Populating ListView With Files And Folders In A Given Directory?
Jan 31, 2012
I want to show a list of files and folders (names + their icons) inside a given directory with a ListView control or equivalent. I understand that ExtractAssociatedIcon gives you the icon of a file, not a folder. So what are my options for this objective? I don't really have a problem if I have to separate folders and files like the following.
Dim fi As New IO.DirectoryInfo(f) 'f is the path of a given directory
For Each subfolder As IO.DirectoryInfo In fi.GetDirectories()
ImageList1.Images.Add(My.Resources.FolderIcon)
[Code]....

The idea is to click Button1, for it to open a browser window, then select 1 or more files from a directory and add them to ListBox1.Currently I'm using a very basic method that adds all files from a directory to my ListBox
Dim files() As String = IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:Users")
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
For Each file As String In files

I am using the FilesystemWatcher to look for files in a Directory, it does not matter what the file is. After a file appears it starts my ftp process and I end up with a bunch of 0 byte files because it processed before all the files arrived.
I would like to WaitFor... (Files_Created) to finish but dont seem to have the right syntax to get this to work properly. I have working code up until it loops. As you can see I have tried various processes to get it to work... mostly commented out. I also have imported just about everything trying to get this to work. Please ask away.
Imports System Imports System.IO.File Imports System.IO Imports System.Threading Imports System.Collections Imports System.Collections.Specialized Imports System.Diagnostics Public Class FileSystemMonitor Public Shared Sub Main() Dim fsw As New FileSystemWatcher() ' create an object of FileSystemWatcher ' set properties of FileSystemWatcher object

I am currently using a recursive function to retrieve all the files/folders within a directory.Sometimes this takes a while. I am wondering if I am able to calculate the total number of files/folders within a directory before retrieving the filenames so that I can implement a progress bar?

I have a function that returns a value of the numbers of files, folders and subfolders in a directory. But i can't seem to handle the "UnauthorizedAccessException" which i get from certain read only files or folders. I tried to use both the DirectoryInfo.GetDirectories() and DirectoryInfo.GetFiles() methods. as you can see from the code below. This exception is thrown in start of the for each loop, so i'm not able to handel it with a try, Catch Ex As UnauthorizedAccessException to cintinue the loop.

I have seen lots of examples with a treeview to list folders then display the folders context in a listview.
But what id like is a checked treeview, that not only displays the folder list, but the actually folder contents as well.

I need help with file enumeration. I'm trying to create a program that can list files, folders and sub folders locations in a log file for diagnostic purposes. 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.

Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?

I thought I would have a go at creating an inventory system - as I can learn VB.net on the way and its useful to use. The first hurdle I have come across is I would like to link a combo box with active directory to populate the name of who is requesting the stock item - can anyone point me in the right direction of how this is done please?

I'm currently working on an application that allows users to select picture files and then categorize them into folders. Now I'm having two issues that are probably simple to fix but I only have a year of experience with vb so I just don't know how to fix them. The first and biggest issue is that once the user has selected and categorized a file, I want the program to select the next file in the folder that the first file was moved from. This way the number of clicks required is minimized. However I have no clue what I would need to do in order to accomplish this. Also, my other problem is that I want to be able to find the indexof a quotation mark but whenever I put it in the parameter it just reads it as a quote.

I am currently using the Directory.GetFiles("Path of folder", "Specific Data") to search a folder for specific files and then do something with those files - this works perfectly. However i would like to search all sub folders within the top level folder also.I have seen ways to return what directories exist within the top level - which i could then use to search but was wondering if there is an easier way.

I'm trying to make a program that will list all the sub-directories in a directory then list all the files in a sub directory in another listbox when you select a directory from the first listbox, what I am stuck on is listing the folders.
Dim folderInfo As New IO.DirectoryInfo("c:windows")
Dim arrFilesInFolder() As IO.FileInfo
Dim fileInFolder As IO.FileInfo
[Code]....
This code lists all the files in a directory but not the folders, I want it to do the complete opposite.

Can someone help me with this code? I just need to make it so there is no limitation on how much data is loaded in the columns or rows, it populates very nicely for smaller comma delimited files , but if I try to load something that goes for example over to AV column, it errors out.I don't care about VIEWING this data, I am just trying to get it into a LISTVIEW so I can access the data for other methods in my code.Index was outside the bounds of the array.

I have started the familiarize myself with WPF and have gotten stuck with the ListView I've read a lot of documentation about binding and I can't seem to find how to populate a ListView programmatically. It seems like a lot of work to create the binding and classes, etc, just to fill a ListView.
1. If you want to populate a ListView with data that a user has inputted, is the correct way in WPF to populate the ListView with binded data?
2. How do you add items and subitems to a ListView in code? (There doesn't seem to be a subitems in WPF.)

I'm fiddling around with a small program that can delete a directory, including its sub-folders and files.This is the code I'm using: (Note-I found it on the net, I didn't code it myself)
Private Sub filedelete(ByVal filename As String)
Dim filesystemobject As Object
filesystemobject = CreateObject("Scripting.filesystemobject")[code]..........
So on click of button '2' the folders are cleaned out, and on click of button '3' they are deleted - it works great.Now the problem is, if any of the folders in the directory 'test' are not accessible to the current user, the program throws the exception 'Access to the path is denied.Is it possible to skip folders that are not accessible, and just ignore them, and delete the ones that are accessible?What code needs to be added to enable this ability?
