Some of u already know I'm making a 'virtual desktop'- thing.Only one problem. When switching to a new desktop it starts a new instance of my app in that desktop (works) and on the form load event it says process.start("explorer.exe") <- here is the problem. It only shows a window not the actually bar.Also this may be important it shows the window, but when I navigate to explorer.exe 'C:Windowsexplorer.exe' and open it there. The explorer bar does show up.
I need help with file enumeration. I'm trying to create a program that can list files, folders and sub folders locations in a log file for diagnostic purposes.

I created a new ShellAppBar window (similar to the taskbar) but i want it to replace the taskbar. My question is: i can remove the taskbar but can't resize the desktop's working area, so my appbar is sitting above the taskbar (which is not even there).

I'm currently working on an application that allows users to select picture files and then categorize them into folders. Now I'm having two issues that are probably simple to fix but I only have a year of experience with vb so I just don't know how to fix them. The first and biggest issue is that once the user has selected and categorized a file, I want the program to select the next file in the folder that the first file was moved from. This way the number of clicks required is minimized. However I have no clue what I would need to do in order to accomplish this. Also, my other problem is that I want to be able to find the indexof a quotation mark but whenever I put it in the parameter it just reads it as a quote.

This is VBA6.5.1040 using an Excel 2007 (12.0.6524.5003) SP2 MSO (12.0.6529.5000) spreadsheet. The aim is to use a cell in which one can type "Y" or "N" in answer to a question. Before proceeding, the code forces the user to choose one or the other (section B). This works perfectly well. I then added the code in section A so that the user could type "y" or "Y". It would then convert "y" to "Y" and the code would proceed as normal, and similarly for "N". However, the following code in section A produces: "Compile Error: End If without block If," and high-lights the first 'End If'.
