VB Registry Editor - Enter The Value Field With A Wildcard For The Location To The New Installation
Oct 30, 2009
In my setup and deployment project, I have made all the directories I needed. The problem I have is: With the registry keys, how do I enter the value field with a wildcard for the location to the new installation. People don't always use the default location, so I need my key to dynamically set the registry to the correct place. So what do I do? [ProgramLocation] or something?

I'm a beginner. I recently developed an application in C#. Now I wanna develop its setup. I read a few articles online, followed them, found it very easy. I also changed the default location of application folder from C:Program Files to C:. My application folder is containing a few folders besides exe and dlls which I added manually.
Now here the problem starts, when I install the application and change the location say from c: to d:, my files (all files including exe and dll) are going to user's given location. But my folders (all folders in application folder) are going to c: (which is default location given while creating setup). But I want output files and that folders at same location

I tried opening a .txt file in a multiline text box but textbox.loadfile doesn't work. So then I tried opening it in a richtextbox but then it says the file type isn't supported. So basically how do I create and open .txt files and if I wanted to create multiple file types (.html, etc) then what would be the best way to do that? I am making a multitabbed text editor.

The setup is running in 32 bit mode and the installer class is made with Visual Basic installer class.
Now the problem is, how to read SQL Server 2008 64 bit registry settings in Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit machine.
E.g. installed instances and the data paths for every instances.
I need to check the SQL Server instance name and read from registry the database location path for that instance.
By default it reads the 32 bit registry so it does not found the settings at all.
Example code that can be set in visual basic installer class would we nice.

I am trying to release my program now and I have a quick (hopefully quick) question concerning serial numbers. I want to be able to store the trial serial number so if the user uninstalls and reinstalls they won't get another evaluation period free of charge. My concern is that some crafty person will simply move the database files in and out of those installs and keep going indefinately. Although I have some protections built into the database itself in case the program runs out, I just want one extra layer of protection. Is there a way to store the serial number in the registry when entered and check for that entry whenever the program is installed using Windows Installer 3.1?

I currently have a program that allows users to download files into a folder of there choice. I currently have 10 different forms all with a text box to show folder location and a browse button for user to find it, but what I want to do is create a form that will appear at the start where the end user can enter the folder location so that they don't have to enter the folder path for every download they want to do. How would I go about doing this I have a textbox, browse button and an OK button but have no idea what to do next.

Why when i run this after i press the enter button and the focus goes to txtTerminal does the text that i just Entered into txtID vanish? Its making no sence.

I'm connection to a sql server 2005 database. I have a field called MapName which contains the following name for example:
SAMWON TEXTILE CO LTD
NO NOT USE
Notice the field contains an enter character.Now in my vb code I have the following
Dim SupplierCommand As New SqlCommand("SELECT OurID FROM [Mapping] WHERE (MapName=@SupplierName) AND (OrgId=" & CustomerId & ") AND (Active=1);", con)
SupplierCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@SupplierName", f_supplier)
'con.Open()
[code]....
where the @SupplierName parameter would be:
SAMWON TEXTILE CO LTD
NO NOT USE
exactly the same as my database field.But for some reason this query fails because of the enter characters.

What I want to do is to replace lets say ##test## with Something(test)..I know that I can find ##test## by: (Though don't know whether there's a smarter way)
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(str, "##Test.*##", "Output")
So basically the problem is to get what the wildcard (.*) is, since thats really what I need to know..

I've been having problems extracting the value of a Regex in a String. I have a string with several regex expressions and I need to get the value of each expression's match. The thing is though, it's not returning the last match correctly. For example:
Regex Pattern: I play (S+.*?) and (S+.*?)
String: I play the guitar and the bass The program is returning the value of the first expression as "the guitar" but it's returning the value of the second expression as "the" instead of "the bass".

I'm trying to use the bindingsource.find method to match a datarow column with a user entered text. I know that using BindingSource1.find("columnName", searchString) will work when the user enters the exact string. What I would like to know is how to find a row that is close to the string using a wildcard search... a good example I guess is:dim searchString as string = textbox1.text 'lets say the user enter "se"dim index as integer = myBindingSource.find("columnName", searchString) 'I would like to find the firs record that starts with "se"I can achieve the idea using the bindingsource.filter method but this will interfere with other parts of my application if the bindingsource is changed.

How can I use wildcard/s for the attachment filename. Part of the filename changes but the characters 8 and 9 (counting from the left to right) always present and always either LK or KL. Currently files are PDF type, thus with extension PDF but might be different in the future (this is not important now).
Here it is: Dim oAttch As Net.Mail.Attachment = New Net.Mail.Attachment("C: est102309LKO.pdf")

searching a directory for a file, and if it doesn't find that file to search again for a similar file and notify the user that a image does exist but for a different revision.
Sub GVC_Photo()
Dim photostr As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr2 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr3 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
Dim photostr4 As String = "R:itemphotosp_"
[code]....
This code snippet is used in a program called SyteLine, so some of it may be unfamiliar, but its .net based. The item and revision are fed through from the form, so when the string gets built it might look something like this "R:itemphotosp_22554_B_01.jpg" with "22554" being the item, "B" being the revision, and "01" being the image number. So what I want is if it cannot find a file name with revision B in it, to search for a filename with any revision it it "R:itemphotosp_22554_*_01.jpg", if it finds one to display a message that a non-current photo exists, and if it can't find that, to display a message saying there is no photo.

New user here. I've been searching high and low for what I would think is a relatively simple task. I want to rename a file with a wildcard (i.e. FileNamexxx.xls) within a Visual Basic Script. I'll be running this script within Visual Studio.
I will only have 1 file in this folder, so I do not believe a loop is necessary.
Actual FileName is "CellModelHistory1251234.xls"
