I need to run my program as admin because it accesses the registry on load. Well I wanted to implement a drag and drop feature but have come to find there is a access issue with running as admin and the dragenter event. Is there any known workarounds for this? I have searched all over the place.Just a side note I only need to get the file location from the item being dragged in...

I recently just started working somewhere which will involve me coding VB in MS Visual Studio .NET 2003. I've been trying to refresh myself in VB by reading things online, but I just discovered an error while trying to run some practice programs (attached as error.png). Basically it says that I need administrator access.I'm waiting on an IT guy to grant it to me, but in the meantime I'm trying to figure out if there's a way that I can test my code without being an administrator.

I'm working on a music player (I'm a beginner), I've gotten the basics down but I've been stuck on something for the last few days.
I'm wanting to have a listbox that (only) music files can be dragged onto, once they are dragged onto it I want the listbox to add it as an item on that listbox. So basically, I'm wondering how to drag items onto listboxes, restrict that to only music files (specifically .wav & .mp3) and have that dragged item be added to the listbox.
PS. I'm making this media player myself, without WMP or DirectSound (I believe it's called).

View 9 RepliesI'm developing an application in vb.net. You drag any type of file onto the exe, and a window pops up with some options for the file, then it saves the file to a different location, works some SQL magic, etc. It works great for the most part. The only issue I've found is that if the path of the file contains any spaces, the application will crash immediately with the error window:[URl]..I'm using: Private filename as String = Command$ This is located right inside my form's class declaration, not within a sub/function.Without this line, my program runs fine (although useless, without accessing the file).I've also tried (I think this was it, I don't have the code with me at the moment): Private filename as String = Environment.CommandLine So, in vb.net, is there a way to drag a file onto an exe and use that path name, even if there are spaces in the path name?

In old vb6.0 it was easy to highlight the target item, where to drop those dragged rows.
Private Sub listView_OLEDragOver(Data As MSComctlLib.DataObject, Effect As Long, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single, State As Integer) Set listView.DropHighlight = listView.HitTest(x, y)
You can get the item to drop to in VB.NET:
Private Sub ListView_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal _
e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles _
ListView.DragDrop
[CODE]...
Now we got the index and item, where to drop. But then what? One possibility to do the HighLight is change the ListViews state to "LVIS_DROPHILITED" by sending Windows message "SendMessageA(lvw.Handle, LVIS_DROPHILITED, 0, 0)". But when is the right time to do that (DragEnter or DragDrop event) and what are the right parameters? Didn't succeed on that yet.
I've got a research application that is hosting a webbrowser control and I'm implementing a feature that allows the user to select text from a web page and drag it to various research note fields. The issue I have is the dragenter and dragdrop events continue after the initial drop, inserting the text multiple times. Here's the test case on my box and the result.
Select Text in Browser Drag to Text Box Drop Text What happens is after the drop event is fired and the text inserted to the drop target, when you move the mouse after dropping the text, the drag enter event is fired, followed by the dragdrop event, then another dragenter and dragdrop. So, selected text such as "Selected Text" becomes "Selected TextSelected TextSelected Text".
Note: The dragenter event is properly raised once when the mouse enters the textbox, however the mouse does not have to leave the textbox after the dragdrop event fires. i thought there was something wrong with my application so I created a simple test app, containing a Webbrowser and a multi-line text box. This test app generates the same results and the code is below. This is the first time, I've implemented
drag and drop operations and I followed the guidelines noted in this MSDN article. While I did what the article suggests, I'm thinking I need to note the event was handled somewhere.

I have a combobox that drops up instead of down. I'm setting the selected item to the one on top of the list. I'd like to move my mouse pointer to point to it, so that the user that wants to click on that item doesn't have to move his mouse. I found how to move the pointer, it is with this command:
Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position = New System.Drawing.Point(x,y)
but I need to know how to get the location of the selected item in the combobox.
We have a menu strip with 4 toolstripmenuitems. In mosue right click i need to show one toolstripmenuitem as dropdown menu. here i am able to show that tool strip menu but it is populating at the top left corner of the screen. I need to set the location as cursor location.
View 1 RepliesWell the title pretty well describes my problem. Here is a little bit more detailed description of my problem: I am building an application with a TabControl, which I populate at execution time with TabPages. In my first version of the code, these TabPages were filled with a children ListView. The ListView was also created in code, using AddHandlers to link it to the DragEnter and DragDrop routines. Everything worked very well... Now as I need some other controls on every TabPage, instead of creating every single control in code, I have created a UserControl containing a ListView and a few Buttons, which I instantiate for every new TabPage. The problem now is that the DragDrop event is not raised anymore

I'm having trouble with copying file with permission. In my program, my objective is just to copy a file to another directory, however I'm having some permission problems with "Access to path denied" error appearing when I run the program. I'm logged on in the computer with an Administrator account, and I kept having that error. I can manually copy the file, with UAC dialog box popping up. (I'm using Server 2008, I don't want changing UAC settings/permissions in the computer)
how can I copy a file to another directory, with an administrator permission? Is this possible? Can you give me a sample code.
Here is the code I used for copying the file.
Dim sourcefile As String = "C:Sample Path Location" & "thefile.exe"
Dim destinationfile As String = "D:Sample Path Location" & "thefile.exe"
System.IO.File.Copy(sourcefile, destinationfile)

I'm trying to build a project where I have a set of products in a listbox. When you select an item in the listbox, a picturebox shows the preview of that certain product.I practically finished the entire project as well as the picture part; however, I realized that the way I set up the coding, I used image locations from my hard drive meaning that someone can't view them on another computer.This is a portion of my coding:
[highlight="Dim PicSelection As String
PicSelection = ListBox1.SelectedItem
Select Case PicSelection[code].....
Currently, when I double click on my current list, even if there isnt an item at the current mouses location, it calls the event and uses the last highlighted item. I know it is possible to fix this by using a selected index change event, but I require the list items to be double clicked
