I have problem with Sorting ListBox in Visual Basic 2008. When I load names from some files (file's name is number_name like="156_blabla") and I need sort it by that number
It is:
1018_name1
102_name2
1026_name3
And I need it:
102_name2
1018_name1
1026_name3
i have 1 button, 1 listbox and 1 textbox.this is my code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
Dim finish As Integer = TextBox1.Text
[code]....
if i set the sorted property of listbox1 to true that code will add 0 before the inputted number so that the sorted property in listbox1 will be usefull in sorting integers.
for example i have 1,15,30,36
it will make 001,015,030,036
thats what i think am not sure because i cant edit the code so that it will work in my program.
I have a new app im making... its for a mod im making for rFactor now for ease for the testers getting updated mod files im making a download manager (i have done that bit already and it works) but what im trying to do is put a list box on the form so they can click the file/zip they need to download and click download.. now i know how to get a list of file/folders from a dir on my pc...
Dim dir As String
Me.ListBox1.Items.Clear()
Dim dirs() As String = Directory.GetDirectories("C:\")
[CODE]...
But is there a way i can do this for my webserver? i have lloked on google and cant seam to find anything.... i was going to make a auto updater and i see some source code on code project but as im still pretty new to coding i dont think im ready for it.
Im not grasping something here.I can populate folders in listbox's but dead in the water populating files in listbox's.

Imports System.IO
Imports System.IO.FileInfo

i'm having a bit of trouble. can't seem to add ONLY the file names, without path or extensions to a list box no problem there with a a textbox. also the code i have to get the file to open in a textbox is a bunch of runaround (get's the job done though) but includes a few labels, text boxes, etc. i need a simpler code if possible.

View 1 RepliesI have a few questions that are bugging me.
1. How can i get file names from a directory and put them in a ListBox? Not the full path to them?
2. Can someone explain how to make a program default to .lua openings?
3. How could i put an icon in the Notification area?
4. When a dialog is open, like options, how can i disable clicking of the main form?
basically, i'm creating a program that is saving text files based on user input.
another screen is then needing to transfer the saved information into textboxes.
to do this i want the saved .txt files' titles to shows in a listbox, and when each selection is made, the textboxes are populated with the information in the .txt files.
I'm trying to do something like this: when i press a button a dialog opens and then i choose files, the files names should go into the listbox
Private Sub pxBrowse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles pxBrowse.Click

I want to fill a listbox with file names of the specific extention. This is my code , does not work.
lstClips_ListBox.Items.Clear()
If Not FolderExists = My.Computer.FileSystem.DirectoryExists(PowerPointDir) Then
MsgBox("This Directory does not contain any PowerPoint files" & vbCr & "You need to load the files now...", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Warning - No Media Found")
[code]....
If i take away the DIR name and the Exten then it fills with ALL the file names, not what i want.
This program i am working needs to be sorted alphabetically but right now it just sorts by the length of the names in descending order. i think the problem is my if statement. [Code]
View 4 RepliesFor my programming class we must make a word guessing game with scoring for a project. We aren't required to log top scores or anything like that, but I would like to learn how to for future references. I've looked around and all I've found was ways to log in Excel and SQL servers, which I don't have the ability to do at school.

I have a routine whereby kids do some tests and are awarded scores. These scores are put in a ListView with their names. The snag arises when sorting! It's ok in single figures but at 10 and over it is no go! It is only in the first column that the scores are put. I believe the method is in collections and compares - am I right? So how can this be simply done? In all the bits of code I've managed to get hold of I get lots of words underlined in blue and have no idea what the explanations mean. Some such things are, "IComparer".

View 19 RepliesIn 2007 I created a program that reads weather data into a listview. When a user clicks on the column header it fires off the column click event handler which calls the Sort Wrapper function. The Sort wrapper will re-order items either in ascending or descending order.
I have never been able to get negative integers to sort properly. I have created a stripped down listview program with a few numbers in the grid for testing. (see attached program zip file).When you run the program, click on the column header that says "Val" and you will see right away that the numbers do not sort correctly.
am havin a problem in loading sorting items in a listbox. what i want is after i load a text file into a listbox the items are compared by the last number and sorted in descending order.
View 1 RepliesI need to sort the items in a visual basic listbox numerically, that is, I have a collection of numbers I would like to be sorted increasingly.
I tried to simply use the listbox's Sorted property, but found that it treated the numbers as if they were strings, that is, it would look at the first digit, then the second, etc. to determine the order. That meant that 13 would show before 5, for example.
I thought of dumping all the numbers into an array, soring the array, and then pushing them back to the listbox, but, honestly, I don't know how to go about the sorting. I figured the array would be useless, since the listbox already acts as a pseudo array.
I'd like to know how to sort an array that has entries with numbers after text.
I have a list of four entries:
Book 1
Book 2
Book 11
Book 12
Using Array.Sort(aBooks) returns
Book 1
Book 11
Book 12
Book 2
Is there a way to have it sort lowest to highest like 1 2 11 12 instead of 1 11 12 2?
I have a dataview object that is being populated by database fields - so I can sort on these partulular columns by specifying the actual column names without any difficulty. However, I have been asked to add a few more columns to the dataview, and these columns will be calculated columns, not directly derived from an underlying database column.The users want to be able to sort on these new columns as well - even though there is no actual column name I can use to sort.
I have not been able to see where I can sort a dataview based on the actual column integer value used when the user clicks the appropriate heading to sort.

I am trying to sort text (File name and path), by having a listbox with just file name and and a datagridview with two columns filename and path.
The listbox sorts it differently from the datagridview. Mainly this is where there is a ' ie listbox puts "you're" before "you are" where the datagridview puts "you are" before "you're".
I thought I would just sort using datagridview and then read from datagrid and add to a non sorting listbox, but this did not work although the datagridview shows sorted, when you go through and a loop, reading each row to add to listbox they end up the same order they where originally put into the datagridview befrore sorting.
What I want is a sorted list of file names only, which will be obtained from several folders and then when clicked with be able to extract the complete path and filename.
I have code with a listbox and datagridview which works ok if I remove any files with ' in them.

View 12 RepliesI have an application that receives data input from an automated set of devices. This data stream I have managed to capture & get it into a list box which I can sort based on the Device ID & the time that the response was received.There is a set time window for the devices to transmit their data into the application and during this each device is not limited to the number of responses it can send (ie :- Device 1 can send in 2 responses where Device 3 can send in 40 responses, etc).All of the responses are captured, listed & sorted within the listbox (this bit is working ).I now need to extract the last (ie:- latest) entry in the listbox for each Device ID & this is where I am stuck. I can retrieve the last item in the list but cant seem to extract the last item for each Device ID.The code that I am using for the Device response capture, etc is :-
