Feb 20 2024 5:55 AM

Hello

I havw a txt file generated from barcode machine, where in one column i get vehicle model code with 3 char and sometime 2 char and next column vinnumber with 6 char.

If it modelcode has 3 char there is no problem where i have only one space between 2 column

If modelcode 2 char there i am getting 2 spaces between columns and it takes empty records.

Is there any way i can add data if there is 2 spaces.

Attached my sample data and my code

Dim dt As New DataTable
            dt.Columns.AddRange(New DataColumn(2) {New DataColumn("Model_Code", GetType(String)), New DataColumn("Model_no", GetType(String)), New DataColumn("Model_Name", GetType(String))})
            Dim TxtData As String = File.ReadAllText(TxtPAth)
            For Each Row As String In TxtData.Split(ControlChars.CrLf.ToCharArray(), StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
                If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(Row) Then
                    dt.Rows.Add()
                    Dim i As Integer = 0
                    'For Each cell As String In Row.Split(" "c)
                    For Each cell As String In Row.Split(" "c) ', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
                        dt.Rows(dt.Rows.Count - 1)(i) = LTrim(RTrim(cell))
                        i += 1
                    Next
                End If
            Next
