Check If Logical Drive Is CD/DVD Drive
Jun 16, 2009Is it possible to check if a Logical device gathered through a WMI search request is a CD/DVD Drive? Right now, I can get the path of every Win32_LogicalDisk through WMI, but E: (for me) is my DVD drive and unless there is a disc, my program fails because it tries to count the number of folders/files on the disc.
Ultimately, I'd like to be able to tell if it is a CD/DVD drive then check to see if there is a disc there before I do anything else to it. Can it be done using WMI?

View 12 RepliesGet The First/last/min/max Logical Item Of A List?
Dec 17, 2010Sorting arrays are useful when you want to get the first/last/min/max logical item of a list. I.E. A list that contains numbers and you want to find the Min/Max (without LINQ), you can sort the list and pull the first/last element. It's also useful to display lists to the user in alphabetical order.
View 2 RepliesLogical And Bitwise Operators?
Aug 9, 2011According to MSDN The And operator can act as a bitwise operator OR a logical operator.The only way to know if it is used as One operator or another is, If it is on the right side of an assignment operation? for example x = 3 AND 5. I cannot find any other instances where the bitwise operator would be used instead of the logical operator, are there?

Feb 19, 2012I'm running the following WMI script to get the associations between drive letters and physical drives on the system, but for some reason it omits CDROMs/DVD-ROMs. Can someone tell me how to get those as well?

May 21, 2010I need to test a logical expression held in a string to see if it evaluate to TRUE or FALSE.(the strig is built dynamically)For example the resulting string may contain "'dog'<'cat' OR (1>4 AND 4<6)". There are no variables in the string, it will logically evaluate. It will only contain simple operators = > < >< >= <= and AND , OR and Open and Close Brackets, string constants and numbers. (converted to correct syntax && || etc.)
I currently acheive this by creating a jscipt function and compiling it into a .dll. I then reference the .dll in my VB.NET project.
class ExpressionEvaluator
{
function Evaluate(Expression : String)
{
return eval(Expression);
}
}
Is there a simpler method using built in .NET functions or Lamdba expressions.
LINQ - Logical Difference Between Max And Aggregate?

Storing Conditional (Logical Structures) In XML
Jan 20, 2009I have the need to express simple conditionals as program input. The input must be human readable. Is XML suited for this? For example, I have the following conditional statement:
If AnimalType = Leopard And (SourceCountry = Kenya Or TargetCountry = Kenya) Then
ZooKeeper=Jack
Else
ZooKeeper=Jill
End If
Expressing the above in XML might look something like this:
<If>
<Conditional>
<And>
<AnimalType>Leopard<AnimalType>
[Code] .....
How best to represent conditional statements in XML? I haven't yet explored using attributes. I don't currently have the need for nested 'If' statements or the 'Else If' clause, but I'm going to try and work them in anyway. Perhaps the VB code is more 'readable' than XML can be in this case and I should create a custom flat-file format instead.

View 1 RepliesFinding Physical Drive Number Using Drive Letter?
Jun 16, 2009I have a program that allows the user to enter a drive letter into a text box. The program then takes the letter and find the physical drive number (i.e. deviceharddisk3..). It then stripes out everything and leaves me with the number 3.
In VB6 I used mDrive.bas from vbAccelerator.com and it worked perfectly. I have been all over the internet and back and cannot find a solution written in VB.NET.

Reading And Writing Files On External Hard Drive, Code To Ensure SQL Or Data Read/write Execution In Case Of Periodic Drive Reconnect?
Dec 18, 2010The drive is connected via USB and the problem I'm having is that, periodically, while my code is executing, the usb drive seems to disconnect and reconnect. (Nothing to do with the program, but the drive itself).I want to find a way to prevent these temporary drive reconnects from interrupting my code. IE, i want to insure that whatever read or write that is requested is actually executed even in the case of a temporary drive interruption.

View 1 RepliesGetting Physical Drive Number From Drive Letter?
Jun 17, 2009I am trying to get the physical drive (device) number from the drive letter. If the user inputs the drive letter C the program will find the associated physical device number. For example if I input C then the result needs to be \Device\HardDrive1\... Some call it NT Device Name; I think. I have the code for VB6 from vbAccelerator, which works perfectly, but it does not work in VB.NET. My question is there a simple way of pulling the drive info that contains the drive letter and the physical device number. I have searched the internet and found nothing for VB.NET. I would post code but I have nothing for .NET.

Jun 16, 2009I have a program I am converting from VB6 to VB.NET and I am stuck at the very last piece of code. I need to determine what physical device number is associated with the drive letter.
The program takes the drive letter from a text box and goes and finds the device number (i.e. deviceharddrive3...) and strips out everything leaving me with the devicer number; in this case the number 3. I have searched the internet to and fro and found nothing in VB.NET.
My program in VB6 uses a .bas module from vbaccelerator.com called mDrive.bas and works great. I can't figure out how to convert it over to VB.NET.

View 2 RepliesForms :: Determine A Dynamic Drive Letter For A Directory On The Removable Drive And Then Open That Directory In An Explorer Window
Feb 19, 2009First off a short background of the project I am working on- I am developing a program that will be run off removable media (i.e. USB Flash drive). This will be a �virtual desktop� which you will be able to take with you and have the same �desktop� on any system. As we know drive letters can change with each host system the drive is plugged into, I need to be able to determine the path for the flash drive and access a specific folder ( i.e. My Documents)
I have an picture box(representing the icon) placed on my form (form1) and when I click the icon I want to be able to open and view the a specific folder from the portable drive. I need a click event that will determine a dynamic drive letter for a directory on the removable drive and then open that directory in an explorer window.

Detect CD Drive Regardless Of Drive Letter?

The problem is that the Drive letter "I:" is not consistent. Sometimes when I connect and disconnect external devices, the CD Drive letter changes and then my code doesn't work unless I open the project, change the letter "I" and recompile.What code can I use that will ALWAYS detect my CD Drive, regardless of the drive letter? (Like for instance, NERO will detect and burn CDs regardless of the drive letter)
