Gopi Asai

I would like to store the image path in notepad by refer the input of another notepad. Input look like below.

IM,abc001,D,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,D,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,D,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc003.tif;2
IM,abc001,D,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,D,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,D,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc003.tif;2

Image path in system

D:\ABC\Images\00\00\

abc001
abc002
abc003

D:\ABC\Images\00\01\

abc001
abc002
abc003

Input image names may be in same (duplicate) but it's available in different folder. So avoid to open the incorrect image i want to get the all image path and save in notepad along with image name like below

IM,abc001,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\00\;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\00\;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\00\;abc003.tif;2
IM,abc001,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\01\;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\01\;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,D,0;ABC;D:\ABC\Images\00\01\;abc003.tif;2

I'm still not 100% clear but, if you're saying that the drive and top level directory (or directories) will always be the same for a specific file but these will be given rather than deduced from the file itself, then this should work:

using System;
using System.IO;

class Test
{
static void Main()
{
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines("gopi_asai.txt");
string prefix = @"D:\ABC";

for(int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++)
{
string[] items = lines[i].Split(';');
items[2] = String.Format(@"{0}\{1}", prefix, items[2]);
lines[i] = String.Join(";", items);
}
File.WriteAllLines("gopi_asai2.txt", lines);
}
}

Hi Vulpes,

Thanks for the help. Actually you were consider the "D" as drive of image path. But it's not a path, this is client input. Most of the time it will be different. Like below. We do not consider this.

IM,abc001,D,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,C,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,,0;ABC;images\00\00;abc003.tif;2
IM,abc001,,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc001.tif;2
IM,abc002,,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc002.tif;2
IM,abc003,D,0;ABC;images\00\01;abc003.tif;2

My exact vision is, we need to open the exact images in between the duplicate images which is available in different folder. So i decided to append the image path into client provided input file. The whole images are available in the below path. for example.,

L:\Project\ABC\images\

I want to identify the each images along with the sub folders of \00\00\ from client input to image path and get the whole image path.

Quick Understanding:

Just read the image name with sub folder in client input file and search it in image path which i generated in another notepad. After the path will be replace into input file.

or

If you could not understand the above means, I need to open the images in picturebox using the client input file using the above image path.

Could you please me here...

Try the following:

{

{
string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines("gopi_asai.txt");
for(int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++)
{
string[] items = lines[i].Split(';');
string[] items2 = items[0].Split(',');
items[2] = String.Format(@"{0}\{1}\{2}", items2[2], items[1], items[2]);
lines[i] = String.Join(";", items);
}
File.WriteAllLines("gopi_asai2.txt", lines);
}
