Saving data from a listbox to a txt file!

**pds2ect** · 09-16-2007, 12:51 PM

I am writing an application that requires the user to fill in several fields on diferent forms. The data is stored in a listbox on the final form. I need to be able to save the data into a text file on my HD but am struggling to come up with the right code to do it. Any examples of the code needed would be a great help. I am using Visual Studio 2005.
Thanks.

I don't know how to do it with VS2005, but I can with VB6. Here is some code in VB6 that might help you out.

Code:

Open "c:\temp.txt" For Output As #1

    For i = 0 To List1.ListCount - 1
        Print #1, List1.Index(i)
    Next i

Close #1

Well try this code:
Visual Basic Simple FTP Upload

as you can see it is quite a piece of code and I don't have time to code it my self, so I found this for you. Hope it helps. (You need an OCX, can be downloaded from there)
