any one can help for that:-
actually i want to select any line from 1st text file and want to paste for it in to the second text file.

You can't. You can read any line you want, then you need to read the second text file, insert the line, then write the entire file. You can't just insert a line into a file.
VB2005 has My.FileSystem to do this stuff with. But, it makes more sense to use System.IO.File.ReadAllText and WriteAllText directly, so you know where it is if you ever need to use C#.

Actually i want read a line from 1st text file and search this line in the second text file( which had the string as in 1st txt file and equivalent localized string) and then copy this localized string from 2nd text file and replace with the 1st one.
Thanks in advance!

Your problem is the same. You still can't replace text in a file, you still need to read all of the file in, change it in memory and save it all out again.

I have a need of importing the .DAT files into the application.
The first row in the file is considered as header and rest for data, The data is seperated by TABDelimiter.
Any suggestions plz....

There are a plethora of articles on this site for dealing with CSV files. Take one and replace the comma with a tab.

I had tried that before, but its not working.
As the file type is .DAT, there is some problem with the connection string b'cause when i opened the connection and tried to assaign the data to a datagridview its throwing an error stating "ERROR [42000] [Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only."
The code is as follows....
Private Sub ConnectDAT()
ds = New DataSet()
Dim sql_select As String
Dim strConn As String = "Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};Dbq=" + TextBox1.Text.Trim() + ";Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;Persist Security Info=False"
' The connection string is given as "Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};Dbq=D:\Folder;Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;Persist Security Info=False"
Dim conn As OdbcConnection
conn = New System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection(strConn.Trim)
conn.Open()
sql_select = "select * from [" + strCSVFile + "]"
obj_oledb_da1 = New System.Data.Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter(sql_select, conn)
obj_oledb_da1.Fill(ds, "CInfo")
DataGridView1.DataSource = ds
DataGridView1.DataMember = "CInfo"
conn.Close()
End Sub
Can you help me...in solving the problem...

The file extension has nothing to do with it. It is the contents for the file that are important. You have described a tab separated file.

Why are you using an ODBC connection at all? There are hundred of examples of a CSV reader, quite a few here on CodeProject, that work perfectly well without resorting to inefficient kludges like ODBC. Look for those projects and change the comma to a tab (like I already suggested)

Hi everyone!
I'm relatively new to VB.NET and I want to write a resistance evaluation tool for school.
How do I check which value of a combobox is selected?
And can I give the different values different background colours?

Is this VB6 ? It looks like a bunch of p/invoke code. go to www.pinvoke.net to find out how to do the pinvoke part, and the rest is trivial.

Does anyone knows how to detect memory card/storage card from a smart device using vb.net CF ? The challenge is because there are many brands and versions of PDA, means that the naming of the storage device might be different as well. I want to get the drive name of the storage device. Thanks in advance

Can somebody tells me why it won't populate my listbox with avi files in C:\Video? Can somebody fix the code here?

What happens when you step through the code ? Should the search string be *.avi ?

Sorry I had to redesign some of your code but it should work.
Dim strPath() As String <br />
Dim strSearch As String <br />
strPath = IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:\video")<br />
<br />
For Each strSearch In strPath<br />
If InStr(strSearch, ".avi", CompareMethod.Text) Then<br />
ListBox1.Items.Add(strSearch)<br />
End If<br />
Next
Tell me if it does
Hope this helps

Sorry guys for the late reply, actually the code I pasted before does work. There was something wrong with my listbox properties so that the files found isn't visible on the listbox. I deleted the listbox and create a new one and now it runs fine  Sorry again..
Thanks anyway

Dim frm2 As New Form2<br />
frm2.Showdialog() <br />
end sub
Where button1 is the button that you click on to show the new form.
Where form2 is the name of the form you want to show.
Hope this helps

Please, never do this. If you call Show and not ShowDialog, the form should be a member variable.

Oops my mistake.
I should of known better, I usually do use showdialog instead of show.
The code works though.
I'll just change it.

If you use ShowDialog, you also MUST call Dispose on the object when your done with the form. A resource leak will result if you don't.
