Newb Question: Displaying comma delimted text in different text bo

JR
I have tried searching boards but have not been able to find an answer.

What is the best way to display text from a log.txt file and then display it
in three seperate text boxes?

I have a log file that is continually going to have 3 temperatures appended
to it. I need to read that temperature in from the log file and display it to
the user.

The temperatures are seperated by commas. I was reading and is Streamreader
what I should be using and is text boxes the best way to display the three
different temperatures.

Any help would be appreciated.

Nothing wrong with using streamreader. As for the text boxes being the
best, it depends on what else you are trying to do with the values. Can the
user change the value? If not, consider labels, less overhead. Do you want
to show more than one at a time, try a datagrid or listview.

John,

The best way is in my opinion not using a sequential log file.
In this case I would use database.

Not really sure what the problem is, perhaps I am using split wrong. Page should get form fields form previous page and some of them will go into a tabel called Personal. Other items, to resolve a many-to-many relationship, will go into a table called PersonalPeople, which consists of 2 fields: the PK's from the People table and the Perosnal table. I decided to have the 30 or so checkboxes on the first page all have the same name, as...

I wrote an asp program that displays some information line by line such as name, address, town, state, zip and it prints about 200 lines to their browsers when the asp file is called. It is comma delimted so they can import into their database using access for example. 1. when they do file-save as to a txt file, it does not import right for them. It seems the lines blend into each other.

My access table when exported to a comma delimited field gets all messed up because some of the fields have the double quote character - ". Used for measurements and other things. I guess I will have to strip them out. How can I replace the " for a blank space? I am having trouble doing it with the replace command in a sql statement. sqlstatement = "update table set table. = replace(table.," & """""""" & "," + """""" + ")"

I need to read in a comma separated file, and for this I was going to use fgets. I was reading about it at http://www.cplusplus.com/ref/ and I noticed that the document said: "Reads characters from stream and stores them in string until (num -1) characters have been read or a newline or EOF character is reached, whichever comes first." My question is that if it stops at a new line character (LF?) then how does one read a file with...

Trying to run a simple query on my dataset the SQL statement looks like this: select * from person where id in (@p) When using more than one id in the "in statement", I get nothing! Using Visual Studio interface, there is the Execute Query button in Query Builder. Here I can set @p = 1, and the test execute returns the row where id = 1.. and I can do the same for @p = 2.

Hello, I am displaying data retrieved from a database as a httpresponse in a webform. I noticed that some characters such as the comma (,), display as special characters in the web browser (Internet Explorer). It displays something like $^^% instead of a comma.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
