VS 2008 - Creating Array Of Files Found In Folder?
Apr 17, 2010
I have following code somewhere in my VB.NET 2008 program to create an array of files found in a folder:
Dim objFolder As New IO.DirectoryInfo(strXMLImportPath)
Dim arrXMLFiles2Import As IO.FileInfo() = objFolder.GetFiles("*.xml")
...
UpdateFileQ(arrXMLFiles2Import)
[Code] .....
When setting "option strict" to on, I'm getting following error on the line:
lbFileQ.Items.AddRange(dirlist)
Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'AddRange' can be called with these arguments:
'Public Sub AddRange(items() As Object)': Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'System.Array' to '1-dimensional array of Object'.
'Public Sub AddRange(value As System.Windows.Forms.ListBox.ObjectCollection)': Value of type 'System.Array' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.ListBox.ObjectCollection'.
Although everything works fine with option strict set to off, I'd like to correct this problem. Also note that array "arrXMLFiles2Import" is used later on in the program, so I can't change anything on that.
Ok 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.
So I've been using some code to generate directories and such in a custom treeview, but am looking to expand upon this idea. While it's not using recursive functions, and only calls functions when expanding levels, I'm not quite sure how to put some of these together.find a way to just search through all folders on the PC. If the folder contains audio files, that folder is than added to an array (searching a folder for audio files and adding that folder to an array is done). It's just recursivly searching all folders on the PC.Here is the code I've been using for the treeview (I'm not sure if it can be adapted):
Public Function ListAllDrives() As String() Dim arDrives() As String arDrives = Directory.GetLogicalDrives()[code].....
in the current project im making i've decided to add in some tools, 1 of which is a renamer based of a renamer app that already exists (called scdtoolz), i want to build my own version of it so i can learn some new things, and build a nice GUI version of it.[code]So what i have managed to determine is that the current app scans the folders contents for the CRC32 Checksum, and renames based of that, since the 456.bin's CRC32 Checksum was 2274F80B, and in the text file 2274F80B is found here 'WWF - Rage in the Cage (T-81015)(U)#2274F80B#'So now i have determined game identification is based of the CRC32 checksums, how would i go about coding a similar ap in vb.net?first i need to make the app scan a folder, but how to return crcchecksum? and then rename if check = XXXX? If MD4 sums are easier/simpler i can use those instead, im lookin at a few hash app sources now, so i think i can see how to get the md5 but not the crc32 yet, or how to rename the 2 files and folder based of the text file.
what language would be useful to make a program that looks in a directory and saves the amount of files inside of it as a variable then have it check if the variable does not equal what it was originally when it counted then run a script. since i have a folder that adds a new file to the directory every time something is changed i want a script to run that just runs an exe.
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Setup project. I need to copy one folder and the sub folders into the program files but when I tried to copy or add the folder to "Application Folder" in File System editor, I am able to add only files and not folders.
I'm filling a FlowLayoutPanel with an array picturebox that depends of the number of files in a selected folder. The problem is that images appear stretched, and I want to keep the aspect ratio. Resizeimage is the resizing rutine and works fine. The clicked image wil be shown in a picturebox with a new sise (bigger).
Private Sub Button5_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
I need to scan either a drive are folder and search for .theme .VStyle and shellstyle.dll and there folder/subfolder names.The code scans for all .Theme files on the drive or in a folder, when it finds it it stores the folder name that file is in and also the name of the .theme .
I wrote an application that copies files from Folder(A) into Folder (B) First it checks if the files exists if yes it will copy them and it will over write the them in fodler (B) and is working great , but if I have a file in Folder(B)that is located in a subfolder the file inFolder (A) will not be copied to the new location.
belwo is the code to copy the files if they exist :[code..]
I want to store my log files in the user's Application Data folder (to avoid all the hassle with Windows 7/Vista UAC permissions). By default, though, the app creates the folder structure like thisAppData/CompanyName/AssemblyName/AssemblyVersion/I just want a single folder without the AssemblyName and AssemblyVersion. Other than removing that info from the project, is there any other to just create a single
Basically I have a known folder that is going to have some pictures in. All the pictures will be bmp for now (hoping to change it to jpeg shortly) and this directory will only contain that and nothing else.Basically I have a PictureBox on a form (pbImage) I also have a Next button and a Previous button.What I want to do is when the form is loaded read that directory and display the first image in the picturebox. Then using the Next/Previous button go through the images.I don't know how many images will be in the directory and I don't know what the names will be.
What would you do to have a vb form (on a button press) print all files in a folder using the default/user associated program, and then delete everything in the folder?
Okay so i'm trying to download all files from a folder but no Luck My code My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("mywebsite.comsetup45.exe", "C:setup45.exe")So i need to download all files from the setup folder to the User computer.
I want to list some files from a folder to a list and put a filter for specific files like *.exe or *.jpg or something else and a name filter to be able to find files like Photo01.jpg, Photo02.jpg etc
I need a script that will check files in a certain folder (lets call it folder1) against files in another folder (folder2), if there are any new files, or changed files it updates them in folder2.
In the above form the user will first enter a folder name and click the create folder button,then the folder will be created in the applications bin folder.I did the code for this:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If ComboBox1.Text = "" Then
I have a button which on click creates a folder where the user wants. But as soon as the folder is created i want to save its name to the database(Access) The database contains one column named "FolderName"
Here lies my code that i tried:
Imports System.Data Imports System.Data.OleDb Public Class Form1 Dim con As OleDbConnection
I recently started having problems when creating new schema (xsd) files inside Visual Studio 2008. When I create a new schema file, the only file that is created is the xsd file itself. Neither the designer.vb or xsc files are created, which of course makes it unusable. The problem seems to be caused by the fact that the CustomTool property in the property grid is missing. If I change the CustomTool property to MSDataSetGenerator, then it immediately runs and creates the missing files noted above. How do I reassociate the CustomTool with Schema files?
I'm using this code to delete all the downloads from the download folder.
Dim strUserDir As String = Environ("USERPROFILE") For Each foundFile As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(strUserDir & "\Downloads", FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, "*.*") My.computer.filesystem.deletefile(foundfile)
This app is just for me to use.The reason why i'm making this app is because i downlaod a lot a files and i want an easier way to delete them.
I was wondering how i would go about make my program loop threw files in a folder and if that file is .jpg it will delete I use this to see if the file exists and delete it
If System.IO.File.Exists("file.jpg") = True Then System.IO.File.Delete("file.jpg.jpg") End If
but how would i do a loop and grab every .jpb file so they can be deleted
I have searched and found many articles and code that writes a directory structure to an XML file. However, I'm not having much luck finding/altering code that gives each sub folder a different name. I'm trying to put into XML a folder full of audio files. They are music - artist - album - file. Music is the root folder and file are the audio files but every piece of code calls artist and album the same name. eg
I have a folder that contains overs 1000 files,some files are sql script and others are text doument.I want to rename all the sql files and for the text documents,I want to replace a particular text by another text but opening each document and doing replaceAll requires lot of time
