Feb 13, 2011In my application I play sound files that are located in a folder on my computer's desktop.

Discover The User's Desktop Folder?
Jun 24, 2011I'm making a little application in visual studio which loads a ROM in an emulator. I have two emulators and 20 ROMs.I made a form and added a few buttons. When you click the Button it opens a new form and closes the old one. Then on the new form I have four buttons: each one loads a different ROM in an emulator. So when you press Button1 this code is triggered:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles yellow.Click
Shell("C:UsersshiftyDesktoppokemon gamesEmulatorVBAVisualBoyAdvance.exe ""C:UsersshiftyDesktoppokemon gamesRomsYellowPokemon Yellow.gb""", vbNormalFocus)
End Sub
It works fine - I click it and it loads the game in the emulator. The bit im having trouble with is the file paths. If I send this application to a friend, it would still look for "C:UsersshiftyDesktop" - but that's on my computer, not his.Is there a way to make the application look for the file on his computer (without changing the file path to (C:Users""his user name""Desktop))

VS 2008 Create 1 Folder For Every Item On A Listbox?
May 21, 2010i have a list box which is populated with the sub folders from a user selected folder, so the listbox item count varies from 2 item to 1000 items etc.The list box code i use to do this is:
Dim lb1s As String = Form1.Folder.SelectedPath
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(lb1s)
Dim mydirInfoArray As IO.DirectoryInfo() = di.GetDirectories
Im trying to make a feature were on a button click the app will create 1 folder for every item on the listbox (named after the list box item)So if theres 3 items on the list box for example:
001
002
band 3
[code]....
And when the user presses the button, the app will create 3 dupe folders (Only the folders, not the contents) in a user selected directory using the same names, ive been tinkering for a little while but cant seem to figure out a way to implement this.
