I'm trying to switch "M" to "Mr." and "F" to "Ms." when the last name is selected in the listbox. When I clicked on the first name it worked, but when I clicked on anyother name, I got this error message:
--Additional information: Index was outside the bounds of the array.--
The information in the text file is like this:
Ball,Krystal,F,1981
Banks,Robin,F,1988
Burgher,Hamilton,M,1980
Early,Brighton,M,1989
Hedd,MT,M,1960
Hogg,Ima,F,1953
Knapp,Anita,F,1970
Overnout,Roger,M,1968
Psito,Arnie,M,1962
Teak,Anne,F,1939
And my code is as follows:
Private Sub btnEnter_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnEnter.Click
Dim names As IO.StreamReader = IO.File.OpenText("Info.txt")
Dim lName As String = lstNames.Text
Dim line As String
Dim gender As String
Dim foundFlag As Boolean = False
Do Until foundFlag Or names.EndOfStream
line = names.ReadLine
If line.Split(","c)(2) = "M" Then
gender = "Mr. "
ElseIf line.Split(","c)(2) = "F" Then
gender = "Ms. "
End If
If line.Split(","c)(0) = lName Then
txtOutput.Text = gender & line.Split(","c)(1) & " " & line.Split(","c)(0) & " is " & 2012 - line.Split(","c)(3)
foundFlag = True
End If
Loop
End Sub
I'm trying to display e.g"Ms. Krystal Ball is 31" etc. well the last name is selected in the listbox. Can someone please let me know what's wrong. Thanks in advance.
