View 2 RepliesI'm writing something to download about 200 small (Around 200kb) files at a time. I pass the file urls off to a class which starts the downloads. The problem is that it'll start the download (Just creates a 0kb file) and then slowly downloads each file one by one, waiting for the next to complete despite this being a threaded class. This would be fine but after about a minute, windows removes all of the 0kb files and I'm stuck with only a few of the files being downloaded. How to get multiple files to be downloaded concurrently?

View 4 RepliesI have a process serves as an application updater.It checks it's local cache of files and compares this against list of files online.On it's first run there are no files in the local cache and it therefore downloads ~100 of these files.[code]This appears to work very well, since Explorer confirms that all files are extracted and available.However when I later run this process again, it cannot verify the existence of 6 of these files and therefore tries to download them despite the fact that they are clearly both present and up to date.The offending code is a simple File.Exists call which appears to deny the local existence of these files, and therefore tries to get them again.The system continues to work well, but over time the continual downloading of these 6 files is going to get kind of silly.

View 2 RepliesI am having trouble openning my vb.net projects in vs2005. What happens when i open one is that i get several windows downloading files from the Appdatalocal emp folder. It says "do you want to open or save this file?. the file name is several random charactors with the tmp extension. do not suggest a virus. The tmp files in question are vs 2005 generated files. they contain html data indicating a problem on the form. If i close all the forms in the tabbed code area, and rebuild the project, then all is well. If i don't build the project, then when i open a form up onto the code area, i get a new download message. Anyone ever heard of this? I suspect IE8 but cannot recall if this all started when i installed IE8 or not.

View 3 RepliesJUst started to program in VB again after a long downtime (5-6 years).During this time I have been programing in ADA , Java and have therefore forgotten the "VB-way of doing things". Anyway..I'm triyng to build a web-aplication that looks like a normal questionform. [code]When the user hits "Submit" I want to add this information to a Excel-sheet(that exist in the same map as the web-page).Also I want to to program to check if that "Type" of event is already book for that date and time.I can easily do some of this in a "normal " application but is there anything special I have to think about when it's a web-app?Im also wondering how its works when you want to copy info from my application to a excel-book. How do I do that ?

View 7 RepliesOk I know this question has been asked to death but I still have not seen a good answer. I have created an application in VS2010 using VB.NET. In my application I have an error log that is an XML file located in the Public gstLocalErrorLogLocation As String = Application.StartupPath & "ErrorLog"that gets written to in the event of an error so I can trouble shoot application easier. My application also downloads files from our FTP site and puts the files in Public gstLocalDownloadLocation As String = Application.StartupPath & "download"So I have files that get read and written to as well and created and deleted all in the Application.StartupPath which is either "c:Program Files(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File)" or "c:Program Files (x86)(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File)" depending on 32bit or 64bit Windows 7.
After creating the setup I install it on my test machine that have both Windows 7 32bit and 64bit.Everything in the application works great till I have to write to, delete or creat a file in those directories above. I know it is an access issue and the UAC. This will get installed on numerous systems so the options I have seen to change file or folder permission on the computers manually is not an option.What has to happen is after I install the application it just works like when you install it on XP. Some post have suggested that you us a user with administrator privilages or group which is all fine and dandy but the user I have used to test the application has all of that.
So what I am asking is how do you create an application with VS2010 in VB.NET that after creating a setup package and installing on Windows 7 will just work with out "Access to the path c:Program Files(Application Directory)(Some Directory)(Some File) is denied." If I have to install this on 100 Windows 7 computers it has to be a concreate no manually doing anything just install and work like when we installed on XP.

View 5 RepliesI've found a script on a microsoft site which should clear the temporary internet files folder:
Const TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES = &H20&Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES)Set objFolderItem = objFolder.SelfstrPath = objFolderItem.Path & "*.*"Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")objFSO.DeleteFile(strPath)
For some reason this script doesn't work for me. It get's the proper folder becauseI used Wscript.Echo objFolderItem.Path to print the path but the files are not deleted.
I need to download files from internet without using FTP, here's my idea:To check version of the program and also download updates.So firstly, when the user enters the splash screen there is a timer which will check updates (downloadTimer) so then downloadTimer starts to download this txt file http://localhost/version.txt and then when its downloaded (and replaced the old one that was on the computer already) and then after that, read the file. If the version.txt contains version 1.0 then pass the check and splash screen closes, main form opens, else then msgbox ("Please Wait!" & vbcrlf & "Downloading updates") and then download updates with the same way from downloading version.txtOh! and also when the file is downloaded (version.txt) save it to "c:programMyApplicationversion" downloading the file without using FTP (if there isn't any other way i could use FTP).File reading could be made with an IO.FileStream thingy.So how do i do the download part?

View 1 RepliesDeveloping an installer for an application, that runs based on parameters set in an XML file.
The initial install of the XML is in a template style (generic time for running app, generic settings), but via the Forms, I want to be able to have the user modify some of those parameters -say choosing time for the app to run- and then have the form write (Replace really) that data in the XML file.
