Filter a textfile, results in a listview (VB6)

  • 13 years ago

    Hi,

    I have a project that is driving me crazy! There is something wrong but I can’t find it!!!
    Are there anyone who can help me and have a small look what it can be that is not done the right way?

    I have a ListBox where I add a combination (for example SPN190). Then I click on a searchbutton ‘cmdFind’, I open a text file and search it for the specified SPN-combination. Then I want to have the whole row from the text file printed in a ListView ‘lvResults’.
    The problem is that nothing comes up in the ‘lvResults’ and I do not know where the problem is, so please….HELP!

     
    [CODE]Private Sub cmdFind_Click()
        On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
        If lstCombo.ListCount = 0 Then
            MsgBox "Please enter some combinations to search for", vbExclamation
            Exit Sub
        End If


        With objCD
            .CancelError = True
            .DialogTitle = "Open File"
            .Filter = "Text Files (*.txt)|*.txt"
            .ShowOpen



            InitCombos
           
            If Len(.Filename) > 0 Then
                FindCombo .Filename
            End If



        End With
        Exit Sub
    ErrorHandler:
    End Sub
    '-------------------------------------------------------

        Dim intLoop As Long
        ReDim strCombos(0 To lstCombo.ListCount - 1) As String
        For intLoop = 0 To lstCombo.ListCount - 1
            strCombos(intLoop) = lstCombo.List(intLoop)
        Next intLoop

    End Sub
    '--------------------------------------------------------------
    'Checks if a combination exists in the array.
    Private Function ComboInList(Combination As String) As Boolean
        Dim lonLoop As Long, lonUB As Long

        lonUB = SafeUBString(strCombos())
        For lonLoop = 0 To lonUB
            If LCase$(strCombos(lonLoop)) = strToComp Then
                ComboInList = True
                Exit For
            End If
