Relative Path Names VB2010
Apr 21, 2011I'm trying to write a little Jukebox application in VB Forms, and I need the pathnames of the sound files (inTracks"Insert Name Here") to be relative instead of absolute, so that it may work on a different computer to mine. At the moment, I am testing with the simple Soundplayer class, and the single line of code to play a song is this: My.Computer.Audio.Play("inTracks" & txtCurrentlyPlaying.Text) It works when, instead of inTracks, I put the full pathname (C:Documents And Settings etc.), but not when I try a relative path such as this.

Way To Make File Path 'relative'
Aug 17, 2009I have a form with a tabbed control on it. Each tab in the control simply loads an existing file in a reader to display to the user. I have added the files in a folder in my project. When I debug it works great. However, when I publish and move it to another computer, the program runs fine but none of the files show in the tab control tabs. The files do come with the solution when I publish.[code]I know there is a way to make the file path "relative" but I cannot figure out how and there really isn't many resources available to explain how this can be done.

Relative Path And Accessing Text Files?
May 1, 2011I have created a sub folder (named 'Data') under my project through the solution explorer. I also have created a text file (data.txt) inside the new sub folder. This text file is used to store information such as settings and connections.
I can check the file using the full path. However, I want to avoid errors such as moving the project folder to a different location. Is there anyway to check using a relative path? File.Exists("~Datadata.txt")
Or is it better to create it under Application.StartupPath?
Relative Path To Create Setup File?
Jun 10, 2011I have completed my VB project using vb 2008 express edition..I am not able to create a set up file for my project and I think it is because of the file path i have provided in my program
dbSource = "Data Source = C:Documents and SettingscfadminDesktopLead_managementLead_Management_ProjectLead_Management_ProjectLondon.mdb"
The above path is a fixed path which connects my program to the database. Now when I create a set up file and try to run on another machine it wont recognize this path . have placed the database in the same folder that of the program.

View 10 RepliesHow To Find Relative Path Of Batch File For Access
Jan 11, 2010In vb.net, when writting an application, I want to access a batch file that has been added to the project. My question is how to I find the relative path of this file to access it? I have used relative path on the ASP.NET side, but not on the application side. The properties that I am finding regarding the current directory and running directory and the likes are all for the bin directory its in. While I can use the CurrentDirectory() property and go up two parents (....) in the development environment, when I install the application, the structure is not the same. As in the output is in a single folder, not tiered.
Example. c:projectsMyAppindebugMyApp.exe is the running directory
My file I want to access is at c:projectsMyAppvalidate.bat
so "c:projectsMyApp" is what I am trying to capture.
