Import From Text Csv

From here, you’ll see the Text Import Wizard, which walks you through the steps of importing a CSV or other text file. First, you’ll need to select the original data type. When you’re using a CSV file, you’ll want Delimited. Subject: [visualbasic-l] Import text / csv using VB I want to import a text/csv file into a visual studio project and then edit the data and save as a text/csv. Making a CSV file entails creating a text file and separating each data field with a comma or other simple character, such as a tab or space. Although you create the CSV file as text, importing software programs read these files as spreadsheet tables. The Import-Csv cmdlet creates table-like custom objects from the items in CSV files. Each column in the CSV file becomes a property of the custom object and the items in rows become the property values. Import-Csv works on any CSV file, including files that are generated by the Export-Csv cmdlet.

Using PowerShell’s import-csv cmdlet. Import-csv can read the text file and display the data in the console as shown below. The file extension can be.csv or.txt.

Are you using VB6 or VB.NET? I will assume VB6, until I hear otherwise. You could use a grid (eg MSFlexgrid).

Excel Import From Text File

It is not editable, but there are workarounds. OR, I could describe a workaround that does not need a grid.

If there is an identifiable field (or two), you could list them in a Listbox. You load the file into an array (each element contains one row from the file). You load the identifier field into the Listbox elements. You could have a set of textboxes (one for each field in a single row) The user can navigate in the Listbox, to the desired record. The selected record(row) is displayed in the textboxes. (When the user selects an entry in the listbox, you split the contents of the companion array into the textboxes) If the textbox contents are edited, then you 'save' the amended row (You Join the textbox contents back into the companion array).

When you are finished, you save the companion arrays contents back into the text file.

Any > help is greatly approceiated! I am using VB.net (VB 2005 express) The text file will have around 10 columns (always the same) and 50 rows (always different) and is.csv. After importing the file I want to run error checks on the data.

For example all fields in column1 need to be less than 10 characters long, all fields in column 2 need to be numeric, and so on. After the error checking has been done the user should be able to amend any data if necessary and run error checking again. private operator for mac
