Rename And Move File To New Folder
Dec 3, 2011
What piece of code could determine if the new path does already exist, and if not , create a same? For instance on my form I have two TextBoxes i.e. TxtBx1 and TxtBx2.
TxtBx1 presents the complete path and name of an existing file like:
C:UsersFarazDocumentsOfficeTest1ABC.xlsx
TxtBx2 presents a new path and new name for the same like:
C:UsersFarazDocumentsHomeTest2XYZ.xlsx
If there already exists a path C:UsersFarazDocumentsHomeTest2 I want the Button BtnGo to simply move the file to the said folder and be renamed from ABC.xlsx to XYZ.xlsx. However, if such a new path doesn't exist at all, i.e. even there doesn't exist a folder like
C:UsersFarazDocumentsHome how to create the same via SHELL and MD and also a subfolder of
Test2 within the same and then move the file to the newly created path and finally being renamed?

Im using Visual Studio 2008 This is my first program I renamed the program for the forum. If I remove the paths and execute my .exe from the AppDatalocal folder where the settings.ini file is it works fine, but I don't want have to run the program from there. I tried using %Username% for relative paths, but the computer can't follow the path. Do i have to write code to get the current username or how do programmers do this? Here's part of the program

I thought this would be simple but clearly, I'm not understanding something right. I created a program where one selects a file. Then they type in the Directory the 'Test' folder is located in (C , D , E , ect) and then they click on another button that then transfers said file to the 'TEST' folder.[code]....

Is there a way to detect if a file is being deleted,
1) Using the Del key
2) Using the Shift+Del keys
3) Using the above keys from a remote computer through a shared folder
And instead of deleting move it to another folder in the same computer. Basically when a user tries to delete a file or folder it should move it to a specified folder instead of deleting it.

I have a script task inside a for each file loop which moves files from one directory to another. It uses the file.move command which works fine unless the file I am moving already exists in the destination directory. I would like to add the datetime string to the filename before moving it or alternatively an incremental variable to make the filename unique before its moved.

I'm trying to move a lot of pictures from FOLDER A to another, FOLDER B. However, some of the pictures already exists in the FOLDER B. This stops my program saying it cannot copy the pictures over because they already exist. I'm trying to make it so any pictures from FOLDER A will copy over the pictures in FOLDER B if they are similar in name. Like... Folder A's pictures will just replaced the Folder B pictures if they have the same name. I was told to use the System.IO.File.Copy tool. Here is my code.

in the current project im making i've decided to add in some tools, 1 of which is a renamer based of a renamer app that already exists (called scdtoolz), i want to build my own version of it so i can learn some new things, and build a nice GUI version of it.[code]So what i have managed to determine is that the current app scans the folders contents for the CRC32 Checksum, and renames based of that, since the 456.bin's CRC32 Checksum was 2274F80B, and in the text file 2274F80B is found here 'WWF - Rage in the Cage (T-81015)(U)#2274F80B#'So now i have determined game identification is based of the CRC32 checksums, how would i go about coding a similar ap in vb.net?first i need to make the app scan a folder, but how to return crcchecksum? and then rename if check = XXXX? If MD4 sums are easier/simpler i can use those instead, im lookin at a few hash app sources now, so i think i can see how to get the md5 but not the crc32 yet, or how to rename the 2 files and folder based of the text file.

I have a shell extension made in .NET that creates folders (think of it as a context menu New -> New Folder option clone) and uses a InputBox to input the name of the folder from the user. Instead I want to send the rename command on the folder to the already open Windows Explorer window. It should be just like how Explorer lets us name a new folder:
On searching, I found this : Windows Explorer Shell Extension: create file and enter "rename" mode. It says to use the IShellView::SelectItem function with the SVSI_EDIT flag. How do I do that with .NET?

When setting up the Ajax Control Toolkit's AutoComplete control, it creates an utoComplete.asmx and a AutoComplete.vb file. The AutoComplete.vb file automatically ends up in the App_Code folder. I was hoping to move all of these styled-classes into a separate namespace, but the compiler simply does not dig it. Is this possible, or must it be within the presentation layer to access the "Web" related namespaces?
