View 6 RepliesFile I/O and Registry :: Remove empty folders from a TreeView
View 6 RepliesI have seen lots of examples with a treeview to list folders then display the folders context in a listview.
But what id like is a checked treeview, that not only displays the folder list, but the actually folder contents as well.
I have a treeview, it lists all folders and subfolders and files within each folder. Now, I want to display each file / folders associated icon. I am using the SHGetFileInfo API, it works sort of, what I mean by sort of is, that my treeview doesn't update after each folder / file. Sometimes it keeps giving me the Recycle Bin's icon at different folders.

i wanna list all the path of every folders contained in a main folder in a listbox Here's my problem
For Each level1 As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDirectories("C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersDesktopdatabase")
ListBox1.Items.Add(level1)
Next

I found this code on here to open a text fille, do a find & replace then save the changes, and the code is in a loop that will do that to every file in a given folder. My question is I also have files in sub folders, and more sub folders, and i'm not sure how deep it goes. I want to recursivly go though all the sub folders and do this to all the files, not just the files directly in the main folder.
Here is the code so far:
Code:
FolderBrowserDialog1.Description = "Select Path for files to edit"
FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog
OpenPathVariable = FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath

I'm making a cleaning program and one of the things it does is cleans the recycle bin. How do I do it for Xp, Vista, and 7? I'm on Visual Basic 2010. Also, how do I make it so that it automatically finds the username and uses it when the program deletes a folder. Right now I have it so that you need to enter your username in a textbox and then it uses that for the directories. I know it's something with SystemInformation.UserName.

How can I open a tab delimited text file and remove the columns that are empty and the save it? Empty columns are those that have no value in the first row.

I want to write directly to the source file. The files I want to edit are only about 30KB
i need to be able to check files in a folder to check if any has spaces in there names and then remove the spaces.
So, Aero Vista.jpg will become AeroVista.jpg
Here is my problem-> I have three folders that I need to check if they are empty or not, if one of them is empty, I would like to keep checking the other two, if they are not empty I want to do something and then check the other two, but not all the time all three will be empty or not empty there might be times where one folder has something and the other two not and so on. I just want to check a folder and if its empty go to the next one but if not do something and still g to the next one to check if it empty or not, an so on.
View 3 Repliesive been searching round the net but the only examples i can find are for vb6 which i know nothing about, i want to be able to scan a folder and all sub folders with in it and delete any folders which are empty.
This is all the code ive put together so far:
vb Dim folder2scan as string = Folderbrowser.selectedpath
If IO.Directory.GetFileSystemEntries(folder2scan).Length = 0 Then
End If
I am currently writing an application, where the user clicks a button, it scans for empty folders and then puts them in a listbox.The user can then then select the folders in the listbox and click delete. how to i get the scan button to find the empty folders?

I am trying to populate a TreeView control with all of the folders and files in a specific directory.I have a folder C:Temp and under this folder it has 3 more folders C:Temp1, Temp2, Temp3. Under each of these folders are files.How can I populate a treeview control recursively to do this? I have been working on it, but my code is extremely wrong and I couldnt find anything that helped by searching.

I want to find a registry key with sub-folders to be included.
Example : I have find "ApplicationName" in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE" with subfolders for SOFTWARE.
This is somewhat of a multi part question, let me start off by explaining what I'm trying to do. I have an organized folder system with data files in them. Each folder has a set structure to their naming, and can contain sub folders and files. It will be a jagged directory system. I'm trying to import their structure into a TreeView. I have the workings of a recursive system that adds all files and folders into a ViewTree, however they aren't organized by parent/child.
So I get this...
-C:Temp
-C:TempData
-C:Tempfile1.txt
-C:Tempfile2.txt
-C:TempDatafile3.txt
-C:TempDatafile4.txt
etc........
How would I go about parsing the directory paths, and include them into a parent/child relationship... looking like this
+Temp
--file1.txt
--file2.txt
-+Data
---file3.txt
---file4.txt
Also I when the line item is selected, I need to know which file is selected so I can use it's full path to call up data (using an API) based upon the it's full root path.
How to index files,folders,subfolders in selected folder and then inset information about them to treeview control?

like this
I have used the TreeView and populated the list using the following code:
m_strStation = cboStation.SelectedItem
For Each strDir As IO.DirectoryInfo In New IO.DirectoryInfo(m_strPath & m_strStation).GetDirectories()
trvFolders.Nodes.Add(strDir.Name)
Next
The TreeView populates and every folder is visible, however the folder names consist of:Place #. Name the problem I am having is that the number range is 1 - 16 and the order in which the folders are being displayed is 1, 10, 11, ..., 15, 16, 2, 3, ..., 8, 9 I am looking for the folders to be listed in true numerical order e.g. 1, 2, 3, ..., 14, 15, 16
TreeView is perfect control. I have to load Folders as Nodes to TreeView, and files to load NodeChilds. How to do this?
View 3 RepliesThis is driving me crazzyy. I need a simple way to display all of the folders and subfolders of an FTP directory in a treeview, similar to the layout of Windows Explorer. Here's the code I have:
[Code]...
The code is total crap... causes my app to hang. Pretty sure infinite recursion is the cause.
I'm loading a folder (path), which contains folders and files, in a treeview according the combobox-text.
When I load the app. the combobox is filled with the paths. I'm using the SelectedIndexChanged to load the treeview. Everything works.
The issue is that it also starts to load the paths the treeview also gets loaded (slow), but it should only load when I select an item in the combobox.
I tried comboboxselectedtextchanged etc, but without any luck. Besides that loading the files and folders is slow.
Can i monitor changes to the registry like monitoring the files and folders using filesystemwatcher?
View 10 RepliestreeView control which has been plaguing me for the last few days.
I'm not exactly sure what is causing this problem to arise, so I will just explain what my program is trying to do.
I am building an application which will have plugin support. I have created a Plugin interface, which is implemented by each plugin, as well as a host interface, which is implemented only by the host application.
Each plugin has an Action subroutine, and when finished, it is supposed to call the ExecutionComplete subroutine in the host interface.
Now, onto the problem. I have a treeView on the host form, which has several nodes in it. If I create a button on the form which displays a message box with treeView.nodes.count, it shows up fine, and everything works as expected. If I attempt to display the same messagebox from the ExecutionComplete subroutine, it also gives the correct number of nodes.
This is where things get a little weird. I have implemented a save feature into my program, so you can save and load data. For some weird reason, if you have loaded the data from a file, rather than adding each node manually, it now returns an empty node collection ONLY if I try to access it from ExecutionComplete. If I try to access the nodes from a button, it still returns the correct values!
What could it possibly be about the ExecutionComplete subroutine that makes it return a value any different than what is returned when the exact same code is placed in a button click event? And why does it only happen when I've loaded the data from a file? I just don't understand how loading it from a file is any different than them adding the nodes manually. The nodes are definitely being added, as I can see them, and the button click event can also see them. Also, ExecutionComplete is obviously able to read the contents of the treeView, because it works just fine if the user has set up the treeView manually.
i have qustion in vb.net iam going to use treeview to list all registry values in my computer i mean every things in regestry like when you using run and write regedit
