View 11 RepliesI need to change my .exe's icon easily without having to rebuild it unless I can compile my code AND change exe through command line.
Reason for needing to change exe is for a small game creator so everyone doesn't have same exe.
I've just changed the Icon for my application in the project->Properties->Application tab. However when running it's still the old (small) icon in the taskbar. How is this changed?
View 4 RepliesI am having a problem trying to change a wpf application's folderbrowserdialog to an openfiledialog. The original application works fine and displays all the mp3 in the selected folder on the listview as intended. The problem occurs when I change the code to use an openfiledialog in order to select specific files, the mp3's do not show up in the listview, nor does the context show up in the status bar as the original program did. I have tried writing a test program which only includes a listview, button, and an openfiledialog and it works fine until I try to insert the test code into the original code.
Here is the original code:
Imports System.Text
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Globalization

I have files that start with unique numbers and are word documents. Say the document starts with "1234567" is there a way to make the OpenFileDialog filter to where only all the .doc files that start with "1234567" show up?

View 15 RepliesI'm trying to change the default icon of my program to something else. Specifcally, the one that is associated with the executable file.I was under the impression that if you set the icon property on the main form, that it will carry over to everything else. when I try to set the icon, I get an error message stating that "The arugment 'picture' must be a picture that can be used as an icon. I have a 32x32 icon that is saves as .ico but it doesn't work.

View 14 Repliesok, So I can call on the open file Dialog so it can be used. The problem comes when I want to put it to actual use. The idea is that the user pics an image from there "directory" and then it displays in an image box (which is already there) so, how would I use the open file dialog to locate the image and then display it in the image box?

With many of the programs that I use, I have noticed that the file dialog boxes automatically enter a new folder (if I create a folder thru the dialog box). But my OpenFileDialog boxes don't do that in my programs.When I open the OpenFileDialog and press the New Folder button, the box stays in the current directory and I am forced to click into the new folder. I have researched the OpernFileDialog and I don't understand how to change this behavior. I want to eliminate this extra click to enter the new folder.
View 7 RepliesIf I am in Word and I say File Open, it displays files of type All Files. If I have a Compressed Folder in the current location, I can right click on that folder and Extract All. Then if I extracted a filetype that Word can read, I can click on the file I just extracted and opened this is Word. All from saying File Open. I want to replicate this behavior in my .NET code. Maybe I am missing a property when I create my OpenFileDialog, but if I right click on the same file as above, I do not get a context menu that will let me Extract All.
This is my .NET
Dim dlgZipFile As New OpenFileDialog
dlgZipFile.Title = "Please navigate to the location of the input file"
dlgZipFile.InitialDirectory = "C:ProjectsFiles"
dlgZipFile.Filter = "All Files (*.*)|*.*"
dlgZipFile.FileName = ""
If dlgZipFile.ShowDialog <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then Return False
How would I get the filename from OpenFileDialog and put it in TextBox? I dont want the full path.

View 6 RepliesI want my user to only be able to open files in the initial directory that I set on OpenFileDialog. I have googled a bit and found you cannot restrict, but that was information from a few years ago and I'm not sure what version. Has this control changed at all in VS 2008?
My application is handling it okay if the user does navigate out, but it would be more concise if I could prevent him from doing so in the first place. And the fact that I have found others who wanted to do this also, makes me think it might be a nice property to have built in.
The problem I am running into is the OpenFileDialog box. I am allowing the user to pick an image and I want to save the image location into a column in the database(this isn't the problem), I know how to get the image location and save it...The main problem is this. Each time I open up the "OpenFileDialog box" and choose an image, it remembers the last location used, but after the image is chosen, the program looks at the images location as the spot the database is...To sum this up: Each time I use the "OpenFileDialog" and choose an image, the program looks at the images location for the database instead of in the "Debug folder" (which is were I put the database) So i end up getting an error that it can't find the database. Everything usually worked fine until I used the "OpenFileDialog"...

View 5 RepliesThis is my code at the moment. I want the TextBox to show the Directory of the file. (C:Documents and SettingsUserDesktopFile)
This is my TextBox Code
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
Me.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
End Sub
This is my Button Code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
End Sub
Let's say, when you click a button it just opens a specified .txt file and adds the data of it to a listbox. I mean automatically, without that file opening dialog showing?
