defined string eg "0100020789" and I essentially want to print all the lines that contain this to a text box on screen. Please not that the csv file does not have standardised column headings, each line is different. There would be approx 5 lines that contain the input string.
I am concerned with the v large csv i am using which will prob slow everything down, but then I thought if simple text pad application can search for a string in complete files with similar sizes like that and return a result in less than 1second, then it must be do-able.
I have a listbox which on form load generates correctly from a text file like so in a listbox...ex"John Doe, 1""Bob Brown,2"I now would like to search the listbox if it contains either a "1" or a "2" which is does in this case and copy the item to another listbox. The 1 and 2 indicate positions I have a position listbox for each position. So 3 listbos, first one contains the names on form load, 2 other empty listboxes one for position 1 other for position 2...I have tried the following
If xReservationListBox.SelectedIndex = xReservationListBox.FindString("1") Then
'MessageBox.Show("Found It")
xSpot1ListBox.Items.Add(xReservationListBox.Items(0))

I have a dataGridView and a textbox on a form. I want to be able to search through the dataGridView and sort it compared to the string in the text box. Ex: I type "acv" in the text box and all strings containing "acv" are sorted to the top. I'm accomplishing this with a bunch of gymnastics involving datatable.select and some clearing and filling but it's ugly and slow.

View 8 RepliesI have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?

I'm trying to search for text that is known to be in a TextBox.
Once it is found, I want to return the line number it was found on.
Also, I would like to know how to delete all blank lines from a TextBox.
These two problems have been plaguing me for the last 2 days.
I have a non standard text file, ie its not delimted etc, its pretty much free flowing. What I want to do is to search for a specifc string eg. "xyz123" and then replace it with what a user types into a text box, lets call the text box and its contents "txtreplace".
I am trying to replicate a find and replace function essentially, but will need to tailor it later on down the line, but this will be a starting point.
I've created a private sub called addIRCRoom Which makes the Tab and the TextBox, but i can't figure out how to update the text in the TextBox.I've made this function to handle it:
Private Sub displayOut(ByVal Channel As Object, Optional ByVal User As String = "", _
Optional ByVal Message As String = "")
Channel.Text = "<" & User & "> " & Message & vbCrLf
End Sub
But i just get this error all the time: "Public member 'Text' on type 'String' not found."how to update the text

View 2 RepliesI have a small form that i open from several other forms with showdialog, as a little pop-up thing. Its used to sed SMS messages via an email to SMS service.Because it can be opened from several other "parent" forms i need to know which form opened it, and then i put some text in a notebox on the "parent" opening form.
Heres the code im using to open the form:
Private Sub Btn_SendSMS_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Btn_SendSMS.Click
SMSForm.TBMobileNumber.Text = Me.MobileNumberBox.Text
SMSForm.OpeningFormName = Me.Name

I have a label with name "Label15" and and a button "button1" on my form.
in my code :
Label15.text = "Button1"
dim myitem = label15.text
[code].....
this code does not work...when I put it in a msg box to show the error : it appears as buton1.performclick()and if I write button1.performclick() manually ,then it does the operation.I want to trigger the perform click operation from a textbox.text. Main error is:Public member 'PerformClick' on type 'String' not found.
I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out this error and what it means. Here is the code that is throwing the error,
For Idx = 1 To cboCallType.Items.Count - 1
[b]' If cboCallType.Items(Idx).Selected = True Then ' If Item is Selected[/b]
For I = 1 To cboCallType.Items.Count - 1 ' Set Index to look at the array
Public member 'Selected' on type 'String' not found. I'm assuming this error means you can't select a String in the combobox? I always thought you could, I'm just checking to see if one of the items were selected before moving on with the code, what other way is there to accomplish this and/or what does this error actually mean and how do I go about solving it?

I know there is a function Contains that returns true if string has a certain substing in it. But is there a function that returns the count of instances of that substring inside another string.

i have to search a string for a few words eg, dog, cat, lion but i want regex to fail if lizard is found in the string even if it contains cat, dog or lion.ismatch(pass) "dog|cat|lion" "This is not your average cat!"ismatch (fail) ??? "This is not your average cat! It's a lizard."??? - here the regex statement is unknown word spaces and boundaries or lower/uppercase is not a concern. I run the string through Replace(" ", "").Trim(" ").ToLower before handover to Regex.
