I have added a .jpg file to the resources folder in my project. I then added the file as a resource so it shows up under the resources folder in the Solution Explorer. However, when I go to call the resource file in my code it doesn't show up in the list of available resources. Here is what I am trying to do:

i want to use this call to the shell32.dll. But i dont know how to translate this to vb.net.
[DllImport("shell32.dll", EntryPoint = "#262", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall, CharSet = CharSet.Unicode, PreserveSig = false)]static extern void SetUserTile(string username, int whatever, string picpath);
I want to use Shell32 as a reference but, not that it's place as Interop.Shell32.dll in my folder. So, I want my application to use "C:WindowsSystem32Shell32.dll"
I need it for an unzipper.
I have been trying to use Shell32.dll to zip files, I have also attempted to create empty zip folders dynamically and have had no success, I was able to create an empty zip folder but when I try to use the zip folder I receive an error message and the zip folder created remains empty. Error: QuoteWindows cannot create the Compressed (zipped) Folder. [Code] If I use the empty zip without creating a new one this is the error message: QuoteFile not found or no read permission. The empty zip it creates is 100% valid with Windows Explorer.

View 2 RepliesI need to unzip en zip some files in my application using Shell32. Right now, I use srcFolder.CopyHere(destFolder.Items()) to achieve this. However, my next line of code requires the newly made ZIP-file. But since the CopyHere method is Async, how can I check when it in finished? Right now I use a Thread.Sleep for around 500 ms which is enough for my computer to finish creating the ZIP file, but it's not good code imo.

View 2 RepliesThe reason I ask is that I want to print, at run-time, a file in the application's resources, like this:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim printProcess As New Process
printProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "C:UsersGeoffrey van WykDocumentsCountdown_Timer_Help.rtf"
' printProcess.StartInfo.FileName = My.Resources.Countdown_Timer_Help
printProcess.StartInfo.Verb = "Print"
printProcess.Start()
End Sub
I want to know if it's possible to move a file from the file system into my applications resources.And if so, how?

When I use "C:UsersGeoffrey van WykDocumentsCountdown_Timer_Help.rtf" as the argument of FileName, it works. But when I use My.Resources.Countdown_Timer_Help, it says it cannot find the file.
I want to unzip files from my program, so i'm using the Shell32 functionality like so:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim sc As New Shell32.Shell
Dim srcDir As Shell32.Folder = sc.NameSpace("zippath")
Dim destDir As Shell32.Folder = sc.NameSpace("destinationpath")
Dim items As Shell32.FolderItems = srcDir.Items()
destDir.CopyHere(items, 256)
End Sub
End Module
This theoretically works, but i'm unzipping an 8Gb compressed file and the dialog that pops up says it will be done in 1day, 19hours. This is ridiculous because when I just right click on the file and decompress it from there, it takes only a couple of minutes! I can't imagine what the problem is! I know that the shell process actually spawns its own thread, so I worried at first that my process was exiting before the thread could spawn and added a Thread.Sleep(1000) after destDir.CopyHere() but it had no effect.

View 1 RepliesFor the last two days or so, I've been trying to get a program to compile another program that will extract a series of files and run them in a given order, like a self extracting zip archive.The program compiles fine and compiles sub programs, but I am unable to go about correctly embedding the resources.The output program shows the large amount of data ( ~12mb from the file I've been embedding to test ), and there are no compile errors.However, I cannot get it to access the resources correctly. It will either result in a compile error about the resource image not being valid / containing any resources, or a friendly "System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException" being thrown.
