View 1 RepliesDo you know why this happens? If (strCampaignFolder <> "") Then 'Next line works fine when strCampaignFolder already has a value set by FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath further below.

Well on to my question that I wasnt able to find out exactly using my search. What I want to do is use opendialog to select a location to an access database and then take that location, and use it to update my connection string db location. Would it be possible to edit the path at runtime like that using an opendialog? Also, if that is possible, would it be able to save that location to the program so that I wouldnt have to be edit again. The reason why I just dont hardcore the location into the database is because there will be many different computers that the program will be installed into and the person I am making this for wants the flexibility to move the database around at will.
I am looking for a way to display the directory of file opened with OpenDialog.I can get the entire path (including file name) using:
TextBox1.Text = OpenFile.FileName
The result would be something like
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Test.txt
What I am really looking for is a way to get only the directory like:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop

View 1 RepliesI've written an app in VB2008 using a Windows Vista laptop. My problem is that when I run the app on my XP desktop, the fonts look a little blurry/ blocky. I've attached 2 screenshots (which don't really capture the issue too well unfortunately).The 'Vista' screenshot is the one I am happy with - it looks fine on screen. The 'XP' screenshot looks blocky. (If you look at the 'O' in 'OK' you can really see the difference.)

How does one go about moving a directory using VS2005? I have a treeview that is populated with the network's directory structure, but only on a much smaller scale. When the folder is selected in the treeview, the full path is displayed in a label.
This is the source folder. The destination folder will be hardcoded. The issue is that its only moving the files within the source folder and not the folder and its contents. I have tried using the Directory.Move but kept getting an odd error, "Cannot create a file when that file already exists." It doesn't exist in the destination folder...odd[code...]

Currently, in the first gridview, is a list of groups a member has access to. The second gridview is bound to a table that contains a list of every type of group and has an Add button which adds it to the first gridview and updates a table adding that group to a member.
This is what I am trying to do:
When the Add button (in the second gridview) for a row is clicked, it will be added to the first one (like it currently does), but I would also like it to disappear from the second gridview. So basically, a group should only be visible in either the first gridview or the second, not both. The problem I have is I don't want to modify the table because obviously the table contains all possible groups.
I'm making a space invaders game and have simply used pictureboxes for all the aliens and the tank etc. This is really slow during gameplay so i'm hoping gdi+ will be faster. I've been researching how to do this for hours on end with no success.
