give me a function or class which have properties ?For example:I shared a folder (C:shared)
Dim clsObj as new clsSharedMonitor("C:shared")
'so that I can get its properties like:
clsObj.FullPath() 'Full Path of folder that client are accessing
clsObj.ClientIP() 'IP of computer which access to server

View 5 RepliesI have the following windows service file:
Imports System.ServiceProcess
Imports System.IO
Public Class fswService
[Code].....
2 problems: first, intellisense error saying: 'fswService' is a type and cannot be used as an expression. second, I can not figure out a way to pass on to the service the path of the folder to watch (which is stored at My.Settings.userPath).
Can I monitor the registry for changes similar to how sysinternals process monitor does it in VB? I have checked many different articles and C# samples but not come any closer to getting an answer, I would like to know if there an easier way (a VB sample perhaps)that you folks can share. Ultimately I'd like to be able monitor other things too like file system, processes etc but wonder most about how the registry can be done in VB...Would using system.management be a start? Or WMI? if so is there a nice VB sample..
View 3 RepliesMy program requires the reading and writing to a file that is shared among all users of a system. Currently I keep this file (an XML configuration file) in the directory that my application is installed to, which is C:Program FilesSomething by default. On Windows 7 (and probably XP too, but I haven't checked), regular users cannot write to this file. While I could probably set permissions as needed in my installation program, I'd rather find a more appropriate place for this file.All users need to read and write to it. Doing some Googling turns up C:ProgramData for Windows 7, but XP doesn't create this folder. Is there a common place on both platforms? Finally, is there an environment variable I can query for it?
View 2 RepliesI'm unsure if this should be in Office Automation or here, but I opted for here because I'm creating a VB.Net program to handle all of the office automation and my questions are a combination of the VB.net portion and some of the VBA formatting. At a high level I receive a file in email, put the attachment in a monitored folder, import the text file to excel, format the excel, and then email the excel file to a list of recipients. [code]Obviously the items above that are not complete are the bulk of the work, but I wanted to get some advice on what some of you think would be the best way to approach something like this. The import and formatting of the file are causing me some problems because I just can't decide what would be the most efficient way to do this. Having a template excel that contains all of the formatting already done for me and attempting to transition the data to this document (no clue if/how I can do this). Is it even feasible? Have the template already created and then import the text file to a new excel file, then transition that data to the excel template?
Something I thought about, in terms of formatting the document, was to record a macro of me doing all of the formatting that I'm going to need and then attempt to convert that macro into my vb.net code, but I'm not sure if that will work. I will need to verify that the text file comes in the EXACT format every time correct?

View 4 RepliesI want to save a bitmap object to file, but I want to make sure the file path is writeable first. The user should have write permissions to the folder and it should not be a location on a CD drive.Right now, it gives a "A generic error occurred in GDI+", which is not too helpful. I'd rather tell the user that the selected save location is not writeable.
View 6 RepliesI am making a file program that will store information that a user can not edit without using my file system. The only two ways I can see how to do this is to either create an invisible folder to hold the files, or make my own extension. I think it would be easier to create an invisible folder through VB if possible. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Can i monitor changes to the registry like monitoring the files and folders using filesystemwatcher?
View 10 RepliesI created a vb.net 2008 application to windows 7 with some functions that monitor a folder within "Programs". Folder you created during installation of this application. But every time you launch the software (the exe, after installing the client package) I get UAC and I ask for confirmation. I tried to edit the manifest (with admin user) but it always comes out. I would like to depart immediately launch the EXE application, without uac.

creating ones own folder structure through tree view similar to the windows explorer for a windows application,will the application work on all the systems over the network?? will the files added to the folders (of the treeview in the application),visible to all.or would the exe be required to be put onto the shared folder of every system?? what will be the exact architechture???
View 9 RepliesI found how to create a share in C# using the ManagementClass to create an object to reference the Win32_Share class and the ManagementBaseObject class to access the members of the Win32_Share class.My problem is that I want the "Everyone" permissions to default to Read only.When I set the share via Windows Explorer it works fine but the code in my C# application is allowing Full Control and Change permissions along with Read permission.I tried using the DirectorySecurity class but that blows away the Security permissions (under the Security tab)without affecting any Share permissions of the Everyone group (under the Share tab).I don't want to change the Security permissions, I want to change only the Share permission (you know, the permissions that appear when you hit the Permissions button on the Share tab).
View 4 RepliesNetShareAdd API from a VB.NET application (.NET version 2.0) and although I can get the API to just create a basic shared folder I now want to create a shared folder and specify its Share permissions (not NTFS permissions) as well, which means I have to pass in a SHARE_INFO_502 structure rather than just a SHARE_INFO_2 like I was previously doing for creating a basic share. I have spent over 5 hours solid just trying to get this working and am getting to the point now where I really cant think of anything else to try.I've encountered several problems whilst trying to make this work but the one I am finally stuck on is this: When I call NetShareAdd it returns the error INVALID_PARAMETER and the parm_ err object (which is supposed to specify which member of the SHARE_INFO_502 structure caused the error) holds the value 501. I know it is something to do with the security descriptor because if I comment out the line where I set the SHARE_INFO_502 structure's shi502_ security_descriptor field then the code works without an error (just obviously does not set the share permissons I want).I think posting all of the code here might be a bad idea as its currently over 150 lines long (yes that is only code for getting this API working...) so I'll just post my definitions of the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure and the code I am actually using to call the various APIs involved: [code] Each of those API calls prior to NetShareAdd returns a non-error value in the Debug.WriteLine that is done after each one, but there is obviously an issue somewhere with the security descriptor.

I need to open a folder on a remote server with different credentials in a window (explorer.exe).I managed to do it with no credentials (my credentials), but when I do it with another username and another password than mine, it opens a prompt to enter a username and a password, and it says "access denied".
In the access log on the remote desktop, it says that I tried to connect with my own username, and not the other username I entered. So, the process obviously did not work.

If I have a 'Shared' object defined in the App_Code folder; is that object shared amongst all users/visitors of my website? Or is it shared on a per-user basis?I don't know if that makes sense or not; but I've got a puzzle/solver I'd written earlier that I'm trying to incorporate into a simple ASP.Net site. It's probably poorly written, but I'd used a Shared boolean to determine if a solution had been found. The code works, now as an ASP.NET site, but if two visitors to my site were both validating their puzzle at the same time, would they both be accessing the same boolean?
