View 5 RepliesHow To Make Program Default For File
Mar 31, 2010How do I make a program a default program for a file? As in if I had just a basic .txt file editor, I could make the program the default program for the extension .txt. I have tried just doing it in Default Programs, in Windows 7, and Windows XP. But when you click on the file it opens the program, but does not load the file.

View 17 RepliesLoop To Make Default Name For File Before Saving?
Nov 29, 2011I am creating a button to save text files (Visual Basic 2005 and Windows XP). I made the following loop to give a default name for the file before saving:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'This loop is supposed to name the file "file10.txt", and if such a file exists it is
supposed to name it "file20.txt" then "file30.txt" etc.
Dim myFileName As String
Dim i As Integer = 10
myFileName = "D:filesfile" & i & ".txt"[code].....
However, the app gets unresponsive only after one round in the loop (when the file name is "file20"). The loop gets stuck at the following line:
If IO.File.Exists(myFileName) = True Then
This line works only once and after that it becomes unresponsive.

Way To Make File Path 'relative'
Aug 17, 2009I have a form with a tabbed control on it. Each tab in the control simply loads an existing file in a reader to display to the user. I have added the files in a folder in my project. When I debug it works great. However, when I publish and move it to another computer, the program runs fine but none of the files show in the tab control tabs. The files do come with the solution when I publish.[code]I know there is a way to make the file path "relative" but I cannot figure out how and there really isn't many resources available to explain how this can be done.
