View 5 RepliesI am programming using VB-2005 on a Vista Based machine. I am trying programmatically to open a PDF file that is Password Protected. I have worked out the steps required to open a non-protected PDF. Adobe tells me that it is not possible to pass a password to the PDF using the objects that come with the PDF Control. My question is can this be done in some other way, e.g. with WinExist etc.? Is WinExist and other such commands even available in Visual Basic?

I'm having a slight problem getting my program to load a save file when double clicking the save file.I'm using the Command$() to get the command line argument. I can open a save file by dragging it onto the exe. But not by double clicking the save file (after it's associated with the exe).I though dragging and dropping a file on a program and double clicking the file would open it in the same way, but I guess not.So in short how does file association work and how do I get the file path set to a var when the program loads.

View 2 RepliesHow to open a file from the harddrive that I just made through VB. I open/read a file > analysis it > Create new file and put info into new file > msgbox "Would you like to open the file you just created? [yes][No]" > if yes then open file to new window.
-Here is the Msgbox
If MsgBox("Your file has been created in the location of your choice," & _
" Would you like to open your file?", _
MsgBoxStyle.YesNo Or MsgBoxStyle.DefaultButton1, "Complete") = vbYes Then
Else
MessageBox.Show("Goodbye", "Complete")
End If

View 2 RepliesI'm working with windows forms application in vb.net 2008 express ed. I used openfiledialog to open all types of files in the computer. When I searched on the web I found out to use the web browser control so I used it and it did open a file in any types. I realized about using a web browser control to open a file that all images such as jpeg, gif, and bmp as well as text files are just being opened or browsed within the control. All I want to do and all I want to know is I want to open all the files separately from the control just like opening with excel, word and all types of video files which will be opened separately from the control and your application because I am hiding the web browser within the form since this is a winform application. If this possible, How would I do that? I would like also to know if there's any way to open a file without using a web browser control? If there's no way, I just want to know how to modify my codes by throwing a message box if the user attempts to open a text files and images.

I have a program that can save user's input into a text file and load it back, but whenever I try to open the file and exit without selecting the file I get an error.(if i select the file and open it i don't get any errors).

OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Text Files ONLY (*.txt) | *.txt"
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()

The error is :"FileNotFoundException was unhandled. Could not find file at xxx". also I would like to know how to make it so that the initial file name for file saving is today's date. I do not get any errors when I try to save the file.
I need to open an excel file from vb.net and then search it for specific data. I then need to take those data and insert them into text boxes on a form that i have created. This is all controlled by a button click. I already have some code that will open a file dialog box and let me navigate to the correct file, but I am having trouble with the search portion. I have tried the Find function but I am not sure of the proper syntax. I am using Visual Studio 2008 and Excel 2003.

I am using VB.net 2005 and I have a timer running on form1 that communicates modbus with a relay io board. There should be constant uninterrupted communication between the two devices and that is working until I open the data logging form2 and import data from a large sequential text file. While I am parsing data, the timer from form1 stops communicating with the modbus device. Once the data is done, the timer of form1 resumes communication with the modbus device. Is there some other method I could use to make sure the modbus communication is never interrupted.? Is there a command I can periodically run from form2 while the data is being parsed that will keep the timer on form1running?

View 2 RepliesMy application generates XLSX files based on a users requirements.
After the XLSX file is generated the user is redirected to where the file is saved using Response.Redirect...
Response.Redirect("filename.xlsx")
When the user then opens the file... they recieve this message.
The file you are trying to open, 'filename.xls', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?
As a temporary fix I've instructed my users to press "Yes" when they receive this message and the file opens perfectly fine.
Does anyone have any ideas why IE6 is trying to open an XLSX file as an XLS?
I am developing an Excel workbook at work and I've got a problem. I'd like to save information entered in the workbook and save it in another one (called List, for example purposes), using a macro. The problem is that the file in which I want to save the information is located on a server. When people open List.xls, it's Read Only. So, when my macro executes, it opens a Read Only workbook...I'd like to do "Open As", just like you could do by right-clicking on any file in Windows XP. The result would be that the macro would log on as administrator only to open List.xls, write in it and save it under the same name.
