The Publish (for a Web Site) is nice and all, but wiping the entire directory is problematic as I have a folder that files can be uploaded to, and I don't want the wiped out every time I make a code change.

Using Build ---> Publish is nice, but it installs (on the client's machine) into an esoterically-named directory. As you can imagine, this is a nightmare to backup. Does anyone know how I can direct this thing to install into a directory that I choose?

This is the code I have set up to scan a directory of files:
Dim fileArray() As String
fileArray = Directory.GetFiles(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory & "help")
And it successfully gets all files in the directory, but it gets their absolute paths as well. For example, one of the entries in fileArray() is:
F:ProjectProjectinx86Debughelpook_troubleshoot.html
And I want it to just be:
book_troubleshoot.html
Is there a way to do this without parsing through all the array entries to trim off the path?
Ok, I know this has been asked many, many times but I haven't seen the correct answer yet. When the database schema changes how do you update the dataset designer to reflect those schema changes without wiping out the whole dataset and starting over?
View 1 RepliesI have an Access Database, which I connect to using the Microsoft .Jet OleDB provider in VB from Visual Studio 2008.For some reason, whenever I make any change to the code (so that the project builds again), the data in the database completely disappears. I can only assume this means it's remaking the database every time. Note that it does this every time it builds, not just when I connect to it in the code.In my project, this is the database I connect to with the connection string, but there's also another duplicate of the same database in my Debug directory that changes to match the first database every time.The problem only started when I remade the access file to move some columns around and then reconnected through VS a couple of weeks ago.

View 2 RepliesWith VB.NET, I'm able to completely unzip a file - this is easy. I'm able to manipulate the resulting folders - again, easy. However, for some reason, I cannot figure out how to zip and entire folder. I can zip specific files, but I need a function that will allow me to input a path and then it will zip that entire folder, including the subdirectories
View 1 RepliesI'm having some trouble sharing my application to other PC users. I have tried to Build my application and Publish my application into a folder, zip it, and put it on my website for people to download, but when they try to run the setup file it gives an error message saying they need to download "Mysql.Data V 6.4.4.0", which makes sense seeing how I have a resource that uses this. Do I need to use a different method to pack my application or what? I don't quite understand how I can incorporate this into the files so the end-user doesn't need to do any other downloading than my file.

A little background... I'm trying to build a spell checking form. I have this lovely library: [URL] and it seems to be working flawlessly.
The problem I have is trying to replace an entire word and only the first occurence of the word.
Example: Replace the first instance of "foo" with "bar" in the following string
"foo foo foobar" and get this "bar foo foobar"
I've been trying regular expressions with no luck. Here are the patterns I've tried compiling(these are obviously tied to variables in my program):
"(?<!foo)foo"
"(foo){1}"
I also tried the built in string.replace method with a count parameter, but I have no idea how I would make that match the entire word.
I am designing an clock-in/clock-out program as a learning exercise. So far I can type the name of an employee and add them to my timeclock database in a row called "EMPNAME". The issue I'm having now is that I need each of those employees in column of EMPNAME to appear in a combobox when I hit "GET LIST". Is there a simple way to do this using a SELECT statement for the commandtext? I've tried to google but cant find exactly what im looking for.

Is there a way I can publish *.ascx files without adding them to my project?I am trying to make my user controls in Visual Studio 2010 reusable. I have a project containing my user controls called ControlsLibrary solution directory. I copy the ascx files to the web directory upon building the project with build events.I use the command copy "$(SolutionDir)ControlLibrary*.ascx" "$(ProjectDir)controls"
This copies the *.ascx files from G:/SolutionDirectory/ControlsLibrary to C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/WebProject/controlsNow when I publish WebProject, the publish does not copy the *.ascx files from C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/WebProject/controls to my website. This is because they are not added to my project.
Is there a way I can publish *.ascx files without adding them to my project?I know there is a way to publish all files by selecting the option "All files in this project." That includes more files than I want.

vs 2010, vb.net My program uses clickonce to automatically check my website for an updated publish, and then download and install if a newer version exists. I have been publishing my updates with the database excluded because if I include it, it overwrites the user's existing database with a new empty database.
My issue is that the new version of my software needs to have additional columns added to the existing database so that the user can save additional information. For example, the previous database table allowed saving client first name and last name, but the new version needs to have a new column for "address".
Is there a way for me to add a permanent database table or add a column to the user's existing database table without overwriting their current data?

View 1 RepliesAs the title says, I have a program written in VB.net 2010. When I use the publish feature it creates a manifest and setup file that install the program nicely on another PC, but I think the security settings are somehow wrong because it sits there for ninety seconds upon launch. The program works fine on the computer that built it. There is no CPU usage while it is sitting around.
