VS 2008 Newly Created File Has Older Date??
Apr 9, 2009
I have encountered a wierd problem, and I'm unsure if this behaviour is caused by my code or by Windows itself... I can't make any sense of it! Basically, I have written an automated backup system for a text editor. It should save up to 5 backups for each filename, each in a 'AutoBackup<filename><filename>_<number>.bak' format. Here, <filename> is simply the name of the file my program is backing up, and <number> is the first 'free' number. So if the backups are "Test_1, Test_2, Test_4, Test_5", the next backup will be called "Test_3" (since 3 was 'missing'). When there are more than 5 backups, I want my code to delete the oldest files until there are again 5 backups left. I am using the following code for this:
vb.net
'Backup doc.SaveFile(path & "" & filename & "_" & newNum & ".bak") 'If more than max files, delete oldest Do While numOfFiles > maxBackups Dim d As Date Dim maxDate As Date = Date.MaxValue Dim oldestFile As String =
[code].....
Then, after another backup, Test_1.bak is again deleted!I thought this was pretty weird so I had a look at the files in windows explorer, taking a good notice of the creation date... That's when I saw that after Test_1.bak is created a second time (after a file named Test_1.bak was deleted), it carries the same creation date/time as the old (deleted) Test_1.bak..So my code still sees it as the oldest file (while it is actually the newest) and deletes it...

I have this program:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
IO.File.Create("C: ext.txt")
[Code]....
How to make my program not to use the newly created file 'text.txt'? Notepad fails to open it, it says (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process).

I wrote a program that writes to a new created file a line of text. Anytime I try to open the new created file, I see a dialog box titled "Inconsistent Line Ending". I do understand why I receive this message. I wrote this program in VB.NET.

I wanted to simply on click a button to add those newly created textboxes to an array of textboxes. Starting with those labeled "Address". But I am finding this very difficult. I am able to add those originally on the form into the array very easily. But am unable to add the newly created textboxes into the array.
Here is my code so far below.
Public Class Form1
Dim MyBoxes() As TextBox = {Address, UserName, Password}
Dim Numbox As Integer = 1

I currently have a JSTree all set up to do the creation and renaming of a new node:[code]The problem is that my success doesn't seem to get hit when I return an integer ID on the create node, thus I can't set it to a global variable. What exactly do I need to return in the function to get back the ID from the server? I'm simply returning a new integer right now.

Im curently writing an app for windows mobile (so its using the compact .net framework)It has a loop which finds out how many images are in a folder, makes a picturebox for each one, then sets the .image property to the appropriate image. It also adds the name, size, location etc.What I dont know how to do is add a mouseclick event to it?I probably would have a subroutine already written in the code which could be used, or would it have to be a new one made for each picturebox?

I have a Private Sub that I execute whenever a user clicks one of two or three things, and in it I create a new tab in my TabControl. Once the new tab has been created, I select it then add a formatted textbox to it. However, it is not selecting the new tab and therefore only adding the rich text box into the already selected tab (not displayed, of course, because it has a dock style of Fill.) Here iis my code to select the new tab and format / edit the rich text box:
Try
tabMain.SelectedTab = tabMain.TabPages.Item(intTabIndex) 'Select the new tab
AddHandler rtbCode.TextChanged, AddressOf DisplayUpdate 'Add TextChanged event to handle updates
[Code]....

I've read about @@Identity. I've also read that it's no longer supported. I get lost in the mountains of data searching provides.I'd like to get the "ID" field, which is an AutoNumber Primary Key field, when I insert a new record. There's got to be a simple way.

I have an application that runs, scans a webpage for links to PDF files, and downloads those files (using WebResponse). I want to modify it so that it ONLY downloads the file IF it has been changed since my program ran last. So, given that I have the file name:

How can I determine the creation and last modified date of that file? Preferably WITHOUT downloading the file, of course.
