I have this code for the Drag&Drop feature of listbox1:[code]In the "Private Sub ListBox1_DragDrop" I want to add the fileextension check to see it the file will or not be added to the list. How do I do it?
I tried this code but I don't know how to complete it. the code is to check if there is a file with extension ".mdb" in folder Debug in my project, and if there is a file it will get the name of it.
Is there a way to find out if a file exists if you only have the file extension? I tried this but it doesn't seem to work. If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(drive.Name & "*.cde") Then
I am searching through files and only want to include files with certain extensions. Right now I have what is below but it would be stupid to do it that way for 3 or more file types and it isn't completely case insensitive.
If ext = ".jpg" Or ext = ".JPG" Then
I want to check for .jpg .gif .png all case insensitive.
I am using Vb.NET2008 to develop Window Application. When the user enter the File Name on the textbox, I need to check the file name to ensure that it has the File Extension. (Eg. Sales.XLS) I have not done the coding before and stuggling with it.
I found out how to create file extensions on my PC and I want to open my program with the file extension, but how would I be able to load the text in the file extension into a textbox on my form if that's what the extension is for? And another question, how could I make a file extension that would act like a folder? Like store images and sound files and things like that.
I have found that to get part of my program to do what i need it to do without causing proplems is to remove the file extention, do what needs to be done with the files and then put the file extention back.
I am having problems downloading files possibly due to the file extensions not matching the actual file. What is happening is the File.Exists check is returning false for these even though the named file does exist. Is anybody aware of anything in IIS or even IE which would cause this? I have seen this with .txt, .exe. and .avi files. The .avi works of as long as the file really is an avi and not renamed from something else.
i just made a small notepad type program. The function for opening and saving are working perfectly but i want it so that i could save the ".txt" as my own filetype lets say ".tox" or something.
I don't really know how to use compression in VB.net, so I was wondering if someone could explain it to me. I'm also wondering if it is possible to create a compressed file with your own extension.
How would i go about checking a file extention to see if it is either '.exe' or '.ex_'
What i need to be able to do is that if the extention of the file is '.ex_' then that file is copied to another folder, or if the file extention is '.exe' then it is passed onto another routine that will compress is.
Baring in mind that there could be a number of files in that folder.
I already have a routine that will compress the files, just need the above.
I am looking for an advise on how to find out the extension of the file only knowing the name and the location of it. I tried getextension method and some other but they don't seem to do anything to me.
E.G.: Dim FileFullPath As String = "\SERVERPublicCRM_LibraryOrderMGMLetters" & datagridLetters.CurrentRow.Cells.Item(0).Value.ToString() & ".pdf"
vb <System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Extension()> _ Public Sub Invert(ByVal b As Bitmap)
is there any way of hiding this from inteli-sense if it is not used as an extension?so that pressing ctl+space only triggers it if you go "bitmap.Inve.." rather than prompting on "Inve..."?
I'm using extension methods based on an array and I would like to know if there is an easy way to check that array got a specify size instead of me doing a copy paste of
if array.count != 1000 throw new exception "size of the array does not match" in about ~50 extensions
this a small sample of extensions that I use, I got WAY more
<Extension()> Public Function IsWhite(ByVal board() As bitPiece, ByVal pos As Integer) As Boolean Return (board(pos) And bitPiece.White) = bitPiece.White End Function
I am using VB 08 running an openfiledialogue wanting to get the result of the GDS file (*.gds) to be the default extension at the drop down menu instead of All file when the openfiledialogue box opens.
but the results i get in the open file dialogue box remains as all files being in the drop down menu as the default file extension. How to i set it to ".gds" format?
I have File Like "Sample.bak" and when I compress it to be "Sample.zip" I lose the file extension inside the zip file I meann when I open the compressed file I find "Sample" without any extension.
I use this code :
Dim name As String = Path.GetFileName(filePath).Replace(".Bak", "") Dim source() As Byte = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filePath) Dim compressed() As Byte = ConvertToByteArray(source) System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(destination & name & ".Bak" & ".zip", compressed)
Or using this code :
Public Sub cmdCompressFile(ByVal FileName As String)
'Stream object that reads file contents Dim streamObj As Stream = New StreamReader(FileName).BaseStream
[CODE]...
I need to compress the file without loosing file extension inside compressed file.
I need to be able to find files in a folder where the extension can be either caps or small letters. Here's my code:
Code: Public Function GetIcon(ByVal name As String) As Icon Dim execAssembly As Reflection.Assembly = Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly Dim stream As System.IO.Stream =
[Code]....
How can I modify that function to return the file regardless of whether the extension is in caps or small letters?
This is in VS2005 for a .NET 2.0 Compact Framework project
Recursive File Copy based on file extension. I have a single root folder that contains numerous folders that contain a few files that I want to extract. For this example, lets state that I want to copy all �txt� extensions and put them into a repository folder.
Why would I use an extension method instead of just creating non-extension sub or function?
For ex, I could have an extension function called IsNullOrEmptyOrAllSpaces on String, which does a check as its name implies. Or I can write a stand alone function that does the same thing. Other than having the extension show up in Intellisense, is there any advantage? Is a call to the extension quicker/more efficient than a call to a regular function?
Using the below code I want to set the '*' to any file. This folder (C:ewtemp) will only have one TIF file in it at a time so I want it to use that file as TextBox1, but that filename is dynamic, but always with extension .TIF.
I want to create my own extension without changing my registry file. I have a VB.NET project and I firstly want to create my own extension like ".abc" afterwards if there is any file like xxxxxx.abc when a person try to open this file I want windows to startup my project and open that file.
i want to create a new file extension like, .newprog file.and i want it to be able to get back by opendialogbox. i want it to store the control of my form that will be at different place on the form.
i want to check if a file exists in the Application.StartupPath. I tried My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists but that checks the whole computer doesn't it. ? How do i check if a file exists in a directory?
How would i check to see if a file exits on a website before attempting to download it?Also in my code ive enclosed the instructions in Do loop and if the file doesnt exist i want to skip the code and loop to the next file.
