User Searching For Text / Getting 'Directory Does Not Exist' Error

Nov 7, 2010

I am trying to code a Search option for the user to search for any word in the KJV Bible in my program and the search should return every instance of the search word or phrase i.e. "Love".I checked the MSDN and forums and found an example that uses the FindInFiles method. I have a textbox called "Search" and a Go button. Under the click_event of the Go button, I have the following code (it returns the error "IOException was Unhandled"..."The directory name is Invalid".) [code] The entire KJV Bible is in my solution explorer folder: "KJV Bible". I don't understand the error. Is it my syntax?

IO.Directory.GetDirectories() Finds Directories That Don't Actually Exist?

Jul 28, 2011

The sub below will show all of the directories contain with a directory

Code:
Private Sub showDirectories(ByVal rootDirectory As String)
Dim rootDirectories() As String = IO.Directory.GetDirectories(rootDirectory)

[code]....

When I run this code I can use any directory as the root directory except My Documents.When I use the directory path with My Documents, as well as finding all of the folders contained in My Documents, it finds three extra: My Music, My Pictures and My Videos. Those three folders do not exist at all in My Documents. I have checked hidden files and folder and they are definately not there yet the showDirectories() sub says that they are.The exact error is: Access to the path 'C:UsersMichaelDocumentsMy Music' is denied.It's dened because the folder doesn't exist. I have checked myself using Windows Explorer!Despite this, when I type 'file:///C:/Users/Michael/Documents/' in the address bar of Google Chrome, it shows all of the files and folders in My Documents and, guess what, it shows the folders My Music, My Pictures and My Videos. But Windows Explorer doesn't show these! The strange thing is, for each of the folders, the last Date Modified was 23/01/2011 13:42:49 exactly. Each of the folders was last modified at that exact second simultaneously!I have 3 "ghost" folders "haunting" my My Documents. Is there any programs out there that perform "exorcisms" cause I am seriously freaked out!Perhaps this is the wrong place to post this. When I started writing this thread, it was about Visual Basic but now I realise it has nothing to do with programming at all.

Populate Active Directory Logged In Current User's Name Into Text Box Field?

Apr 15, 2011

Background: I have a webForm app that registers a user in the database based on the information provided with a web service, auto-generates a random password and username, and e-mails the user a link to take an application based on the marketing company selected.

Question: How do I populate the MarketerName_TextBox field with the currently logged in users name (Is it User.Identity.Name and do I add that line on aspx.vb end or the aspx end?)

Searching For Files In A Directory?

Jan 19, 2010

I'm creating an app that has check boxes that will define a search. The files all reside in one folder. I've looked at some tutorials that use io.directory.getfiles and I can get this to work. But what I think i want to use is: io.path.getfilename because I don't need the path (though I'm about ready to make an exception).

When should I use io.path.getfilename and can I use that method to do a search? I can't figure that out. I would think it would react as io.directory does but I am incorrect.....

Here is the code. Its short becasue I'm just figuring things out first:

Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim afiles() As String

[Code]....

The commented out line is what I can't get to work and I'm thinking that is what I need to work.

Prevent Directory.GetFiles() From Searching Short File Names?

Jun 9, 2012

I have a directory 'C:Test' with three files in it:

A23456789.txt
A1.txt
G 5.txt

And I run this command:

Dim FileArr = Directory.GetFiles("C:Test", "*1.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories)

All three files are returned.I understand that this is by design and .NET searches the 8.3 short file names as well.But is there any way to override this and search the actual file names only?Surely, in this day and age there must be a function to do this. Or do I have to write my own?I would like the search function to have the same behavior as the Windows Explorer for consistency.

Troubleshooting IIS7 Active Directory Group Members W/ Error Log Text File?

Jun 17, 2011

Background: I have an application that loads marketing companies into a drop down list if the currently logged in user is a member of that marketing group in active directory. The Group ACOMP_USER_BIG is compared to MarketingCompanyShortName Big in the database records via a web service. Problem: I have 3 Newly added AD Groups that won't load in production but load fine in the drop down on my local dev server. The deployment guy already tried doing an IISReset and that didnt fix the issue. All the AD groups have read access only and no write access. We need to find out more information on why the marketing company AD groups are not loading. How do I get the groups to load correctly or prove that the problem is not a programming issue and a deployment or AD issue? H*ere's the VB.NET Code behind that populates the marketing company drop down list.

My.Blogs Error - ProjectType Value Did Not Exist

Feb 8, 2006

I am trying to install the My.Blogs sample. I am running VS2005 Pro on WindowsXP Pro SP2. The template installation fails with the error message:

Installation stopped because the directory for the ProjectType value did not exist. The project type is invalid for your installation of Visual Studio.

Is My.Blogs a beta2 only thing? I am running release VS2005. Are there manual instructions for installing this via file copy?

Also: the error message suffers from poor design. Of more use would be something along the lines of "The project type 'inserttype' is invalid for your installation of Visual Studio, which I detect is: 'insert detected VS version'.

Run-time Error '504': Window Does Not Exist?

Nov 23, 2010

We have a program called MasterPack (old school dos style) which we generate quotes from and this picks up a quote.doc in a folder called Quotes in the C drive which is a mail merge document and populates all the fields. There are 3 files in this Quotes folder,quote.doc, QUOTE.txt, and quote.hedRecently one of my employees had his PC upgraded to a new unit and it came with Office 2007 (previously used 2003) and now we have this run time errorSo what happens now is we go through the steps and then it gets to the "Opening this document will run the following SQL command" and click Yes to continue, the SQL msg comes up again (that never happened before) so we click yes again. It thinks then opens the word doc and populates the fields but then the run time error window pops up and if we choose "End" the merge fields are not populated and return to the merge field names EG. <<CustName>> etc etc.

Vb 2008 Express - My.resources Won't Work - Error Saying The File Does Not Exist

Jun 19, 2011

I have been able to use my.resources perfectly, no problems at all. all of a sudden, i try to use resource (i have done EVERYTHING EXACTLY the same as the way i have been using for the last 1 and a half years) and i get an error saying the file does not exist. its there, i only need to type my.resources.s and it already selected the resource i want. it says the file doesn't exist. why? also, the resource is called settings.dat. could that be the problem, don't think it is. i even tried a picture, but it still says the file doesn't exist.

It says: Could not find file 'C:Users[username removed]DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsdiskSaverdiskSaverinDebugSystem.Byte[]'.

I worked out a way around it (i worked out how to use my.settings in stead), but i haven't worked out why my.resources won't work.
