The TabLoad() function doesn't seem to be working on clicking of this dynamic button. The aim of this button click event is that it deletes text from a text file and loads the form again.
Below is the complete code. The TabLoad() function is in the NextDelbtn_Click sub at the end.
Also any suggestion regarding change of code is appreciated.

Your problem appears to be that you're initializing new controls but you're not changing the controls on the form or even creating a new form.

I have written code to add a button based on the number of buttons the user needs to add to the form. I am having a very difficult time figuring out how to save the buttons that have been added during runtime and have them persist to the next run. I tried using My.Settings, but have had no luck. Any help would be appreciated! Below is the code I am using to add button(s).
Private Sub UploadNew_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles UploadNew.Click
Num = InputBox("How many lines to add?")
Dim pt As Point
pt.X = 9
pt.Y = 67
For x = 1 To Num
DocName = InputBox("What is the name of the document?")
Buttons(x) = New Button
Buttons(x).Location = pt
Buttons(x).Height = 35
Buttons(x).Width = 434
Buttons(x).Text = DocName 'assigned earlier in code
SplitContainer1.Panel1.Controls.Add(Buttons(x))
pt.Y = pt.Y + 43
Next
End Sub
I use the binary serialization. It probably could be done with XML serialization also. The trick is to mark the class as <Serializable>You might think we could just serialize the button but that is not marked as serializable in the framework.

I'm a new programmer. I've been warping my brain around this for 2 days. Can seem to see the problem. It seems I can only add 150 records to the dictionary. I'm not sure where its failing in the code. I'm not getting any errors or warnings.
Really hope someone can give me a hand.
Heres a link to my file I'm working with.

I got asked a couple of days ago how to save number of clicks you have done to each button in a program to a small file, to keep track of what is most used. Since it was ages ago i dabbled with visual basic i said i would raise the question here, so here goes.
There are 5 buttons labels Button1-Button5. When a button is clicked it should look for the correct value in a file.txt and add +1 to the value. The file is structured like this.
Button1 = 0
Button2 = 0
Button3 = 0
Button4 = 0
Button5 = 0
So when button1 is clicked it should open file.txt, look for the line containing Button1 and add +1 to the value and close the file.
I have tried looking for some kind of tutorial on this but have not found it so i'm asking the collective of brains here on Stackoverflow for some guidance.
Thanks in advance.

Either wrap your code that has Convert.ToInt16() calls in them with Try/Catch blocks, or convert them to the Int16.TryParse() approach instead.
For example, this line:
Dim s As Int16 = Convert.ToInt16(DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(3).Value)
Could become:
Dim s As Int16
Dim strValue As String = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(3).Value
If Int16.TryParse(strValue, s) Then
' ... do something with "s" in here ...
' ... continue with code...
Else
MessageBox.Show(strValue, "Invalid Value")
End If
I have a tab in a form. On form load, I am getting text from a text file line by line and displaying them as labels on a form Tabcontrol Tabpage along with dynamically displaying buttons beside them. Now on those buttons click I want to copy the text in the associated labels. Can anyone suggest what to put in the Nextbtn_Click event?

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim i As Integer = 1
For Each line As String In System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(FILE_NAME)
Dim NextLabel As New Label
Dim Nextbtn As New Button
NextLabel.Text = line
Nextbtn.Text = "Copy"
NextLabel.Height = 22
Nextbtn.Width = 55
Nextbtn.Height = 22
NextLabel.BackColor = Color.Yellow
TabPage2.Controls.Add(NextLabel)
TabPage2.Controls.Add(Nextbtn)
NextLabel.Location = New Point(10, 10 * i + ((i - 1) * NextLabel.Height))
Nextbtn.Location = New Point(120, 10 * i + ((i - 1) * Nextbtn.Height))
AddHandler Nextbtn.Click, AddressOf Me.Nextbtn_Click
i += 1
Next
End Sub
Private Sub Nextbtn_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)

Store the assc. label in the tag property and you can cast it back when you click on the button. The sender object is the button that is currently clicked.
