Copying File From Openfile Dialog Box?

Sep 10, 2010

For some reason I can copy a file from a OFD box from anywhere other than my desktop.Could it be because I'm using the shell command and the file path contains spaces?I've declared the filepath as a variable. I know in a batch file you have to enclose names with spaces in "".

CODE:
Dim filename As String = "cmd.exe"
Dim p As System.Diagnostics.Process = New Process()

OpenFile Dialog Messing With Path

Jun 8, 2010

I am using vb.net 2003 and an Access database connected via Jet 4.0 OleDb. I have identified the location of my database using a relative path with [code]My program was working fine and I began making some cosmetic changes.I thought it would be a nice touch to add a PictureBox on the first form and allow the user to select the image that he would like to see when running the program.I added a menu item to "change the picture" and on a form added an OpenFile Dialog. I added code to capture the location of the selected file and used it to identify the image to be shown.I included a table in my database to store the file name and path which is loaded when the program starts.This all worked fine. I could change from picture to picture and the image would be updated each time in the picture box and in the database. I could access the database and perform all of the functions of the program.

That is as long as the image files that I selected were located in program startup directory. If I selected an image with the openfile dialog which was located else where then I could no longer contect to the database. I receive an "unhandled exceptions error". Below is the openfle code:[code]Can anyone help me with the proper way to get set up the open file dialog so that the results do not conflict with my database connection, or re-establish the connection?[code]

Reset To Startup Path After Openfile Dialog

Jun 8, 2010

I am using vb.net 2003. In my program, the user can use an openfile dialog box to locate the address of a image and use it to change the display. The name and path of the image is saved in a database. This image is then loaded upon startup. If the image is located in the start-up directory the image change and saving to the database works great. But if the image is located some where else the image change occurs, but the path of the database has changed to the location of the image. Since the database is not located there, I get an unhandle exception error. What is the code to redirect the program to my startup path?

Jan 19, 2012

How to change the database connection by using openfiledilog in windows forms? The application I need to do, need to connect to a database, each time with different path and different name to explore the opened database.

I understand openfiledialog.filename contains the address for the clicked file, but failed to pass this information to update the Database conection with the new addrerss.

SaveAs Dialog And Extensions - Allow The User To Select A Filename To Save A File Either As A Doc File?

Jul 1, 2011

I'm using the FileSaveAs dialog control to allow the user to select a filename to save a file either as a doc file, an rtf file or a pdf file (that part was easy).However, after a bit of testing, it seems that the file extension doesn't automatically change when selecting the different file types.If the filename in the dialog is Foo.doc and I select FileType *.pdf and click "Save", my app still tries to save the file as a doc type.Virtually every other MS app automatically changes the extension to match a selected file type from the Office Suite to Paint. here's my code:

Dim dlg As New SaveFileDialog
dlg.InitialDirectory = m_sReportFolder
dlg.FileName = sProjectName & ".docx"[code]......

I've been having a slight problem with making a Window pop up. When I call it using ShowDialog(), it's supposed to be brought to the front (when in its code, Activated is called.)

Forms - Dialog Box Shows When Function Returns Nothing And Sub Doesn't Exit

Aug 5, 2010

I am having trouble with some code I am writing to handle an Excel spreadsheet. The idea is that the dialog box is displayed which invites the user to select an Excel spreadsheet. Once they have done that, it is opened and a separate function checks to see whether Sheet1 exists returning Nothing if it is not found. The intention being the try/catch block picks it up and gracefully does nothing. The problem is that when the function returns nothing, the dialog box is still displayed and the sub doesn't seem to exit. [Code]

Clear A Picturebox So The Picture In It Doesn't Show Up?

Dec 11, 2011

How do you make the image in a picturebox vanish when you change an option? I have tried a few different ways that i have seen but none have worked. I have it set so when i change an option in a listbox it will change the picture and data in other controls, however one option in the listbox has no data to fill in those controls and so gets left blank. However when i click on that option right now the images that were in the picturebox before get left behind until i click on another option that has a picture. So how do i remove the picture from the box?

Invalidating Splash Screen - Picture Box Doesn't Refresh With Image

Jun 21, 2010

I have a splash screen and want to test the loading bar. The % of loading are in 11 stages (0-100% in 10% intervals) and I have 11 different images. What i'm trying to do is set my picturebox.image = to the resource image and then wait 1 second then set picturebox.image to the next resource image. What i was doing is on the SplashScreen.Show method [Code]. What happens is that the picture box doesn't refresh with the image until the last image has been loaded from the procedure and the end of making the thread sleep completes. (this worked fine in VS2005). How can I make it load up the image, redraw the picturebox and then make the thread sleep for 1 second in VS2008.

Why Doesn't Picture Box Clear And Get Duplicate Displays At Different Positions On 2nd Click

Jun 13, 2011

When btnSetup is clicked, 7 rows with 24 colored predefined rectangles are displayed in the pbColors picture box as as intended. The controls on the first page of a tab control. I would like this display to remain intact when I change tab pages but when I return to this tab page the picture box is cleared. If I click the button, for some reason the group of colors is displayed twice, one after the other, instead of once as intended.

VS 2008 Scan A Long String And Return Any Values That Occur Between The Tags <FileName> And </FileName>?

Jul 1, 2009

Quick query...I'm trying to scan a long string and return any values that occur between the tags <FileName> and </FileName> I've got a bit of code here to use regular expressions to return the position of the occurunces of both substrings..Just wanted to find out if there is any way to scan for both substrings within one loop (as im currently doing 2, one for the first substring and one for the 2nd) so I can use something along these lines:

ringlist = Mid(XMLRESP, (startloc + 1), (endloc - 1))
MsgBox(ringlist)

to msg box the value between the substrings...either that or another approach to return the value between the 2 substrings (it can be of variable length)

Dim patternstart As String = "<FileName>"
Dim patternend As String = "</FileName>"
Dim matchesstart As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(XMLRESP, patternstart)

Remove The Filename And Extract Just The Path Of The OpenFileDialog.Filename Property?

Oct 17, 2010

How would I do that? Sample code is below that demonstrated that the file I opened contained the full path and file name.

I want to extract just the path and serialize that to the user.config file as a UserSetting value. Then next time the user opens the dialog box, it uses that saved path string to go immediately to the location previously used.

If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Properties.Settings.Default.persistConnectionType = openFileDialog1.FileName
Properties.Settings.Default.Save();

Get The FileName For The Proces.Start(FileName) Method?

May 27, 2009

I have a Listview on my form with different files. I can selet a file en open it with the proces start method. To open the file i use the OpenFileDialog method and select the filename. This work very good. With the code below.

My question is if there is a method to get the selected file without using the OpenFileDialog Box. So when i dubbelclick the selected file the proces will start with open the selected file. Something like:

proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.SelectedCell.FileName
instead of proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.OpenFileDialog1.FileName

PS) May be i can preduce the Filename using the OpenFileDialog method on the background.

Private Sub ListView1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseDoubleClick
If Me.OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

Retrieves Item Information From A SQL Express Database?

Apr 5, 2012

Two questions:

1) I have a stored procedure that retrieves item information from a SQL Express database. Should I attempt to do the rounding the stored proc or client side in the app?

2) My rounding needs to be custom. I have a figure that goes down to the 4 place meaing x.0000 if the 3rd digit is 4 or more then I would round up to the nearest cent x.00 if it is 3 and below I would round down. I have looked at the math functions in vb.net and I dont see right out the gate how to accomplish this.

So my question is should rounding be done in SQL or client side and if it is client side do any of you have pointers on how to slice and dice this?
