VS 2008 Extracting Icons From Files In Directory
Jul 24, 2009
I was able to extract icons from the current running processes and then put them into a ListView.
I am trying to do the same with files in a specified directory:
vb.net
[Code].....
When I use this code, I get an error stating: "'MainModule' is not a member of 'System.IO.FileInfo'." If I remove the very first line of the sub that specifies the directory, that error obviously goes away.
So, is there another method of extracting the icon? Or must I declare the directory in another way?
I'm getting ready to check MSDN to see if I can something withing the FileInfo Class,

I'm making a Cleaner for my PC that could delete all files with a specific name.So I have all the names in a .txt file, like:
A
B
C
D
Now I need somekind of function that would search in a directory ( The user gives the dir. in a textbox ), and its important that it would also search in all sub folders and see if there is a match to any of the names in the .txt file. And it shall not care about in what format the file is. It can be in .exe , .txt or any format.

I've done the downloading part but I can't seem to get the directory working. The directory is "special" E.G. Appdata Program Files etc., and well when I tried just using %appdata% it seemed to create a new directory NAMED %appdata% rather than actually goto appdata...

I have it set so when button3 is clicked that the listbox displays the textfiles in a designated folder.[code]Now what I would like to have happen is a way for: Selected listbox2.item (A.txt, B.txt, or C.txt) read the selected textfile into Textbox1.text(I want to click on A, B, or C and have it just open/read that textfile into the textbox.)I have a feeling this is something simple - but for some reason I am having trouble grasping it.

i'm developing an application that extracts all the icons of a .exe file or a .ico file. the ExtractAssociatedIcon in System.Drawing.Icon only do this for the first icon which is 16x16. I would be able to extract the other formats like 64x64 or 128x128. I know that there is a Windows API that may help me, but i don't know how to call its methods or even how to use that.

Im trying to extract predominately table data from a PDF file, however, I would also like the option to extract image files (such as graphs, etc) as well.Is it possible to extract data from PDF files using a VB.Net application? Im trying to get this process as automated as possible, so Im trying not to use 3rd party applications such as pdf file convertors or in-line pdf readers.
Are there any free, or relatively cheap PDF data capture API's/code snipets that I can use to import data from a PDF file? Another option is to export PDF data/images into an excel spreadsheet. Is there a .Net tool that will allow this?

I am using a webbrowser control, which is used for both internet and folder exploring. How can I determine when viewing files on the local directory, which file is selected?
I ran across something in my searches saying there was a property under the webbrowser.document called SelectedItem. But this must not be in 2008.

My application creates a file by writing to System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory() & "data/" & filename...Now this works fine usually, but I just added a setup utility to the app, so now it installs to the program files directory. It installs correctly and creates the data folder, however when it tries to write the file it gets an exception "unauthorized access".

I'm trying to identify a specific string within a text file, and then extra a couple of bits of information that follow from that.
Example snippet from text file:
>Date 5.3: Tech Manual {30201}
Freya Plumes (30201) - 1
mu
These are made from brightly coloured. I want to be able to find where it says "Tech Manual", and then assign "Freya Plumes", "30201" and "1" to variables for manipulating and exporting to another file. There will be many instances from the same text file with similar information, so I'd need the extracted strings popped into an array for later referencing.
