Simple Name And Address Tracker File That Can Enter Data And Save It As A File
Dec 14, 2010
I am new to using visual basic 2005. I have a tutorial book and I have followed it but it does not help me understand. I have a limited understanding of the net framework and the drag and drop features.
What I want to know is this: How do I make a simple name and address tracker file that I can enter data and save it as a file. The book does not cover this proceedure but It is what I want to do.
IE: Start VB2005 start new windows app. Name (whatever) drag 2 label's and 2 textbox's and one button for saving data entry. I want this program to enter name in textbox1 (press enter) then enter address in textbox2 (press enter) then save file (whatever name) when you click the button.

I have a bound datagrid which I fill from various search options that are available to the end user.Currently I have one of the columns (status) set as a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn with a collection of two items. 'Open' and 'Closed'When the I select for example 'Closed' and hit the 'Update' button an exception is passed with the caption'Update unable to find TableMapping['Tracker'] or DataTable 'Tracker''I have been looking at hope the mapping works for the last 3 hours but getting nowhere fast and I really need to get this project completed by the end of the week.The bound controls are:
Binding Source = BS
Data Member = Tracker
Data Source = TrackerDataSet

I have a form with a listbox that when the form is opened I need it to display info from a file. I don't know what would be easier to work with Excel or a txt file, but it is in this format:
Phillip Frank
3/19/1990
3
999-555-8618[code].......
I would like it to populate the list box when the form is loaded, but if I have to use a button to tell it to load that is fine also.On the same form I have 4 textboxes that ask for each of the above items (name, DOB, Level, PH#) and a button that when pushed I want it to save it to the same file where the above info was pulled from in the same format.The Show Contacts button doesn't have to be used if it is not needed.

I have about 4000 objects of a class, each object with 20 members/variables, integers and strings, total about 80000.
I would like to save these to a file, and read them back into objects when the program starts up.
How would I do this in order to keep track of each variable? I was planning to have each line in the file representing the variables of 1 object. Hence 4000 lines. But basically I'm just looking for the easiest way to save and retrieve this data. Should I first convert the objects to an array of strings?

I'm trying to use an XmlTextReader to read simple XML data from a file I wrote using the XmlTextWriter class. I've very little experience with XML and reading/writing from it, so it's been a little struggle. The writing part went OK though, but I can't really figure out how to do the reading. All examples I found using google handled it all slightly differently, and none made it really clear what they were trying to read...I am storing the position, size and a filepath of MDI windows using this format:
xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<MDIForms>
<Form X="208" Y="95" W="424" H="277">C:UsersNickDesktopabc.plm</Form>
[code].....
obviously I cannot do what I want with this. I need to get the attributes in each element too, and I need to read multiple elements and do something for each element...

I have this Quiz software that lets you create online multiple choice quizzes which are great for studying (I am in grad school and I'm trying to use everything I can to learn). So the Quiz software is great but it only lets you input questions by hand, one by one. I took a look at the .xml file that the quiz program spits out and came up with the idea to try and make a converter so that I can import many questions at once. I was hoping to try and solve this limitation by doing the following:
Take a .doc that say a tutor gives us with a bunch of practice questions, and then take that into Crimson Editor, and then format it so the question is on line 1, the multiple choice answers are on lines 3,4,5, and 6, (for the next question, the question would be on line 11, and the answers on lines 13, 14, 15, and 16, and so on) and then take that saved .txt file into my program, hit the generate button, and it will spit out the .xml file, and then import that into the quiz software to generate the online quiz.
Here is an attached screenshot of my program layout so far:
I figured out how to open a text file by watching simple youtube tutorials, but I don't know how to have it generate the stuff and have it show up in the bottom text box. I know how to do the coding to convert the txt to proper xml code but I don't know how to be able to save the contents of the bottom text window to an xml file.

I have been reading about ADO, SQL, datasets, data adapters etc and have gone into information overload. My next step is to create a simple data file of my own that I can manipulate, update, sort etc in VB Express. Do I need another piece of software? I read about MySQL, which I understand is primarily used to access databases on the net, but can that be used to create a simple local data file on my PC? Can you simply hard code something in VB Express?

I am using visual basic 2008 and trying to create an application to plot data from text files. I have several data files of various sizes. They have an unknown number of rows and either 2 or 4 columns.I need to put the data into 2 dimensional array, so value(,) becomes either value(lines,3) or value(lines,1) depending on the number of columns.My program needs to be able to count how many columns there are, and redim value(,) appropriately.I have written a piece of code to count the number of lines (rows) in the file using 'While not (EOF(1)) ....' but I'm stuck on how to count the number of columns.I could ask the user to indicate how many columns there are before the file is read, but I would prefer the program to detect the number automatically.

Hi, I need to program a simple Web Browser that can search for keywords and store relevant data in another file.I am facing a problem with authentication, mainly cookies and maintaining a session.So I read that Web Browser Control is based on I.E.? So may I know how are cookies and session handled?Do I have to implement them manually or are they stored and retrieved from the same folder as the one used in I.E? If so, if I delete the I.E.'s cache, am I also deleteing the cache of any Web Browser I make using Web Browser Control?

That title is really confusing I know. But I will try and make sense of this.If you drag a file onto a rich text box, it will add this little watermark-ish thing with the file extensions icon, and the file name.
Is there a way that I can get that files address, upon a certain event?

Tag and image files. All my files are .gif files and all have the same format. However, some of my 'objects' are located at different positions on the image. I would like to store the position in a Tag and save the Tag with the file. This is what I did..
Code:
dim pathload As string = "C:\myfile.gif")
dim picViewer1 As New PictureBox
Sub graphlocationsave()
[Code].....
I know the data get store in the Tag, but I do not know if its not saved, or I am not retriving it correctly or if this is the wrong way to do this altogether ?

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 have an account with a website and I want my software to automatically download files that are generated.
I go to the website and login, and then I click a link that downloads a file. Unfortunately, I can't use the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile function, because the first argument of that function is a file address (http:// www . website . html/file.txt). Instead of that, the address if I look at the link to download the file is something like this (http:// www . website . com/pid=1&output=csv&action=view&pview=pview).
You see how this won't work? I'm looking to use my software to automatically download the file that's available, but I can't use the DownloadFile function.

How do I get it so that when I click a button on a windows form, it exports the text in a textbox to a .txt or .xml file. I need it to add the data to one text file, not create a new one every time the button is clicked.
