Streamwriter And Strange Charactors - Opening The Streamwriter With Different Character Sets As The Third Parm?
Apr 21, 2010
I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

This append feature does not seem to work. I've looked in many places to no avail. The other examples below for writing and reading seem to be going fine.
Private Sub ApFile(ByVal textFilePath As String)
Dim objWriter As System.IO.StreamWriter = file.appendtext("textTBD")
objWriter.WriteLine("textTBD")

I am writing code in hopes to develop a template for estimating the cost of concrete driveways. The program is going to take information from several box's on the form then save some of the info in a ".txt" file. Next I want to be able to print off the ".txt" file without reformatting it. This is where i am having my troubles. I can retrieve my file but its all in one line. Is there a simple way to add a carriage return?

Dim fs As New FileStream("C:est.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite)Dim b As New StreamWriter(fs)
b.WriteLine("hellothere") : b.Close()
b.close is necessary to save changes to the file, but then, fs will be closed, too. is there any method that does the same thing but doesn't close fs, like "b.save"???

Trying to write a series of lines to a streamwriter in ASP.NET 3.5 VB.NET but I get an error 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' Here is the code
Dim sW As StreamWriter, iX As Integer = 0
For iX = 0 To 5
sW.WriteLine("SomeThing") 'Error occurs here
Next
My goal is to write a write a series of strings in different lines. This seems so simple but I don't see how the reference isn't set; I'm declaring two lines above.

I need them listed one under the other. Have I misplaced the Using statement?

I'm trying to write a CSV file with multiple fields. The data to be written is stored in a list(of string()). Using VB Filewriter.Write for each field, the process is real slow. Isn't there a way to format the data first and use Writeline once for each instance in the data store? Unfortunately, when I created a string with all the fields concatenated and separated by commas, the Writeline inserted quotes around the whole string. How do I prevent this behavior?

I have two identical projects. They both have exactly the same code. One is a windows service (installed as local system account) and the other one a windows form app.
I use streamwriter to create a txt file in C:Temp and put some data in it using the write method.
In the winform application the .txt file is created and everything works fine.In the windows service the .txt file never gets created?[ocde]...

VB 2005 now offers different methods to write/read a file, such as the File.WriteAllText, the My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText and the StreamWriter.Can anybody explain when is it better to use which method, which one is more efficient in term of memory/processor use and performance time?

Basically all I need is my program to write a character(Ex: "1") in a certain position specified by me in a line in a textbox.
So so far my code is:
Dim sw As IO.StreamWriter = IO.File.AppendText("101.txt")
sw.Write()
And all i need to know is how i pick the position that the .write function writes.

I am using streamreader and streamwriter to read a text file , change the text, then write to the same text file. This all happens in a loop every second or so.Currently I use:
Dim csetpointfileread As New System.IO.StreamReader("C:webcsetpoint.txt")and Dim csetpointfile As New System.IO.StreamWriter("c:webcsetpoint.txt", False)before every file read / write operation, it gets dimensioned every loop. To me this seems like a waste, and should only have to be dimentioned once. If I try to run both statements in the beginning, outside of the loop, the second statement wont work because the "file is allready open". Am I missing something or am I doing it correctly to begin with?

I've seen a lot of threads in respect to file access denial, but haven't really found one that suited my particular issue. In my application the part that's not permitting the file to be saved is in the below code. I have 21 text boxes that I'm writing to a file that when in the developmental environment (Visual Studio 2010) works just fine however, when I create a setup program and then install it to a directory I get the infamous "Access to the path 'C:Program Files (x86)Blah, blah' umbers.dat is denied." before uninstalling it I took a look at the permissions on the file itself and ReadOnly is not the issue. I tried looking at the FileIOPermission Class, but find anything that would work for me or perhaps I was doing something wrong. [code]

I want to create files based on the particular value of supplied recordset using the StreamWriter at RunTime. The files will be dynamic these will be create based on particular field.Example: If I have list of employees, I don't know from which city of the country they came from. I want to create a different files for every city and write those employees in to the corresponding files at runtime.
