How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview

Hi everyone
How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview
thx
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as I know, a text file has no columns. Please be more specific. Do you mean something like the 5th word on line 4, where words are separated by a space, and lines are separated by a newline character? You could the Read from Spreadsheet String function and set the delimiter to a space. This will produce a 2D array of strings. Then use index array and give the line number and column number.

Apostroph and euro sign not read corectly from txt file

apostroph and euro sign not read corectly from txt file.
my code is like this:
FileInputStream fis= new FileInputStream(x+".html");
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fis,"UTF-8"));
String Line="";
while ((Line = br.readLine()) != null) result+=Line;
br.close();
fis.close();
I use UTF-8 because the file contains also French characters.
What's the problem?

The top portion can search for the location of a string, while the bottom portion is to locate the position of a character. Both can search for a character.
The position of the character within the file is displayed in the indicator(s).

How to remove Unicode from XML file

I get following error when unmarshal xml:
[java] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x15) was found in the element content of the document.
Anyone know how to remove Unicode from xml file? Can I remove the unicode by rebuild the file?
Thanks

These sort of error usually occur when you're using a different character encoding to read the file than the one you wrote it with. Perhaps if you were to post the problem section of the file and/or the code that created it in the first place.

How to read data from txt file respectively

Hi,
I am triying to form an equation between two known points. I want to do this with the attached VI, the most critical point is that I will read the x1, y1, x2 and y2 coordinates from the same .txt file. They will be written in a .txt file and I will send them to the appropriate channel (x1, y1, x2 and y2) respectively. How can I get data in a rule from a .txt file?
Could anyone please help me with this issue,
Best regards.

Dear RavensFan,
Thank you very much for your helps, I am bit new to labview so I usually can not find the appropriate functions easily. And a new problem has rised in my application. I should write the A, B and C numbers in the respective series to the file 2.txt. I am able to write them in a straight forward case but I want to write the next triples (A B C) in the next row. Like this;
A1 B1 C1
A2 B2 C2
A3 B3 C3
So how can I put new line constant and space constant to my VI?
Waiting for your valuable helps,
Best regards,

Hello i need a help about script to export translatable text strings from ai files and import them back

Hello i need a help about script to export translatable text strings from ai files and import them back after editing, thanks in advance

Lanny -
Thank you for taking the time to help with this problem. Can I just say however that as someone who has posted a first comment here and quite clearly never used a forum like this before, your comment unfortunately comes across as very excluding. It makes me feel there are a set of unwritten rules that I should know, and that I don't know them shows that the forum is not for me. In short, it's exactly the kind of response that stops people like me using forums like this.
I'm sure it's not intended to be received like this and I am sure that the way you have responded is quite normal in the rules of a forum like this. However, it is not normal for those of us who aren't familiar with forums and who only encounter them when they have a genuine problem. This is why I hope it is helpful to respond in full.
The reason I posted here is as follows. I was directed here by the apple support website. The original comment seemed to be the only one I could find which referred to my issue. As there is no obvious guidance on how to post on a forum like this it seemed perfectly reasonable to try and join in a conversation which might solve more than one problem at once.
Bee's reply however is both helpful and warm. This could in fact be a template for how new members should be welcomed and inducted into the rules of the forum in a friendly and inclusive way. Thank you very much indeed Bee!

Need to get a particular string from a file!!

Hi-
    In a linux server,i need to pull some data from the logfiles from the dir "
/dev/bld/autosys/autosys-be/jobs/",under this dir we have so many applications like- ada-2013.06.0,bda-2013.06.0,cda-2013.06.0 etc...
      Which are also directories(
ada-2013.06.0,bda-2013.06.0,cda-2013.06.0) under this each dir ,we can find a logfile.
      from the logfile we need to pull some data to generate a report.
       Here in the logfile we could find a request name "xyz
-sib_ada-2013.06.0" after the string "ci-" in every part of logfile,so i would like to pull this information from the logfle after that i would like to issues the command "p4 branch xyz-sib_ada-2013.06.0" to get source and target details.
if you issue the above command it looks like...
Branch:xyz-sib_ada-2013.06.0

Hi,

if yes you can do something like this
cd /dev/bld/autosys/autosys-be/jobs/
find . -type f -exec grep "<string you want to serch>" {} \; -print
It will list the file having some set of string you are serching..

Auto delete everything but specified folder contents from txt file

Hey Guys,
I am brand new to using Powershell (like 48 hours into using it for work) and I've run into a bit of an issue. I've only taken a programming concept classes so some of the stuff makes sense to me but a lot of it is new. Basically I've made a
script that automatically deletes any files over X amount of days. My next step is to have an exceptions text that will have a list of folders that should not have its contents deleted. This is what I have so far.
$Date= Get-Date
$Days = "7"
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = $Now.AddDays(-$Days)
#----- getting DO NOT DELETE listing from TXT ----#
$Exceptions = Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt"
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse -Exclude "c:\exclude.txt" | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le "$LastWrite"}
foreach ($File in $Files)
if ($File -ne $NULL)
Remove-Item $File.FullName -Exclude $Exceptions | out-null
I've seen a lot of threads that show how to auto delete contents or how to exclude specific file types but I haven't seen an answer to my particular problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Rabbot,
The script below may be also helpful for you, and uses the -whatif parameter in Remove-Item cmdlet, which doesn’t actually remove anything but simply tells you what would happen if you did call Remove-Item.
$Exceptions = @()
Get-Content "c:\exclude.txt" | foreach{
$Exceptions += $_} #store the exception file to array
$Folder = "C:\publicftp\users"
$LastWrite = (get-date).adddays(-7) #over 7 days.
$Files = Get-Childitem $Folder -Recurse | Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le $LastWrite} #filter files which over 7 days.
Foreach ($file in $files){
if ($Exceptions -notcontains $file.fullname){ #if the file is not listed in the exception array.
Remove-Item $File.FullName -whatif} #use -whatif to test
I hope this helps.

Text layers from .txt file for buisness cards

I have a template for a business card that I created for a company. So imagine I have a background layer which is the card itself, and above that a layer for each string of text on the card (name, title, phone, email). Up until now, I would manually enter all the information using the Type tool to edit each text layer. However, it has become very tedious and I know there has to be a much easier way to do this. I'm looking for a way to automate this process. So far I have created an Excel database of all the employees, and I export each employees information to a .txt file that looks like this:
John Doe
Job Title
123-456-7890
123-456-7890
[email protected]
Each line in the .txt file corresponds to a text layer on the .psd. I've tried following a tutorial from the web (kirupa.com - Photoshop Scripting) but he is creating them in batches which is not what I need to do. And quite frankly, it's a bit over my head. I know scripting must be the way, but unfortunately I don't know much about JaveScript or any other language for that matter.
I know it's a lot to ask for, but if anyone could show me how to write a simple script for this or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. And I mean MUCH!

Hey man, that was spot on! This does exactly what I was looking for, now scripting required. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.

Read from txt file and analyse data

hi,
i am having a problem for reading data from a text file and checking whether it is a integer or not.
basically if i have a txt file with the following content:
12 45 345 500 45.67684 33
my output should be:
12 45 345 500 invalid 33
that means if there is a integer number in the file, the integer number will be printed on the screen BUT if there is anything else like a string or a double number, then "invalid" will be printed.
how can i check what kind of datatype it is??
i have the following code to start with:
try
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(FileName));
            String l = in.readLine();
            in.close();
        catch(IOException e)
            System.out.println("IO error");
            System.exit(0);
        }

ok i have tried the following code:
        int index = 0;
        String[] arr = null;
        int nb = 0;
        try
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(nameFile));
            String line = in.readLine();
            arr = line.split(" ");
            for(int i=0; i<arr.length; i++)
                index = i;
                nb = Integer.parseInt(arr);
System.out.print(nb+" ");
in.close();
catch(IOException e)
System.out.println("IO error");
System.exit(0);
catch(NumberFormatException e)
System.out.print("invalid ");
for(int j=index+1; j<arr.length; j++)
nb = Integer.parseInt(arr[j]);
System.out.print(nb+" ");
which works perfectly fine for the following scenario:
txt-file:
12 45 345 500 45.67684 33
output:
12 45 345 500 invalid 33
but what, if I have the following data in my txt file:
12 45 345 500 45.67684 33 23.234 21
then the output should be:
12 45 345 500 invalid 33 invalid 21
how can i solve this???

Pulling output data from .txt file

Hello, I am trying to have a program that allows a user to input shopping items into the program andhave that input go to a .txt file called shoppinglist, then after the user is finished, he/she can type no to stop entering items to the list and the program will then pull all the info entered to the .txt file and output it to the screen, creating a shooping list for the user. My problem is that I am not quite sure how to output the data from the .txt file to the screen. Here is my code.
import java.io.*; // uses the java io library for the
import java.util.*; // BufferedReader class
public class week5
public static void main(String [] args)
PrintWriter inputItems = null;
try
inputItems = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream("shoppinglist.txt"));
BufferedReader outputItems = null;
String line = null;
outputItems = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("shoppinglist.txt"));
line = outputItems.readLine();
outputItems.close();
catch(FileNotFoundException e)
System.out.println("File file.txt not found");
System.out.println("or could not be opened.");
catch(IOException e)
System.out.println("Error reading from file file.txt.");
System.out.println("This program will create a shopping list:");
String keepGoing = "yes";
String item = null;
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
for (int count = 1; count < 999 && keepGoing.equalsIgnoreCase("yes");count++)
//ask for input, write it to a file
System.out.print("Please enter item # " + count + ": ");
System.out.print("");
item = keyboard.nextLine();
inputItems.println(count + " " + item);
//ask if you want to keep going
System.out.print("Do you wish to enter more items (yes/no): ");
System.out.print("");
keepGoing = keyboard.nextLine();
System.out.println("Your shopping list contains: " + item);
System.out.print("");
inputItems.close();
} All the above does is output the last item entered by the user, not the whole shopping list. Any help is greatly appreciated.

He hasn't even read the user input at that point.
OP, you need to sit down and think about the exact order you want to do things in, and rewrite your code in a logical straightforward manner. It looks like you just threw some code in hoping it would work, instead of coding deliberately. I'm not insulting you or anything, I know you're new to Java. I'm just trying to give you some advice. Look at your code, and ask yourself why the following line of code appears before you've even written anything to your file:
line = outputItems.readLine();
