Jul 27, 2011I have a text file like this:
name=xyz
user=asdfjklas
etc...
i need to have a string called name with "xyz" in it, and a string called user with "asdfjlas" in it.
I have a text file like this:
name=xyz
user=asdfjklas
etc...
i need to have a string called name with "xyz" in it, and a string called user with "asdfjlas" in it.
I need to take this string of words and separate them by each " " encountered. Then I need to place them into my list. How can I accomplish this? here's the code I have so far:
Dim txtLine as string = "Easter never homage entrance"
Dim spaces, subStart As Integer
spaces = txtLine.IndexOf(" ")

I created a telephone number form where the user enters the telephone number in a text box as (nnn) nnn-nnnn. The first 3 digits in parenthesis are the ISD code, the next three are the area code and the last four are the local number. I need to separate out these three fields of the phone number and display in three separate text boxes labeled appropriately. Now, suppose the user enters the phone number in a text box as a continuous string of 10 digits, where the first three represent the ISD code, the next three represent the area code and the last four represent the local number. I'm lost as how to change this string into the form (nnn) nnn-nnnn. This is what I have

I need some assistance because I still coming up empty on how to open up a text file and replace some words then save it as another name.
View 3 RepliesI am using the following code, but cannot get this to work. I have got it to work if the replacement is just of one word. So if the word test is replaced by mouse and the only thing in the file is the word test, it works.
How can I replace like this:
CH_IPVOD_filename.mpg > replace the CH_IPVOD_ with nothing for the result of:
filename.mpg
?
I would like to replace every instance of ch_ipvod_ with nothing.

I am reading a text file in which has three colums of information i.e.
00100 25690 21586
23510 25694 24856
25896 45478 52897
58745 59687 12364
I want to read the whole file, and split the colums so each set of numbers is put into an array to be used as an input for later. If the text file only contains one line of numbers like 00100 25690 21586, I have written a code to seperate those and put them into an array which is attached. If the text file contains more than one row of numbers I can read the whole file in line by line but I can't get the strings seperated.

View 5 RepliesI have found a list of words [URL] that I saved as a txt. I want to be able to cycle through it with my program I am making. I have a string and I want it to change everytime that timer3 is finished, timer1 will use it again.
An example:
dim theWord as String
timer1.tick....textbox1.text = "It is a " & theWord " day!"end sub
timer2.tick....Whatever I have this doend sub
timer3.tick...theWord = the next word in the listend sub
How would I accomplish this? Anyone better list of words than 850 in txt format.

there is no sequence like tab delimited, comma delimited or CL/LF, so it need to search on every prefix series and fetch entire serial number. But i have no clue how to write code in vb.net 2005.

View 7 RepliesSo my issue is that I created program that writes a text file in several lines but I am having trouble reading those lines in separate labels on another program. I don't want them in one label but separated with one word to one label.
how can I put a counter on the time a new file is added to the program? I can't seem think of a code for it.
This is my coding so far but I feel like it's not really giving me anything

I have been trying to find out how to do this for days now, so I am finally asking how. I am newish to programming. Here is my problem.
I am trying to extract x,y,z coordinates from a text file arranged as such:
x,y,z
x,y,z
x,y,z
etc.
I need to be able to extract the x column into an array, the y into an array, and the z into an array. I learned how to pull it into a string, and how to split for every line, but i don't know how to split after each comma and separate them.
I have a text file stored as a string variable. The text file is processed so that it only contains lowercase words and spaces. Now, say I have a static dictionary, which is just a list of specific words, and I want to count, from within the text file, the frequency of each word in the dictionary. For example:
Text file:
i love love vb development although i m a total newbie
Dictionary:
love, development, fire, stone
The output I'd like to see is something like the following, listing both the dictionary word and its count. If it makes coding simpler, it can also only list the dictionary word that appeared in the text.
WORD, COUNT
love, 2
development, 1
fire, 0
stone, 0
Using a regex (eg "w+") I can get all the word matches, but I have no clue how to get the counts that are also in the dictionary, so I'm stuck. Efficiency is crucial here since the dictionary is quite large (~100,000 words) and the text files are not small either (~200kb each).
i can open a text file with 196000 words to listbox1. can i pick out 10 random words out of listbox1 to listbox2 by clicking button2? and if i click button2 again can it shuffle to a new words?

I have a text file with an unknown amount of words, typed out like this:tastymuffinsaredeliciousWhat I need is a counter that will tell me how many words there are, and in this case (besides a tasty muffin), there are 4 words.

The only "major" project I have completed using VB is a computer calculator that exactly mimics the capabilities of Windows 7's calculator. Yesterday, I began a Chatbot program for my girlfriend. Lol. I have used the instr() function to answer most of the questions or answers which are typed into the textbox1. I find this extremely troublesome because when using the instr() function you cannot say instr(textbox1.

Anyway, I'm a teacher and am writing a program that simply shows kids a word on a flashcard. There are 2 buttons, 1 to read the word and 1 to go to a new work. There are going to be 300 words. Really I'm just testing it right here. What I want to know is should I be inputting all the words right into the code like I did with "hi" and "not 1" (Don't ask. those are just the 2 random words I picked to test this out with). OR is there a better way (maybe somehow to type all the words on a text file and have the program randomly pull one of them (I don't know how to do this).
Here is the code so far:

Need to design a program that can encrypt and decrypt messages stored in simple text files using a private key stored in a separate file. Software should also be able to allow the users to enter simple messages that either displays the encrypted or decrypted message. The encryption method should use a simple substitution method. It should be set out in the following format:
Example (the "@" is the separator):
@
The character The Code End of line
A @ 4gh EOL
B @ 84!9 EOL
Has to use the 256 ASCII character codes. The separator will be used to separate the character and its corresponding code.Here are the pseudocodes I have come up with:
� Read any private key file
separator = readline(file);
while not EOF(file) do
tempStr = readline(file);

I've got 2 RTB one is for input of text and one is output.The output one needs to read the words from the input and display it alphabetically and with their line numbers.I have partly done it and it currently reads it but here is my problem When the words are outputted let say for example there are 2 words the same on the same line e.g the word 'you' appears twice on line one,at the moment its coming up like this

I am currently trying to separate my text into groups of 5.For example.
Original text is ABCDEFGHIJK.I am trying to make the output to something like this ABCDE FGHIJ K.Using textbox for it
I'm at a bit of a standstill with my current project. I have text output something along the lines of:
ID Accessed By Type Open File (Pathexecutable)
------------------------------------------------------------------
7 USERNAME Windows C:Program Files (x86)Adobe
15 USERNAME Windows C:..AdobeReader 10.0
etc...
Instead of displaying this into a textbox for the user (which is what it currently does), I wanted to display this into a listview instead. I'm just stuck on how I would be able to separate the pieces of data in this string into listview items since these objects wont always be the same. I'm not expecting anyone to write the code FOR ME, no. BUT, rather just some pointers on how to go about this.
Ok, Im developing a scripting tool for the program "FPS Creator". The scripting uses of course commands which are split into to groups (Action and Condition)
Anyway to the point :
I need the Actions and Conditions to be coloured so the user knows when the command is correct or incorrect.
i am trying programming a program that open a txt file then get specfic data from each line then put the data1 in a textbox1 and data2 in textbox2.[code]and for each time i don't now the username or the password i want the programe to search in line 1 the word between "user=" to "" and the word between "password=" to "".I created the text reader and i hope that same one can help complete the project.[code]
