Here is my current code, and it works fine to choose one image and copy it, however, I cannot figure out how to allow multiple file selections then copy them to a new folder.

I am using the following code to allow the user to select a directory and then list the appropriate files within that directory in a combobox. What I would like to do is sort that combobox into a descending order so the most resent files are listed first as the filename contains a date yymmdd.
ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
TextBox1.Text = FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath
End If
Dim BackupFolder As String = TextBox1.Text

I am needing to allow the user to choose a directory to save in. They can create a new directory if they want/need, and once they choose the directory, my program will save a few pre-coded files into that directory.
View 1 RepliesI am going to need to create a windows form for work that we can connect to a database table, select a directory and move files from the directory that are in the table and move to another folder. The directory will have sub directories that I need to search for the file name and move. I would like to have the table hold the file name (or path) and move all files that are in the database. There might be 20 files or 1000. Depends on the client we are processing for.

I'm designing a PC-based app that has a little local database. I'm using VB.NET with SQL Server Compact Edition. The user will only ever have access to one database file, because it's all about storing a user specific data. However I'm thinking of the situation where there could be multiple users that access the PC, each with their own Windows account. So ideally I'd need separate database files for each User.
I'm not sure how to implement this. I was hoping to deploy the 'empty' database as a ClickOnce deployment, but I can't see how I can have a database per user doing this. Also I'm not sure where to store the database files anyway. perhaps in MyDocuments for each user? Or perhaps I need to stick to just one database, but add a 'User' column into every table, so it can hold data for every user. I didn't want to do this though - because I wanted to keep the nice separation between the data offered by physically separate files.
I'm currently using this

View 8 RepliesI currently have two list boxes that have the exact same items in each. I don't want the user to be able to select the same item from both list boxes.
My code:
listbox1.Items.Add("SSS")
listbox1.Items.Add("AAA")
listbox2.Items.Add("SSS")
listbox2.Items.Add("AAA")
I'd like the user to not be able to select AAA & AAA from different list boxes, just SSS & AAA. I have way more items just thought I'd shorten it.

View 1 RepliesI am pretty new at VB but am trying to design an application that will allow a user to select from files on his or her PC, hit a '>>' button, and those files will appear in a list on the right side of the button (so I can then have the application upload those files via ftp). I am planning to use a TreeView control to act as a file explorer in the application. I have been unable to find any resources on the internet to populate the tree view with the user's local file structure, and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

We take as example Microsoft Windows Excel (doesn't matter which version). You know we can select cells in excel but I don't need cells to be selected. I want a location in a color (red) when I select with my mouse. (not when I click or do something else; it's like selecting on desktop in windows). So like I said it has to color in red the region I select on the picture (doesn't matter which picture, I was actually going to use a map of a city as background) set as background in a PictureBox or something else if it's better.

I have a SQL Server table with a list of files (path + filename), and a folder with multiple layers and files in each layer. I'm looking for a way to reconcile the two without having to process the list twice. Currently, I'm doing this:
For Each f as FileInfo In FileListFromDatabase
If f.Exists is False, mark it as deleted in the database

Is there a better way to do this? I'd like to avoid converting all the matching files (of which most will be) to FileInfo objects twice. Since I'm a T-SQL developer first, I'm picturing something like an OUTER JOIN of the two lists where they don't match. Something LINQ-ish?
