I'm trying to list all subdirectories in a directory. I wan't to show only the Name of the directory. For example "Program Files" not "C:Program Files".
This will not work for me, because it returns full paths.
Dim Dirs As String() = IO.Directory.GetDirectories("C:")
I tried using:
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(Path)
Dim Drs As IO.DirectoryInfo = di.GetDirectories()
But it returns an error. What should I use instead?
How can I do this? I tried doing looking in
My.Computer.Filesystem
and
FileIO.Filesystem
I'm running in to a problem and all the google searching for the past 3 hours haven't solved it.I'm using Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows 7 Enterprise x64 OS.Programs Intended Use: This will be a pre-deployment assessment program, to be run by the end-user to calculate difficulty of the deployment(setting up of new computer) to see if we can send a student or send a full time staff.It will grab the username, computername, os, etc which are all already working. I want it to grab the size of the user profile (C:Users%Username of currently logged in person). This is where I'm having difficulty.The function works fine on the desktop folder, but on mydocs it comes up with access denied errors, as well as "LocalApplication Data" being access denied.[code]
View 3 RepliesI have downloaded a program for moving files and it accepts visual basic instructions. I want to down a level all the files from multiples subdirectories to its parent directory. Example:
I have this:
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X012X01.avi
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X022X02.avi
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X032X03.avi
And I want to have all the files in just one directory, like this:
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X01.avi
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X02.avi
C:VIDEOSTHEWIRESEASON 22X03.avi

The error comes from within the .bat file, navigating to the specified directory."F/Program Files/ Tversity/Media Server/data/ if i run cmd, then manually navigate to F/program files, i cannot navigate into any other directory within program files. Wierd..if there is an easier option to just use vb.net without launching a .bat that might help please let me know. i know i am not showing any vb.net code, but it just launches a .bat file. i know the forum rules, but i am hoping that someone might know why i can't navigate to my program files. it is not permissions, i am an admin on the local machine no domain.
View 1 RepliesI have come up against another brick wall I have a large number of .csv files which are located within subdirectories of lets say the "c:emp" directory. What I need to do is find all of these csv files, open them individually, perform an operation on each and then close each one.
What I am struggling with is the part where I find all of these csv files. What I would ideally like to do is search through each of the subdirectories, return a filename (including complete path) as a string which I can then use in my code to open the files individually and perform the operations.

I am creating an application that will pull all of the files ending with .txt out of a directory, however, the directory contains folders with .txt files in them as well. How can I search the entire directory including sub directories to get all .txt files to show up in my list box? Right now I am only getting .txt files that are right in the directory, but not the .txt files that are located in other folders located within the directory I chose.
i want to get all drives and their directories and sub-directories displayed on a tree view just as windows explorer.

basically im looking to have two textboxs with 3 buttons
TextBox1.text contains the path to the new file and
TextBox2.text contains the path folder to subdirectories
i have everything i need working, haha i know not much, this is only my second day with vb.I just needed a button now to carry out the function of copying the file i tried using simple file copy but i had to specify a file output in that and it only gave me option to copy it to one directory.For instance
C:index.php TextBox1.text <- loaded in from button 1
C:www* TextBox2.text <- button 2 loading subdirs
now i need a button 3 that would carry out the function of copying textbox1.text to all subdirs in textbox2.text.i thought i would have been able to use simple copy as stated above with wildcard in my program but no joy

View 3 RepliesIs it possible (I'm sure it is) to validate a user's credentials against Active Directory without using Directory Services?I'm building a Browser-Based WPF application which requires users to login to and get validated via Active Directory. Since .Net 4.0 (or maybe 3.5) accessing Directory Services from an Application requires the application to be fully trusted. Since IE won't provide full trust to an application if it doesn't have the signing certificate in it's cert store, the application is refused startup permission.
If I don't use Directory Services, then I can leave the application as Partial Trust and validate my user's credentials without having to install a certificate on each user's machine.
I have a straight-forward task I'm attempting to accomplish. I have the mechanics down, and need to hammer out the details but I'm stumbling across one small point. :)
This script is supposed to take the files in the local C:Temp directory, and copy them to a selected user's shared directory on the file server.
Protected Sub btnCopy_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnCopy.Click
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory("C:Temp", "\MAVERICKVOL1Users" & ddlName.SelectedValue & "DESKTOPRECORDINGS", True)
End Sub
This script does indeed work (and I'm aware I need to create exception handling) but it only copies what contents are on the server's directory of C:Temp rather than the local source directory.
I'm using VB.NET/ASP.NET to achieve this.
How am I able to direct my function to use the local user's directory rather than the remote server?
