CSV to DataGrid in VB.NET

Question

I don't know how to load my CSV file load into a datagrid view in vb2005.

I have two records as the following

9,N,010324405,,,,,,,,05071958,UU,Yoeun,,,,,,,,,,,M,M,KHM,,P,RESID,,,,,"St. Lum,Phum Ti Pir,Chrouy Changva,Ruessei Kaev",,,,PP,,KHM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,215,S,,DDD_70300098149,21082012,PLN,KHR,6000,1206013,N,N,6000,M,,12042013,67000.00,NO,120000,0,12052013,0,30042013,,,,

10,N,00032529,,,,,,,,18021962,SDM,Sok,,,,,,,,,,,M,M,KHM,,P,RESID,,,,,"#281,Phum Ti Muoy,Chrouy Changva,Ruessei Kaev",,,,PP,,KHM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,215,S,,DDD_703004167,20022013,PLN,KHR,10000,1510013,N,N,12000,M,,1802013,15660.00,NO,75000,0,1505213,0,3002013,,,,

My code:

For Each line As String In System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(pathname)
        DataGridView1.Rows.Add(line.Split(","))
Next

I want to read this format load to datagridview, any solution?

Don't use split, it will generate wrong result. – David - Jul 12 '13 at 08:14 — David -, Jul 12 '13 at 08:14

Try the following code

Dim TextFieldParser1 As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser(pathname)

TextFieldParser1.Delimiters = New String() {","}

While Not TextFieldParser1.EndOfData
    Dim Row1 As String() = TextFieldParser1.ReadFields()

    If DataGridView1.Columns.Count = 0 AndAlso Row1.Count > 0 Then
        Dim i As Integer

        For i = 0 To Row1.Count - 1
            DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Column" & i + 1, "Column" & i + 1)
        Next
    End If

    DataGridView1.Rows.Add(Row1)
End While

You can follow this url, using OLEDBCommand you can read CSV format. Take a look at p.campbell's solution.
