Error ImagePlease assist, I get a "Type expected" error on my code for a windows based application. I get the error on this line "Dim objSW As New StreamWriter(objFS)"

The problem is that you have named your project "StreamWriter", which causes "StreamWriter" to refer to the namespace of the project. Maybe you should use more a bit more descriptive project names in the future just for clarity?
You can fix this by referring to the real StreamWriter with namespace:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim strFileName As String = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\empout_fixed.txt"
Using objFS As New FileStream(strFileName, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)
Using objSW As New System.IO.StreamWriter(objFS)
Dim strEmpName As String
Dim intDeptNbr As Integer
Dim strJobTitle As String
Dim dtmHireDate As Date
Dim sngHrlyRate As Single
strEmpName = “Thabo Lereko”
intDeptNbr = 1001
strJobTitle = “Junior Programmer”
dtmHireDate = #10/05/2014#
sngHrlyRate = 99.99
' Write out the record to the file ...
objSW.WriteLine(strEmpName.PadRight(20) &
intDeptNbr.ToString.PadLeft(4) &
Space(5) &
strJobTitle.PadRight(21) &
Format(dtmHireDate, "M/d/yyyy").PadRight(10) &
Format(sngHrlyRate, "Standard").PadLeft(5))
MsgBox("Record was written to the output file.")
End Using
End Using
End Sub
End Class
Ps. Added the using-statements that should always be used with iDisposable-objects. Removed the unnecessary close-call also.

I have linked an Access database to my program. It populates the DataGridView as it is intended to so that part of the program works. However the new data that i add to my DataGridView wont show up and I don't know what is wrong with my code.
Can anyone see anything wrong or something I've missed out that would cause the code not to function as desired? Thank you in advance :)

After adding new data to your database, just use

to refresh.
As the title implies, I am trying to create a progress bar that updates with a file transfer. I am currently using Visual Studio 2019. I have been through dozens of articles and videos all claiming to do just this. After many days of testing, I have gotten close, but the progress bar will still only update after the file transfer is complete. I am using multi threading techniques to accomplish just this much. I would very much appreciate if someone could just lay it down for me on how to do this. Here is my code so far. It doesn't really help for making it but you can at least see what I am trying to achieve. I also left out some large chunks of commented out test script.
Summary of what I need to is: Create a script that will copy the specified directory and all sub directories. While doing this I would like the progress bar to move with the file transfer.

I am making a program where i have 2 text files and i want 2 get one line from each text file like this

Dim allLines As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)

You can instantiate a couple of Integer typed variables to help with this. One stores the line number as you iterate through the list and the other stores the line number you are seeking. Plus, by changing your For Each approach to a Do Until or Do While approach you could potentially speed things up if the target is found prior to the last line of the file.
Dim intLineNumber As Integer = -1
Dim intLineCursor As Integer
Do Until (intLineCursor = allLines.Count OrElse intLineNumber <> -1)
If pathlocal & "from.txt".Contains(My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo(allLines(intLineCursor)).Name) Then
intLineNumber = intLineCursor '+ 1 if you are displaying to a user since the lower bound is 0 based.
End If
'Increment the cursor variable.
intLineCursor += 1

I have a report that I need to print after a sale has completed.
I am having issues with the length and printing when using PrintForm and PrintDocument components however if I right click and select Print from the list the report prints perfectly.
Is there any way that I could write code in my form load event that would imitate the right click print?

My program is able to retrieve data from an excel macro 2010 workbook and change contents and save changes made, all using the datagridview within VB.NET. However I'm facing a problem where the program saves but will not close. When I look at the processes in the task manager its still showing Excel 2010 as running. If anyone can help me find a way to quit this application I would greatly appreciate it!

You obviously have a lot of code and I can't go through all of that. However I dealt with this problem in the past. It is usually due to an unreleased object of some kind. For example lots of code samples from the intertubes suggests that you do things like
objWorkBook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(txtFilePath.Text)
This is potentially dangerous, you should never have more than ONE . in a single right hand value. Instead go for something like
Workbooks wrkbks = objExcel.Workbooks
objWorkBook = wrkbks.Open(txtFilePath.Text)
Otherwise there will be memory allocated for the WorkBooks that isn't explicitly released. This is really a pain to go through all your code base once you've discovered this, but it solved the problem for me.
Your NAR sub should have it handled, but I far prefer Marshal.FinalReleaseComObject method - no loop required. You need to make sure all instances have been addressed - like in the closexlsfile() method you do not call NAR for these Com objects. I suggest some code cleanup.
