[vb.net]Simple Offline Databasing

Credits: DeToX(Me)

Okay so anyone that knows me in the past, kno i like to use offline databasing for programs... e.g. in my antivirus program, i offline databased the Virus Sigs so to update you only need to download a new text file, also you may have seen my offline database for the virus vault

Today im going to show you a simple way to make a online database, using only a few lines of code and a text document....

so to start create a new .txt file and name is Accounts.txt, put it in the folder of you project called Debug

Now Add This Text To The File

Code:

NEW|FakeEmail69@fagswag.Com|ILIKEPUSS|
NEW|DETOXROCKSYOU@mymom.Com|DETOXROXS|
NEW|TEST@test.COM|TEST123|

you will need to:

Code:

Imports System.IO 'Give us acces to File.ReadAllText("")

okay anyways now onto the coding part.... first we are going to load it.... soo.....

Code:

Sub LoadArrayOfInfo()
Dim InfoFile as string = File.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath & "\Accounts.txt") 'All the txt in our account.txt can now be called by InfoFile
End Sub

Now We have to split our accounts...

Code:

Sub LoadArrayOfInfo()
Dim InfoFile as string = File.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath & "\Accounts.txt") 'All the txt in our account.txt can now be called by InfoFile
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim InfoArray() as String = InfoFile.Split("NEW|") 'Splits The Strings By NEW|
End Sub

Now that the accounts are split they show up as seperated strings like this

Account@Email.com|Password|

Now we gota organise the data we split up

Code:

Sub LoadArrayOfInfo()
Dim InfoFile as string = File.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath & "\Accounts.txt") 'All the txt in our account.txt can now be called by InfoFile
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim InfoArray() as String = InfoFile.Split("NEW|") 'Splits The Strings By NEW|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Each Inf as String in InfoArray
Dim Account as String = Inf.Split("|")

Next
End Sub

Now we added a loop to go through and split the strings we splitted before into usernames and passwords
so now we have

Account <-- One String
Password <-- One String

So now to access the Account and Password Do This...

Code:

Sub LoadArrayOfInfo()
Dim InfoFile as string = File.ReadAllText(Application.StartupPath & "\Accounts.txt") 'All the txt in our account.txt can now be called by InfoFile
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim InfoArray() as String = InfoFile.Split("NEW|") 'Splits The Strings By NEW|
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Each Inf as String in InfoArray
Dim Account as String = Inf.Split("|")
'------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim AccountName as String = Account(0)
Dim AccountPassword As String = Account(1)
Next
End Sub
