Temp Directory Maybe Not The Best Place To Install Log File On XP?
Jul 21, 2010The following code for installing log messages has worked on Windows 7 and XP, until I came across an XP machine where someone had deleted the Temp file under Documents and Settings/ComputerName/. Is there a safer location to install a log file?Path.GetTempPath doesn't seem to be the best idea.
Public Sub appendLog(ByVal message As [String])
Dim format As String = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss.fff"
System.IO.File.AppendAllText(System.IO.Path. Combine(System.IO.Path.GetTempPath
, "Log.txt"), vbLf + " " + DateTime.Now.ToString(format, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + " " + message)
End Sub
Copy A Selected File To A Selected Directory?
Aug 19, 2010I've mainly been doing ASP programming up 'til now, and I have a pretty simple question.
I'm creating a program that will copy a selected file to a selected directory, and I want to store recent files/dirs so that they can be selected from a combo box. I was planning to just create a settings with "files" and "dirs", and just store the strings as | separated values (since that's an illegal file character).

View 8 RepliesSelect File From FTP Directory For Download On My Page
Jun 30, 2011I am developing a website in ASP.Net and VB.Net to allow users to upload and download files from and to an FTP site and my desktop.
I have successfuly got the upload side working.
As far as the download part is concerned, I have so far got it so that when the user goes to the download page, the FTP file list appears so you can see the files that are currently residing on the FTP site.
I was wondering if there is a way that I can program my site so that the user can select one of the files and click on the 'Download' button that I have?
Here is my code so far:

View 1 RepliesMove Selected File To Directory?
Dec 12, 2011First off, I am completely new to VB and have no previous programming experience. I was required to take an Intro to Visual Basic class.
As a result, I was assigned to write a program for my final project. My professor wanted us to challenge ourselves and try to design something we would use. While my fellow classmates chose damage calculators and stat calculators, I chose to write something that would move files around. It was challenging for a beginner, but i figured i would be able to find alot of help in my book and online. I'm impressed at myself that I've made it as far as I have, but I've hit a snag in the road.
The project is due friday, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to move the files... which is a bit of a problem.[code]....

View 12 RepliesRe-download The Whole Package And Install It?
Jan 26, 2010I'm getting a new computer, and I want to keep VS 2005 instead of upgrading because:
- I don't want to have to upgrade all 143 of my projects.
- I don't like the way VS 2008 looks.
- VS 2010 is just slow to the point of absurdity.
- I don't want to have to re-download the whole package and install it, which took about 4 hours for VS 2008, 10 hours for VS 2010.
Is there a way to just copy everything over? It's Express Edition. Also, would the old setup file work, or is support for VS 2005 completely gone?

View 2 RepliesCerate Installer Project - Install Framework 3.5 SP1 From Local Source Instead Download It?
May 7, 2009I created a small application and an installer project for it. I can install and also run it, only thing htat i dont like is that during setup, it downloads .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and this takes long sometimes. I want to have it on the installation CD later.
I have seen in the installer's detected dependencies, that there is the 3.5 framework contained and it has a InstallURL property = [URL]..I am a little confused about all the Framework stuff on this site - so just 3 simple questions:
1) which file exactly do i have to download,
2) where to put it and
3) what to write into the property InstallURL then? (Maybe needed to change also other properties)?
