For example, since this reads the entire file into memory, a huge file could cause problems. You can get around this by reading the file in smaller chunks, but that coimplicates things a bit because for example the search string could start in one chunk and finish in the next.
Apr 25 '07 reply tweety 11 Thankyou for the reply! Is that what you are experiencing? And, is this an issue for you? Are you trying to display the pertinent parts of your log file on the screen? If so, into what control textbox, listbox, richtextbox? EDIT: If you set your textbox multiline property to TRUE, then you will see your file properly displayed in that textbox assuming it's height is tall enoughyou can use your mouse to scroll up and down in that textbox to see it all. It is a TextBox, not ListBox.
The TextBox is called 'Text1'. I shall try and explain further what I am experiencing with full code: First of all, back to the basics. All line feeds are there etc. It just looks like text to me. See attached for this original file log. The TextBox shows the contents of the file. I also notice that the original file is 8kb and the newly saved text file is now only 4kb! One System to rule them all, One Code to find them, One IDE to bring them all, and to the Framework bind them, in the Land of Redmond, where the Windows lie People call me crazy because i'm jumping out of perfectly fine airplanes.
EOF only works with files opened for sequential Input access. But when I used Seek or Loc to open it, I see an umlatted y in the textbox. Sorry I could not help Thanks for taking a look. Technically this thread has been answered, sorry for going off topic.
Thank you everyone for your time. I appreciate it. EDIT: Yes, this works! A bit of a workaround but it has at least allowed me to progress whilst I get in touch with Passmark about their log files.
