I have a treeview in my form which should be populated with all dirves, folders and files on your computer. i found a couple of examples here on vbforums and other sites on the internet and put it together in to the code listed below.
Main_Form.vb
Imports System.IO
Public Class Main_Form
I am trying to populate a TreeView control with all of the folders and files in a specific directory.I have a folder C:Temp and under this folder it has 3 more folders C:Temp1, Temp2, Temp3. Under each of these folders are files.How can I populate a treeview control recursively to do this? I have been working on it, but my code is extremely wrong and I couldnt find anything that helped by searching.
This is somewhat of a multi part question, let me start off by explaining what I'm trying to do. I have an organized folder system with data files in them. Each folder has a set structure to their naming, and can contain sub folders and files. It will be a jagged directory system. I'm trying to import their structure into a TreeView. I have the workings of a recursive system that adds all files and folders into a ViewTree, however they aren't organized by parent/child.
So I get this... -C:Temp -C:TempData -C:Tempfile1.txt -C:Tempfile2.txt -C:TempDatafile3.txt -C:TempDatafile4.txt etc........
How would I go about parsing the directory paths, and include them into a parent/child relationship... looking like this +Temp --file1.txt --file2.txt -+Data ---file3.txt ---file4.txt Also I when the line item is selected, I need to know which file is selected so I can use it's full path to call up data (using an API) based upon the it's full root path.
I'm loading a folder (path), which contains folders and files, in a treeview according the combobox-text.
When I load the app. the combobox is filled with the paths. I'm using the SelectedIndexChanged to load the treeview. Everything works.
The issue is that it also starts to load the paths the treeview also gets loaded (slow), but it should only load when I select an item in the combobox.
I tried comboboxselectedtextchanged etc, but without any luck. Besides that loading the files and folders is slow.
I need help with file enumeration. I'm trying to create a program that can list files, folders and sub folders locations in a log file for diagnostic purposes. After it searches it can open notepad and display the results. The problem I'm having is that I'm a beginner and not familiar with file enumeration.
Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?
I have used the TreeView and populated the list using the following code:
m_strStation = cboStation.SelectedItem For Each strDir As IO.DirectoryInfo In New IO.DirectoryInfo(m_strPath & m_strStation).GetDirectories() trvFolders.Nodes.Add(strDir.Name) Next
The TreeView populates and every folder is visible, however the folder names consist of:Place #. Name the problem I am having is that the number range is 1 - 16 and the order in which the folders are being displayed is 1, 10, 11, ..., 15, 16, 2, 3, ..., 8, 9 I am looking for the folders to be listed in true numerical order e.g. 1, 2, 3, ..., 14, 15, 16
This is driving me crazzyy. I need a simple way to display all of the folders and subfolders of an FTP directory in a treeview, similar to the layout of Windows Explorer. Here's the code I have:
[Code]...
The code is total crap... causes my app to hang. Pretty sure infinite recursion is the cause.
I have a treeview, it lists all folders and subfolders and files within each folder. Now, I want to display each file / folders associated icon. I am using the SHGetFileInfo API, it works sort of, what I mean by sort of is, that my treeview doesn't update after each folder / file. Sometimes it keeps giving me the Recycle Bin's icon at different folders.
I'm currently working on an application that allows users to select picture files and then categorize them into folders. Now I'm having two issues that are probably simple to fix but I only have a year of experience with vb so I just don't know how to fix them. The first and biggest issue is that once the user has selected and categorized a file, I want the program to select the next file in the folder that the first file was moved from. This way the number of clicks required is minimized. However I have no clue what I would need to do in order to accomplish this. Also, my other problem is that I want to be able to find the indexof a quotation mark but whenever I put it in the parameter it just reads it as a quote.
I wrote windows app to upload files to different FTP sites by picking the files from different folders.A log is displayed by appending text to the textbox at every step.Textbox is ReadOnly.
Issue:When app is loading a bf file to FTP and if user tries to scroll the textbox,the form is hanging and going to Not Responding.?
Actually I want add some folders and files to MSI. Through custom action i want to copy that added folders and files to some destination/target folder.
im trying to split a folder of text files into several folders of no more then 12 files a piece, we have wedding photos 1-144 which would like to have um split into folders of 1-12,13-25 etc, found something that might work but it does it by files size

I would like to use a treeview control to display related data as Folders(Level0), Projects(Level1), Drawings(Level2). So far I don't have a problem reading data from a database, creating classes to hold the data and displaying the tree from the class data. I have created (3) contect menu strips, one for each level of the tree to perform various tasks. Each menu has an ADD option to either add a folder, add a project or add a drawing.My problem is as follows...After I add the node, in the correct location, I would like to have it set in the BeginEdit mode.
Dim oNode As New TreeNode oNode = TreeView1.SelectedNode.Nodes.Add(sNextID, "New Project") oNode.ImageIndex = 1 TreeView1.Refresh()
[code]....
After this code runs, the node.Text changes back to "New Project". As you can see, I added a few debug.print statements to try to see what is going on. It really blew my mind to see that the entire tree printed in the immediate window.I have already created a work around for this, but is isn't really the way I'd like to see the program run.
I have a bunch of images loaded in as resources then i added a mediaplayer.resx file so i could keep the images separate... only now i have just discovered it doesnt? It still puts all images together, so i cant add multiple images with the same name? (needs to be the same name - its a filename)
how to add folders and images right into the project explorer.How do I then reference the images? are they just like files? so it would be app pathfolderimage.png ? WIll it add to the distibution like this?
I'm writing a little app that I can tell to delete files older than x amount of days.
You select a folder and click go and it does the job but it only does the files within that folder. What I want to do is also delete all the files in all the sub folders. [code]....
I'm new to VB.Net, i have a situation like,you have folder name "Arrange", inside this, it contains so many "txt" and "zip" files, you can rearrange it by right clicking and select "Arrange By , Last modified", i have to access this option through code and have to do this every time while i'm looping or entry of the function.
I can do this in program through forEach loop and get details like filename and creationDate, but i want to arrange it in "Arrange" Folder.
I have the following code which works without errors but I don't know how to implement another process as explained below:
Code: Private Sub Daily_Collections() 'Dim query As String Dim cmd As New SqlCommand Dim conn As SqlConnection = GetDbConnection() 'destination of the unzipped files [Code] .....
In the highlighted section, I move all the files stored in the path in label2.text to label4.text. Now, I want to change that for not moving everything but ONLY the files when prac_no as read from QryDailyAuto_Coll equals to Col_Prac_no. All other files should not be moved..
