You need to specify the writing mode as being:

IO.FileMode.Append

Just to echo what has been said before:

45000 lines in a combo box = pure daftness

You need to think of a redesign!!!

That looks like an 'attribute' within an xml file.

Therefore it would be sensible to use consider it as an xml object and use the methods associated with that.

Yeah you could use the above method or another one:

pad the strings:

Dim str1 As String = "My String"
Console.WriteLine(str1.PadLeft(20, "-"))
Dim str2 As String = "My String"...

If it works it works, but I'd recommend reading up on classes as they form an integral part of code design.

An idea but not necessarily the best,

you could write it to the registry.

Installation requires the dotnet framework 2.0 etc.

So you may need to check that on the client machine.

The professional version comes with an installer, the express version doesn't. (I think)...

You mean declare a class and have the those objects in a one dimensional array?

Try pointing to the absolute path, or get rid of the first backslash in \interestrates.txt

The file should be kept in the same directory as where your program is ran.

Normally the debug.exe...

Yes this is possible.

How do I pass an arrayList to a function?

1) Drag a listbox onto your form
2) Drag a button onto your form


Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles...

Shouldn't you be saying something like:
if mBool = true Then
as opposed to:

if mBool Then

Surely this is just a case of getting the algorithm and then convert it to vb.net syntax

That's a massive request.

I'd look at some basic tutorial about using vb.net and sql/access.

The video ones are quite good.

Another alternative would be to use just a text file. That would...

Possibly yes

Well I guess that's how microsoft make their money. The express edition is perfect for everything, expect database programs. I found with sql express there wasn't any option for adding other...

>SQL Server 2005
Probably requires $$ or the professional version of vb.net 2008. I think the number of client connections is clipped on the express edition.

As long as it is a simple text file and not a word document or something else, I don't see the problem here.

You just need to look at a file i/o tutorial

It is a bad idea trying to read pdf files because the text could have been generated in any way.

Add a new form to your project.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Me.Hide()
Dim...

Incorrect, trim does replace line breaks and spaces. Please prove me wrong but you won't.

I have just tested it:


Dim nl As String = System.Environment.NewLine
Dim test As String = " ...

1) Drag a text box onto your form. Make sure the multiline option is true
2) Drag a button onto your form


Imports System.io

Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender...

Ever heard of Trim(). Use it!

ListBox1.Items.Add(Prc(x).ProcessName)

That looks way too complicated.
I would just skip the first line as you read it in from the text file. Simple enough.

> your code seems right...
+ 1

Nah I get the same problem, in the end I just abandoned writing directly to excel.

Hmm I wonder if you are using vb or vb.net - this is the vb.net forum.

Sure which part are you having trouble with?

You need to create an event handler so that when you click on a node(either parent or child) it recognises which one as a string.

Then you can open the text file using that string(path)

It's...

>I'd recommend keeping the words on a MSSQL backend (or Access)

No offence but that is overkill, for something this simple. Given the experience of the OP, or lack thereof, storing the words in an...

If you're completely new to programming I'd recommend getting a book.

It is a bad idea reading it from word, although you could probably do it.

I would copy the tables into an excel file and then save it as a .csv file.

It would be much easier to parse.

>I have created database containing only one tables.

WWWWWWWWWhat?

One table, there is your problem/

Solution:

Look in both C: and D: :)

Yes it is possible.

Google using copying stuff to clipboard and then calling a process to open notepad.

Use one version of word across all computers...

Yeah sorry, I missed that. See the above example though, it looks good.
