I created a very simple program that organizes my various document and opens them when the button is clicked inside the program with the process.start method. The problem is that when i take the executable file and move it to another machine or cd to run the program the process.start filepath is no longer valid.

I have a folder that contains multiple word documents. I need to monitor this folder for any changes in these word documents. I am facing the following problems.
File system watcher never reports the exact name of file being changed. For example for file abc.doc, it reports "~$abc.doc is changed" on first save.For all subsequent saves to that file, OnChanged event in the following code is not called. When I changed the filter to watcher.Filter = ".", I found that for subsequent saves, it reports "~WRL0001.tmp is changed".
So the bottom line is that I never know the exact name of the file changed.[code]...
Is it possible to build a search engine to use on a DVD that contains Word documents, text documents, etc.? Say I wanted to find all documents with the name "James" in them. In the search box I would type "James", and it would return the results of everywhere James is found. Or suppose I wanted to find all Land Deeds where James is found, is that possible? All search engine examples that I have seen on VB Help has to do with databases, and I guess to an extent, my DVD would be the database.

I'm reading a text doc from my hard drive. I'm reading it via a stream reader.
On a button click i'm reading it again, because the contence of the text doc may have been updated, what I want to do is show in one textbox the actual file and in another one just what is new. How can I compare them?
This is the MSDN example for handling the BeginReceive callback.BeginReceive is called over and over until no more data is available, i.e. EndReceive returns 0. However I am finding that the callback is only fired when there is data available.
I'm guessing that the example is simply wrong or refers to expected behaviour in a previous version of .NET, although it says it is for 3.5.So how do I ensure I have received all of the available data?

View 8 RepliesThe following code allows words to be added to a listbox. Add the word to a text file and create a folder with the word as its name. The second part undoes the actions.If I try to delete the word immediately after adding it one of two things happen.
1.An error is reported stating the path cannot be found. Although the listbox index value is correct according to the code the error is pointing at that index +1.
2.The code continues to the point of requesting conformation to delete the folder, still pointing at the index value +1. I the action is confirmed the wrong folder is deleted.
However if I stop debugging, then run the code again all works correctly.Is it likely to persist when the application is compiled?

I m new in programming and Im trying step by step to build my first program. I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition with SP1. All I want to do is to give a button by pressing it, the ability to copy all the text from a word document into excel.
I'm using vb.net to check that certain Excel or Word documents exist in a folder.
EG
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyExcelFile.xls")
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyWordDoc.doc")
If the documents are created using Excel 97 or Word 97 the files are found. If the the documents are created using Excel 2007 or Word 2007 the files are not found.
I have checked the permissions between the two different versions and they appear to be the same.
why Dir dosen't work with Excel 2007 and Word 2007 files?
