I have hundreds of .pdfs that I downloaded that have names that are not helpful at first glance. Part of the download was a 'key' that lets me know which file belongs to which person (I have this in excel). I'd like to know if there is a vb script out there (or one I could get help writing) that would look in a folder and rename the files based on the accompanying spreadsheet.
View 5 RepliesI am working on a desktop application in VB.Net (4.0) There will a lot of SQL scripts which contains a lot of insert queries Currenlty we are running the scripts using SMO (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162557.aspx)For performance, we have planned to change the sql scripts to xml file ( instead of insert queries, it will have xml data with a proper xsd defined )Loads xml to dataSet and Using SQL Bulk Copy we are trying to insert to SQL Server.

It's just a small calculator project so it's no big deal, but after I had built the project, I wanted to change the project name and all the file names that had that string in it (and all internal references to that string). I had played with this before and knew that it was asking for trouble but I thought, "What the hell, I'll try it again." feeling a bit brash.
Well, everything works fine in debug mode, but there is this DOS window that pops up just before the main form does, and it doesn't go away for the entire debugging session. I think I see that window pop up on all other projects too (if the main form doesn't cover it up completely), but normally, it's only there for a split second.
I'm getting familiar now with using the Dataset Designer and how it makes for quick and easy updates and query of tables. I use to use the OleDB commands and leave the Connection String as a Global Constant so I can easily change it if the server name changes, or if we have to re-direct the .NET to another instance of the database.
But now that I use the Dataset designer I'm concerned that I maintain flexibility and support in the long run. how the Dataset designer works and where it stores it's connection string info? And how difficult that would be to update. It looks like I modify the App.config file, but I'm unfamiliar with this.
What am I getting myself into? It looks like a standard XML file. Is that it?

I am trying to achieve the following.

View 12 RepliesI'm developing a Windows form. It contains textboxes, checkboxes and so on. When I move these controls (e.g. cut & paste from one frame to another in the same form), their names do not change (and it's good of course) but their function and event names are changed. Why it happens? How to avoid it? It causes me to move all functions from the old control to the new one. It's a lot of work and very annoying.

I am trying some Uiculture change functionality. In that I need the name and text of controls in a form to change the culture. I got some Demo project and it is in C#. I tried to make the same functionality with the C#.net and Also using VB.net. But the below mentioned code returns control name with an underscore as prefix. But I don't want underscore. Code is actually written in Class library. It works perfectly in C#.
Code is written below

I am working on a VB Console Application that takes an Autocad drawing type DWG and converts it to a PDF using a shell command that calls a third party application. In this case, acmecadconverter.exe from www.dwgtool.com. Then the PDF that is created needs a unique watermark, so I call a second application for that called pdftk.exe from www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/.
Everything works as intended, except when I try file names that contain spaces. The file system object does not tolerate spaces in the drawing file name. For instance, the following command gives me a system.io.filenotfoundexception...
My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile("Test Flowchart1.dwg", "Test~Flowchart1.dwg")

I am attempting to gather a group of file names from a directory. I am able to do this. I tested the code by having the list populate into a listbox and all desired items were added to the list.
Here is my code:
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(strPath)
Dim dir1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.txt")
Dim dFiles As IO.FileInfo
ListBox.Items.Add(dFiles)
However, a listbox is not my desired output. I am attempting to write these file names to a text file for purposes of then parsing the information to a datatable to compare with another datatable. How to get my filenames written to a textfile.

How do I get the name of the last file of a set of files with similar set of names? I have sets of files with the similar names beginning with the same characters such as: D1A2-1.jpg, D1A2-2.jpg, D1A2-3.jpg, and D1A2-4.jpg. The set keeps changing (by adding new files of the same set up to it). I want to get the name of the current last file, for example in the set above it should be D1A2-4.jpg. How can I do this in VB2005?
View 2 RepliesI am doing work for a client who has lost the source code for one of their VB.Net WinForms applications. The assembly they have is not obfuscated at all. I am trying to recover as much of the source as I can as C# source and have tried several tools for decompiling assemblies, including Reflector, ILSpy and JustDecompile (all the latest versions), but they all produce code with a huge number of errors in them. Because of the large number of errors in the generated code, I am going to ask about the specific errors (in different questions), get more directed answers and in this way try shed some light on why all the tools are having difficulty decompiling this assembly. This question pertains to the fact that the code generated by all these tools always have a large number of invalid member variables (fields) such as the following:
private short $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$nHeight;
private ArrayList $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$oColumnLefts;
private StaticLocalInitFlag $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$oColumnLefts$Init;
why the generated code has these invalid member variables?
