Figured out but thanks anyway guys.

I've done some reading - someone has suggested I feed the reader into a TextBox first (a hidden textbox) and then into the Comobobox, but this doesn't seem necessary. Is there a way I can simply knock off the last character displayed of every item in the Combobox, when it lists them in the drop...

'Read Textfile into Combobox Dim FILE_NAME As String = "C:\Data\shippers.txt" Dim TextLine As String If System.IO.File.Exists(FILE_NAME) = True Then Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(FILE_NAME) Do While objReader.Peek() <> -1...

I am populating a Combox by reading lines into it from a text file. After every item in the Combobox - there are 2 small squares, which I would guess would be a Carriage Return. Is there anyway I can filter the squares off, so the user does not see them in the drop down?

Wow! That's impressive!

I have learned so much from these examples in the last few months. You really filled in some blanks for me. Thanks again.

So far so good - but I can only get the dialog box to ask Yes, No, Cancel, etc. using MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel. Is there anyway I can pass string variables, so I'm asking other questions? ie: What is your favorite color? (buttons appear) Blue, Yellow, Red

Thanks guys - I will check this out in detail.

Thanks John. I've read the example, but I'm not getting it.

Hey Guys and Girls, Trying to imitate a Messagebox - in that, a sub will not continue until the user "deals with" the pop up. For example, in a sub, I want a Form to pop up, and ask a user a question, and give them 3 options. I want to make it so the user must click an option, and then the...

Thanks again 'Flipped'. You've really gone above and beyond. I think - instead of copying the object "in focus" into a temporary object, looks like I need to learn to add all objects I may be working with into a collection, and then learn to use loops to work with the objects based on...

I like the SELECT CASE method, as it's nice and easy to read. Thanks for your input.

hmm... I think I can make that work. Thanks!

Is there any way to use a Select statement to Test multiple variables? ie: Dim x as integer = 1 Dim x as integer = 2 Dim z as integer = 3 Select Case x, y, z case is 1, 2, 3 End Select

Basically, if we look at this code: For Each thisMonster As Monster In monsters 'renamed for clarification If thisMonster.name = "zombie" Then thisMonster.doDamage() Else Console.WriteLine("The unknown monster is named: {0}", thisMonster.name) End If This works...

Is there anyway I can 'alias' an object's name as a string? For example.... If a monster was called 'wolf'. Dim targetmonster as string targetmonster = "wolf" 'Then try to talk to the object with a string variable as it's name targetmonster.doSomething

Thanks again!

Again, thanks for your help, I've learned so much about classes in the last few posts. If we load the instances in that manner, I take it I will not be able to program each one later on using the monster.doSomething() method, as ALL of my monsters will be an instance called "monster". Will...

That answered it! Thanks!!!

I'm trying to understand this, but still having some difficulty. If 'wolfmonster' is loaded from a text file that contains hundreds of other monsters, while the Streamreader is looping, how do I 'name' the 'wolfmonster' object. For example if my text file is a simple flat file like this...
