2008 - Error: StreamWriter Destination Unreachable
Mar 3, 2009I am using the Streamwriter to send simple messages to other machines in my office. But i hit across a problem today which i never thought about. If the computer im sending the message to, doesn't have the listener running, the sender crashes out. Is there anyway to trap the error, and deal with it nicely (i.e a message box) instead of the app quiting?
View 3 RepliesStreamwriter And Strange Charactors - Opening The Streamwriter With Different Character Sets As The Third Parm?
Apr 21, 2010I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

View 7 RepliesTransfer From One FTP To Another - Destination File Corrupt
Mar 17, 2011I'm transferring from one FTP (a Dev site) to another FTP (a Test site). Spare me the thoughts of changing this process. In any case, here's my method:
Public Function TransferFile(originalFile As String, destinationFile As String) As String
Try
'FileStream for holding the file
Dim uploadRequest As FtpWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(destinationFile)
uploadRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile
[Code] .....
This works perfectly for ASPX files and their .vb code behinds. When we try to transfer .DLL files, they show up on the server as 0 bytes, and sometimes actually transfer. The problem is that, despite being the same size as the original, they act as if they are corrupt.

Mar 13, 2010I have searched the web for an answer to this but can not find one anywhere. I have a program that will be sending text to different text files based on a selection in some combo boxes, I was wondering if it is possible to select the file path based on the combo box variables eg
if the user selects hello and then 4 in the combo boxes then the text will be saved to

or if they select hi and 5
w = New IO.StreamWriter("c:projecthi5.txt")

New Streamwriter - How To Pass Full File Path
Mar 5, 2012I have 2 programs.
Prog1.exe is in folder1
Prog2.exe is in folder1/subfolder
When I execute this in Prog1,
Process.Start("subfolder/Prog2.exe")
Prog2 runs.
But...When I execute this in Prog2,
Dim sw as new streamwriter("1.txt")
sw.write("something")
sw.close
1.txt is created in folder1, and not subfolder.
I can do a easy workaround by passing the full file path when creating the streamwriter, but I just want to know if it's a bug or what.
