从文本文件中选择随机人并更改相应的值

标签: vb.net text-files file-manipulation

我有一个带有按钮和标签的表格。我也有一个包含以下内容的文本文件:

Bob:Available:None:0
Jack:Available:None:0
Harry:Available:None:0
Becky:Unavailable:Injured:8
Michael:Available:None:0
Steve:Available:None:0
Annie:Unavailable:Injured:12
Riley:Available:None:0

文本文件中的值为:

person-name:available-or-unavailable:sick-or-injured:months-they-will-be-unavailable

我想做的是让用户单击按钮,然后从文本文件中选择一个随机(可用)的人。标签文本将显示:

personname & " has gotten injured and will be unavailable for 10 months."

然后,我想用该特定人的相应值覆盖文本文件。例如,该人的第二个值现在将是"Unavailable",第三个值将是"Injured",第四个值将是10

我希望这是有道理的。

我没有任何代码,因为我实际上不知道如何执行此操作。任何帮助将不胜感激!
