I've been working on some code to rename files and have being doing so by copying them to the same location under a different name and then removing the original. When I do this for files I use the code ...
Dim file As New System.IO.FileInfo(lstFiles.SelectedItem.ToString)
Dim strNewFile As String
Dim strRename As String
Dim strMask As String = ""
[code]....
This will obviously not work as it will try to copy the folder into itself which is not allowed.

i'm trying to have 2 browse file dialog boxes, one that allows you to select a file from a folder, and the other folder should allow you to chose the location to copy the file to.
View 2 RepliesLet me say that I have 'f' as a file/folder path.
Dim f As String = C:UsersTom BluewaterMusic
Dim d As String = Path.GetDirectoryName(f)
Is it possible to locate f within its parent directory (d) as shown in the picture below? I know that you can open its parent directory like the following.
Process.Start("explorer.exe", Path.GetDirectoryName(f))
And that's not exactly what I want. In this case, the Music folder won't be selected. I could search this place for a clue. But there was no hit. It seems that the search function doesn't always work here.
I am trying to select a folder from an initial directory and store the initial directory with the selected directory in Folder1Dir. Also not sure how to dimension OpenFileDialog1.

View 2 RepliesI have been using GreaseMonkey for Firefox for about a year now and I find it wonderful, but I am really prefer using VB over JS and I would like to do some stuff that is on my computer along, not on the internet.I wrote some script for GM that read the contents of an iframe, and GM allows you to "include" which addresses the script runs on. This is really nice because it keeps the script from running where you don't want it to, AND it allows cross-domain support for communication between dom elements (in a round-about way).
I want to get away from using GM because I like some of the stuff I have already done in VB over the last 10 years and dont want to rewrite it all. So really I want to go back to my old stuff and learn how to get this functionality from VS2008.What I am specifically looking for is HOW in the world does GM listen for the creation on the window objects and run some script on it when it is finished?
Lets say I have a few webbrowser objects or other non-active xml, html or dom objects in my project. I want to retrieve info with one, send info with another, and display info with the actual webbrowser object.It sounds weird and I bet it could be used maliciously, but I mean no harm. Like I said, Ive been doing it for a year in GM already. I know .net really tries to prevent this kind of stuff cross-domain, but I figure if GM can do it, anybody can. The question is just how.
I understand how to access dom elements and all that, and I have some skill listening for events. I am just a little lost on how to combine the two in this situation. Grabbing an iframe is simple, and I realize I cant (shouldnt be able to) read it when I am acting in the parent object's domain. How do I sequester the iframe window away from its parent object once its loaded, or at the point before it loads its content so I can read it or more specifically add an event listener so I know when its finished loading? This seems super simple, my brain must just be addled.
I want to listen for the creation of the iframe from the project level, and I want to be informed of the document load from project level. I dont want to listen or do anything from the parent window object, so I really want the iframe sequestered as much as possible. Assume all iframes I will be dealing with are not of the same domain as the parent object.
I want to make a new RichTextBox contorl when a new tab page is created. I also need that control to be the child of the tab page. I created a class for the tab control. And a class for the RichTextBox control. I dont know how to start this. I have made a class for the RTB because I figured I could override the sub new procedure but you can't so i just declared it as public and set what I needed it to do. But it doesn't work.
