VS 02/03 OpenFIledialog To ImageList To FileNames?

May 12, 2010

I am using VB.net 2003 to work with a bunch of images. Using OpenFileDialog I populate an ImageList of image files. I can easily scroll through the images, but I would like to get a list of names of the image files so that I can work with these image files later in the program. I've looked at several good postings in the CodeBank, but have found nothing that I can figure out how to use for what I want. My 'textbook' on vb.net 2003 is Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Visual Basic .Net 2003 in 21 days. While I view this book as excellent it does not give the info that I need in any way that I can figure out how to use,

Get Filenames Case Insensitive?

Sep 9, 2011

I am using this code to get a list of files in a folder:

Dim files() As String = (From file In New IO.DirectoryInfo(myFolder).GetFiles Where file.Extension = ".exe" Select file.Name).ToArray

This works fine, but the problem is that it selects only files with the extension of "exe" & skips files that have an "EXE" extension. Is there any way to make it case-insensitive, to make it return any combination of upper/lower case letters in the extension?

How To Add String Of Filenames To ListBox

Jan 22, 2009

I have a string of filenames separated by commas that I want to add to a listbox. This is how I'm currently doing it:
vb.net
Dim FileNameArray() As String
myFileNames = tblOpenTemplate.Rows(0).Item("filenames").ToString
FileNameArray = myFileNames.Split(",")
For i As Integer = 0 To UBound(FileNameArray)
.ListBoxFileNames.Items.Add(FileNameArray(i).ToString)
Next i

But I've been reading about using:
vb.net
Dim FileNameArray As New List(Of String)
How to populate this with string of filenames?

Copy Files From A List Of Filenames?

Apr 9, 2011

I am sure this is a simple question to the more advanced, however, to the less advanced I am having a problem. I have to come up with a quick program (that works) for my job (I am a systems admin) that will either look in a database or excel sheet (which ever is easier) and find copy files from one directory to another. I know how to move, copy and delete, however, I need it to look for the specific filename.

Create Folders Based On Filenames?

May 4, 2011

The code below creates multiple folders based on different file names and moves those files into the new folders. For example, files ABC and XYZ are moved into a newly created folder named ABC and XYZ. I want to advance the code to allow slightly different file names to go into a common folder. Example, I want file ABC_rock, ABC_soil, and ABC_water to be put into a folder named ABC still, AND file XYZ_rock, XYZ_soil, and XYZ_water to be put into a folder named XYZ. I do not want a separate folder created for ABC_rock, ABC_soil, and ABC_water.[code]...

I'm trying to figure out how to make the code from HTML url...I have in a listview with some pdf filenames..each of these pdf's have bookmarks to other pdf files.I managed to get the code to export the bookmarks and load them into the listview..but only the first listing seems to be working. when it gets to the second listing,, when it gets to the exportbookmarkstoxml function..it hits the catch from then on..i've tried several different things and none of them seem to be working..the code i have is somewhat messy because i been messin' with it,,but i'll try and tidy up as much as possible for ya.I'm thinking that something between the using statement needs to be closed or something but i can't get it to come even close..i even tried closing the reader with reader.close and then deleting the outputxml and then making the file again but that isn't working either.

Insert A New File (with A Unique Filename) Between Two Given Filenames?

Sep 1, 2010

I have a sorted array of files saved in the following format of filenames:

XXX
XXX_XX
XXX_XX_XX

I want to insert a new file (with a unique filename) between two given filenames (which could be in any of the 3 formats above).

For eg., a new file between 401 and 403 could be inserted with name 402 and a new file between 401_01 and 401_02 could be inserted with name 401_01_01. etc

The idea is to conform to the sorted list. Is there a way I could generate filenames for the files to be inserted, given the two filenames between which it needs to be inserted?

Loading Images With Different Filenames Using One Line Of Code

May 27, 2011

I am currently new to visual basic and I am using Microsoft Visual Basic 2010. I am trying to create a small game in which i want to use 8 images. These images are imported in my resources under images as _0.gif _2.gif up to _7.gif. I could write code for each of the imageboxes individually but i prefer doing it in an array as shown below. As you can see I use the variable "i" to run a for, next loop.
picbox(i).Image =
My.Resources._1
So that not every time it loads the image. _1.gif but it loads the images _0.gif through _7.gif, based on the "i" variable.

Integer
= 0 To

Looping A Collection Into Multiple New Filenames - How To Speed Up

Apr 6, 2010

i have the following snippet of

For Each tempstring In SourceDataCollection
LineToFieldsTemp = Split(tempstring, ",")
LineStringWithoutFirstEntry = "" 'reset the linestring
For i = 1 To UBound(LineToFieldsTemp)

[code]....

essentially what i'm doing is to read through each item in a collection of comma separated variable strings. the first variable in each string is appended to a master filename and becomes the NEW filename to which the entire string will be appended. this is a way to split a CSV file into multiple files using the first variable in that string.

the trouble is that this is doing a LOT of writes to potentially a LOT of files, the IO is taking forever. is there a way to buffer this data until the end, then write it to a disk? be aware, the filenames and total number of files to be created is UNKNOWN at the begining of the loop. it just creates a new file each time a unique first column ID is discovered.

Populate Listview With Filenames (including Associated Icons)

Dim subfileEntries() As String = Directory.GetFiles(FolderPath)
For Each f As String In subfileEntries
If (File.GetAttributes(f) And FileAttributes.Hidden) <> FileAttributes.Hidden And (File.GetAttributes(f) And FileAttributes.System) <> FileAttributes.System Then

[Code]....

The issue I'm running into is that 1 folder I have has 812 files in it and it takes a good 20 seconds or more to load the files with their Extracted icons.
Furthermore, I ran into one instance where a .pdf file was given a system icon (sort of like the icon a .bat file would receive with the two gears) instead of the Adobe PDF icon.

So, my questions are: 1) Is there a better way to load files so that it will be able to get the icons and display them in the Listview faster?

2) Is there a better way of getting associated icons since the VS built in option seems fallible.
