Sending Files/Data Directly To/From Multiple Computers Via Internet
Mar 3, 2009
I would like to develop a program (in VB2008) that can send files directly from one computer to another through the internet.
I figure there would be one program on the sending end and a separate on the receiving end. A server and client perhaps?
Anyway, I need to know how to send a file on the host machine in a simple method that is least likely to be blocked by anti-viruses and such. The fewer issues that result in a failed transfer, the better.
Also, note that my goal is to molulize this code (later) so it can be reused for multiple applications such as file sharing, gaming, etc.
I was recently working on a project involving data transfer(transferring of a text file) from my pc to another pc via the internet. I've already created a site but I don't know how to transfer the file.
(Currently using VB.NET 2010 Express) I'm trying to make a program, the main of which is file transfer. I'm trying to create a program that will keep files and folders synchronized across multiple client computers. I'm using a File system watcher to trigger events, and Using a simple System.Net.Sockets UDP client transfer (found via google) to transfer commands between it and itself on other computers.
Here's that code (this just sends from one textbox to another over the internet) Imports System.Net.Sockets Imports System.Net Imports System.Text Dim udpClient As New UdpClient(1024) Dim RemoteIpEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0) [Code] .....
By this method, I can rename, move, or delete files. I want to implement file transfer, so that whenever a new file is created, or updated, my program will automatically transfer the file to the other computers and update them there.
I am looking for some advice on how to proceed with a little project I am doing envolving sending data to an external site. So the rough situation is I have data stored in variables in a VB program (and corrisponding excel sheet working as a storage place for variables after the project closes) and I need to some how get this data to a portal site and have it entered automatically :P. I current have a button on my VB program that opens to the specific site and the users navigate to the data entry portion of the site and enter the data manually but my eventual goal is to hopefully have this all automated through a single button on the form.
There are mail sending program available in the market that can send mail directly. I am trying to create such a program in visual basic 2005 for a long time. Recently, i learned about MX Query. And my concept is like below:
I am trying to create a program that will send a URL saved in a textbox between the program which will be on different computers. So one computer will be running the program and the URL they have will be sent to the program on the other program.
Imports System.Net.Mail Public Class Mail Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim testMessage As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage Dim fromAddress As New System.Net.Mail.MailAddress("abc@example.com") [Code] .....
This is the code I tried but it aint working right, shows failure sending mail, unable to connect to remote server. I am using internet via bluetooth through my gprs enabled cellphone.
What I am trying to do is create a conosle app in vb.net 2008. I have a XML file (data_file.xml), and a template file (template.txt). The template file contains a few sentences, each one containing a placeholder which needs to be filled. I need to create multiple output files (.txt), which contains the contents of the template file, with the placeholders filled with the values of the placeholders in the XMl file.
The XML file is at the moment: <?xml version="1.0" ?> - <CATALOG> - <group> <placeholder1>Nigel</placeholder1> [Code] .....
As it stands, I can create one template file, containing the filled template contents using only the first group of placeholders. I am nearly there, just trying to finish the last piece of the jigsaw.
I have 500 odd csv files that I need to pick up and load into a table in Teradata.How do I combine this 500 files data into one file Or is there a script that will go and fetch data from each file and load it into the table.Here are more details.I have a bunch of hotels and the end of each day all the hotels dump in one file into a common folder. Like
Now I need a script to pick all these files data and load it into one file so that I can use this file to insert data into a table using a fast load script i already have.I have a script that will read this file copy it to a new location and archive it.I can use this final file to load my table.But I dont have a script to read all these files and also read the new file that comes in everyday and load it into one csv file.
I just completed building an application that reads and writes to a MS Access database located on a network drive. It works great on the computer that I created it on, but when I try to run it on another computer it fails to initialize. I'm not sure if there's a setting in the database I need to change,
I am working on a project and transferring the whole project back and forth. The thing is I am using a full file path in all my code ("c:/Users/..."), so when I transfer to the other computer the file paths break. Everything I am linking to is in the "bin" folder in my project's folder. How do I have file paths relative to the project folder?
I installed VB 2010 Express on 2 different computers using the same activation key. An XP machine and a win 7 machine. Is this is allowed? There is no FAQ and since its free I figured this was OK. Is there a Microsoft Certified person here that has an answer for this 100%?
i would like to know if it's possible to save text files into my app. that way there is no folder to contain those files. i'm thinking that i might need a separate form to hold such information, like creating a new textbox for each saved file and it's content, then loading the files from that form's textboxes.
We use a program, called CFPS (a flight planning program) and it creates different flights. I can export this file to a CRD-type. When I open it in Wordpad or something, it looks very familiar to a XML-file ("<item></item>...")...but I don't find a way to read it. What is the best way to handle this problem? It would be time saving if I can import these files directly in my program.
I got this .dbf file with 80,000+ objects. Using vb.net 2008 I am trying to export the data from the .dbf into a .mdb file. Problem is that when I try to open the mdb file in Access, it says that the file reached the maximum limit of records. I found out that .mdb files could only hold 32,700 + objects in one database.
Is there another way around the maximum number of objects such that I could fit 80,000 object in it? If not, is there a way to, instead split the data from the datagridview into several parts that can be saved into multiple .mdb files?
1.How can i deploy my project to other computers and transfer all the files that i need? I know i do publish, but do i need to change any of my files setings, or do anyting inparticular get the files to the automatically deploy.for example how MS Office suppliers all file you need to do templates and stuff.
2.How can i tell the other persons to create a folder if they havent got one? my locations to work from is here, but no one will have the rimless data sheets folder and the shapes folder.C:Program FilesRimless Data SheetsShapes.
I am having a hard time with my project. A description of it is here (Question #2) I don't know where to begin with classes. I have a functioning program, but it isn't working as designed. Changes and updates are being written directly to the text files, so the listbox doesn't display current information unless it is refreshed in some way. The instructions say that this program should commit files once a "Save accounts to File" button is clicked. Obviously, my program doesn't make use of the button. I was going through another project where changes were written to a list box, and committed to the files upon exit. However the text files were in LSV format, and the program used an array of structures instead of classes.
I'm trying to write a program that will take emails that I have saved from outlook as text files and scan it for specific data, and return those strings to a textbox (i will modify it so it outputs the exact way i need it, i just need to grab that info faster than it takes by hand). I dont know how to go about actually grabbing that specific data.

There can be only one grouping (denoted with asterisks, they are separated in the emails like that as well), or 50 and any number in between. I only need the information as shown in the text file example above (sometimes, it is blank or not there - if that's the case just skip and messagebox.show to alert me that it was skipped).
I am trying to make a turn-based board game that will be run on multiple computers. I am writing the game logic and design in VB. I searched for a little and could not find the information I was looking for. One question I have is, will I need a server if there will only be 2 players. Also, what language should I use to write the server side code.
