m_ArchiveBoolean, m_HiddenBoolean, m_ReadOnlyBoolean, m_IndexedBoolean, m_CompressedBoolean are all form level booleans that's set from their appropriate Checkboxes on the form before this code runs in a BackgroundWorker.
Why is it that this code works:
Try
Dim fi As New FileInfo(element)

In this 2nd one attributes are being changed, but they're the wrong ones and I can't pinpoint it right off hand.
Edit: What the overall goal of this is that if the user has the attribute checkbox checked then the file needs to have it set, other wise the attribute (if it's present) needs to be unset.
Alright so heres the issue when this code runs nothing happens! This is all I could find on the internet on how to disable an account and then remove it from the GAL.

I'm writing a VB program that will delete the contents of several folders, but it leaves the top folder. For example, after graduation and summer school, we delete the folders that belong to the (now) prior students. Also, we retain the folders for the returning students, but we delete the contents of their folders. Every year, all students start out with empty folders. We do this practice to manage our disk space.
With a read-only file, via code, I first change the attributes of the file to normal and then delete it, via
I have written a simple VB.net application which saves information to an RFID tag. I am now trying to compress my data. The solution I have come up with involves bitwire operation.Basically I store 2 numbers per 1 byte (0-9, 10 being a period, 12 possibly being a negative/positive flag,13,14,15 unused as of yet).The code I am using basically shifts the byte containing a number left, 4 spaces, then 'OR's it against another number.Therefore 12 is now represented as 00010010. The problem i'm having is decompressing. Obviously getting the '1' back is easy, as I just shift right 4, then grab it. I need to append or remove the last 4 bits.My solution after many headaches was to reverse the bit order, shift left 4, then reverse, then tostring it.
I've added an FTP client to a batch publishing program that I wrote about a year ago. The batch program "publishes" CAD files from "Pro/E" to "eDrawings". Upon publishing, some of "eDrawings" files are automatically uploaded to an external server via the newly written FTP client.The publisher and FTP client are working great.I'd like to add functionality that automatically changes the permissions on the files I'm uploading to our unix server (RHEL5). When I do this via SSH, I simply utilize a chmod command (i.e. chmod 0755 file.htm).I'm using VB.Net's DirectCast in my FTP Client.Is it possible to change the permissions on the files I'm uploading via FTP once they're on the server as part of the file uploading process?
I have been trying desperately to update a data base file (Microsoft Access file) through a DataGridView control. The form is very simple, containing only a button and the DataGridView control. Whenever I change anything on the DataGridView control and press the Update button, I get an error saying ""No value given for one or more parameters". Below there's a picture showing both my form and the whole code , along with the error message. In case it is not possible to update a data base file through a DataGridView control.
I need to know what file attributes cant be added with another I know that Normal ontradicts all but Directory and NotIndexed. I also found out about Temporary cant be with encrypted or compressed and visa versa
i'm trying to read the details information from various audio formatted files, most of which are mp3s. specifically i'd like to be able to read the title, artist, and # for a few hundred files that need renaming and resorting, so i'm trying to start with a single file.basically, if you view the properties of any mp3, and go to the details tab, all of this information is listed. i need to grab it programatically using visual studio 2010
I have a lot of video I'm in the process of indexing and I'd like to gather information about the videos for queries and stuff. When I right-click a video and select properties, I can see a list of values under the summary tab: Audio Bit Rate, Sample Rates, Title, Comments, Duration, etc.
I have searched a lot on the web about changing file attributes in .net , it takes me a long time to get the final code but it was really good. But after all of my search I didn't know why we use "And" when we compare file attribute like this:
If (System.IO.File.GetAttributes(FilePath_txt.Text) And System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden) = System.IO.FileAttributes.Hidden Then MsgBox("File is hidden") Else MsgBox("File isn't hidden") End If
Otherwise when I want to set Multiple attributes for on file I have to use "Or" with it like this
System.IO.File.SetAttributes(FilePath_txt.Text, IO.FileAttributes.System Or IO.FileAttributes.Hidden Or IO.FileAttributes.ReadOnly)I know this isn't a big problem but , I can't write a code I don't know how it is actually works.
Lets say we have an Access file in a well known path (i.e. "C:MyFolderMyFile.mdb"). That file does not have a primary key set on the table we are interested in . Is it possible to set one of the fields as a primary key (for example the "ID" field , which is also an AutoNumber data) ? And one more thing : I'd like to change the name of a field on that table . For example , lets say there is a field called "My Field 1" (note the space characters) and we want it to be renamed as "My_Field_1" . If it's possible , I'd like both these changes to be permanent in the data base file itself , not just in the imported DataSet ,
So I have been searching around the next and keep finding solutions that all have errors due to upgrades. Basically what I want to do is load the following type of XML file when a button is pushed: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Do not edit this file --> <DATA version="1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="[URL]" xmlns="[URL]" xmlns:xsi="[URL]"> <NOTES> <NOTE NameId="Name1" Colour="13" PNotes="Test7" /> [Code] ..... But after that I want to sort out the attributes. I want all of the NameId's to go into a ListBox. After I get that problem sovled I am wanting to have the info in the PNotes attribute to be displayed in a TextBox when the connecting NameId is selected in the ListBox.
I think I have posted my question in VB6 forum. Sorry for that...I am currently working with MIDI files. Could someone show me how to get an audio file attributes such as; BitRate Attribute and Duration Attribute.I need to read those informations to be able to synchronize my Metronome with the music file tempo.
I have an application that uses a text file for its settings. This file is placed in the application folder but deployment sets its file attributes as "Read Only". I have to manually change this attribute every time I deploy the application or an upgrade. I tried (successfully) to place the text file in the "Documents and settings|All users|Application Data" folder, creating a specific folder for my application in which to place my file. The folder and file were created by the setup process but then, users who did not have admin rights still did not see the file, let alone open it.
I have gone back to placing my text file in the [Programs files]|[Manufacturer]|[Application name] folder but am saddled with manually changing the attributes. Is there a way I can do this programatically during deployment (e.g. by some post-deployment process)?
But it is giving me this error: Operator '!' cannot be applied to operand of type 'long'ES_NUMBER is of data type long.I tried changing it to int, string, etc. All doesn't work.
The following function copies a file from Source & Path to Dest & Path, normally setting file attributes to normal before copying.Yet, a user of my app has reported it to fail when copying readonly files, returning a permissions-related error. The user is however running the code as administrator, and the error happens - quite strangely - on the SetLastWriteTimeUtc line.Although the code reports that the file attributes are set to normal, windows explorer shows that they are set to read only.
I need to access a list of attributes as follows.I'm drawing a curve named "CurveName". With Curvename I need to access the curve color, the data symbol etc.I tried this:
Dim cllCurveAtt as new cllCurveAtt sub SetAtt cllCurveAtt.Add(CurveName, "Color.Red") ...... end sub
If I then want to refer to the curve color through cllCurveAtt(CurveName) I get an error because "Color.Red" is not a system color, it should be Color.Red without the quotes. But if I remove the quotes in the assignment THAT causes an error because since CurveName is a string, that color thing should also be convertable to a string. Catch 22.
[code]I need to select the one ID only which have high priority.I am using below code but it just can bring the data only matching with group and i need order by priority to just bring only ID which priority is high.[code]
The interesting thing is, that when I try to shift any number greater than int32 in .net, it yields bad results.. Every number under int32 (2147483647) yields the same results from php and c#.net or vb.net Is there a workaround for this in .net?
Did anyone else read this article under Visual Basic News? I thought it was a very bad treatment of the subject. I especially don't like articles like that when the code they post relies on Option Strict Off.
I want to perform a bitwise-AND operation in VB.NET, taking a Short (16-bit) variable and ANDing it with '0000000011111111' (thereby retaining only the least-significant byte / 8 least-significant bits).
According to MSDN The And operator can act as a bitwise operator OR a logical operator.The only way to know if it is used as One operator or another is, If it is on the right side of an assignment operation? for example x = 3 AND 5. I cannot find any other instances where the bitwise operator would be used instead of the logical operator, are there?
