View 7 RepliesBasically I download lots of TV shows and they're never named in the way I like; they're named like this "The Office.S06E22.HDTV.XviD-NoTV."So I was wondering if I had a .txt file with all the episode names I could make a program to rename all the video files in the right order so they're named like this "The Office Season 6 Episode 22 - Secretary's Day."So I want to copy and paste a list of correct episodes names into a text file. Then I want to read the text file, which I already know how to do. Then, and this is the bit I'm struggling with, I want to read the text file, one line at a time, and it renames the top video file with the top episode name and so on.

I have Form1 with the following 5 buttons in it.
-Button23
-Button3
-Button46
-Button21
-Button6
IS THERE ANY TOOL (OR AN ADD ON)IN VB THAT CAN RENAME THESE BUTTONS FROM BUTTON1 ...TO BUTTON 5? I do not want to change them one by one manually...
I inherited some code left behind by a previous programmer and it includes code in a Sub named Form1_Load. Now, I know this was auto-generated at one point, but Form1 no longer exists. At least I don't think so. My question is, why does this Sub even run? Is it because there are copies of the original Form1 in the working directory no longer associated to the solution? I'm going to save the solution and rename the Sub to resemble the new form name to see what happens.

View 4 RepliesI am desinging a form with mutiple controls on a tab page control and was moving controls between tab pages by cutting and pasting them. The forms designer obviously got confused at some stage and I now have controls that are declared in the designer.vb but do not appear anywhere on the form.
I can't even rename the controls that are there which have been given generic names to the names I want because they apparently already exist. I realise I could edit the designer.vb and remove the references to these controls but that seems fraught with danger?
I have a VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008 that I created a specialized addin for. The addin prompts the user to select a database table, takes a template form class's files, copies them to another directory within the project, and renames the form class within the copied files. It then opens the new form and adds controls to it based on the fields in the database table.
The copying of the template form causes the background compiler to give 'duplicate member' errors, such as "Private Sub InitializeComponents(...) has multiple definitions with identical signatures," even though I renamed the files of the new form and the class name within them. Sometimes these errors go away before the new form is opened, but when they stick around the new form doesn't open correctly, and it throws an error instead. I implemented some code to wait until there are zero errors in the error list before trying to open the new form. This has helped sometimes, but for some reason sometimes the errors don't go away at all until the addin is closed.
How to copy the template form and rename the copy without the background compiler ever noticing duplicate members. If that's not possible, then perhaps someone has an alternative?
Here is my code that copies and renames the template form:
Private Sub CreateDataForm(ByVal tableName As String, ByVal displayName As String) ', ByVal subDataForms As IList(Of Object))
Try
Dim dataFormClassName As String = "frm" & MakeValidName(displayName)
Dim dataFormFileName As String = dataFormClassName & cVBSuffix
[CODE].......................
I have a program that uses two forms. The program opens to the Main form, and the user can navigate to the other form from the Main form through use of a button. Here's the way I've currently written it: When the Main form loads, it declares and instantiates the other form during the load procedure. When the user presses a button, the second form is displayed by means of the ShowDialog method. On the second form, there is a Return to Main Screen button which closes the second form, bringing the user back to the Main form.
So, here's the structure of the code:
Code:
Public Class frmMainForm
Dim frmSecondForm As New SecondForm
Private Sub btnSecondForm_Click(blah, blah, blah) Handles blah, blah, blah
[CODE]...
Here's my reasoning: Originally, I wrote the code so that a new instance of the second form was created every time the button was pressed. The problem was that whatever data was displayed on the second form, previously, was lost when the user returned to it a second time. Since the user would be switching back and forth between these forms, frequently, I needed that data to persist.
What is the best practice for accomplishing this:
1) Declare and instantiate the second form on program start, as I have done, and use the button simply to show the form?
2) Declare and instantiate the second form each time the button is pressed but maintain the variables on the Main form and pass them ByRef to a custom constructor for the second form? Is this even possible?
3) Something else?
I am using vb.net 2008 i have been using a mdi form which is the startup form for my prog. and i have a main menu on that form. now i would like to shift to tree view as my client has asked for it. whenever a node is selected i can select the form corresponding for that particular code. everything is fine till here. but when the form is loaded the tree view is coming on top of the form the tree view is docked in a pannel. now i have tried everything treemenu.sendtoback and the say the form to b called is taxtypemaster then taxtypemaster.bringtofront but still the tree view is coming over the form
I have tried the following :
Dim mMenuSelected As String = e.Node.Name
Select Case e.Node.Name
[CODE]...
Even the visible doesnt work as it seems after the .show it makes the tree view visible again. how do i hide the treeview pls. someone guide me at the earliest. i feel it is not the prob. of treeview but something to do with the mdi form am i right ?

I am currently working on a project that contains a few images, that are placed in a lot of different controls. I was wondering, is it possible to rename those few resources images , ex. image1 name is bg, and when i click a button to rename that image to bg2 and rename bg2 to bg.. something similar to an image swap, just done by renaming resources. I will wait for a few suggestion, but if all lead to the same possibility, which I hope is not "no, you can not", than my time is narrowed down for better use, other than changing each control's image manually..
View 9 RepliesBuilding a MP3 player fairly large but will upload the zip file if needed. It almost compelted. I am stuck on one thing I want to be able to create a playlist collection based on the name the user enters into a textbox and name the collection with that name if the user enters mysongs as the name the collection would be named mysongs. I know how do declare a new collection but there is no way to change the name to mysongs I am not limited to collections it could be an array or a list of strings my thought here is to save the list of mysongs to a collection to find the list if it already exists and open the list if found to a listbox I know how to go through the list and put results in a listbox. Maybe a collection of collections is not the right way to handle this?

View 2 Replies i want to rename a string that contains a number, when the program starts the string looks like this:
d1_filename, but could as well be like: d8_filename.
so, depending on the starting name, i want to rename the string.
If the string is d1_filename, the renamed string would be d2_filename.
or also: if the string is d23_filename, the renamed will be d24_filename an so on.
I have a VB 2008 project XYZ. It is in an XYZ folder. I want to keep it, but I also want a copy of it which I will call ABC which will be in the ABC folder. How do I do this? Just moving files to a new folder does not work. I have found a few places to make changes like the assembly name, but there seem to be many places and I haven't found them all. I found some old posts for earlier versions of VB but they are not applicable.
