Selection Of Multiple Folders At A Time / Scrollbar Position?
Jun 1, 2010
A couple of questions about the FolderBrowserDialog in VB .NET Express 2005...
1. How can I make it so this control allows selection of multiple folders at a time?
2. It remembers the folder I selected last time (in the same session), and highlights that folder, which is good, but that selected folder appears near the bottom of the window. Is there a way to make it so the previously selected folder appears in the middle of the window (i.e. the scroll bar is further down the window)? See screen shot attached for how it currently looks when the window opens.
So with the stock Textbox, I set the Scrollbars property to Vertical. This is great if the text in my box never changes; I can scroll up and down while the box sits still. If I'm running a background operation that logs output to the box though, the scrollbar resets itself to the top every time I append text to the box.
I know I can set the Textbox.Selection property (or use the Select method) to reposition the carat in the textbox, make note of that position in a variable, then append text, reset the carat, and use the ScrollToCarat method to reposition the scrollbar where it belongs. That's a really (ridiculously) long way around. Anybody know if there's another/better way of holding the scrollbar position, short of actually building a custom control (or using a Textbox and a separate Scrollbar)? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.
I have one gridview which was in a panel and I set panel's Scrollbars property as vertical and height 200px. Gridview has number of rows (say 1000). If i scroll down and selected a 900th row,scroll bar will move to top.I want to focus on that row after selection(ie.scroll bar will be on the same position when we selected).
How to move label caption with clicking VScrollbar.Label value changes with VSCrollbar according to the code:label1.caption=vscrllbar1.value.But I need the position of the label caption changes with changing the scrollbar either up or down?
I have a TextBox control with a lot of text which has a vertical scrollbar, and every time I hide/show the control the position of the scrollbar stays the same. I'm trying to figure out how to change the position of the scrollbar to the top of the textbox, as if it were at the beginning of the text.
I need to set a variable upon the user scrolling to the end of the text on the textbox ("Scroll to end to accept terms") type thing but I can't seem to find how to get the value.
I am working DataGridView in vb.net08.The intresting task is ,When i move the Horizontal Scrollbar in DataGridView from Left to Right ,the First two Columns should be stable and moving starts from 3rd Column.Means If i moved at end of the right side but the first two columns should be visible. When i move the scroll bar the first two columns should not be disterb.Is there any property like Scroll bar position should be starts ??I tried the " FirstDisplayedScrollingColumnIndex" property but it only starts the Scrollbar from giving column index after moving the scrollbar the first two columns are moving into left side.
How do I set my horizontal scroll bar to have the values increment between 1 and 100 and then have a label (lblFuelChosen) updated according to the value chosen on the scrollbar?
I have a label that is named lblFuelChosen and I have a horizontal scrollbar underneath it. I need to set the scrollbar to increment in values between 1 and 100, and the value to be placed in the lblFuelChosen label. How do I set the scroll bar values and how do I set the value to the label?
Very simply, I'm positioning a small ListBox over a DataGridView column when the user right-clicks and selects "Show Distinct Values". This works fine until the vertical scrollbar of the DataGridView is clicked. Once that's done the listbox pops up all the way over to the left edge of the DataGridView. As confirmation of the problem I created a small app to test with.
I have a listbox on my form which gets items added as the program progresses, when there are more items than the box can display, the vertical scrollbar appears, fine... so far so good.I would like the scrollbar default position to be at the bottom of it's column so that the last entered item is displayed but can't find the relevant command, I assume there is such a command.
I am currently working on a VB.Net program where there are two parallel multiline text boxes like this.
----- ----- | | | | | | | | ----- -----
I would like that when one text box is scrolled, the other is scrolled as well. I was wondering if there was a Scroll event that could trigger the change the position of the scroll bar of the two text boxes.
I have looking for a tutorial or class that demonstrates more than a trivial example of saving a windows position on closing. The ones I have found don't seem to work on all systems because of:
1. Multiple monitors. (and resolution between those monitors)
2. Toolbar size and position (toolbar is only on the primary monitor, well sometimes)
3. Sometimes the programs dont open on the right monitor they were closed on.
Is there an extensive class or tutorial on all the stuff a programmer needs to get right to have a window size and position persisted between executions?
I have a website that has highly granulised access and hence requires many web.config files. The problem is I would like to trim the menu so that only certain users will have access to certain folders. I have enabled trimming and setup roles in the sitemap, however when I access the page the menu is not show, as I am authorized to view the default page which is not in a subfolder. When I type the url of a page in sub folder's I have access.
How should I handle this:
A site map for each web.config file - don't know how this will work Removing the sub web.config file to only use a single one
I'm developing an application to help law enforcement retrieve and analyze logs and other files left by the use of Pidgin (a multi-protocol messenger client). Right now I'm nearly done, but I want to add the ability to search chat logs for user-defined words or phrases and I don't even know where to begin.
Chat logs are stored as html documents in a folder/sub-folder/sub-folder/sub-folder fashion, where each sub-folder can have dozens of sub-folders inside of it, and the final sub-folder can have dozens if not hundreds of chat logs. If anybody could point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful.
(Also, this is the first program I've written since about 2005, and I'm essentially teaching myself VB as I go. If you'd like to see what I've cobbled together so far, you can find the program here.)
I'm working on a project that involves using multiple scrollbars. Scrollbar1 displays the medium value and its thumb is disable, scrollbar2 displays min value and scrollbar3 displays max value. I can try to use three separate scrollbars to accomplish thetask but that doesn't look nice. Therefore,
Basically I am trying to enable the user the ability to select a folder and the folders music files populate a list box. I want two list boxes on the page, one with all the contents of the folder and then the other one for files selected from the first box. I have no clue on how to do this at all...
I have built a com object in vb with the "Make Assembly COM Visible" that I use from the strange dialect, "Clarioneese." I maintain 2 versions of our main software, so I have 2 folders, one for each version.My COM object works from one of the folders, but not the other. I copied the exposed dll into both. I used regasm on the copy in the nonworking folder, but still, my Clarioneese programs can only work it if run from one folder, and not the other.Working Folder: C:cs46exe (I didn't name this, don't blame it on me)Non working folder: C:cssqlsdkv6 (I inherited this awful folder structure)If I move an exe built by Clarion into the cs46exe folder, the dll works, but not in the v6 folder.I thought I understood how this works, but I guess not. You can't be successful at this unless you're at least 1/2 a bubble off level.
I've written a backup utility for one of our applications; this process involves coping sub directories of a specified base folder and an unknown number of folders within folders. I've got the process down to copy the files and directories pretty easily but I want to compress the folder structure to keep the space needed as small as possible.I've found a few utilities that work well for getting the files from the specified base folder but not any of the folders that exist in the specified start directory.The one utility I found required me to recursively search directories for the variably named directories and I am hoping for a simple switch that can be used that says base folder/file and sub directories.
I have been trying to create folders for database backup purposes. These folders were to be based on the current date and time as the name of the folder.[code]...
Here is my need for a windows form program. I have a program that creates .xml files with the same name but on different dates. It is broken down by Type/Date/Time/file.xml. The "file.xml" is the same name every time.
What i need is to grab all of these xml files and export them to excel by pulling certain information out of them.
coding for searching through a windows file structure to pull these files out.
There will be something like 30-40 of these files spread throughout different "Type", "Date" and "Time"
This one has been troubling me for some time , i keep coming back to it researching it for a couple of days on and off then get disheartened and give up for a while.Basically i want to copy one file in to multiple folders that have the same structure except for one distinction
I recently designed a web application using VB.Net and tried to copy a folder (containing multiple files) from one disk drive to another but unfortunately I didn't succeed.I tried using a file upload but that is only for single/multiple file selection however I want to select a complete folder instead of multiple files.
i have been assigned a project by my organization to make a portal using vb.net which would list all the files and folders kept at the server, and i need to add a functionality wherein on a single click the user should be able to download all the files present in a particular a listbox which contains various files selected for the download, iam using file.copy method for this as the files are to be copied in the intranet only but this works fine when i run it on my computer but as soon as i deploy it and in the client server architecture the files are not copied even to the server nor in the client, although no error is shown.

at I do not know the number of or the names of the folders, they can be different in different cases, I only have the root path.how I can display folder contents in VB.net and the code worked but couldn't figure out how to create the arrays and display only folders within folders starting with "ad_".
System.IO.DirectoryInfo and System.IO.FileInfo to be used for getting the folders.A literal control can be used to create javascript arrays in ASP.NET. These js arrays can then be used on the client side.
I was wondering, if there is a control for selecting multiple folders and files in an OpenFileDialog, like this (In MFC)Or if there is a way to create that kind of contro
I'm currently making a program in Visual Basic 2010 for my Course work, and I'm struggling a little as it involves a "log-in system."
The system will save the Users Information in a folder (Called UserInfo.txt) (Address, Password, Email etc..), and the folder name being the username of the User.
When an Admin wants to view or edit a User, I want the Admin to be able to select the User from a drop-down list and when selected, the information of the user loads in and is displayed in the text boxes bellow (on the same form). The Information can then be edited and Saved back to the file of that user selected with a "Save" button.
