SHGetFileInfo Returning 4 Letters Short On Display Name?
May 23, 2010
I am using the SHGetFileInfo function to get the name of folders etc. The reason that I use it, is because it also has to get the name when copying a drive, so it returns "Local Disk (C:)" instead of "C:".This worked, up until recently, I cannot remember what I changed! Suddenly, it's always missing the first 4 letters! Like, "Local Disk (C:)" becomes "l Disk (C:)".
I'm on Windows 7, and it works just fine on Windows XP. Here's my
<DllImport("shell32.dll")> Private Function SHGetFileInfo(ByVal pszPath As String, ByVal dwFileAttributes As UInteger, ByRef psfi As SHFILEINFO, ByVal cbSizeFileInfo As UInteger, ByVal uFlags As UInteger) As IntPtr
End Function
[code]....
I also made a test project with the EXACT same code, and it did work...

I have a treeview, it lists all folders and subfolders and files within each folder. Now, I want to display each file / folders associated icon. I am using the SHGetFileInfo API, it works sort of, what I mean by sort of is, that my treeview doesn't update after each folder / file. Sometimes it keeps giving me the Recycle Bin's icon at different folders.

In my project I need to use a 190 very long strings with different number of characters (4-60).I want to mark them in a short form with the numbers 001, 002, 003 ... 190. Is there an easy way to display the full name of the string when I choose a short name ? Of course, I do not want to write 190 times "if - end if" and also I would like to avoid a complicated database. Onenew Visual Studio 2010

I'm keeping track of some things that are numbered and others that are lettered; while NumericUpDown is perfect for selecting numbered things, I need an analogue for selecting lettered things. The obvious choice would be a listbox that just contains all the letters of the alphabet. But I need to show only the appropriate range of letters, so if I want to use a listbox, I need to write a function that populates the listbox with the first n letters of the alphabet; if n > 26, it should continue with aa, ab, and so on. How do I do this?

I have the following code:
Private Sub myGrid_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles myGrid.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Divide AndAlso e.Control Then

This works (For "Ctrl"+"/"), but the problem is that this works for any key different than "-". If I specify that the Keycode is Keys.Subtract (To use "Ctrl"+"-") it is never caught!

I want to bitwise turn off the left most bit of a Short value (&H8000) and leave the other bits as they are.
Dim x = BitConverter.GetBytes(Short.MaxValue Or &H8000)
Dim z = BitConverter.ToInt16(x, 0)
Isn't there any shorter way with bitwise operators?
When I do
Dim a = Short.MaxValue Or &H8000
I get a compiler error, cuz it goes up, instead of negating it.
