source code above is a part of my wordpad's source code. in my wordpad,why SAVE menu(SaveToolStripMenu) is function like a SAVE AS menu?
for example:i save a RTF file in my PC.and then i open it with my wordpad and edit that file.when i click SAVE menu,why this wordpad command me to save this file?I think this file is saved before.
i need to start my project in vb by open a file in wordpad(named aaa).after do some operation onto the file,i have to save my file as text doc (named bbb).When i open my saved file in wordpad,it will show the pattern of data in circle pattern.but when i open in notepad,the file doesnt show the circle patten as i desired.how can i write the codes in vb so that the opened file(bbb) will shows data in circle pattern in both wordpad and notepad?Do i need to edit the part of savefile.filter in my codes?
Dim savefile As New SaveFileDialog
savefile.FileName = ""
savefile.Filter = "Text files(*.txt)|*.txt|File(*)|*|All Files(*.*)|*.*)"
savefile.Title = "SAVE FILE."
[code]....
so i have a quite huge program. but lets say i have one label. and i want to save that. i have the code and everything for saving the text of the label. now i want to assign ctrl+s to automatically save the labels text once pressed instead of going through a menu to choose save.this is like a regular texteditor where u press ctrl+s and it saves.
ive used this
If (e.KeyCode = e.Control & Keys.S) Then
MessageBox.Show("Ctrl+S pressed")
End If
and
[code]....
but it doesn't do anything once pressed.im also using the keydown declaration for the form.
The project I'm developing at the moment requires RTF (rich text format) support and a full WUSIYUG editor, however I am very short on time so I'd like to consider an alternative. Instead of designing a new interface and creating buttons and toolbars and everything from scratch, I'd like to use WordPad to create the RTF documents and a RichTextBox to show them in-application.My idea was as follows:When the user needs to create a new document (once the document has been created, it will remain read-only), the application would launch WordPad via Process.Start and then it will wait until it exits. I think I can manage it up to here.Next, the user would save the file and the file's location should be sent to the application. If possible, I'd like to be able to retrieve the saved file's location automatically via code, or at least choose the preferred path (the directory which appears first when you save a file).
If retrieval of the saved file's location is not possible, then I was considering using SetCurrentDirectory to set the preferred path to a certain folder, instructing the user to save the file there under any name and then comparing the files in that folder with a previously created list to see which file was added. For obvious reasons, I'd prefer this method to stay a last resort

source above is parts of my source code.i'm learning to make a simple wordpad.when i edit some text in RTF file and then i choose SAVE,why command to save my file to computer appear(like SAVE AS in Microsoft Word)? i think i have saved my file in computer before that.
I am writing a text editor program and I have written the new, open, save as, exit menu items but I am struggling with writing the save option.Now I have created the menu itself (well vb did, I just used insert standard items) but how do I code up the save menu option so that it updates the current document or if the documnt has not yet been saved bring up the save file dialog.Here is the code I have so far

I know I have some finishing touches such as messages and error handling and stuff but at the moment I want to get all the basics working,I think the save menu option is all I am struggling with at the moment.

I have a subroutine that needs to accomplish the following things:
1. Open wordpad (wordpad.exe) - so the user can see the file being written to for printing purposes.
2. Create wordpad file (Sample.wri)
3. Write various text to Sample.wri (in the wordpad window that opened) using Streamwriter. Again, this is for printing purposes.
The code below is the start of the subroutine. As it is written, Wordpad does start, and Sample.wri is created. But the streamwriter DOES NOT write the "does this work?" text to the file created, nor does it display in the window that opened when wordpad process started. I'm new to using streamwriter so I'm sure I've overlooked something simple. The start of my subroutine is below:

So whats happening is that it opens the dialog ok, saves the document to my chosen location correctly, but opens a new document and gives the new document my chosen file name and leaves my saved document with the file name New Document.But when I close all the open screens and then re-open my saved document its all as it should be.

I have a question regarding waiting for closing a window or changing focus back to my app. What i have is an app that creates a few tables, that then puts the tables into a temp file that wordpad opens for the user to check they are correct, this is where i need help, i would like to now wordpad is open wait until the user closes wordpad or changes the focus away from wordpad until i open the next form which is responsible for using the tables and converting them into xml.
Which event should i look at using that fires when a program is exited or gets focus?

I have researched the net, youtube, and the msdn DB, and still can not find the working answer I am looking for. I would like someone to show me how you would save the contents of "Listbox1" to a .txt file using the "Save As" Option. I know how to hardcode a savepoint in, but since there will be multiple users I would like the option to be up to the end-user.

But there is no command in the File menu to do it. If I just copy my project folder to a new folder and give it a different name, vb gives me a headache with heaps of errors I don't understand.Maybe "Save as..." is in the commercial versions of VB?
