IDE :: How To Make Backup Files
Jul 17, 2008
(VS.Net 2005/VB.Net)Why is it that VS.Net does not create LOCAL backup files of edits? Is there a way to make it do that?I accidentally overwrote a day's worth of changes by attempting to do a manual mergeoutside of VS.Net.Is there a way to make VS.Net create backup files of your changes each time you save?Delphi does it using an extension of .~pa for your source files and .~fm for your form files.This way, if your system crashes, which VS.Net is certainly going to do, you wouldn't lose the changes you made since your last save point.I know, I know, I shouldn't have been doing the merge outside of VS.Net but I had my reasons and now I[m paying the price.I just wished VS.Net was a little better IDE than it is because, frankly it sux. I am forever waitingfor something and not very productive using it. Hey, I'm getting good at watching paint dry because that is what developing in this tool seems like.

Im trying to create an incremental backup utility on a web form using vb.net for code behind.
So far i can copy files from directories including sub directories and that part works fine, my main problem is copying only the most recent / modified files to the backup folder, currently it is moving all the files each time.
Below is my code so far.

Is it possible to make a little backup program that can backup from one folder to another, is this much work? With a calender also that can be picked up so you can chose when the backup starts.
Im thinking about f.example 10 lines where you can chose where to backup from (different folderes) And one line where the backup shall be saved. All this with browse folder off course. And with a button backup now and a button backup from the date. A very little program with an easy use.

I have my desktop app, bound to an access database. I want now to improve a button so the user can make a backup of the *.mdb file.So i used this
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
If FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath <> "" Then
FileCopy("BDGRACIA.mdb", FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath & "/BDgracia.mdb")
End If
End If
It works fine when i try the app from within Visual Studio. But when i install it it won�t find the database because it was installed elsewhere.Is there a way to control where the DB is installed and follow that route? Does this depend on the OS the app is installed? Or did I face the problem wrong and i should do something completely different with my button?

A routinely used application suddenly became impossible to access, with and error code indicating that the "VB Backup\Backup" file cannot be found. When I click File Open, the projects display as always. I select the application, double click the .sln file--and nothing happens. When I try to access the .vb file in Solution Explorer, it says "Cannot find VB Backup\Backup Files."
What are the Backup Files, when are they created, and why would they suddenly be "gone?" Is there any way to rebuild the Backup Files? I used the application last night and it worked fine. Today it can't be opened because the Backup Files cannot be found.
I have backups of the application folders, but get the same error message. Cannot be opened because the Backup FIles cannot be found.

I am writing a backup program that zips files. Using some sample code I have the following that creates a zip file. Problem is it does not get any subdirectories or files. Where am i going wrong?
Dim azFileNames() As String = Directory.GetFiles(SourceFolder)
Dim objCrc32 As New Crc32()
Dim zipStream As ZipOutputStream
[CODE]...
Alternativley, there is another component to the zipping dll that I could probably bypass the above altogether. It is: FZ.CreateZip(DestFile, SourceFolder, True, "", "") Where DestFile is (Output stream as system.io.stream). I'm trying to read all the files, directories, sub dir and files, etc from a specific location, let's say 'My Documents' into Destfile in which the FZ.CreateZip zips the file. FZ is FastZip which is from icsharpcode.net. They have c# examples, but that's greek to me. I'm trying to just learn VB!

I want to make an application that moves all files from 1 zip to another and deletes a folder.
It is a Minecraft mod manager, so i wanna move all files from one zip containing the mod, to the minecraft.jar (which is a zip with another extension) overwriting all files. Also, it should delete the META-INF folder in minecraft.jar to prevent black-screening.

I am currently trying to make an overview of certain files in a database. To make it easy to use I decided to use a tabcontrol so the user doesn't haveto click other buttons to go too another overview.My question now is, if i have 2 different datasources ( so 2 connections to a different acces database ) and I want to show detailed information about them, on 2 different tabs, using a bindingnavigator to scroll through the records. How do I do this? It's always just one tab working and the other doesn't.

I am trying to make an app which can send/receive files/pictures. I am trying to make a app which will get a picture of the users screen and send it to me, and display it in a picturebox at a set interval. With this, I will be able to sort of see what someone is looking at without having to have him send screenshots constantly.
Remote assistance does not seem to work for these apps, shows black, but I can make the program already get an accurate screenshot and display it of this program, I just need to know how to make it send it to me and display it to picturebox.
The thing I have been using is the MultiUser TCP chat application off MSDN's website, I don't know if this will work, but I need to make it send somehow and display it.
