Simulate A Double Click To Open A File?
Jan 27, 2009
I am creating a web page which converts binary data into a temporary file.The *.tmp file then gets converted to a *.tiff file.This all works fine.
The next step I would like to take, is for the web page to programatically go to the local *.tiff file, and simulate a double click in Windows Explorer.
This should then either Open the file, or ask what program should be used (as per all non recognized file types in windows).

so I created a file type in the Publishing options window. I save the file and it has the icon. When I double click to open, my application opens with no text. (The program is like notepad) When I open it manually (File -> Open) I see text in the text editor. How can I get the file to open when I double click?

I have a situation where I am handling both single & double mouse click events on a form. In both cases something has to be loaded, however when a double click occurs, I do not wish to execute the code attached to the single click event.Is there a way to intercept the mouse click's and check if double or single and then execute the right event appropriately?

I've created a datagrid and made it read only, I want to double click it and it will open a new form with all the data so I can edit it and press save.
I have a form called New client where you add the name address etc and press save.
I want the fields already on the add client form to fill in the data from the row you double click on the grid.

Ok i am making a game (based on windows95)....i have it going good so far.I have it so you can open notepad (this is in a panel and its not the real system notepad)You can click save document and it saves the text it in a hidden textbox with a random filename (defined by user) and it saves it in a listveiw (windows explorer type thing).The idea is i want it to be so that if you double click the listveiw item it will open the textfile (text stored in a hidden textbox) Heres my code which is attempting to do this but i just can't think how to link them.
Private Sub btnsaveassave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnsaveassave.Click
Dim savedfile As New TextBox
mycomputerfiles.Items.Add(txtfilename.Text & ".txt")[code].....

I'm coming to end of a program I've been writing for quite some time now. In this program, I use text files to store/retrieve all the data I need for the program. I've save each file with text characters, with a file extension of .fad.
The problem is, how do I make it so when someone double clicks on one of my .fad files, it launches my program and opens that file?
how can I get my own icon to appear on my .fad files?

My Program is selected as the default program in the registry for any RTF file that is double-clicked. I want my program to load the RTF file when I double-click it in windows explorer, however, I also have my program set up so that it always opens the last file I had open, which is stored in an INI file. I do not know how to detect that a file have been double-clicked in Windows Explorer within my program as it loads (FormMain_Load), and then load that file instead of the last file open.

In Windows Explorer, when you open a ZIP file and double-click a file, say a JPEG file (.jpg), Windows extracts the JPEG file to a temporary folder, and passes the temporary file name to the associated program as the one and only argument, such as "C:UsersjpriceAppDataLocalTempTemp1_<>.zip<>.jpg"
I noticed that some applications, like the Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 7 know what ZIP file the temporary file came from. You can click next and previous and get the next/previous files from the ZIP file (as you do, they are also extracted to temporary files). I've googled and prowled through system.io.packaging, but I can't figure out how to get the path of the original ZIP file (the file name is part of the temporary file path). It's not done with the shell-->open command, Windows Photo Viewer only gets the temporary file name as far as I can tell.
The Photo Viewer command line is
%SystemRoot%System32
undll32.exe "%ProgramFiles%Windows Photo ViewerPhotoViewer.dll", ImageView_Fullscreen %1. I did use ProcessMon to watch Photo Viewer and saw it read the .zip file (probably using zipfldr.dll) but could not discover how it knew where the original zip file was.

I have a single instance app that is working fine except for this strange (to me) issue.
The user could double click on FileA and my app opens and displays the file contents (the path of FileA has been passed as a parameter) No problem there. The problem is that if the user then double clicks on FileB and I read the parameter it still contains the path to FileA. What trick am i missing here?
(If i add a debug line that forces the code to be FileB's path the the app works correctly in terms of opening a new tab, reading the contents etc.) (vb.net 2010)

I have a series of buttons that I am handling with a single method (Button_Click). I use the sender.tag to determine which button was clicked. I want to simulate clicking btn3 with a Timer. So when Timer1 triggers, I want it to trigger the Button_click method, but indicate that btn9 was clicked.
I have:
Private Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn1.Click, btn2.Click, btn3.Click
Dim i As Integer = CInt(sender.tag)
In the Timer_Tick method I would Call the Button_Click method, but what do I used for the sender and eventargs?
