Deleting a row of data from data/text file

63 New Member
How can I delete a row of data from a data/text file in vb6 ? I am using an MSFlexGrid, so the user can select which row is to be deleted.

Thanks in advance,

I have a repair and backup database routine which runs when a user closes down my application. It works fine in my development machine, but breaks on a client's at the following line: If Dir(strLDB) <> "" Then Kill (strLDB) where strLDB is the path to the ldb file. The client advises that the ldb doesn't lurk after the program closes. Any ideas?

hello everybody, i'm having some problems searching a text file and then deleting the line. since i used fileopen(), i can use the eof() function to loop through the file, searching for the specified line. the problem is, once found, i can't delete it because the filemode is in openmode.input. is there a way to chance the openmode on the run?(if so, what is it?) and maybe there is a simpler way to search a text file and deleting the...

Hi there, I'm using the code below to try to delete a name from a list of names in a file. Unfortunately it doesn't quite do what I want it to. Instead of looking for the name in the textbox and deleting that it is just deleting the first line of data in the file.

One more for today.... As I add more and more lines to my RichTextBox the array that holds its strings gets bigger and bigger and the vertical scroll bar gets smaller and smaller until the string array finally runs out of memory. I'd like to set some line limit and once that limit is reached, start removing the first line each time a new line is appended onto the end. I think this is probably more of an array manipulation question than...

I now would like to add code under a delete button to use the table(grid) to delete rows from the file. How can I do that. I have some code for deleting a row from the table, but it's only deleting the row from the table, and not the entry itself. Please help! Is there a relatively easy way to do this ?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
