i'm currently a student in a local polytechnic school, i was tasked to create a program that consisted in 3 parts which will bind together once it is done.at the moment, i have done the first part which is embedding video player into VB.now for the second part is that i'm stuck with, i need my VB to "read a text file which is space delimited and write into a access database" now my program is stuck at this and i do not know how to continue. i have been looking at alot of website for guide and codes but non are working.

I am trying to open a text delimited database using the jet.OLEDB.4.0 driver. My connection string is as shown here: Dim sConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & dataDir & "; Extended Properties=""text;FMT=Delimited( )"";"
I have read that you either need to alter the registry, or to add a schema.ini file containing information about the delimiter in order to recognize the delimiter. My question is if there is any way to do this without altering the registry or adding a schema.ini file, as both of these are unfortunately not an option. The only solution I currently see is to split each row, is this the only way out.
I am having some trouble including tab and space delimiters in my multiple delimiter code (see code below). It seems I can not just add the <vbtab> and <vbCrLf> codes into my delimiters list so I tried to replace them beforehand with a Clean String Function (also see code below) but it didn't seem to work. Ultimately, I would like to add any delimited text file to my datagridview.
The code below is working fine except for tabs and spaces (including next-to-each-other separators) I am using Visual Basics Express 2008.[code...]
I used this code for getting data from delimited text file into access database in VB6 and it is running Perfectly Same thing i want in VB.NET using OLEDB. So can anyone suggest me what code should i use..?
Other info: Database = mydatabase.mdb Table Name = SUBSCRIBER 4 Columns = NAME,AGE,GENDER,ID Text File = temp.txt
How would i get a certain text inside a textbox to equal that text space to space or null to space?
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If Textbox1.Text.StartsWith(Textbox2.Text + " ") And Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(Textbox2.Text) Then Textbox1.Text = Textbox1.Text.Remove(0, Textbox2.TextLength) Textbox3.AppendText("a") End If
Btw: after i finish this step my project will be finished!
I've got a problem in Importing Text delimited File to access Db , I always get an error "No value given for one or more required parameters'while execution [Select Into] Statement
[LEFT] Dim svdialog As New SaveFileDialog svdialog.Filter = "Access Database Files (*.mdb)/*.mdb" If svdialog.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel Then Exit Function
I am just trying figure out a record import program from text file into access database using Microsoft.Jet.Oledb Provider 4.0 and Vb.net. And it seems easy but my problem is different. In the text file, records are not delimited.
Format of the text file: Field Name & Size Date[Date,ShortDate]FirstName[20]LastName[20]Sex[1]Age[2]
[Code]....
Can I put delimiter programmatically while reading the text file using stream reader and later simply import the whole file in DB.
I am trying to import tab delimited text file to access table. The below code WORKS very well for csv file. when I try the same for tab delimited text it it importing all the fields into one column of the access table and combining the header files as one column.
I have a program that is running with a Data Connection to Database MS Access Office 2007. I maxed the Database at 1.97 GBytes of memory. I then inserted the Database into my VBasic Program and tried to compile. The compiler gave an error at the Me.ChemicalsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Chemistry2aDataSet.Chemicals)
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Me.ChemicalsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Chemistry2aDataSet.Chemicals) radPrefix.Checked = True

So I've been using VS2010 and haven't had too many problems transitioning over but I have an issue at the moment and I can't seem to find the answer...I have been using a little piece of code to insert comma delimited files to a database, which works great.Today, I received a Tab Delimited file from a client....obv I could edit, replace tabs with commas and move on but I want to know the right way to do this so I feel accomplished I've tried two ways so far1. This is the code I use for comma delimited with a slight change for the tabs -- PF refers to a class module that has the functions I use to get files and parse file paths
Dim Conn as New ADODB.RecordSet PF.InputFile = PF.GetFile("Select LMR Demo File", "") conn.Execute("SELECT * INTO [tmp_lmr] FROM [Text;Database=" & PF.InitLoc &
I need to be able to select a title from a listbox (lstBooks) and I need the data from a comma delimited text file (books.txt) to flow into a form (frmDetails)when I click the UpdateToolStripMenu button. Program is attached.

Now i'm coding for a project in VB.net that allow user to browse to text files (i am done), after that i have to import this text file into access.
The problem i have to import a pipe delimited file (it is: #), that '#' help to distinguish each filed.
Example: my text file is: #BC2323#23241#12345. This mean that: There are 3 fileds in it: BC2323; 23241; 12345.
There is my coding for browse any text file:
Private Sub btnBrowse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBrowse.Click Dim alltext, lineoftext As String OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.TXT"
I used to just code up a module that looked like this Ref to MS Access 11.0 Obj Lib was set
Dim myaccess as New Access.Application myAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application") myAccess.Visible = false myAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase("c:\path\databaseName.mdb")
But now it seems that even with that ref included, none of these commands exist. From what I've been reading online, to do this via .net, you have to parse the file out and create a serious of SQL inserts. I'm assuming/hoping/praying that there is a more efficient way to do this...
I need to be able to read common delimited text that the user enters into a text box. For example the text box would look like this:1,200,02,200,04,120,1203,200,120I need to be able to read the lines and put the data into a multi-dimension array with all the first values in column 1, all the second values in column 2, and all the thrid values in column 3.
I have a VB.net application that has three project in it. Two of the project are DLL with references in the primary project. I have a public Model "RegSaveGet" in the primary project listed below. When I look for the namespace for the module from one of the DLL projects I can not see it. I want to use this module from the two DLL projects. I can only see it from the primary project.
I have a text file with ";" as a delimter but I am not able to seperate the text, I am able to read one line at a time using ReadLine Function but I can not find a way to separate columns from this line.
I'm trying to parse a text file. First I plan on extrcating each line, then extracting each field by searching for a tasb.When I use InStr to search for a (return for end of line) or (for tab) I always get a zero. But if I put in a visable letter such as a I got a 5.also I tried /r, /n and all return a zero.The file looks as follows:
I have been able to load a drop down meny with a file, but the file is comma delimited. I tried to use the split function to only read the first part of the file before the comma, but I'm getting an erroHere's what I'm doing:
Dim Arts As New IO.StreamReader(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory & _ "Artist.txt") Do Until Arts.EndOfStream
I've got a problem reading in a Tab-Delimited text file. There's an extra tab in one of the fields its reading it thats not a delimiter, and it's throwing off me reading the file into a table. This specific file does have quotations around that field though.
What would be the best way to take that tab out before splitting the row by vbTab?
Im reading each line in the text field like this, splitting on vbTab. X is a string array
This is my first program that I'm trying to write. I have been trying to make an application to run a date filtered query against a SQL server and output the results into a txt file that I define. I believe that my code is close for getting the data. I cannot figure out how to actually write the data into a text file. I am trying to use the datareader and streamwriter, but I am not sure what to put in the streamwriter.Write() function to actually get it to past the lines in the text file.
After some thinking, I think I figured out how to read delimited text. I was just curious as to whether it'd be better to use StreamReader.ReadLine or File.ReadAllLine or if it matters at all? I'm assuming the ReadLine method would be better if I'm working with a larger file since ReadAllLine would store the entire thing in memory? Here's my code - I'm reading from a text file and displaying into a listview.
File.ReadAllLines Dim lines() As String Dim parts() As String lines = File.ReadAllLines("C:lah.txt") For Each line As String In lines parts = line.Split("|") [Code] .....
I previously asked a question about my meeting planner app, and how to delete a specific entry in the array. Someone had the interesting suggestion of using a ArrayList, instead of a normal array. I am attempting to learn ArrayList, but to no good result. I can't even get the ToString method to work correctly to write what I want it to into a text file.[code]...
My plan is to have each of those three fields to have their own entry in the ArrayList, but when it is saved to text file, those three fields are comma delimited to a line for each appointment. Of course when the text is loaded, it will have to be converted back. Can anyone point me in the right direction or have any other method of going about this with the ArrayList?
what would be the easiest way to open a comma delimited text file - each field is surrounded by quotes - and then analyze this file to find the record with the most fields being used? right now i bring the file into and access db then loop through each record to see if there is any data.
