Get A File Inside A .zip File Without Unzipping The .zip File?
Jan 21, 2010
I am trying to create an application that will copy files with a "*.1" extension over to another directory and change the file extension to .tif. The problem is that the *.1 files are located within zip files. Is it possible to copy files out of a zip file without having to extract it? The code I have so far is below. I have only gotten to the point to list all *.zip files found in a specific directory in a listbox. I am really looking to list all *.1 files found within all .zip files in a specific directory. Once they are all listed in the listbox, I will then chose a destination directory, copy them to the destination directory and change the files from a .1 extension to a .TIF extension.
Private Sub Button4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button4.Click
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath = "C:\"

I have File Like "Sample.bak" and when I compress it to be "Sample.zip" I lose the file extension inside the zip file I meann when I open the compressed file I find "Sample" without any extension.
I use this code :
Dim name As String = Path.GetFileName(filePath).Replace(".Bak", "")
Dim source() As Byte = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filePath)
Dim compressed() As Byte = ConvertToByteArray(source)
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(destination & name & ".Bak" & ".zip", compressed)
Or using this code :
Public Sub cmdCompressFile(ByVal FileName As String)
'Stream object that reads file contents
Dim streamObj As Stream = New StreamReader(FileName).BaseStream
[CODE]...
I need to compress the file without loosing file extension inside compressed file.

I have a vbscript that does the following but I want to do it in vb .net and was hoping someone could post some sample code to get me started. The script does the following. Monitors 2 folders specified in a config file. When a zip file is put in the one of the folders it us automatically unzipped to a working folder and then the zip file is renamed to unzipped-<zip>.zip. I am hoping someone could post a visual studio project or code that might help me get started.

I need my program to 'take a peek' into a ZIP file and see if it contains a certain file. I need it to do this many times for a large number of files, so I would prefer it without having to unzip the entire zip-file each time, as that would take far too much time (it's a fairly large zip-file of about 250 MB).Also, I don't need the actual file at all. All I need to know is if it exists inside the zip file.
vb.net
If IO.File.Exists("C:FolderIPFile.zipfolder_in_zipfile.jpg") Then
' "file.jpg" exists inside zip-file!

Reading a .txt file in VB.net. My file path is C:UsersMyLilMulePepeDocumentsVisual Studio 2008Projectscurtain_calls.txt.
This is my line of Dim LoanOptionsFile As String = "C:UsersMyLilMulePepeDocumentsVisual Studio 2008Projectscurtain_calls.txt"
I can read the file when I run the program, but how do I write the file path so that someone else can download my program and file and read the file on their system?

im new to coding (started coding last month) so im a little stuck on how to do this, im making some emulation programs to learn coding with, and a part of it is to point the app to a .iso/.bin file and scan the data inside of the iso/bin to check if a file exists.[code]My issue is i cant find any class examples, or any information etc on how to code it so my application can see the data inside of the iso/bin instead of just see'ing the iso/bin file, so that i can then check the data inside the iso to see if the file exists etc.Im a novice still at coding so making a new class myself to look inside the iso/bin is to complex for me.

I am trying to create a log file which I am going to use to populate some controls (DataGridView or Treeview). I am trying to figure out if should use text files or XML files to do so. Effectively the log will highlight multiple phases in a client-side app. The log will be written to at various phases when the project is running. The user will always have the options move on to the next phase or save progress and exit the project. As such, I want the log file to highlight how far the user has progressed throught the various phases AND I want the log to highlight varous information from each phase. Whenever the user starts the project, they will be given the option to load existing log files. So the project will have to read these log files and append them where necessary as the user progresses.
I am not sure what the best way to do this is and below is a rudimentary approach using text files. As you can see, the top of the file would have a summary of all the phases and whether or not the user completed each phase. Next each phase would have a data section highlighting what data was stored along the way. I have used a ":" to denote each section. Then within each section I would obviously need to use a delimeter for all my data. So if Phase1 = True, then I would load all the pertinent data from "Phase1:" into the desired control. Can anyone provide an efficient way of doing this and provide some insight as to whether I should use XML instead. The phases my change during development and I am not sure yet which controls I will be using. Does XML provide more flexibility.
In summary I am looking to create, read/write and append log files and populate controls with the data in varous sections of the log file. Example:
Phase1 = True
Phase2 = True
Phase3 = False
Phase4 = False

I need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
Here's what I know:
1. how to open a new file
2. how to specify the record length
3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?

I am working on a VB Console Application that takes an Autocad drawing type DWG and converts it to a PDF using a shell command that calls a third party application. In this case, acmecadconverter.exe from www.dwgtool.com. Then the PDF that is created needs a unique watermark, so I call a second application for that called pdftk.exe from www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/.
Everything works as intended, except when I try file names that contain spaces. The file system object does not tolerate spaces in the drawing file name. For instance, the following command gives me a system.io.filenotfoundexception...
My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile("Test Flowchart1.dwg", "Test~Flowchart1.dwg")
It's the same problem for all of my File System commands. Either file not found or invalid arguments.
The complete script I'm using is here:
Code:
Sub Main()
Dim arrArgs() As String = Command.Split(","), _
i As Integer, folderPath As String, myPart As String, _

TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>
TextHere<Tab>TextHere<Tab>TextHere<NextLine>
I have this so far, but all it does is put the TextBox1.Text next to TextBox2.Text
Code:
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*"

I have an app I created in Vb2010 (my 3rd VbApp) it is a file converter which works but all it does after convert is... I have a converted file but no file name plus it converts within its own directory as opposed to convert in dir where original file location.
So any clues as to how I always use file to converts name as defa and where the converted file will reside same dir as original file?

I'm creating a DLL file that has a reference to another DLL file.Is it possible to create a DLL file with the other one inside (thus not referring to another DLL file somewhere outside, but referring to itself).Eg: I've a.dll referring to b.dll.I want to include b inside a, hence having one dll file instead of 2.I know this is not the purpose of dynamic link libraries, but my libraries are about 15kb and with not page fault so often. So it doesn't really matter.

I have an external project (DLL) that I have referenced in my project. One of the requirements of using that DLL is to include an XML file in the same directory as the DLL. Now I know in a production environment I could just add that DLL to the GAC and place the XML file in that same folder. However, that doesn't help me when I'm trying to debug it. I have tried including it into the BIN directory but it never gets moved to the Temp directory when compiled.
