Copy Specific Files From Subfolders?

Oct 26, 2011

I have a program that copies files listed in an excel file and adds two columns together to rename the file when it is copied. This all works perfect. What I am having difficulty with is when the files are copied and renamed - I can't get it to find files in subfolders and copy them also. I have a text file that is created letting me know what files were not copied and the subfolder files are always on there?

Add Properties To Every Control With A Specific Name/pattern In The ID - ASP.NET (VB)

Oct 27, 2011

I have several controls on a page that contain the word "DATE" in the ID. These are specific text boxes for dates only.

Here is an example of what I need to do for each text box control with "DATE" in the ID:

Birth_Date.Text = fnLib.formatDate(Birth_Date.Text, 1)
Anniversary_Date.Text = fnLib.formatDate(Anniversary_Date.Text, 1)

Rather than do this for every single control, is there a way I could do this in some kind of For Each Loop?

.net - Copy Local Directory Contents To Another Directory

Oct 31, 2011

I have a straight-forward task I'm attempting to accomplish. I have the mechanics down, and need to hammer out the details but I'm stumbling across one small point. :)

This script is supposed to take the files in the local C:Temp directory, and copy them to a selected user's shared directory on the file server.

Protected Sub btnCopy_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnCopy.Click
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory("C:Temp", "\MAVERICKVOL1Users" & ddlName.SelectedValue & "DESKTOPRECORDINGS", True)
End Sub

This script does indeed work (and I'm aware I need to create exception handling) but it only copies what contents are on the server's directory of C:Temp rather than the local source directory.

I'm using VB.NET/ASP.NET to achieve this.

How am I able to direct my function to use the local user's directory rather than the remote server?

Select A Directory And Move Files From The Directory

Apr 8, 2011

I am going to need to create a windows form for work that we can connect to a database table, select a directory and move files from the directory that are in the table and move to another folder. The directory will have sub directories that I need to search for the file name and move. I would like to have the table hold the file name (or path) and move all files that are in the database. There might be 20 files or 1000. Depends on the client we are processing for.
