Adding Drag & Drop Like Windows Explorer?

Dec 4, 2010

The following website appears to show you you might do Drag/Drop that works like explorer does but I don't know what the code would be in VB, what exactly i'd need or anything else. It's a quite large code base just to make it so you get the same effect as explorer even though it seems to be API's or .dll's that should handle most of the work.

If the API's & .dll's available for this don't handle most of it I don't see why not because well if your meant to get the same effect why is it going to be handled mostly by code? I would think it would be as easy as passing an image or file/folder as string & then there the image is & possibly the functions you want to be allowed or text to be displayed for the drag action & then a little more to determine where your trying to drag to so what the text should be changing to.

Anyways heres the website which has a lot of the information/code in non-vb language, even when translated to VB using online tools I couldn't figure out what did what or what pieces I needed to get a basic drag action to work that has said visual information like explorer does.[URL]..

Extract File After Drag - Drop Request Made To Explorer?

Dec 10, 2009

In my current project I've run into a problem with dragging and dropping from my app to Windows Explorer. My app requires an "Extraction" of a virtual file (almost like a ZIP/RAR archiver would). The problem is, with all of the dragging to explorer solutions I have found online requires you to have a extracted file already on the filesystem (most likely in a temp folder) before you initiate the drag-drop. I'm trying to do is be able to extract the file AFTER the drag-drop request has already been made to the explorer.

What is the difference between launching Internet Explorer and going to a web site with Flash and it runnig OK vs. launching a URL from a VB .NET WinForm application (using either Shell or Process.Start) and getting prompted to accept the use of the Flash Control?

VS 2005 - Creating New Application (Solution Explorer Window)

Mar 16, 2011

I seem to have some finger trouble creating a new application, here is what I am trying to do: I am trying to create a new solution and under the solution an exe (console project and a set up / deployment project. I have done this in the past and cannot see to do that any more.

Steps:
1. Create a new solution, the solution show in the solution explorer (with 0 projects)
2. Using "add" I create a console application (under the solution) and it shows a module etc. So far fine.
3. At this point the solution explorer windows only shows the console project and the solution itself (that used to show on the top) is gone. Now I am not able to add another project to my solution. I close my screen and then try to open the solution again. It comes up with the console project.

Internet Explorer Gives Script Error With WebBrowser Control In .NET Application

Mar 12, 2011

I made a simple application for a website, the site has a IRC-chat and the program should let you close the window (or actually minimize it to the system tray), and then open it from the tray.the problem that occurs, is that I keep getting a Script Error from IE:url...the weird part is that this does not happen when using Internet Explorer on it's own.so it only happens within the WebBrowser Control in the application I made.the application, also, couldn't be more simple, it had just a single window with only a webbrowser control that loads url..., further the program only has a Notification Icon and a Contextual MenuStrip for the Notification Icon.

and i have to put there a new value of
"[TARGETDIR]MyApplication.exe" "-file=%1"

It only adds a new value to the registry...Also i want to be able to do the same thing with folders...

Creating A File Explorer Similar To Windows Explorer?

Aug 1, 2010

I want to make a program that is similar to Windows Explorer. It will have a button that when you click it it opens a FolderBrowserDialog and it will have an area that displays the contents of the selected folder. I want to have a label that displays the current folder path (i.e. 'USERDocuments...') and I also would like a feature to search all files on the computer.Also, is it possible that when I click on a file in the contents of the selected folder it displays its information (i.e. Name, Size, etc.)? And can I also make it so that if you double click on another folder in the current folder's display it opens that folder? And can I have a button to go up one directory?
