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
Can someone please let me know what's wrong. Thanks in advance.
