I have the following code used to enter the name of a text file and then display it in a richtextbox. This is working but I would like it so that I could take out the initial part of the filename detailing the location of the filename to simply set it to the project folder, is there any way of doing this using the App.path function?
My code is as follows:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
I finished every piece of code in my program save for one tid bit, how to pull two numbers from a text file. I know how to pull lines, I know how to pull search strings, but I cant figure out this one to save my life.[code]The two numbers that I need out of this are the two ones that I put in the **'s (the asterisks are not normally there). These numbers will be different every time this sheet is generated, and the number placement might be different as well as some of the numbers could have 4 digits, 5 digits, or 6 digits.
I am loading a KJV.rtf file at program startup into RichTextBoxDisplay. When I want to select, lets say, Matthew Chapter 1, I want the program to take me to Matthew Chapter 1. I know I could just load a seperate file into the rtbDisplay, but do you know how many chapters and books are in the Bible..
I am busy with a Project that need to read and write txt files. I have found noumeorous tutorials on how to work with txt files, but none of them explain or or have an example how to do the following:
1) I want to have a button that, when it's clicked, it browse the PC in a specific location for a txt file, and open it in a TextBox1
2) I want to have a button that save text in a specific TextBox as a txt file, and you can name the txt file as you want?
In my winform application, user can able to select folderpath using browse button. This folder path will be displayed in textbox1 control. How to save this folderpath into an XML file when user clicked on Save button.
I tried to write a text written in my textbox to file.(a .txt). I scanned it to see if it contained any illegal characters, the program said that it did not. However, when I went to save it it said that the program performed an illegal operation.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was unhandled Message: Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A0005 (CTL_E_ILLEGALFUNCTIONCALL).
It created the text file but did not write the content of the textbox to the file.I can save the text in Microsoft word without a problem. Is there something wrong with the encoding for the textbox and how do I set the encoding for the characters so I can write it to a text file.
I found several examples on how to write to dataset, but most of them involve a ds.fill(..) from a data connection and I need a simpler solution. Basically I want to create an xml file from the values entered in a few textbox. I tried different methods but can't make it work. What is the best way to accomplish this? One method I used was to fill the textboxes from an xml, but now how do I write it back to the xml once the user has changed the data in the textbox?
I want to loop through the controls on a given form, if those controls contain controls then loop on those controls, get the final control and write ALL of its properties to a text file under the form_Control Name. Finally when the form loads it reads in that textfile and sets its properties.
I dont think the properties are set up as a collection, and therefore would probably have to know what the properties are for every control and program for each control, but i am hoping there's an easier way.
I am looking for a way to fine tune my applications by expsoing the properties in a text file and be able to manipulate the controls through the controls textfile.
I am using visual basic express edition 2008.How can I search for a word in a file then store that word?Also, how can I search for a Phrase in a file or a Textbox and store it in a different place?
Hi, i'm trying to use the treeview to display the text of a rtf (rich text file) file when an specific node if clicked.HomeOMGWOOTFor example, if i pick OMG, i want the text of lol.rtf to be displayed on a richtextbox. But somehow i just can't manage to get it... I know to import the text of a .txt file to a textbox, but using the treeview makes it more complicated.This is the code im using right now:
Private Sub TreeView1_NodeMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TreeNodeMouseClickEventArgs) Handles TreeView1.NodeMouseClick Select Case e.Node.Index Case 0
[code]....
Another thing is, that i can't import the *.rtf text into a richtextbox and i don't know why.

I've been writing a weight program for flooded pressure vessels and I'm having trouble retrieving the data from the text files I've been saving. I know how to write the data to the text file, but retrieving it with OpenFileDialog is not so easy for me.The user has individual text boxes that they input strings or numbers into and when they save the file, each text box input is written to one line in the text file. For example, the first text box is for the username, therefore the first line of text that is saved is the person's name, the second text box is the customer, thus the second line in the text file is the customer name, and so on.
(Actually, the first line of text in the saved file designates whether English units were used or Metric units because when the user retrieves the saved file, English units will open one form and Metric units will open a separate form, so some If...Then statement will need to occur).I need to be able to read the first line, have either my "EnglishForm"form open or my "MetricForm" form open, and then have each subsequent line of text be displayed in their corresponding text boxes. I know I need to use ReadLine or LineInput, but I don't have a clue what to do.Assuming the syntax I've displayed below would just magically work (if only life were that easy), it would look something like this
If FirstLineOfTextInFile = "English" Then EnglishForm.Show() ElseIf FirstLineOfTextInFile = "Metric" Then[code]....
And so on...I read a lot of articles from the MSDN library and exhausted each link that I've looked through from Google and Bing, but most only retrieve data from the file to a single text box through some loop or streamreader and don't take into account multiple forms.
I want to split each line at the comma and write the left side to a textbox and the the right side to another textbox. I'm close, with the code below, but I can only post results from the first line in the file. How do I loop this and append the text results in each of the textboxes.
Dim TempFile As String TempFile = "temp.txt" Dim sw As StreamWriter
I've been developing a arcade game, and as every good arcade game, it has an incorporated scoreboard so that players can see who scored better. My problem is that everytime it enters a new scoreline, it deletes all the previous lines in the text file. The code I've been using is the following:
If player1 > 25 Then objReader.Close() MsgBox("O " + jogador1 + " ganhou.")[code]............
I've got a program which displays data in a listbox in five columns. All are separated using one or more ControlChars.Tab. I want to write these columns to a text file, however, when I do, my columns lose their alignment. I can change alignment so that it displays nicely in text file, but then it is off in list box. Is there a way to get what I see in my listbox to display the same way in a text file - maybe a different way of separating my columns (not using ControlChars.Tab)?
I am trying to ping a text file("C:/Domains.txt") which is a list of domains, then have the resulting IP address written to a different text file ("C:/IP_Addresses.txt"). And this action will be done with a Button_Click.

I have a little question about txt-files...This is the case: I am going to make a small software for editing particular parts in text files, so you don't have to do it by hand. In this program, i need to find several words in a text file and retrieve the text or number that is after the the "="-sign, and then replace that info. Then, I want to use the information it retrieves to add some text in the end of the file.
P.S. There are 36 differet words to search for, and some of them will occur in several places, so i want the data from those words that occur several times in an array. And the data i want to retrieve is AFTER the searchword and a "=", so i dont want the searchword or the equals-sign included. Can someone explain to me how to do this?
I have a very large text file about 4 million lines that I would like to separate into several small text files based on the strings contained in the first column of the text file. I want to open the large text file, choose the lines that apply, create a new text file with a name that has a number at the end of which will match up with the value in the first column of the text file. I want to then copy the applicable lines to the new small text file, save and close it. I'm not sure how to go about doing this after opening the large text file and using the readline method. What if the folder does not exist? Do we have to create it? I want this procedure to be general, as there could be up to 25 million lines in the text file.
[code]I just want it to change item format in listbox (IP: 0.0000.0000.000 PORT: 8080 to 0.0000.0000.000:8080) and write that line to a text file located on desktop!
I have an SQL database, and 50 text files, and Visual Basic 2010 Premimum,I need to find a specific line of text in the text files and then take the next 37 lines of text and save them in my database. I need advice as to point me in the right direction
What I want to be helped is when I copy and paste the text into the Textbox, then I press the Button, it only display the numbers after the "Sqft :"It should be like this :
The texts and numbers are variable, it could be 2,203 or 8,232 or etc..., the "Sqft :" is fixed. Now what code should I use to make the Textbox display only the 4 numbers after the "Sqft :" ?
