View 6 RepliesOnce a user has selected a file with the open file dialog, how can I handle this action? For example, if the user has selected a .txt file and has opened it, how can it get the data from the file? How can it return the path that the user found the file in? Then, how can it save the file?I know that there is a OpenFileDialog.OpenFile() method, but I am also pretty sure this is not what I am looking for. I have also tried the ToObject method, but I probably messed up somehow.
View 3 RepliesI saved a file with the extension .doc. I use the RichText to write and save the text. I did not set any encoding type when I saved it.

How do I open and re-open a .doc file in the Rich Text box control without the formatting showing up in the box with the document contents?

Why would a .sln solution file open and appear empty in Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express - i.e. no windows showing projects and code files etc.When I inspect the file in a text editor, it contains references to vbproj files (which are present) which indicate that it should not appear as empty.No error messages are reported when the file is opened.

I've noticed that when you click on a web page in Windows Explorer, or open a file in general, and the default application to open it is internet explorer, ie opens and opens the file. However, when I tried this on my Web Browser it opened, but ignored the file and went on its usual routine. How can I get my Web Browser to open and open the file that was clicked on in explorer?

View 3 RepliesI am once again working on a project and have hit an absolute wall! Here is what I'm trying to do:
1. Create a Userform that has one textbox and one button.
2. Have the user enter text in the textbox and press enter.
3. Once enter is pressed have the form take the data they typed into the textbox and search a specific .txt file (beginning the search from bottom to top to find the most recent entry) until it finds a match.
4. Take the latitude and longitude to the right of the match and convert them to proper form. Right now my SQL provides live updates to the .txt file only the lat/lon come accross as |-112053440|33427640|, so I need to insert decimals in the correct places.
5. Either way, they type "c123" it will search until it matches that then take the latitude and longitude that is to the right of the match.
6. Convert the latitude/longitude into proper format because if it pulls the data as is it will appear as[urls]...
