If i manualy delete one of these files wich are not realy important for the application then when i restart the application i see that somthing like an installer places the original file back again in the folder.

I'm curious to know if you can close files out in .net, I'm currently getting this error if the .fil temp file gets populated. I call the 'Kill' command to close the file after the user is done using the program but errors out if the file is open/in use, I've researched and was unable to find a definite answer on if .net can close files out through the program, is this possible?

View 12 Replieshow I could make an application in visual basic 2008/vb2005 that detects when a new file is downloaded. One of my old time friends created the same app with visual basic 2008. It notifys you when your attempting to download a file. For e.g: I try to download "aim6.exe"
it will show a message: "C:UsersMATTST~1AppDataLocalTempsXx0Fd31.exe.part is attempting to be downloaded"
I think it uses a file system watcher.

I have a webapp where a datagridview is populated with records from a database and one of the columns is a download link to download the zip or exe file. We have the zip files on our server, but not the exe files as those are on another department's server. We have all of the file available for download, but if the user as an option selected in a dropdown, those url's in the gridview are re-formatted to be the exe file's on the other dept's server, however they don't have all of them (some 20% are missing) which means if the user click's the link they get their server's 404 not found page and can't download the file.
My PM (Project Manager) is asking me if I can have our webapp detect that the file doesn't exist on their server and instead of them getting the 404 page, they don't leave our app at all and get a javascript popup window or the page is refreshed with a red mark (and a message) next to the link they clicked on, is something like that possible? I have 2 restrictions with this, I can't modify the database because it doesn't contain file paths, it only contains a small portion like (Clinton County, Eaton County, Traverse County, etc..) and the rest of the url is formatted on the fly when the page is rendered, so there's no way to mark the missing files and there's no way we can host the files.
I have my own web browser and download manager... How can web browser detect when user wants to download a file? And how do I stop opening of IE window for file download?

I am using the following to do a file delete: System.IO.File.Delete("C:TestTreeTestLaunch.xml")
The problem is that I do not get any error if the delete fails. My main worry is if the file I am trying to delete is marked read only and the app can not delete it then the user will not know that the delete failed
Also - Any way to see if a copy failed? - I am using the following to do a file copy: System.IO.File.Copy(C: emplate.xml", "C:TestLaunch.xml")

View 1 RepliesI'm going to do my graduate dissertation this year .My title is develop a forensic tools which is able to detect and analyse the file signature then compare it with the extension.If the extension is wrong match with the file signature then there is a feature in the tools that would revert the wrong file extension to its original state.The problem is there is little information could be found online that shows the code library or function that could enable me to program the above mentioned feature.Could it be implemented on the vb.net or i should do it on C#?Any sample code that could peform the file signature with the extension and also correct the file extension according to the signature in vb?
