Hello, I have a problem not far from the one quoted above, namely retrieving data from a text file containing the log file, and then convert each value and come out the graphic representation. And so far my code is not working as it should, and I just can not seem to get them all as it should, and suddenly I have need your aide.Thx advance.

the logfile is located in a folder in my computer, turning and with the low end of code if I try to read all the values ​​of the text, but without success, because the values ​​are read, but not all.

private void openToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            String Choosen_File = "";
            OpenFD.InitialDirectory = "Y:";
            OpenFD.Title = " Open a LoggFile";
            OpenFD.FileName = "";
            OpenFD.Filter = "Textdokument|*.txt|World Documents|*.doc|Microsoft Excel-Arbeitsblatt|*.";
            //"TextFiles|*.txt|Word Documents|*.doc";
            if (OpenFD.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.Cancel)
            {

                Choosen_File = OpenFD.FileName;
                richTextBox1.LoadFile(Choosen_File, RichTextBoxStreamType.PlainText);

            }

            else
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Cancel Button Clicked");

            }


        }
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // Read in a file line-by-line, and store it all in a List.
             
                using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(OpenFD.FileName))
            {  
                  
                string line = null ;
               
                String[] StArr = null;
                char [] _Delimiters_char = {' ', ';', ','};
                int count = 0;
                

                  
                while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
                {   
                    StArr =line.Split(_Delimiters_char);
                   
                    for (count = 0; count <= StArr.Length - 1; count++)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show(StArr[count]);
                        
                    }
                        
                }

Can you tell me what is you encoding scheme?

Change you button2_click event in

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
       String[] StArr = null;
                char [] _Delimiters_char = {' ', ';', ','};
                int count = 0;
    foreach(String line in richTextBox1.Lines)
                {   
                    StArr =line.Split(_Delimiters_char);
                   
                    for (count = 0; count < StArr.Length; count++)
                    {
                        MessageBox.Show(StArr[count]);                        
                    }                        
                }        
        }

It is working fine here Can you tell me the exception or the error you are encountering

Daten have been send from an energy regulator in Logfile, and I want to read the File characters after characters, then i can save them in an array, and convert them, and make a graphic of the regulation according to temperature and the time .But my code so far do not work, it does not read allcharacter of the characters Logfile, let alone one letter as it should

oh it means to read the characters of file not strings?

Yes every character,one after the other,save it and late make a graphic of it

ok then try adding this code in you button2_click

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            String[] StArr = null; char[] _Delimiters_char = { ' ', ';', ',' };
            int count = 0;
            foreach (String line in richTextBox1.Lines)
            {
                StArr = line.Split(_Delimiters_char);
                for (count = 0; count < StArr.Length; count++)
                {
                    for (int j = 0; j < StArr[count].Length; j++)
                       listBox1.Items.Add(StArr[count][j]);                   
                }
            }
        }

it is good,but it never read every character,try it wit this Logfile,you will what i am talking about thx in advance

I understood but these characters are in some coding scheme try decoding them

allright

yes i have allready decode it,and now i am suppose to represente it in a 2D graphic,in my X Axis(Date and hour) in my Y axis temperature,and all the value of Flr1;Flr2;Flr3;Flr4;Flr5;Flr6;Flr7;Flr8;Flr9;Flr10;Aus1;Aus2;Aus3;Aus4;Aus5;Aus6;Aus7;Aus8;Spg1;Spg2;Spg3 are suppos to be represented

May somebody give an answer please....

Seems you can translate a binary file into a textfile, so what is the problem of extracting date,time and value strings out of it? Please be VERY clear in your answer.
I live in Belgium, next to your country so I also don't normally speak or write English. I often use this site to help me out.

Hello, I must carry out a program in My problem major is that I absolutely never made similar. The objective of my program is to recover certain present data in a file text, and then to trace a chart of these data. I work with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.
the values are those located higher in my precedent post, I must thus save all the values recorded under Flr1 (38.9 ..... 39.0) and Flr2 (21.8….21.8) so on up to the Spg3 values the same scenario, and on the axis of the abcisses one will have the date and the time while on the y-axis will be to represent the temperatures (the values record under Flr1 ....... Spg3)
Thank you for your assistance and good day

Thx but that but my question still open

Do you have new question?

yes the last question on page 2,Topic:search and save von data in a textfile

Would you mind writing the question in words? So we can all understand what are you trying to do?
