Why on earth would you post an image to a site that shows it to me resized so I can't read it, instead of pasting the text in here ?

It looks like an argument exception ( hard to read ), what is the value of the text going in ? Did you set a breakpoint ?

Yeah, that makes sense

Do you mean you don't know how ? F9 gives you a breakpoint, the code will stop when it reaches it, and you can examine the state of variables, etc.

The error says "empty path name is not legal". The text property of lkj is returning an empty string. You need to supply a file to be written too. StreamWriter will not accept an empty string.

yeah you are right the textbox is empty but man i want to write "ssss" in the textbox

TwoFaced25-Mar-07 19:49

You don't need a textwriter for that. What you are attempting to do with your code is write the text "sssss" to a file on your harddrive. The file to be written to would be whatever the path is in the textbox. If you want to set the text of the textbox just use:

lkj.text = "ssss"

It took you 5 and a half hours to FINALLY describe what your trying to do with this instead of insisting that you need a TextWriter. You don't. If all you want to do is add the Text typed in by the user to the RTB, then all you have to do is:

myRTB.AppendText(myTextBox.Text & Environment.NewLine)

buddy it adding lines at the end of text
it wont add the given number to line

The code provided will add whatever text is in the textbox to the end of the RTB. If the textbox is empty it will add a blank line. Just enter your number into the textbox and click the button.

Then you're going to have to re-explain and draw some text pictures of what you want it to do because as of right now, noone understands what you want it to do. And DON'T use what you've already posted.

ok listen i want to add (eg.10+1=11) number which will in textbox to rtb lines so i coded it like this:

Dim srr As TextReader = New StringReader(rtb.Text)
Dim lineIn As String = ""
While Not (srr.Peek = -1)
lineIn = srr.ReadLine
lineIn = Val(lineIn) + Val(textbox.Text)
End while

its reading the lines but how to put back the value of "lineIn" in the place of same line where it read

now i think you will understand my problem

OK. You STILL do not need a StreamReader for this. And I STILL don't understand what you're trying to do. But, to get through the lines of an RTB is very easy using it's Lines property:

Dim newText As New StringBuilder()
For x As Integer = 0 To RichTextBox1.Lines.Length - 1
    newText.AppendLine("test " & RichTextBox1.Lines(x))
Next
RichTextBox1.Text = newText.ToString()

thanks for help but buddy why you use "-1" in this
For x As Integer = 0 To RichTextBox1.Lines.Length - 1

and i hope it will help me by the way my problem is:
i have a textbox and rtb ,rtb contains 10 or more numerical lines
and i want when i click on button then the number in textbox shoud be add in all lines of rtb

[eg:10(rtb line number)+1(textbox number)=11(10 change to 11)]

Richtextbox1.lines is an array. Richtextbox1.lines.length returns the number of lines in the richtextbox. However arrays start at zero. So to access the first element you would use Richtextbox1.lines(0). If there are 10 lines the 10th line would be Richtextbox1.lines(9). So to iterate over all the lines you go from 0 to 9 or 0 to length -1.

The code provided will do just what you want. All you need to do is make a small modification to add the value in the textbox.

Dim newText As New System.Text.StringBuilder
For x As Integer = 0 To RichTextBox1.Lines.Length - 1
    Dim val As Integer = Integer.Parse(RichTextBox1.Lines(x)) + Integer.Parse(TextBox1.Text)
    newText.AppendLine(val.ToString)
Next
RichTextBox1.Text = newText.ToString.Trim

Public Sub Kontrol()
If RdbMale.Checked = False And RdbFemale.Checked = False Then
MsgBox("Please choose Gender")
If TxtName.Text="" Then
MessageBox.Show("Please write your name")
If RdbMale.Checked = True Then
MaleFemale = "Male"
If RdbFemale.Checked = True Then
MaleFemale = "Female"

What do you mean ? Did you step through the code to see what was happening ?

Try this

if string.IsNullOrEmpty(TxtName.Text.Trim()) then

end if

This does two things

1 - it checks properly for an empty string
2 - it removes whitespace, so if the box LOOKS empty, it will be. Otherwise, a box with a space in it, is not empty.

I am trying to use a BackgroundWorker to list each file that I am scanning, but I'm not sure where to start. The MSDN examples don't help much. How should I use a BackgroundWorker for something like that?

Thanks!
