Visual Basic :: How To Display The Content Of Text File In The Data Report?

Text Field Does Not Display For Crystal Report After Saving It To A File
In my VB 6 code I do the following to a text field on my report.

VB Code:
CigUnitRpt.Text2.SetText "From " & Trim(Main.DTPicker1.Value) & " to " & Trim(Main.DTPicker2.Value)

After the report is created in vb, I save the report to a file like this.

VB Code:
Report.SaveAs "C:CigUnits.rpt", cr80FileFormat

When I open the file I created, this text field shows nothing in it even though I know there is data placed in the field.

Anyone know why this is happening and how to get around this problem?

Thanks

Display Differences In File Content
Has anyone ever written or seen VB source code for showing contents of 2 files side by side and highlighting their differences like WinDiff?

Specifically, the tasks I'm interested in are:

1) highlighting what is different in each file when they are displayed side by side - somehow color coding differences and inserting blank line in file two display if file one contains a line that file two does not have

2) getting the two displays to scroll together

My current code is:

VB Code:
(globalvar.bas)Option Explicit Public pn1 As New partnamelist (frm_field)Private Sub fieldupload() With pn1 'I made a class named partnamelist having these 4 properties: part, description, quantity, and version .part = txt_part.text .description = txt_desc.Text .quantity = txt_qty.Text .version = txt_version.Text End WithEnd Sub Private Sub cmd_apply_Click()dim filename as string If Len(txt_part.text) = 0 And _ Len(txt_desc.Text) = 0 And _ Len(txt_qty.Text) = 0 And _ Len(txt_version.Text) = 0 Then MsgBox "please enter the necessary values." txt_part.setfocus Else fieldupload filename = txt_filename.text 'Specified filename of the user MsgBox ("Creating profile...

Display Content Of Folder In Combo Box And Call The Content.
Hi Ya'll, I new in the VB community and just now learning how to usecombo boxes and list boxes. At work we have a reporting software calledReport Runner and is being replaced by Crystal Report. RR can exportreports into HTML file format and I wrote a simple page that the usersuse to view and print thier report. Now with Crystal Reports, exportingto html is no longer a feature but pdf file format is a new option andit is a much smaller file format after comparing the reports. I wouldlike to design a VB application that will have combo boxes per reporttype.

I would like to show the *.pdf files from a folder in a shared networkdrive in the combo box and call the *.pdf file when chosen or even use abutton to call the file in its own native window, in this case acrobatwindow.

One big problem, I do not know how to populate the combo box with thefilder information nor do I know how to call a file and make it show ina different window.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated,

Thank,

Print Content Of Text Boxes Within A Report (CR 8.5)
Hallo together,
How is it possible, to print the content of different text boxes to a report I created with the Report generator using an MS-Acces Database table with the defined field objects (the first step I did)
In the second step, I created a form using VB 6 and placed the same number of text boxes like the field objekts in the database table. I used the Crystal Report Controll and VB's Data Control to connect the text boxes with the field objects of the database.
But in reality i don't need any database or the Data Controll to walk through the Database because I just want to print the current recordset (content of the text boxes i gave in) to my generated report without storing them to the database and preview it in the preview window. Further there should appear only one recordset in the Report.

Thanks for any help

Data Extract From Text File Report
Hi All,

I have a very interesting task. I have a report that gets sent to us every month from the main office in text fromat and it looks something like the attached file and what I need to do is to create something to extract the data and place it in a table which would have the subscriber number, house number, serial or serials (one next to the other) and address.

I have searched everywhere for a data extract application or help but I haven't had any luck. I am hoping that you may have the solution to my very pressing problem.

Thanks a million for any help you might provide.

Displaying Text File Content In A Datagrid Then Open That Text File...
I have a form named frmTest and contains a datagrid called dgData and two buttons. One is button 'Read text file' and the other one is 'open text file'. I also have a class module named CReadFile. and a textfile named test.txt

The code for button Read text file is:

Code:
Private Sub cmdReadTXT_Click()
Dim obj As CReadFile
Set obj = New CReadFile

Set dgData.DataSource = obj.Read_Text_File
Set obj = Nothing
End Sub
and the code for the open text file button is:

Code:
Open "test.txt" For Input As 1
MsgBox "file opened."
Close
The code inside the class module is:

Code:
Option Explicit

Public Function Read_Text_File() As ADODB.Recordset
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection
Set conn = New ADODB.Connection
conn.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};" & _
"DBQ=" & App.Path & ";", "", ""

rs.Open "select * from [test#txt]", conn, adOpenStatic, _
adLockReadOnly, adCmdText
Set Read_Text_File = rs
Set rs = Nothing
Set conn = Nothing
End Function
_____________

This is what happens, if you click the button 'Read text file', the contents of the text file will be displayed in the data grid. After clicking the button 'Read text file', I now want to click the button 'Open text file' to open the text file, but an error appears saying: Run time error '70': Permission Denied.
Why is that so? What should I do to solve this problem? I need to open that file again for validation after displaying the contents.

Thank you.

Data Display In Crystal Report ???
Hey I`m sorry for asking again and again, but I have not worked on Crystal Repots before this.

What is basic concept of showing data in Crystal Report. When I select tables and fields in a report. Then all available data is displayed in that report OR can it be changed as per requirements. If yes then how ?

e.g. I am having data of attendance (date / time) of Employees. And I want to display data only for specific month. In short how can I customize display in Cryst. Repo. ?

One more que. : Format of a field is Date/Time and I stored time in it. (e.g. 14:00:00) but report is showing Date value at random (e.g. 99/12/30)

Please Guide !
