VS 2008 : Proc.MainModule.FileName Has Repeated File Path
Dec 25, 2009
in my program, i use that code for getting the file path of a process, once it gets the path, it is put into a list view which has details like the task manager. the code works fine the first time, but with a little bug that is, when it reaches the vhost of my program. For some reason, it just copies the file path of my program even though the process has changed. After the code has gone through, i want it to refresh the list so as doing the same as when loaded...so I let it refresh and once again it copies the path of the vhost, but this time it has basically taken over every process' location. So in turn, I only get returned my programs location, for something like the task managers location, where it would be like "C:Windowssystem32skmgr.exe"
Here's the
VB
Private Sub frmmain_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim Process As New Process()
Dim Count As Integer = 0
[code]....
The refresh code is frmmain_Load(Nothing, Nothing) just to make things easy for me right now, while i get that part of the program going. To me it seems to be working fine, but why it does that what it does, im not sure. as you can see, the process changes. and Ive even checked it through run time, and each and every time, the process.processname changes.

I have searched google with this error in relation to Process.MainModule.FileName however none link with the error message, "Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed".There however was one thread on these forums suggest a 64 bit issue however that was soon excluded as it was reported also in a 32 bit enviroment. The marked answer to that thread suggested it is a security problem however I don't think anything has been changed in relation to that comapred to a 'clean' project.
"If it is a security problem, you may try to run your application under the debugger" Process.MainModule failure I am in-fact debugging this application through Visual Studio so I am not quite sure what to do next in the process of diagnosing this problem. I am debugging using 32 bit in a 64 bit enviroment because of DirectX compatability issues?

I need to sort an array. I need the most repeated strings at the start and the least repeated at the end. Any easy way to do this? My brain is currently fried

How would I do that? Sample code is below that demonstrated that the file I opened contained the full path and file name.
I want to extract just the path and serialize that to the user.config file as a UserSetting value. Then next time the user opens the dialog box, it uses that saved path string to go immediately to the location previously used.
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Properties.Settings.Default.persistConnectionType = openFileDialog1.FileName
Properties.Settings.Default.Save();

I got an easy one this time How can I get a file knowing the path and the name of it, but not knowing the extension which I need to get. You can see at the moment I use this silly code which finds and opens some main filetypes for me, but if I could get hold of the file extension just by using the filename and the path I could open any document or image...

I suppose technically this isn't .NET specific but I suspect this is something to do with the registry and I'm using .NET!I'm trying to find out how to get the fully qualified path relating to a file type.For example, the system knows that to open a PDF file it needs to launch C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Reader 10.0Readeracrord32.exe
I've had a good long search through the registry and found a lot of references to the adobe path probably too many - and I've edited them to try and "break" the process so I can identify which one is used to discover the path but with no luck. I'm assuming this has something to do with HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT?

How can I remove the actual file name from the path returned by the FileName property of an Open or Save File Dialog?
All I want is the path to the file without the file name.

I am trying to replace a string which is actually different from line to line in a text file. I want to end up with a filename but without the path. For example:
My text file contains:
C: est estingmorefilename.mpg

W: estinglocation estingmore estfiles9.mpg

I would like to use a SaveFileDialog to retrieve a path and filename.
Like for example: You choose a saving location and filename in the SaveFileDialog, and then when you press save the path and filename will be put in to a string as such: C:Folderfilename.txt

Quick query...I'm trying to scan a long string and return any values that occur between the tags <FileName> and </FileName> I've got a bit of code here to use regular expressions to return the position of the occurunces of both substrings..Just wanted to find out if there is any way to scan for both substrings within one loop (as im currently doing 2, one for the first substring and one for the 2nd) so I can use something along these lines:
ringlist = Mid(XMLRESP, (startloc + 1), (endloc - 1))
MsgBox(ringlist)
to msg box the value between the substrings...either that or another approach to return the value between the 2 substrings (it can be of variable length)
Dim patternstart As String = "<FileName>"
Dim patternend As String = "</FileName>"
Dim matchesstart As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(XMLRESP, patternstart)

I am trying to trim the path from a filename. With the following code, it returns "My Documents" where I should be getting "Test.txt". if I change the 1 to a 4 I get what I'm looking for, but that's not going to work if I'm working with a file deeper into subdirectories. I need it to display the name of the file regardless of location or file type.

Using vb.net 2008 I have a form with a PDFViewer control. I pass the filename and path to open the pdf. When the form is closed, AcroRd32.exe is not destroyed. It remains in Task Manager even after I've completely closed the application. The more pdf files I open, the more memory used. How can I destroy? I've tried setting the control = nothing, ctrl.dispose but neither is working. What am I doing wrong?

This is the code I have set up to scan a directory of files:
Dim fileArray() As String
fileArray = Directory.GetFiles(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory & "help")
And it successfully gets all files in the directory, but it gets their absolute paths as well. For example, one of the entries in fileArray() is:
F:ProjectProjectinx86Debughelpook_troubleshoot.html
And I want it to just be:
book_troubleshoot.html
Is there a way to do this without parsing through all the array entries to trim off the path?

I am a new developer in general and decided on VB.NET for my first language. So, I decided that I should write a basic FTP client since the types of apps I plan on developing later on will incorporate file transfer. I imported the chilkat dll as a reference to my project since the FTP seems to work great. Anyhow, I've designed my program with separate interfaces for sending and getting files (see attached screenshot).
The problem here is that I use an openfiledialogbox to select the local file to transfer to an FTP server which this populates the textbox with "C: ext.txt", but chilkat wants the filename without the C:, or I receive an prohibited file name error when executing the send button. So basically I just need a way to store the filename text.txt without the C: extension so I can specify THAT name as the "remotefilename" which Chilkat will understand. The way I'd really like to do it is to have my send button remove the C: from the existing textbox and just leave the filename there - that would be fine.
I tried to research this and found that the path.Getfilename may be used for this, but I'm not totally sure how i should go about it. Here is the code of the Send button for my FTP Program so far. *By the way, this program works 100% if i just create another textbox, take the filename "test.text" and reference that as the remotefilename.

I am looking for an advise on how to find out the extension of the file only knowing the name and the location of it. I tried getextension method and some other but they don't seem to do anything to me.
E.G.:
Dim FileFullPath As String = "\SERVERPublicCRM_LibraryOrderMGMLetters" & datagridLetters.CurrentRow.Cells.Item(0).Value.ToString() & ".pdf"

I am developing an ASPX file that returns results from a SQL stored proc into a data adapter, which is then displayed in a GridView. But the problem is that the numbers do not match between the SQL stored proc and Gridview. They are close, but are off just slightly: 3 thousandths. So the SQL Stored proc gives me 0.199, but in Gridview this same value = .203. And it doesn't appear to be a rounding issue either. Also, I looked at the Gridview properties, but I didn't see anything that would be causing this. All of the values for this one column are off by the same margin.
What troubleshooting steps can u recommend? I am using VB in a VS 2008 Shell for SSRS, SSIS. Here is my code from the main ASPX file:
<%@ Page Language="VB" Debug="true" Src="../Global.vb"%>
<%@ Import Namespace="ChartDirector" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
[CODE]..................
And portions of the global.vb file:
Namespace GlobalFunctions
Public Class GlobalF
[CODE]................
I would like to debug this, but this is the shell and so I don't seem to have the debug options. I can set breakpoints, but all of the Debug functionality is greyed out. This may be because I can only create SSAS/SSIS/SSRS projects

Multi-Threading. I have got a simple bit of code that will need to be repeated but with a chance of it overlapping the only complex bit is there will be a varible that will be different each time. so I was wondering if I put it in another Thread and store the varible within the thread code would that achieve what I am looking for? To make it slightly easyier once the thread is started and pulled the Varible in there will be no cross talking between the thread and main app thread (ie no progress reports, no aborts/suspends etc) Nothing will be feeding back on thread completion either, when it ends it ends.
This is what I have so far:
