I have two multiline textbox call txt1 and txt2. Each line on txt1 will be filled with name while txt2 will be filled with age. I wish to loop throught both txt1 and txt2 and fill them into an arraylist using User class. I was only able to fill in the name but have no idea how to append the arraylist to add in the age.

I am trying to do this but it doesn't work:
VB
Dim str As String = "07" & GetBetween("Stephen 0761234567", "07", vbNewLine)Dim op As String = "lol" TextBox1.Text.Replace(str, op)
GetBetween is just a function to match something between something else. That works fine, the string (str) sets as 0761234567 just like I want but when i try to replace the text it doesn't work.
Sorry if this seems like I haven't searched, however I have. Maybe I'm not understanding something or maybe I just haven't found what I need. Anyway my question is this. How would I find multiple strings in a text file and replace them? So far I've been able to find out how to replace a single string with:

What I basically have is a small game which I want to count wins/loss/ties. I have no problem with the game aspect but need to know how I can replace a string in a csv file. IE: If Jim wins the game, his 5 needs to be turned to a 6. After googling quite a while I came across the replace() function, but it doesn't actually rewrite it back to the text file

The issue I have, is if I try to use any sort of IO function after this (WriteAllLines, streamwriter, etc) - I get a process is being used and can't touch the file (because its being read).Must I somehow create a new file with a copy of everything including the replaced string?
I 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.

Not sure what I am doing wrong here but I have 2 buttons and a rich text box. The issue is when I click the second button to add text to the rich text box and it over writes the current text that is already in the rich text box. How can I code this second button so that the text is added to the rich text box and not replacing the current text?

I'm building a program in which it asks for your name and age and determines a ticket price based upon these details. I want it to show the person's name, then their age, (jump down a line) then their ticket price, and then it jumps down a line to show the next person's name, age and ticket price. Issue is, when it's meant to jump down to show the next person, it just completely deletes the last person's details.I'm using this line of code:
TxtFareShow.Text = (Name & Age & vbCrLf & Price) & vbCrLf
How do I fix this?

I have a pop up form that contains a listbox. Right now I am telling it exactly which text boxes I want to be able to drag and drop to, but I was just told to have it drag and drop to every text box on the main form.The main form with the text boxes has a bunch of tabs on it that hold each section. Each section has text boxes, so how would I code it so they are all capable of allowing drag/drop without specifying each one separately?
This is the code from my pop up form:

View 6 RepliesI have some large csv files (1.5gb each) where I need to replace specific values. The method I'm currently using is terribly slow and I'm fairly certain that there should be a way to speed this up but I'm just not experienced enough to know what I should be doing. This is my first post and I tried searching through to find something relevant but didn't come across anything.
My other thought would be to break the file into chunks so that I can read the entire thing into memory, do all of the replacements there and then output to a consolidated file. I tried this but the way I did it actually ended up seeming slower than my current method.

I insert a text box into form1. I move the mouse pointer on top of the text box. I press down on the left mouse button and begin to drag the text box. The problem is when I let go of the mouse button the text box is not dropped. it remain floating around. My only way out of this is to press the escape key which places the text bnox bak to its original location. Thinking that it might be my mouse I tested it in Power point and everything works correctly.

The database itself is located on a server so not deployed with the program. Once installed it all runs absolutly fine with no problems. Now If I rebuild the program from VS without any changes to the code what-so-ever then get the exe for the program out the 'Release' folder and overright the one on my local machine where its installed I can still run the program but the second its asked to interact withe the database its comes up with the OLEDB12 error basically saying I don't have the provider installed or registered.
