After it searches it can open notepad and display the results. The problem I'm having is that I'm a beginner and not familiar with file enumeration.

View 2 RepliesI am currently using the following to Get Path of all Open Explorer Windows:
foreach (SHDocVw.InternetExplorer j in new SHDocVw.ShellWindows()) {
if (j.Name == "Windows Explorer") {
ListView1.Items.Add(j.LocationURL);

But it doesn't return the location of special folders like Computer, Recycle Bin, Network etc. Is there a way to identify those folders so I can put the path on my own like shell:MyComputerFolder for Computer?

View 21 RepliesI am trying to achieve something which am doing very wrong, though the idea is present. I am trying to a move subfolders within a folder from the server the application is running to another server.
The code I have is shown below:
Private Sub MoveFiles()
Label2.Text = "F:New Folder (3)TestzippingutilityTestzippingutility1DailyCollection"
Label5.Text = "G:ippinyUtilityTestFolder"
Dim sFilename As String = ""
For Each myFile As String In IO.Directory.GetFiles(Label2.Text, "*.*")
[Code] .....
Problems:
1) myFile - reads files and NOT FOLDERS. This has to move folders instead.
2) ("fi.MoveTo ('destination')", - is not a sqlcommand and its not practically correct. If I ran it as it is, receive teh error message Sqlexception was unhandled. Incorrect syntax near 'destination'.
I have a directory structure as follows;
ad_folder
--folderA
--folderB
--folderC[code]....
at I do not know the number of or the names of the folders, they can be different in different cases, I only have the root path.how I can display folder contents in VB.net and the code worked but couldn't figure out how to create the arrays and display only folders within folders starting with "ad_".
System.IO.DirectoryInfo and System.IO.FileInfo to be used for getting the folders.A literal control can be used to create javascript arrays in ASP.NET. These js arrays can then be used on the client side.
I have been searching everywhere for help and cant find anyone or place nice enough to work with me.I work for a bank, and support 40,000 users as an admin on a team of about 20 people.We are always having to force log off users out of SQL and always having to restart machines due to stuck files or folders open, or for troubleshooting purposes. So i am working on an application that will log off and shutdown users from the network.I have the log off from SQL completed.However i am having trouble with the line for restart.I started off trying the shell command Shell("cmd.exe") and now i have switched over to Process.Start("shutdown")
If you have any admin experience on a full blown network or wan, you know that when using cmd or run the syntax is:shutdown -m \computername -r -f -t 00 where m is for listing computer r is for reboot f is forcing apps closed and t is for timer.I have to pull the workstation from a textbox inside our tool. Or at the very least input the workstation to the command prompt So when i try and place this into vb i am using this:
Process.Start("shutdown", "-m \""" & TxtBoxWorkstation.Text & """-r -f -t 00")However the whacks(backward slashes) are not correct in the code.Im trying to figure out where the whacks go in the line of code.Im not getting any errors in vb, but when the cmd prompt loads it does not initiate the command correctly because the whacks are in the wrong location

View 2 RepliesI would like to have a script to be able to move all the folders from one server to another.. Tried the following script in a batch file:

View 3 RepliesI am creating a form with the resources which I am creating a programming with languages. I have created three resources which the one that are ZH-CH (Chinese), el-GR (Greece) and en-US (English-United States). I have also built some texts in the resources so I have debugged the program. Everything seen to be is fine, but I find that some weird stuff in the project bin folder. I found that the program has created three folders (ZH-CH, el-GR and en-US) with the dll file in each folder (Project1.resources.dll), I have renamed each dll files name with each different name and I have moved them in the bin folder, so I have deleted three folders. I ran the program again and they have created the new same folders with the same name where it was.
I want to use the same dll files that I have renamed (like each of these: English.dll, Greek.dll and Chinese.dll) without placing them in the resources folder. Id find it so impossible to avoid the program by creating these new folders with the same dll files name without using the files that I have renamed them and placed in the project bin folder. do to find out where the information in VB.Net application that are making the program to create the folders with the same dll files name (project1.resources.dll)?
I have a directory with about 200 files in it. Is there a way to create a folder for each file with the folder name being the same as the file name minus the extension and then put the file in the folder.For example: Folder "test" would be created from file "test.doc". Then the file "test.doc" would be moved into folder "test".I have some experience with visual basic, and my thought process for this was: make a loop that brought in each file name > store as a variable > create folder with the name in the variable > remove the last four characters from the folder name > move file into the folder > clear variable > repeat.
