VS 2008 Drag And Drop To Upload File - Find File Size
May 5, 2011
Alright here's my situation: I have a form. This is a very small form that can be moved with the mouse (formborderstyle=none). The transparencyKey is 0,0,1. The form back color is 0,0,1. There is a label on the form. I drag files to this label(its backcolor is black[0,0,0]). What I want is for the filesize to be checked. I already have the uploading to ftpcode, I just want to know if the file is above my limit I set. (250mb per file)
The below code msgs me the file path of a file I drag and drop onto the form. How can i restrict it to only allow .watever files to be dropped on the form. MSDN didn't do a good job explaining this.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Me.AllowDrop = True End Sub
Private Sub form1_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles Me.DragEnter If e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop) Then e.Effect = DragDropEffects.All End If End Sub
I'm trying to upload a file via FTP from my local computer to an FTP server, which is also on my local computer at the moment. I've got this sub I'm calling:
Public Sub UploadFTPFile(ByVal ftpservername, ByVal fullfilepath, ByVal filename, ByVal username, ByVal password)Dim clsRequest As System.Net.FtpWebRequest = _ DirectCast(System.Net.WebRequest.Create("ftp://" & ftpservername & "/" & filename), System.Net.FtpWebRequest) clsRequest.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(username, password) clsRequest.Method = System.Net.WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile
[Code]...
I'm running an FTP Server using Golder FTP Server, which is freeware. I think it's setup correctly because connecting to the FTP Server using the exact same string as above using Windows Explorer works great.
OK, so I want to read in the file as whatever someone drags and drops on the .exe file. Once I get that file to be used as the file in the program, I'm fine, I know what I'm doing, but I'm having no luck getting that part done.So far I have this that I found:
Code: Dim s As String = Command$() Console.WriteLine(s)
You will have to excuse me I am a little bit new to VB. I was wondering if anyone might be able to tell me how I can have my VB application accept a dropped file and then copy that dropped file to a location on the hard drive. Basically what I have is an application that I want when an outlook attachment is dropped on to my VB app on the main form I want it to copy that file to a location on the C: drive. I have tried googling this but all I can find is how to do it between controls and with a listbox.
Private Sub dtg1_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles dtg1.DragDrop If e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop) Then Dim Myfile() As String
You will have to excuse me but I am a little bit new to vb. Anyways I was wondering if anyone knew a way to have a vb app accept dropped files on the main form. Basically what I have is a program that needs to accept dropped files (outlook attachments to be specific) and copy that file to a specific location on the C: drive. Then I need it to store the file name and path to a variable and set a text box on the main form equal to that variable
How do i Drag n Drop text file (.txt or any hoter format ,vbs,bat etc...) to a textbox in VB.NET ? Step by step tutorial with code so i can copy/paste would be nice.
Two questions: how can I completely wipe a file from disk with vb.net? I found a code in C#, converted it to VB.net online but didn't understand a letter. I was thinking on a wiper like CCleaner has, but for a selected files only.
And, how can I manage drag-n-drop functions? Like... drag something into my form (or my app's exe) and do something with it?
I have finally got the drag and drop to work on my form, so the user can drop files on it. I have used the msdn example so i can get the whole filename (path + filename). But how do i get only the filename? (lol.zip) And maybe the path where it is?
I found this code but can't use it as its VB6 and I need VB 2008. I tried changing it but can't seem to get anywhere. Code: Private Sub List1_OLEDragDrop(Data As DataObject, Effect As Long, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single) Dim vFile As Variant If Data.GetFormat(vbCFFiles) Then For Each vFile In Data.Files List1.AddItem vFile Next vFile End If End Sub
I am once more stuck:There are 2 PictureBoxes on my Form. They get the image from the Application's StartUpPath, "1.jpg" for PictureBox1 and "2.jpg" for PictureBox2. All the dragging and dropping works fine. What I still need is a bit of code change that will allow me to rename the original files:
So we're having this problem. A user goes to upload a file, and if it's above 10MB, it just kind of times out the page, and clears, and no good error is thrown to describe what happened. Ideally, we would like to examine the file size when the user chooses the file they want to upload but I don't know if this is even possible. Our framework is built with ASP.NET, VB.NET, and Javascript (and ExtJS 3.0), and it runs in IE.
Ok, I got everything working and running, but now I need to restrict the file people send me via form to 500kb, at client side.I understood you need a 3-party plugin?Is there no way to do it via aspx?
I am working on a vb forms application in VS2008.What I am looking to do is have 3 file managers on the form.The top is the source where files can be copied to the 2 other file managers.What I have been looking for is an example of the file explorer so I can modify it.So far I have been unsuccessful in finding a good example so I am here to ask the experts.So the gist is the first file explorer will allow a user to connect to thier local hard drive.The other two file explorers would allow the user to connect to two different servers through entering the path they want to view those file trees.After that the user could click on the file they want to copy and then hit a button for example and the file would be copied from the local to the two other areas.Would it be easier to just use text boxes with a confirmation that the files are being copied?Or can a full file manager be built to drag and drop files?
In my current project I've run into a problem with dragging and dropping from my app to Windows Explorer. My app requires an "Extraction" of a virtual file (almost like a ZIP/RAR archiver would). The problem is, with all of the dragging to explorer solutions I have found online requires you to have a extracted file already on the filesystem (most likely in a temp folder) before you initiate the drag-drop. I'm trying to do is be able to extract the file AFTER the drag-drop request has already been made to the explorer.
I have FileUpload Control on my Page: <asp:FileUpload runat="server" ID="fuAttachment" CssClass="fileUploadCSS" size="76" />
I want to change size of this Control on Button's Click event though Jquery. How do i set it? because ($("#fuAttachment").size Doesn't working. and ($("#fuAttachment").width returns null
I'm working on an asp.net website written in vb. I embedded fdkeditor in my page, and it works fine. As it includes image-upload feature, which works fine as well, I need to limit the size of the file before it's been uploaded.
I wonder I couldn't find anyting satisfactory on web, it seems fckeditor's developers haven't ever thought about that.
After I loaded a new reference to my project, I can no longer run my program on another pc without installing it. I attached an image of the exception message
I have a VB .NET (VS 2008) application which allows the user to drag and drop a xls file onto the form and a DataGridView fills with the xls sheet data. The user than can apply changes to the data or add entries. Data integrity is checked during the load into the DataGridView (duplicates are removed and invalid entries are filtered out). After doing all this the user can click a button and the data is uploaded to a SQL server (2008) DB. I have a primary key set up (row number) and I have a compound key in the SQL table.
It is all working beautifully. Now here is my question:
I want to check for duplicate entries (between SQL server and DataGridView data) before the data is uploaded and commited to the table. What would be the most efficient way to that?
I am trying to figure out a way to include the listview's tag field when dragging one listview's subitems into another listview. I am hoping someone here has experience with this. My Listview drag code is below - the two listviews that I am dragging subitems into or from are LV1 and LV3. Also, this is being done in Visual Basic 2008 and the project is a windows application.
I have been using vb6 for a while, I am following a tutorial by MS to develop a basic application and a simple task cannot be completed for whatever reasons! The tutorial asks to drag the label object from the toolbox and drop in the tab control container. Then, go to the label size property and adjust the size to some different dimansion. Basic stuff, right? It won't let me do it! After I enter the new dimensions (which by the way are not large or very small), the label size (both width and height) resets back to its original dimensions! I have the vb.net sp1 installed.
I am currently working on a drag and drop project and I was wondering if there is a way to drag picturebox1 and drop it in picturebox2; that will snap to a specific location in the picturebox2?
