Renaming Group Of Files Using Loop In Visual Basic?
Jun 25, 2012
I currently have these group of files I want to rename:
C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile1-1111.doc
C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile2-1111.doc
C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile3-1111.doc
C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile20-1111.doc
I have a text box on my form where a I would enter a string of text which will replace the '1111' to whatever the string is in the text box field.
So for example, On my app, in the text box field, I would enter 2222, then when I click on button1, it will rename file1-1111.doc to file1-2222.doc, file2-1111.doc to file2-2222.doc, etc.....
This is my VB code I currently have:

how to sort the group of files in the directory using Hashtable by values?
i'll have more than 500 no of files in the below format:
prod_orders_XXX_<TimeStamp>.dat
XXX = symbol of the product and the length may varies.
<TimeStamp> = date and time
Multiple files for the same XXX are possible with different time stamps.
Here are some examples:
prod_orders_abc_20122001083000.dat
prod_orders_abc_20122001083111.dat
prod_orders_xyz_20122001093157.dat
[Code]......
I have posted a similar question before but this time i need this specificly using Hashtable.

I have looked around the forums and found a few discussions on this, but none that address my issue.
I want to rename a folder of jpgs with their datetime original from the exif meta file. The line: My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile(foundImage, NewPictureName) does have the all the right info: the original file folder and name; and the new picture name - it just doesn't actually do the task.
Here's the sub:
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
lblSelPath.Text = FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath
For Each foundImage As String In _

I've set up a basic loop to delete all the files in a particular folder. I've set the loop in a Try block so it doesn't crash the application when it gets to a file it can't delete. I'd like for the app to just pass over these type of files. At the moment, my loop stops completely when it gets to that exception.

I need a small app that randomly shuffles a set of preloaded numbers. The shuffling will be visible on the screen and goes on continuously (looping) until a key is pressed and as soon as that happens it will show the winning number.Am using visual basics 2008 to develop the application but my problem is when i start the app and hit a key it will loop through my numbers on the text file and it will also display the event but if i hit a key to stop it will not stop..I was workin on the app but my problem is how to stop the loop and resume on the with a keypress. below is the app codes.
Dim Running As Boolean = False
Sub ReadAccounts()
Dim arr As New ArrayList
arr.Add("1366-665885-666-22650")[code]....

I wrote a programme about 12 years ago in visual basic 3.Since then I have moved interstate and changed jobs quite a few time and lost the original Visual Basic 3 discs.Visual Basic 3 saved the files in a binary format that has not been used in any other version of Visual Basic. So now I cannot read or modify the files.

For instance, I would like to read the picture's dimensions (width, height) and modify them to fit space available on a page. I have many pictures, so don't want to do this by hand.
If this involves using components or objects, where to find useful documentation about properties, methods, or whatever I need in order to write a program.
I'm using Vis Basic 2010 Express in Vista Ultimate.

I am trying to locate the runtime install for Visual Basic 6 Runtime Extended Files. I am not a developer just the guy truing to get it onto the systems for them. My question is simple anI hope the answer is the same. We are converting our systemsfrom Windows XP to Windows 7 and we need the extended runtime modules so a number of our applications will actually work.
I cannot locate the install for this in the Visual Studio download area. Is the re-distributable part of the studio install (so it should be on one of the developers systems) or do I download it from somewhere else.

I have an issue with creating a VB program. I reference files on my computer that are displayed in a webbrowser in the program. The issue comes when I install the program on another computer because of the file path. The program is looking for the files on the computer I created the program on because of the file path, instead of looking for the files within the program resource files.
For example, I created the program on Computer A and referenced File "C:ComputerAMy DocumentsHelp.txt"
Once installed on Computer B, the program doesnt display the image because it's looking for "Computer A" in the file path.How do I correct my programming so that the files are universial and can be found on any computer the program is installed on?

My students did a tutorial in HTML Help Workshop to add Help files to a VB 2008 Windows application. They zipped the files and uploaded them to our class web site.
I downloaded them at home, unzipped, and tried to check, but every one shows Table of Contents or Index and cannot find the .htm documents for the topic. The same thing happened in my office. However, these projects work correctly in our classroom
lab and do display the .htm files.

I am trying to delete rows of an .sdf file using the Database Explorer utility of Visual Basic. When doing so, I get the following error message:No rows were deleted.
A problem occurred attempting to delete row 1.
Error Source: Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataTools. Error Message: The row value(s) updated or deleted either do not make the row unique or they alter multiple rows(48 rows). Correct the errors and attempt to delete the row again or press ESC to cancel the change(s). It is correct that the data in the rows are not unique (and not supposed to be; there is no "error" to correct), but why should this prevent deleting them?
