View 6 RepliesHow To Copy/move A File (image,accdb,...) Out Of Resources
May 12, 2012I am making a VB.NET application linked to a database. when you press the button 'generate' it is writes (fairly simple) webpages to a folder in your destkop. what I tried was adding a build-in uploader to my website, but my host didn't supported that. ok, not that big of a deal, and completely out of context but now let's get to the core of my problem;
I wanted to have an image in the resources (none made yet) and have it copied out the resources and placed along with the webpages (to use it as background image). I have tried a lot (clearly not everything or it would work) but I just don't manage to solve this. the problem is I need to be able to do this, since I want to have my .accdb in the resources to, so that it copies out when used an writes (an updated version) back to the resources and deletes the external file. but I never seem to manage to do this. I tried to read,write and other things it with IO and everything, just getting the message that it cannot be read. but I never seem to find how to copy/move it outside the program. the code I am using now looks like this:
Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.IO 'this is for the writing of the .HTML files
Imports System
Public Class webGenerator

Move / Copy Image From Resources To Path?
Sep 9, 2010I'm trying to copy/move (whichever works in the end) a picture from my resources in my program, to the startup path.
However, when i try it, it tells me that the file could not be found.
System.IO.File.Copy(My.Resources.Image, PATH, False)That will turn up with an error telling me that the value of type Bitmap cannot be converted to string. So i figured i would try to put a .ToString behind it, and then i'll get the File Not Found error.
VS 2008 Extracting A File From Resources?
Dec 21, 2010I have a program made in VB that on a button click extracts a exe file from its resources to the HDD then runs the program and deletes it after it closes. I first used the desktop to extract the file to, but seeing as I need to use this program on several computers the account names will be different so this is of no use. I've tried using C: but access is denied.

Vb 2008 Express - My.resources Won't Work - Error Saying The File Does Not Exist
Jun 19, 2011I have been able to use my.resources perfectly, no problems at all. all of a sudden, i try to use resource (i have done EVERYTHING EXACTLY the same as the way i have been using for the last 1 and a half years) and i get an error saying the file does not exist. its there, i only need to type my.resources.s and it already selected the resource i want. it says the file doesn't exist. why? also, the resource is called settings.dat. could that be the problem, don't think it is. i even tried a picture, but it still says the file doesn't exist.
It says: Could not find file 'C:Users[username removed]DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsdiskSaverdiskSaverinDebugSystem.Byte[]'.
I worked out a way around it (i worked out how to use my.settings in stead), but i haven't worked out why my.resources won't work.

View 4 RepliesVS 2008 : Move File Not Working?
Sep 9, 2009How can I get the file NAME from the OpenFileDialog and make the Browse folder dialog to have the File NAME at the end of the folder destination?
1. I press "Browse for File"
2. I press "Browse for Folder"
3. After the directory for Browse for folder is shown, it will also include the file name taken from "Browse for file". I dont want it to replace the destination, but to add the File NAME to the folder destination.For example
"Browse for File" gives me the destination, C:Documents and SettingsOwnerDesktopFile.txt
"Browse for Folder" gives me C:Documents and SettingsOwnerDesktopNew Folder (3)
I want the File.txt text COPIED from "Browse for File" and PASTED on to the Destination of "Browse for Folder"
VS 2008 - Multiple File Move Via DragAndDrop
Jun 30, 2009I'm going to try this again since last time I asked (a long time ago now) I didn't get many responses. Maybe someone who knew didn't see my post or maybe someone new is around who might know. I want to add a file drag and drop feature to my program that allows people to drag files onto my form and when the files are released on a path (that is stored in a listbox) it moves/copies the files to that folder. I have all that working but what my issue is that each file has to be handled individually.
Now, Windows can move multiple files all in a single group; it calculates time till completion based on the cumulative size of all the files and shows a progress bar in that way. Currently, all I can do is either let it happen, or show a progress bar for each file. Does anyone know how to get files in an array of files to drop to display like Windows does with multiple files when moving or copying.

Jun 15, 2009For the last two days or so, I've been trying to get a program to compile another program that will extract a series of files and run them in a given order, like a self extracting zip archive.The program compiles fine and compiles sub programs, but I am unable to go about correctly embedding the resources.The output program shows the large amount of data ( ~12mb from the file I've been embedding to test ), and there are no compile errors.However, I cannot get it to access the resources correctly. It will either result in a compile error about the resource image not being valid / containing any resources, or a friendly "System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException" being thrown.
