View 1 RepliesThis error is exceptionally annoying.I've done various searches, and have been able to fix this issue.I am one of several developers on the application and the only one with the issue. I've fixed it before temporarily by adding an extension to the My Extensions panel in the project's properties (which generates a different error) and then removing that new extension.That made the error go away.
If Not My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable Then
ISConnectedToNetwork = False[code]....
Gives the error:'Computer' is not a member of 'My'.
I'm using the FileSaveAs dialog control to allow the user to select a filename to save a file either as a doc file, an rtf file or a pdf file (that part was easy).However, after a bit of testing, it seems that the file extension doesn't automatically change when selecting the different file types.If the filename in the dialog is Foo.doc and I select FileType *.pdf and click "Save", my app still tries to save the file as a doc type.Virtually every other MS app automatically changes the extension to match a selected file type from the Office Suite to Paint. here's my code:
Dim dlg As New SaveFileDialog
dlg.InitialDirectory = m_sReportFolder
dlg.FileName = sProjectName & ".docx"[code]......

View 2 RepliesI get how to do it, and i have been to [URL] before. My question is about what doing that does, is it possible to reverse it? What if you do not know where your program will be, and you are just testing it for now? Is there any way for it to "find" your program, or an easy way to edit where it is opened? For that matter, is it possible to tell if the file has been associated already, is it an issue to try and reassociate? Finally, how can you set the .ico file it uses?
View 1 RepliesI am creating a program which can store files, and I display their names in a list box, with their contents in another list box.

I'm getting an "Illegal characters in path" error. How can I fix this?
How can I write this
Path = "C:"
For Each FoundFile In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(Path, FileIO.SearchOption.SearchTopLevelOnly, "FILE*.10") _
And For Each FoundFile In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(Path, FileIO.SearchOption.SearchTopLevelOnly, "FILE*.09")
'do code
Next My goal is simply to search for multiple file extensions. I cant use FILE* as my search parameter as this returns other files e.g FILE2012.10z which i don't want.
How can I filter on multiple file extensions when using IO.DirectoryInfo.GetFiles?

View 7 RepliesInside the program I have a text box in which a user puts in the filepath to a textfile that the program then uses as a series of commands to perform tasks. This works perfectly, however what I would like to to do to make my program faster is associate the file extension .gam with the program, so when a user clicks a .gam file it opens the program and automatically sets said file's location into the text field, as opposed to using the browse button I added and browsing to said file everytime they run the program.
Through this a user could then make a shortcut to said .gam file and run it right from their desktop, as opposed to rummaging around in folders and whatnot. At the moment my method has been thus, I have 2 folders of importance I have archived with the .exe, Gambits Pro.exe, these are: Gambits, and Control, inside of the Gambits folder is the default storage location for .gam files, as when you click the browse button its default directory is that folder. I have also added a few example files in said folder for a user when they download the program.

Instead of creating a listbox to hold the names of one's favorites, I've made it so when you add a bookmark it adds it under the directory (yourusername)/bookmarks. (yourusername) is represented by login.usernametextbox.text. Now I've added a filelistbox to the form and want it to display the contents of the bookmarks folder only without the file name extensions. Just the title. Then when a user clicks on the title it navigates to that specified file by opening a new instance of a browser form. Here's what I have so far:
Private Sub Bookmarks_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
bmarks.Path = Login.UsernameTextBox.Text + "ookmarks"
End Sub[code]....

View 11 Repliesi have a scanner set up which scans .bin and .iso files and returns the crc32 checksums (then displays various info based of that etc)
Im looking into adding support for .rar and .zip files, so the end user wont have to extract there files to scan them, how ever that adds to many variable for the crc32's based of what each persons compression is etc. So what about scanning the file inside of the rar/zip file.
So would it be possible to scan a rar or zip file, and get the crc32 of the .iso/.bin located within that archive?

View 3 RepliesI had a related question running on this in a different thread,but I was told to start a new thread since the original had gotten off the original topic. I am trying to scan multiple pages from an Automatic Document Feeder Scanner and combine them to a singlemulti-page tif file. I am using two different third party libraries to do this.The first library I am using is to scan the documents. It saves the files to the local hard drive as single page tif files. This library returns the file-names as they were saved on the hard drive. This part seems to be working as advertised. The sourcefor this including a video on how to use it is at:
Dim FileNames As Collection
Dim FileArray As New List(Of String)
Dim Mergename as String

View 8 Replieswhat would be the optimum code in VB2010 that check a file to determine:
1) is it a text file, and
2) if it is a text file, does it contain any non-ASCII characters
Note that LF, CR, and EOF would be expected, and should not be flagged. I can think of 3 - 4 ways to do it, but there may be a 'best' way in terms of simplicity and speed.
