How to add all items in Combobox/ListBox to a table

[Ezekiel Bucknor]

Hello fellow group members, I am stuck in my project trying to save all the data entered. I am creating a voting app for my school in which when I enter students index number I want it to save so that in case of sudden shutdown of laptop we can boot it up and retrieve the data to continue the process.
I have tried every thing u helped me out here but it seems like am not good at scripting.
I would be glad if you help me with any method to save my data, Textfile, Application.SaveValue, or registry.

It's a bit hard as to what data you are entering as you are not giving any code or example apz of what you are trying to achieve.
As you have been told before there are many methods - ini file , txt file or sqlite database

before i have also this project in our school to get student name and mobile number, course and fb account, and i used text file to store my data and retrieved it..
here it is..

on Save button..

course = Input.GetText("course");
name = Input.GetText("name");
number = Input.GetText("number");
fb = Input.GetText("fb");

if course == "" or name == "" or number == "" then

result = Dialog.Message("Notice", "PLEASE COMPELETE STUDENT DATA", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);

else

result = Dialog.Message("Please Confirm", "Name: "..name.."\r\nNumber: "..number.."\r\nCourse: "..course.."\r\nFB/email: "..fb, MB_YESNO, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);

if result == IDYES then


course = Input.GetText("course");
name = Input.GetText("name");
number = Input.GetText("number");
fb = Input.GetText("fb");

data = Crypto.BlowfishEncryptString(number.." - "..name..""..course.." "..fb, "F3wYGyYsBwU=U84RWp3dcnSAwEFaOKsBpg==", 0);
---name = Crypto.BlowfishEncryptString(name, "F3wYGyYsBwU=U84RWp3dcnSAwEFaOKsBpg==", 0);
---number = Crypto.BlowfishEncryptString(number, "F3wYGyYsBwU=U84RWp3dcnSAwEFaOKsBpg==", 0);


TextFile.WriteFromString("C:\\Student Info.txt", data.."\r\n", true);

Input.SetText("course", "");
Input.SetText("name", "");
Input.SetText("number", "");
Input.SetText("fb", "");

RadioButton.SetChecked("ACT", false);
RadioButton.SetChecked("BSIT", false);
RadioButton.SetChecked("HRM", false);

Input.SetEnabled("name", false);
Input.SetEnabled("number", false);
Input.SetEnabled("fb", false);

xButton.SetEnabled("reset", false);


else

end

end



on retreiving data.

---opens browse and select box
sBackup = Dialog.FolderBrowse("Please select a folder:", _DesktopFolder);
-- If CANCEL was not chosen, then let's get the folder path
if (sBackup ~= "CANCEL") then

tFileContents = TextFile.ReadToTable("C:\\Student Info.txt");


-- Initialize sInputContents to ""
sParagraphContents = "";
-- Concat table and add line numbers
for LineNumber, LineContents in pairs (tFileContents) do
if LineContents ~= "\r\n" then

LineContents = Crypto.BlowfishDecryptString(LineContents, "F3wYGyYsBwU=U84RWp3dcnSAwEFaOKsBpg==");

sParagraphContents = sParagraphContents.."" .. LineContents .. "\r\n";
else
sParagraphContents = sParagraphContents .."" .. "\r\n";
end
end

TextFile.WriteFromString(sBackup.."\\Student Info.txt", sParagraphContents, false);


Dialog.Message("Import Data", "Import of data completed succesfully!", MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);
end





You can play along with that.. i admit all the script is not mine some are all in here also got the ideas....
