Visual Basic Coding Help: I have no idea what to do

[Moon_Dew]

I'm suffering from a case of, for lack of a better term, coder's block right. I need to work on this project but I have no idea how to start coding it, other than the immediate obvious.

The Display button's Click event procedure should read the five numbers stored in the numbers.txt file and display the numbers (one through five) in the list box, and the Update button's Click event procedure should read the same five numbers and store them in an array. It then should increase the numbers in the array by 1 and write the array contents to an empty numbers.txt file.

Here's what I've got right now:

Code:

Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
Option Infer Off

Public Class MainForm

    Private Sub exitButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles exitButton.Click
        Me.Close()
    End Sub

    Private Sub displayButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles displayButton.Click

    End Sub

    Private Sub updateButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles updateButton.Click

    End Sub
End Class

And the list box is named numbersListBox.

...yes, captain obvious, it's Visual Basic, or VB.NET if your prefer that name. Now, how about an actual answer?

[no]

And that was your first mistake.

What do you mean? This is homework help and answers, isn't it? So shouldn't that mean I can get homework help and answers? How is posting here a mistake?

Here's the updated code.

Code:

Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
Option Infer Off

Public Class MainForm

    Dim loadedfile As String = "d:\test.txt"
    Dim tempstr1 As String = IO.File.ReadAllText(loadedFile)

    Private Sub MainForm_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    End Sub

    Private Sub Display_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Display.Click

        numbersListBox.Items.Add(tempstr1)


    End Sub

    Private Sub update_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Update.Click
        Dim x As Integer = tempstr1.Length - 1
        Dim myarray(x) As String
        Dim i As Integer = 0
        For Each mychr As Char In tempstr1
            myarray(i) = mychr
            i += 1
            ListBox2.Items.Add(i + 1)

        Next

    End Sub
End Class

Like the others I can't help because you're using VB. I'mma C++/Python man. :(

Maybe you should just make a GUI interface in real time.
