I'm writing a short app that will send an email notification, rename files and move them to a history folder after a DTS package runs and creates the files. It's a simple setup, the files will be in a folder. I'm attempting to rename them, then move them. For some reason, I keep getting System.IO.IOExceptions when I try to rename the files. Here's my code:

Brief of my project: Taking attendance using RFID reader and RFID passive tag. Main tasks:
1) Scan a Tag and Tag ID is transmitted to GUI.
2) Tag ID is matched with Student ID in database.
3) Successfully matched Student ID is displayed on GUI and LCD.
When i had experienced this problem, student ID was only display on UI but not LCD. After that, my system hang. This happened only when the data of tag scanned is taken from text file through OpenFileDialog. Manually add of data via UI just work fine.

I have built this utility to upload/download files to an FTP server with a few options which will be taken from a command line. One of the options is going to be rename file. But this would be done on the remote side.
Basically, only tmp files will not be caught has hazardous on this FTP site during upload. So the file gets uploaded as tmp and will need to be renamed to .zip and vise-versa.
I know how to do this locally as it is not hard to use the moveto function, but how would I do this assuming, the ftp stream is already opened and read/write access is properly granted?
i am currently creating a quick and easy way of renaming files in a specific folder, what i need to do is create a program that will populate a listbox with the names of all the files in a specific folder, then i need to be able to select each item in the list box and rename it with whatever i type into a textbox, but it also needs to rename the file in my selected folder with whatever is typed into the text box...
I have done the initial bit which populates the listbox with the names of the files in my folder:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo("\c:TestFolder")

So this is what I have right now, I can get it to copy But I am wanting to rename the files with the date inside of the new Directory name, It is going to be used for making a copy of outlook.pst files. But as you can see I can't put in concrete names of where to save it because I want the user to be able to choose where to save it as it will be saved on a server with folders for each individual user.

Dim Folder1
Dim Folder2
Dim FolderBrowserDialog1 As New FolderBrowserDialog

I have started reading guides and such on how to use it and all but the reason I have gotten into it was simply because I need to write a program to rename every music file in a folder to randomize it because my mp3 player plays files from the filename and from first to last.
There are a lot of things I hope to add to this program later such as writing every filename into a document along with the number associated with it and when randomized again I would like it to redo the number according to the new random number, not to mention opening a directory to work with.
For now I just need to rename all the files in the folder the program is in to randomly generated numbers.
I want my VB program to look in a folder and rename files, stripping any "#" symbols from the file names ie change "data#01.sdb" to "data01.sdb" (there can be upto 99 files in the folder numbered in the range 01 to 99)I have put the following code in my program
Sub Rename()
Dim sName

I am using help of SqlServer.Management.Smo to rename an attached MS-SQL database.
Dim db As New Database = ActiveSQLServer.Databases(OLD_NAME)
db.ExecuteNonQuery("ALTER DATABASE " & OLD_NAME & " SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE")
db.ExecuteNonQuery("ALTER DATABASE " & OLD_NAME & " MODIFY NAME = " & NEW_NAME)
The problem is that after renaming the database is set as a Single User.So what am i doing wrong?
I apologize if it is not. I am trying to write a script in Visual Studio 2008 (using a VB project) that will, upon the clicking of a button:
- A file object will be created.
-Said file object will read in a number of files from a specified file path.
-A dataset will be created and populated with fields from two columns within a database table; app_id and company_name.
-The script will read through the file names and fields recorded in the dataset, renaming the file to the app_id if the original file name contained the company_name.
The code I have so far to do this:
Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'Create the file object
Dim objFSO
The problem is that currently this code will only rename the file if the file name and company_name match exactly, ideally I'd need to include a clause to make it rename if the file name is "LIKE" or "contains" the company_name.
I have around 1300 jpeg's that need to be renamed based on the value in an excel spreadsheet.
What I need to be able to do is parse each jpeg in a directory, compare the filename to a list of names in a column in the spreadsheet and if it exists, rename it with the corresponding value from the next column and then move to the next file and so on and so on.
I have the following code for opening the spreadsheet and reading the files but am not sure how to compare the spreadsheet values to the filenames and then rename them:
Code:
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.IO.File

I have a program that will rename files that the user selects. The problem is even though when you go through the whole process, and it works successfully, it doesn't rename every file.To all people new to vb, try not to code like this as it is about the worst way to use a loop. I was in a hurry last night so i took the easy way out [code]Again, bad coding practices throughout the whole project, but the program will probably only be used by my dad so it will do.Note that the form: "Name and Ext" will not be shown when the program is all finished. I only had that visible for now so that i can check to see that everything is executing correctly.
View 1 RepliesI have to rename a bunch of folders in different directories. What I would like to do is type in a directory and rename/move files into another directory. I have 4 txt files right know, one for the old file names, one for the new file names, and 2 for the directories.
I planed on importing the txt files into 4 arrays and then using the rename function to change the directory going through a loop.
Problem is I'm very very new to VB and have no idea how to import each line of the txt file into the array.

C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile20-1111.doc
I have a text box on my form where a I would enter a string of text which will replace the '1111' to whatever the string is in the text box field.
So for example, On my app, in the text box field, I would enter 2222, then when I click on button1, it will rename file1-1111.doc to file1-2222.doc, file2-1111.doc to file2-2222.doc, etc.....
