How to add to the end of existing text file.Text File Operations VB.NET

Do you mean when you create the StreamWriter you want the Append option?  If so here's an example of how to set this up.

 Dim ioFile As New StreamWriter("MyFile.Txt",True)

 The "True" parameter after the name of the text file allows you to add to the end of the file rather than overwriting the info that is already in it.

Extracting Formatted .txt file [fixed]Text File Operations VB.NET

The following is a cleaned up version of the above, it adds a <vbcr> to each line to preserve formatting, (useful for when reading .Htm and .Asp files).  It also outputs results to a RichTextBox.  The file name is pulled from a OpenFileDialog box and passed to a TextBox which in turn gets parsed by SteamReader.

Extracting data from text file into seperate CSV fileText File Operations VB.NET

I have a file similar to the below

blah blah blah label="ABC" label.Value="123" label.Value="456" label.Value="789" label="DEF" label="HIJ" label.Value="111" label.Value="222" blah blah blah. (No CrLf, just  along string)

What I want to do is to be able to extract the values of label and label.Value into a excel sheet. So ideally the file above would end up in excel like...                          

label ABC

label.Value 123

label.Value 456

label.Value 789

label DEF

label HIJ

label.Value 111

label.Value 222

where label and label.Value are in column A and the value in qutoes is in column B (minus the actual quotes)

Does anyone have any examples of VBA code that I can use to do this?
