File Content Was Modified
Aug 20, 2011
I am working on a vb.net project which is concern about the computer file forensic. Thing is i wish know is there any idea how do we know a file was modified and which part of the content was modified. For example, a file was consist of number of bytes which could be translate in string with HexEditor (* FF D8 00 EF.....). If someone was modified certain hex number from the file like (* 00 00 00 EF....)How do we know those hex numbers was modified? Any .NET class function can peform the action like that? Or is there any idea to do that?

I have a number of files in a folder, I need to get the last modified date. So I used FDate = IO.File.GetLastWriteTime(FName) Works fine with some files, but on others, I get a date of 1/1/1601. But when I check the files in Windows Explorer, all the dates look normal (recent). So, I'm gessing there are multiple files dates stored in the file system, and the ones dotnet is seeing are not the ones windows is seeing. How can I get exactly the date which appears as "date modified" in a file explorer window? I tried some vb6 api stuff but that doesn't seem to work in dotnet.

scenario:
-folder x resides on server a, server b ,server c
-x contains same set of files in a,b,c
whenever any file gets modified in a, it should get also modified in b and c as well
similarly b->a,c and c->a,b
my idea of implementation is -when ever any file is modified on a server, compare timestamps and force copy the modified in the other two How should i go for implementing it?
1)how to check if a file is modified
2)how often this check should be done and how this should be implemented should a service be running to perform thi check i want to do this using .NET?

I'm writing a .txt file which is loaded using the following code. When running a Debug I get a message on closing the .txt file saying 'This file has been modified outside the source editor. Do you want to reload it?' Is this juszt a nag screen for the editor, or will I get an error from the final compiled .exe program build?

I'm using VB.net 2003 Standard Edition, and I'm trying to retrieve the file modified date. I've created a System.IO.FileInfo object, and have collected info from the three methods: CreationTime, LastAccessTime, and LastWriteTime, but they aren't giving me the same data as XP Windows Explorer is.In Explorer, there is a Date Modified field (currently reading 2008 on the file in question), but using the FileInfo methods they return 2007, 2009, 2009.Is there another IO object I can use to get this 'modified' date?

I was able to do this all successfully in VBA, but just couldn't convert it to work in VS 2008. Basically I'm in search for a script that Loops the following 3 processes, I also need it to run from an .exe file or similar with no UI (User Interface) so it constantly runs in the background (This is all to go with a multimedia software):
if file 'c:X.txt' has been modified equal to or more than 15 minutes ago, then send key R.
if file 'c:X.txt' has been modified equal to less than 5 minutes ago, then turn on numlock light, if not then turn off light.
if file 'c:X.txt' has been not been modified for the last 4 hours, then send key delete file.

I'm making a sort of like platform for archive editing.This includes opening archives, displaying content, extract files, edit files, place files back in the archives.My problem is, that I can't trigger the program to replace a file to the archives as soon it is modified.I did think of making a thread, checking all file modified dates, but since it regards over 100 files it lags. So that is no option

I have a folder that can (hundreds currently) but upwards of 10's of thousands of files. I have a program that gets all file names, and sorts them based upon set criteria and displays them in a treeview. My issue is right now a few hundred files moves fairly quickly when getting files name (path.getfiles), sorting, and returning sorted list for further search and display. My concern is when the number of files starts to increase, alot of these functions will take exponentially longer to perform. Especially my organizing function.
Because my files are part numbers <PartNum><Rev><SubRev><ManuNum>.<extension> I first sort out all different Part numbers first making the list manageable (maximum of a few thousand). Then as you choose a part number to work with, it retrieves all files associated with that part number (maximum of a few hundred).
My concern is everytime I need to look for a file in anyone of those steps, I have to import all file names, search and return correct file path, and Im sure this will become slow as the number of files increase. I dont mind having it do it once then update the list as needed. So I was thinking import and sort all file names at load, and check every so often for and files that might have been modified recently and just update it's entry in the sorted list. But this means my program has to stop, and check all files for changed "modified" time, which too will be slow-ish.

I created a background thread that constantly scans a specified folder for any .xls files that are created or modified. These files come from a vba macro in outlook that will automatically save the attachments of the mails in the this folder. This will update the modified date/time, or at least it seems to.
For Each fi In aryFi
fidate = System.IO.File.GetLastWriteTime(path & fi.ToString)
fidate1 = System.IO.File.GetCreationTime(path & fi.ToString)
[code]....
Everytime I check to the code, the fidate and fidate1 variables are indeed the correct dates/times of the file it's currently checking. It almost never gets inside the elseif block at runtime though.

I am writing a program to automatically recognize new data log files in a specific folder and proceed to process them in a routine I scripted. I have the program working fine for when I manually place files in there, but I know there will be an issue when my data logger is working because it will create files and then write to them for approximately 12 hours.[code]Which works fine, but how can I modify that or what should I use to force the program to wait until the file is done being modified? Say force it to wait at least 1 minute after the last modification?

I have an ftp routine which gets various files from a server and puts them on a client PC.My problem is it loses the original Last Modified Date on the client PC. I can get the last datetime modified from the server but don't know how to assign this to the file on the client PC. Is there away to alter the last modified datetime?

I have a page which lists all the files in a particular folder (all PDFs), using a data-table and gridview. I'm currently sorting this table by the filename (by using a dataview), which isn't that helpful, and I want the gridview of files sorted by the file created or file modified date (as recorded in Windows). If that's not possible, a second option would be to extract the date from the file name string (no problem doing that), and sort the dataview/datatable or gridview based on that.

I have to generate an XML file from several database tables. I could use the WriteXml method of the DataSet to do it, but the database tables are really huge and I can't add all those tables in the DataSet at the same time or it may cause a problem because of the big amount of memory used. Then I decided to use the DataTable's WriteXml method and save table after table, but the the generated file only stores the information of the last DataTable.WriteXml's call. How can I preserve the previous XML data when adding all that information?

I have a textbox on a form that is set to allow dragdrop operations from txt files.Basically you drag a .txt file onto the txtbox, the content of the text file is displayed in the textbox.All is working fine, however after the textfile is displayed in the textbox, the text box text is for some reason is highlighted.I don't want the text to be highlighted (or selected) after it's being displayed on the textbox.Second issue, after I close the file that I dragged, for some reason even if I didn't make any changes to the file, it is acting as if the file has changed.In another words, if I open a text file using my MenuItem Open item, and if I do not change the file, If I close the file it's fine it closes.However, if I close a file that I draged into the text box and then close the file without changing anything in it, the stringcompare function is telling me that the file has changed... I can't understand why.

I need some guidance on the best way to proceed with searching a file content.I have a large file (see attachment) that is in text form, some of these files could be upto 50 times as big, therefore creating a huge file.These files contain information that is produced from another application and therefore I am unable to change the format of the file.This file contains information that I want the user to be able to be able to enter search criteria in a form that then searches this file and returns information. The individual information is split into sections of data and this is defined by the section start label lbl{ and the end label }} Therefore the below information highlighted in bold is an individual section
lbl{-32768 21 12 0 text {Equip no: P-102BDescr 1: RECYCLE PUMP-BDescr 2:}}lbl{-32768 21 28 0 text {Equip no: D-100Descr 1: COLUMN RECIEVERDescr 2:}}Now comes the hard bit, in the bold section above you will notice that there is some text Equip no: P-102B I want the user to be able to enter in a form *102B* and for it to return -32768 21 12 0 which is after lbl{ and before text.Now obviously I could loop through the whole file to do this, however I am very concerned about RAM usage and also the time it will take to do this. Obviously the user could use this search option over and over again and therefore we would be searching the same file over and over again. One of my thoughts was to read the file once and output the content in an Access Database table and then use SQL to get the information? However would the user require Access on there machine to be able to do create the database or could I just ship a blank Access database with my app and then copy this and populate? Also I am not sure if Access is the best database, obviously I don't want people to have to use Oracle of SQL as this would require server configuration etc. but are there better free databases out there?

This method will only verify the file's extension, not its actual type. Once I receive the file, I want to examine its contents to determine what it really is, in this case image only.
How do I examine the file content being uploaded?

i successfully established a file upload and a function to store it in a database... but what i'm missing is the whole and same content of the file. Another thing is i don't want the file to be saved in a local folder or somewhere..i just want it to be save directly to my database Below is my sample code of trying to retrieve the content.. but it is an error when you run..
