    Word vector with repited words

    Hi! I am programming the following script:

    I have a Textbox where I read some MAC directions. Then I have to order the MACs and enumerate it without repetition in one table (only one time each MAC)

    For instance, if the MACs are:

    F0:E12:C3:B4:A5
    B1:F26:C1:B4:A5
    F0:E12:C3:B4:A5
    F0:E12:C3:B4:A5
    A3:E12:C3:B4:A5

    The result in the table would be:

    1 F0:E12:C3:B4:A5
    2 B1:F26:C1:B4:A5
    3 A3:E12:C3:B4:A5


    I have this code but it does not work


    Code:
    Private Sub Update_MacTable_Click()
    Grid2.Visible = True
    Grid2.Cols = 4
    Grid2.Clear
    Grid2.TextMatrix(0, 0) = "Device"
    Grid2.TextMatrix(0, 1) = "MAC"
    
    
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim j, k, n As Integer
    Dim mArray() As String
    mArray = Split(txtOut.text, "<<EOS>>") 'Primero se divide el texto en varios textos separados por el <EOS>> --> Diferentes dispositivos
    Dim sString, sString2 As String
    Dim mArray2() As String
    Dim Rowcounter As Integer
    Dim Hora As String
    Dim MAC_VECTOR() As String
    Rowcounter = 0
    Grid2.Rows = 50
    
    For i = 0 To UBound(mArray)
        sString = mArray(i)  'sString es un bloque de texto que llega hasta <<EOS>>
    mArray2 = Split(mArray(i), vbCrLf) 'Cojo este bloque de texto y lo divido en lĂ­neas
    For k = 0 To UBound(mArray2)
        sString2 = mArray2(k)
        
        If Mid(sString2, 4, 4) = "mac-" Then
            Rowcounter = Rowcounter + 1
            j = InStrRev(sString2, "=")
            Grid2.TextMatrix(Rowcounter, 0) = Rowcounter 
            
            
    For n = 0 To UBound(MAC_VECTOR)
        MAC_VECTOR(n) = Mid(sString2, j + 1) 
        If MAC_VECTOR(Rowcounter - 1) = MAC_VECTOR(n) Then
            Grid2.TextMatrix(Rowcounter, 0) = n + 1
    else
            Grid2.TextMatrix(Rowcounter, 0) = Rowcounter
        End If
    Next n
                        
            
            Grid2.TextMatrix(Rowcounter, 1) = Mid(sString2, j + 1) '
            
            
         
        End If
        
        Next k
    
    Next i
    Grid2.ColAlignment(1) = 2
    
    End Sub
    Thanks!

    Re: Word vector with repited words

    Hi,

    here a sample that opens a Textfile, then checks for Duplicates,
    then writes a new File without duplicates.

    Code:
    Private Sub Command1_Click()
     Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
      With cn
        .Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet" _
                & ".OLEDB.4.0;Data Source= c:\" _
                & ";Extended Properties=""text;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited"""
             
         End With
        Set rs = New Recordset
        rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
         
        'select Distinct Names from file
        strSQL = "Select Distinct Name from TestFile.txt"
        rs.Open strSQL, cn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
        
        Set DataGrid1.DataSource = rs
        
      Dim FNr As Integer
      Dim strPath As String
       strPath = "C:\outputtest.txt"
     
      FNr = FreeFile
      Open strPath For Output As FNr
      
      Do While rs.EOF = False
        If Not IsNull(rs!Name) Then Print #FNr, rs!Name
        'create Optputfile without Duplicate
        rs.MoveNext
        DoEvents
      Loop
      
      Close #FNr
      
      rs.Close
      Set rs = Nothing
        
        
    End Sub
    regards
    Chris

    Re: Word vector with repited words

    Here's an Old-School, Sledgehammer approach:

    Code:
    Dim sList as String : sList = "|" 
    
    Dim eLine as Variant ' String 
    For Each eLine in Split( Text1.Text, vbCrLf ) 
       ' If we've not seen this MAC before ... 
       If ( 0 = Instr( sList, "|" & eLine & "|" ) ) Then
          ' ... process it, then ... 
          DoSomethingWith eLine 
          
          ' ... make a note that we've seen this one. 
          sList = sList & eLine & "|" 
          
       End If 
    Next
    Regards, Phill W.

    Re: Word vector with repited words

    And yet another simplistic method using a collection. This is not case-sensitive and shouldn't be when comparing mac addresses.
    Code:
    Dim c As Collection, lIndex As Long
    
    Set c = New Collection
    On Error Resume Next
    For lIndex = 0 to UBound(yourArray)
        x = c.Item(yourArray(lIndex))
        If Err Then
            Err.Clear
            c.Add lIndex, yourArray(lIndex)
        End If
    Next
    On Error GoTo 0
    
    ' the collection now has indexes into the array items, no duplicates
    For lIndex = 1 to c.Count
        ' do what you want with array item yourArray(c.Item(lIndex))
    Next
    And there are probably a dozen or more other methods of filtering out duplicate data. A simple search in this forum should have proved useful.
