Writing Data To An ASCII Format?
Feb 16, 2010
I have data that has to be collected from my database and sent to a supplier's edi system. The file has to be in ascii format so their system can read it. I am writing what I see as an ascii format file but they say it's in edibc format when they receive it. I am posting my code and hopefully somebody here can help me out. Funny thing is that I have done this before successfully and am using virtually the same code but to no avail!!
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim filed As String = "Y"
' get records to be transmitted and plop them into an array list
Dim con As VICSClaimDAO = New VICSClaimDAOSQL()

If we have a string that contains for example "01_1A" in ascii, I would like to take first two chars and following two chars after mark and send it as hex format, like &H1 and &H1A.
Note that I would not convert ascii to hex. I am asking for something like &H(var).

I'm reading a txt file into an array and then writing a new file one line at a time. The reason i'm using array is that i'm searching for a few lines that i want to find and replace.
However in my file I have some ascii characters but they aren't read well. I read something about System.Text.Encoding.Default but I don't know how to implement it in my code.

I am trying to make a simple program to convert ascii in its code format
Example: Chr(53) & Chr(53) & Chr(54) & Chr(100) & Chr(52)
to a readable format. I understand that this can be easily accomplished by writing in the ascii code into the code will do it but I am trying to create a more interactive method of doing it so I can copy and paste a long length of code into a textbox and have it update a label with the conversion.

I need to create a Digital terrain model from ESRI ASCII grid format into an array. First I need to use the column and row values (from the header information) to read into my file to specify which values to put into the array. I think i have to use both counters simultaneously, and although Ive read in the first line (columns) I can't get the next line in. Do I have to use a counter under a different name, and can I do it in a nested loop?
vb.net
Private Sub Input_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Input.Click
dlgOpenASCII.ShowDialog()
filename = dlgOpenASCII.FileName

I am writing a 2D array to a text file.Is it digital map data, so I write each row at a time, and the format is readable by my map application.I have pasted the code below. The array is called edgegridArray. Everything else is pretty obvious. I don't know if streamwriter is the best way to do things,
Dim swr As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter("D:edgeoutput.txt")
swr.WriteLine("ncols " & cols - 2)
swr.WriteLine("nrows " & rows - 1)

I am using Microsoft.VisualBasic.Fileio.TextFieldParser to parse a CSV file that was created with Excel 2003. The parser is working great with the exception that it is converting extended ascii values to question marks! So if the file content was:
± 3
The TextFieldParser is returning
? 3
I have tried all of the encodings in the System.Text.Encoding package with no luck. I thought I had it with UTF7 but it was dropping other characters like replacing the + sign with a space.

I'm working on decoding a NMEA sentence that is a compressed 8-bit string. I'm having a very hard time of wrapping my head around the bit manipulation needed to convert this string. If someone could get me started with this it would be great.
Here is the incomming string:
!AIVDM,1,1,,A,14eG;o@034o8sd<L9i:a;WF>062D,0*7D
and here is the expected output:

I open the serial port and using a recieved data sub, pull data out of the input buffer.I then place the data on a textbox. Problem is, all I seem to get is "????xx??" of various different lenghts.How can I re-encode the data as ascii?
With SerialPort1
.ParityReplace = &H3B ' replace ";" when parity error occurs
.BaudRate = 9600
.Parity = IO.Ports.Parity.None

I found VB to be the easiest and best tool to process ascii data. I have a bunch of them (about 15), each is constructed differently, and I will receive monthly updates. the data is all the US flight navigation systems, like VORs, airports...etc. Some of the files have comments and explanations on top and bottom only, and the rest is heading and data at specific columns. Others are a little trickier, like the data for Jetways, its not continuous data, but it breaks for each jetway to identify it first, then plot the data in rows. What am ultimately trying to do is create a tabular version of some sort of this data to be used in my GIS database. Some of the fields needs to be combined ofcourse, like the latitude and longitude data is given in separate columns, but they need to be combined. I have pasted below a small sample of two different data files. [code]

There is a lot more to the file reading code, but it's proprietary and this is the part that keeps crashing. It runs fine loading the first two files, but when I try to open a third file, it crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS at the input.read((char*)names, numStringBytes); line. I don't see any reason that this should crash. I'm writing the binary files in VB.NET using the below code:
Dim myFS As New FileStream(savePath, FileMode.Create)
Dim encoding As New System.Text.UTF8Encoding()
Dim stringBytes() As Byte = encoding.GetBytes("++string")

We have the customers credit card number on file which we use simply to identify them when they swipe at our computer. The problem i'm running into is that when they swipe their card in the card reader (Magtek mini usb) it outputs the data as ASCII which looks something like %B followed by the credit card number in whatever textbox i have the program focused on. I'm sure i could just search the textbox for any 16 character number string and assume that is their card number, but i was just curious if there is some best practice to decript the ASCII output from the magnetic card reader.

So I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

I am using visual basic 2008 and trying to create an application to plot data from text files. I have several data files of various sizes. They have an unknown number of rows and either 2 or 4 columns.I need to put the data into 2 dimensional array, so value(,) becomes either value(lines,3) or value(lines,1) depending on the number of columns.My program needs to be able to count how many columns there are, and redim value(,) appropriately.I have written a piece of code to count the number of lines (rows) in the file using 'While not (EOF(1)) ....' but I'm stuck on how to count the number of columns.I could ask the user to indicate how many columns there are before the file is read, but I would prefer the program to detect the number automatically.

I am developing an app that will import numeric data and export it to various text files using ascii templates. I am basically converting the template file into a single string, replacing application fields in the string with {0}, {1}, etc... and adding the result into an array that is then passed to the String.Format(str_Template, Params()) to provide the final output. I have set it up so the template will use the standard VB.Net formatting syntax.
A simple template example:
{<prt_Mark>:G} {<prt_Qty>:F2} {<prt_Length>:F2} {<prt_Remarks>:G}

I need to write an application for receiving data (ascii characters) from microcontroller through the serial port in three separate parts. I've created three RichTextBoxes, but I do not know which commands I need to type. In first textbox I need to receive one byte... next six bytes need to be placed in second text box, and finally last seven bytes need to be placed in third textbox.

I am trying to write the TOURN structure and then read the TOURN structure back in.. the file gets created on my desktop and the program does not have any syntax errors, but when I READ the file none of the Data gets retrieved. So I am not sure if the DATA was actually saved or it is just not being retrieved?? This is what I have coded so far...

I currently have a program that, when I select an option from a drop down menu, will transmit a character to a microcontroller. I then have to click another option after 10 seconds to send another character. What I would like to do is modify this program to transmit one character for a period of 10 seconds, then transmit another value for another 10 seconds and so on for a defined period of time, say 30 seconds in total.
